The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 342: Chapter 286: Rearguard Disturbance (Part 2)

"We trust you." ×N.

As Lynn’s wives, they knew he was somewhat lecherous, but having been with him for so long, he hadn’t shown any flaws in his character.

If it were just a seduction attempt by an Enchanting Demon, it would be impossible to succeed; Lynn wasn’t that superficial. Besides, his wives at home were each a rare beauty, and even the Princess Squad sent by the Eight Great Empires to him was incredibly exquisite. He hadn’t finished with what was at home and the beauties around him, so how could he be so greedy?

"Although my intuition tells me there shouldn’t be any trouble, you all should still be cautious. Everyone, including the dragons, hold onto your Random Teleportation Scrolls. If Victor shows up, no matter if she’s hostile or not, crush the scroll immediately without a second of hesitation, understood?"

Before leaving, Lynn gathered his family, constantly reminding them not to be stingy with escape tools. Although the Random Teleportation Scroll he gave them was specially made for cross-location teleportation and was a rare treasure since the system shop was no longer available, no item was more precious than his family, even compared to a cat.

"Understood."

"Got it~"

Now they were all at level 800 Peak Saint Tier, an invincible existence on battlefields without Demon Kings or Demon Emperors. If Lynn still worried about them, wouldn’t they all be mere vases?

Though compared to Lynn, the Illidan Demon Emperor, Victor the Near God Demon Dragon, and the terrifying Seven Great Demon Kings, they might indeed shatter upon contact...

"Alright, I’ll be back soon, wait for me."

Lynn said, kissing each wife on the lips, not even leaving Cleia out. Then he hugged two little cuties in turn, kissing their cheeks before preparing to depart.

He actually had questions about the two little ones, like when trying to team up but a message of "the other’s rank being too high" popped up in his mind, which he couldn’t comprehend now.

Moreover, all were pushed far away by the Power of the Demon God, except the two who held onto the cats unmoving.

Could it really be the cats’ ability? Could two pet cats withstand the Power of the Demon God?

Something was off...

But he didn’t want to delve into it because if he really discovered something, he might not remain a father-daughter relationship...

Or maybe not necessarily; even if they were secretly connected to the Demon God, couldn’t he be a demon himself?

He dared to challenge Demon Kings, why worry about two girls with suspicious cats?

Understanding this, Lynn’s mood calmed significantly. Just then, Little Youli’s cat stretched out its paw to tap Lynn. Seeing him look over, it meowed and patted its head with its paw pad.

Its meaning was likely...

"Human, you can pet cats to improve your luck."

At the same time, the other cat was still grooming, seeming a bit silly compared to the meowing cat.

"Alright, I’m off then."

Saying this, Lynn reached out and rubbed the meowing cat’s head fiercely, then left confidently.

As he gradually walked away, disappearing from everyone’s sight, they all began to gear up.

"Target Demon Race remnants! Full army attack!"

As the sole Emperor among the Miracle Empresses, Helena issued the command, and Natasha transformed back, enthusiastically leading the charge.

Following this, the Divine Protection Continent coalition began engaging and chasing the Demon Race remnants using mobile "monitoring footage," fully dominating them as it was their peak period.

Meanwhile, Lynn had returned to the rear base camp of the Divine Protection Continent.

But to his surprise, the lively rear camp he saw on the way here was now deserted. The whole base was devoid of people, as if cleansed by the Demon Race.

Yet, Lynn couldn’t sense any demonic Qi residue, smell blood, or find bodies or bloodstains.

Exhaling a breath, Lynn didn’t linger and immediately headed to the space passage linking the Divine Protection Continent and Divine Protection Continent.

As expected, the once functional space passage was now closed, with no signs of damage at the site, implying destruction from the Divine Protection Continent’s side.

Who did it? A traitor? Could the entire rear camp of the Divine Protection Continent be traitors?

Lynn couldn’t believe it; while they fought hard on the front lines, their retreat was cut off!

Luckily, the result of this battle was Miracle World’s overwhelming victory. Had they been defeated by the Demon Race or reached a stalemate, the consequences could have been unimaginable.

"I hope I won’t have to slaughter within..."

Lynn mumbled quietly, then walked to the space passage-less spot and tore the space open with his hands.

The space passage had been established here for a long time, and the destruction time was short, leaving transport nodes not completely disconnected yet. Being originally linked continents without a world-wide gap, Lynn had the capability to forcibly tear open a space rift to cross over.

Those who destroyed the space passage probably never imagined someone could rend space and cross the chaotic space current, so they didn’t station guards at these space passage remnants.

Of course, even if stationed, no one could stop Lynn.

"Thud."

Crossing over, Lynn landed amidst a scene identical to the Divine Protection Continent’s rear camp; this side was also devoid of people.

Another identical situation was the deliberate destruction of the Teleportation Magic Array, leaving only remnants, which even a Space System Holy Mage would take days to rebuild.

Seeing this, Lynn grew curious about the mastermind’s ploy.

Indeed, curious, not worried; for until now, he hadn’t felt a hint of unease. With so many past experiences, he trusted his intuition, absence of anxiety meant no danger.

At least no danger to him.

"Let me see what antics the brats from the War Divine Hall are up to..."

Lynn coldly chuckled to himself, crushing a green scroll in hand.

The Town Recall Scroll, only effective on major cities and not cross-realm or even cross-continent, had a five-second countdown that could be interrupted, quite lackluster compared to the instant Random Teleportation Scroll, but overly useful right now.

For he’d set the recall point at the Holy City of Light, where he suspected the greatest traitor, the War Saint Emperor, lay.

Five...

Four...

...

One...

With the countdown uninterrupted, Lynn’s figure vanished from sight, and he opened his eyes to find himself at the eastern gate of the Holy City of Light.

Raising his gaze, Lynn saw smoke and battle flames around the Holy City of Light.

The elite Light Legion of the Light Empire got deployed to the Divine Protection Continent, indeed the weakest moment, but as the first of the Eight Great Empires, the Light Empire was no easy adversary; who dared challenge the Light Empire?

Lynn flew into the air, ascending high, surveying the Holy City of Light below with sheer dominance, naturally drawn to the "climactic duel" atop the Holy Mountain of Light.

Indeed, it was you, War Saint Emperor, truly no suspense, an obvious antagonist evoking no surprise.

Luckily this was reality; in a novel, the author would face backlash...
