Su Xin was aggressive. His goal was to make the Su Family hand over Su Zhongyuan.
As long as the Su Family backed down and handed over Su Zhongyuan, the direct descendants of the Su Family would definitely have some ideas.
Moreover, it wasn't just the direct bloodline that had such thoughts. The collateral bloodline would most likely have even more thoughts.
The Su Family could even hand over Su Zhongyuan, who was a direct descendant, without hesitation. If something happened again and they had to hand over the collateral descendants, would the Su Family do the same? There was almost no need for doubt.
Seeing that the Su Family's Patriarch did not speak, Su Xin pressed on, "Why? Does the Su Family want to go back on their word?"
Su Xin was sure that the Su Family's Patriarch would definitely choose to hand over Su Zhongyuan. As long as the Su Family's Patriarch was not a fool, he would definitely make this choice.
Although the overall situation was sometimes nonsense, as the head of a family, he would definitely consider the overall interests of a force, not an individual.
In the current situation, for the Su Family, throwing out Su Zhongyuan to let Su Xin, the Dugu Family, and the many martial arts forces of the Beiyuan Path stop pestering them was undoubtedly the most beneficial choice for the Su Family.
Of course, behind this choice was the dissension of the Su Family.
Just as Su Xin was about to add more pressure, the Dugu Family's Patriarch suddenly said, "This time, the Su Family was also implicated because their disciples were insensible, so it is pardonable.
So, we will accept double the compensation. As for this person, the Su Family does not need to hand him over. Go back and teach him well. "
Su Xin suddenly turned around and looked at the expressionless Dugu Family's Patriarch, and he sneered in his heart.
As expected of the Dugu Family's Patriarch. He had lived for such a long time and played tricks with people all his life. The Su Family's Patriarch could not compare to him.
Just now, he was still standing on Su Xin's side and pressuring the Su Family, but now he did not hesitate to turn around and stab Su Xin, making his plan fail.
The members of the Su Clan instantly revealed a trace of happiness when they heard the Dugu Clan's Ancestor, whereas, the powers of the Northern Plains Path nodded in agreement.
The reason why they used such a tough attitude to force the Su Family was only because of the double compensation in the bet.
Now that the Su Clan had already backed down and lost the bet, they had already gotten their benefits. Since that was the case, why did they still need to take Su Zhongyuan's life?
So when the Dugu Clan's Patriarch spoke, they immediately went along with him.
As for Su Xin's opinion, they did not intend to consider it at all.
Although Su Xin had a very fierce reputation in the Northern Plains, it couldn't compare to the prestige that the Dugu Clan had accumulated in the Northern Plains for thousands of years.
Therefore, when the patriarch of the Dugu Clan spoke, all of them stood on his side.
The reason why the Patriarch of the Dugu clan suddenly changed his mind was actually very simple. He felt that he had suppressed the Su clan enough, and now it was time to suppress Su Xin.
Originally, the people of the Dugu Clan were very afraid of the Su Clan.
After all, it was one of the three legendary hidden clans. In terms of historical heritage, almost no sect in the Jianghu could compare with it.
But now, it seemed that the so-called three hidden clans were nothing more than this.
Although there were experts in the Yang Spirit Realm in charge and there were many warriors in the Essence Soul Realm in the clan, their overall strength was weak. Among the top powers, they could only be ranked in the middle.
Since this was the case, and now that the Su Clan had come knocking on their door, they had lost all their dignity and even had to compensate the many powers of the Northern Plains Path for double the losses. Such a huge price was enough to hurt the Su Clan. At least now, the Su Clan was no longer a threat to the Dugu Clan.
Since the Su Clan's problem had been solved, it was time to give Su Xin, one of the Four Great Arresters, who had been very happy in the Northern Plains Path recently, a beating.
Because of the anger of the Six Fan School, the Dugu Clan chose to temporarily tolerate when Su Xin attacked the Northern Plains Path. As long as Su Xin did not provoke the Dugu Clan, the Dugu Clan would not take the initiative to provoke Su Xin.
But this did not mean that the Dugu Clan could let Su Xin stir up trouble in the Northern Plains Path. Otherwise, where would the dignity of the Dugu Clan be?
During this period of time, Su Xin had been so high-profile. Now it was time to let Su Xin know that although the Six Fan School was powerful, the Dugu Clan, which had been operating in the Northern Plains Path for thousands of years, was not easy to deal with.
Su Xin sneered and did not say anything more. Instead, he turned and left.
The Patriarch of the Dugu Clan had indeed played a clever trick. Su Xin did not expect that the Patriarch would turn around and suppress him.
In the eyes of the Patriarch of the Dugu Clan, he had risen to the same level as the Su Clan. Su Xin did not know whether he should feel honored or not.
But it did not matter. The matter of the Su Clan had not been planned by Su Xin for a day or two.
At the moment, the Su Clan had only lost a little blood at most. It was far from being seriously damaged. Moreover, Su Xin had another plan waiting for the Su Clan. This was the real highlight of Su Xin's plan.
At this time, in front of the Su Clan's mountain gate, many forces of the Northern Plains Path were very satisfied.
