Chapter 1192: Encirclement
While Qi Xuansu was speaking with Du Yuhua, Little Yin quietly made her way to Wang Jiaohe’s body. She first picked up Wang Jiaohe’s jade ruler, which was a semi-immortal object.
However, spoils of this kind usually had to be turned over to the Daoist Order to be redistributed. They could not be privately kept.
The magical receptacle Wang Jiaohe carried also had to be handed over.
That was because Qi Xuansu was only able to kill Wang Jiaohe by relying on the power of the Daoist Order. He was also acting as the Golden Tower Council’s representative. Naturally, the gains had to be turned over to the Daoist Order.
After all, this was not Jianghu, where everything could be stuffed into one’s own pockets.
Qi Xuansu saw Little Yin’s actions from afar and barked, “No taking things for personal use!”
Little Yin pouted, but she did not argue back because she knew the rules.
She then shifted her gaze toward the headless corpse.
By then, Qi Xuansu had already dismissed Du Yuhua and Du Fuzhou. He cast a sidelong glance at Little Yin and said, “That won’t do either. No matter what, he was still an Omniscient Sage. We should hand his body over to the Ciji Hall.”
Little Yin rolled her eyes and snorted. “I was just looking. I didn’t mean anything else.”
Qi Xuansu did not call her out on it. Instead, he consoled her by saying, “In a few days, I’m going to Lion City to reorganize the Nanyang United Trading Company, so I’ll take you along.”
Little Yin’s eyes lit up. “Yay, it’s a deal! Pinky swear—no backsies!”
