Duke's Wife

Chapter 10: Chapter 10: Blessed by a disaster



Since Lin Peng had lived in the palace for such a long time, tonight was the first time he had come out. It had to be said that the night colours of this Demon Realm were still extraordinarily mesmerising. The double moon was now only one, shining brightly and dragging out long shadows. Pulling Angelina's small, boneless hand, the heart can't tell you the sense of relief. In the palace, although the food was good and lived well. Even, one could still see the two top-notch great beauties on a regular basis.

  However, that indescribable depression still made Lin Peng feel bad.

  'By the way, little Angelina, how did you come from wandering for so many years?' Lin Peng was idly bored, and there weren't many people on the streets at night. What there were, were just some drunken drunks and frozen shrunken beggars.

  Angelina frowned slightly and lightly, she disliked the fact that Lin Peng had added a small word in front of her name. Turning to the beggars on the side of the road, she smiled slightly, 'Look at them, they are still alive as usual! At least, they are alive now!'

  Lin Peng instantly froze, standing in place without moving much. Pulling Angelina's hand tighter, he sighed, 'Yeah, they're at least alive now!' Saying that, disengaging Angelina's hand, he slowly walked towards this beggar.

  From within his own money bag, he took out two dark gold coins and threw them in front of the beggar. Turning his head towards Angelina, he smiled, seemingly saying, as long as I'm here, it's impossible for you to be in such a situation.

  And at that very moment, the beggar's eyes seemed to have flashed a glimmer of light. Then disappeared into the turbid eyes, as if, still that dull frozen general. Angelina's curved moon like eyes narrowed, also smiled.

  'Hey ... seems like you guys are laughing a lot! How about ... telling me and letting me have fun too?' At this moment, in the tavern, a burly man with a drunken breath flashed out. With a stagger, he reached Lin Peng's side and said with fuzzy drunken eyes.

  Angelina's mouth parted, she disliked the smell of alcohol on men. Such a man would be a waste in the Demon World. A man who kept a clear head from time to time was a powerful man.

  Growing up, that man had taught her this way.

  However, Lin Peng clearly did not have such a habit. Shaking his head helplessly, he patted the drunkard's shoulder and said, 'Man, you've had too much to drink, you'd better go home and hug your wife to sleep!'

  The drunkard shook his head, pulled Lin Peng's hand with one hand, and slowly got up with one hand supporting the ground. The body's natural movements, even Lin Peng couldn't find anything that could be broken. But things were just the opposite, the scorching flames suddenly rose up.

  Without warning, there wasn't even time to react. At the same time, that drunkard seemed to be very uncomfortable in general frantically flapping about. Lin Peng, whose entire body was originally covered in flames as well, was slapped and sent flying. It crashed into the wall, smashing out a trail of spider marks.

  And the drunken man slowly stiffened his limbs under the flames' barbecue and collapsed to the ground in a whirlwind. The temperature of the flames seemed to be extremely high, and the moment the drunkard fell to the ground, he turned into flying ashes. Angelina's pair of curved moon eyes stared blankly, as if she had not yet come to her senses from the shock.

  On the contrary, the old beggar on one side, jumped up in an instant: 'Help ah, murder. Help ah ...' That kind of old and hoarse voice, the penetrating power is extremely powerful. In an instant, it attracted the people in the tavern!

  Angelina also woke up in this instant, crying and rushing towards Lin Peng's side.

  However, at the time when the old beggar cried out, how could the surprise in his eyes not be concealed. Because, at this time, Lin Peng's whole body was not only not harmed by anything; what was even more shocking was that those flames had all disappeared. Without leaving a single trace!

Angelina had already attached herself to look at Lin Peng nervously, her eyes trembling slightly before she breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Peng's breathing was even and there was no trace of what looked like an injury. Moreover, the clothes that were originally supposed to be burnt off were even less tattered at this point.

  It could be said that if it wasn't for the fact that Lin Peng lying on the ground was so real, perhaps Lori still thought that she had dreamt a dream.

  After a burst of screaming, the old beggar slowly stopped and frowned at Lin Peng's side. At this time, the demons in the tavern, have appeared in the street.

  Looking at the ashes on the ground, already over the wall, seems to be mixed to the 'soft' demon, as well as a little girl who looks like a dark elf. At once, a burst of inexplicable.

  The old beggar did not seem to want to explain anything, while the demons were arguing about who was the one who had guessed the truth, silently left the place. When the demons stopped quarrelling, the city defence team also managed to arrive late.

  ...

  What kind of person Lin Peng was, no one in the current Dark Moon City might know. However, his head alone was definitely something that both the Duke and the Princess wanted. At a certain point, even if anyone was sacrificed, this wise man would be kept alive first.

  However, looking at Lin Peng, who had no injuries on his entire body, but ... was still unconscious, the anger of the Duke and Princess Lord was ignited namelessly.

