The Xiao Family had benefited, receiving three hundred thousand taels of silver.
The Three Towns suffered few losses; only Iron Wall Town lost some grain due to Li Changqing's negligence.
Liu Wen and Black Tooth were dead.
Xiao Dongchen had taken his own life.

Even counting "Sword Madman" Liu Lang, it was at most the work of one and a half people.
'How is that possible?'
Even if one man's schemes were inhumanly clever, how could he have predicted everyone's reactions? How could he have played all sides? How could he have set so many traps for others?
And it wasn't as if Liu Wen, Xiao Dongchen, or Black Tooth were fools.
How could they have been so utterly defeated?
