Chapter 1272

When Li Yue heard these words, his stomach began to rumble uncontrollably.

He patted his belly and said, "Indeed, I'm hungry."

"Alright, I'll go attend to my duties then; you rest here." Ireland. Beth stood up and walked into the house.

"Okay, go ahead and get busy!" Li Yue said.

Afterwards, Ireland. Beth left the place.

Inside the room, only Li Yue remained.

He lay on the bed, gazing at the ceiling, thinking in his mind about the plan to make next.

"What should I do next?" Li Yue thought silently in his heart.

Right now, he absolutely cannot stay here comfortably to recover from his injuries.

He must find a way to seek reinforcements.

Otherwise, for every day delayed, everyone faces another day of danger.

Li Yue's mind considered many things.

Unknowingly, time flew by quickly.

"How can I find reinforcements?" Li Yue frowned in thought.

Just then, the door was pushed open, and Ireland. Beth walked in carrying two plates of dishes.

She looked at Li Yue lying on the bed with his eyes closed, placed the tray in her hands on the table, sat on the chair beside him, and reached out to pat Li Yue's shoulder.

Li Yue opened his eyes.

He realized Ireland. Beth had walked in with the meal.

So he asked, "You're here."

"I prepared lunch for you; since you are recovering from injuries, it is better to eat something to replenish your energy." Ireland. Beth said with a smile.

Hearing these words, Li Yue did not stand on ceremony; he struggled to get up from the bed, walked down, and began to eat.

He just did not expect that, due to the severity of his injuries, his hand holding the chopsticks was trembling.

Seeing this, Ireland. Beth immediately stepped forward to help Li Yue hold the bowl and chopsticks, then used the chopsticks to pick up food together and feed it into Li Yue's mouth.

Seeing Ireland. Beth's gentle and virtuous appearance, Li Yue did not refuse; he opened his mouth and ate it.

"Does the taste suit your appetite?" Ireland. Beth asked.

Hearing this, Li Yue nodded slightly and said, "It is very delicious; I have not eaten such delicious food for a very long time."

Saying this, Li Yue looked at Ireland. Beth's profile again and praised, "Your cooking skills are good; did you learn them yourself?"

Being praised by Li Yue like this, Ireland. Beth was also very happy.

"In the past, I often secretly followed my mother, so I learned some cooking skills; later they all died, leaving only me and my grandfather, so I made the family meals." Ireland. Beth explained.

Hearing these words, Li Yue nodded, did not continue speaking, but continued eating the food beside him.

"Alright, are you full?" Ireland. Beth asked.

"I am full." Li Yue answered.

Hearing Li Yue say this, Ireland. Beth also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then you rest here for a while; I won't disturb you." Ireland. Beth said.

"Mm, go ahead and get busy with your things." Li Yue said.

As the words fell, Ireland. Beth walked out of the room.

After Ireland. Beth left, Li Yue looked at the room with the door tightly closed, and his expression suddenly became stern.

"I must find a way to leave; this is not a place to stay for long." Li Yue thought silently.

Thinking of this, Li Yue slowly sat up from the bed, lifted his clothes, and began to check his injuries.

On his chest, the scar left by the Demon God was still clearly visible, and most importantly, within this scar, black demonic qi was faintly rising.

Seeing this, Li Yue's brows tightened firmly.

For a short while, he truly could not think of any method to dispel this demonic qi.

This is a very tricky matter.

However, looking at the wound, it was much better than before.

Seeing this, Li Yue thought, "Could it be that Ireland. Beth's grandfather has some good treatment method?"

"I hope so; otherwise, it would be too troublesome; I don't know when I can dispel this demonic qi." Li Yue murmured to himself.

Just like that, he stayed on the bed alone for a full three or four hours.

During these few hours, he had not the slightest desire to sleep.

After eating his fill, he continued to think of ways, but unfortunately, he could not come up with any good method.

Time passed bit by bit; in the blink of an eye, the sun set behind the western mountains; at this moment, Li Yue finally heard a sound.

It was Ireland. Beth's grandfather returning from gathering medicinal herbs.

Hearing the sound, Li Yue struggled to get up from the bed, put on his shoes, and opened the room's main door.

Just as he came outside, he saw Ireland. Beth's grandfather, holding big and small bundles in his hands, walking step by step from the distance towards here.

"Grandfather, why did you return so late?" Ireland. Beth asked from the side.

"The medicinal herbs on the mountain are hard to gather, so I returned late." The old man said.
