"Establish their authority!?"
Lu Chengwen was a little surprised.
"Yeah." Yu Kuohai said, "They want to take first place here, then drift away gracefully, leaving every sect intimidated. Laojun Mountain rarely makes a move, but when it does, it plays a trump card. That way, when people from Laojun Mountain travel around in the future, they'll be respected everywhere they go."
Lu Chengwen was puzzled. "So are they indifferent to fame and profit, or do they want some standing in the martial world? This sect is so contradictory!"

Yu Kuohai sighed. "Don't force yourselves. Just make a respectable exit from the stage."
Lu Chengwen smiled. "Patriarch Yu, you and I count as old acquaintances, don't we?"
"Of course, of course."
"The arrangement can be divided up again. The five of us can guarantee it
