The Suomo Sect reinforced their troop to hundreds of warriors due to the primary chief senior's remark.
Seeing their force rapidly booming, the Taixuan disciples went in despair.
The venom of the pellets still stayed with them: they didn't stand a chance.
Some disciples even made an insane move out of sheer desperation — they drew close to the Suomo Sect in spite of themselves, though they were no traitors at all.
They had no option but to save their own life; they were fully aware that the Taixuan Sect's doomsday had come.
Under such a hopeless circumstance, they could do nothing more than saving themselves.
The external disciples predominated over others among those who turned their coat.
The three chief seniors bore witness to the agonizing scene on the dais. But they acquiesced in that.
So did the Suomo guys at the center of the square.
They would have to reinforce their staff after the annexation of the Taixuan Sect after all. Hence, they were happy to see them come over and pledge allegiance.
In the meantime, Lin Xiao retreated toward the dais, escorted by Wu Gui.
As a matter of fact, all the disciples who decided to dedicate to the Taixuan Sect were heading to the dais simultaneously.
Right then, Wu Gui, Wang Di, and even Wang Manyun formed a circle to protect Lin Xiao.
Wang Manyun was especially agitated. Though constantly shuddering out of extreme fear, she still decided to link her own destiny with the sect. In addition, she still remembered to protect Lin Xiao.
Nevertheless, none of them was aware of Lin Xiao's reaction — he was actually observing the whole thing with composure, eyes running down the chaotic crowd.
In the beginning, he stayed at ease. All of a sudden, something weird popped up in his eyes.
He spotted something unexpected — Qin Shou was wavering between two sides, looking pretty hesitant.
On that occasion, Qin Shou was supposed to join the Youming disciples and pledge allegiance to the Suomo Sect. His reacted otherwise.
At that moment, he shifted his glances between the dais and the Suomo Sect. He hadn't made up his mind yet.
Right then, a tinge of smile popped up on Lin Xiao's face. He found Qin Shou pretty interesting.
He wished if only he could have got an idea of Qin Shou's thoughts just in the way he did to Diling. What a shame, he failed to do so.
While Lin Xiao was speculating on what Qin Shou's would go for, Qin Shou made a move.
