My Beautiful Duchess Wife

However, he disliked this expert from the Night Demon clan extremely.

Every life has the right to live. Lin Peng recalled the principal's kind laughter from years ago, and those words that had always been etched in his heart!

At that instant, his entire body seemed to burst forth with a clear yellow flame.

The three fireballs, in an instant, slowly drifted into the sky. For a moment, the skulls and zombies were all stunned.

It seemed to be very afraid of light! Then, with a sharp cry, it staggered and rushed towards Lin Peng.

Lin Peng slowly opened his hands. After pressing them down hard on his chest, a ball of flame suddenly appeared as if it had exploded.

At that moment, a massive burst of flames hurtled towards the zombies, as if a divine dragon had descended upon the world. And in the sky, the three fireballs, after a dragon's roar, instantly transformed into the shape of fire dragons!

Chapter 47 No Successful Plan

Four dragons soaring together—this was the strongest flame power Lin Peng could currently withstand. His body was already severely injured. Furthermore, being within someone else's barrier significantly reduced its power.

In the outside world, there are actually many pseudo-barriers, just like many pseudo-domains. Even the domains used by those Demon Emperors are only pseudo-domains.

However, as for barriers, almost any demon emperor can use them as long as they possess genuine secret techniques.

Four fiery dragons coiled and roared as they charged in all directions. Wherever they passed, everything was charred black, and the skulls were reduced to nothing but ashes.

Lin Peng clasped his hands together and stood quietly in place. He sensed the entire path the Flame Dragon had taken through the Flame Dragon's perception. Now was the time to find that Night Demon clan.

Although he was only a Great Demon King level being, things might change if he got lucky. Of course, the chances of finding it within such a barrier were extremely slim.

However, these fire dragons alone, at least the zombies and skulls, were utterly useless against them. Laura's eyes widened.

Such a focusing spell is truly hard to find without the training and instruction of a specific family. Ordinary fire mages, it seems, are pretty much limited to fireballs and rockets.

Every kind of condensing magic is formed through powerful compression. Of course, such compression requires a certain skill; otherwise, one will only harm oneself.

Watching the dragons fly away from afar, Laura felt a pang of envy. Because she wasn't a boy, no matter how skilled she was at puppetry, she couldn't possibly obtain any secret techniques or anything like that.

Right now, my strength is only at the peak of a Demon King.

If it weren't for those puppets, perhaps she would have been married off like a commodity. The entire Dark Forest was now illuminated by firelight.

Along with it came charred ashes and charred remains. Cries of agony filled the air, some death screams, others the agony of being burned by the fire.

Their gathering together made the already somewhat terrifying forest even more terrifying.

Lin Peng's brow suddenly relaxed. As if he had breathed a sigh of relief, he looked in one direction. At the same time, the four fire dragons also gathered together in an instant after letting out a high-pitched dragon roar.

After the four fire dragons met, they slowly merged together. "Roar..." A dragon roar, as if using a natural ability to generate sound waves, appeared, and the entire Dark Forest seemed to tremble.

Immediately, the fiery dragon, thirty to forty meters long, slammed directly into one spot. A bloodcurdling scream rang out.

Accompanied by the roar of a demon, a huge lion-shaped unicorn leaped out from the ground.

"Damn it, you little demon king, you've driven me to this point. Heh heh, if you don't want to be devoured by my zombies, then you'll have no choice but to devour your soul!"

This creature appears to be exactly the same as the one that was knocked into the ground by the troll earlier. From Angelina's introduction, I learned that it is called the Unicorn Black Lion Beast.

In other words, the companion demonic pets of the Night Demon clan.

A black lion, several meters long and four or five meters tall, slowly approached Lin Peng, its single horn fixed on him. The fiery dragon from before, though seemingly powerful...

But in front of a true Demon Emperor-level expert, it's really nothing. After all, that Demon Emperor's strength wasn't for nothing.

Although he no longer has a physical body, it seems that possessing his soul within his companion demonic pet is not much different. At least, his strength can definitely be unleashed.

Lin Peng narrowed his eyes slightly and exchanged a glance with the troll general.

