Chapter 1290: Is the Guy Before Me a Lord?

Li Yue's actions piqued the curiosity of the few people beside him.

"You… are willing to save us?"

Li Yue smiled and said, "Why wouldn't I be? Come to think of it, we actually belong to the same side!"

"The same side?"

After Li Yue's words came out, the people present immediately looked at each other again and again, their eyes full of curiosity. "You're also a person of the Lord–Alliance forces?"

Li Yue did not hesitate in the slightest and gently nodded his head.

"Mm!" As he spoke, he immediately continued to open his mouth and talk.

"Just now, it was also because I didn't know what kind of identities you had, so for the sake of safety, I treated you that way. I hope you won't take it to heart!"

The few people had all been saved by Li Yue, so naturally they would not feel any annoyance at Li Yue's earlier actions.

Besides, given the current situation, it was only natural for Li Yue to act the way he did.

If it had been them in his place, they would probably have done something similar as well.

"It's fine, it's fine. In any case, we still have to thank you for saving our lives. If it weren't for you, we would probably have been eaten by those snakes long ago."

One of the men said seriously.

Hearing the other party say this, Li Yue nodded his head with great pleasure.

At least from the looks of it now, the other party was also someone who knew to repay kindness.

At this moment, Li Yue once again brought up the question that had been troubling him.

"Right, what's the deal with these magical beasts? You still haven't told me!?"

As he spoke, Li Yue raised his hand and pointed at the few corpses on the ground that he had slashed to death.

"These magical beasts are creatures that exist in this swamp. Originally, by all rights, there shouldn't be this many, but for some unknown reason, their numbers have suddenly increased a lot recently. As for the specific details, I really can't say for sure."

"Oh. Fine, anyway these guys are all dead now, so let's not dwell on all this messy stuff. But, can you tell me exactly where your Lord is located? I have something important to notify him about!"

"Something important?"

After hearing Li Yue's words, the few people still felt a sliver of wariness rise within them. Rather than directly telling the exact location of their Lord, they instead asked in low voices.

"What important matter requires you to ask us over and over again about the location of our Lord's territory?"

Li Yue was silent for a moment, then said, "You should know where Jade Dragon Mountain is located, and that the demon race is currently fighting the other Lords, right?"

Hearing Li Yue say this, the few people nodded their heads heavily.

"And now the front lines are in urgent need. I came to find your Lord precisely to notify him of something important. It concerns the war situation, so there can be no delay. Understand?"

As Li Yue's voice fell, his gaze at the same instant swept over the few people beside him.

He wanted to see the changes in their expressions.

The few people looked at each other, and finally their gazes settled on Li Yue.

"You know, Jade Dragon Mountain is several hundred kilometers from here. How did you get here? Surely you can't fly?"

Hearing the other party's questioning, the corner of Li Yue's mouth curved into a slight smile.

He did not say anything more, just made one small movement.

With a single step, the next instant he vanished from where he stood.

At that moment, the others around him immediately began to panic.

"Where's the person!? Where did he go?"

"Did you see? How did he disappear?"

"I don't know either. He just whooshed and then he was gone."

At that moment, the few people looked at one another, and faced with the current situation, all appeared extremely curious.

Right then, Li Yue's voice came from above.

"I'm here!"

As the voice rang out, the people present instinctively raised their gazes to look overhead.

In their line of sight, Li Yue's figure had already become a tiny dot.

As Li Yue slowly descended, only at that moment did the people present finally realize what had happened.

Li Yue landed in front of the few people and said, "Are you still doubting my speed now?"
