Chapter 57 -  Chapter 57 - A Big Gamble

 With a faint red light and flames, the speed of the dagger was extremely fast. Moreover, it was actually slashing towards one's own throat. If he was really cut, he would basically be dead. With a slight point of his left foot, Lin Peng's speed increased even more as he directly avoided this strike. With a cold face, his palm directly grabbed into a fist. With a whirring sound, it also directly burst into flames.

  After dodging his neck backwards, he directly punched out.

  With a bang, a silhouette directly crashed through several trees before disappearing in the smoke.

  Lin Peng laughed coldly, so close, still want to escape? Eyes slightly closed, a heat sensation power directly penetrated through the countless trees and began to sweep up. Only, what made him somewhat surprised was that there was not the slightest movement to follow. Moreover, it seemed that there was no one at all in general.

  This time, it rather made his heart startled. This kind of heat sensation, unless it was much higher than his own strength. Right now, his own strength at the peak of the Demon King level, then, unless it was a Demon Emperor level expert.

  However, there was no need to send a Demon Emperor level expert just to assassinate himself. At all, there was no need for that. Moreover,... the current self, perhaps a senior Great Demon King level expert, wouldn't be able to defeat it.

  'Ability?' His mouth opened lightly, and he said with a sigh.

  At this time, there was once again a fluctuation in the forest. Countless fire elementals seemed to have encountered something and unexpectedly gathered in one direction. With a puff, those red maple trees even started to burn.

  The corner of Lin Peng's mouth ticked, using a large amount of fire elemental magic in front of him was completely looking for death. Coldly humming, the fire seed arrogantly directly snatched the fire element that had already gathered over.

  Such power seemed to immediately make that person who had been invisible in general freeze. Dumbfounded, a silhouette actually appeared. It looked, like a pile of flames. It seemed that the entire human figure was made of a flame.

  'Eh? Fireman?' Lin Peng froze, then laughed even more. Such a fire man, I wonder if it would be alright to directly absorb him. As he spoke, he even directly catalysed the fire, and the fire elements of the entire Red Maple Forest seemed to surge in towards his body.

  There is simply no extra other elements involved, just absorbing the fire element, it instantly caused a flame vortex like thing. In the midst of the whirlwind, it even directly turned Lin Peng into a fireman as well.

  Red light, fiery power, a huge vortex made up of one vortex. The fireman at a hundred metres seemed to be frightened all of a sudden and wanted to escape towards the back. However, now that the huge vortex had formed, such power was simply not something he could escape from. All of a sudden, after pausing his footsteps, it seemed that the pull was too great and slowly moved towards the maelstrom around Lin Peng.

  'You ... don't kill me, I'm from the Fire Demon clan. If ... you kill me, you will definitely be hunted down by the second young master!' After the entire body seemed to have begun to fade, a human form finally appeared.

  Only, at this moment, he was already so panicked that he wanted to beg for mercy. After the human form appeared, the face also appeared at the same time. It looked jealously obscene, as if the entire person was synonymous with obscenity.

  Looking at such a visage, the corner of Lin Peng's mouth twitched slightly, 'Fire Demon Clan?'

  The man thought that Lin Peng was intimidated and instantly became proud. With a tilt of his head, his chest was almost like a rooster, 'That's right, I'm from the Fire Demon clan. The demon race that is closest to the Inferno Demon clan. Oh, the knowledge element I cultivate is just that. On the contrary, if someone from the real clan had come, perhaps, you would have died by now!'

  As he spoke, he even looked at Lin Peng with a kind of contempt in general. This made Lin Peng so annoyed that he almost wanted to directly slaughter this guy. In order to extract even more words, Lin Peng could only act a little scared, 'So, this time it was your second young master who sent them?'

  The lewd man nodded his head once and looked at Lin Peng with an amused look, ''Unexpectedly, you're still quite bold. Surprisingly, you even dared to make a direct move on the second young master's inner circle. En, however, this time I am not your opponent. Next time then, perhaps it will be someone else who will deal with you.'

  Lin Peng nodded his head and pursed his mouth, 'Are the gong methods of your original family and your branch family different?'

  Not caring about Lin Peng's expression, at this moment, the lewd man was already arrogant to the extreme. Hehehe smiled, 'Of course, our branch family just cultivates the elements. It's just that we can manipulate the elements better. Therefore, we ourselves are closer to the fire element. And the people of this family, but they have cultivated their bodies to be the same as molten lava. Oh ... the current you, although the fire power is very powerful, however, as powerful as fire is, can it be a match for molten plasma? Hahaha ...'

  That kind of inserting his waist and laughing out in a rampant manner made Lin Peng very upset. Suddenly, the fire seemed to be even more angry than Lin Peng in general. Surprisingly, it directly gathered all the surrounding fire elements towards Lin Peng, and immediately, a small vortex appeared once again.

