Chapter 1058: A Scheme Within a Scheme

Present.

For a moment, all the demons spoke up in response.

The Demon Emperor said, "Divide the formation into three large units, with each unit no more than five kilometers apart; the target is Lord Chenxi's territory."

Yes.

After hearing the Demon Emperor's words, everyone agreed one after another.

Following that, they began moving toward the direction of Lord Chenxi's territory.

But

the journey was already halfway done, yet not a single guard had appeared.

This left the Demon Emperor as confused as a monk scratching his head.

His heart could not help but start murmuring: What exactly is Lord Chenxi up to? Could he be planning to give up resistance and surrender obediently?

But no matter how you look at it, they made no move at all; giving up Lord Chenxi's territory so easily seems too simple, doesn't it?

Could it be that the lords of Lord Chenxi's territory are truly afraid?

Thinking this, they became even more puzzled.

Forget it, never mind; keep moving forward.

After the Demon Emperor finished saying this, he continued advancing.

Before long, the Demon Emperor finally saw a group of people, but their position was already in the central part of Lord Chenxi's territory.

Moreover, the people they saw appeared in a loose formation, showing no intention whatsoever to fight.

Immediately, the Demon Emperor ordered everyone to halt their advance and instead begin hiding, so as not to be detected by the enemy's sentries.

"You few, go over and see what exactly these lords are doing."

Afterward, the Demon Emperor sent people to secretly scout the situation.

Soon, the scouts ran back excitedly.

"My lord Demon Emperor, good news, good news."

"What good news? Speak slowly." The Demon Emperor was extremely curious about the good news from the soldiers' mouths, so he asked.

Reporting to my lord Demon Emperor: according to the intelligence just gathered, this group is the location of the lords' allied army; if we wipe them out in one sweep, then we will win this war.

Oh?

Hearing this, the smile on the Demon Emperor's face grew even broader, and he secretly thought with pride:

Indeed, these damn humans are afraid.

Afterward, the Demon Emperor gave orders to his subordinates: Go, surround this place; we are preparing to cook dumplings.

Yes.

The soldiers withdrew one after another, then, following the Demon Emperor's orders, completely surrounded Lord Chenxi's territory.

At this moment, the distance to the demon army was getting closer and closer.

My lord Demon Emperor, the numbers are about right; should we order the attack?

Seeing this, the Demon Emperor nodded.

Attack! Kill them ruthlessly; I want to see how long these lowly humans can hold out.

Yes, my lord Demon Emperor.

The Demon Emperor issued the command, and instantly the demon soldiers charged toward Lord Chenxi's territory.

One by one, they advanced with fierce momentum, weapons in hand.

Kill!

With a mighty roar, all the demon soldiers rushed madly toward Lord Chenxi's territory, enveloping the entire area as if it were a giant net, trapping Lord Chenxi's territory within, leaving them no chance to fly away or escape.

Seeing this scene,

the lords of Lord Chenxi's territory one by one revealed expressions of panic.

"What is happening? Didn't other lords go to resist the demon invasion? How could the demons have already killed here so quickly?"

It's over, it's over; this time it is truly over; Lord Chenxi's territory will surely be destroyed.

One lord murmured to himself, full of sorrow.

The other lords, upon hearing this, also fell into despair.

What, what should we do!

Yes!

What now? How shall we resist? One lord loudly asked the others around him.

Someone said: I don't know either; now we can only wait for reinforcements; I hope our reinforcements can arrive in time; otherwise

"But where are any reinforcements now? Haven't you seen that those who went out to fight have not returned?"

Hearing this,

the other lords all showed expressions of dejection.

What else can we do? Can we only sit and await death, waiting for death to descend?

"No, I will not accept it! Even if I die, I will take one or two demons with me! My people, follow me; cut a path through!"

At this moment, a lord who feared death suddenly shouted loudly at those around him.

Good! Follow me; let's fight to the end.

Others responded one after another and quickly rushed outward, attempting to escape.

Heh! Since you want to seek death, I will grant your wish.

Seeing this scene, the Demon Emperor snorted coldly, then directly swung the spear in his hand and shot it toward those lords who wanted to escape.
