My Beautiful Duchess Wife

In the sky, a faint light appeared from the darkness. At the same time, Kalon reappeared. His entire figure transformed into a dark ray of light.

In an instant, it slashed towards Lin Peng. Thump...

Like the tolling of a bell in the space, the deep, resonant sound sent a shiver down one's spine. It even caused the entire space to tremble slightly.

The dark light vanished in the blink of an eye. However, Lin Peng couldn't help but cough up a mouthful of blood. But then, he burst into laughter.

The shield of the sun god had already appeared in his left hand. In his right hand, he held a three-meter-long spear. He suddenly pointed both hands upwards and coldly snorted, "Flame!"

Once again, his entire body became extremely powerful. His height exceeded ten meters, and even the raging flames had become somewhat viscous.

It seemed to be beginning to liquefy! He raised his spear, pointed it towards the sky, and shouted, "Open!" Instantly, a spatial ripple appeared. Karon's figure then materialized.

After letting out a muffled groan, it also spat out a mouthful of blood. Its eyes held a look of astonishment. The two giant beasts on the other side also seemed somewhat panicked.

At this moment, Lin Peng was truly like a real devil king, arrogant and possessing extremely powerful strength!

"Kalon, this time, you're dead!" Lin Peng laughed arrogantly, raising his spear high once more. Just as he was about to thrust it out, Kalon suddenly vanished again.

Lin Peng was startled, then abruptly began to chase in one direction. However, he only took two steps. A gigantic black hand slammed down from the sky towards him!

The spears were raised and thrust upwards with tremendous force. Boom... The palms simply shattered, and clusters of dark power gathered and dispersed like dark clouds.

Just as Lin Peng was about to take another step, he suddenly stopped. After looking around, he turned around in frustration.

The Dark Angel and the Blood Angel were both terrified! They didn't dare to move an inch. In the blink of an eye, just as they were about to flee, a crimson light appeared directly in front of them.

The spears were fired once more. At this moment, when they could truly feel this sensation, both the Dark Angel and the Blood Angel were speechless with shock!

This shot, though ordinary and devoid of any exaggerated fighting techniques, felt as if his entire body had been sealed off in that instant.

No matter which direction you try to escape in, you will be stabbed. You will be killed! Therefore, neither the Dark Angel nor the Blood Angel moved.

With a whoosh, the spear pierced through. A crimson light ignited, instantly obliterating both of them before they even knew what was happening.

They turned directly into real dust, perhaps without even realizing it in their dying moments. How did this kid suddenly increase his strength to such an extent?

Below, the two giant beasts were so frightened that they sat down on the ground with a thud, seemingly unable to react at all. In the distance, the dark cloud gathered once more.

Slowly, like a real hand, it coalesced into a hand even larger than before. Suddenly, it clenched and transformed into a fist.

Suddenly, a fist came hurtling towards Lin Peng. Lin Peng's reaction was incredibly fast. The fist appeared in front of him in a flash.

However, the spear, wreathed in intense flames, continued its horizontal thrust. It seemed there was no unnecessary movement whatsoever. Boom… This explosion shook the entire world.

Spatial rifts, accompanied by bursts of what appeared to be real spatial storms, were now raging fiercely. In an instant, the giant beast beside Lin Peng...

It seemed he had been swept away by the spatial storm. His enormous body vanished into the icy wasteland. Lin Peng, shield in one hand, suddenly shrank in size.

Swaying aimlessly amidst this hurricane-like spatial storm, Blue Demon suddenly appeared. He grabbed Lin Peng's shoulder, his longsword clasped in his hand, accompanied by the neighing of the skeletal horse beneath him.

He roared, "Freeze!" Instantly, the spatial storm seemed to stop. However, the Nine-Tailed Fox truly witnessed it.

The storm hadn't actually stopped. It seemed that a force, like starlight, had suddenly disrupted the spatial storm.

The storms instantly coalesced, as if a thin slit was slowly forming across multiple dimensions. Lin Peng squinted and roared, "Get out!"

"Do you think I'm stupid? Or are you stupid? I said I would protect you, and I have to protect you!" The words had barely left his lips when a mysterious command, perhaps a summoning voice, seemed to emerge from the spatial rift. Or something else, flashed through Lin Peng's mind, and vanished into the rift.

The nine-tailed fox only truly realized what was happening now. Beside her stood a man—not particularly tall, but possessing an exceptionally refined air.

Smiling, he watched the spatial rift close and said calmly, "That kid, still as troublesome as ever! If he hadn't been smart this time, he might be in the underworld!"