Forcing this guy out was only one of the objectives. Lin Peng's ultimate goal was to completely destroy the unicorn lion's body.

Only in this way can his plan be carried out.

Lin Peng's hands remained clasped together. At the same time, Laura's two puppets slowly walked towards the one-horned lion.

Both of them took very small, but steady steps. They had no intention of launching a sneak attack, which was also Laura's intention. In the darkness, they were no match for the Night Demons.

Moreover, they are not even at the same level.

The troll's cloak was slowly drawn back, revealing a muscular physique that was incredibly powerful and well-proportioned.

Although he appeared to be about the same height as Lin Peng, the troll, wearing only a small vest, exuded a fierce and primal aura.

The aura emanating from Lin Peng was the exact opposite of his, yet also quite similar. This was because Lin Peng's aura always gave people a different feeling. Not only did they sense a destructive aspect, but within that destruction lay an extremely pure vitality. Therefore, most people were quite speechless about Lin Peng.

Just this kind of aura is something that not everyone can possess.

This time, Lin Peng was extremely cautious. Last time, his victory over the Snake King was purely due to luck. Moreover, if the Snake King hadn't wanted his soul, it wouldn't have been sucked into his space.

However, judging from the Night Demon's posture, it was clear that it wanted to kill him directly and then devour his soul.

In that case, we absolutely cannot treat it like the Snake King incident. If things go wrong, it could really kill us!

"Go!" Lin Peng uttered a single word and quickly ran to the left. The troll, on the other hand, was already bloodthirsty and berserk.

His entire body suddenly grew to a height of three or four meters.

With absolute speed, it appeared beside the unicorn lion in an instant. Even the Night Demon, now possessing the unicorn lion, was somewhat surprised.

Before he could react, a barrage of punches rained down upon him. Each punch carried immense power and speed, and was enveloped in a red glow.

The unicorn lion was stunned by the punches alone. At that moment, Lin Peng suddenly stood up, and after his hands moved quickly together, flames slowly began to rise from the ground.

The wisps of flame, though not very strong, instantly illuminated the entire dark forest, making it seem like broad daylight.

After a powerful punch, the unicorn lion was sent flying over a hundred meters. At that moment, the puppets seemed to come into action. First, the burly puppet below the unicorn lion clasped its hands together, forming a punching motion, and charged towards the lion!

The entire punch was like a rocket launcher; the golden light it emitted caused the lion's eyes to close. Clearly, it was once again sent flying by this punch.

Of course, it didn't possess the strength and speed of a troll. Therefore, the distance wasn't very far. Meanwhile, on the other side, the old man, the number one puppet, appeared completely lifeless.

However, the next moment, after slamming his palm hard against the ground, countless enormous green leaves burst forth, coiling around the unicorn lion that was about to fall.

The speed was so fast that in the blink of an eye, the unicorn lion had barely reacted before it was already entangled by the green leaves.

Only then did Night Demon realize that he had been on the defensive the whole time.

At this moment, Lin Peng wore an extremely smug smile. It seemed as if everything was under his control. He even went so far as to laugh loudly, "Night Demon, let's see if you can survive this time!"

As he spoke, he slammed his hands together. Instantly, a towering burst of fire erupted, like a real nuclear explosion.

The massive shockwave, carrying with it flames, was so dazzling that it was impossible to open one's eyes. Unfortunately, it only lasted for a fleeting moment.

Before the pillar of fire could truly explode and launch, it suddenly seemed to weaken, flickering a few times before going out. Wisps of flame even lingered on the ground.

Otherwise, people would really think that what just happened never happened at all! Lin Peng was dumbfounded for a moment. After looking at the one-horned lion that had just emerged from the pillar of fire, its whole body seemingly charred black and exuding a meaty aroma, flames immediately appeared under his feet, and he ran towards the troll.

At this moment, the troll slapped his forehead, somewhat frustrated. He had already known that his master's method was unlikely to succeed.

Now, as expected... thinking about this, all I can do is rush up to provide support!

Chapter Forty-Eight: The Labyrinth

Lin Peng had always thought he was fast, but now he suddenly realized that his speed was only fast among those of the same level.

