Chapter 1114
Suddenly, a rapid series of knocks sounded, jolting the slumbering Demon God awake from his dream.
Who?!
The Demon God rose abruptly and looked toward the door.
A soldier stood outside the door, his face pale.
What is it?
"Reporting to Your Highness the Demon God, a... a grave emergency has occurred."
What has you so panicked?!
Our Demon Clan's territory was ambushed; our entire army has been annihilated!
The soldier spoke while trembling, and although fear made his whole body shake, he still managed to finish the sentence with resolve.
Upon hearing this, the Demon God's heart lurched: What?!
How could this be?! Haven't the other races of the Western Region already been destroyed or fled long ago? How could anyone have gone to the Western Region to launch an attack?
Speak! Who is responsible?!
The Demon God's tone carried anger.
It is... it is... it is the lords of the other domains...
The soldier said while trembling.
What?! Hearing these words, the Demon God's eyes widened.
Immediately, a smirk curled his lips as he said, "Li Yue, Li Yue, so it was your doing. So this is why I have not seen the other lords. So all of this was within your calculations."
The Demon God snorted coldly, secretly hating Li Yue in his heart, but he had no recourse. After all, he had killed them himself; what use was hatred?
Now, the great armies of the Western Region have been wiped out by the other lords, and the remaining small fry are utterly useless.
He must personally intervene to eliminate everyone in the Western Region.
Otherwise, it would jeopardize his hope of conquering the entire continent.
The Demon God looked at the soldier and said, "Notify the others immediately. Assemble the entire Demon Clan army at once and march to the Western Region. You must kill every lord and every soldier within the Western Region. Absolutely no one may survive. Do you understand?!"
Your subordinate understands!
The soldier immediately agreed, then withdrew from the room.
After the soldier left the room, the Demon God's expression turned extremely gloomy.
He never expected this failure to be caused by that bastard Li Yue!
However, this does not hinder his plan.
As long as he kills those lords, the Western Region will naturally fall silent.
At that time, he can continue to conquer other great domains.
Thinking of this, the fury in his heart subsided slightly.
He stood up, preparing to walk outside.
But just as he was about to depart, his footsteps suddenly halted. He frowned: "Something is wrong; I feel as though I have overlooked something."
Saying this, he propped his chin with his hand and paced back and forth.
"Li Yue is already a being at the Demi-God level; naturally, the strength of his body is formidable. If an ordinary person had suffered my strike, they would have been utterly obliterated without a doubt. Yet Li Yue left nothing behind..."
Thinking of this, the Demon God's expression became much Solemn.
"Could he have been rescued by someone?"
The Demon God muttered to himself. After speaking these words, he immediately turned and left, heading to the battlefield to inspect the situation.
Not long after, he arrived at the place where Li Yue had last been present.
With a slight movement of one hand, the Shi Zhu standing on the ground instantly crumbled into dust.
The Demon God strode to the central position to investigate.
Here, there were faint ripples of elemental fluctuation.
Upon careful investigation, he knew this was left by Li Yue; it seems he was rescued by something.
However, he did not discover any traces of humans or demonic beasts.
"Damn it, he was actually rescued by someone!"
This left the Demon God extremely perplexed.
Who exactly could it be? Who could rescue him right from under my nose?
Nevertheless, he did not give up but continued to search here.
Through the lingering magical traces, the Demon God roughly determined this was a spatial transfer spell.
And the source of the magic was actually transmitted from beneath the ground; clearly, someone underground was controlling it, but the controller's strength was not great.
The Demon God's mind raced with thought.
While pondering, he raised his fist and slammed it down onto the ground with a thunderous crash.
After a deafening boom, the entire earth shook.
The Demon God withdrew his fist and looked at his own fist.
At this moment, his fist was covered in blood.
Clearly, the power of that punch was immense; it had actually punched straight through the ground.
He glanced at his palm, then looked again at the spot on the ground.
Winding underground tunnels appeared before him. Seeing these tunnels, he immediately thought of a race: the Dwarves.
The Dwarves are skilled in forging and digging tunnels.
This was definitely done by the Dwarves!
Having figured this out, a bitter smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Truly unexpected, Li Yue, Li Yue—yet you managed to escape even under those circumstances. A grave miscalculation indeed."
"You may flee; after all, you are no match for me. Once I have dealt with your companions in the Western Regions, I will personally journey to the Continent to find you!"
Having spoken, the Demon God turned and walked outside.
Very soon, he arrived at the Demon Army's camp, then summoned his subordinates and prepared to set out for the Western Regions.
The Western Regions.
After destroying the Demon Clan's lair, the Death Lord gathered everyone and began discussing how to proceed next.
The Death Lord sat at the table, tapping his finger once upon its surface.
"What do you all think of this matter?"
"This time, the Demon God has suffered heavy losses; he will surely not let this pass. He must be thinking now of how to deal with us."
"At this moment, we must make absolutely thorough preparations; there can be no slightest error. Otherwise, once his great army arrives, we shall be in dire straits," one Lord declared.
Hearing this, the crowd nodded in unison.
Their expressions were grave, showing deep concern.
The Demon God is a most terrifying existence, his strength incomparably mighty.
