My Beautiful Duchess Wife

Boom...

As the golden light burst forth, dark energy also erupted. Furthermore, carrying layers of power, it seemed to slowly dissipate.

That power seemed to cause even this space to ripple. Furthermore, waves of energy shot out far and wide, causing even the outer seal to tremble.

However, in the blink of an eye, Lin Peng vanished. It was as if he had simply disappeared from the scene. It was as if he had vanished from this space in an instant.

The thousands of dark, fallen angels were all stunned for a moment, somewhat confused. At that very moment, a golden light shone from their center.

With a roar that seemed to reach the heavens, it soared into the air in an instant. The leading fallen angel had no time to react before a golden light pierced his chest.

puff……

After a soft sound, the leader of the fallen angels stared intently at his chest, seemingly in disbelief. Indeed, his chest appeared to have suddenly become a hollow space.

Immediately, before the black energy could even release its power to save the black hole, its entire body emitted light in an instant.

Furthermore, the golden light exploded in an instant. The person was completely obliterated, leaving not even ashes. The other fallen angels witnessed this scene.

However, like a real puppet, it didn't react at all. Moreover, the chilling intent in its eyes grew even stronger.

Lin Peng's figure became slightly visible within the golden light. His brows furrowed slightly; without even looking, he knew that there was definitely another force controlling these fallen dark angels.

It suddenly occurred to me that even the dark angels of the demon realm might be far more attractive than these angels. Because, at this moment, these angels are the true demons.

He gave a wry smile and muttered, "Looks like eliminating this group of fallen angels is really going to be a bit tricky!" He then turned to look at the nearly ten thousand angels on the other side behind him.

All the angels wore cold expressions. Once again, as they prepared to raise their longswords, Lin Peng was the first to act.

He had always insisted on striking first, and there was absolutely no reason for him to let someone else make the first move. Those golden lights, seemingly in an instant, began to rampage wildly.

Countless golden rays, like the sun at the center, erupted in an instant, piercing the bodies of thousands of angels in a flash.

Before they could even react, Lin Peng, holding his round shield, coldly snorted, "Explode!" Boom!... A series of golden lights suddenly exploded.

Furthermore, it carried bursts of flames, seemingly intent on burning this entire abyss-like land to ashes.

Amidst the cold laughter, the entire first half of the area began to burn. The raging flames looked so joyous.

It was as if they had found a flame that could burn freely. More than anything, they wanted to demonstrate their greatest power, to let someone see it.

Then, he could win them over and truly make them loyal subordinates of that master. At this moment, after his cold laugh, Lin Peng became even more thoughtful.

Elements, it seems, also possess emotions. Furthermore, they hold an extremely firm stance. It seems their lives are dedicated to having all their power used by those who uphold justice.

Could it be that those dark elements also possess such thoughts? Thinking of this, his eyes peered intently into the deeper, more mysterious places.

He leaned the spear at an angle against his waist. The golden light on the round shield still hadn't faded. Slowly, he walked towards that deeper, more secluded place.

Ahead, in the deep darkness, a figure seemed to appear suddenly. After a few fluctuations, it materialized. To Lin Peng's surprise, it was...

This figure was none other than the Queen of the Underworld! "I never imagined your strength would increase so dramatically all of a sudden. I underestimated you back then!" The Queen of the Underworld narrowed her eyes, staring at Lin Peng.

Lin Peng remained quite wary of this suddenly appearing beauty, especially one so powerful it seemed almost unbelievable. After all, the Creator and the Ancestor had spoken about this while they were outside.

This woman wanted to directly absorb the power of darkness for her own use. Moreover, it seems she obtained the power of darkness all at once.

However, things are not very stable yet.

Therefore, they simply don't dare to come out and confront each other head-on. After all, in such a place, it's easier for them to fuse together an even more powerful force.

"You flatter me. To be honest, I really don't understand. Why would you give up being a proper Queen of the Underworld and insist on doing something like this? Don't you find it exhausting?" Lin Peng said seriously, as if he were chatting casually, or rather, recounting something very ordinary.

The Queen of the Underworld's lips parted slightly. Then, without any clue what was going on, she burst into laughter. It was as if she had heard the funniest thing in the world.

"So, my Sun God King, were you more comfortable when you became God King, or when you were being hunted down?" The Queen of the Underworld changed the subject and asked softly.

Of course, Lin Peng didn't even hesitate for a moment before saying, "Of course I'm more comfortable now. Hehe, what good is knowing about my past life? But I think this life is more comfortable. I never imagined there was such a world. It's strange, novel, and of course, quite interesting. I just don't know if I can survive this time. If I can, perhaps I'll go back to that world before me to take a look, who knows..."

