My Beautiful Duchess Wife

Abaddon, whom Greenb was carrying, wore a wry smile. He hadn't expected that it would be someone from their faction who had saved him at this crucial moment. To be honest, Abaddon actually admired Greenb quite a bit. At least in weapon crafting, they were the kind of people who pursued perfection.

Looking up at the black fog that blotted out the sky and the powerful hurricane, Abaddon fell into silence.

……

As soon as Lin Peng entered his own space, Sgul was stunned. He frantically searched everywhere with his mental power, but couldn't find a trace of his presence.

It was as if this space didn't exist at all. Even Kobels was stunned, not knowing what was happening. Roland had already landed, spitting out another mouthful of blood, a helpless bitter smile on his face. A Demon Emperor-level expert, and one from the same era as his father, was not someone who could be easily dealt with!

Over there, Abaddon's two experts, although they had fully activated their domains, seemed to have no effect on Skull. And the mid-level Demon Emperor beside Skull was the most detestable, definitely an assassin.

There's simply no way to find him there! Let alone try to catch him!

"Lin Peng... if you don't come out soon, I'm really going to go on a killing spree!" The surface of Scul's battle blade was as red as if it were about to drip blood.

The murderous aura emanating from his entire body suddenly seemed to thicken at this moment.

Lin Peng, inside the space, suddenly opened his eyes. The state of mind he had just experienced seemed to have vanished. The Crimson Flame Sword that appeared in his hand emitted a crimson light, tinged with a sinister green glow. At this moment, the two lights actually intertwined and resonated with each other!

Just as Skull was about to deal with the two Demon Emperor-level experts, it was as if space around him suddenly ruptured, revealing a dazzlingly large hole!

Just as his eyes involuntarily closed, a beam of red and green light shot towards his heart. His battle blade flew from his hand, spinning to block the attack.

when……

A piercing sound erupted, and Sgul only took a step back. Lin Peng, on the other hand, was sent flying backward once more.

The speed was incredibly fast; in just a moment, the two had exchanged over a dozen blows. Moreover, it seemed that they had truly used their full strength in every single move.

There wasn't even time for Lin Peng to land before Sgul's figure reappeared in mid-air. His battle blade slashed out diagonally.

"Strangle!"

Skull roared, his expression filled with rage. The killing intent emanating from his battle blade was so intense that it seemed to obscure even the moonlight.

A crimson killing intent, like a vortex, surged towards Lin Peng's body. If this attack were to hit, he would likely be instantly pulverized.

At that moment, everyone's heart seemed to stop beating. Shia even wanted to scream, but it felt like something was blocking her throat.

She couldn't utter a sound at all. Her beautiful eyes were now completely bloodshot, as if tears of blood were about to stream down her face. Roland's eyes were wide open, and the murderous aura emanating from his entire body seemed to materialize.

In a split second, one side faced life, the other death. Boom…

The space in mid-air seemed to be completely shattered, vibrating violently. Even now, Scully, who had just landed, still seemed unable to believe it.

Looking at the battle sword in his hand, he threw his head back and laughed wildly: "Lin Peng, hahaha... Lin Peng, you little brat, you're finally dead! Hahaha... Son, my son, I've avenged you!"

Amidst his maniacal laughter, tears unexpectedly streamed down his face. In the distance, a pair of green eyes stared intently at Skull.

Like a god of death in the darkness, with an extremely terrifying expression, it slowly swam towards Skull. At this moment, Shia, who was still being supported by Angelina, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Just as she was about to rush forward and fight, Angelina grabbed her arm: "Don't worry, have you forgotten how Brother Lin Peng lost his breath?"

However, Angelina herself seemed unsure of herself when she uttered those words. Just then, Scholl unleashed an unprecedented aura, as if making a declaration.

Suddenly, a gigantic green serpent appeared in the sky. Over fifty meters long, its massive head roared to the heavens before lunging straight at Skull.

Sgul was momentarily stunned, and instinctively brandished his battle blade, slashing towards the snake's head. However, the area within a dozen meters of the snake seemed to be imbued with extremely potent venom, emanating a hazy green mist.

Upon contact, one immediately feels all strength drain from their body. Even the blood in their veins is suppressed. Only killing intent remains, seemingly ever-present, locked in a desperate struggle against the poison!

From afar, the enormous snake head was already in front of Skull in an instant. The stench was so strong that Skull almost vomited.

"Demon Lord!"

Unable to resist, this word popped into my mind. At the same time, the word "death" also flashed through my mind for a fleeting moment! Just then, a sound that seemed to tear through space came from the other side of the sky!

"you dare!"

