Chapter 231: Seeking the Tower of Aion

Precisely because she knew that this journey was dangerous, Cai'er would never let Xingyuan go on the adventure alone.

Especially when she felt that she was obviously more useful with Xingyuan than Captain Long next door.

"Miss Cai'er, there must be great danger hidden in this cave."

Long Haochen obviously didn't expect Cai'er to get involved in this operation, so he couldn't help but remind Cai'er.

"It's because I know there's danger inside that I want to go even more."

Cai Er said without giving in: "Besides, it is obvious that I am more useful to Xing Yuan than you."

"That may not be the case, Miss Cai'er."

If Cai'er was talking about her cultivation level, then Long Haochen really had no way to refute her. After all, it was a fact that he was not as skilled as others at the moment, and he was well aware of his current strength.

But if Cai'er felt that her presence by Xingyuan's side, accompanying him into the Howling Cave of Terror, was more effective than that of him, the Son of Light who had a natural restraint against undead creatures, then he would not be able to give in on this issue anymore.

"you?"

Cai'er looked at Long Haochen with some confusion, as if she was a little puzzled as to where the other party got his confidence from.

After all, just like Cai'er didn't know that Long Haochen's innate inner spiritual power value was above ninety and that he possessed the physique of a son of light, Long Haochen also didn't know that Cai'er was the Reincarnation Saint of their Assassin's Temple.

Although Xingyuan knew everything about the two of them, he would naturally not rashly reveal their secrets under the current circumstances.

But compared to Long Haochen, Cai'er's role in entering the Cave of Fear and Sorrow with him was indeed greater.

After all, Long Haochen's innate inner spiritual power was only over ninety points, while Cai'er, who inherited the mantle of the Son of Reincarnation, the predecessor of their Assassin's Temple, had an innate inner spiritual power value of one hundred, the full value, which was even a few points higher than his Xingyuan.

Of course, the most crucial factor is that Xingyuan wants to keep the Tower of Eternity below for himself and Caier.

After all, this concerns whether Cai'er can still be with him in the future. Even if the future Long Haochen needs this Eternal Tower so much, Xingyuan will not let the original story unfold here.

Just like Cai'er's world is only Xingyuan for her.

In Xingyuan's eyes, whether the humans of the Temple Alliance can win the final battle with the demons is not as important to him as Cai'er.

After all, his sense of belonging to the Holy Demon Continent and the Temple Alliance is limited.

If he had to choose, he would only protect the people he cared about.

……

The picture generated by the future vision ability is about to end after seeing the sharp roar coming from the cave.

Xingyuan also stepped forward to end the dispute between the two sides and said to Long Haochen: "Let Cai'er come."

"...Then if the three of us go down, what about the others?"

Since Xingyuan had spoken, Long Haochen, knowing that he was the one in charge of the two teams, had no way of objecting to Cai'er's request to follow him into the cave to explore.

However, the reason why he didn't agree with Cai'er to go into the Howling Cave with them was not only because of her personal safety, but also because he felt that if they went into the cave to explore, it would be more reassuring if Cai'er, a powerful fighter, was in charge of the team. After all, this was the territory of the demons, and they had encountered a demon team before. Who could guarantee that the people on guard outside would not encounter it again?

Long Haochen's starting point was actually good.

It’s a pity that he misunderstood Xingyuan’s meaning.

Xing Yuan's words just now did not mean that the two of them and Cai Er would explore the Cave of Fear and Sorrow together, but that Cai Er would replace Long Hao Chen, and he would be responsible for the vigilance and the work of the two...

Fortunately, there was no need for Xingyuan to make it clear himself. Cai'er took the initiative to say to him, "Then you stay here to take charge of the team and meet us later."

Cai'er never looked at anyone other than Xingyuan and her own team members in a good light, let alone Long Haochen who had just opposed her action with Xingyuan.

Not to mention a good expression, Cai'er even used an imperative tone when she spoke.

Long Haochen didn't react much to this.

After all, the two teams have been working together for such a long time, and he has more or less understood Cai'er's personality. He also knows how much the other party depends on Xingyuan. He wants to get rid of her and act alone with Xingyuan, which is undoubtedly stepping on the other party's minefield.

"Cai'er, we are still in a cooperative relationship now."

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right and the sharp howling coming from the Howling Cave of Fear was about to end, Xingyuan walked forward and pulled Cai'er behind him.

As expected, it would be better for him to have the conversation with Long Haochen.

"Haochen, I know your intentions are good."

Xing Yuan let out a long sigh and said, "I also know how to convince you, but this matter is related to the secrets of Cai'er and the Assassin's Temple, so the reason why I asked Cai'er to accompany me to explore this Cave of Fear and Sorrow can only be told to you alone."

Xingyuan’s meaning was very clear, that is, the next conversation between the two would be conducted through voice transmission.

"Brother Xingyuan, go ahead." Long Haochen was straightforward.

After all, for him, as long as the mission can be completed successfully and the teammates on both sides who stay behind are safe, that is enough.

As for why he wanted to go in and explore the cave with Xingyuan so much, it was not because he was worried that Xingyuan would embezzle the treasures that might be in the cave.

He must believe in Xingyuan.

It was just that he felt that the two teams had been working together for such a long time, and it seemed that Xingyuan had always been the one doing the hard work. He felt ashamed that he had done nothing and had been reaping the benefits...

Xing Yuan didn't think of Long Haochen in this direction. He just felt that Long Haochen had affected his plan to obtain the Tower of Eternity with Cai'er.

"Hao Chen, I know that your innate inner spiritual power is above ninety, and you are the Son of Light of your Knights Templar... You don't have to rush to deny it. My affinity for the holy light attribute is eighty-eight. According to what you say, it is called the Light Protection Constitution, right?
I can sense that your affinity for light elements is higher than mine, so I can easily guess this."

Since the conversation between the two was conducted through telepathy, Xingyuan's first statement was a powerful one.

"Although I am also confused as to why you don't know about Cai'er when your Knights Templar and Assassins Templar are clearly brother temples in the alliance." (End of this chapter)
