The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 172: Five Kingdoms Execution Order

After the Prophet Granny left, Lynn and Xiya no longer had any reason to stay at the Elf Kingdom’s embassy.

In fact, they had just stepped into the embassy and hadn’t even met the ambassador before being sent away by the Prophet Granny.

However, it didn’t matter much; they weren’t there for diplomatic business anyway. They had taken care of what needed to be done.

Yet before arriving, neither the human nor the elf anticipated this separation — their remaining time turned out to be just this one last day.

Although the future is long, the separation is undeniably imminent.

To be honest, as readily as Lynn agreed before, the harder it is now to part.

The house in the Celestial Destiny Empire felt like home because of Xiya, because of Vivian, because of their two children, because of Catherine claiming to be a guest, because of the cats, dragons, and eagles — otherwise, it would just be real estate.

Before meeting them, he often ate alone with just a chicken and a burger, but having a family made life truly worth living.

"Go back and spend time with the kids; if you leave, it’s not just me who will miss you,"

Once again, Lynn held Xiya’s hand, and Xiya instinctively intertwined her fingers with his, feeling a surge of love for Lynn. Such intimate gestures always uplifted her spirits.

Of course, overly intimate actions would cause mainly shyness — who knows where Lynn learned so many tricks. He seemed clumsy, not adept at all, yet he played true ingenuity, with endless creativity pouring out as if his inspiration never ran dry.

"Little Yuna hasn’t spent much time with me, so she might be okay, but Little Yuri has been with me for a year. Suddenly separating for a while... I’ll comfort her properly."

Speaking of the children, Lynn’s words made Xiya worry. She believed lively Little Yuna could convince her own heart, but as for clingy Little Yuri, she wasn’t sure if she could accept a temporary separation from mom.

"I’ll have Catherine stay at home more frequently. She and Vivian can each take care of one kid, and they should be able to manage."

At this moment, Lynn was grateful to have enough wives. Even if one was absent, there were enough hands to take care of the kids. If he foolishly stuck to a single partner in a world that allows polygamy, too many kids could tire his beloved wife out.

"Just be secretly happy, besides Catherine, everyone is considerate of you, not holding grudges. Vivian, Helena, even Natasha are remarkable women, you ought to treat them well, and find ways for Catherine too."

Holding hands with her beloved man, discussing her beloved man’s other beloved women — Xiya should feel odd under normal circumstances, yet she didn’t.

She lacked any companion in her youth, now she loves someone who loves others, which sounds sad at first, but after experiencing it, Xiya felt okay, mainly because Lynn was indeed a good person.

"I love you, and love everyone. I will make sure everyone is happy!"

Holding the hand of his beloved elf, Lynn firmly promised. His words felt weightier than vows; once spoken, four hundred horses couldn’t chase them down.

"Hmph! If one day you make any sister feel unhappy, I might not help you,"

Xiya heard him and squinted with a smile, still letting out a delicate hum to prevent Lynn from being too smug.

"Don’t worry, I won’t let that happen. If it actually does..."

"Tsk!"

"Boom!"

"Wow!"

Seeing the rare bashful look on Xiya’s face, Lynn was cheerfully responding, but before he finished speaking, they heard loud noises from nearby resonating continuously.

There were three loud sounds nearby, heard clearly by the human and elf, and two more at a distance; with their abilities, they heard them distinctly.

"Those are emergency alerts from the Eagle Empire, Sunset Empire, and Star Moon Empire embassies!"

Xiya, being a Saint Tier Elf Archer, had outstanding vision and hearing. Having traveled through various continents, she was familiar with different countries’ emergency communication signals and could immediately identify the sources of these noises.

Noises like these are typically reserved for transmitting top-tier emergency alerts, which only the Empire Emperor and the Divine Hall Pope have the authority to deploy, and no one else can even touch them.

"Over there is the signal from the Endless Empire and Lolan Empire. What happened to trigger emergency alerts from five empires?"

Xiya was truly stunned; the last time such a commotion arose was a year ago. Though the time gap wasn’t far, that incident was when the Demon Dragon Emperor led troops into the center of the Divine Protection Continent, concerning the life and death of the entire continent at the highest level. No one dared to disregard even slightly.

Afterward, Xiya explained to the puzzled Lynn about the emergency alerts exclusive to the Eight Great Empires and the urgency and solemnity of this type of alert.

"These things... aren’t they somewhat like server-wide announcements? I’m quite curious about what they’re announcing."

Lynn translated Xiya’s explanation into his own understanding, instantly comprehending what happened moments ago.

The Eight Great Empires can send emergency alerts from embassies across nearly all of the Divine Protection Continent, with no delay between sending and broadcasting. In his understanding, it’s akin to server-wide announcements, essentially declaring to the world, far surpassing Helena’s four-direction decree, comparable to the Demon Emperor’s edicts he tasked Ilya with.

Nevertheless, as Empress of the Celestial Destiny Empire and one of the Eight Great Empire leaders, Helena could also emit such alerts if she wanted, although her previous decree only required domestic dissemination within the Celestial Destiny Empire, not a continental announcement.

"Five Great Empires issuing simultaneous alerts must signal a major event. Shortly, after the preludes, the alert content will soon be revealed."

Just as Xiya’s words fell, after capturing everyone’s attention, the airspace of nations hosting the embassies of these five Great Empires began broadcasting their pre-edited alert contents simultaneously.

"Lynn of the Celestial Destiny Empire committed the crime of regicide, slaughtering the Divine Blood Royal Family. By Sunset Empire’s His Majesty the Emperor’s verdict, a bounty is placed — all belonging to the Sunset Empire may proceed to Celestial Destiny City to capture and kill him, rewards amounting to fifty billion gold coins or a Divine Artifact."
