Chapter 53 - Chapter 53 - The Underhandedness

The most famous city in the Red Devil Territory was the Fire Flare City where the current Lord lived. The entire city seemed to be built on a volcano. The city wall, which was as high as thirty metres, shone with a faint red light under the red moon. The entire thing looked like a real active volcano.

  The huge ten-metre gates were made of the rarest mixed metals. The whole thing looked thick and heavy with some ancient atmosphere. The magic lamps hanging at the top of that building's gate shone with a faint red light.

  From the front, it was almost as if a flooding flaming beast was lying on the ground, waiting for people to enter his mouth. 

  Just as he reached the city gates, that kind of dry heat with a tyrannical aura came crashing down on him. However, such an aura instead made Lin Peng somewhat joyful. It seemed that the entire body had become extremely relaxed.

  Fire Flare City, covered an area of tens of thousands of kilometres. It could be said that it was three times as large as Dark Moon City as such. The entire city, had a population of about three million. Those mobile populations, not counting. In the Dark Empire, such a city could be said to be a truly large city. 

  Of course, only a lord like Jerry could truly subdue this territory.

  The Red Demon Territory was also a paradise for fire demons, here, there were countless volcanoes. On the other side of the abyss and then in the direction of the Red Demon Territory, there were hundreds of volcanoes. Among them, at least ten of them were active volcanoes.

  Therefore, the fire element here was also exceptionally thick. After Lin Peng quietly toned down for a while, he slowly began to relax his body. The fire in his chest seemed to slowly inhale the surrounding fire element as if it was automatic.

  The body, moreover, flowed with heat from time to time. The Flame Warhorse also seemed to be exceptionally fond of this place, treading lightly, slowly arriving at the city gates. 

  At this time, there was a tall and handsome young man standing at the entrance of the city, leading a group of people who looked like officials to wait respectfully. It seemed that Shea wasn't a very powerful duke. But at least, it was also a member of the royal family, and some etiquette was still needed.

  The young man appeared to have a height of nearly two metres, and his lanky figure looked extremely secure. A handsome face with a smile, eyes extremely good-looking. It seemed that every glance carried a hint of sparkle.

  Stepping forward, he bowed slightly towards the Blazing Chariot, 'Deputy Commander of the Third Legion of the Dark Empire, Kerry, see His Highness the Duke!' Saying that, the somewhat taut military uniform crumpled as he bowed and saluted.

  Lin Peng's mouth pursed, but he did not expect that this guy was still a deputy military commander of a legion. According to the rank system of the Dark Empire, at least, it is also a Lieutenant General. Then ... at least a Demon Emperor level expert.

  From that kind of lanky figure, it could be seen that it was definitely that kind of extremely strong power level figure. Moreover, it was still with the fire attribute. After all, the people of the Red Demon Territory were almost exclusively fire-attribute people.

  Shia came out of the carriage, still with the same cold colour. Looking at this stout and handsome Kerry in front of him the corner of his mouth hooked slightly and coldly said, 'En, lead the way!'

  Lin Peng was a bit surprised, Shea was also too not giving this guy face. Carey, should be Jerry's eldest son. Jerry had a total of eight sons, only, there were only two of them that were productive.

  The other six were just a bunch of losers. Of course, those two sons who were promising were also first-class talents. It was said that one specialised in warriors. A fire-attribute combat skill was extremely strong.

  The other, on the other hand, is a dual cultivator of magic and martial arts. It seems to be at the level of a Daemon King, and ... is deeply transmitted by Jerry's favourite.

  Shia once again entered the carriage and walked into the city along with Carey, whose face was a little hard to see. When they had just entered, the city walls were surprisingly behind two small volcanoes like small hills. When walking through thousands of metres, it was only then that one could see rows and rows of rather neatly planned houses.

  As soon as he stepped into the ground, he felt some burning heat travelling from the soles of his feet to his entire body. It seemed that the entire body was soothed. Lin Peng looked at the ground with some surprise, his eyes faintly glowing.

He didn't realise that it was actually a pavement made of volcanic ore. No wonder, it would have such a burning sensation. If someone with the fire attribute were to fight on this, they would definitely have their attack power stacked exponentially.

  And those with other attributes should all be weakened quite a bit.

  Nodding slightly, it looked like if one were to attack this city, it would basically be impossible to take it down without a multiplier of three or more. Moreover,... even if it was attacked, it would still suffer heavy losses.

  After walking for about almost an hour, this came to the city master's mansion in the centre of the city. But ... how you look at it, this city lord's mansion seems to be a castle. It was also a volcano that slowly rose directly from the ground in general.

  A volcano as high as twenty or so metres, with some red light at the shattering point. Fire Devil, it was true that he loved flames just like the Inferno Devil. If one were to cultivate in such a place, one would definitely be several times faster is possible.

  Carey laughed and looked at the somewhat envious Lin Peng with the corner of his mouth hooked: ''En, this should be Duke Hia's staff officer! Oh, unexpectedly, you are also of the fire attribute. Oh, if you like it, you can just stay here!'

