Chapter 1577: Li Yue's Anger

~6 min read 1,036 words

Hearing these words, the two exchanged a glance at that moment; a trace of confusion flickered in their eyes, for clearly, neither had yet grasped what Li Yue intended to convey.

Seeing their expressions, a hint of disappointment flashed in Li Yue's eyes; it seemed these two still had not understood his meaning.

After a moment's thought, Li Yue spoke: "Do you know? Just now, while I was on patrol, I overheard some soldiers chatting, and they were talking about me! Guess what they said!"

At that moment, both silently set down their wine cups, fixed their gaze upon Li Yue, and a thread of curiosity emerged in their eyes.

Li Yue sneered coldly: "They say that what I am doing is merely creating trouble for them where none existed. I simply do not understand; taking precautions against the unexpected—how is that creating trouble where none exists?"

"Just think: if the Demon Clan truly launches an attack, do you believe our current state could withstand their vast army?"

"Moreover, those Demon soldiers have already entered our territory. If they launch an assault, do you think we could react in the very first instant?"

Upon hearing Li Yue's words, both of their faces changed.

They all knew that everything Li Yue had said was extremely reasonable.

At that moment, they also realized that they had indeed been somewhat impulsive.

Seeing their expressions, Li Yue did not wish to say much more; he merely said lightly: "Very well. Since you have now realized how absurd and ignorant your actions were, I shall say no more. I hope you will not make similar mistakes in the future!"

"Lord Chenxi, we guarantee that such an incident will absolutely never happen again!"

"Very well, then I shall take my leave. Do not drink this wine."

Having spoken, Li Yue turned and walked out.

He did not wish to remain there any longer; these two fellows were truly shameless.

At this time, within the Demon Army camp.

The Demon God sat in his position, reading a book.

Just then, a Demon soldier hurriedly trotted in, exclaiming repeatedly: "My Lord Demon God, good news, good news!"

The Demon God paid no attention to him, continuing to read the book in his hands, and asked: "What is it? Speak directly."

"Yes, yes, yes." The Demon soldier before him nodded and said: "According to the intelligence gathered, the soldiers in You'an City now appear to be in a lax state; some are even secretly drinking alcohol while on patrol!"

Upon hearing this, the Demon God raised his head to look at the man and asked: "Is it true?"

"It is indeed true!" the Demon soldier declared with solemn assurance.

Hearing this remark, the corner of the Demon God's mouth curled slightly upward as he smiled: "Excellent. We have finally waited for this moment; truly, Heaven does not fail the determined!"

"In that case, issue the order immediately: assemble the troops and prepare to march on You'an City. This time, we must make them pay!"

A cruel, bloodthirsty smile appeared on the corner of the Demon God's mouth.

He had long been unable to wait; this time, he had finally seized the opportunity.

At that moment, the Demon soldier said: "Yes, My Lord Demon God. I shall go forthwith to issue the order."

"By the way, My Lord Demon God, do you intend to lead the army in person this time?" the Demon soldier asked with some concern.

Hearing the Demon soldier's words, the Demon God snorted coldly and said: "What? Do you think I cannot go?"

"No, no. It is merely that this subordinate believes that if My Lord goes this time, it will greatly boost morale, and we shall surely achieve a decisive victory at the outset."

Hearing the Demon soldier's words, the Demon God sneered and said: "Correct, you speak correctly. Regardless, this time I shall take You'an City!"

"Hahaha..."

Upon hearing the Demon God's laughter, the surrounding Demon soldiers quickly joined in agreement.

In the time that followed, the Demon forces prepared for departure, and a vast legion began to move toward You'an City.

Chenxi City.

Li Yue had just emerged from the room where Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, and Lord William Jors, the God of Slaughter, were staying.

Just then, a soldier hurriedly trotted over.

Seeing the soldier's appearance, a flash of cold light passed through Li Yue's eyes, and he asked in a deep voice: "What has happened?"

"."

Seeing Li Yue's expression, the soldier was startled and quickly replied: "Reporting to Lord Chenxi, great... great news is bad!"

"Lord Chenxi, it is bad! The Demon people have come!"

"They have already arrived! Moreover, they are bringing a vast number of Demon soldiers and are rushing toward us!"

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yue's face immediately changed, and he quickly asked: "How many have come?"

"We do not know the exact number."

"However, it must be all of them, for at a glance, it is entirely their forces!"

Hearing these words, Li Yue's expression grew even more grim; he had not expected such a thing to occur.

"Lord Chenxi, what shall we do now?" the soldier beside him asked again.

Upon hearing this, Li Yue glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "Issue the order: prepare to meet the enemy!"

"Yes, this subordinate obeys!" the soldier nodded respectfully.

He then turned and departed quickly.

Li Yue turned and re-entered the room.

Seeing Li Yue enter again, Todd Nelson and William Jors were immediately curious: "Lord Chenxi, is there something else?" "The Demons are attacking, and they have brought their entire force." Li Yue said in a deep voice.

"What?" Upon hearing this, Todd Nelson and William Jors also rose in surprise. "Why would they come at this time?"

Li Yue offered no explanation, but said: "Pack your things immediately. Prepare for battle."

Todd Nelson and William Jors exchanged a glance; a trace of solemnity appeared on their faces.

"Yes, Lord Chenxi."

Immediately, they began to pack their things, and within a short while, they departed together with Li Yue.

Soon, the three had arrived at the front line.

They discovered that many soldiers had not yet arrived.