Suddenly, a black mist, accompanied by a hurricane, crashed down upon the giant serpent. A scythe-like object instantly grew to enormous size.

With a faint black light, it slashed directly at the snake's seven-inch spot on its head.

The speed is so fast that it can be said to have reached its limit!

However, the snake's head merely swayed slightly, completely dodging the fatal blow. Simultaneously, it nimbly turned its head, spewing a cloud of poisonous mist behind it. At the same moment, its massive body began to twist, coiling around Skull's body and rising upright.

Triangle's pair of sinister eyes stared intently at the black mist in the sky. At the same time, the tornado, seemingly carrying something, slowly descended.

Of course, it was the Snake King, the old man in black robes, and Medusa who arrived! They faced off from three directions, forming a diagonal confrontation! The Snake King chuckled as if he had discovered something: "I didn't expect you to possess such a secret technique, capable of instantly boosting your combat power!"

Skull, who had already been entangled, seemed to have fallen unconscious, his eyes closing as he sank into darkness. Medusa's tornado slowed its rotation: "So what? Your secret technique must be some kind of double-injury magic! Although it directly boosted your combat power, if time passes, you'll definitely be seriously injured. Perhaps, if you hold out for too long, your life will be in danger!"

"So what if it is? What can you do to me now?" The old man in black robes was very domineering, but when he saw the snake king entangled with Skull, he shook his head helplessly!

"Release him! This is my last request. If you release him, I don't care if I die in front of you!" The old man in black robes seemed to have given up on his life all of a sudden.

Her entire body, which had been bulging in black robes, now appeared somewhat gaunt. The pitying look in her eyes made Medusa frown.

"Why?" Medusa frowned, looking very puzzled.

"Hehe, do you know why I joined that organization? Because I could avenge the one I loved! But, while I did get my revenge, she's gone forever! Only this kid remains. Hehe... not bad, at least he has some talent! It's just that sometimes he's too straightforward!"

The old man in black robes sighed, saying helplessly, "If she hadn't married that old devil, she wouldn't have died! If the old devil hadn't died so young, he wouldn't have been unable to protect her! If it weren't for..."

As he finished speaking, the old man in black robes seemed to be weeping. Below, Angelina suddenly seemed to awaken, asking, "You mean, Skull is that madman's disciple? Then how come... he doesn't know his power?"

"Mad Demon, hehe, Mad Demon was originally the ancestor of using killing intent. The current Skull doesn't learn killing intent from the Mad Demon. Hehe, how about we make a deal! Lin Peng, you'd better come out!"

The old man in black robes gave a series of bitter smiles, helplessly dissipating all his strength.

Chapter Eighty: The Obsessive Demon

Clutching his chest, Lin Peng shook his head helplessly and appeared directly above the Snake King's head, sitting cross-legged. In that instant, he really was just a hair's breadth away from being hit. He could enter the space very quickly if he was in good condition.

However, that strike was simply too fast. There was no time to dodge it at all. Even after entering the space, a murderous aura still struck him directly.

If it weren't for the power of space that seemed to weaken that killing intent, he might already be dead! Looking at the somewhat aged old man in black robes, Lin Peng smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect you to know I wasn't dead!"

Shia and Angelina below both breathed a sigh of relief. They even felt a little annoyed with Lin Peng. However, seeing the bright red blood still flowing from the spot he was covering, they didn't say anything.

With a faint chuckle, the black-robed elder seemed to be relaxing, yet his body was already strained from the exertion. That instantaneous boost to power was indeed formidable.

However, the side effects were also ridiculously severe. For example, the old man in black robes now had a trembling voice, barely able to speak.

"Lin Peng, that little girl beside you must be a descendant of the Stephen family, right? Heh, I did participate in that massacre back then! But speaking of which, the Stephen family was once a true god-war family. Who would have thought they would decline to such a state! Nobody could have predicted it!"

The old man in black robes seemed to be recalling something, and even seemed to be in a brief moment of dazedness.

Angelina's small body began to tremble slightly. Shia gently patted her back, which eased her trembling a little, but her red eyes revealed that Angelina was definitely emotionally unstable at this moment.

"I'm ready to offer all my strength now. I only hope you'll spare Skull's life. If you let him go this time, you won't have to worry about me next time! And I can also reveal a little something to you. The traitor's true location! Of course, it's just a small outpost!"

The old man in black coughed a few times, then flew directly to Lin Peng's side. Lin Peng placed a hand on his chest, but said nothing.

Without making the slightest movement, the black-robed elder whispered a few words in his ear. At the same time, the Snake King narrowed his eyes, seemingly listening intently.

After the old man in black robes finished speaking, he looked up at the sky and sighed, "Madman, you've always been ahead of me, but this time, you didn't catch up!"

