The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 347: Chapter 289: Leaking Heaven’s Secrets

Several attempts to commit suicide all ended in failure, and Rodman seemed to have calmed down.

However, Lynn and Akelie remained vigilant, after all, he was the Pope of the strongest Main God, claiming he had no final trump card would surely be unreasonable.

Yet, the journey afterward was indeed tranquil, Rodman truly seemed to have resigned himself to fate, not even putting up a struggle, allowing them to lead him to the city gate.

At this moment, all the gates of the Holy City of Light were already closed, and the war legions that suddenly attacked into the city had been purged.

This was thanks to Akelie’s constant vigilance against the War Divine Hall, never allowing their grand army entry into the city, otherwise the current battle situation would likely be dramatically different.

"Akelie, you know how to cast a few Forbidden Curses, right? Leave the distant ones to you, I’ll handle the nearby siege forces."

Upon reaching the high skies outside the Holy City of Light, Lynn looked down at the densely packed war legions below, letting out a sigh.

He always knew there were many war fanatics, but witnessing this massive legion first-hand made him truly realize how sick the world was.

And this was only one city gate of the Holy City of Light, there were still seven other gates in other places, even if the legion here was the main force, at most it constituted only a fifth or a quarter.

"Understood."

Akelie responded earnestly, then propped up his Magic Shield and began chanting the spell.

His spirit just received a team invitation from Lord Lynn, without any suspicion Akelie directly accepted.

He had no idea what this so-called team situation was about, but as the Saint Emperor of Light, he couldn’t possibly doubt the Light Divine Envoy.

Pulling in Akelie for team formation not only aimed at leveling up together, it also was an unavoidable move.

After the previous operations by that Demon God, Lynn fretted over the vast number of enemies, fearing that these masses of believers in the War God would ignite in collective suicide explosions, forcibly sending him to the Divine Realm.

Having Akelie on the team removed this worry, after all, the army strength of Divine Protection Continent compared to the Demon Race legion was non-comparable, even if they all joined forces, Akelie’s current level could digest it, he only needed to refrain from consuming any experience, for he was just one step away.

After task allocation, Lynn intensified restraint on Rodman, sealing his six senses, yet still felt uneasy, simply using Fighting Spirit to pull him along, charging together towards the war legion below.

At this moment, the war legion was launching a fierce attack on the Holy City of Light, outside the gate lay a field of corpses, rivers of blood flowed, but the fanatical believers of the War God perhaps appeared even more tenacious and fearless than the Demon Race, showing no collapse from their comrades’ massive deaths.

After all, Demon Race waged war for destruction and chaos to strengthen themselves, their battles held purpose, whereas the believers of War God fought for so-called faith and inner killing desires, claiming purpose, but essentially fighting for the sake of war itself.

Such people can hardly be called human, just a bunch of war maniacs, lunatics, an existence more demonic than Demons.

Lynn was no bloodthirsty demon, only remaining unblinking when grinding monsters or slaying Demon Race, the last massive Human Race slaughter happened when forcibly breaking into Celestial Destiny Imperial Palace, back then he murdered the lackeys of the Tyrant with scarcely a blink, this time he slaughtered human-shaped demons without a blink whatsoever.

Lynn’s descent actually didn’t cause much commotion, although he was the strongest in the world, absolutely invincible, even as he charged the sieging army with one person trailing behind, compared to the thousands of troops below, the mere two human figures weren’t considered much, obviously, this applied only if the War Saint Emperor Rodman remained unrecognized.

Akelie hovering mid-air, on the other hand, was different, not only was his Papal attire grabbing eyes, more importantly, the nearly explosive Magic Elements surrounding him.

War Divine Hall also had mages, even separate mage battalions, Akelie’s clear preparation for casting Forbidden Curse naturally alarmed them...

"Quick! Stop him! Or we’ll all perish!"

Among the crowd, a notable figure of War Divine Hall cried out loudly, they couldn’t fathom how the Saint Emperor of Light Akelie appeared on this battlefield, didn’t Emperor Rodman go to kill him? Even if Akelie’s methods were extraordinary, failing to take him down in a short time, he shouldn’t be able to break through and counterattack them!

Amidst the cries, the top figures of War Divine Hall soared into the sky, aiming to kill Akelie, because for the Forbidden Curse to harm the enemy, Akelie had stepped out of Light Barrier’s coverage, enabling War Divine Hall’s elites to play a role, otherwise, if Akelie shrunk within Light Barrier, before breaking that shell, they wouldn’t even have a chance to act.

Yet seeing War Divine Hall’s elite rushing towards Akelie below, Akelie remained unfazed, continuing to chant his Forbidden Curse spell, absolutely confident in his Magic Shield, even if the War Saint Emperor struck, it couldn’t break instantly, holding off these attackers for two to three seconds was plausible.

However, Akelie didn’t need to endure their assault alone, seeing War Divine Hall split elites to disrupt Akelie’s Forbidden Curse casting, Lynn decisively turned, heading back to aid in solving trouble.
