Chapter 1806 1806: Seeing Through It All
In just over a day, Su Chen and his group arrived at a place, which was agreed upon by everyone earlier!
At this moment, there were already many people there, about two hundred, but most were in the Cave Void Realm, with only a few in the Tongxuan Realm!
"Is everyone here?"
Old Xu asked with a smile.
"Almost everyone is here, except for two groups that are far away, but they should be arriving soon!"
An elder replied.
"Alright, we'll wait then."
Everyone rested on site and began to wait!
After about half a day, the two remaining groups arrived one after another, and then everyone set off!
At this moment, everyone was filled with passion, driven by a huge motivation to revenge their relatives and friends, heading in a certain direction!
Finally, after a few days' journey, they reached a mountain range, not large, but seemingly complex!
Su Chen thought to himself, no wonder the bandits chose this place as their stronghold, and no wonder the city sent people to besiege it without much result!
Of course, he also understood that those who came to besiege likely were not very committed!
Su Chen spoke to Old Xu and others who were gathered around him:
"Now, according to the plan we set before, everyone split into twelve groups, start searching from the key areas I marked, and if nothing is found, then expand the search to surrounding areas!"
As Su Chen spoke, people nodded and remembered his words!
"Remember, if you find anything, it's best to quietly capture them; if unsure, contact the two nearby teams for assistance."
Actually, Su Chen's method was already a last resort; the best approach would be to fully prepare and strike when those bandits attack again, and then follow the clues to wipe them out at once!
However, Lisan and his men had no regular pattern, sometimes pillaging multiple villages continuously, sometimes staying quiet for months!
And Su Chen could not wait here for such a long time, so he had to take this seemingly clumsy approach for now!
Luckily, Su Chen was not shooting blindly; he had integrated all kinds of information to come up with a relatively feasible plan!
It's a pity there is no satellite reconnaissance from Shadow here; otherwise, even if it couldn't locate them precisely, it could find the approximate location!
However, there is a good side, as these Martial Artists are much better than those before, whether in speed or Divine Sense, making the search faster.
Moreover, Su Chen had already marked the key positions!
"Alright! Young Master Su, rest assured, we've memorized it!"
At that moment, over two hundred people divided into twelve teams and headed in different directions in the mountains!
Su Chen, Old Xu, and a few others were in one team; actually, he wanted to be alone, but Old Xu was worried, so Su Chen had to accept his company for now!
In the mountains, Su Chen walked casually, chatting with Old Xu and of course keeping an eye on the surroundings...
...
Time gradually passed, two or three days, everything was normal, and there was no discovery!
"Young Master Su, do you think we might return empty-handed this time?"
At this moment, Old Xu couldn't help feeling a bit worried!
"Only two or three days, Old Xu, no need to rush!"
Su Chen smiled slightly.
"Indeed, I was too anxious!"
Old Xu was somewhat embarrassed hearing this and smiled.
Actually, Su Chen understood; Old Xu and the others came with immense grief and anger this time, swearing to slaughter those bastards!
If Su Chen himself encountered such things, he couldn't imagine what crazy actions he might take!
Blood flowing like rivers would likely fall far short!
Even hearing their stories, Su Chen was already furious!
Otherwise, why would he involve himself in this for no reason?
Several hours went by, suddenly, someone rushed over hurriedly!
"Why did you come here, did something happen?"
Seeing this person, Old Xu quickly asked.
"Old Xu, Young Master Su, we've captured someone. Initially, we wanted to extract some information, but that person is quite tough and hasn't said a word!"
"Oh, where is this person now?"
Su Chen asked.
"I'll take you there!"
The person said because Old Xu initiated this operation, and the plan was made by Su Chen, their opinions naturally took precedence!
"Alright!"
Su Chen immediately said, and the group followed the young man towards a direction!
One or two hours later, they reached a relatively hidden place!
There, a dozen or so people were watching a man!
"Is it this guy?"
Old Xu looked at the man and asked.
"Yes, it's this guy!"
One of them snorted coldly, giving him a hefty yank!
Su Chen noticed this person had suffered heavy internal injuries, along with some external wounds!
The internal injuries should be from the fight when capturing him; Su Chen had instructed that actions must be swift to ensure no failures!
Since this person was only at the First Turn of the Tongxuan Realm, achieving that was not difficult!
As Su Chen arranged, every team had about two in the Tongxuan Realm, and if unsure, they could contact the closest two teams for support!
Of course, for this person, that wasn't necessary!
As for his external wounds, those were obviously from interrogation techniques by others!
But his injuries were not severe; it was hard enough to catch someone, killing him would not be wise!
"He hasn't said a word?"
Su Chen nudged one person aside and asked quietly.
"No, this bastard is tight-lipped!"
The person replied angrily:
"I even threatened to kill him, but to no avail! Didn't expect he'd be someone unafraid of death!"
"Unafraid of death? That's not necessarily true!"
Su Chen glanced playfully at the person:
"Leave it to me!"
Su Chen patted the person's shoulder and then walked towards the captured man, a smile playing on his lips!
At this moment, the man was held by two or three people, making escape completely impossible!
Even so, he didn't show too much panic on his face!
Just when he saw Su Chen's inscrutable smile, he couldn't help but shiver!
Suddenly, a thought raced through his mind, I don't fear those people, why would I fear this kid, thinking this, he raised his head and snorted:
"Kid, what do you want? Let me tell you, don't expect to get a word out of me!"
"Really?"
Su Chen tilted his head with a meaningful smile:
"I know what you're thinking?"
"What do you mean?"
The man's voice trembled.
Although he had just reassured himself that this young man was nothing special, the smile again made him uneasy, as if his thoughts had been completely seen through!
"You're waiting for someone, aren't you!"
Su Chen looked at him and said:
"Here the guards should not only be you, but rather multiple people, and at a certain time, you'd rotate in patrols!"