The Su Clan had lost the bet, but they had saved Su Zhongyuan's life. Therefore, they had given double the cultivation resources to the martial arts sects of the Northern Plains Path as promised.
The Dugu Clan had gained a wave of reputation. They had not only found out the details of the Su Clan, but also suppressed Su Xin. It could be said that the Dugu Clan was the biggest winner in this matter.
Therefore, these two forces went down the mountain with satisfaction. Only the Su Clan's people had gloomy expressions.
The cultivation resources that the Su Clan had handed over were just a little blood for the Su Clan.
After accumulating for tens of thousands of years, the Su Clan still had some assets. This amount was not enough to hurt the Su Clan.
However, the Great Ancestor of the Su Clan still felt a sense of fear lingering in his heart.
Compared to other experts in the Yang Spirit Realm, the Great Ancestor of the Su Clan had a much smoother path.
He was not like other warriors in the Yang Spirit Realm, who had gone through countless battles to reach this realm. The Great Ancestor of the Su Clan had relied on both talent and hard work to reach the Yang Spirit Realm.
Therefore, he was not even as good as those warriors in the Divine Transformation Realm when it came to sensing danger.
The Great Ancestor of the Su Clan was not used to this kind of suffocating feeling. He directly called Su Mingyuan and said, "During this time, you will be in charge of the Su Clan. If anyone dares to make a move without permission, they will be directly punished according to the family rules!"
Su Mingyuan nodded. This time, the Great Ancestor of the Su Clan had really decided to delegate power to him. He even gave him the right to enforce the family rules.
Although he used to be known as the Clan Master, he could only manage some of the collateral disciples of the Su Clan.
Even if those direct disciples did not listen to his orders, Su Mingyuan had to report it to the Great Ancestor of the Su Clan. Only then would he have the right to use the family rules to punish them.
Now that the Great Ancestor of the Su Clan had given him the right to use the family rules, Su Mingyuan finally had some of the dignity of the Clan Master.
However, at this time, Su Mingyuan did not have much excitement. Instead, he just smiled faintly.
The Su Clan had suffered a big loss, which made the Great Ancestor of the Su Clan a little vigilant. However, there were still many other shortcomings of the Su Clan. How many more losses did the Su Clan have to suffer to make up for it?
The Su Clan could afford to suffer a loss this time, but could the Su Clan afford to suffer a second loss?
Anyway, Su Mingyuan was not optimistic about the future of the Su Clan.
At this time, on the Six Fan School's side, Su Xin led his people down Wutong Mountain. The constables of the Six Fan School did not dare to say a word to Su Xin.
When they were on the mountain just now, everyone could see that Su Xin was obviously made a fool of by that old fellow from the Dugu Clan. He was definitely in a bad mood. They did not dare to get close to Su Xin at this time.
However, at this time, Tie Shi walked over and asked, "Sir, what should we do next?"
He was a member of the Tie Clan, and was personally sent by Tie Zhan to assist Su Xin's confidant. Thus, others did not dare to ask, but he did.
Su Xin pondered for a moment and said, "Use the Six Fan School's spy channel to inform the Six Fan School of Jiangnan Street. Ask Huang Bingcheng to come to the capital to help me."
In terms of strength, the Six Fan School of Shengjing City under Su Xin's command was actually much more powerful than the Jiangnan Street.
However, the downside was also very obvious. Su Xin couldn't blatantly cultivate his own confidants.
Su Xin's people in the Jiangnan Street were true confidants. To them, between the Six Fan School and Su Xin, Su Xin's orders would definitely come first, and the Six Fan School's orders second.
Thus, Su Xin did not feel at ease leaving some secretive matters to them. Thus, he was prepared to transfer Huang Bingcheng, who was more capable, to Shengjing City.
Although Tie Shi was also considered his confidant, Tie Shi's way of doing things was more inflexible. He was far less flexible than Huang Bingcheng.
Moreover, although Tie Shi obeyed him now, Tie Shi still had the surname Tie, and he was still a member of the Tie Clan.
As Su Xin's status rose, it was hard to guarantee that he would not have any disagreements or conflicts with the Tie Clan in the future.
When that time came, would Tie Shi help him or the Tie Clan? This was an unknown factor.
Thus, Su Xin was prepared to keep a few confidants by his side.
While waiting for Huang Bingcheng, Su Xin ordered the others not to disturb him. After returning to his room, he entered the System Space.
In the past, most of Su Xin's Villain Points were spent on drawing skills, followed by pills. He would not use consumables unless it was necessary.
As for weapons, Su Xin rarely changed them. However, some of Su Xin's Villain Points were spent on weapons.
Among the various options in the System, the only one that Su Xin did not spend any Villain Points on was the Miscellaneous option.
Originally, Su Xin thought that the Miscellaneous option was just an obstacle that the System set up for him in the early stages.
Before Su Xin used the Advanced Lottery, the Miscellaneous option basically gave him some useless things. The only useful thing was the human skin mask.
However, now, Su Xin realized that there were still many interesting things in the Miscellaneous option. If used well, it would bring unexpected benefits.
