The Sword Feather Armor that Ox-Head took out was exactly what Su Xin wanted. It was simple and low-key, but at the same time, it had a good defense.
As for its shortcomings, it was normal. After all, the Sword Feather Armor was used as the lining of a whole set of armor. If an attack could penetrate the armor and hit him, one could imagine how strong the attack would be. At that time, it would be useless no matter how tough the Sword Feather Armor was.
Su Xin was very satisfied with this thing in all aspects, so he nodded and said, "No problem, it's him."
Su Xin readily agreed, which made Ox-Head a little embarrassed.
Since ancient times, some defensive treasured armors were very rare. At least, they were much rarer than weapons of the same level, so they were a little expensive.
However, the various characteristics of this treasured armor were at most equivalent to the level of an Earth Level weapon. After the Heavenly Soldier wreckage that Su Xin gave him was repaired, it was far more powerful than an ordinary Heavenly Soldier. Even if he had to pay a price to repair it, Ox-Head would still get a big bargain.
Moreover, Ox-Head did not like this kind of close-fitting treasured armor, so this Sword Feather Armor was equivalent to a piece of trash in his hands.
Using a piece of trash to exchange for a treasure, Ox-Head felt a little embarrassed no matter how he thought about it.
As for Su Xin's request for him to help deal with Jiang Helu, it was not worth mentioning in Ox-Head's opinion.
Jiang Helu was only in the Deity Transformation Realm. Even if Su Xin did not use anything to ask him for an exchange, with his identity as a fellow Hades, as long as Su Xin asked, he would also help. It would be a meeting gift for a new fellow.
Therefore, Ox-Head was very embarrassed as he cupped his hands towards Su Xin and said, "King Chujiang, my brother Horse-Face and I will accept this favor. If there is anything you need in the future, just say the word."
Su Xin smiled and cupped his hands, "It's just an equivalent exchange, you don't have to be so polite."
Now, Su Xin finally felt the benefits of Hades.
If he was in the outside world, he wouldn't have the qualifications to talk to a Harmonious Spirit Realm expert like this. Moreover, the other party wouldn't say that he owed him a favor.
After the two sides completed the transaction, when Ox-head carefully put away his treasures, he asked Su Xin, "By the way, when are you going to attack Jiang Helu? Are we going now? "
A cold light flashed in Su Xin's eyes as he said, "There's no rush. The timing isn't right. I still have to wait for some time."
The current situation in Jiangnan was indeed chaotic, but it wasn't the time for chaos yet. He should add more fuel to the fire.
If he didn't wait until the worst moment to turn the tide, how could he show his importance?
Ox-Head nodded indifferently and said, "That's good. Anyway, I'm preparing to cultivate in the Hades during this period of time. Just let me know when you're going to take action."
After saying that, Ox-head returned to his palace to cultivate. Magistrate Cui and the others also left. As for Su Xin, he returned to Jiangnan, ready to add more fuel to the current situation in Jiangnan.
Now, Su Xin already knew that Yin Ji had colluded with the remnants of Wu Country for some reason. Now, Jiang Helu and Yue Qingping were disguised in Six Fan School.
It was very easy to get rid of them. With the power that Su Xin had now, he could let Ox-head kill Jiang Helu in secret. Then, he would reveal Yin Ji's true colors and take back the position of chief constable of Jiangnan.
However, for Su Xin, who liked to pursue the maximum benefits, this seemed to be a little insufficient.
This matter was originally caused by Liu Fengwu's intention to send people to pick the peaches. If Su Xin didn't teach them a profound lesson, it was hard to guarantee that no one would come to pick the peaches again. After all, Liu Fengwu was not the only one among the Four Great Super Arresters.
He wanted to let those people in the headquarters of Six Fan School know that Jiangnan could not do without him, Su Xin. Only he, Su Xin, was qualified to suppress Jiangnan. If others acted recklessly, they would only destroy Jiangnan.
After returning to Jiangnan, Su Xin hid in the dark and observed, ready to find an opportunity to add more fuel to the fire at any time.
Now, the entire martial arts world of Jiangnan, whether it was Six Fan School or other martial arts sects, were jittery because of Yin Ji. It was very easy to find an opportunity to add more fuel to the fire.
After waiting for less than ten days, Su Xin found an opportunity.
Whether it was the headquarters of Six Fan School or the Six Fan School of Jiangnan, they all hated the formality of the tax that Yin Ji had people come up with.
However, this had to do with Yin Ji's pride after all. He had already collected a month's worth of taxes. If he directly gave up on the second month, would he not be slapping himself in the face?
Without a doubt, that would be even more humiliating, so all Yin Ji could do was send his subordinates to the various sects to collect the so-called "taxes" the next month.
Although the constables below him gritted their teeth in hatred, there was nothing they could do. They could only become "beggars" again, going to those sects to beg for food.
At this moment, in the Qingyang prefecture, the chief of detectives of the Qingyang prefecture, Zhang Ze, could only send people to carry out Yin Ji's orders helplessly.
Actually, Zhang Ze was also on Su Xin's side. Back then, when Su Xin was assassinated in the Qingyang prefecture, Zhang Ze had thought Su Xin would definitely blame him. However, he never thought Su Xin would not even say a word.
