Just as Wei Jiuduan finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by Gu Jiangliu.
Looking at Wei Jiuduan, Gu Jiangliu spoke in a deep voice, "Lord Wei, you seem to have misunderstood. My Swordking City isn't here to cooperate with your Guanzhong torture room. We are just here to inform you that my Swordking City is going to take action in Guanxi. Cooperation is impossible. My Swordking City has never had the habit of cooperating with others. If your Guanzhong torture room wants to intervene, then just follow behind us and assist us. "
Previously, no matter how arrogant Gu Jiangliu's group was, or how dissatisfied Chu Xiu's group was, Wei Jiuduan didn't say anything. But now, Gu Jiangliu was a little too much.
This was Guanzhong, and Gu Jiangliu actually wanted the Guanzhong torture room's people to assist them. What was this? Did he not put the Guanzhong torture room in his eyes?
Wei Jiuduan spoke with a gloomy expression, "Mister Gu, don't forget, this is the Guanzhong torture room!"
Gu Jiangliu spoke indifferently, "I know this is the Guanzhong torture room. If this wasn't the Guanzhong torture room, do you think my Swordking City's people would need to inform you in advance?"
Gu Jiangliu's words were overbearing, but it was the truth.
Chu Xiu had experienced this before. Back when he was being pursued by the Morgue Manor and the Northern Drifting Snow City, he came to the Azure Wave Sword Sect's territory. As the Azure Wave Sword Sect was too weak, the Morgue Manor and the Northern Drifting Snow City didn't put the Azure Wave Sword Sect in their eyes. They didn't even inform the Azure Wave Sword Sect. This also caused the three factions to be provoked by Chu Xiu's case and finally shed all pretenses of cordiality.
With how overbearing the Swordking City was, Gu Jiangliu was willing to inform Wei Jiuduan, the Guanxi Penal Officer. This was obviously giving him face.
Moreover, in terms of individual strength, Gu Jiangliu didn't put Wei Jiuduan in his eyes.
Gu Jiangliu looked young, only in his early thirties. In fact, he was indeed very young. His real age was only forty.
Wei Jiuduan had cultivated for more than a hundred years to reach the realm of the unity of man and nature, while Gu Jianglu had only used more than twenty years to reach the peak of the Five Qis Collecting the Origin. It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before the unity of man and nature was just around the corner. When facing Wei Jiuduan, he didn't have the slightest awe.
Furthermore, even though Wei Jiuduan still had the cultivation of the Unity of Heaven and Man realm, he was actually very old. If they were to really fight, it was not certain who would win.
Chu Xiu and the others were looking at Wei Jiuduan. The Swordking City's people were so overbearing and unreasonable, but Wei Jiuduan didn't say anything?
However, Chu Xiu and the others felt that it was a pity that Wei Jiuduan didn't say anything.
He just suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a cold voice, "I can cooperate with your Swordking City, but your Swordking City should have some sense of propriety. If you disturb the order in the pass because of your actions, the people from the Main Hall will naturally come down to deal with you!"
Seeing Wei Jiuduan make such a concession in front of the Swordking City's warriors, Chu Xiu and the others were somewhat dissatisfied. Wei Jiuduan was too cowardly.
In fact, Wei Jiuduan wasn't really a coward. He was afraid of the Swordking City's people. He just didn't want to cause trouble.
He knew that he wouldn't be able to stay in the position of the Disciplinary Officer for many years. In that case, it was better to avoid trouble.
He had a conflict with the Swordking City's people. Moreover, the Swordking City's people were famous for being domineering and overbearing in the pugilistic world. If they were to get entangled in a fight, it might cause a lot of trouble.
Therefore, he would make a concession as long as it didn't affect his own interests.
However, since he made a concession as the superior, Chu Xiu's subordinates naturally couldn't act out. They felt very sullen.
Wei Jiuduan said to Yang Ling in a muffled voice, "During this time, you will follow the Swordking City's people. If they have any requests, pass them on to the Inspectors. Try to cooperate with them as much as possible."
After saying that, Wei Jiuduan turned around and left.
Gu Jiangliu didn't care. He just asked Yang Ling who was next to him, "Where was the last time the Ghost King Sect's people were seen?"
Yang Ling glanced at Chu Xiu and said, "It was in Official Chu's Jianzhou Prefecture."
Gu Jiangliu said lightly, "Alright, let's go to Jianzhou Prefecture now."
Yang Ling walked to Chu Xiu's side and said with a smile, "Official Chu, since Adoptive Father wants us to cooperate with the Swordking City's people, we can only do so. Let's go with them."
Chu Xiu frowned slightly. The Swordking City's people came, but they turned out to be people from the Guanzhong torture room. They actually cooperated with outsiders to act in their own territory. They were really cowards.
However, since Wei Jiuduan said this, Chu Xiu naturally couldn't refute it. He just said lightly, "Since that's the case, then follow me."
After arriving at the Jianzhou Prefecture's Inspector Hall, Chu Xiu said to the Swordking City's people, "We have already noticed the Ghost King Sect's people's whereabouts. I also fought with them once, but the Ghost King Sect's people's cultivation method is too evil, so they escaped."
