Hearing that Su Xin was not satisfied with his nickname, Tie Wuqing shook his head and said, "You should be content. There are many people in Jianghu who have worse nicknames than you.
People in Jianghu don't get nicknames from themselves, they get them from their own achievements. At the very least, they need to be acknowledged by others.
Xie Zhiyan's original nickname was' Goddess', but after she killed Jiang Ling with the Supreme Nine Tribulations Sword, she became 'Nine Tribulations Yue Nu'.
There is a saying in Jianghu, there are only wrong names, but there are no wrong nicknames. If you want to change your nickname, you need to have a good achievement first. "
Su Xin shrugged his shoulders. So be it, at least he could still hear it.
At this moment, Tie Wuqing noticed that Su Xin's aura had changed. Within these three days, he had broken through to the Qi Hai Realm.
He couldn't help but smile and said, "I knew I was right about you. Strength can be accumulated over time."
Su Xin said, "I still have to thank you, Master Tie, for your Heaven Flushing Pill."
Pills were very helpful in breaking through to the next realm. If Su Xin didn't have that Heaven Flushing Pill, he would need to accumulate strength for a few more months before he dared to try breaking through to the Qi Hai Realm.
Tie Wuqing nodded with satisfaction and said, "Since you have broken through to the Qi Hai Realm, I have a mission for you. Now that you have reached the Qi Hai Realm, it will be easier for you to complete this mission."
Su Xin was surprised and said, "There's a mission so soon?"
"The Six Doors Organization has no lack of missions."
"What is the content of the mission?" Su Xin asked.
Since he had decided to be a dog of the imperial court, he had to have the awareness of being a dog of the imperial court. If there was a mission, he would accept it. As long as it wasn't a suicide mission, there was no need to be picky.
Tie Wuqing nodded in satisfaction. What he admired the most was Su Xin's ability to adapt to circumstances.
"Do you know about the Merchant Mountain City?" Tie Wuqing asked.
Su Xin nodded and said, "I have."
It could be said that everyone in Xiangnan knew about Shangshan City.
Merchant Mountain City was the largest city in Xiangnan. It was built on the border between Xiangnan and the Central Plains. Every day, countless merchants from the Central Plains would come here to trade Xiangnan specialties. It was the largest commercial city in Xiangnan.
Not every merchant in the Central Plains had the courage to invite a Xian Tian realm escort to escort them into the Chang Ning Prefecture and other prefectures in the hinterland of Southern Xiang to purchase the specialties of the Southern Barbarians. In fact, most of the merchants in the Central Plains conducted their transactions in the Merchant Mountain City.
Every year, Merchant Mountain City would send a large number of people to Chang Ning Prefecture and other prefectures to purchase some specialty products. The quantity was huge, and Su Xin had dealt with them before.
Tie Wuqing said, "The Merchant Mountain City that you know is only the number one city in Xiangnan or the city of commerce. But in fact, Merchant Mountain City is different from the other prefectures in Chang Ning Prefecture. It is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court."
"Not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court?" Su Xin was stunned.
All lands under the heavens belong to the King, and all those who live on the shores of the land belong to the King.
Now, even the major sects respected the Zhou Kingdom's imperial court. Although Merchant Mountain City was the number one city in Xiangnan, it shouldn't be this arrogant, right?
Tie Wuqing said, "It is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court because the existence of Merchant Mountain City is too special. Merchant Mountain City was not a city in the past. It was built by the current city lord of Merchant Mountain City, the Spirit Integration realm martial arts master, Yan Huangjiu, a few decades ago.
There are three realms of the Primordial Soul, Spirit Transformation, Spirit Integration, and Yang Spirit. A Spirit Integration realm martial arts master could already be the overlord of a region. In addition to Yan Huangjiu's methods and the unique location of Merchant Mountain City, the entire Merchant Mountain City became the number one city in Xiangnan in just a few decades.
Moreover, it would be fine if Merchant Mountain City was just a city of commerce. But Merchant Mountain City is also the gathering place for the rogue martial artists of Xiangnan.
Almost eighty percent of the rogue martial artists of Xiangnan who do not belong to any sect are gathered in Merchant Mountain City. It can be said that any random person in Merchant Mountain City is an early or middle stage Houtian martial artist. "
"Any random person is an early or middle stage Houtian martial artist? Doesn't this mean that the leaders of Chang Ning Manor are not even comparable to a small fry when they go to Merchant Mountain City? "Su Xin thought to himself.
"Then is there a problem in Merchant Mountain City now?" Su Xin asked.
Tie Wuqing nodded, "It can't be considered a problem, but there is a great danger of a problem.
Although Yan Huangjiu is an outstanding hero of his generation and is also a Spirit Integration realm martial arts master, it is a pity that he is old. According to our intelligence, Yan Huangjiu does not have long to live.
And Yan Huangjiu himself knows this, so a month ago, he let go of most of the power in his hands, hoping to choose one of his thirteen children to be his successor.
