Wei Hanshan's move was obviously harming others without benefiting himself. He was harming Chu Xiu, and he would not benefit from it.
Gu Jiangliu nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it."
With that, Gu Jiangliu waved his hand and led the warriors of Swordking City to carry out the order.
After everyone left, Chu Xiu looked at Wei Hanshan and said coldly, "Wei Hanshan, you broke the rules! You have to use outsiders to solve the grievances within the Guanzhong torture room. This is not a good habit. "
Wei Hanshan snorted and said, "Chu Xiu, thanks to you, the Chenzhou Prefecture that I have painstakingly managed for years has been taken away. Why should I care about the rules? Today's matter is just the beginning. Don't think that no one can touch you just because you have a connection with Lord Wei. The waters of the Guanxi region are deep! Sooner or later, you, Chu Xiu, will cry! "
With that, Wei Hanshan turned around and left. However, at this time, Chu Xiu looked at Wei Hanshan with a deep and cold gaze.
"Old Du, what other background does this Wei Hanshan have? Where does this guy get the confidence to say this to me? "Chu Xiu asked Du Guangzhong, who was beside him.
He felt that today, Wei Hanshan seemed to have gained some sort of confidence and was very confident.
Now that Chu Xiu had completely stabilized his position as Patrol, Du Guangzhong had also figured out Wei Jiuduan's character and attitude. This person was harsh and ungrateful, but he was greedy beyond measure. As long as Chu Xiu could bring him absolute benefits, Wei Jiuduan would protect him.
Just like Wei Hanshan before Chu Xiu came to Guanxi, Wei Hanshan was the one who could bring the most benefits to Wei Jiuduan. Therefore, he was the most favored one among the Patrols.
Now, this person had been replaced by Chu Xiu. Thus, before someone who could give Wei Hanshan even more benefits appeared, Chu Xiu's position could not be replaced by anyone else.
Du Guangzhong hesitated for a moment before saying, "This subordinate has heard of a rumor that Wei Hanshan is the illegitimate child of the Nine Plains Wei Clan, and is even from a branch family. It was only because he was not valued by the Wei Clan that he chose to come to the Guanzhong Torture Room. Moreover, it is said that the Nine Plains Wei Clan has secretly supported Wei Hanshan in his current position. Now that Wei Hanshan has suffered a loss at your hands, could it be that Wei Hanshan sought help from the Wei Family and obtained some sort of guarantee, which is why he is so confident? "
"Nine Plains Wei Family?" Chu Xiu was a little confused. He had never heard of this name. However, Chu Xiu had vaguely heard that Wei Hanshan had some connections in the Guanxi Wulin.
Du Guangzhong explained, "The Nine Plains Wei Clan is a large clan that straddles the Guanxi and Guandong regions. They are located in the Jiuyuan Prefecture at the border of the two regions. The head of the Wei Clan has the strength of the Five Qis Collecting in Origin State, which is quite famous in the entire Guanzhong region."
The fact that the Nine Plains Wei Clan could add the name of the region in front of their clan's name was already enough to prove the power of the Wei Clan. This was also a custom in the Jianghu.
For example, the Fluttering Snow City of the Far North. In the Far North, Fluttering Snow City reigned supreme, which was why it was called the Fluttering Snow City of the Far North. It was the same for the Swordking City of the Western Desert.
For example, the small clans in the Jianzhou Prefecture, such as the Jiang Clan of Qi City and the Gao Clan of Wen City, could only be named after their respective cities. None of them dared to call themselves a clan in the Jianzhou Prefecture.
Since the Nine Plains Wei Clan could name itself after the entire Jiuyuan Prefecture, it was obvious that the Wei Clan could be said to be the most powerful clan in the Jiuyuan Prefecture.
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows. If the Nine Plains Wei Clan was really behind Wei Hanshan, then this Wei Clan was really different from the rest. they really knew how to play.
For example, when other martial arts forces faced the Guanzhong Torture Room, their instinctive choice was to resist and be cautious.
But this Wei Clan chose to support an illegitimate son of their own to enter the Guanzhong Torture Room. Were they preparing to cultivate their own forces?
At the moment, Wei Hanshan was just an ordinary inspector. His status was too far away from the Nine Plains Wei Clan. But if Chu Xiu was not around, Wei Hanshan was the youngest inspector in the Guanxi region. If he could become a torturer or the head of the Arrest Department in the future, he would be much more useful.
But it was a pity that the Wei Clan would not live to see that day!
"Old Du, secretly order some of your trusted subordinates to investigate the movements of those people from the Ghost King Sect. Remember, just investigate their movements and not alert them. Once you find any traces of them, leave immediately and tell me their location," Chu Xiu said in a low voice.
Du Guangzhong nodded and did not ask any more questions.
He had followed Chu Xiu for some time, so he almost knew Chu Xiu's style of doing things. He only cared about the results, not the process.
Now that Chu Xiu had assigned the task to him, he only needed to complete the task Chu Xiu gave him. It would not be good for him to know too much about other things.
Just as Chu Xiu was about to take action, Swordking City had already taken action.
