After Su Xin announced the appointment of the deputy chief of detectives, not only did he make the chief of detectives very excited, but he also made the chief of detectives in other prefectures see hope.
There was no specific requirement for the number of deputy chief of detectives in Six Fan School.
Generally speaking, there were at least two, and most of them were between four to five.
It was normal for a place like Jiangnan Circuit to have seven or eight deputy chief of detectives.
Su Xin appointed four deputy chief of detectives in one go, which showed them the generous side of Su Xin.
His Excellency wouldn't keep all the authority in the palm of his hand. Just like what Su Xin had said, as long as you had enough strength, you would be able to obtain the position you deserved.
After everything in Jiangnan Circuit was arranged, Su Xin was ready to start his closed-door cultivation for a period of time.
Although he had gone into closed-door cultivation in the Underworld for a period of time, he had only managed to learn two or three cultivation techniques from the Quintessence of Frozen Hell. This time, Su Xin wanted to familiarize himself with the Quintessence of Frozen Hell.
After instructing Huang Bingcheng and others to handle the daily affairs, Su Xin directly began his closed-door cultivation.
Originally, he planned to do closed-door cultivation for three months, but after only one month, Su Xin was woken up by someone.
It was not Huang Bingcheng and others who woke him up, but Magistrate Cui.
The token of Hades vibrated, and Magistrate Cui sent him a message, asking Su Xin to come to Hades when he had time.
In one month, Su Xin had almost mastered the useful martial arts skills of the True Solution of Hell. After thinking for a while, he directly stopped his closed-door cultivation and teleported to Hades.
According to Magistrate Cui, the space where Hades was located should coincide with Jiangnan Circuit, so it would not take much time to teleport from Jiangnan Circuit to Hades.
After coming out of his palace, Magistrate Cui was already waiting for him at the door of Su Xin's palace.
"Judge Cui, what's the matter?" Su Xin asked.
"There is a quest that suits you. I want to ask if you have the time to complete it," Magistrate Cui said.
"Is it a mission from the Hades or an inner circle member?"
"It's a quest issued by the Hades" Magistrate Cui said.
Hearing Magistrate Cui's words, Su Xin revealed a trace of astonishment.
Magistrate Cui had already explained that missions were divided into individual missions and missions issued by the Hades.
Individual missions were relatively simple and varied, but the missions issued by the Hades were related to the interests of the Hades themselves, and usually required many people to participate.
Why would Magistrate Cui look for him, a Divinity Stage martial artist, for such a difficult mission?
Magistrate Cui explained, "It's true that this mission was issued by the Hades, but it's not too difficult a mission. Moreover, it's more suitable for you to go. I heard that you have a good relationship with Xie Zhiyan from the Sword Fighting Sect?"
Su Xin did not know why Magistrate Cui suddenly jumped to Xie Zhiyan's side, but he still nodded and said, "We do have a good relationship. Is this related to the Sword Fighting Sect?"
Magistrate Cui said, "It's related. The mission this time is for you to take something from two second-rate families that don't have any Primordial Soul Stage martial artists from the Sword Fighting Sect. Of course, it's up to you what you want to do."
Su Xin raised his eyebrows and said, "It's just two second-rate families that don't have Primordial Soul Stage martial artists. I think it would be easier to get any inner circle member to go than me."
Magistrate Cui shook his head and said, "It's not the same. Our target is too big. We have no intention of offending the person from the Sword Fighting Sect, nor do we want to provoke him. That's why we chose you, who is related to the Sword Fighting Sect, to go."
Su Xin nodded his head. However, he was also curious in his heart. Just who in the Sword Fighting Sect was that the Hades were afraid of?
"Then what am I going to take this time? Where is the location of that thing? "Su Xin asked.
Magistrate Cui spread out his hands and said, "I only know that the target is a Heaven level sword that has already lost its spirituality. The location is roughly between the two families, but as for what the sword looks like and whose family it is, you will have to check it out yourself."
Su Xin was also speechless. He wanted him to get something, but in the end, he only had such a small clue.
Magistrate Cui said, "Don't think that the clues are too little. These clues were only divined by the Lun Zhuan King at the risk of losing a lot of his vitality."
"Oh, the Lun Zhuan King of my Hades is proficient in the Dao of Divination?" Su Xin said in surprise.
Divination was not just a trick used by swindlers to deceive people. Instead, there were people who had cultivated this to the extreme. They could sense some kind of change in the world and get some clues from it.
The people who were most proficient in divination were the people of the Taiyidaomen Sect and the Good Fortune Gate of the Four Sects of the Dao Sect.
The Heavenly Secret Valley, one of the Eight Heretical Sects, had developed this path to the extreme. Now that Lun Zhuan Wang was able to use the Heavenly Secret Divination Technique to start deducing, it proved that he had at least reached a higher level in this path.
"The people of my Hades are very talented. Everyone has their own specialty. How about it, are you prepared to accept this mission?
The reward of the Hades mission is not inferior to the individual mission. This time, the reward offered by Meng Po and Houtu is to let you choose any Earth-class weapon from the arsenal of the Hades and give you two Shaolin Recover Pills. "
On the surface, it seemed that Su Xin was at a disadvantage by exchanging a Heaven-class weapon for an Earth-class weapon. However, what Su Xin wanted was a Heaven-class weapon that had lost its spirituality.
