Die, princess, the devil is mine!

Chapter 38 The Mysterious and Powerful Lin En

After dinner, Lin En took little Yuna back to his home and continued to tell her the story he had not finished before.

At the same time, the Tianming Empire's grand court meeting, which was held only once a month, was held early due to something.

The incident that happened in the Duke of Wilson's Mansion had actually spread last night, and after a night of brewing, the impact of this incident had become astonishingly great.

In the imperial capital of the Tianming Empire, a powerful being who is suspected to be at the demigod level appeared!
When this shocking news first spread, many people did not believe it. However, as some people who were more concerned about the truth found out more about it, and after Duke Wilson regained consciousness and made shocked and angry accusations, a small number of people finally believed the rumor.

As for why it is a small number of people, it is of course because more people have brains and can think for themselves.

A level 900+ demigod? You must be kidding! Do you dare to say that in front of the Holy Emperor of Light?

Just ask him, how come you, the strongest person in the God-blessed Continent, are almost 200 levels lower than others? Why don’t you go and ask him!

Aside from the sages of several hundred years ago, has there ever been a level 900 demigod in the Divine Blessing Continent in the past five hundred years? Even peak saints above level 800 are rare.

Because the war with the demons was too brutal, all the top saints in the God-Blessed Continent had died heroically, leaving only the new generation of Holy Emperor of Light at level 750 to support this crumbling continent.

If it weren't for the divine army that descended from the sky a year ago and wiped out the top lineup of the demon clan, I'm afraid that in less than half a year, the God-Blessed Continent would have been completely conquered by the demon clan just like the God-Forsaken Continent and the God-Sheltered Continent.

Now, you tell me that there is actually a demigod over level 900 in the Divine Blessing Continent?
Why doesn't he just attack the Demon Realm? The Demon Emperor and the seven great Demon Lords were all killed by the Heavenly Soldiers. Now the Demon Emperor's throne is vacant, and the new Demon Lords who succeed him are only level 700. He alone can destroy the entire Demon Realm. So why do we still need to maintain so many armies and offer sacrifices to so many powerful people?
Of course, they had no way of figuring out the thoughts of the demigods. After all, they were not on the same level. After all, demigods... simply could not exist. So how could they figure it out?

Those guys who went to Wilson's house to join in the fun must have regarded the high-level saints of level 700 or more as demigods. If they wanted to slaughter Rajen and subdue Duke Wilson in one move, the 750-level Holy Emperor of Light could do it easily.

Instead of believing that guy's boastful level of over 900, it's better to believe that I am the First Emperor of the Tianming Empire. Transfer 50 gold coins to me, and I might even make you the Grand Marshal of the Army.

Of course, even if 90% of people don’t believe that the strange strong man who caused trouble in Duke Wilson’s mansion last night is a demigod-level existence, but considering his strength that can slap Duke Wilson away with a slap, it is definitely not an exaggeration to estimate that he is above level 720.

The level of 720 means he is the strongest in the Destiny Empire. He is a terrifying existence that no one can afford to offend. There are no more than ten people in the entire Divine Blessed Continent who can be above him. Even if he is not a demigod-level person who is absolutely invincible, he is enough to walk sideways in the Destiny Empire.

The emergency court meeting still had to be held. When faced with such a major event, even the Emperor of Heaven, who was privately regarded as a foolish ruler by his own people, could not be absent, because this matter could have a direct impact on him.

For example, if that powerful individual developed discontent with the imperial family and attempted to assassinate the emperor, the numerous powerful individuals within the palace would likely be unable to stop him. With such an unstable factor roaming around in Tianming City, the Emperor would likely have a hard time sleeping soundly. After all, if he could strike at Duke Wilson, there was no guarantee he would strike at even greater nobles. The Emperor, knowing his own reputation, was undoubtedly concerned.

At this time, in the main hall of the Tianming Imperial City, almost all the nobles and high-ranking officials of the entire empire had gathered. Although the Tianming Emperor, who rarely came out to handle government affairs in the past, was a little late, he finally showed up.

"Everyone, I think you all know why today's grand court meeting is being held. Do you have anything to say about that mysterious and powerful person?"

The current Emperor of Heaven is a middle-aged man, only forty-five years old this year. However, because he indulges in pleasure and sensual pleasures, at this age when most warriors and magicians are at their prime, his complexion is worn and his skin is loose.

Seventeen years ago, when he ascended the throne, he was already at level 490, just a few steps away from entering the Saint level. He was a rare genius.

However, seventeen years have passed, and the genius prince of that time not only failed to successfully ascend to the Saint level, but also ruined his body. Now he is only level 495, but if he does not rely on top-grade equipment, if he is sent out to compete with others, he may not be able to deal with a level 300 opponent.

At this grand court meeting, his voice seemed to be lacking in strength, but fortunately he had a high level of foundation and was not short of royal supplements, which at least prevented him from appearing listless.

"Your Majesty, that mysterious and powerful individual appeared so suddenly. If he hadn't attacked Duke Wilson and his son in his residence, no one would have known such a person existed in Tianming City. Previously, no channels had heard of him. All we knew about him was the little information he revealed himself."

As the director of the intelligence department of the Destiny Empire, Duke Kant used to be responsible for intelligence about the demons and neighboring countries with which they had unfriendly relations. Of course, they also paid attention to the top powers of the Divine Blessing Continent, but Lin En, who suddenly appeared, was not among those top figures at all. More than half of the information he collected now came from the guests at last night's dinner, but he was lucky if he could believe 60% of what they said.

"Then where did he enter the country from? We can find out!"

Emperor Tianming was obviously very dissatisfied with Duke Kant's intelligence capabilities. If it weren't for the fact that the Kant family had such deep roots in the Tianming Empire and had been in charge of the intelligence system for many years, and was not to be underestimated in all aspects, he would probably have pointed at his nose and scolded him.

"Your Majesty, we've already investigated this. He entered Tianming City through the teleportation array at the World Tree node. We've also investigated the circumstances leading up to his entry. He first appeared near the World Tree, descending from the sky with wings behind him. Many people present witnessed this."

Duke Kant was not a complete idler. One night was enough for him to mobilize his forces to investigate many things. Especially since Lin En had always been so arrogant and had never hidden his tracks, it was very easy to investigate him. He could just ask anyone and the truth would come out.

"Who has he been in contact with? Are they hostile to our empire? Have you investigated this?"

Emperor Tianming asked rather irritably.
