After Su Xin had his fill in the restaurant, he took out a bottle of pills and placed it on the table.
This was a replica of the Shaolin Minor Rejuvenation Pill from the Six Fan School. It was ten percent less effective than the authentic Shaolin Temple's Minor Rejuvenation Pill. However, as long as one wasn't an alchemist, they wouldn't be able to tell.
Su Xin's actions immediately attracted the attention of many.
One of them was a young man in his thirties. He was dressed like a young master of an aristocratic family and was holding a folding fan. He walked over and cupped his fists towards Su Xin. "Daoist Sir, are you here to inquire about some news? I am untalented, but I can be considered one of the top wind agents in the entire Jiannan Path. As long as it's something that happens in Jiannan Path, I can't say that I know everything, but I know at least 99% of it. "
Su Xin asked, "How should I address you?"
The young man replied, "I am untalented, 'Hyacinth' Zhang You."
Su Xin paid attention to his surroundings. When Zhang You walked over, the other wind agents who were eager to make a move all deflated and stopped paying attention to him.
Clearly, he was rather famous among the wind agents in Jiannan Path. At the very least, he was able to deter the other wind agents from trying to snatch his job.
Su Xin pushed the pill in front of Zhang You and gestured for him to take a look.
Zhang You opened the pill and took a sniff. His face immediately revealed a hint of joy. "A Minor Rejuvenation Pill from the Shaolin Temple. Daoist Sir, you sure are generous. Just ask whatever you wish to know. I, 'Hyacinth' Zhang You, will not tarnish my reputation."
"I would like to ask about the current situation of the two second-rate aristocratic families in your Moling Prefecture."
Zhang You said, "Are you referring to the Zhou and Shen families? Their families have been stirring up quite a lot of trouble recently. It even alarmed the Sword Fighting Sect. "
Su Xin knocked on the table and said, "Tell me the situation of these two families in detail. Also, how did these two small aristocratic families manage to alarm the Sword Fighting Sect?"
Zhang You explained, "The Shen family and the Zhou family are actually considered vassals of the Sword Fighting Sect, but in name, they are in a cooperative relationship.
The Shen Family and the Zhou Family originally had a piece of Primary Magnetite Ore. The Taoist priest should know about Primary Magnetite Ore. It was a common material used for refining weapons and was not worth much.
However, Magnetic Essence Iron was an exceptionally precious mineral. The Shen and Zhou Families accidentally discovered that this seemingly ordinary Magnetic Iron actually contained a large amount of Magnetic Essence Iron. This was incredible.
These two clans were not fools. They knew that with their own strength, they could not protect the Magnetic Fine Iron Mine, so they took the initiative to join the Sword Fighting Sect. They handed over 90% of the Magnetic Fine Iron Mine to the Sword Fighting Sect, seeking protection from the other sects of the Pugilistic World.
Originally, even though the two clans had handed over 90% of the Primary Magnetic Iron, even the remaining 10% was enough for their clans' power to skyrocket.
But recently, for some reason, the Zhou Family suddenly killed a direct disciple of the Shen Family. Because of the Shen Family's revenge, the two sides were at loggerheads and even had a series of battles, as if they wanted to completely annihilate each other.
For the sake of the stability of the Magnetic Fine Iron Mine, the Sword Fighting Sect specially sent the Nine Tribulations Girl, Xie Zhiyan, to mediate. However, it was still useless. "
A trace of surprise flashed through Su Xin's heart. Since Xie Zhiyan was here as well, then his plan would have to be changed.
Originally, he had planned to ask the Wind Medium if the Zhou and Shen Families had any news of Heaven level or Earth level weapons. If there was, he could just sneak into the Shen Family and snatch it from the Zhou Family. If there wasn't, then he could just destroy the Zhou and Shen Families and slowly search for them.
However, now that Xie Zhiyan was here, these two families could be considered vassals of the Sword Fighting Sect. His relationship with Xie Zhiyan was not bad, and Xin'er was also in the Sword Fighting Sect, so he could not be so simple and crude.
Su Xin continued to ask, "Then do you know why the two of them started fighting? Was it because they were fighting over a certain treasure? "
Zhang You shook his head and said, "I really don't know about this. The Zhou Family seemed to have suddenly killed a direct disciple of the Shen Family, which caused the Shen Family to retaliate.
Daoist priest, you also know that a second-rate family like the Shen Family doesn't even have a Primordial Soul Realm warrior. Every direct disciple is an extremely precious existence. Now that one of them was suddenly killed, of course they would go crazy.
Furthermore, this matter was clearly instigated by the Zhou Family. When the Sword Fighting Sect came to mediate, the Zhou Family was the first to object. It was as though they would not rest until they destroyed the Shen Family.
However, even if the Zhou Family is stronger than the Shen Family, it is only by a little. Even if they destroy the Shen Family and monopolize the Magnetic Fine Iron Mine that originally belonged to the Shen Family, they would still suffer a great loss. The gains do not make up for the losses. "
Zhang You shook his head, his expression somewhat conflicted.
Clearly, to a Wind Medium like him, the most unbearable thing was that there was actually something they did not understand.
After obtaining the information he wanted, Su Xin turned and left.
Zhang You kept the Minor Rejuvenation Pill in his bosom, feeling that he had profited greatly from this transaction.
