Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming

"Then the junior will take his leave first, and should there be any news, the junior will find a way to contact and inform Senior Zhou again."

Lin Wan'er said and then quietly left.

Watching her departure, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun looked at each other, both seeing the gravity in each other's eyes.

Then Zhou Mingde quickly asked, "Zhengchun, do you think Lin Hongyu's claim is reliable? If the Dragon Transformation Sect is truly using the Azure Dragon Sub-Temple as bait, what could their real scheme be?"

"Lin Hongyu should have no need to deceive us. She must be aware that, based on her vague news alone, even if we do report it upward, it's unlikely to convince the Golden Core cultivators to believe, at most it would just put them on higher alert!"

Zhou Chun said this, pausing for a moment, then with a deep frown, continued, "However, if the Azure Dragon Sub-Temple really is bait, then the true intentions of the Dragon Transformation Sect are intriguing."

"You must understand that the Azure Dragon Sub-Temple currently gathers much of the essence of the Dragon Transformation Sect. If these people were to die here, the sect might not be destroyed, but it would be hard for them to achieve anything significant for some time!"

Wars are fought over populations and resources.

The Dragon Transformation Sect has abundant resources, but its population pales in comparison to Jingguo Country.

And now, the Azure Dragon Sub-Temple is where many of the elite of the Dragon Transformation Sect are gathered. Numerous Elders and protectors from several halls are clustered there.

If these people were annihilated, even if the three sects of Jingguo Country were driven out of the Wasteland Territory, the Dragon Transformation Sect would not be the victor.

Of course, the same was true for the three sects of Jingguo Country.

Zhou Chun felt that if he were the Sect Hierarch of the Dragon Transformation Sect, unless he had great confidence, he certainly wouldn't dare risk the lives of such a large part of the sect's elite cultivators.

After hearing his response, Zhou Mingde pondered briefly and then said, looking at him, "Do you think this could be a ruse of the Dragon Transformation Sect to feign attack in one place but strike another? Ostensibly, they are confronting the three sects of Jingguo Country at the Azure Dragon Sub-Temple, but in reality, they are dispatching their elite forces to relieve the besieged Azure Dragon Hall at the Azure Dragon Sub-Temple, to defeat the Corpse Demon Sect first, and then join forces with the people of Azure Dragon Hall to attack us from both sides!"

At these words, Zhou Chun slightly shook his head, "That's not very realistic. The Corpse Demon Sect is not weak. If they have made a move, the Dragon Transformation Sect can't easily defeat them with just a small part of their elite forces!"

"And even if they could rout the Corpse Demon Sect, what then? The combined strength of the three major sects still surpasses the Dragon Transformation Sect, and they are not necessarily afraid of a direct confrontation!"

Speaking to this point, Zhou Chun's gaze became more intense. He said with a serious tone, "If it truly is a feint, I am more inclined to believe they would attack Jingguo Country's homeland, intentionally provoking panic to force the three major sects to withdraw their troops or redeploy them for defense!"

Having said this, he sighed lightly with a puzzled face, "But the three major sects must have also considered this. The forces remaining to guard the Jingguo homeland should be sufficient to deal with a small elite force of the Dragon Transformation Sect!"

Feigning attacks one place and striking another, encircling Wei to rescue Zhao—none of these are clever tactics.

The three sects of Jingguo Country have been preparing for a long time and would not lack precautions against this.

Nor is the Dragon Transformation Sect in such dire straits that they would foolishly rely on such a dangerous method to break the siege.

So at this moment, both Zhou Chun and Zhou Mingde felt very puzzled by the actions of the Dragon Transformation Sect.

After discussing for half a day, they still could not come up with any reasonable conclusions.

In the end, they could only decide for Zhou Mingde to look for an opportunity to suggest to Taoist Mingjing that the enemy might be using the Azure Dragon Sub-Temple as bait.