  After saying that, he even blinked his eyes.

  Lin Peng smiled bitterly and shook his head, 'This, I still like Dark Moon City. This city, it's just too big. Moreover, without acquaintances, it will be uneasy!' 

  'What's peaceful and uneasy, we still don't want you!' Abel directly jumped off the carriage and said with a cold snort.

  Carey frowned and slanted a glance towards Abel, then turned and continued to smile, 'If you don't know each other well, you can get acquainted slowly. On a volcano like this, how can you not get acquainted?'

  Saying that, he had already started walking towards the volcano, the steps that were like burning flames. Walking from the bottom of the mountain to the top, it wasn't a matter of whether it was tiring or not. Rather, it was a matter of whether it was hot or not, and ordinary people, would have long since been unable to stand it.

  Even a small expert with the strength of an Archdemon like Nadas was somewhat unable to resist wiping the beads of sweat. On the contrary, Lin Peng, Shia, Medusa, and Angelina seemed to be walking like people who were fine.

  The wall of the city gate, wasn't very high, at most about ten metres. However, compared to the city wall outside, this one was just too hot. The temperature was at least around 40 degrees. If some Demons who cultivated the water system were to live towards this place, they basically wouldn't be able to find any water element, at most, there would be a little more water vapour.

  Passing through the thousand-metre square and the garden with fire spirit flowers in the middle, he finally arrived at the hall.

  It was only upon arriving at the hall that one could realise that there seemed to be some kind of magic formation here. It wasn't very hot, nor was it very cold. There was a feeling of warmth, and an even more comfortable feeling. The hall was very large and seemed to be like a meeting hall.

  The uppermost, such as the throne of a red dragon bench, he was sitting in a stout, not ... should say fat simply not a person in general man. The beard is extremely long, even the hair is all flaming red.

  And regular people almost the height, also about one metre eight or so. However, the whole shoulder is twice as wide as a normal person. Moreover, the waistline ... amount ... seems to have no waistline at all. The entire body, all seemed to grow so wide.

  Shia looked at the man on the seat, and the man on the seat also looked at Shia. After a long time, a loud laugh like thunder appeared. The entire hall seemed to start vibrating in general, and those officials standing on both sides, even more so, some of them started to slowly spill blood from the corners of their mouths.

  'Hahahaha ... Little Shia, I can't imagine that after many years of absence, it has become so beautiful! Hahaha ... en, good, if it's okay, it should be more to uncle Jerry here to play!' Said, the big hand violently in the red dragon seat of the dragon head, bang, there is a kind of earthquake sound appeared.

  The corners of Lin Peng s mouth twitched for a while, Jerry ... couldn t imagine that the strength of the Demon Emperor level was so powerful. Then ... what about the Devil Emperor, the Devil God?

  After shaking his head, he suddenly sobered up and turned to look at the man on the seat.

  'Uncle Jerry, I wouldn't dare to stay here with you permanently. In case, who will be responsible if I get roasted?' There was a hint of coldness as he spoke. It seemed that the entire hall was starting to turn cold.

  Lin Peng nodded his head, just in time to be seen by the youth standing at the head of the left column of officials. Eyes narrowing slightly, the youth asked with interest, 'Sister Shia, this one, what kind of person is he again? To see my father and not even kneel!'

When Shea was just about to explain, Jerry cooperated by releasing an extremely powerful aura. The civil officials standing in the ranks of those civil officials did not seem to be able to withstand it all at once, and surprisingly, a few of them directly collapsed with bleeding air holes.

  However, Lin Peng still held his head up against it. The entire body, it seemed, began to tingle. Unable to resist, it began to tremble. Shia was startled and was just about to say something when Jerry once again released a powerful aura.

  The aura overlapped with the previous one, and even, even Shia trembled a little. Lin Peng was even more needless to say, and was on the verge of bleeding directly from all seven holes. However, the corner of his mouth was already carrying a trace of blood.

  His body was slightly bent, as if he was being pressed down by a huge mountain.

  The eyes were extremely resolute, coldly looking at Jerry: ''Lord Duke, I am Duke Shia's staff officer. But ... in the magic world, a duke's subordinate officer, it seems that there is no need to salute another duke!'

  As he spoke, blood-red blood had slowly flowed from the corner of his mouth. A kind of pride from within made Lin Peng refuse to kneel. It seemed that the fire in his chest was of the same mind. Surprisingly, it continued to inspire a stream of heat that flowed throughout his body, making Lin Peng even more powerful.

  The aura began to become thicker, and it seemed that, the air in the entire hall began to become thicker. When inhaling, it was surprisingly that difficult. Shia's eyes were getting colder and colder, while Medusa was still that expressionless.

  The most powerful one was Angelina. At this moment, although she was half bent over, she was still holding on. On the contrary, it was Nadas, who had long since slumped to the ground and almost couldn't catch his breath.
