Chapter 1396

Hearing the advice of the many soldiers, the Demon God's face grew even more grim. Looking at the soldiers before him, he clenched his fists tightly.

Finally, persuaded by everyone, the Demon God loosened his fists and asked Li Yue, "Lord Chenxi, what exactly do you want to do!?"

Li Yue smiled slightly and said, "What I want to do, you should know very well, my lord. I simply hope you will enter quickly."

Li Yue's tone was very calm, like a kind elder caring for a junior.

Hearing this, the Demon God let out a cold snort.

"Li Yue, do you really think I would fall for your trap? Open the city gates wide and let me enter like this? Isn't that just telling me you have set an ambush waiting for me? Do you really think I am that stupid?" The Demon God's tone was extremely cold. Looking at Li Yue before him, his eyes were filled with contempt.

Hearing this, Li Yue shook his head and said with a smile, "No, no, Demon God, I never thought that. I only hope you can trust me and not be blinded by false rumors."

I am right here waiting for you to enter.

After saying this, Li Yue no longer spoke, but looked at the Demon God, waiting for the Demon God to enter on his own.

Hmph!

Hearing Li Yue's words, the Demon God let out a cold snort, turned his head, and said to Li Yue, "Li Yue, if you want to enter, that is fine too; you come out first and say so."

Hearing this sentence, Li Yue's expression changed slightly, and then he fell silent.

Seeing Li Yue's reaction, a Demon General beside the Demon God said repeatedly, "My lord, look, he is scared, he is scared. That means he dares not come out. A person who wants to surrender dares not come out. What does this show? Doesn't this show that they have set an ambush waiting for us to go over!?"

Yes, it must be like this, it must be like this. They are bluffing my lord, trying to trick my lord into entering.

How could such a treacherous and cunning person be a match for my lord? Our Demon Clan warriors are not fools.

My lord, such people are just lying. We must not believe them; we must not be tricked by them!

Hearing the advice of the surrounding soldiers, the Demon God nodded and then said, "Since that is the case, then we need not be polite. Let us attack the city directly!"

"My lord, is it not a bit inappropriate to attack the city now!?"

"What do you mean!?"

"We already know that these fellows have set an ambush. If we attack now, we will only be throwing our lives away for nothing."

Hearing the words of the surrounding soldiers, the Demon God nodded and said, "Hmm, then in your opinion, what is a good method!?"

"First, investigate clearly what the enemy is up to. As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win a hundred battles. The closer we get to the end, the more careful we must be!"

Hearing these words, the Demon God nodded.

Immediately, he said to the surrounding soldiers, "Transmit my order: the main army shall temporarily withdraw to one side and await my news."

Hearing the Demon God's words, the many soldiers immediately accepted the order and then dispersed to the surroundings.

Li Yue, this time your little life will just have to wait a bit. After some time passes, I will come to collect it personally."

After the Demon God coldly finished this sentence, he directly led a group of soldiers, turned around, left the city gate, and walked toward the distance.

Watching the Demon God leave, a faint smile appeared on Li Yue's face, and he cursed silently in his heart.

What a real fool, actually falling for it.

Thinking this, the whole person let out a heavy sigh of relief. His body relaxed at this moment, his frame went limp, and he sat in a chair, panting heavily.

Hah! Finally got them to leave; it was really too difficult.

Li Yue patted his chest and said silently.

Seeing this scene, the Lord of the Killing God's eyes were also filled with excitement and nervousness, even more so, a look of complete disbelief.

"They retreated? They retreated? They really retreated!? Lord Chenxi, you are truly too amazing, actually able to trick these fellows!" The Lord of the Killing God exclaimed, and his eyes looking at Li Yue were filled with admiration.

Li Yue smiled slightly and said, "This is just my good luck. To be honest, I was really afraid just now that they would really come in. At that time, I would truly be a sinner."

Otherwise, these people would absolutely not fall for it so easily.

Speaking, Li Yue looked at the Lord of the Killing God and continued, "Alright, Lord of the Killing God, there is nothing else now. I will rest first. You go prepare: first, re-establish the new defenses; second, prepare enough fire oil!"

Hearing Li Yue's words, the Lord of the Killing God nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.

Watching the back of the Lord of the Killing God, a smile also appeared on the corner of Li Yue's mouth.

It seems, for this battle, I am certain to win!

This Demon God is truly pitifully stupid.

If he had been a bit bolder just now, perhaps he would have already won the opportunity for this battle. Now, the only opportunity, he actually missed it; this is simply too regrettable.

However, for the Demon God, caution ensures safety for ten thousand years. He also did not know Li Yue would pull such a move.