The nine-tailed fox became alert and turned to assume a fighting stance. Her willow-leaf-shaped eyebrows furrowed slightly. From the moment she appeared until now, she hadn't sensed the man's presence at all.

Moreover, perhaps it was this man who disrupted the spatial storm. Therefore, she remained extremely wary of such a powerful expert.

Furthermore, with a hint of fear in his expression, he asked, "Who exactly are you? How could you interfere with the spatial storm? And why didn't you save him just now!"

The young and handsome man suddenly burst into laughter, pointing at the nine-tailed fox and saying, "What... you were kept under my sister's care all those years ago, and you only just appeared now? You really don't remember me from when you were little!"

After a moment of contemplation, the nine-tailed fox seemed to realize something and turned to flee. The man merely flicked his fingers a few times, and instantly, the nine-tailed fox was immobilized.

It was as if they were directly imprisoned.

"Go back. It's not a good time for you to follow Lin Peng right now!" With that, he turned and, with the struggling Nine-Tailed Fox behind him, sped north like a shooting star...

Chapter Sixty-One: The Arrival of the Flame Demon (Part 1)

Outside the dark castle, an elderly man with white hair, white eyebrows, a white beard, and dressed in a long white robe silently gazed at the magnificent castle. It was over thirty meters tall. Anyone not particularly strong would likely be smashed to pieces if they jumped down. Of course, even the guards inside the castle...

They all possess the strength of a Silver-level warrior. Of course, this Silver-level warrior refers to a high-level expert within the human realm, not the Silver-level warrior of the celestial realm.

Clyland, Esti, and the three demonized beings were already standing at the city gate. Presumably, they wanted to make a good impression on these important figures.

These gatekeepers seemed particularly interesting. They all brandished their weapons, as if they wanted to rush up and kill the old man.

"Hey, old man, if you don't want to die, you'd better get out of here now! Otherwise, you won't even know how you died!" The silver warrior had just finished speaking.

Even as a disdainful smile played on his lips, a beam of light shot out, instantly piercing through the gatekeeper's body.

Before the other gatekeepers could even react, Esti on the city wall snorted and said, "When did the people of the Bright Heaven Realm become so despicable? Coming to the human world to play the hero? Don't they feel ashamed?"

After saying this, he slid down and landed directly on the ground. Looking at the old man, he was still somewhat nervous. After all, the old man's strength was undeniable!

No matter how Esti tried to probe, even with her overwhelming aura, it seemed she had sank straight into some kind of quagmire.

There was absolutely no reaction.

"Since when have demons become experts at swindling food and drink in the human world?" The old man chuckled lightly, as if he hadn't heard what had just been said.

His fingers twitched slightly, as if he wanted to kill these demons outright, emitting tiny points of light. Just then, His Holiness the Pope slowly emerged from the newly opened door.

As soon as he appeared, he burst into laughter, walking over with his hands clasped together: "Friends from the Bright Heaven Realm, since you're here, why are you just standing at the entrance? Why don't you come in and have a seat?"

That look, which seemed almost defiant, greatly annoyed the leader of the Radiant Realm. He had only come to hunt down the Holy Maiden, but she had instead hidden herself within the Dark Church.

Moreover, this dark cult actually contains real demons. Although they aren't exactly experts, seeing a demon still makes one want to attack.

Now, this representative of the darkness in the human realm invites you in. Even if it's dangerous inside, the leader still has to go in and take a look.

When the Holy Maiden was being chased by him, she even went back to retrieve the Holy Water of Light. Otherwise, the leader of the Light wouldn't have been able to relentlessly pursue her.

It's important to know that the current leader of the Bright Heaven Realm is a true god-level expert. Moreover, just like Shakrant back then, he has also cultivated the Bright Holy Heaven Domain.

This is the domain of the true God of Light. Perhaps, with the Holy Water's attention, it could absorb the power of that saintess.

Then, a breakthrough could be achieved immediately. Perhaps even becoming a true God of Light! For a leader-level figure, this is an incredibly powerful temptation.

Quietly, the leader followed this dark representative of the human world into the castle. The entire place exuded a chilling aura.

In particular, the guards all seemed to be looking at him with murderous eyes! Compared to the Church of Light, the Church of Darkness has been able to exist for so long.

The policies within the church are quite relevant. Regardless of victory or defeat, the unwavering will of the believers has always been a legacy of the Dark Church.

It will be passed down from generation to generation!

When the Light Leader was brought to the main hall, if those gazes could kill, he would have been riddled with holes by now.