Hearing up to this point, Lin Kaiyun suddenly sneered and said, "What a joke. You actually let them escape even after finding them. Those people from the Ghost King Sect are trash. My Swordking City's people chased them all over the world, yet you actually failed to catch them."
Lin Kaiyun said that the Ghost King Sect's people were trash, but if they couldn't catch the Ghost King Sect's Chu Xiu, wouldn't they be even more trash?
Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu's subordinates glared at the Swordking City's people. The Ghost Hand King sneered and said, "Official Chu went to catch a warrior in the Three Flower Realm at One's Prominence. What's so strange about them escaping? Also, if you people from the Swordking City are capable, you would have wiped out the Ghost King Sect a long time ago. Why did you chase them all the way to Guanzhong? "
Hearing the Ghost Hand King's words, Lin Kaiyun's eyes suddenly showed a hint of fierceness.
He had a bad temper to begin with, and he had just come out of seclusion this time. He wanted to make a name for himself in the world and catch up to his senior brother. However, when he came out of seclusion, he found that his ranking had fallen instead of advancing. Chu Xiu had pushed him out of the top 20. He had been suppressing his anger.
Now, even a Jianghu constable from the Guanzhong Disciplinary Hall dared to mock him. This made Lin Kaiyun's anger immediately surge. He snorted coldly and said, "Who do you think you are? Do you have the right to speak here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Kaiyun flicked out a sharp sword finger, shooting directly at the Ghost Hand King's shoulder blade. He did not intend to kill, but if this extremely sharp sword finger were to hit the Ghost Hand King, one of his arms would probably be crippled.
Chu Xiu stretched out his hand and turned it into a knife. The Blood Refined Divine Gang suddenly burst out, shattering the sword finger. He said coldly, "This is Guanzhong, the Guanzhong of the Guanzhong torture room! What, the people of the Guanzhong torture room don't even have the right to speak here? Everyone says that the Swordking City is overbearing, but you people are still so overbearing in the Guanzhong area. Does your sectmaster know? I don't have the right to speak, but I don't know if Hall Master Guan has the right. Do you need me to report this matter to the headquarters? "
Lin Kaiyun still wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Gu Jiangliu, who frowned and said, "Enough, stop fooling around. We came for the Ghost King Sect this time. Some of the Ghost King Sect's remnants were injured by Uncle-Master's Sky-burning Sword Qi, so they can't escape too far. They can only recuperate in the Guanzhong area. We don't have time to waste, or else they might escape to somewhere after they recover."
Lin Kaiyun heard this and snorted coldly, not saying anything.
Seeing Lin Kaiyun's expression, Chu Xiu also sneered in his heart, not saying anything.
No wonder Lin Kaiyun lived under the shadow of Fang Qi Shao all his life. This person was far inferior to Fang Qi Shao.
They were both outstanding talents of the younger generation. It was normal to be suppressed by outsiders, but it was indeed a bit sullen to be suppressed by a fellow disciple.
But some people could turn this kind of pressure into motivation. Obviously, Lin Kaiyun didn't. He just turned this pressure into anger and resentment.
What great achievements could a person who couldn't even control the emotions in his heart achieve in the future?
At least in the original plot, Chu Xiu had heard of the name 'Sword Leader' Fang Qi Shao, but he had never heard of Lin Kaiyun's name.
There were only two endings for this person in the future. Either he was killed halfway, or he would forever live under the shadow of Fang Qi Shao and be unknown.
Gu Jiangliu looked at Chu Xiu and said in a low voice, "Chu Xiu, Lord Wei said that as long as the Swordking City goes, the Guanzhong Torture Room should try their best to cooperate, and I won't make things difficult for you.
This group of people from the Ghost King Sect killed people in your Jianzhou Prefecture, and it will also affect your Guanzhong Torture Room. The sooner you get rid of these remnants of evil, the sooner you can be at ease.
I don't care what you've done before, but now that the Swordking City's people are here, all you can do is cooperate.
Now, transfer your subordinates to me. Listen to our command and cooperate with us to search the prefectures one by one. I don't believe that we can't find any traces of these people from the Ghost King Sect! "
As soon as these words came out, even Du Guangzhong, who had a good temper, couldn't accept it.
The Swordking City's people were simply conceited to the point of considering everyone else.
When it came to searching for traces and investigating traces, the Jianghu constables from the Guanzhong Torture Room were naturally the most experienced.
But now, the Swordking City's people excluded them and didn't listen to their opinions at all. They made them do odd jobs. This was simply insane!
Du Guangzhong and the others also looked at Chu Xiu. No matter how arrogant the Swordking City's people were, they didn't have the final say in this place.
At this time, Yang Ling walked to Chu Xiu's side and said in a low voice, "Official Chu, don't cause trouble. Don't forget Foster Father's instructions. Try to cooperate with the Swordking City's people and smoothly deal with the Ghost King Sect. That's the right thing to do."
Chu Xiu's expression was gloomy as he said, "Old Du, take some people and cooperate with them."
After saying that, Chu Xiu turned around and left with the Ghost Hand Monarch and the others.
Du Guangzhong and the others shook their heads helplessly. The higher the rank, the higher the rank. Chu Xiu's character was very strong, but what could they do when Wei Jiuduan didn't want to cause trouble?