When Lin Peng spoke of returning to the world he once knew, he was referring to the place where he was born—a place that, while somewhat dark, was also filled with light, and where so much light accompanied him as he grew up.

At this point, Lin Peng seemed to lose himself in thought.

The Queen of the Underworld was completely stunned. Her eyes deepened. She remembered that this man had said the same thing years ago.

"If we really had a choice, sometimes, a simple and ordinary life is a blessing. Perhaps the Goddess of Dawn and I would be the kind of ordinary people who can live a simple life, farming and weaving... Hahaha..."

However, when I think of those words now, for some reason, I actually believe that Lin Peng really prefers the life of an ordinary person without any divine authority.

Sometimes, even the most intelligent people can never understand some simple things. Take, for example, the Queen of the Underworld now.

After letting out a cold laugh, he pointed to the thousands of fallen angels still standing in the distance and said, "To be honest, if you can really get through this, I'd really like to see you arrive. I just don't know how much strength you'll have left when you come to my side and try to defeat me!"

He then glanced at the seven-colored barrier in the distance and said again, "Also, I know the strength of the Creator and the Ancestor. Once I complete my fusion, they might be the first to die!" His last words were resolute, and carried a hint of killing intent. Just as Lin Peng reacted and was about to make his move...

Amidst the laughter, the Queen of the Underworld vanished...

Outside the seven-colored barrier, everyone stared with worried expressions at the churning dark energy within. They had no idea what was happening.

However, it's reasonable to assume that Lin Peng has already engaged in combat. The shockwave from just now even seemed to cause the seven-colored barrier to ripple.

Moreover, the golden light that followed further proved that Lin Peng had fought a difficult battle. But everyone felt a deep sense of pride.

That was the true center of the universe, the birthplace of darkness. Surprisingly, even such a place couldn't affect his mind.

The nine-tailed fox, pouting, stared at Creation with great displeasure.

Seemingly having endured this for a long time, he snorted, "You old codger, how could you let him in? Do you really want to keep your position, so you don't want him to surpass you and let him in?" With just those one sentence, all the experts felt beads of sweat, the size of soybeans, streaming down their foreheads…

Chapter Forty-Five: Confrontation

Even the Creator God seemed stunned. His eyes became somewhat unfocused. He remembered that he had actually had such a thought back then.

This led to a direct war between gods and demons, giving Diablo a brief respite. It's unclear whether it was its own fault, or whether it was truly influenced by Diablo.

Perhaps it really was his dark side. Thinking this, the Creator glanced at the reincarnated Goddess of Dawn and chuckled softly, "Speaking of which, I actually did have that thought back then!" "Huh?" Almost everyone gaped, looking utterly incredulous. Some even nearly tumbled to the ground.

Poseidon and Harris, in particular, both twitched their eyebrows slightly. Their lips twitched as if they were having a seizure!

The nine-tailed fox was stunned for a moment, then her temper flared up: "Fine, so that's why you let him go in directly! So that's really how it is! Humph...you..." But she couldn't say anything after stammering for a long time.

After thinking about it for a long time, it seems that the Creator God and the Ancestor were indeed good teachers before the war between gods and demons. They were also excellent guides.

Thinking about this, he suddenly realized what had happened that made those two have such thoughts. The ancestor was also filled with shame.

He shook his head helplessly and glanced inside the sealing barrier. The golden light seemed to be bursting forth even more powerfully now.

Furthermore, it carries a masculine air.

"We did have that idea back then. But the reason we let Lin Peng in wasn't because of that. Besides, it seems his power can suppress the darkness!" Genesis sighed softly, then said helplessly. As he spoke, a glint of shrewdness appeared in his eyes.

"Indeed, you all know his power is extremely yang and rigid! Furthermore, he possesses divine power that controls the light of the world. Therefore, I think he might succeed!" The patriarch added, his eyes filled with hope…

In the darkness, Lin Peng narrowed his eyes slightly. He had only eliminated less than half of the angels. Moreover, with so many angels, he wondered if he would simply exhaust himself to death if he were to actually fight them all.

So, at this moment, he really did seem to be in a precarious situation.

At that very moment, the entire dark world suddenly began to tremble. It was as if it were truly trying to create a new world once more.

The entire world, including this dark space, rippled and trembled. Furthermore, vast swathes of dark mist opened up.

What was revealed was actually a staircase.