Moreover, Su Xin had asked him to take back a piece of land for the Fei family under his identity as a member of the Six Fan School. He also promised him a share of the pills refined from the herbs produced on the land.
He knew the pills did not interest Su Xin, but he was not exactly Su Xin's trusted aide back then. In the end, Su Xin gave him a share of the pills as soon as he opened his mouth, which touched Zhang Ze very much.
However, although he supported Su Xin, he was helpless against the current situation. Su Xin's fate was unknown.
And, in the eyes of the headquarters of the Six Fan School, he was already dead. Yin Ji had taken over all the authority. Even Huang Bingcheng and the other trusted aides of Su Xin in the past had to stand aside, so there was even less he could do. He could only go with the flow.
After the mission was handed down, Zhang Ze called over all the officers under him. He coughed and said, "It's time to collect taxes from those sects of the martial arts society again. How about this? Let's make it fair. Let's draw lots. Every sect will send two people. There are nine second-rate and third-rate organisations around our Qingyang prefecture, so that's eighteen people. Let's begin."
Zhang Ze got someone to carry out a box for drawing lots. Immediately, the expressions of the officers under him became as ugly as if their entire family had died.
They had not forgotten how they had been treated by the sects when they went to collect taxes last month. It was basically like they were chasing away beggars.
If this had happened in the Six Fan School during Jin Wulin's reign, then so be it. Everyone had grown used to it.
However, in the past half a year, Su Xin had been in charge of the Six Fan School, revitalising their reputation and making everyone proud. In the end, they had to act like they were beggars again. Who would be happy about that? It was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it was difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
However, they also knew that this was an order from above that could not be disobeyed, so they could only force themselves to draw lots. When the eighteen unlucky people stood out, the people who had not drawn lots immediately felt relieved. At least they did not have to embarrass themselves anymore.
However, it could not be said that all eighteen people were unlucky. At the very least, the people who had drawn lots to collect taxes from the Fei family could still benefit from it.
In the eyes of these officers, although the Fei family were descendants of the Hu people, they were really particular.
In the past, Su Xin had helped them obtain the piece of land from the Qingping sect, so they had always been on good terms with the Six Fan school of the Qingyang prefecture.
Afterwards, although the news of Su Xin's death had arrived and the Six Fan school of the Jiangnan district had done so many embarrassing things, the Fei family's attitude remained the same. They were still so polite.
When they went to collect taxes from the various large sects last time, they were basically treated coldly. In the end, they were like beggars, casually tossing out a stalk of herbs or pills.
Only the officers who went to the Fei family were treated differently.
When they arrived at the Fei family with some trepidation, what they received was the Fei family's meticulous hospitality. Even the two Deity Transformation leaders of the Fei family stood forward and said a few words to them. Only after arranging a banquet did they let them leave.
And, when they left, they were even afraid that the two officers would feel awkward, so they directly gave them a large bag of cultivation resources as a gift.
These cultivation resources were equivalent to three months' worth of salary for completing missions arduously, yet they ended up receiving all of it from a single trip to the Fei family.
As for giving an explanation to the higher-ups, that was even easier. They just had to scrape out some of the cultivation resources and hand it over to the higher-ups.
As a result, everyone else was extremely envious of the two officers who had been chosen to go to the Fei family. They were not going to be treated with disdain. Instead, they were going to be treated as esteemed guests.
However, compared to the two officers who had been chosen to go to the Fei family, the two officers who had been chosen to go to the Qingping sect, Yao An and Pang Qian, felt like they were extremely unlucky. This was because their Six Fan school of the Qingping sect had grievances with the Qingping sect.
Last time, Su Xin had ordered their Six Fan school of the Qingping sect to hand over a piece of land to the Fei family in the name of the headquarters of the Six Fan school of the Jiangnan district. Although the Qingping sect had handed it over due to the influence of the Six Fan school of the Jiangnan district, they still felt extremely indignant about it.
Back then, when they learnt about the importance of the piece of land to the Fei family, they were just about to rip the Fei family off. However, they never thought the Six Fan school of the Jiangnan district would forcefully get in their way.
However, they never thought retribution would arrive so quickly. With the news of Su Xin's death, and the Six Fan school of the Jiangnan district in a mess because of Yin Ji, their Qingping sect no longer feared the Six Fan school anymore.
As a result, when the people of the Six Fan school came to collect taxes from their Qingping sect last time, they had humiliated them quite a bit, which was why they had tossed them a pill and sent them away like they were beggars.
When this matter reached the Six Fan school of the Qingyang district, the officers of the Six Fan school were furious, but they were powerless to do anything.
When Su Xin led them, the Six Fan school of the Jiangnan district was a pack of hungry wolves, their fangs and claws terrifying.
However, now that Yin Ji was leading them, these people had to retract their claws and teeth sullenly. The Six Fan school of the Qingyang district was extremely unwilling to accept this, but all they could do was endure it.
This time, Yao An and Pang Qian went to the Qingping sect. They were utterly depressed. As a matter of fact, Yao An was even prepared to be humiliated. However, Pang Qian was rather unwilling to accept this.