When Yan Huangjiu was in charge of Merchant Mountain City, he wandered between the sects of Jianghu and the imperial court. Merchant Mountain City was purely a city of commerce.
But now that Yan Huangjiu's lifespan is coming to an end, many of his children have the background of Xiangnan's major martial arts sects.
If it is their turn to be in charge of Merchant Mountain City, will they still be like Yan Huangjiu, remaining neutral and standing between the imperial court and the martial arts sects?
There are so many rogue martial artists in Merchant Mountain City, and with the martial arts sects adding fuel to the fire, it would be fine if they behave themselves, but if they start a rebellion, the consequences will be unimaginable! "
Su Xin frowned and asked, "The mission this time is to tamper with the successor of Merchant Mountain City?"
A cold light flashed in Tie Wuqing's eyes, "The best choice is to support someone close to the imperial court to be the city lord of Merchant Mountain City.
If this can't be done, then we definitely can't let those people close to Xiangnan's martial arts world become the city lord. If necessary, we can directly assassinate them! "
Su Xin nodded, "I understand. Is there a time limit for this mission?"
"Yan Huangjiu doesn't have long to live, at most a year's time, so the time limit for the mission is only that long. During this time, you can also avoid being hunted by the Black List in Chang Ning Manor."
"By the way, since my name is already on the Ranking List of Young Masters and the Black Ranking List, I reckon that the martial artists of Merchant Mountain City will soon know my physical characteristics. Wouldn't I be courting death by entering Merchant Mountain City?"
Tie Wuqing grinned and said, "I've already prepared an identity for you. But first, you need to find someone to make a human skin mask and wear it. There's an expert in making human skin masks in the headquarters of Six Fan School in Xiangnan Province. Come with me and ask him to tailor a mask for you according to the shape of your face."
At the mention of the human skin mask, Su Xin suddenly remembered that he seemed to have Wang Lianhua's human skin mask that he had obtained from the lottery.
"Wait, I think I have a human skin mask, there's no need to make another trip."
Su Xin put his hand into his pocket, but in reality, he took out a young human skin mask from the System Space and put it on.
With this mask on, Su Xin immediately turned from a delicate and pretty boy into a handsome young man in his twenties with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes.
Tie Wuqing looked at Su Xin in surprise, "This human skin mask of yours is quite good, even better than the expert in the headquarters of Xiangnan Path. Where did you get it?"
If he hadn't seen Su Xin put on the human skin mask with his own eyes, he would have really suspected that Su Xin was a different person.
"Sir Tie, do you remember that rapist when we first met? That guy was a master of disguise, and I found this human skin mask on him. "
Tie Wuqing slapped his head, obviously remembering that incident. That rapist's disguise skills were indeed very strong.
"That's great, you don't need to waste time, just go straight to Merchant Mountain City."
As Tie Wuqing spoke, he took out two booklets and handed them to Su Xin.
He pointed to one of the thin booklets and said, "This is the information of the new identity I've arranged for you. Don't be in a hurry to enter Merchant Mountain City, familiarize yourself with your new identity first.
The thick one is the detailed information of the first-rate, second-rate, and third-rate sects in the martial arts world compiled by Six Fan School. Basically, except for some unranked sects, there are records in this book, as well as some general knowledge in the martial arts world. There's no harm in understanding more.
Also, there are some ways to contact the secret agents of Six Fan School. If there's a need, you can use the method to contact them and get some information and support.
"I still have other things to deal with in Xiangnan, so I'll leave first. Remember, don't show off. If you feel that something is wrong, you can escape first. If you fail the mission, then so be it. The higher-ups will naturally send stronger people to deal with it."
Su Xin nodded in agreement and watched Tie Wuqing leave. However, he didn't take Tie Wuqing's last words seriously.
Although he could leave if he failed the mission, Tie Wuqing probably wouldn't speak to him so kindly at that time.
Tie Wuqing saved Su Xin because he appreciated and valued Su Xin's ability. He was the one who pulled Su Xin into Six Fan School, so when Su Xin rewarded him in the future, he would naturally get a share.
However, if he failed the mission, not only would Tie Wuqing lose face, he might also be attacked by other arresters.
After all, Tie Wuqing had said that the Tie family didn't have the final say in Six Fan School. He believed that many people would want to see him fail.
Therefore, as his first battle after entering Six Fan School, Su Xin never thought that he would fail. It wasn't for Tie Wuqing, but for himself to be able to stand firm in Six Fan School.
Su Xin only read the part about Xiangnan in the thick book about the martial arts forces and put it in the package. He would read the rest when he had time.
This book was very useful to Su Xin. In the past, Su Xin only cared about scheming against others in Changning Mansion. He didn't know much about the martial arts world of the Central Plains, and he didn't even know much about the local martial arts world of Xiangnan.
Now that he had this detailed book about Six Fan School, he could at least get a rough idea.
The rest was information about his new identity. Su Xin read it carefully and couldn't help but have a strange expression.
This time, Six Fan School really spent a lot of effort to create an identity for him. Although this identity was fake, its origin was really not simple.
