Then he suppressed his thoughts and began to concentrate on handling the many matters at hand.

After leaving Ascension Mountain, Li Zhirui identified the direction and then flew towards the southeast.
Xuling Palace is located southeast of Tongtian Sect!
As the leader of the allied army, he should have departed from Xuling Palace.
"Hmm?"

Where he paused now was only three thousand miles from the Mountain Gate of Xuling Palace, and in a moment he could arrive. Even if the army had mobilized, he should have seen them by now, so why were there no traces at all?
In this situation, there were only two reasons: either they chose a different direction, or they hadn't set out yet.
