The Pugilistic World was very realistic and cruel. At least for Yan Qingxue and the others who came from the Xiangnan Pugilistic World, the cruelty of the Central Plains Pugilistic World was far beyond their imagination.
Sometimes, it wasn't Su Xin who wanted to be ruthless, but someone who forced him to be ruthless.
After dealing with Fang Xianlong, Su Xin said to Li Bo, "Gather all the Shadow Guard warriors and search for all the branches of the White Lotus Sect in Xiangnan. Kill them all!"
Since he had killed the Green Lotus Divine Ambassador, Su Xin didn't mind being ruthless.
Moreover, this operation was also a form of training for the Shadow Guard.
In the Pugilistic World, if the White Lotus Sect claimed to be second in terms of hiding skills, no one would dare to claim to be first.
If the Shadow Guard could dig out these rats, it would be a significant improvement for the Shadow Guard as a whole.
Yan Qingxue suddenly thought of something and said to Su Xin, "Brother Su, my godfather, Daoist Qian, was severely injured by the White Lotus Sect. Can you help me take a look at his injuries?"
Su Xin nodded and called for a disciple of the Zuo Dao Alliance to follow him.
This time, Su Xin was here to kill, so the Zuo Dao Alliance's' Merciless Hands' Sun Buhai didn't follow him.
However, although Sun Bu Hai did not follow, the one who followed was one of his disciples.
Although this person was only one of Sun Buhai's disciples, he already had 30% of Sun Buhai's knowledge. It wasn't a problem for him to deal with some ordinary injuries.
In Daoist Qian's house, although he was still conscious, his face was a little pale. Fortunately, he was in good spirits. Someone had already informed him of what happened outside. He also knew that the crisis in Merchant Mountain City had been resolved and that they had found a powerful backer.
Seeing Yan Qingxue, Su Xin, and the others walk in, Daoist Qian quickly stood up and cupped his hands. "Greetings, Lord Su."
Yan Qingxue walked over to help Daoist Qian up and rebuked, "Godfather, you're already injured to this extent, why aren't you lying on the bed?"
Daoist Qian shook his head and said, "Etiquette cannot be abolished."
Although Daoist Qian was a rogue cultivator, it was precisely because of this that he knew how to respect power.
Su Xin was an Earth Immortal of the Real Martial Arts Realm, an expert who stood at the top of the Jianghu. Even though he knew the relationship between Yan Qingxue and Su Xin, he would be courting death if he tried to take advantage of his seniority.
Since Daoist Qian was so well-behaved, Su Xin naturally wouldn't be careless. He directly used a stream of vital energy to help Daoist Qian up and said, "Daoist Qian, you don't have to be so polite. All these years, Merchant Mountain City has only grown to such a scale because of your protection."
With that, Su Xin directly let Sun Buhai's disciple diagnose Daoist Qian.
After Sun Buhai's disciple finished his examination, he said to Su Xin, "Sir, this Daoist's injury is not serious. It's just that the sword Qi has entered his body and injured his meridians.
I have pills personally refined by Master. He just needs to rest for a period of time and he will be fine. "
Su Xin nodded and said to Daoist Qian, "Daoist Qian, Qingxue has already decided to return to the northwest with me. I wonder what your plans are?
If Daoist Qian is willing to return to the northwest with me, then I am willing to treat you with the position of Minister of the northwest army. You will have all the cultivation techniques and resources you need. "
As for Daoist Qian, Su Xin really wanted to recruit him, and it wasn't all because of Yan Qingxue.
In the Jianghu, there were very few warriors who could advance to the Yang God Realm as rogue cultivators. For Daoist Qian to be able to reach this step, his perseverance was naturally needless to say.
In fact, to put it bluntly, what Daoist Qian lacked was a powerful inheritance. In other words, if Daoist Qian had all kinds of martial arts and secret techniques comparable to the White Lotus Sect, he would not have lost so miserably in the hands of Sacred Envoy Green Lotus.
And what Su Xin lacked the least now were all kinds of powerful martial arts inheritances.
Of course, the most important reason why Su Xin recruited Daoist Qian was because he liked Daoist Qian's character.
In the past, Daoist Qian had promised to protect Merchant Mountain City for a hundred years because of a promise made by Yan Huangjiu. In fact, he had indeed done this.
Later, Daoist Qian was moved by Yan Qingxue's actions and protected Merchant Mountain City without reservation.
Including this time when the White Lotus Sect had set their sights on Merchant Mountain City, Daoist Qian could have completely retreated and no one could say anything. But in the end, Daoist Qian still chose to protect Merchant Mountain City and almost paid with his life.
Not to mention other things, at least in terms of keeping promises, Daoist Qian was absolutely unbeatable.
Although Su Xin could not be considered a good person, he was very willing to use a person like Daoist Qian who kept his promises.
Now, among the Yang God realm warriors under Su Xin, he could naturally trust Li Bo. Leng Wumo was only so obedient because he was controlled by Su Xin. However, once he was given a chance to turn against Su Xin, Su Xin believed that he would be more ruthless than anyone else.
As for the other elders of the Northwestern Army, such as Cai Sanyuan and the others, their status is only that of an elder. They can fight in battles, but don't expect them to risk their lives for Su Xin.
