The large sects had the restrictions of the large sects, so as long as the small sects did not openly provoke them, they would naturally not wantonly slaughter them.
However, at the same time, as long as those small sects were not crazy, they would not provoke those large sects.
The reason why they did not attack you was because you had not touched their bottom line. Once you touched the bottom line of those large sects, they would use the sword in their hands to tell you what the difference in strength was.
"Oh right, why did the Sword Fighting Sect send you over this time? With your position in the Sword Fighting Sect, it shouldn't be your turn to appear for such a small matter. "Su Xin asked doubtfully.
The Sword Fighting Sect was not the Xiao Clan. The Patriarch wanted to mediate a lot of things, so the young disciples of the aristocratic families had to start training very early.
The structure of the Sword Fighting Sect was similar to that of the Sword God Mountain. They all took the elite path, and there were specialized disciples in charge of these mundane matters. The direct disciples were only responsible for cultivation, and that was enough.
With Xie Zhiyan's status, dealing with these matters would only be a waste of time. It would be more worthwhile to use this kind of time to cultivate.
Therefore, some of the leaders of the large sects who walked the elite path would let their direct disciples stay away from these messy matters and cultivate in peace. Only then would their strength be able to crush everything.
Xie Zhiyan explained: "There's nothing we can do, this is the rule of our Sword Fighting Sect. Ever since three of the four great Sword Masters of our Sword Fighting Sect fell, and even more of the middle and lower level disciples fell, our Sword Fighting Sect decided that from now on, all the disciples have to go through some mundane matters to gain experience. We can't be like before, where we just know how to cultivate."
Su Xin squinted his eyes. Su Xin also knew about the matter that Xie Zhiyan was talking about. It was a huge matter that shook the entire Jianghu, and it was also the key to turning the Sword Fighting Sect from prosperity to decline.
This matter happened twenty years ago, and it was related to the Chasing Corpse Sect in The Nine Hells.
The Chasing Corpse Sect was a very different kind of demonic sect in The Nine Hells. They were not proficient in martial arts, but in refining the corpses of all kinds of powerful warriors and controlling them to become corpse puppets to fight for them.
The demonic path had always been hated by the righteous path, and the Chasing Corpse Sect was not well-liked by the demonic path. the reason was because the Chasing Corpse Sect's cultivation technique required a large number of corpses of powerful warriors.
The corpses of some rogue cultivators or ancient warriors were not easy to obtain, so they turned their attention to the tombs of the major sects to steal the corpses.
It could be said that the Running Corpse Sect had dug up other people's ancestral graves quite a few times. They had almost drawn the attention of both the Righteous and Corrupt paths.
Therefore, the Corpse-chasing Sect had always kept a low profile in the martial arts world. Usually, when they had nothing to do, they would not wander around the Central Plains. They would hide in the deep mountains and forests of Xiangxi to refine corpses and cultivate.
The enmity between the Chasing Corpse Sect and the Sword Fighting Sect was because of a corpse, the corpse of the founder of the Sword Fighting Sect.
The founding ancestor of the Sword Fighting Sect was not in the Sword Fighting Sect when he passed away. After he founded the Sword Fighting Sect, he left alone to travel the world and disappeared.
However, twenty years ago, the Chasing Corpse Sect accidentally discovered the corpse of the Sword Fighting Sect's Patriarch.
The ancestor of the Sword Fighting Sect was an Earth Immortal in the True Martial Realm. His corpse had been immortal for thousands of years, and his sword intent was inextinguishable. If the corpse of such an existence was refined into a corpse, it would at least double the strength of the Chasing Corpse Sect!
However, when this news was accidentally spread, it aroused the anger of the Sword Fighting Sect.
After all, no sect could tolerate their own ancestor being used as a tool to refine a murder weapon. This was simply an insult to their Sword Fighting Sect.
Therefore, the Sword Fighting Sect strictly ordered the Chasing Corpse Sect to hand over their ancestor's corpse. Otherwise, they would fight to the death with the Chasing Corpse Sect.
However, the Chasing Corpse Sect would definitely not agree to such a request. A True Martial Realm Earth Immortal's corpse could double the strength of the Chasing Corpse Sect and make them one of the top three existences in the Nine Evil Paths. Of course, they would not hand it over just like that.
In order to protect the dignity of the Sword Fighting Sect, the Sword Fighting Sect directly mobilized all of its members under the leadership of the four great Sword Masters. They directly engaged in a life and death battle with the Chasing Corpse Sect, but the result was that both sides suffered heavy losses.
After this battle, three of the four great Sword Masters of the Sword Fighting Sect fell. Only the youngest 'Sword Master of Profound Heart', Meng Jingxian, survived.
As for the rest of the disciples of the Sword Fighting Sect, nearly seventy percent of them had fallen, causing the strength of the Sword Fighting Sect to completely decline, falling from the position of number one among the five sword sects.
The Chasing Corpse Sect was even more miserable than the Sword Fighting Sect. The entire Chasing Corpse Sect was almost completely annihilated by the Sword Fighting Sect. The eighteen Mysterious Sky Golden Corpses that were refined from the corpses of Yang God Realm warriors were all killed, and the Sect Leader of the Chasing Corpse Sect also died under the sword of the Sword Fighting Sect's Limitless Sword Master.
If not for the fact that the remnants of the Chasing Corpse Sect had escaped with the Chasing Corpse Sect's inheritance treasure, the Chasing Corpse Sect would have long since ceased to exist in the martial arts world.