With Swordking City's strength, they did not take the local small forces in Jianzhou City seriously at all. They directly sent a disciple to inform them to immediately send people to seal the city and search the whole city.
This overbearing action caused an uproar among the martial arts forces in Jianzhou City. They did not dare to resist.
Therefore, one day after the city was sealed, the martial arts forces in Jianzhou City immediately joined forces and went to find Chu Xiu.
They could not afford to offend Swordking City, but they were in Guanzhong, which belonged to the Guanzhong torture room. They could not afford to offend the Guanzhong torture room, right?
Two days later, the representatives of the nine major forces in Jianzhou City gathered at the entrance of the Inspector Hall of Jianzhou City, waiting for Chu Xiu's arrival.
Although the martial arts forces in Jianzhou City had expressed that they would surrender to Chu Xiu, they were still reluctant to deal with Chu Xiu. Therefore, they would never come to the Inspector Hall of Jianzhou City if there was nothing important. This was the first time they were so orderly.
Several people sat in the meeting hall with anxious looks on their faces. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Chu Xiu slowly appeared and calmly took a sip of tea on the table.
The Luo family's Patriarch had a good relationship with Chu Xiu. They had cooperated a lot. Upon seeing this, the Luo family's Patriarch hurriedly said, "Official Chu, you still have the time to drink tea here? Those people from Swordking City are causing trouble in Jianzhou City. Aren't you going to do something about it?"
Chu Xiu put down his teacup and said faintly, "What do you want me to do? You've heard about Lord Wei Jiuduan's attitude. Even I, the Inspector, have to cooperate with him. How can I control those people? "
The Luo family's Patriarch sighed and said, "Then what should we do? With these people stirring up trouble, our business that has just started to pick up will be wasted."
The others also sighed. But at this time, Chu Xiu suddenly said, "I can't control them, but you can resist. If Swordking City wants you to seal the city, you can seal it. If they want you to search for people, you can search for them. You haven't been this happy even when I gave you an order. Do you really want to listen to Swordking City?"
The Luo family's Patriarch smiled bitterly and said, "But Swordking City is one of the Five Major Sword Sects. How can a small family like us offend them?"
Chu Xiu lightly said, "So what if they are the Five Major Sword Sects? Don't forget that this is Guanzhong, not Western Desert's Swordking City. Also, don't forget that Swordking City is a Righteous Sect. Although they are overbearing, they have a good reputation. If you don't listen to Swordking City's orders, would they dare to slaughter you? "
Everyone glanced at each other. They didn't know if Swordking City would do such a thing, but Official Chu Chu Xiu had done such a thing.
Didn't Divine Feather Sect and Blackcliff Hall get slaughtered because they didn't listen to your orders?
Moreover, Chu Xiu's actions seemed like a scam. It was as if he was a troublemaker.
Only a Righteous Sect like Swordking City could do such a thing. If they ran into someone from the Devil Dao or someone ruthless and unscrupulous like Chu Xiu, then this move would be no different from courting death.
Luo family's Patriarch cautiously said, "Official Chu, are you saying that we're going to resist Swordking City and not listen to their orders? But what if Swordking City really attacks us? "
Chu Xiu stood up and said coldly, "You're a martial arts faction of the Guanzhong region and a martial arts faction under the protection of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall. If the people of Swordking City really dare to attack you, do you think I'll just stand by and do nothing?
Lord Wei Jiuduan once said that although our Guanxi branch has to cooperate with Swordking City, it doesn't mean that Swordking City can act recklessly here.
Don't worry, if Swordking City really dares to attack you, they'll be provoking the dignity of Guanzhong torture room. At that time, this matter won't be something that Lord Wei Jiuduan can suppress. The headquarters will be alarmed. "
Seeing that Luo family's Patriarch and the others were still hesitating, Chu Xiu couldn't help but snort coldly and said, "In any case, I've already given you the idea. Whether you follow it or not is up to you. If Swordking City disrupts our business, I'll only lose 20%, but you'll lose everything! "
Luo family's Patriarch and the others glanced at each other. In the end, Luo family's Patriarch gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, we'll do as Official Chu says!"
In the past, Luo family's Patriarch had always been overly cautious. He didn't strive for first or second place and only focused on third or fourth place.
Since he was the first to rely on Chu Xiu and got some sweet benefits, he changed his way of thinking. The benefits of being the first to attack were equally great.
Chu Xiu looked at everyone present and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, please rest assured. I won't let Swordking City's people act recklessly here. If I can't even protect my own people, then I'm too useless as an Inspector."
The other forces cupped their hands and immediately left, preparing to act according to Chu Xiu's plan.
Luo family's Patriarch was the first to act. At this time, Luo family's Patriarch had gone to Jian Province to discuss some matters. Luo family's Patriarch was in charge of managing Luo family's affairs. At this time, he was cooperating with Swordking City's people to seal the city and search Luo City.
After Luo family's Patriarch returned, he directly said to Luo Shuangquan, "Tell Luo family to open the city gates and call back our clansmen!"