  Coldly, the lewd man directly leaned into this vortex. In an instant, the fire element was also swallowed cleanly, not even a single bit left. The entire person, seemingly all of a sudden, softly fell to the ground as if he was deflated.

  Those terrified eyes betrayed his heart.

  Lin Peng's mouth was held back as he fiercely blasted the lewd man's face with a fist. However, a stream of flames along with the fist directly smashed the lewd man into the middle of the ground, revealing a large pit that was two metres deep and more than ten metres wide coming out.

  This blow had definitely killed the lewd man as well.

  Casually making a handful of flames, the lewd man was instantly burnt cleanly. Laughing coldly, Lin Peng cupped his chin and laughed, ''It looks like this Jerry has really hidden a large portion of his power! According to what he said, they should almost have a big clan before ...'

  Thinking this way, Lin Peng had already arrived in the middle of the castle without realising it.

  However, it wasn't until there was a commotion from the people next to him that Lin Peng realised that something seemed to have gone wrong in general. Those civil officials, military officials and the like, were all running extremely fast in the direction of the council chamber.

  At the same time, amongst these passers-by, Lin Peng watched as the very reluctant Shia slowly followed in that direction. Upon seeing Lin Peng, her eyes lit up, and she immediately whispered, 'It seems, something has happened in the south-east of the Red Devil Territory, you and I will go together to take a look!'

  Lin Peng nodded slightly and followed to that council chamber.

  The council chamber was very large, and it could be said that it was worth a banquet room. There was a huge table, and beside it, there was even a separate seat sitting next to it. It seemed that these seats were the real land of the people in charge.

  Only after Jerry came in with his two sons and sat in the first seat did those other people who were whispering stop their words. Lin Peng had been listening attentively, and of course, Shea hadn't let such an opportunity pass.

  The approximate thing, is that those ranger organisations, suddenly attacked a city, and ... also directly robbed quite a few things. At the same time, it seemed to be related to some personnel of the Shadow Empire.

  The two of them looked at each other, and both of them were overjoyed in their hearts. Red Devil Territory, the more chaotic it was, the better. Preferably, it had become a chaotic zone. That way, there was more hope of escaping.

  As soon as Jerry came in, he glanced towards the direction where Shea was sitting. Smiling, he waved his hand, 'Everyone, I think you all know about this matter. It's not bad, the people from the Ranger Organisation have colluded with the people from the Shadow Empire to give us a hard time. Hehehe, if they don't give me a good time, then, they don't want to have a good time either.'

  After a pause, Jerry's eyes fiercely flashed out a sharp light like a flash of electricity, 'So, I sent my eldest son, Kerry, as well as my second son, Geli, along to suppress this riot. Hmph, those fools, how dare they participate in such a thing. En ... Of course, Duke Shea, I wonder if you will visit! Oh ... so, you can also see the strength of your fiancé?'

  Once this was said, Shia's face immediately became as if she had drunk something highly poisonous.

  Lin Peng frowned and took a step forward, 'It seems that His Highness the Duke is not promised to His Excellency Geli! And ... just someone like His Excellency Geli, it seems, is not worthy of our Lord Duke. To be strong, it's just a Great Demon King. As a Fire Demon clan, you are still a Great Demon King level person even now. Hmph, look at me, I am now at the peak of the Demon King level. Moreover, I'm not from a great clan!'

As he spoke, Geli's face had deteriorated to the extreme. It seemed that he was about to vomit blood. Kerry, on the other hand, was about to burst out laughing. Speaking from strength, Carey had always believed that he was the best candidate for the heir.

  However, his father always favoured Geri, making him very unhappy.

  Now, to have someone say that Geri was simply not qualified enough was like a real outburst of anger for him!

  Geli clenched his teeth and grunted muffledly, ''I'm not qualified, so, are you qualified? If you have the ability, fight me!'

  Those other civil officials and five officials were all looking at Ge Li with some surprise.

  Lin Peng, on the other hand, laughed out loud, 'You, a Daemon Lord level, are actually challenging me? Hahaha ...' It seemed like he had come across a big joke in general, after glancing at Jerry.

  Only then did he realise that Jerry's eyes at this moment were as gloomy as a piece of dark clouds in the sky. Coldly looked at Lin Peng, and, that kind of aura has been slowly released.

  Lin Peng fiercely snorted coldly, ''What, does Lord Jerry want to bully the weak with the strong again? Do you guys dare to gamble with us from Dark Moon City, if I borrow our soldiers, I can better solve this riot. And you ... hmmm, I don't bother to say it, Lord Geri, how about we compare who can quell this riot faster?'

  A silence fell over the council chamber.