Unfortunately, those gazes weren't truly deadly weapons! The Pope simply sat on the throne; it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

Even a few beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. However, the smile on his face gave the impression that the pope seemed quite confident.

"You must be the leader of the Radiant Realm! Hahaha... I have some bad news for you. Actually, Saint Elizabeth has already defected to our Dark Church, so... hehe..."

He chuckled casually, expecting the leader of the Light Realm to show surprise. However, the leader of the Light Realm remained seated, completely at ease.

He remained completely unmoved. Not even a trace of anger appeared on his face! He simply chuckled lightly and said, "That's impossible. I know her very well. Perhaps she's hiding in your church, but joining is out of the question! Besides… do you even know who she really is?"

Those questioning voices, as if by magic, caused all the people and demons in the main hall to reveal a hint of being infected by something.

I immediately felt the urge to speak my true feelings.

"I never imagined that the leader of the Bright Heaven Realm would resort to such tactics to control humanity. Could it be that you people of the Bright Heaven Realm are inherently this despicable?"

An elderly man spoke in a voice that spoke with unquestionable certainty. Instantly, everyone present was jolted awake. Some looked on with lingering fear towards the leader of the Bright Heaven Realm.

From the side hall, King of the Unicorns, Wengers, appeared in the main hall. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the leader of the Radiant Realm with an expression that said, "I'm starting to see you clearly."

"It's not that I'm despicable, but that you yourself willingly stooped to join the Dark Church. And that you simply don't understand what Elizabeth represents?"

The old man spoke slowly and deliberately, as if stating something very important. His eyes suddenly narrowed, and then his fingers flicked slightly.

Instantly, countless beams of light shot out, all hurtling towards the body of the Unicorn King. The Unicorn King, Wengers, coldly snorted.

Suddenly, in an instant, it was as if countless rays of light radiated from his body.

Boom! The entire hall couldn't withstand such an attack. Instantly, it collapsed, and the smoke and light vanished without a trace in an instant.

However, when looking in the direction of Wengers, they saw that the once tall and imposing Wengers was now covered in blood from head to toe.

The light seemed to dim. The old man chuckled softly, "Elizabeth, come out! This church, though truly powerful within the human realm, is nothing more than a matter of turning one's hand before me!"

The old man was speaking the truth. In this human realm, perhaps the Demon Lords and Saint Lords are the most powerful forces. In fact, even a Saint-level expert is considered a true super-strong individual.

However, compared to a god-level expert with a divine domain, they were clearly utterly powerless. They were as fragile and insignificant as ants.

Elizabeth slowly emerged from a side passageway. A small, sparrow-like white bird perched on her shoulder.

Staring at the old man, he said calmly, "Are you really not afraid of being discovered by the angels of Heaven, who will then unite to kill you?"

Without a second thought, the old man shook his head. Looking towards the setting sun in the distance, he said, "Even if they discover it, so what? With the holy water and your power, I will be the angel closest to the God of Light! Do you think they will be my match? Besides… you don't know, thousands of years ago, the God of Light had a chance to be resurrected. Heh… do you know why, even after another thousand years, he hasn't been resurrected?"

"That's because that guy Shakrant actually tried to devour the power of the God of Light! Back then, the God of Light could have been crowned king. However, in order to compete with the Sun God King, he expended a lot of his vital energy. It's said that he only recovered after devouring a lot of the chaotic primordial energy from the time of creation! In the end, who's right and who's wrong, how many people can really tell? Anyway, whoever wins is right!"

After saying all that, the old man suddenly turned around and looked at Elizabeth: "If I absorb your power, I will have the strength to directly break through those restrictions and perhaps even absorb the power of the God of Light! So, if I ultimately win, then I will be the one who is right!"

As it lunged at Elizabeth with a powerful beam of light, a gigantic claw, seemingly composed of white material, suddenly appeared before her.

Just then, a sudden tremor shook the sky. Immediately afterward, the entire earth seemed to tremble as well. The white claw paused for a moment.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Elizabeth quickly retreated towards the Pope. The old man looked up at the sky.

As if realizing something, he suddenly looked towards the Pope: "You are actually summoning demons? Heh... Very well, let me, in my current state, test whether those demons have truly recovered their strength after all these years."

As if with absolute certainty, he simply stood there amidst the ruins of the main hall. He even closed his eyes. It truly seemed as if he were waiting for someone.

Chapter Sixty-Two: The Arrival of the Flame Demon (Part Two)

The sky suddenly began to shrink, as if some powerful creature was about to emerge. Then, abruptly, it ricocheted open, creating a crack.
