"Trial grounds!" They were all old and cunning people. Elder Li only said the beginning, but everyone immediately guessed the result.
"It is the Training Grounds!" Elder Li nodded his head heavily and gave his answer.
The most dangerous place was the safest. The more familiar a place was, the easier it was to overlook it. What flashed through everyone's mind was this kind of trick that played with people's hearts. Everyone's faces were full of brilliance.
"I happened to find traces of cultivator activity there." Elder Li didn't wait for everyone to guess and directly gave his evidence. "Logically speaking, no expert from the Sect would go to the trial grounds for no reason."
All of the cultivators were recovering their lost land step by step. There was still some distance to the trial grounds, and no one could jump over a large area occupied by demon beasts to train in the innermost area. Even if it was an expert at the Xuan Immortal level, killing demon beasts at the frontline was enough for them to gain experience. There was no need for them to take the risk of entering the original trial grounds.
If there were traces of cultivator activity, it meant that there were cultivators inside. Since it wasn't an expert from a large Sect or a cultivator who came to gain experience, then the remaining possibilities were obvious.
This wasn't some rumor, but something that Elder Li, the core elder, had seen with his own eyes. Naturally, the higher-ups of the Mysterious Heaven Sect didn't doubt it.
Whether it was Elder Li's deduction based on facts or everyone's method of playing with people's hearts, they were all shockingly consistent. The Zhao Family's headquarters was most likely at the core of the trial grounds.
Because no one had entered before, it would be easy to hide a Sect with hundreds of thousands of people in that area, even if it was 10 times larger.
For a moment, the higher-ups who heard the news all gnashed their teeth and rubbed their palms. The Zhao Family had harmed the Mysterious Heaven Sect too ruthlessly, and the two sides were irreconcilable. Now that they knew where they were most likely to be hiding, everyone wished they could immediately find the Zhao Family's location and slaughter the entire Zhao Family.
An unnatural smile flashed across Hall Master Zhu's face. Then, his expression turned into one of hatred like everyone else's, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong.
Unfortunately, Hall Master Zhu did not realize that everything about him had been completely guessed. All of his actions after hearing the news had been seen by Elder Li without missing a single detail, and he remembered it all.
This was a matter of great importance. Currently, the Trial Grounds were still occupied by the Monstrous Beasts. Even if the various Sects killed all the Monstrous Beasts in the Trial Grounds, everyone understood that it was impossible to kill all the Monstrous Beasts in the Trial Grounds. In fact, even if all the major Sect's forces were gathered at the trial ground's core, they would not be able to approach it without paying a high price with their lives.
In this kind of situation, even if Elder Li had already guessed and discovered traces of the Zhao Family, it would not be an easy task to prove it. At the very least, there was no hope in the next one or two hundred years.
In addition, there was a very real problem. Even if they found the location of the Zhao Family, without the Zhao Family's means, how could the masters of the various Sect enter the core of the trial ground and launch an attack on the Zhao Family?
These were all problems that had to be considered, especially for the Mysterious Heaven Sect, which viewed the Zhao Family as an irreconcilable enemy. They had to think about how to deal with these problems.
"Elder Li, who else did you tell about this to?" Before Sect Master Wang could speak, Hall Master Zhu had already rushed to ask.
"This is a very important matter. How could I dare to tell outsiders?" Elder Li shook his head and quickly denied, "Even the Grand Supreme Elder who went with me didn't mention it. He rushed back all the way."
"Sect Master, this is a very important matter. I suggest that only the few of us here know about this." Hall Master Zhu immediately turned to Sect Master Wang and took the initiative to suggest, "Finding the Zhao Family is not something that can be done in a day. We have to be even more careful when dealing with them. Elder Li risked his life to obtain a clue, so we must not reveal it and alert the enemy. Otherwise, if the Zhao Family is a cunning rabbit with three burrows, it will be even more difficult for us to find the Zhao Family. "
The reason was very good, and the suggestion was very correct. If Elder Li hadn't talked to Yang Chen, he wouldn't have noticed any problems with Hall Master Zhu's suggestion.
However, right now, Elder Li's heart was filled with anger. This guy surnamed Zhu, no, this guy should be surnamed Zhao. He was definitely a spy from the Zhao Family hidden in the Mysterious Heaven Sect. It was him, there was no way to escape!
Hall Master Zhu would never have expected that his reactions would be predicted by others. He seemed to be following the path that Yang Chen had laid out for him, but he didn't realize that he had become Elder Li's enemy.
Elder Li was an old and cunning person. Even though he hated that he couldn't tear Hallmaster Zhu's body into ten thousand pieces, his bones and his ashes, his face didn't change in the slightest. Bystanders also couldn't see any change in his mood. Instead, he kept nodding as if he agreed with Hall Master Zhu's suggestion.
This suggestion was very appropriate, but with the current power of the Mysterious Heaven Sect, they really couldn't make it public. This was the Mysterious Heaven Sect's exclusive information. In the future, the Mysterious Heaven Sect might have to rely on this information that no one else knew to shine in the fight against the Zhao Family. No matter what, they couldn't leak this information. Even if they weren't afraid of the Zhao Family escaping, they still had to be wary of the other big Sect fighting for the credit!
"That's how it should be!" Sect Master Wang also nodded. The other core higher-ups also agreed. Sect Master Wang also followed the trend and made a decision.
"Elder Li has worked hard this time, so he should get the credit!" Sect Master Wang immediately added. Elder Li was a capable helper in his own sect. This time, he had risked his life to find this secret information, allowing the Mysterious Heaven Sect to gain the upper hand in the fight against the Zhao Family. His contribution couldn't be buried.
No one had any objections to this point. Next, everyone began to discuss how to proceed with the next step, which was to find the Zhao Family and kill them. Unfortunately, even though everyone had found a clue, it was still harder than ascending to heaven to complete the rest of the task.
However, everything was difficult at the beginning. Since they had found the general location of the Zhao Family, there was always a way to solve the later problems. The Zhao Family hadn't reacted yet. As long as they could gain the upper hand along the way, the rest would be natural.
Elder Li was now more and more proud of himself. After making such a contribution, everyone's impression of him was naturally different. Naturally, he had won the support of a portion of the disciples. This was definitely good news for the future.
Now, Elder Li only had one thing left, and that was to wait for Hall Master Zhu to make his move. As for how and when Hall Master Zhu would make his move, it wasn't difficult to guess. Now, everything was ready, and all that was left was the east wind.