However, after this incident, the Chasing Corpse Sect could be said to have suffered a great blow to its vitality. The remaining members hid in the deep mountains and forests of Xiangxi to recuperate. For the past twenty years, they had not taken a step into the Central Plains. One could imagine how miserable they were.
Back then, this incident had shaken the entire martial arts world. After all, it was a battle of extermination between two top sects. The scene and impact were huge, and it had even affected today.
In the past twenty years, not only did the Chasing Corpse Sect not recover, even the Sword Fighting Sect was the same.
Otherwise, the Sword Fighting Sect would not have allowed a direct disciple like Xie Zhiyan to interfere in the sect's affairs. This was because the Sword Fighting Sect really did not have anyone else, and they were taking the elite route. Even some outer sect disciples who were in charge of handling miscellaneous items could not be used to make up the numbers.
Xie Zhiyan rubbed her head with a headache. She could practice her swordsmanship and kill people, but she was really not good at handling such things.
At this moment, Su Xin suddenly said, "Why don't I help you? I'll help you settle the matter between the Zhou and Shen families. "
Xie Zhiyan suddenly looked at Su Xin. It had to be said that Su Xin was the best at this kind of thing.
In terms of intelligence, Xie Zhiyan believed that she was not inferior to Su Xin, but that also depended on where she was.
Su Xin, the chief constable of Jiangnan, was undoubtedly the best at dealing with the matters of the Zhou and Shen families.
He had dominated the Jiangnan Path, causing those second-rate and first-rate forces with Essence Soul Realm warriors to go around in circles. He had shaken the Jiangnan Path. Now, dealing with the Zhou Clan and the Shen Clan, who were considered to be at the bottom of the second-rate forces, was a piece of cake.
However, Su Xin continued, "Of course, my methods might be a little more intense. People will die, and a lot of people will die."
Xie Zhiyan frowned and said, "Can you use a more moderate method?"
Su Xin shook his head and said, "No, you've seen the situation of the two families. Their eyes are completely bloodshot. They won't let go unless enough people die.
Furthermore, if I use this method, I can let your Sword Fighting Sect settle things once and for all. You don't have to worry about these two small families anymore. "
Xie Zhiyan thought for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Although she wasn't a demoness like Yin Xixue who had killed countless people, she wasn't the kind of woman who was soft-hearted either.
Xie Zhiyan had relied on killing to get to the bottom of the Human Ranking Board. The number of villains who had died in her hands was countless.
Right now, the actions of the Zhou and Shen families clearly showed that they did not place the Sword Fighting Sect in their eyes. It was because they knew that the Sword Fighting Sect would not touch them that they were fearless.
With Xie Zhiyan's identity as a disciple of the Sword Fighting Sect, there were too many restrictions on her. If she did not let Su Xin use his ruthless methods, even if she stayed here for another month, things would not improve.
"Then what do you plan to do?" Xie Zhiyan asked.
Su Xin said: "Very simple, let the two families be completely crippled. Aren't they a second-rate force now? Then, I will let them fight to become a third-rate power, and then add in the other third-rate powers of the Mo Ling Manor, and let them compete with each other. Your Sword-fighting Sect just needs to watch from the sidelines, and not let one of them become the strongest. "
One monk carried water to eat, two monks carried water to eat, three monks did not have water to eat.
When there were more powers in the Mo Ling Manor, even if they wanted to fight, they wouldn't be able to. They could only continue to clash with each other.
Xie Zhiyan was silent. Su Xin's method sounded simple, but in reality, there were a lot of people who died.
Be it the Zhou family or the Shen family, they each had about ten Divinity Level martial artists. In order to turn them into third-rated forces, they would have to weaken their strength by at least 90%. Among the ten Divinity Level martial artists, at least eight or nine of them would have to be at the Divinity Level.
Xie Zhiyan nodded her head: "Alright, thank you for this matter. When we return to the Sword Fighting Sect, I will take out something to thank you."
Su Xin shook his head and said: "There's no need to thank me, the Zhou Family and the Shen Family are second-rate powers no matter what, and their family background is not thin either. Your Sword-fighting School does not like the things that they have, so I will take it as a reward."
Since Su Xin had already said so, Xie Zhiyan naturally had no other objections.
In any case, she was completely at her wit's end against these two families. Everything would depend on how Su Xin would perform.
However, Xie Zhiyan was still very curious as to how Su Xin would incite the Shen and Zhou families to fight to the death. It should be known that these two families weren't Su Xin's puppets. Su Xin could kill as many people as he wanted.
Su Xin took out a human skin mask from his mustard seed bag. This was the human skin mask he had used before, and it was a handsome young man.
This human skin mask was Su Xin's identity in the Merchant Mountain City, Meng Qingze, the disciple of Zong Haoyang, the Four Ultimate Cultivator.
"Miss Xie, although the Shen family and the Zhou family are vassal families of your Sword Fighting Sect, your understanding of them is not as deep as mine.
For example, in the Shen family, the former loose cultivator Zong Haoyang had fallen in love with the eldest daughter of the Shen family, Shen Xijun. In the end, they were separated by the Shen family, causing Zong Haoyang to live in regret for the rest of his life. Because of this, Shen Xijun became a nun and never married.
And my current identity is Zong Haoyang's disciple, Meng Qingze. Right now, the Shen family's strength is obviously weaker than the Zhou family, which is different from what I expected, so I want to use this identity to 'help' the Shen family first. "