Indeed, it was one of those staircases that seemed to lead directly to the heavens. At the top of the staircase sat a figure. Lin Peng knew without a doubt that it was none other than the Queen of the Underworld.

He gripped the spear tightly once more, as if his fighting spirit had been instantly ignited. A glint of shrewdness shone in his eyes.

Even if there were tens of thousands of such angels in front of him, it seemed that he could only charge through like this. He sneered, and countless golden lights suddenly burst forth from the round shield in his left hand.

Moreover, it shot towards the angels like a sharp sword.

But just as the golden light shot halfway through its trajectory, the angels, whether due to the power of darkness or some other reason, all became enveloped in a dark aura.

A wisp of mist instantly dissolved their bodies. In a flash, they transformed into something that resembled both light and mist.

Slowly, it floated towards the Queen of the Underworld on the steps. Seeing this, Lin Peng naturally refused to let this dark power grow any stronger. He sneered, and the beams of light shot out...

In an instant, they suddenly changed direction, rushing towards the dark mist with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, the mist began to dissipate.

Moreover, it was as if she had vanished in an instant. At this moment, the Queen of the Underworld, who was sitting cross-legged on her throne, also opened her beautiful eyes, which made even those who saw them feel a little uneasy.

Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly. She hadn't expected Lin Peng to actually be able to dispel her dark power.

He snorted coldly and muttered, "Now, no matter how powerful you are, I will not be afraid of you!" After saying that, the remaining thousand angels suddenly rushed up the stairs.

This surprised Lin Peng for a moment. He was somewhat confused about what was going on. A smile played on his lips as he said, "No matter what, we still have to go up and see!" He tilted his spear behind him, and instantly, at incredible speed, he transformed into a golden streak and rushed upwards. However, he had just reached the top of the steps...

The angels suddenly attacked. Their dark swords now moved like treacherous spears. They attacked in groups of three, from different directions.

At the same time, Lin Peng's upper, middle, and lower body were blocked. Lin Peng's lips curled slightly, and he let out a cold snort. Such a move, without power, is just nonsense.

After the round shield blocked the attack, golden light erupted from his hand once more, instantly killing three people. After killing the three, he seemed to realize...

The strength of these three people suddenly dropped to the level of a mid-level god. Moreover, originally, they were at most controlled by someone.

However, at this moment, their movements were truly as stiff as corpses. Their brows were slightly furrowed, and their entire bodies shone with golden light.

At this moment, it truly felt like the blazing sun.

"Queen of the Underworld, it's not too late to turn back now. Otherwise, once I'm up there, you'll truly have no chance to turn back. And you might even be killed by me!" Lin Peng ignored the angels who were still trying to rush down, and instead raised his head to roar at the Queen of the Underworld on the throne. It seemed to carry a very fair and righteous tone.

The Queen of the Underworld on her throne was clearly stunned. She seemed momentarily unable to process what was happening. Was he going to kill her? Kill her now? Or did he truly possess the power to dispel darkness? It was unclear whether she was laughing out of anger or genuinely found Lin Peng amusing.

At this moment, the Queen of the Underworld burst into maniacal laughter.

Pointing at Lin Peng below, whose golden light was still somewhat dazzling, she shouted, "Lin Peng, do you really think you can defeat me now? Do you know that even the Creator and the Ancestor dare not enter? But you entered. Moreover, you showed no fear of the dark energy. Just as the previous Dark One said, a freak like you actually appeared!"

Lin Peng chuckled, not knowing for sure what was going on. Why wasn't he afraid of those mental illusions?

Of course, perhaps it's because I'm not from this world at all! And... moreover, I have absolutely no understanding of this world.

Since these dark forces were completely useless against him, Lin Peng figured he could certainly defeat this woman.

He chuckled and suddenly said, "Now that I've come this far, of course I have a way to truly defeat you. Besides... even if you were truly that powerful now, why wouldn't you go out and cause trouble for the Creator and the others? So, in the end, your current fusion might not be perfect. You're... waiting..." The Queen of the Underworld's face instantly turned cold. She seemed to have been seen through in an instant, and a hint of anger rose within her.

Yes, I am indeed waiting. Because, after seizing the Dark Will for a moment, I seem to be somewhat controlled by it.

Therefore, she is now desperately trying to erase this consciousness.

However, no matter what, dealing with someone who was merely a high-ranking god was still quite easy. Thinking this, he suddenly waved his hands towards the angels.

Instantly, streams of dark energy engulfed their bodies. Furthermore, countless streams of dark energy began to gather together.

It's like a vortex, gathering towards the darkest point in the very center...
