Seeing that the broken blade still dared to resist, Su Xin's five fingers shot out Sword Qi. The invisible Sword Qi immediately shattered the blade aura, causing the broken blade to let out a mournful cry.
Su Xin stretched out his hand to snatch the broken saber, but he found that Du Chen's hand was tightly gripping the broken saber. Du Chen's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Su Xin.
Su Xin shook his head and said, "Why bother? Forget it, I'll send you to meet the people of the Du family. "
The Blood River Divine Finger shot out, and a line of blood directly penetrated Du Chen's head, causing his hand to become powerless. The broken blade was seized by Su Xin.
An angry emotion came from the broken blade, and the blade's gray light soared. However, Su Xin coldly snorted, and the ice-blue True Qi in his hand erupted. In the blink of an eye, the broken blade was completely frozen, and Su Xin threw it into his mustard seed bag.
Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Su Xin was already used to it. Or it could be said that he had been accompanied by killing all along the way. The only difference was how many he killed.
Since ancient times, the Jianghu had been like this. In any case, in Su Xin's view, there was no such thing as good or evil, there was only benefit.
Even the merciful Shaolin Temple might not necessarily have less blood on their hands than those devil path people. The only difference was that the blood on their hands was mostly from those devil path people.
If the Du family wanted to blame someone, they could only blame themselves for taking something that they shouldn't have taken, and not having the strength to protect it.
Sooner or later, they would have to pay for it. Su Xin agreed with this point.
Today, he was able to scheme against two second-rate forces for the wreckage of a Heavenly Soldier. In the future, there might be something on his body that would attract the attention of other experts and forces to come and snatch it.
Therefore, Su Xin felt that his strength was not enough. He wanted to become stronger, strong enough that everyone would tremble when they heard his name, strong enough that no one would dare to have any ideas about him!
In the darkness of the night, Su Xin concealed himself and walked out of the gate of the Zhang family.
At this time, Jiangning Prefecture was still unclear about the Zhang family's situation. They didn't want to get involved, so they were observing from afar. They would know the results tomorrow morning.
However, when the next morning arrived, everyone discovered that the courtyard of the Zhang family was still as quiet as before. It was deathly silent, and not a single sound could be heard.
The people from the other forces couldn't help but look at each other in dismay. What was going on?
If the Du Family had won this battle, they would have started to plunder the Zhang Family's collection and resources on a large scale.
On the other hand, if the Zhang Clan had won, they should have directly set out and cut the Gordian knot. They should have directly gone to the Du Clan and completely annihilated the remaining old, weak, women, and children of the Du Clan and completely annexed the Du Clan.
In any case, no matter which side won, it shouldn't be this quiet.
After a while, three warriors in the Divine Transformation Realm arrived at the gate of the Zhang family. They were the leaders of the three largest second-rate forces in Jiangning Prefecture.
After these three people arrived, they suddenly frowned.
The perception of the Primordial Soul Realm was different from that of the Innate Realm. In his perception, there was not a trace of life in the Zhang family's residence; it was completely dead.
A warrior in the Divine Transformation Realm ordered, "Open the door."
Several warriors walked over and opened the door. Suddenly, a strong blood qi rushed out, causing the faces of the two people to suddenly turn pale. One of the warriors, who was only in the Acquired Realm, even vomited on the spot.
When everyone walked into the Zhang family's residence, almost everyone's face turned pale.
Everything in front of them was like Asura hell. The entire courtyard was full of corpses, some of which were even stacked on top of each other. Whether it was the people of the Zhang family or the Du family, they had all died here!
The three warriors in the Divine Transformation Realm looked at each other. They were also a little confused about the situation.
If the two families had died together, this was a battle of thousands of people. Had anyone ever seen both sides die without a single survivor?
Although they knew that something was wrong, they had nothing to do with the Du family and the Zhang family. Naturally, they were too lazy to investigate everything.
After they sent people to bury the corpses, they directly announced to the public that the Zhang family had used the evil formation, the Blood Demon Sword Formation, which caused the problem. In the end, both sides died together. They also advised everyone not to go down the evil path and so on.
As for whether or not there was a white-clothed Taoist among the corpses, who cared about that? They were all discussing how to divide the resources and territories left behind by the Du family and the Zhang family.
At this time, Su Xin was already on his way to Jiangnan Road.
He had already taken the Shaolin Temple Recover Pill that the Du family had given to Su Xin as a reward.
The main function of the Shaolin Temple Recover Pill was to improve one's inner strength cultivation. In fact, Su Xin could only take it after he advanced to the Divine Transformation Realm. After all, he was now at the peak of the Divinity Realm.
This was equivalent to his body being a water bottle. Now that the water was full, even if he poured more water into it, it would not be able to hold much. Some of the water would definitely overflow.
It was better to wait until he reached the Divine Transformation Realm and turn his body into a bucket before taking the Recover Pill.
