Chapter 1196: Rest

Hearing Li Yue's words, the Death Lord beside him paused for a moment in slight surprise.

His gaze slowly focused on Li Yue, then he gently shook his head.

"Lord Chenxi, the words you speak are starting to confuse me a bit. Has something happened?"

Li Yue's brows furrowed slightly for a moment.

He said, "It is like this: I fought the Demon God to draw the Demon Clan's attention, so that my subordinates could escape. I originally thought they would come to you, but now you tell me there is not a single piece of news, which makes me somewhat curious."

"Oh, so that is how it is. However, Lord Chenxi, you need not worry too much. Perhaps your people are already on their way here. If necessary, I will also arrange for people to help search for them."

After hearing these words, Li Yue nodded slightly in satisfaction: "If that is the case, then I thank you for your trouble."

The corner of the Death Lord's mouth smiled slightly; he waved his hand accordingly and said, "No trouble at all, no trouble at all. These are things I should do."

While speaking repeatedly, at that very moment, they arrived at a place where a tent stood.

The Death Lord raised his hand, pointed at the tent, and said, "Lord Chenxi, this place will serve as your quarters for now. Although it is a bit simple, I hope you will not mind."

"It is fine; these conditions are already very good. By the way, Death Lord, about how many lords do we have now, and how many troops?"

Li Yue asked about the matter that concerned him most at the moment.

After hearing these words, the Death Lord thought for a moment, then said, "Lords at the Demigod Realm number around twenty. As for lords of other realms, there are over a hundred. The number of soldiers is roughly just over ten million."

Having said this, the Death Lord sighed deeply.

"To be honest, this number of people is completely insignificant in the eyes of the Demon Clan. Fortunately, now that Lord Chenxi you have returned, everything still has a chance."

When Li Yue heard this number, his brows furrowed tightly.

Although this number sounds large, in reality, it is very small.

On average, the combat power in the hands of each lord is only around several hundred thousand.

You must know that before fighting the Demon Clan, almost every lord was at the level of millions or even tens of millions.

And now.

One can only say that the course of events is hard to predict.

The Death Lord saw that Li Yue was deep in thought and did not dare to disturb him; he simply spoke: "Lord Chenxi, I will find someone to bring you some decent clothes. Your current attire really does not match your present status."

Upon hearing this, Li Yue nodded and said a word of thanks.

Then he spoke again to add a reminder.

"By the way, Death Lord, can you gather everyone together? I have something I want to say to everyone." The Death Lord fell silent for a moment, then said, "I am afraid that will be slightly difficult." "What is wrong?" Li Yue asked.

The Death Lord said, "Now most lords have begun recruiting soldiers and buying horses everywhere to expand our own strength; only a small portion of people are in the military camp. To gather most of the people together is feared to be somewhat difficult!"

After hearing these words, Li Yue nodded slightly, as if he understood. "Then let the lords gathered in the military camp be summoned."

"Very well. I will go make arrangements now. You go rest first; once everyone has arrived, I will come and notify you." The Death Lord said.

Li Yue said nothing more and simply nodded slightly.

Watching the Death Lord leave, Li Yue then lifted the tent flap and walked inside.

The space inside the tent was not particularly large, but for Li Yue alone, it was relatively suitable.

In his field of vision, besides a bed for resting, there was only a table and a chair.

Li Yue did not think much of it and simply sat down on the chair.

He clasped his hands behind his head, raised his gaze, and silently looked at the top of the tent, his mind dwelling on his plans for what came next.

Just as Li Yue was thinking about what to do next, a sound reached his ears. "Lord Chenxi, are you inside? My lord has asked me to bring clothes for you." A girl's voice sounded.

Hearing the voice, Li Yue immediately understood what was happening. Without saying any more unnecessary words, he directly said, "Come in."

As Li Yue's voice fell, the girl standing outside the door walked in holding clothes.

"Lord Chenxi, these are your clothes. Also, my lord has prepared hot water. Do you need to take a bath and change your clothes?" the girl asked cautiously.

Hearing this, Li Yue did not think much and immediately nodded heavily: "Very well."

After receiving the reply, the other party hesitated not at all, clapped her hands, and immediately two soldiers entered carrying a wooden bathtub.

Then they added water into the bathtub.

After finishing these tasks, the girl, at some unknown time, had already walked to Li Yue's side, raised her hand, and prepared to take off Li Yue's clothes.

This reaction frightened Li Yue, who hurriedly clutched his own clothes. "Wait, what do you want to do?"

"Lord Chenxi, of course I am here to change your clothes and help you bathe!" the girl said seriously.

Hearing this, the corners of Li Yue's mouth twitched twice with a dry chuckle; then he gently shook his head: "No need, it is unnecessary. I will do it myself." "But..."

The girl still wanted to say something, but the words at her lips were directly cut off by Li Yue. "Enough. Do you not wish to listen to my words?" "Very well."

After the girl walked out of the tent, Li Yue finally breathed a slight sigh of relief. "Really, what is going on!"

While speaking, he proceeded to take off his own clothes on his own.

Then he entered the bathtub and simply washed himself.

Lying in the bathtub, Li Yue suddenly felt much more relaxed.

He could not recall when he had last been able to do something like this.

After simply finishing his wash, Li Yue changed into clean clothes.

At this moment, the Death Lord's voice sounded again at the door. "Lord Chenxi, have you changed your clothes?"

Li Yue took his steps, lifted the door curtain, and walked out.

"What is it? Has everyone arrived already?" Li Yue asked.

The Death Lord immediately nodded heavily: "Yes, correct. Everyone has now arrived." As his words fell, he took his steps and walked toward the side.