Therefore, these people could not be considered as Su Xin's confidants. Similarly, Su Xin could not directly trust them.
If Daoist Qian joined Su Xin's subordinates, Su Xin could treat Daoist Qian as a confidant. After all, Daoist Qian's character had been verified in the incident in Shangshan City.
Moreover, Daoist Qian was Yan Qingxue's adoptive father. With this relationship, Su Xin could naturally trust him completely.
After hearing Su Xin's words, Daoist Qian did not even think about it and directly cupped his hands and said, "Since the Lord Su has taken a liking to me, I will not be unreasonable. I only hope that the Lord Su will not let Qingxue down in the end."
In fact, with Daoist Qian's strength, it was very easy for him to join other sects and aristocratic families as a guest or a guest.
However, Daoist Qian had a strange temper. No matter how many benefits he offered to those he disliked, Daoist Qian could not be bothered to serve them.
Therefore, Daoist Qian had always been alone in the martial world. Moreover, he did not have much ambition and did not want to fight for fame and fortune.
All along, Daoist Qian had only wanted to go one step further on the martial way.
Unfortunately, what Daoist Qian lacked now was a powerful inheritance. Those martial arts sects could not satisfy him either. After all, everyone knew the preciousness of martial arts methods. Even if Daoist Qian became the guest of the other party, he would still be an outsider. The other party would definitely not hand over such a precious thing to him.
Now that Su Xin had opened his mouth to recruit him, Daoist Qian did not resist much because of Yan Qingxue. Moreover, Su Xin also promised to give him a martial arts inheritance. This made Daoist Qian even more happy. After all, Su Xin was famous in the martial world for his complicated but powerful martial way.
Of course, the most important thing was that Daoist Qian found Su Xin pleasing to the eye. Su Xin's personality also matched his temperament. Otherwise, even if Su Xin was a True Martial Realm expert, he would choose to leave. Anyway, Yan Qingxue was taken care of by a True Martial Realm expert, so he could rest assured.
Daoist Qian had been in the martial world for so many years. Although he had not done anything bad, Daoist Qian had never thought of himself as a good person. On the contrary, some hypocrites in the name of righteous sects made him even more disgusted.
Although Su Xin did not have a good reputation in the martial world, Daoist Qian admired Su Xin's decisive personality. At least, Su Xin had never concealed his ambition. He was much better than those hypocrites.
However, in the end, Daoist Qian could not help but say something. He hoped that Su Xin would not let Yan Qingxue down.
Daoist Qian had been in the martial world for so many years. He had seen a lot of things, so he also had this worry. For some powerful martial artists, women were just playthings, unless the two parties were equal in strength or status.
Su Xin was an Earth Immortal in the True Martial Realm. He was the ruler of the northwest region. Compared to him, Yan Qingxue was still too insignificant.
Although he knew that if he said anything more, he might be hated by Su Xin, but he still said it.
Su Xin smiled and said, "Daoist Qian, you worry too much. If I didn't care about Qingxue, I wouldn't have come to Merchant Mountain City."
Hearing Su Xin say this, Daoist Qian was finally relieved.
With Su Xin's current strength, if he really didn't care about Yan Qingxue and was purely trying to repay the karma of Su Xin in the past, then Su Xin only needed to send his subordinate, the Chief of the Shadow Guard, Li Bo.
After all, according to the strength that Li Bo showed today, not to mention one Green Lotus Holy Ambassador, even three would not be enough.
However, now that Su Xin came in person, it was enough to prove the importance that Su Xin attached to Yan Qingxue.
After settling Daoist Qian down, Su Xin stayed in Merchant Mountain City and waited for news from Li Bo and the Shadow Guard.
At this time, in the headquarters of the White Lotus Sect, Bai Ling rushed back to report to Our Lady Of The Lotus about the Green Lotus Holy Ambassador.
Everyone in the Pugilistic World knew that the White Lotus Sect's hiding place was extremely secretive. No one knew where the White Lotus Sect was located.
In fact, this was indeed the case. The White Lotus Sect did not have a fixed location because the White Lotus Sect only existed in a separate space, just like the Celestial Court and the Hades.
Therefore, all these years, whether it was the State of Jin in the past or the current Zhou Kingdom, they all wanted to completely destroy the White Lotus Sect, but they had no way to do so.
There was more than one entrance to the headquarters of the White Lotus Sect. A cunning rabbit has three burrows. Over the years, the White Lotus Sect had set up many entrances all over the Central Plains. The one that Bai Ling chose was the one that was closer to Xiangxi.
She opened the door with the secret order of the White Lotus Sect. As soon as she stepped into the White Lotus Sect, Bai Ling suddenly felt the space in front of her suddenly brighten.
The entire headquarters of the White Lotus Sect had countless halls of all kinds of strange shapes. It looked like a temple, but also like a Taoist temple. The surroundings were decorated with strange gems that emitted white light, making the entire small world seem like a pure land of eternal light.
There were also waves of chanting in the surrounding halls. It was neither Buddhist scriptures nor Taoist scriptures, but it gave people an unusually peaceful feeling. At a glance, no one would think that this was the headquarters of an evil sect. Instead, it was like a real paradise.
