Chapter 1118

At that moment, the Demon God was lost in thought when suddenly a voice broke through his reverie.

"My lord Demon God, we... have arrived at the Demon Cave, but... but we have found no trace whatsoever of the Alliance Army." A demon soldier ran frantically and hurriedly before the Demon God.

Panting heavily, he reported, his gaze tense and fearful, as if terrified the Demon God would punish him.

Upon hearing these words, the Demon God's expression froze slightly; his eyes widened roundly, and an expression of extreme shock appeared on his face.

There is truly nothing here?

How is this possible?

How can there be nothing here?

How could this be? Did several million people vanish into thin air? the Demon God roared.

Search the surroundings carefully; see if there are any clues. You must investigate this matter thoroughly! If there is any clue, report it to me immediately. the Demon God ordered in a deep voice, his tone unnaturally cold.

Yes, my lord! the soldier replied, then turned and left.

The Demon God watched the soldier depart, his expression growing increasingly unstable and gloomy.

Not long after, a demon general approached.

"My lord Demon God, those fellows may have truly fled. There are many of their traces on the ground. Perhaps... your subordinate should bring men to pursue them."

"Pursue? Where would you pursue them?" the Demon God scolded. "Are you a pig-brained fool? It has already been two days since we returned to the Demon Cave. In two days, even a fly would have escaped. Where would you look? Where could you possibly catch up with them?"

The demon general, having been shouted at, looked somewhat embarrassed.

He lowered his head and stood in place, saying nothing more.

The Demon God took a deep breath and calmed his inner emotions.

He looked at the demon soldier, remained silent for a long time, and finally spoke: "Forget it; it is all my fault. If not for my reasons, this situation would not have arisen now. You take the soldiers and sort out the situation in the surroundings."

A bitter smile appeared on the Demon God's face.

Now he was merely deceiving himself.

A surge of anger burned within him, yet he could not vent it, so he could only suppress it in his heart.

Your subordinate obeys. the demon general respectfully bowed.

After he left, the Demon God sat in place, his face extremely ugly.

The Demon God felt a sense of humiliation in his heart, yet he had to admit that he had been outmaneuvered by those fellows.

This feeling made him feel extremely furious.

He had never suffered such a profound disgrace.

Moreover, he had not expected that those fellows were so clever; upon realizing the situation was dire, they directly chose to retreat, refusing to engage the demons in a hard fight and giving the demons not a single opportunity.

Hmph! You damned fellows, do not let me catch your tail. Otherwise, I will make you suffer bitterly and die in the most agonizing way! the Demon God cursed with hatred, a trace of ferocity on his face.

A strong impulse surged within his heart.

Then, the Demon God shouted loudly, "Someone come!"

"Here!" Instantly, several demon soldiers appeared before him.

"Issue the order. All soldiers adjust their state, rest, and depart tomorrow to head to the other regions. This time, we will advance the front lines comprehensively; we must not allow the enemy any opportunity whatsoever to resist."

Hearing what the Demon God said, the demon soldiers present all nodded.

"Yes."

It seemed that this time, the Demon God was truly angry.

Li Yue slowly awoke from his unconscious state and then gradually opened his eyes.

This was a strange room, decorated extremely luxuriously.

Li Yue took a look around and realized he did not recognize this place at all.

Recalling the scene of his battle with the Demon God.

Li Yue let out a slight bitter smile: "So this is the place where souls reside after death. I did not expect it to be so beautiful."

Although this room was not very spacious, its arrangement was extremely elegant; it did not appear shabby at all, but rather quite luxurious.

Inside the room, there was a bed, a table, and a set of chairs.

It was completely unlike a place belonging to the Underworld.

Li Yue tried to get up from the bed; he did not expect that such a small movement would immediately cause his wound to tear open.

Pain made him cry out, "Ah, ah, ah!"

"Pain, pain, pain, why does it hurt so much?" Li Yue clutched his right shoulder, crying out in pain, while streams of blood flowed out from the gaps between his fingers.

This was caused by Li Yue previously using his own flesh to block the Demon God's sharp blade in order to evade the Demon God's attack.
