\nWang Di and Wang Manyun hesitated for a moment and scrambled to keep up with Qin Shou.\nThey had matured a lot since the war against the Suomo Sect. They already left behind their grudge against Qin Shou, though he had mocked them times without number. \nLi Taixuan focused on the disciples in the square, eyes running down them and staying with Lin Xiao in the end.\nRight then, he found it extremely hard to find a proper way to put into words how he felt about Lin.\nFeeling awkward with his stare, Lin Xiao cleared his throat to catch his attention.\n"Esteemed Patriarch, what should we do next?"\nOn hearing that, Li Taixuan soon came back t himself.\nHe couldn't let down the Taixuan disciples who stayed loyal to him — they were expecting his instructions. \nSorted was the Suomo Sect; gone were the Piaomiao disciples. Everything came back in place. \nLin Xiao bade him make decisions at his own discretion, though he had long been accustomed to Lin Xiao's arrangements.\nWheels turning, he set about putting together further plans.
"With such a momentous incident taking place, our annual martial contest won't be able to move on. Now we have to take a rain check and get otherwise engaged. You know, we have something more important to do."\nThe Taixuan disciples fixed eyes on him across the board, waiting for his instructions.\n"For your information, not only the Suomo martial masters but also the Suomo Sect as a whole had been wiped out!"\nHe started with a piece of smashing news.\nThe disciples started exclaiming in ecstasy after a minute of stupefaction.\nThey had every reason to go wild today. It had grieved them for over a year to have suffered from the Suomo Sect's pressure.\nLi Taixuan didn't move on until they had a frenzy to their hearts' content.\n"Nevertheless, you know we rushed through our victory, hence, we didn't get around to collecting our spoils. I'd like to have some of you offer me a hand."\nHardly had his voice faded away when numerous disciples put up their hands, craving the opportunity.\nLin Xiao stood out as well, proposing a revisit to the Suomo Sect.
As a matter of fact, Li Taixuan intended to turn him away. He had a second thought and changed his mind — the Suomo Sect was all safe now, and a wonderland in there might be a strong appeal to Lin.\nHence, he gave Lin Xiao his permission.\nOn hearing Lin Xiao's proposal, Wu Gui and Li Xuan expressed their will to join him. \nRight then, Wang Di, Wang Manyun and Wu Gui headed back and hoped to tag along.\nLi Taixuan accepted their requests with no exceptions.\nThey soon formed a spoil collection squad, along with other dozens of disciples.\nThose who failed to grab the opportunity still retained their morale — they knew there would be loads of chances like this waiting for them in the near future.\nLi Taixuan arranged for the tertiary chief senior to escort Lin Xiao for the sake of his safety.\nIn the meantime, the other two chief seniors stayed behind to take care of routine issues.\nThe Taixuan Spoil Collection Squad, helmed by the tertiary chief senior, soon left for the Suomo Sect.\n
