After leaving the Cold Moon Hall, Tyluci and the other three thanked Su Xin. However, Su Xin only told them not to do such stupid things in the future. He also asked them to send a message to White Impermanence to prove that he had been there and that they were no longer in danger.
Su Xin was not very optimistic about these four people. It was the hardest for Itinerant Cultivators to survive in the Jianghu. Therefore, one's character and willpower were indispensable.
The four of them might be able to rely on each other for life and death, but they were too sentimental to the point where they did things without thinking. As long as one of them was in trouble, the others would be implicated sooner or later.
Therefore, Su Xin doubted whether they could live to break through to the Primordial Soul Realm.
However, this had nothing to do with Su Xin. Anyway, these people were not the outer members that he had developed. In the future, White Impermanence would be the one to suffer the headaches.
Right now, Su Xin needed to find a place to recover the Vital Qi in his body.
In the Orchid Hall just now, he had used up half of the Vital Qi in his body to create the aura of an Primordial Soul Realm warrior to maintain that hell-like scene.
Fortunately, the effect was pretty good. Almost no one doubted Su Xin's strength.
Moreover, Su Xin had asked Tyluci and the others to find someone to inform him about the Heaven-ranked Remains of Heavenly Soldiers.
If he wanted to put on an act, he had to go all the way. No matter what, he had to act more realistically.
Chen Xian had been rude just now. If Liu Xiao had not been there, Su Xin would not have been able to find a way out. If he had let Chen Xian go, the other party would have doubts.
Moreover, Liu Xiao knew about the existence of the Heaven and Earth Palace. This was even better. This identity coming from Liu Xiao was much more credible than him saying it himself.
After recovering his Inner Strength, Su Xin was not in a hurry to return to the Hades to hand over the mission. Instead, he planned to go back to Jiangnan to take a look.
Although Magistrate Cui had already told Su Xin about the situation in Jiangnan, Su Xin still wanted to take a look and then decide when he should return to Jiangnan.
This time, Su Xin had to capture Yin Ji, Jiang Helu, and the others in one fell swoop!
As Su Xin thought of this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
On the way back to the Jiangnan Prefecture, Su Xin did not use the identity of King Chujiang. Of course, he would not use his own identity either. Instead, he once again disguised himself as the middle-aged man with the demeanor of an immortal when he went to scheme against the Wen Clan.
Su Xin had only used this identity once, and that was in Jiangnan.
Although most people knew that Su Xin had schemed against the Wen family and forced them to form an alliance, they did not know the specifics. In the entire Wen family, only Wen Mingyu and his son knew that this identity was Su Xin's disguise, so Su Xin was not worried about being recognized along the way.
After leaving the High Sun Mansion, Su Xin immediately used his inner force to hurry on with his journey. In less than half a day, he arrived at another prefecture, Jiangning Mansion.
Originally, Su Xin only planned to have a meal in Jiangning Mansion before leaving. However, he heard a very interesting piece of news while he was eating.
Most of the martial arts forces in Jiangning Mansion were aristocratic families, and there were only a few sects.
Jiangning Mansion was considered a big mansion in the entire River East, so there were as many as five second-rate forces in the mansion.
Among the five second-rate forces, the Du family and the Zhang family had a feud, but the Du family had always been the weaker side. However, the Du family was about to rise during this period of time.
The two second-rate forces, the Du family and the Zhang family, had a common characteristic. They did not have any Essence Soul Realm martial artists, but there were eight or nine Divinity Realm martial artists in the family. Among them, there were as many as 12 Divinity Realm martial artists in the Zhang family.
Recently, the master of the Du family had an epiphany and entered the Oneness of Heaven and Man Realm. He had become a half-step Essence Soul Realm martial artist, which frightened the Zhang family.
Any Divinity Realm martial artist who entered the Oneness of Heaven and Man Realm would almost certainly be able to break through to the Essence Soul Realm in the future. It was just a matter of time, which could be a few months, a year, or even several years.
If the master of the Du family suddenly broke through to the Essence Soul Realm, it would be a disaster for them.
Also, recently, the illegitimate son of the Du family, Du Chen, had suddenly shown his prowess. His strength had increased by leaps and bounds, and with his Qi Hai cultivation, he had consecutively defeated a few Spirit Aperture realm disciples of the Zhang family. His usage of the broken blade had reached the acme of perfection, causing the patriarchs and elders of the two families to be in awe.
It turned out that Du Chen was just an illegitimate son of the Du family. His talent was mediocre, and he barely broke through to the Qi Hai Realm at the age of 20. He was not valued by the Du family at all.
However, after he showed his prowess, Du Chen was even listed as one of the successors of the Du family. This made the martial artists of Jiangning Mansion say that the Du family was too realistic.
What attracted Su Xin's attention was not that the master of the Du family had stepped into the half-step Essence Soul Realm, but that Du Chen had suddenly improved tremendously. He was able to defeat several Spirit Aperture Realm martial artists with his Qi Hai cultivation level.
It was not a big deal for a Qi Hai Realm martial artist to defeat a Spirit Aperture Realm martial artist. Many martial artists on the Human Leaderboard could do that.
