In Lin Shikang's courtyard, the six remaining members of the Lin Family of Shi's generation sat inside, chatting.
After the great battle, clan affairs entangled them, and those who were in seclusion stayed secluded, never gathering together.
Now, as matters had gradually been handled and the Lin Family had returned to the right track, it was naturally time to account for the family's losses and gains.
After some idle chat, Lin Shihua took out a book and, following the recorded counts, began to report. Lin Shikang and the others listened attentively.
The Lin Family's losses were huge in this battle: not only did more than twenty clan members die in battle, but a substantial amount of elixirs, talismans, and spiritual artifacts were consumed, depleting years of accumulated resources.
After reporting the losses, it was time to inventory the gains.
