Duke's Wife

　Under the blazing red moon, the soil that was like sand rose up in steaming heat. There was no sign of any living creature in the sky. When a person walked on this soil, there was actually some trembling and flickering sensation, as if, one had entered an illusionary realm.

　　Lin Peng finished the last drop of water, shook the water bottle and sighed helplessly, ''Lei, are you sure this is the direction. It's been two days since we walked, how come we still haven't seen anything like an earth fort. As I recall, last time, we each scattered for a few days, so we shouldn't have travelled back and forth so quickly!'

　　Ray, who was walking at the front, frowned slightly and turned to look at Lin Peng, 'As I said, they summoned the Snake Demon with a special technique. And Fowles said that the only way to truly find the Snake Demon is to go through the yellow earth behind the middle section. At that time, Fowles was afraid that in case you guys escaped, you would come to find the snake demon's trouble. Then ... Lord Duke and Her Royal Highness will absolutely strike. So ... the exact location, I don't know. But ... I believe ... that as long as you walk on you will definitely be able to find it.'

　　After saying that, he also ignored Lin Peng who was complaining a little, and directly turned around and walked away.

　　Of course, Lin Peng was actually not really complaining, he was just a little annoyed! It had already been two days of walking, and if he continued, perhaps he really couldn't even find water. In case, it was a trick by Falls to entice people, then they would really be buried here.

　　After exchanging a glance with Nadas, he bitterly smiled and shook his head repeatedly, but still caught up with Ray. This brat, very stubborn. At the same time, the competitive spirit was also very strong. However, in terms of caution, it really wasn't any worse than Lin Peng and Nadas.

　　On the first day, the killing snake hidden in the soil was killed by him. Of course, it was also heard from him that only true Demon King level magical beasts, within a certain range, no other magical beasts could exist.

　　Therefore, even though he was going to die of thirst, Ray still insisted, absolutely in this place that looked like a desert.

　　The three of them travelled at an extremely fast speed, and when the red flare of the red moon was about to go down, the reflection of the purple canopy at the edge of the sky, the earth fortress in front of them that was suddenly like an illusion finally appeared.

　　Lei grinned, pointing at the imposing though not grandiose, such as a bandit's cottage in front of him, laughing loudly, ''You guys see, I was right! Haha ... finally found it!'

　　Lin Peng wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and nodded with a smile. But also immediately, he became serious, 'Your task is done, below, it's me and Nadas!'

　　With that, he took a step forward and led Nadas towards the earth fortress.

　　However, Ray in the back continued to follow the two as if he hadn't heard them. This made Lin Peng laugh, and with his hands crossed, he turned around and drank, 'Are you guys disobeying orders? I said, your mission, it's done!'

　　Nadas was also staring at Ray with a ferocious look on his face, as if he would immediately start a fight at the drop of a hat.

　　Lei was not afraid, still speaking indifferently like that, 'The Snake Demon is a Demon King level magical beast, for you two high ranked demons to go, one more me is not much, one less me is definitely not less. And ... my stealth technique really counts, it's a little safer than you guys!'

　　The corner of Lin Peng's mouth twitched a bit, patting Lei's shoulder, 'I understand your heart, but ... you have to know that we're just going to test the waters. Or rather, just going to try our luck. Two high level demons, fighting a Demon King, that's a death sentence. Are we ... that stupid?'

Nadas also nodded, originally being taller than two metres was going to be stronger than Lin Peng and Ray. Therefore, directly patting Ray's head, as if educating a small child, he said, 'Alright, good boy, go back and wait for us!'

The two turned around once more, just as they were about to leave, Ray was still standing in that same spot. Quietly looking at the two, at the same time, a face of determination look.

　　Lin Peng some can not stand it, like a teacher, in teaching a pig that depressed. Hatefully turned around, just wanted to open his mouth to curse, when the roaring sound from the side of the earth fort appeared. The loud ringing sound made the eardrums seem a little raw. At the same time, it also caused the earth, which was as dry as a desert, to start vibrating.

　　The three of them all fixed their eyes towards the earthen fort's side, and a staggering scene appeared.

　　The huge lizard-like head was raised high, staring at the sky. The snake-like body, on the other hand, was hovering at the apex of the earthen fort. It seemed that, under the snake's body, the somewhat young, sharp claws could still be seen.

　　The sense of oppression brought about by a body of more than ten feet caused Lin Peng to be somewhat surprised. Anymore, a piece of scale armour was as big as himself, could this not be a shock?

　　And when the three of them, Lin Peng, realised that the loud noise that was created was because of another relatively small magical beast and snake demon unleashed in a battle against each other, they closed their mouths even more. An eagle that was like an eagle made up of flames could not be seen in its true form at all. However, from the extent of the flames entwined, it seemed that it should have pressed the Snake Demon one step.

　　However, the body was more than twice as small as the snake demon.

　　Just now, it was the Flame Bird's Flame Streamer and the Snake Demon's Sand and Earth Shield that collided together, and the vibration that was caused. Right now, the scattered flames could still be seen, as well as the streams of earth that had re-transformed into a sand-like substance.

　　'This ... is so ... powerful! Is this the strength of a Demon King level?'

