Chapter 1457: There is no possibility

Consequently, under these circumstances, the Wang Mu of Kunlun instead calmed down.

Silently, she began to ponder in her heart how to crack the puzzle of the Flowing Sands River before her.

'By now, the one hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces have already searched the Flowing Sands River from inside to out, from bottom to top.'

'Yet even so, there is still no sign of General Juan Lian.'

'This means that either General Juan Lian is no longer in the Flowing Sands River, or he has used a method I did not think of, or did not notice, to evade the search of the one hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces.'

At this moment, the Wang Mu of Kunlun began to carefully contemplate every possibility in her heart.

On the other side.

The Heavenly Court.

Within the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

Heavenly Emperor Haotian watched the scene within the Flowing Sands River.

Even after deploying one hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces for a dragnet search.

In the end, there was still no sign of General Juan Lian.

Even now, Heavenly Emperor Haotian, who had been in a mindset of watching a show, felt that as the Heavenly Emperor.

He had lost face.

Taishang Laojun also noticed the change in Heavenly Emperor Haotian's expression at this moment.

Based on the scene at the Flowing Sands River, Taishang Laojun only needed to ponder slightly to guess Heavenly Emperor Haotian's current thoughts quite accurately.

Therefore, under these circumstances, Taishang Laojun spoke up:

"Your Majesty, it appears that one hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces are simply not enough."

"Since that is the case, why does Your Majesty not dispatch another one hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces? In this way, two hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces will gather in the Flowing Sands River."

"Even if General Juan Lian had grown wings, he would surely be unable to escape such a search."

Heavenly Emperor Haotian heard Taishang Laojun's words, but his heart held a rare difference of opinion from Taishang Laojun.

"Laojun, what you say is not something I have not considered."

"However, the one hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces did not find a trace of General Juan Lian."

"Even if we double that number, could the result really change?"

"I do not agree with this move!"

Taishang Laojun naturally did not expect that dispatching another one hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces would be enough to find General Juan Lian, who was hiding in the Flowing Sands River.

However, the reason Taishang Laojun did this was naturally because.

He was already prepared to take action in this situation.

But General Juan Lian was currently hiding in the Flowing Sands River, and even he, Taishang Laojun, could not find him, nor could he see even a hint of a clue.

Under these circumstances, even if Taishang Laojun wanted to act, he needed an opportunity—an opportunity to find General Juan Lian.

However, Taishang Laojun was even clearer on one point: that such an opportunity was impossible to achieve by waiting alone.

Therefore, Taishang Laojun needed Heavenly Emperor Haotian to dispatch another one hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces. In this way.

With two hundred thousand Heavenly River naval forces gathered in the Flowing Sands River, no matter how exquisite General Juan Lian's concealment methods were.

Under such circumstances, he would inevitably feel a sense of pressure.

Once there was pressure, General Juan Lian would eventually reveal a flaw.

Even if it were only the slightest flaw, in the eyes of Taishang Laojun, it would be fatal.

Taishang Laojun would be fully capable of following such a tiny flaw to track him down and drag General Juan Lian, who was hiding in the Flowing Sands River, out.

In this way, the tribulation of the Flowing Sands River that Tang Sanzang was facing could be resolved.