  'Nadas, what is going on! If ... you don't give me a satisfactory answer, you ... won't have to see tomorrow's sun!' The princess asked in a cold voice. There was no more of the original flirtatiousness or that playful side.

  Without anyone else saying it, Nadas knew that if he really didn't have a reason, he wouldn't be able to escape this today. From the last time he knew about the Duke and the Princess, he has been on tenterhooks, and now ... what should come is still coming!

  'This ... Your Highness ... actually, I don't know exactly what the situation is. At that time, Miss Angelina who was there should, should know it!' Nadas tried his best not to let his voice turn into a trill and looked towards Angelina with a look of relief.

  Angelina looked at Lin Peng, who was breathing evenly on the bed, and faintly said, 'Needless to say, it must have been Jace, who came that day, who did the trick!'

  'Today, it's rare to go out for a bit. Lin Peng must go to the tavern to have a look, but, when he arrived at the entrance of the tavern, a drunkard suddenly appeared. All of a sudden, he bumped into Lin Peng and fell down. When Lin Peng went to help him, flames suddenly emerged from his entire body. It was that kind of clear yellow flame, so hot that even my hair seemed to wither!' Angelina said, picking up the dark green hair, the original brightness was gone.

  'Then ... how come this guy is fine?' The Princess looked somewhat doubtfully at Lin Peng lying on the bed, her beautifully curved eyebrows wrinkled.

  Lord Duke, even more incredible, said, 'Impossible, that is definitely the clarified earth fire, ordinary demons, as long as they are burned to absolutely will become a pile of earth. Look at Lin Peng's appearance ... it seems ... that nothing happened at all!'

  And at this time, Angelina, also faintly shook her head, indicating that she was not clear. However, the heart already understood. Remembering the first time he met Lin Peng in the wilderness on the outskirts of the abyss, he had indicated with himself that he could eat flames.

  And in fact, he was indeed immune to flames. However, Angelina also did not expect that this flame immunity would be so powerful that even the Clarity Earth Fire could be immunised away! One had to know that unlike that kind of mortal fire, or the flames spat out by magical beasts, the temperature of this kind of flame with attributes was truly high. To be immune to such flames, it had to be said that this guy called Lin Peng's talent was not ordinarily powerful.

  'Hmph, there's no need to ask, it must be that Jace fellow who messed up! I'm going to ask for the offence now!' The princess snorted coldly and squinted at Nadas. Nadas decisively drew his sword directly and droned, 'Your Highness, I'll go and finish that guy off right now!'

  'Alright, it's rare for me to sleep, can you guys stop making so much noise!' The sudden voice caused the Duke, the Princess, and Angelina to be pleasantly surprised. Unexpectedly, this Lin Peng had woken up!

In other words, there was really nothing wrong with him at all now.

  'Think it over with your brain, just that Jace guy, can he come up with such a good idea?' Lin Peng strained to sit up with his hands supporting the bed, 'Hey, that Fowles guy, he's still really good! A flame like that, how the hell did it hide on that damn drunkard. To come so suddenly, if it wasn't for my talent, I might have really died from that flame!'

  The Duke and the Princess looked at each other and said, 'What kind of talent is it that can resist such a flame. If, you are now a Demon King level expert, it would be normal for you to have no damage at all. But ... the current you!'

  Speaking here, both sisters were not speaking directly.

  In the Demon World, if one said that a person's strength was not working, it would be absolutely tiresome. Perhaps, it would even cause a duel between the two to be possible. However, unexpectedly, Lin Peng not only didn't get angry, but also said smilingly, ''It's enough for me to have a head, and the talent is just ... not afraid of any flames. Other than that, it is nothing. Even the corresponding spell power is not there. Then again, it's a bit faster. But ... it doesn't seem to be called speed compared to the two adults!'

  Looking at the two sisters' speechless eyes, Lin Peng's heart was overjoyed. Unexpectedly, this time after automatically absorbing the flames, it would bring so many benefits. Firstly, one's own strength became very powerful. As for exactly how powerful, Lin Peng couldn't say. Anyway, this was not the place to test it.

  Secondly, the fire in his chest, if it was originally only half the size of his little thumb, now, it was at least the length of his middle finger, and the width of two middle fingers. Moreover, the kind of heat flow in the body's meridians was surprisingly even more massive. It seems, it also carries other abilities in general.

  Should, immediately test it out.

  Lin Peng thought so and opened his mouth, ''Lord Duke, execute the Abyssal Plan immediately! Perhaps ... this Jace City Magistrate can't wait to let his own men go to their deaths!'

  Turning to the other side, Lin Peng began to laugh loudly.

  The Duke and the Princess looked at each other, and after nodding their heads in a whirlwind, they led the people out. Only Angelina, looking at Lin Peng's eyes, changed somewhat. This guy, just now, had definitely lied to the Duke and Princess.
