Chapter 1209: Li Yue Takes Action

At this moment, someone from the Demon Clan finally sensed that something was beginning to go wrong.

He shouted loudly, "Enemies are attacking!"

As soon as his voice rang out, all that remained for him was a flash of blade and sword light.

Suddenly, several long daggers pierced into his abdomen.

Blood, like flowing water, gushed out continuously with a splashing sound.

Although the soldiers of Lord Chenxi had tried to stop this man from making a sound,

it was already too late.

A single cry of shock instantly caused the entire Demon Clan military camp to erupt in chaos.

The remaining demons were suddenly awakened from their sleep.

Some had barely woken up when they saw several figures slaughtering their own kin.

Without a second thought, they immediately lunged toward the position of Lord Chenxi's soldiers.

The two sides instantly clashed into a chaotic melee.

At this moment, Li Yue stood at a certain spot within the Demon Clan military camp when, suddenly, that cry of shock reached his ears.

As the cry rang out, his brows furrowed tightly at that very instant.

Although he had already known that this operation would not proceed particularly smoothly,

he had not expected such a situation to arise so much earlier than anticipated.

After all, while the enemy was still asleep, the number of people he had killed had not yet reached one-quarter of his estimate.

With this thought in mind, Li Yue's gaze turned toward the distance.

No one knew what he was thinking.

Then, he slowly withdrew his line of sight and spoke to the subordinate beside him: "Issue the order for the fighting soldiers to withdraw and form a cordon. I will personally deal with these Demon Clan soldiers in this camp. Once the matter is concluded, simply take away their military provisions."

Although Li Yue's voice was somewhat low, every single word fell clearly into the ears of the nearby soldiers.

Upon hearing this, the subordinate was slightly stunned.

"My lord, there is no need for you to personally deal with these fellows; having us is already sufficient."

Li Yue nodded his head and said seriously, "I know that having you is already sufficient, but if we do not gain control of this situation a little sooner, I fear that attracting other experts from the Demon Clan will cause trouble."

As Li Yue finished speaking, he raised his finger and deliberately pointed toward a certain direction.

"You must know that this place is only a few dozen kilometers away from the locations of other Demon Clan military camps. As soon as the enemy discovers the anomaly here, they can arrive here quickly in almost no time. If that truly happens, it will be troublesome for us."

Hearing Li Yue's words, the soldier beside him immediately stopped speaking any further nonsense.

He nodded and replied, "This subordinate understands; I will go make arrangements immediately."

Then, the soldier took a small bamboo flute from his sleeve and placed it to his lips.

He blew forcefully, producing a loud sound.

However, this sound was resonating at a specific frequency.

Upon hearing this sound, the soldiers immediately reacted.

"My lord has ordered us to withdraw to the outer perimeter; he will deal with these fellows himself."

"Understood. Quickly, quickly retreat!"

As the soldier's voice rang out, many of Lord Chenxi's soldiers immediately chose to retreat rather than engage the Demon Clan soldiers in combat.

At this time, some Demon Clan soldiers had not yet figured out the situation.

They thought that they themselves had won this battle.

But little did they know, what awaited them would be even greater despair.

Before long, Lord Chenxi's soldiers had already withdrawn from the location of the Demon Clan military camp. Whenever a small squad reached their corresponding position, the squad leader in charge also took out a bamboo flute and blew it.

This served as a reply to Li Yue.

As one sound after another rang out, the soldiers hurriedly jogged over to Li Yue's side.

"Reporting to my lord. Everyone has already withdrawn."

The moment the soldier's voice had just fallen, Li Yue's figure had already vanished from the spot.

At this time, the soldier was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed low.

He had no idea that Li Yue had left.