The Heaven-class weapon had spirituality. An Earth-class weapon that had a spirituality would become a Heaven-class weapon. Without a spirituality, it was no different from an Earth-class weapon.
Moreover, it was imaginable how many good things existed in the arsenal of the Hades. The range of choices that Su Xin could make was larger. There were also two Recover Pills that could be regarded as the family heirlooms of second-rate forces. The reward of this mission was really not low.
"Okay, I will accept this mission." Su Xin immediately agreed.
Two small families without any Primordial Spirit Realm warriors was a piece of cake for Su Xin, so the mission was not difficult at all.
Furthermore, when he thought of the Sword Fighting Sect, Su Xin also wanted to take advantage of this time to go to the Sword Fighting Sect to see Xin Er.
Counting the time, it had been almost three years since he had separated from Xin Er.
During this period of time, it was not that Su Xin did not want to see Xin Er, but that he did not dare to go.
At that time, Su Xin did not have a firm foothold in the Jianghu. He was practically surrounded by killing intent. If he went to see Xin Er, it would only add to his troubles.
But now, Su Xin was different. In terms of strength, he was already ranked twelfth on the Mortal List. In fact, Su Xin even had the confidence to compete with the top ten of the Mortal List.
In terms of status, he was the chief constable of Jiangnan. He guarded the path and his power was unparalleled. At least in Jiangnan, no one dared to go against him.
Furthermore, Jiangnan was already on the right track. Basically, there were no existences like Yin Ji who wanted to court death, so the entire Jiangnan would not be in chaos. Therefore, Su Xin was prepared to go to the Sword Fighting Sect to see Xin Er.
After leaving the Hades, Su Xin instructed Huang Bingcheng and the others to watch over Jiangnan during this period of time. He had some matters to attend to.
After instructing Huang Bingcheng and the others, Su Xin stood up and headed towards the Jiannan Road where the Sword Fighting Sect was located.
Originally, Su Xin wanted to use the token of the Hades to teleport to the Hades, and then teleport to the Jiannan Road.
However, the Jiannan Road was relatively far from the Jiangnan Road. Even if Su Xin used up all his internal energy, he would not be able to teleport. Therefore, Su Xin could only use the Raging Flame Colt that Huang Bingcheng had prepared for him.
The Raging Flame Colt was said to have the bloodline of an ancient demonic beast. The strength of the horse was several times greater than that of an ordinary warhorse. Its entire body was scarlet red and it had an explosive temper. Ordinary warriors would not be able to subdue it, and only some of the local tribes in Western Liang could subdue it. A single horse was worth 100,000 taels of silver, and there was no market for it.
Although the speed of the Raging Flame Colt was not as fast as Su Xin's full speed, it had better endurance. Even so, it took Su Xin half a month to reach Jiannan Road.
The reason why Jiannan Road was called Jiannan Road was because it was one of the Five Sword Sects. Two of them were located in Jiannan Road. One was the Sword Fighting Sect, and the other was Mingjian Villa.
It was exactly because of this that there were far more swordsmen in Jiannan Road than in other paths. With just a glance, the streets were filled with sword-wielding cultivators.
The location that Magistrate Cui had given him was the Moling prefecture of Jiannan Road. The Moling prefecture was one of the larger prefectures in Jiannan Road, and there were only two clans in the prefecture, so it was an extremely obvious target.
The Hades had only given him a target. He could only investigate the details himself, so Su Xin continued to walk through Moling prefecture dressed as a middle-aged daoist.
The places with the most information in the jianghu were restaurants, and this was also the place that the agents of the jianghu liked to hang out the most.
So-called agents were people who specialised in selling information about the jianghu. For example, Zhang Busan, who had sold information to the Seven Heroes Guild and the others in the Qingyang prefecture, was a agent.
These people had a wide network of contacts and were well-informed. Most of them were local tyrants, so if you wanted to ask for information, they would be your first choice.
However, the prerequisite was that you had to be careful. There were plenty of people who specialised in scamming rookies of the jianghu.
The occupation of agents seemed ordinary, but there were places where they could flourish. One of the eight heterodox schools, the Valley of Divination, was like that.
The eight heterodox schools were not renowned for their martial arts, but for their various unorthodox arts. The Valley of Divination was renowned for its diverse range of arts, and they were the most renowned for not focusing on proper work.
From astrological mechanisms to divination, from medical geography to intelligence of the jianghu, the occupation of agents of the jianghu took up a relatively large portion of the valley's resources. If you wanted to buy any information, as long as you could afford it, the Valley of Divination would sell it to you.
After Su Xin arrived in the Moling prefecture, he directly made his way to the largest restaurant in the prefecture. He ordered a table full of dishes and alcohol, which immediately attracted the attention of many cultivators in the restaurant.
After all, Su Xin's current appearance and appearance still gave off a very sage-like feeling. A daoist like him should be paired with plain tea and vegetarian food, yet he ordered a lavish meal the moment he arrived. What was going on?
