Chapter 62: Single Sword and Horse

  Time always passes quickly, and the three days were spent leisurely strolling in the park with Yishui. Unfortunately, this was just a blink of an eye, and there was no feeling at all. Reality is cruel, and things that had been discussed with Pope Guangming had to be carried out tonight. In Long Xing's mind, if he could take advantage of the chaos to get those two steel plates, it would be even better. This was Long Xing's greatest wish at the moment.

  Thinking of this, Long Xing smiled silently, and his smile was somewhat cruel. However, in Yishui's eyes, it should be another misunderstanding, as if every misunderstanding was a coincidence. This time, looking at the fact that they would attack the Dark Temple tonight, this guy still smiled so happily, he must be eager to eliminate the Dark Temple early. So is he going to avenge himself? With some doubts in mind, the two returned to the front of the Bright Temple's ancient castle.

  The entire ancient castle has been repainted and now looks brand new, with no signs of the carnage that took place three nights ago. However, a faint smell of blood still lingers in the air, suggesting that a lot of blood had seeped into the ground.

  Upon returning to the Bright Church, the Pope and his entourage had already made preparations for tonight's action. They were all dressed in white tight-fitting clothes. When they saw Long Xing approaching, the Pope smiled and handed him a set of black clothes and a dagger, asking him to change into them to facilitate their upcoming actions and as his personal weapon.

  Long Xing thought for a moment and understood the reason, this old fox seemed to be ready to take the lead again. It was clear that he was still as cunning as ever, but Long Xing didn't mind, after all, wearing black clothes might have its advantages. Looking at the Pope of Guangming, the two foxes, big and small, sneered again.

  Long walked out of the house, having changed into a black outfit. The dagger was nowhere to be seen, but Long couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing. He had been thinking that if the Temple of Light were to discover that one of their own was actually from the opposing camp, and that person believed they were from the Dark Temple, wouldn't his actions be justified? Thinking this, Long burst out laughing again.

  Long Xing glanced at Yishui and felt that she didn't need to change clothes, so he didn't continue to pay attention to Guangming Jiao Huang. He directly took Yishui towards the parking area. After walking a few steps, Long Xing felt that something was off again. He looked at Guangming Jiao Huang with some confusion, seeming not to understand what was going on. What else did this old fox want to avoid discussing with him?

  Soon after, the Pope of Light said a few words and then brought people to hurry over, distributed the number of people, got on a luxury carriage, and Long Xing pulled Yishui into the carriage.

  In the carriage, Long Xing was chatting with Pope Guangming, but he always felt that this action would be unusual, only he didn't know where the unusualness lay.

  Just as Long Xing and the Pope were sitting in the car heading towards the Dark Vatican, Long Teng appeared with his subordinates in New York City, led by Long Ji and Su Rui, who were searching for Long Xing all over the streets.

  Long Teng was humming on the edge, these two guys didn't know where Long Xing went at all, but they still found it so diligently, I really don't know what they were thinking, but Long Teng also had his own trick.

  The Dark Vatican headquarters, it seems that the Dark Pope also knows that if his headquarters does not gather more manpower to strengthen its defenses, the Vatican may be destroyed at any time. Therefore, the Pope even summoned all the elders of the Council to come out and defend the Vatican for one night, until tomorrow, perhaps there will be a chance to fight back. The Pope just thought that if the Vatican, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, is destroyed by himself, he would not have the face to go to hell after death. But then again, heaven wouldn't want him either, because that's the territory of the Light Vatican.

  The Dark Pope tried every means, used many connections, and finally calmed down the two previous attack incidents. He didn't want to be attacked again, at least not before receiving news of it. So naturally, the Dark Pope gathered all the high-ranking officials from the remaining branches together. He was preparing to discuss and muster his last bit of strength to launch a surprise attack on the Holy See of Light, making them too busy to pay attention to themselves. However, the Dark Pope had set the time for the attack as tomorrow, unaware that the Holy See of Light had actually scheduled it for tonight.

  Long Xing's stealth skills were top-notch, and he had already taken out several hidden guards on the way. Now, he stood in front of the ancient castle of the Dark Temple, thinking about hiding while secretly cursing that old fox. The guy never dared to take risks alone, and Long Xing didn't know how many people he had brought with him today or how many experts were among them. Based on the old fox's skills, he might be able to handle a few in a one-on-one fight, but in a group battle, he would likely be at a disadvantage. However, this was also good for Long Xing, as if the old fox died in battle, he would have a better chance of obtaining the steel plate.

  Still remember the Pope of Light had told himself that he hadn't discussed this matter with others yet, otherwise it wouldn't have been a small skirmish between him and the Dark Church, it should have erupted into a large-scale battle long ago. It's just that now is probably the time to attack the Dark Church.

  Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Long Xing quietly began to sneak towards the Dark Temple's headquarters. He arrived at the courtyard and with a swift motion, he pulled out the short blade given by the Pope of the Light Temple and inserted it into the wall. With a boost from the blade, he jumped into the courtyard. As soon as he entered, Long Xing was stunned.

  He looked ahead, somewhat regretting leaving Yishui outside. The ancient castle's courtyard had many objects that resembled mirrors, reflecting the light and shining towards him. It seemed they were specialized in countering Yishui's abilities. Behind the mirrors, he could clearly see many people standing guard behind each reflective surface. After Long Xing descended, this group of people emerged one after another, densely packed together. Based on Long Xing's estimation, there were at least over 200 people.

  Among these people, more than a dozen have seen Long Xing before, and there are even those who have seen him twice. To know that the first two times he was present at the scene of the attack, and one of them was even initiated by him personally. Thinking about it, everyone understood that this time, he must be here to launch another attack.

  So no one wasted words, everyone gathered around and launched an attack on Long Xing without saying a word. Long Xing didn't expect to be surrounded as soon as he entered, and without caring about anything else, he charged forward with his short blade, starting another ruthless slaughter of the Dark Cult followers.

  The swift slaughter shocked the upper echelons of the Dark Church, and the Pope stood atop the ancient castle, looking down with gritted teeth. This kid always appears at the most critical moments, and it's unknown what grudge he holds against the Dark Church. Every time he appears, the church loses some of its followers, which makes the Dark Pope both heartbroken and hateful towards him.

  The Yishui lurking on the periphery had never thought that Long Xing would be surrounded by the enemy as soon as he entered, and now she was urging the Pope of the Holy Church to order his men to go and rescue him. Unfortunately, all she got in response were "wait a bit" and "please wait". Infuriated, she could only stand guard on the periphery, but she had made up her mind that if she found Long Xing struggling even slightly later, she would personally go to support him. Cooperating with the Pope, this old fox, was undoubtedly like plotting with a tiger for its skin - it was just unclear whose hands the skin would ultimately fall into.

  At this moment, Long Di and Su Rui led the Dragon Teng and others to wander aimlessly on this street. Just now, Dragon Teng quietly instructed the Dog Team and Eagle Team brothers to disperse and search to see if they could find the Dragon Line.

  Just as Long Teng was anxiously pacing back and forth, Long Qi suddenly rushed over to his side: "Boss, my spiritual sense has detected a large number of people fighting desperately more than 100 miles away from here, including many ability users." After finishing speaking, Long Qi quietly retreated a few steps, knowing that once he had spoken, Long Teng would consider how to handle the situation on his own.

  As expected, it wasn't long before Long Teng gave the order and the entire team followed Long Qi as he led them in the direction where Long Xing was. Meanwhile, after asking Long Qi about Long Xing's approximate location, he grabbed Su Rui with one hand and pulled Long Ji with the other, and they flew into the sky together, heading in the direction that Long Qi had pointed out. However, Su Rui still had her inseparable backpack on her back, which seemed extremely precious to her. Of course, only Long Ji knew the reason behind this.

  Long Qi, on the other hand, led everyone to rush to the location of Long Xing, while also contacting the two groups that had gone out to investigate. He could only sense where there were large-scale battles and riots, but without the other two groups of brothers, this entire team would lose a lot of useful strength.

  Su Rui and Long Ji were pulled into the air by Long Teng, one hand each, at an altitude of thousands of meters. Both of them felt a bit unbelievable, after all, they had never seen or even heard of anyone flying with just human power before, it was so surreal and unrealistic.

  Long Teng's flight speed was very fast, almost catching up with the speed of an airplane. Gradually, several people felt the voices of struggle in the Dark Temple, and then Long Teng and his two companions stopped at the place where Long Xing had stayed with Yishui before, quietly watching the scene.

  Only now on the scene, Long Xing seems to have killed red eyes, his whole person moving at an extremely fast speed, basically just appearing behind one person, and then quickly flashing to another person's back, while the previous person after Long Xing appeared would not move again, afterwards the whole person was like being cut off at the waist, head and body separated, and Long Xing himself flashed with a speed that could be described as terrifying, very few people were able to touch him, only closely following behind him there was still a pink light shield, appearing and disappearing.

  Lying in ambush on the other side, Yi Shui always felt that something was not quite right inside. The speed of Long Xing's advance was getting faster and faster, and the number of people he killed was also increasing, but why hadn't the high-ranking officials of the Dark Temple appeared yet? And the old fox at the border was still so calm and composed, quietly waiting for something.

  At the same time as Yishui was preparing to go and rescue, she suddenly discovered that three people had fallen from high altitude in a place where she and Long Xing had once ambushed. When he found the three people, she seemed to realize something and quietly observed everything on the scene.
