Chapter 1056: Another Assault

The Demon Race's vast army mobilized, preparing to attack Lord Chenxi's domain!

This order was quickly passed down.

In an instant, countless demons gathered at the location of the Demon Emperor's tent.

The Demon Emperor glanced around, slowly withdrew his gaze, and said, "Everyone, my excellent soldiers of the Demon Race, today we encountered a slight trouble while ruling the Shengna Continent."

As he spoke, the Demon Emperor raised his finger and pointed toward Lord Chenxi's domain.

"Those ignorant fools actually appeared before us to block our steps, and moreover, they killed our most important wizard. If this can be endured, what cannot be? An uncle might endure it, but I, the Demon Emperor, find it somewhat unbearable."

"Today I have summoned everyone here to once again campaign against Lord Chenxi's domain and avenge Lord Wizard."

"Furthermore, the Demon God bestowed upon me a fragment of his power. I have now been reborn. Follow me to war, fight for the honor of the Demon God, kill!"

Kill, kill, kill!

A roar of shouts echoed through the clouds.

Obviously, they were full of confidence in this operation, utterly disbelieving that those folks in Lord Chenxi's domain could block them; they had enough confidence to easily destroy Lord Chenxi's domain.

Set out.

We are heading to Lord Chenxi's domain right now!

Set out.

The Demon God's vast army once again marched in great numbers toward the territory of Lord Chenxi's domain.

Meanwhile, Li Yue was currently closing his eyes and resting in a corner of Lord Chenxi's domain.

Before long, a soldier came reporting in a panic.

My lord, the Demon Race's vast army is heading toward our territory once again; they should arrive in about ten minutes.

Should we prepare for battle?

As this soldier spoke, he observed Li Yue's expression.

However, after waiting for a long time, he found he could not see clearly what my lord was thinking; he even suspected that every word he spoke failed to elicit any reaction from my lord.

What caused this?

Could it be that my lord has been scared silly?

Thinking this, the soldier immediately felt a chill run through his body; if this were truly the case, then his own little life would likely not be safe.

Sweat flowed down his forehead as he stared nervously at Li Yue.

Li Yue opened his eyes, saw the soldier looking extremely nervous, yet still showed not the slightest expression.

He spoke: "Since that is the case, go tell this news to the other lords. Say that the Demon Race's vast army has already reached the city gates; if you fight, assemble at the city gates; if you retreat, stay well within Lord Chenxi's domain."

Ah, my lord, what is wrong with you? Are you scared silly? If I say this, surely not a single person will move out; what shall we do then?

Upon hearing Li Yue's words, this soldier immediately cried out in alarm.

Li Yue merely said calmly: "Do not worry; simply do as I have told you."

"Th-this is fine, but my lord, is this really alright?" The soldier remained uneasy, after all, the plan my lord proposed was far too dangerous.

What if not a single lord goes to fight? If everyone stays out, will we just wait to die?

Do you think, at such a moment, we have any room to retreat?

No.

That is correct; then listen to me, and you will not be wrong.

Very well, I obey my lord's arrangement. Upon hearing Li Yue's words, this soldier could only grit his teeth and agree.

He also knew that at this very moment he could not change Li Yue's decision; the only thing he could do was follow orders.

Quickly, the soldier relayed the words Li Yue had spoken orally.

Some lords heard this and were filled with fury.

"Damn, what exactly is Lord Chenxi doing? If you want to go, go; if not, stay put. Is he planning to give up?"

And some lords expressed great joy.

"Oh ho, Lord Chenxi has finally come to his senses once; let the other lords deal with the Demon Race properly; as for us, we will sit on the mountain watching the tigers fight and reap the benefits."

Under these conditions, many lords still chose to step forward.

After all, they also knew that if the Demon Race breached Lord Chenxi's domain, the result for the entire Shengna Continent, and even for themselves, would be that when the lips are cold, the teeth suffer.

Thus, nearly dozens of lords began summoning their subordinates and rushing toward the front-line battle position.

They did not expect that, while on the road, they encountered a person.

At this moment, the Demon Race's vast army had already arrived at the city gates.

The army led by the Demon Emperor did not, like last time, launch an attack without saying a word.

Yes, my lord.