　　Lin Peng frowned, his eyes narrowing slightly, 'No... perhaps, both demonic beasts are on the verge of being promoted to the level of a Great Demon King. It should, be at the peak of Demon King strength.' Speaking affirmatively, it caused Ray and Nadas to be a little surprised.

　　In their hearts, they thought from time to time, you know again.

　　Of course, Lin Peng still really knew. When he woke up that day, the comprehended power began to detect Shia and Erin. The colour of Irene's heat was a true red, and amongst the deep red, there seemed to be a bit of purple. It seemed that it should be the peak strength of a Demon King.

　　Lundy's, which seemed to be a clear yellow colour, should be an Archdemon.

　　As for Nadas and the others, they were all of an earthy yellow colour. Obviously, it should be high level demons.

　　And Shia ... was purple, a really deep purple. Then ... should at least be more powerful than red! Should be, the following levels, the colours are clear. In terms of strength, all of them are much more powerful than Shea.

　　Then ... Hia's, is the strength of a Daemon King.

　　And now, these two magical beasts, surprisingly deep red in colour, with a bit of purple. At least, it was about the same level as Irene. Then ... it is at least the peak strength of a Demon King.

　　The strength of a peak Demon King, is this the strength of a peak Demon King?

　　Originally, Lin Peng had been thinking in his heart that since he had taken out the great demon, his strength was not good. Then ... if the Demon King is there, at most with a few high level demons maybe he can win! However, after thinking about it now, he suddenly realised ... that even if hundreds of high ranked demons went up, it might not work.

　　'Concealment! Otherwise ... we won't be able to withstand the aftermath of such an impact!' Lin Peng gave a low shout and immediately ran towards the other side where there were some highlands in general. The speed was extremely fast, and by the time Nadas and Lei reacted, they had all run out nearly a hundred metres.

　　After the three of them ran to the back of the high ground, like a rock-like huge stone pier hiding, once again towards the two beasts fighting place to see.

　　At this time, the Flame Bird was absolutely dominant, and every time the Snake Demon used the spears made of sand and earth to charge at the Flame Bird, it was always able to avoid them at the fastest speed. In the air, it had just become the overlord.

　　And in the air aiming for the ground, it was truly a bully. The flame missiles that weren't impacted down, each one, at least, was as huge as a dozen metres. For a while, the earth fort was on the verge of becoming a ruin.

　　The sound of the not explosions was deafening, and the flames that came out of each explosion were even more so flying away. If Lin Peng's three people were still standing in place over there, they would definitely be the ones to die.

　　Rumble ...

Once again, the flame missiles were blocked by the sand and soil shield After the two-phase explosion, the snake demon violently scurried up. The speed was extremely fast, just like a snake that scurried up suddenly and wanted to bite.

　　Even with the speed of the flaming bird, it still didn't escape. It was bitten on the wing, and all of a sudden, the snake demon was flung towards the middle of the earth fortress.

　　Boom ... Another loud bang, the high sand and dust burst open, flooding the body of the flame bird.

'No way, this is okay!' Lin Peng looked dumbfounded, the Flame Bird, which had always had the upper hand, was so suddenly given a blow that it really did sound like it was injured as it let out a mournful chirping sound.

　　At the same time, a pair of bird grasps that burned like steel broke through the smoke all of a sudden and grasped at the Snake Demon. This time, similarly, the snake demon was also heavily injured. Struggling to break away from the bird grasps, its body was even entwined towards the flame bird. It seemed that it wasn't afraid of the flames outside the flame bird's body, and it directly tried to wrap its life around the flame bird. The final battle between the two beasts was such a physical battle.

　　Seeing, the flame bird relative to the snake demon, smaller body is about to be entangled when. The bird's beak, which had originally been as quiet as a giant long sword, suddenly shot out. Like a woodpecker, it pecked at the snake's neck that wanted to be grabbed by the claws.

　　'Silk silk ...'

　　The snake demon looked like it had endured great pain, and the tongue that was as long as a giant sail stuck out directly. However, the body was still twisted up with that brute force. All of a sudden, it entered a stalemate.

　　Lin Peng now had an extremely undaunted thought of directly charging up and killing that snake demon. But ... even with this kind of injury, the snake demon's seven inches were even pecked and scratched with snake blood soaring. It was more like rain in general streaking! However, the snake demon still tightly wrapped around the flame bird. 

　　At this time, it was obviously not very wise. With a casual flick of the snake demon's tail, perhaps one's bones would shatter and explode in blood!

　　With his fists clenched tightly, it seemed that the black demonic eyes were somewhat reddened.

　　'Almost there!' After Lin Peng muttered to himself, his body leapt up and launched himself in the direction of the earthen fortress. The speed was so fast that from a distance, one could see the faint flames emitted from both feet.

　　And when Lin Peng had rushed out hundreds of metres, Nadas and Lei finally reacted. In their hearts, they exclaimed, 'This damn guy, doesn't want to die!'

　　However, the two men's bodies, too, rushed out without hesitation. Desperately rushing to catch up with Lin Peng's pace, anxiously even shouted, 'You give me back, idiot ... back ... piggyback ... '

　　It seemed that, at this moment, they were just good brothers, not superior and subordinate.