Lin Peng smiled faintly, as if aggravating his wound, his eye twitched slightly: "Aren't you really afraid that I won't let Skull off the hook?"

Lin Peng held the old man in high regard. At least, in a world where strength reigned supreme, he hadn't given up on his convictions.

Lin Peng had a deep understanding of the kind of persistence in one's heart.

The old man in black robes smiled and shook his head. Then, he looked at Medusa, who still had a puzzled expression in the sky: "I can tell that you must have participated in the War of the Gods! Hehe... I didn't expect to meet someone who participated in the War of the Gods."

Without waiting for Medusa's reply, she slammed her hand down towards Lin Peng. A surge of frenzied power seemed to have found an outlet.

In an instant, it surged directly into Lin Peng's body. It carried a faint dark color, and even seemed to have turned into dark demonic flames.

It actually began to slowly burn within Lin Peng's body. No one tried to stop it. At least, they all held this elder in high regard.

Moreover, Skull was truly unconscious at this moment. He was utterly useless. With the Serpent King's care, it was truly unbelievable that a Demon Emperor-level expert could turn the world upside down!

After a long while—it seemed like a very long time had passed, yet it also seemed like only a moment had gone by—the old man, with a smile on his face, slowly closed his eyes.

His entire body, which was already like a skeleton, was now a true skeleton with no flesh left. The night breeze gently blew, lifting his black robe.

The "skull" frame also drifted away in the gentle breeze. Lin Peng took a deep breath; it seemed he hadn't actually experienced any sudden surge of power.

Even the wound on his chest still throbbed with excruciating pain. The space, however, seemed to have suddenly expanded! He frowned and turned to look at Fario and the other man.

"Lin Peng, we've lost!" Fario lowered his head immediately. Originally, Kebels had been somewhat stunned. He hadn't expected this to happen.

Now, looking at that huge green snake, it was definitely a being of Demon Lord level strength! He couldn't help but feel extremely shocked.

Demon Lord level! Whether it's the initial or intermediate stage, killing him would be incredibly easy. The way he looked at Lin Peng now seemed somewhat strange!

This guy is actually sitting on the Demon Lord's head! Could it be that this guy is the master of this snake king? It's really hard to understand. He's only at the Great Demon King level, even though he just received the inheritance of power. But the aura he's showing now is barely that of a Great Demon King.

Such a powerful demon king actually controlled a demon lord-level expert!

The Snake King's eyes darted around a few times before it whispered, "Lin Peng, you just gained so much power, why don't you share some with me? That way, I'll let you sit on my head a little longer!"

The Snake King, of course, knew that the energy seemed to have been directly absorbed by that space. However, as long as Lin Peng was alive, that space was under his control.

If we could get even a little bit of that support, I wonder if we could take another step forward!

Lin Peng chuckled wryly, about to reply, when Medusa in the sky suddenly frowned once more, coldly gazing in one direction.

"Lin Peng, quite a few people are coming this way! The one fleeing in front should be that Greenb! The one chasing behind seems to be a fairly strong expert! Hmm, roughly equivalent to a Demon Lord! He's just one step short!" Medusa said softly, while Lin Peng, on the Snake King's head, felt another headache coming on.

A master who's almost at the Demon Lord level is only considered decent in strength! Damn it, what exactly is your strength?

……

On the Luo Ling River side, Lilac looked excitedly towards the Dark Forest on the other side. Inside, there was a magic circle said to contain a pool of energy.

As a master of magic circles, he currently serves as the president of the magic circle branch of the Dark Sage Guild. However, his passion is not power.

More emphasis was placed on the study of magic circles.

"Teacher, why are you so agitated? Anyway, once this battle is over, we can go in and give them some advice!" Sigurd looked like he was eager for his teacher to succeed, as if he couldn't wait to go over and slap Rilak twice.

Mike sat down on the ground, looking listless. However, as if he suddenly remembered something, he laughed and said, "By the way, that little girl next to Lin Peng who's really good at setting up magic circles, she looks quite pretty!"

At the mention of Angelina, Lillack's eyes lit up again. That illusion magic circle had truly broadened his horizons. At least, he still couldn't set it up himself!

Although he was already a mid-level Demon Emperor, he always judged magic arrays by the standard of those who had reached the highest level.

Sigurah snorted and then said, "Miss Medusa is even more powerful at setting up magic arrays, why don't you mention that?" Of course, he also saw that Miken didn't dare to offend Medusa at all.

Medusa possesses immense power; at the very least, she subdued even a dark dragon like Xiaolong. Even Xiaoxiao, a Demon Emperor-level being, seemed to be quite afraid of Medusa.
