Chapter 1247

~6 min read 1,022 words

The Demon God naturally could not understand what Li Yue was trying to express; his expression changed slightly, and he frowned, asking, "What do you mean!"

"Look at what is behind your army!"

Li Yue reminded him.

The Demon God laughed: "With you like this, you still want to deceive me into being distracted? It's really funny. I am not some three-year-old child; a frown might make you fall for such a trick."

As he spoke, the Demon God lifted his foot and kicked straight at Li Yue's face.

Li Yue crossed his hands in an instant, blocking in front of himself to form a defense.

The Demon God's kick was heavy, capable of crushing a ten-thousand-Jin stone almost instantly.

If a normal lord were to face this strike of his, unless he died, his hands would at least be destroyed.

Fortunately, the person opposing the Demon God was no one else but Li Yue; in terms of realm, the two were roughly equal, so naturally, he possessed a sliver of ability to resist.

Despite this, Li Yue still suffered a tremendous force in that instant.

His body slid backward immediately, and a deep furrow appeared beneath his feet.

Li Yue shook his arm in pain, his gaze fixed on the Demon God.

"I warned you kindly; since you are unwilling to believe my words, then do not blame me for not having warned you afterward."

As he spoke, Li Yue discarded the broken sword in his hand; then, grabbing from the void, a long spear appeared in his grasp.

He held the long spear with both hands, facing the Demon God directly.

The Demon God sneered: "Playing with a spear before me, you truly do not value your life!"

As he spoke, the Demon God raised his hand; just as he was about to make a move, at that very moment, a Demon soldier ran over hurriedly from afar, shouting loudly to the Demon God, "My lord, my lord, terrible news, terrible news!"

Hearing his words, the Demon God's brow furrowed, and he paused his movement slightly.

Even so, his gaze never left Li Yue for a single moment.

At this time, the Demon God still maintained a state of full alertness.

He asked the Demon soldier, "Did you not see I am in battle? If you cannot state what important matter this is, you know the consequences!?"

Hearing these words, the Demon soldier dared not show any negligence again; raising his hand, he pointed toward the location of the granary shrouded in thick smoke and said, "My lord, terrible news, the granary... the granary is on fire!"

The moment these words left his mouth, the Demon God's face instantly turned green; at this moment, his gaze shifted from Li Yue to the distance.

"What!?"

Accompanying his exclamation of surprise, within his line of sight, at the location behind his army where the grain was stored, a raging fire was burning.

"Damn it!"

At this moment, the Demon God seemed to think of something; his gaze subconsciously turned back, looking at Li Yue.

In the brief moment he had been distracted, Li Yue had already fled.

Now, before the Demon God, where was his figure to be found!

At this moment, the Demon God immediately reacted, his gaze turning toward the distance.

Within his line of sight, Li Yue had already sprinted away, having taken his steps long ago.

The Demon God wanted to pursue, but looking at the location of the granary behind his own army, the steps he had just intended to take stopped in that instant.

"Damn it, I've been tricked again," the Demon God clenched his fist, speaking in fury.

Then, his gaze turned to the Demon soldier behind him, and he roared, "What is going on? Why did the granary catch fire!? Wasn't someone specifically guarding it?"

Hearing these words, the Demon soldiers nearby responded immediately, "My lord, the guards left for some unknown reason; the specific situation is completely unknown now. We wanted to use water to extinguish the fire, but unexpectedly, pouring water on it was like adding oil; the fire burned even larger. Now we have no way, so we can only come to inform my lord of the specific situation."

After hearing these words, the Demon God seemed to think of something.

Without saying any more nonsense, with a single movement, he arrived at the location of the granary.

At this time, the raging fire had almost burned down most of the granary, and around it, countless soldiers were hurriedly trying to put out the fire and make repairs, yet their actions brought little use.

Instead, it made the flames burn even more violently.

Seeing this scene, the Demon God frowned and asked, smelling something in the air.

At this time, a pool of black, unknown liquid was found on the ground; he bent his body down, lightly wiped a bit with his finger, then brought it to his nose to smell gently.

In an instant, a pungent smell of oil made his nose unbearable.

His expression also changed greatly at this moment.

He shouted loudly to those subordinates putting out the fire, "Damn it, stop it all! Did you not see there is fire oil in here? Using water is basically useless. Disperse."

As the Demon God's voice fell, the Demon soldiers who had been putting out the fire stopped their actions at this moment.

At this time, one only saw the Demon God raise his hand and slap the ground.

The sand on the ground seemed to be drawn by some force, beginning to surge in that instant.

In the next moment, countless sands gathered together, forming a strange spectacle like ocean waves.

With a boom, countless sands instantly swept into the burning granary.

Precisely because of this, the flames that had been raging fiercely were extinguished at this moment.

Although the fire was put out, everything had become a mess.

Not to mention the burned grain, even what remained was almost buried by sand and earth.

The Demon God frowned and asked, "Who was guarding the granary? Come out."
