Chapter 1250: The Strange Behavior of the Demon Clan
Although it was a rest, for Li Yue, it could only be done by lying in a relatively comfortable place and breathing.
He knew the victory brought by this battle was only temporary.
Next came the most difficult moment.
With no food supply, the Demon Clan would inevitably launch a fierce attack, and whether they could hold their ground would eventually become a very serious problem.
This was exactly what Li Yue was worried about now.
He exhaled deeply, looked at a soldier standing guard beside him, and said, "Alright, you don't need to guard in front of me anymore; go do whatever you need to do!"
Hearing Li Yue speak, the soldier beside him said no more, nodded his head, and left Li Yue's position.
What Li Yue needed now was quiet; only in a quiet environment could he think through more of the thoughts he required.
Li Yue gently closed his eyes and began calculating what might happen next. As he thought, Li Yue started to feel his eyelids becoming extremely heavy, and in the time that followed, he gradually fell into a deep sleep without realizing it.
Seeing Li Yue's action, the soldier nearby originally wanted to take a piece of clothing to drape over his lord.
As soon as he began to move, a companion beside him immediately stopped him.
"What are you doing? Don't you see my lord is resting?"
The other person asked in confusion.
The companion explained, "It is precisely because I see my lord resting that I won't let you go over. My lord is very sensitive; as soon as you approach within a certain distance of him, he will wake up immediately. Wouldn't that disturb his rest and sleep then?"
"My lord hasn't rested for several days now; you should just let my lord have a good sleep. Doing nothing is the best." Hearing this, the other person finally understood what was going on, said no more nonsense, nodded, and stood at a distance, keeping watch over Li Yue.
Time passed bit by bit, and Li Yue suddenly woke up from his dream with a start.
His gaze hurriedly swept around, and at that very moment, his hand gripped the weapon at his waist.
Once he clearly saw everything around him, he finally realized he had just had a nightmare.
Thinking of this, he sighed deeply and placed both hands on his face, gently rubbing it.
This allowed him to wake up the fastest.
At this moment, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, walked over with measured steps.
Seeing Li Yue's reaction, the corner of his mouth curled into a slight smile as he said, "What's wrong? You looked so serious just now when you woke up."
As he spoke, he naturally handed a water jug from his hand to Li Yue's side.
Li Yue offered no courtesy, simply took it, and said, "Nothing, just had a nightmare."
As the words fell, Li Yue unscrewed the lid of the jug and gulped the water down his throat, gulp after gulp.
In an instant, half the jug went down his stomach.
He raised his sleeve, gently wiped the corner of his mouth, looked at Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, and asked with great curiosity, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Todd Nelson nodded gently, "Mm, there is a bit of a problem; the Demon Clan's movements are a bit strange."
Hearing this, Li Yue hurriedly stood up from his position, took hurried steps, and rushed toward the location of the battle line.
He had just started to move when Princess Feifeng stopped him with a slap.
Todd Nelson said, "Don't panic. Although the Demon Clan has made some moves, they haven't launched any attack against us."
Hearing this sentence, Li Yue immediately became somewhat curious.
He raised his gaze to look at Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson beside him, and asked, "What kind of moves are the Demon Clan making? Why would you call them strange?"
"I can't explain it clearly for Yishiban Society; anyway, you'll know when the time comes."
Hearing him say this, Li Yue became even more curious.
They arrived at a high ground on Jade Dragon Mountain, where one could see everything happening below the mountain most clearly.
Li Yue stood on top, his gaze looking down.
In his line of sight, countless demons were chopping down the surrounding trees; all these felled trees were piled randomly in one direction, with absolutely no logic, making it impossible to discern any other behavior.
Seeing this scene, Li Yue was also extremely curious.
"Strange!? Those trees over there shouldn't affect the Demon Clan at all; why would they be chopping them down?"
Just as Li Yue muttered to himself, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, beside him also said, "Originally I thought they were preparing to build some camps, but among the trees they chopped down, many were completely unsuitable in size, and I didn't see them cutting the timber. That is why I said the Demon Clan's behavior is a bit strange."
Li Yue nodded, fully agreeing with Princess Feifeng's observation.
... "Although we don't know for now what the Demon Clan is planning, it certainly isn't anything good. Anyway, first have people closely monitor their behavior; once there is any news, notify us immediately."
"Rest assured, even if you didn't say it, I have already had people do this."
Hearing this sentence, Li Yue felt relieved.
He was about to say something when his stomach gurgled at that very moment.
Seeing this, Princess Feifeng's corner of the mouth curled up slightly in a smile.
"Hungry?"
At the same moment, Li Yue also smiled along with the other person.
He nodded, "Mm, indeed a little. Come to think of it, the last time I ate was yesterday."
Hearing Li Yue's words, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, wordlessly shook his head gently and said, "Really, even forgetting to eat!"
"Not particularly hungry, either. Besides, so many things have happened; under these circumstances, how could there be any mood to eat?"
"Alright, stop talking about all that messy stuff. Now is the time for soldiers to eat; let's go get something to eat."
As Princess Feifeng spoke, he waved his hand and headed in a certain direction.
Li Yue didn't think much of it, took his steps, and followed him over.
They soon arrived at a place where soldiers cooked.
Princess Feifeng immediately said to the soldier serving food, "Go, get something tasty for your lord."
"Yes!"
