Chapter 25 Self-deception, I will always believe her
"if not?"

He has always believed that children's talents are largely influenced by their parents' talents.

He has good talent and was able to become a Divine Knight. This is because both his parents are talented; his father is also a Divine Knight.

"how is this possible?"

"Talent, talent, is naturally innate."

"Bloodline is by no means the absolute factor affecting talent."

Feng Jing truly believes this.

In her understanding, the reason why there are many seemingly outstanding juniors in the families of those powerful people is that.

This is because in this world, the strong control more resources, which they can then distribute to their families.

To put it bluntly, talent is often built up by resources.

Feng Jing realized that her explanation hadn't convinced Long Xingyu. Instead of trying to persuade him, she presented the facts.

"Look at you, your talent isn't that great, and my sister is just an ordinary person who can't cultivate, as you say."

"But Xiao Chenchen, as your child, is a genius that is rare even in thousands of years."

Long Xingyu still didn't reply to her, but Feng Jing sensed a subtle change in his expression.

That extremely subtle change was brought about by a shift in mood, and Feng Jing almost thought he was wrong.

"What are you thinking?"

"You don't agree with what I said?"

After saying this, Feng Jing realized that he might actually be right.

You don't agree with what I said...

Which statement do you disagree with?

"You don't think the two of you can't have such a talented child, do you?"

I didn't even think before I blurted out those words; they just slipped out unconsciously.

"how come!"

Long Xingyu had already subconsciously refuted it.

He came to his senses and realized what Feng Jing had just said. Although he was annoyed that his thoughts had been exposed, he remained calm on the surface.

“Yue said that Haochen is my child, so he is my child.”

Long Xingyu has already made up his mind to accept Long Haochen as his child.

Regardless of whether Long Haochen is his child or not, he must be his child and call him "Dad".

After discovering Long Haochen's identity as the Child of Light, many ideas flashed through Long Xingyu's mind. Long Haochen, now, would be a very useful tool for him.

"I will never doubt Yue, I will always believe in her."

Long Xingyu said this to Feng Jing, but he was only saying it to himself.

Moreover, he then turned the tables and accused the perpetrator.

"Don't you trust your sister?"

Feng Jing: ...

She stared at Long Xingyu for a long time, and this time she was speechless. She was speechless because of Long Xingyu.

"Of course I believe my sister."

But I feel like you're lying.

Feng Jing, who had a gut feeling that Long Xingyu was lying, became even more resistant to him.

But she quickly restrained herself and didn't show it too obviously, because she didn't want to put Bai Yue in a difficult position.

The Assassin's Temple arrived much faster than Feng Jing had imagined.

Moreover, when Ying Suifeng came to pick him up, he did invite Feng Jing to participate in next year's Demon Hunter Team selection competition in the name of the Assassin's Temple.

"No, no, no."

Having already rejected one contestant, Feng Jing intended to continue rejecting others, giving similar reasons to Long Xingyu. After hearing that Feng Jing had no intention of participating, Ying Suifeng didn't press the matter further.

That's good. They don't have it in the Assassin's Temple, nor in any of the other temples.

"Cai'er, you should come back with me now."

Even as he said these words, Ying Suifeng felt a little reluctant.

Because he remembered that before he arrived, Sheng Cai'er was still laughing and playing around with Long Haochen.

As soon as he arrived, Saint Cher's smile vanished, and she reverted to her cold and aloof demeanor, keeping everyone at arm's length.

They didn't even acknowledge what I said.

Instead, she silently took Long Haochen's hand and hid with him in front of Feng Jing.

"Cai'er, don't be willful. The Palace Master is still waiting for you to return."

Although reluctant, Ying Suifeng knew his purpose. He was determined to bring Sheng Cai'er back today and would not allow Feng Jing to succeed in his sneak attack again.

Seeing his determination, Saint Cher finally walked silently to his side, exuding an icy aura.

"Little Chenchen".

Feng Jing called out to Long Haochen, who had just received a gift, and gestured to him.

Long Haochen immediately understood and shouted to Sheng Cai'er:
"Cai'er, next year, next year I'll go to the Assassin's Temple with my aunt to find you!"

"Don't forget me when the time comes!"

"Anyway, I definitely won't forget you."

Upon hearing that they would come looking for her, Saint Cher's eyes immediately lit up, and she nodded.

The light that suddenly burst into her life did not go out, and the painful and torturous cycle of trials and tribulations also gave her hope.

"You're taking him to the Assassin's Temple next year? But he's not like you; he's just one of my Knights' Temple members."

After Sheng Cai'er was taken away, Long Xingyu immediately questioned Feng Jing.

His reaction was actually a bit excessive.

After all, only he knew that Feng Jing's actions would ruin his plans.

But Feng Jing also had her own plans, and she didn't want to disrupt them, so she objected.

"What do you mean 'only people from your Knights' Temple'? Why are you making such a distinction now? Don't you always say that the Temple Alliance is one family, and the six major temples are inseparable?"

"So, I'm not only going to take him to the Assassin's Temple, but also to the Magic Temple and the Priest's Temple..."

Come with me to the six great temples.

Suddenly remembering what Feng Jing had been doing these past few years, Long Xingyu thought: ...You'd better really take him "to" all over the six holy temples.

Long Xingyu didn't know much about Feng Jing, the goddess of the alliance, only that she was known as a genius, a prodigy, who was only seen once in ten thousand years in human history.

I remember that she would only stay in a certain temple for a month each year.

During this period, you will continuously challenge all professionals of the same level. It can be said that you will continuously fight your way through the six holy temples, rather than simply visiting them.

"At his age and with his strength, it's a bit too early for him to challenge you."

"His strength is simply not enough. The other temples won't go easy on him. He could easily get injured. What if..."

Long Xingyu's words were directed at Bai Yue. He specifically mentioned "injured" in order to make Bai Yue feel sorry for him and thus stop him.

But Bai Yue did not receive his signal, and she thought it was nothing.

Feng Jing dared to run away from home at only five years old, and started venturing into the Holy Temple Alliance at six or seven. Long Haochen is already eight years old, and still a boy, so he's bound to be successful too.

"Auntie, will you let me get hurt?"

Long Haochen, eager to go out and explore the world, wouldn't listen to Long Xingyu's words and instead asked Feng Jing a question.

Before Feng Jing could speak, Long Haochen continued.

"Look, my aunt will protect me, so Dad, you can rest assured."

"Of course, I will also protect myself."

Long Xingyu: ...I can't rest easy at all.