Seeing the troll's attack speed, coupled with the lion's running speed, he suddenly felt a little inferior. This was true speed; even with his Wind Wheels buff, it seemed he would be caught sooner or later. Fortunately, the troll was already charging towards him.

The Wind and Fire Wheels on his feet suddenly seemed to explode, displaying explosive flames. Like a real rocket, he shot straight out in one direction.

At that very moment, the troll finally arrived. Its body instantly swelled to enormous size. Its fist, glowing with red light, slammed into the relentlessly attacking one-horned lion.

The punch landed squarely on the lion's nose. Instantly, black blood gushed from its nose. After a piercing scream, the lion was sent flying backward through the air.

At that moment, Lin Peng clasped his hands together in mid-air and roared, "Earth Explosion Flame!" Instantly, a towering pillar of fire erupted from the spot where the lion had landed.

It was as if the pillar of fire, which had been suddenly extinguished by the lion, was now able to unleash its true power. And this flame seemed to have a harmful effect on the soul.

The Night Demon's scream suddenly rang out, and in an instant, something seemed to float out from the Black Lion's body. Faintly, it slowly coalesced into a human shape.

Suddenly, black smoke billowed throughout the Dark Forest. Wherever it passed, the zombies that hadn't yet been burned by the flames but were still charging forward let out howls as if the world was ending.

It wasn't Lin Peng's scream of burning flames, but a genuine howl. And the black smoke, after passing through the area where the howls were heard, seemed to suddenly grow stronger, instantly transforming into the shape of a giant.

The faint soul then directly entered the enormous body formed from black smoke. Lin Peng was stunned for a moment, genuinely caught off guard.

This giant looks so much like my own fire giant. The only difference is that this one is made of black smoke and soul, while my own fire giant is made of flames.

At that moment, Lin Peng seemed to suddenly realize something. After chuckling, the flames all over his body seemed to surge suddenly.

At the same time, the flames slowly gathered behind them. Suddenly, a body as huge as black smoke appeared. Within the raging flames, a pair of orange-yellow eyes suddenly lit up.

At that moment, the body formed of black smoke also lit up with a pair of transparent eyes, like those of a ghost, the instant the soul entered. Upon meeting each other's gaze, the body formed of black smoke immediately took a step back.

Lin Peng chuckled and leaped into the body of the fire giant. Instantly, the fire giant seemed to come alive, roaring to the sky.

The black smoke giant was momentarily stunned, staring at the fire giant. The Night Demon's voice rang out: "I didn't expect you to actually know the true technique of gathering demons. Hehe... However, it seems that in ancient times, this technique was created by some god-king!"

The black smoke giant sneered and then punched the fire giant in the head. A billowing cloud of black smoke seemed to plunge the entire world into darkness.

Even with the presence of the fire giant, it was no longer so bright.

After a moment of surprise, the troll leaped up and threw a punch at the black smoke giant. However, upon touching the giant's body, it suddenly froze.

He hadn't expected that the black smoke was actually nothingness. It simply passed right through him.

"Little one, get out of the way!"

Lin Peng's voice also rang out from among the fire giants. After letting out a cold shout, the fire giant raised its fist and slammed it into the black smoke giant's fist.

Boom...

"what!"

The sound of the explosion and the piercing scream seemed to occur simultaneously. At that moment, the black smoke giant's fist, as if encountering a natural enemy, vanished instantly.

Just one punch, and he'd lost an arm. Night Demon was stunned, and at the same time, a surge of hatred rose within him. This guy's flames were clearly etched with something from the soul.

Even with the Night Demon's powerful appearance, it seemed to be of little use. After all, this guy's flames were a true furnace. Every soul that entered was doomed to die.

Thinking of this, the Night Demon had the idea of ​​escaping. After turning around and feinting a few steps, it fled in one direction. At this moment, Lin Peng also noticed that the Night Demon was actually trying to escape.

Overjoyed, he took long strides like a fire giant and chased after the Night Demon in its escape route. His speed was extremely fast.

With a single stride, he covered more than ten meters. Almost as tall as the fire giant!