However, Su Xin had not yet touched the edge of the Divine Transformation Realm. It was still unknown when he would break through to the Divine Transformation Realm. Therefore, it was better to take it now. The effect would be immediate.
Normally, it would take a year to carefully refine the medicinal power of the Recover Pill in order to bring out the full effect of the Recover Pill.
Now, however, Su Xin did not have to worry so much. It only took him a few days to roughly refine the medicinal power of the Recover Pill.
Although at least 30% of the medicinal power was wasted in this way, the remaining 70% was completely absorbed by Su Xin.
Su Xin's inner force was already very strong to begin with. With the addition of the Huandan's amazing medicinal effect, Su Xin's vital Qi had reached a terrifying level. Even when facing ordinary martial artists of the same level, he did not even need to use martial arts techniques. He could just use his strength to suppress them.
It took nearly 10 days for Su Xin to rush back to Jiangnan Road. As soon as he arrived, he felt that the entire Jiangnan Road was in a state of panic. Many martial artists felt that they were in danger.
Su Xin stayed in the restaurant for a while. He pretended to be an outsider and casually asked around. He then learned why Jiangnan Road was like this now. It was all because of Yin Ji.
After understanding the situation, Su Xin was also stunned. He did not know how to describe Yin Ji. He could not say that Yin Ji was stupid. He could only say that he was a little too eager for quick success and was too arrogant.
Not long ago, Yin Ji issued a new rule that all the sects in Jiangnan Road had to pay taxes to the imperial court. Moreover, they had to pay with cultivation resources.
As soon as this rule was announced, all the sects were instantly enraged.
Sects like the Nian Gang that controlled the water transportation were still fine. After all, they were also earning money from the imperial court of the Zhou Kingdom.
On the other hand, some Taoist temples that cultivated in peace in the deep mountains and forests also had to pay taxes. Why? Since the establishment of the Zhou Kingdom, there had never been such a rule.
In the past, when the State of Jin was at its peak, it did so. What was the result? Now, it was almost destroyed and became the East Jin Kingdom, which was struggling at death's door.
Therefore, when this rule was announced, the entire Jiangnan Road was against it. There was a lot of criticism everywhere.
However, this was something that Yin Ji had to do, and the reason was also related to Su Xin.
Su Xin's achievements in Jiangnan Road were obvious to all. He had strengthened the power of Six Fan School of Jiangnan Road and restored the prestige of Jiangnan Road. Even if the higher-ups of Six Fan School, such as Liu Fengwu, did not admit it, everyone else had seen it.
Now that Yin Ji was the chief of detectives of Jiangnan Road, the safest way was to not ask for merit but to not make mistakes. He just needed to stabilize the entire Six Fan School of Jiangnan Road.
Since Su Xin's rule was set, the sects in Jiangnan Road would not be so free to expel the constables of Six Fan School who were responsible for the supervision outside their sects.
However, Yin Ji did not want to do that. He did not want to be inferior to Su Xin, so he had to make some achievements.
Therefore, he planned to collect taxes from all the martial arts forces in the entire Jiangnan Road for this purpose.
As long as his plan succeeded, Six Fan School would be the only one in the entire Zhou Kingdom, let alone in Jiangnan Road. It could be said that the entire Six Fan School would be prestigious together with him. Therefore, the credit would certainly surpass that of Su Xin.
However, Yin Ji did not expect that the resistance of the entire martial arts world in Jiangnan Road would be so fierce. This also made Yin Ji curse in his heart. When Su Xin slaughtered the five sects in Jiangnan Road, they did not even resist so fiercely.
However, they did not know that Su Xin had indeed slaughtered the five sects, but there were preconditions for that.
One was that every time Su Xin destroyed a force, he would find another force to cooperate with. Naturally, the discussion would not be as fierce as before.
The second reason was that even if Su Xin slaughtered the five forces, it had nothing to do with them. Anyway, they were not the ones who were destroyed.
Most people were selfish. Anyway, it was not their turn to do it. Why should they go up and fight with Su Xin to death?
At most, these people felt sorry for the loss of their own kind. However, as Su Xin stopped, they did not even feel sorry for the loss of their own kind.
However, what Yin Ji was doing now was different from what Su Xin had done in the past. Yin Ji was simply robbing them of their own benefits. It was like cutting flesh with a blunt knife. Once a month, he had to do it. This was unbearable.
Therefore, many martial arts forces directly joined forces to protest.
Yin Ji also wanted to learn from Su Xin and slaughter a few martial arts sects to show them, but he almost made a fool of himself in the end.
Under the management of Su Xin, the forces in Jiangnan Road were indeed not bad. At least it was very easy to destroy a second-rate sect.
Now, although the elite constables of Six Fan School were still in the hands of Huang Bingcheng and the others, most of the state chief constables had already compromised under Yin Ji's pressure. Although they were angry, they could only obey his orders.
Just by relying on these constables and constables, a few hundred Xiantian Realm martial artists would be enough to wipe out a second-rate force with their sheer numbers.