However, the problem was that Du Chen's rise was a little too sudden. It was as if his cultivation level had improved tremendously overnight. If there was nothing unusual about it, Su Xin would not believe it.
If Du Chen had been enduring all this while, it would be even more unreasonable.
Looking at the behavior of the Du family, it was clear that they were an unusually realistic family. As long as you showed your strength, you would naturally have the corresponding status.
Could it be that Du Chen had nothing better to do in the past, and his own resources could not be tilted to him by the family? It was only now that he made a name for himself. Was he a masochist or a lover of face-slapping?
After hearing this news, the first thing that came to Su Xin's mind was naturally the remains of the Heavenly Soldier that had evolved into a Demon Spirit.
Su Xin had once asked Telusi what the remains of the Heavenly Soldier looked like. Telusi had said that the remains of the Heavenly Soldier were just ordinary broken sabers. So when he heard that Du Chen had suddenly used the broken sabers to show his prowess, Su Xin had no reason not to suspect this.
Therefore, Su Xin decided not to return to Jiangnan Mansion for the time being. If the broken sabers in Du Chen's hands were really the remains of the Heavenly Soldier, then Su Xin had to get his hands on them.
Although the remains of the Heavenly Soldier were the sabers, Su Xin could trade it with others in exchange for something that he could use.
The greatest advantage of the members of the Hades was that they could exchange what they needed. A group of Essence Soul cultivators could exchange what they needed within the Hades without any scruples, and they did not have to worry about betrayal or anything like that.
After nightfall, Su Xin initially wanted to sneak up to Du Chen to see what was going on. However, he did not expect that there would be three Divinity Level martial artists protecting Du Chen at all times ever since he had shown his strength the last time.
However, it was normal when he thought about it. Now that the Du family and the Zhang family were at loggerheads, the Du family was worried that the Zhang family would suddenly assassinate the rising young disciple of the Du family, so they had specially sent someone to protect him.
However, that would be troublesome.
Su Xin did not take the three Divinity Level martial artists from second-rated forces seriously, but the problem was that as long as he made a move, the entire Du family would be alerted.
The three Divinity Level martial artists were not pigs, dogs, cows, or sheep. They could be killed by Su Xin in an instant.
If he were to break into the Du family by force, with Su Xin's current strength, he was 70% sure that he could completely wipe out the entire family. In fact, if he were to use consumables, his confidence would increase to 100%.
However, if he were to do so, it would cause too much of a commotion, and it would definitely attract the attention of other forces in the Jiangning Prefecture.
The Zhang family, who had been keeping an eye on the Du family, would definitely come, and the other forces that were close to the Du family would also come. When that time came, it would be extremely difficult for Su Xin to kill Du Chen and take the broken sword under the watchful eyes of the public. Therefore, he needed to think about it carefully.
Meanwhile, at the Du family's residence, Du Chen was staying in the house that the Du family had specially arranged for him. There were three Divinity Level martial artists guarding the door, which made him feel extremely at ease.
His mother was just an ordinary servant girl who gave birth to him after a drunken night with the master of the Du family.
His identity was not valued by the family, and coupled with his mediocre talent, he was even more despised and ridiculed by the people in the Du family.
Some people said that talent was something that one was born with. Although it was a little biased, it was true.
The more powerful a martial artist was, the more difficult it was to give birth to a child, and the more talented the child would be.
Moreover, if both parents were martial artists, the probability of having a child would undoubtedly be higher. Therefore, among the martial artists who cultivated independently, there were only a few who had outstanding talent. Most of the martial artists could only be said to be mediocre.
Du Chen's mother was an ordinary person, so it was no surprise that his talent was also ordinary. Half a year ago, he had barely broken through to the Innate Stage.
However, his father made an exception and gave him an elixir to help him break through to the Innate Qi Hai Realm, seeing that his other brothers had already broken through to the Innate Qi Hai Realm a few years ago, while he was still stuck in the Postnatal Realm.
Otherwise, with his status in the Du family, he would not have had the chance to get such a precious pill.
Du Chen had had enough of this kind of life of being looked down upon for more than 20 years, but just when he was about to be unable to bear it, God gave him a great opportunity.
Du Chen gently stroked the seemingly ordinary broken sword in his hand. There were even spots of rust on it.
Without it, he might have been ordinary for the rest of his life.
Du Chen could not forget the power that this broken blade had given him, and it would also teach him saber techniques in his dreams. It was so strong that compared to their Du Clan's martial techniques, their Du Clan's martial techniques were simply trash saber techniques.
Du Chen would never forget the look in the eyes of the Du family when he single-handedly defeated the strongest of the younger generation of the Zhang family.
The eyes of the disciples of the same generation who usually bullied him were filled with disbelief and astonishment.
Some of the younger disciples were envious and in awe, while his father and the others were happy. They were happy that the Du family had really risen this time. Besides him, who was about to break through to the Primordial Soul Realm, Du Chen was also amazing.
Feeling the joy coming from the broken sword, Du Chen clenched the hilt of the sword and shouted silently, "In the future, I, Du Chen, will definitely make you famous in the world. I will be on the Ranking List of Young Masters and trample on all the martial arts elites!"