The matter between the Shen Family and the Zhou Family had already caused an uproar in the city. Any cultivator would be able to find out. It was just that he knew more details.
Using such outdated information to exchange for a bottle of Shaolin Temple's Minor Rejuvenation Pill, not only was this transaction not a loss, he had also profited quite a bit.
At this moment, in the Sword Fighting Sect's Mo Ling Manor, Xie Zhiyan had just returned from the Zhou Family. Her mediation was once again rejected by the Zhou Family. No matter how much Xie Zhiyan tried, it was useless.
Putting down the sword in her hand, Xie Zhiyan rubbed her head. She was the worst at such matters, but the sect had sent her to handle such matters.
However, at this moment, Xie Zhiyan felt a cold wind blow in the room. A person appeared behind Xie Zhiyan.
"Clang!"
The sword was unsheathed, and a cold sword Qi slashed behind her. At the same time, a formless sword Qi slashed out. The two collided, and the sword Qi in the room immediately scattered.
Just as Xie Zhiyan turned around to continue attacking, she saw the person standing in front of her and was taken aback. "Su Xin, why are you here?"
Su Xin, who had returned to his original appearance, chuckled and said, "Miss Xie, how have you been? It's a joyous occasion for you to leap to the top ten of the Man Roll in three years. "
Sheathing her sword, Xie Zhiyan shook her head and said, "The joyous one is you. No one expected that the leader of a small gang from the Southern Barbaric Lands would now become the chief constable of Six Doors, who oppresses Jiangnan.
Qingcheng sword school is probably regretting making you their enemy back then, but they didn't kill you. "
The people of Qingcheng sword school were indeed very depressed. If Su Xin was only the twelfth on the Man Roll, Qingcheng Sect would not be so afraid. He was alone, just like Shen Jin, a rogue cultivator. No matter how strong he was, he had to be careful.
However, Su Xin was now the chief constable of Jiangnan. He had the support of Six Doors and the imperial court.
Such an existence was not something that Qingcheng sword school could kill at will. Therefore, now Qingcheng sword school was no longer shouting to kill Su Xin.
After all, Su Xin only killed the son of Elder Fang Rui, and it was Elder Fang Rui who made him a mortal enemy. As long as Fang Rui no longer targeted Su Xin, Su Xin would not be stupid enough to make an enemy of Qingcheng sword school.
As one of the Five Sword Sects, even the Six Doors did not dare to say that they could destroy Qingcheng sword school, let alone him, the chief constable.
Therefore, most of the elders of Qingcheng sword school did not want to provoke Su Xin in the future. This matter was over. In any case, Su Xin could not do anything to Qingcheng sword school.
However, this idea was not bad, but it depended on whether Fang Rui, whose son had been killed by Su Xin, would let it go.
"By the way, did you come to Jiannan to see Xin'er?" Xie Zhiyan asked.
Su Xin nodded and said, "How has Xin'er been recently?"
Xie Zhiyan said, "Not bad, Xin'er's talent is very high. Three months ago, Xin'er broke through to the Innate Stage. This is rare even in my Sword Fighting Sect."
In those top sects, most of the disciples broke through to the Innate Stage at the age of fifteen.
Xin'er was only eleven years old this year, and could already be considered one of the top talents.
"However, if you want to go to the Sword Fighting Sect to see Xin'er, you still have to wait a while. I still have some matters to attend to here. After I'm done with these matters, I'll bring you to the Sword Fighting Sect." Xie Zhiyan said.
Su Xin sat opposite of Xie Zhiyan and said, "Is it because of the matter between the Shen and Zhou families?"
Xie Zhiyan nodded her head. This matter had already spread like wildfire, so it was not strange for Su Xin to know about it.
Su Xin said: "Logically speaking, the Shen and Zhou families, two second-rate forces that are attached to your Sword Fighting Sect, shouldn't have such guts. With you, a direct disciple of the Sword Fighting Sect, to mediate, they actually didn't listen.
Furthermore, your Sword Fighting Sect is also very strange. Since it's useless to mediate, why don't you send a warrior of the Primordial Spirit Realm to suppress them? It's just two small second-rate forces, yet you guys are already in a terrible situation. "
Xie Zhiyan shook his head and said, "The top sects also have their own helplessness. There are some rules that you have no choice but to follow.
Although in reality, these two families are vassals of my Sword Fighting Sect, in name, we are only allies.
It is true that their ruckus has an impact on our Sword Fighting Sect's mining of magnetic iron, but they did not provoke our Sword Fighting Sect.
If we were to come out and suppress them without any reason, wouldn't that be no different from the demonic path? Our Sword Fighting Sect cannot afford the fallacies of the outside world right now. "
Hearing Xie Zhiyan's words, Su Xin could only shake his head. Pedantic, the way the Sword Fighting Sect did things was a little too pedantic.
It was extremely laughable for a great sect to be unable to do anything to two second-rate forces. However, this kind of thing would only happen to some righteous sects in the Central Plains.
If it was a place like Xiangnan, regardless of whether you provoked us or not, if I felt that you deserved to die, then you deserved to die. It wasn't the first or second time that a sect had been annihilated in Xiangnan.
For example, those second-rate forces with Primordial Spirit Realm warriors in Xiangnan, their attitudes were extremely arrogant, and their style of doing things had nothing to do with the righteous path.
