Silence

Lin Xiao did know that there was some chaos in Yue Da Sect., but he never expected that the chaos was actually that much. Looking at how calm Sui Wenyan was, he knew for sure that it was nothing much for her to destroy the sect back then.

He didn't say anything for a while before he looked at Sui Wenyan and the other. "Do you want to do it by yourself or do you want me to help?"

"By ourselves."

No matter what, Lin Xiao himself was not involved in the matter of Taiyi Sect back then. In fact, Lin Xiao was only an outsider who was wishing to enter the sect when he was young, yet he couldn't because he was too weak back then. Now that he could, the sect had disappeared. 

Besides, Sui Wenyan and the others wanted to settle the grudges that they have by themselves before they build the new Taiyi Sect. 

Lin Xiao nodded. "Alright, I'll just watch from a distance. In case you're in any danger whatsoever, I'll barge in to help."

"We'll be fine."

At this time, the door was opened and Zhongsun Shan walked in. he arched his eyebrows when he saw the guests sitting in the living room. "Why are there so many people here today?"

"We're here to discuss the plan to annihilate the three sects."

"Oh? Didn't we already agree to enter the sect by disguising ourselves as their disciples?"

Lin Xiao was looking at Zhongsun Shan with bewilderment. Just a few years ago, Zhongsun Shan was still at weakened state at Foundation Establishment. Now that he met with the young man again, he could clearly sense that Zhongsun Shan was already at Golden Core Stage.

It seemed that returning back to one's stage was faster than when one first attempted to enter a particular stage.

Well, that was quite obvious.

However, looking at how calm Zhongsun Shan was, Lin Xiao could guess that the young man didn't feel that much burdened by the fact that he used to be genius but now he was more mediocre. In fact, he looked much better than Qiu Si.

"How did you plan to sneak in?" Fan Ling asked.

"And you are?"

"Ah…" Lin Xiao proceeded to introduce them all to Zhongsun Shan and also Qiu Si before they proceeded with their talk. Zhongsun Shan also trusted Lin Xiao, so he didn't care whether he knew or not because it wouldn't change anything from his planning. 

"I'll use some medicine to trick them. Besides, make up is quite easy with Sui Wenyan's help." Wenren Yu grinned. Medicine was used to make sure that they didn't look much difference while make up was to imitate their appearance.

Lin Xiao blinked his eyes. "How about their personal relationships?"

"Don't worry, Qiu Si had already scouted there." Zhongsun Shan smiled. Since he was used to work in the auction house, Qiu Si also got the chance to interact with some groups there and there was a group that they were targeting to get inside the sect.

Lin Xiao nodded. "Alright. Need any help?"

"Just make sure that no one knew we have left from here. I'm taking a leave next week to attend to my sick wife."

Qiu Si nodded. "I'll be staying at home."

"Well, I guess I'm just a busy neighborhood who just returned and keep helping to watch over you two." Lin Xiao smiled helplessly. He didn't really like to act, but if it was necessary, he didn't mind to do so.

They chatted with each other a bit more before Lin Xiao returned to his own house with the others. He glanced at his younger brother. "What do you think of their plan?"

"It's not bad at all. However, I don't know whether they'll succeed or not." Lin Yun furrowed his brows. "Besides, there's also the problem whether they could handle the difference in number or not."

"Number is not a problem. Both Zhongsun Shan and Sui Wenyan have already advanced to Golden Core Stage while the other two were at peak of Foundation Stage. Even if they got a bit overwhelmed, they would be able to cover it up with the use of poisons. Wenren Yu will be able to hold it well."

"True…"

Just like Lin Yun would be able to use poison, Wenren Yu would be able to do it at an even better efficiency and also effectivity.

"The problem is whether they could catch them unprepared or not." Fan Ling played with her fan. She smiled. "Even if they managed to get inside and stay there, it's not certain that they'll be able to strike in time at the most appropriate time. That's the biggest problem they have."

Lin Xiao nodded. He looked at the other house and sighed. Because it didn't really involve him, he would not be able to participate directly in the fight. However, he would like to watch them in order to make sure that they would be able to stay alive and survive well in their task.

"Would you like to help them out, Brother?" Lin Yun asked.

"Even if I want to help, I don't think that they will want my help. We're just going to watch for the next few days, then. In the meantime, maybe we can try to get our chance to make our breakthrough after some time?"

The others: "..." do you think that people can make breakthrough as easy as drinking water?

Looking at their expression, Lin Xiao chose to retreat back to his room and no longer try to speak with the others. Their expression looked as if they were itching to give him a good beating.

'Lin Xiao.'

'What?'

'you're an idiot.'

Lin Xiao: "…"

On the other hand, those outside were looking at each other. Lin Yun sighed. "Let's just make sure that we're not treated as weird people here while protecting Brother."

"Ok."

"I'll check if there's more room first."

"There should be enough rooms here. It's not like this house only have one room."

"Oh, right."
