The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 336: Chapter 283: Ancient Demon Dragon Victor (Part 2)

Don’t be fooled by their current numbers, with millions of soldiers facing just eight members of the Demon Race, but apart from him, there’s only this single battle strength in the Miracle World. The rest, even the powerful Eight Great Saint Emperors, serve more as a cheerleading squad, unable to help in an actual fight, instead requiring him to look out for them.

If it were just the Divine Protection Continent coalition and the Eight Great Saint Emperors, it wouldn’t be too bad, at worst they’d just fight to the death, damn it, and blow it with you.

However, his wife and children are also present. If a real fight breaks out, he may not be able to protect them.

Of course, even if a real fight breaks out, his wife and children won’t be in any danger, because on the opposite side among the eight demons, seven are his demon king wives. In a truly critical moment, they could all turn against and teach Victor a lesson.

This would expose his relationship with the demon king wives and might not even kill Victor since she is a real level 999 Near God. Back then, Lynn killed the Demon Dragon Emperor using the combined strength of all the elite players of "Miracle", and even then, it was with the Demon Dragon Emperor going easy.

So, unless absolutely necessary, he cannot expose his identity and team up with his demon king wives. Instead, he needs to consider how to deal with the demon king wives and Victor joining forces...

Oh, I’ve walked on thin ice my whole life, you say, how can I go... Gurgle Gurgle...

Cough cough, just kidding, I’m not what I used to be now.

"Demon Dragon Victor, I advise you to think carefully before you speak. If I, Lynn, can kill the Demon Dragon Emperor, I can also kill a Demon Dragon that’s not even a Demon Emperor! If you want to negotiate with me, first V me... no, ask my sword first!"

Lynn said to ask his sword, but turned his head and canceled the outfit appearance, revealing the shining Saint Emperor’s Armor. Then, under Victor’s watchful eye, he took out and equipped the Saint Emperor’s Ring from his backpack space, which he had not previously retrieved.

The three Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifacts complemented each other, and though not a complete set, they offered some additional synergy.

But this was not all; in the three days before marching to the Divine Protection Continent, Lynn wasn’t just enjoying family time in the day and bedroom bliss at night; he was doing serious work.

He took out a luxurious crown from his backpack and placed it on his head, followed by the Saint Emperor’s Chain, the Saint Emperor’s Bracelet, and the Saint Emperor’s Belt.

He had obtained all known Saint Emperor’s Divine Artifacts before setting off, of course through exchange rather than robbery. To acquire these set components, he took quite a big financial hit, losing nearly half a percent of his net worth!

But it was worth it; with the full seven-piece Saint Emperor set, his abilities had taken a huge leap since the time he killed the Demon Dragon Emperor, surpassing even his previous peak.

If he had these conditions back then, he might have been able to kill the Demon Dragon Emperor even without them going easy.

While Lynn was equipping each item, Victor did not try to interfere or interrupt, not because equipping items granted invincibility, but because she knew Lynn was deliberately doing it in front of her. In reality, with their strength, switching a full set of equipment wouldn’t even take half a second. If she truly intervened, it would only make a fool of herself.

"Now, can we renegotiate?"

Lynn activated all the divine artifacts, and the overwhelming holy light power pierced the sky, dispelling all the demonic qi and darkness around. Whether it was Victor’s pressure or the remnants of the Power of the Demon God, all were swept away, disappearing without a trace.

At this sight, Victor remained silent, as she wasn’t some fool who didn’t know her limits. At this instant, His Majesty the Miracle Saint Emperor was clearly more powerful than she was, and once they fought, she would surely fall into a disadvantage.

If she possessed the Demon Emperor’s Armor, she might have confidence in battling the Miracle Saint Emperor wielding the seven-set divine artifacts. But unfortunately, the throne left by the daddy of her children was inherited by that Illidan Stormrage, leaving her without fame or armor.

Her current equipment was only a level 950 Demon Artifact Set, which, although top-tier, paled in comparison to the opponent’s seven-piece level 999 divine artifact set, truly leaving no room for fight.

However, fortunately, she was lucky enough. As she arrived at the Divine Protection Continent, she sensed a disgust-inducing aura, which she targeted as the key to victory.

"The Miracle Saint Emperor is indeed formidable, but there is a flaw,"

Almost completing the Saint Emperor set is no small matter, Victor admitted she was currently at a disadvantage, but as she said, a 7/8 set is incomplete, and the true set attributes were not activated, thus not truly invincible.

"It might be difficult to determine a winner between us, and the seven demon kings cannot defeat you, the Miracle Saint Emperor, but although we cannot harm you, we can massacre all your subordinates. So I ask, do you want the Divine Abandonment Continent, or do you want the lives of these people?"

Victor spoke with a cold sneer. She wasn’t some rule-abiding Light Holy Dragon but an Ancient Demon Dragon known for all manner of wicked deeds. The once mighty Demon Realm had withered after the battle of faith, leaving only the Seven Great Demon Kings considered a force. Therefore, she did not bring the demon army, only having seven demon kings with her.

In the current situation, the advantage lies with them. Apart from one Miracle Saint Emperor, the enemy forces were all weaklings, while their side had no weak links. As long as she could hold off the Miracle Saint Emperor, the millions of enemy troops below were not enemies but bargaining chips.

Of course, although these chips seemed numerous, they weren’t truly valuable. With a typical demon psychology, the Miracle Saint Emperor might care for some of the people, like his wife and children, but probably not overly much.

After all, he is a powerful Near God; what kind of wife can’t he find? How many children can’t he have?

In the Demon Realm, family ties aren’t particularly important, and can be easily discarded when necessary. Victor is an exception in the Demon Realm; she doesn’t care about having a husband but deeply cares for her children.

Because pure-blooded demon dragons have a difficult time conceiving, and it might take a thousand years for a new demon dragon to be born, the inherent desire in their bloodlines makes them particularly protective of their pure-blooded offspring.

However, the Miracle Saint Emperor is not a demon dragon; for him, having children is as easy as rodents reproducing; perhaps to him, children are as replaceable as wives, not of consequence.

But humans and demons cannot be generalized, so Victor had to test it out; after all, it didn’t require her to pay any extra price.

Sure enough, with her words, the opposing Miracle Saint Emperor immediately fell into silence, his head bowed, deep in thought.

Victor was about to follow up with a few words when Proud Demon King Ilya, who had withdrawn to the second line since her appearance, suddenly stepped forward, speaking coldly—

"Your Majesty the Miracle Saint Emperor, please don’t harbor any wishful thinking. Lady Victor has the Life Gate treasure in her hands. You have no chance of victory."

Hearing Ilya’s cold voice, Lynn hastily retracted his hand and orb that were secretly reaching for the Demon Mirror.

Damn it! Did they confiscate her Demon Mirror? Can’t I even pull a fast one on this old dragon? Do I have to expose it on the spot?

Lynn kept questioning himself, then looked at the somewhat stunned Victor.

Victor was momentarily stunned before realizing.

No wonder she’s the leader of the Seven Great Demon Kings, with such sharp perception. She had barely touched it, and Ilya noticed.

But let it be discovered. It was meant to provoke the Miracle Saint Emperor, though Ilya’s overstepping was unacceptable. She’s too proud for daring to snatch her lines!

"Exactly, Miracle Saint Emperor, the only possibility for you to turn the tide is in my hands. Without it, you can’t negotiate with me!"

With that, Victor raised the item wrapped in demonic power in her hand, a triumphant smile on her face.

The ultimate white was sealed within the dark power, hovering on Victor’s palm, was a pair of angel-winged boots.
