Su Xin was temporarily in charge of the affairs of the entire Jianghuai Sect. There were not many people present who wanted to wrestle with Su Xin.
Although they were Wu Yuanchun's confidants, they were not like the few people in the Tongtian Island Arsenal who shared weal and woe with Wu Yuanchun. Wu Yuanchun even told them the plan he discussed with the White Lotus Sect.
But now that Wu Yuanchun was dead, why should they be loyal to a dead man?
Moreover, some people had another thought in their minds. That was, Su Xin was now fully in charge of the affairs of Jianghuai Sect. If Su Xin was going to choose the chief of detectives of Jianghuai Sect in the future, he might choose one of them.
After all, everyone knew that the people under Su Xin's command had either not grown up or were already stationed in other places. It was impossible to choose a suitable person to be the chief of detectives of Jianghuai Sect.
If they could curry favor with Su Xin, they might really have a place in the position of chief of detectives of Jianghuai Sect.
Thus, someone immediately said, "Lord Jiang, you're thinking too much. With Lord Su's breadth of mind, why would he care about our previous disrespect?
In the past, it was because of Wu Yuanchun's coercion that we said a few bad things about Lord Su. But now that Wu Yuanchun is dead, we naturally have to follow Lord Su's lead. Don't you think so? "
This warrior was named Fang Linke, and he was also one of the deputy chief of detectives of Jianghuai Sect.
Wu Yuanchun had developed in the entire Jianghuai Sect for such a long time, and his ability was not bad. So when it came to the comprehensive strength of his men, Jianghuai Sect was much stronger than Jiangnan Sect.
There were as many as 11 deputy chief of detectives in the Divine Transformation Realm present. Among them, Fang Linke was also the youngest one. He was just over 40 years old this year, and he was strong. He was considered the top among the many deputy chief of detectives, so there were five or six deputy chief of detectives who were on good terms with him, and they were all young arresters of Six Doors of Fans.
To these people, they would naturally be loyal to Wu Yuanchun when he was still alive. However, now that Wu Yuanchun was dead and they still had room to rise, who would be willing to be buried together with Wu Yuanchun?
Therefore, when they heard Fang Linke's words, those chief detectives who were on good terms with him all nodded in agreement. They were waiting for Su Xin to come and cozy up to him.
However, when Jiang Zhaoyang saw their expressions, he sneered in his heart.
As a veteran of Jianghuai Street's Six Fan School, he was very clear about the tricks of Six Fan School.
Fang Linke's thinking was too simple. Once Wu Yuanchun died, would they be able to hug onto Su Xin's thigh? It was simply wishful thinking!
For the Four Great Super Arresters like Su Xin, even if he didn't have enough men, he would rather leave the position empty than let these two-faced people take the position of chief of detectives in Jianghuai Road.
When Wu Yuanchun was alive, you followed Wu Yuanchun to slander and insult Su Xin. This kind of thing couldn't be hidden.
As a result, now that Wu Yuanchun had just died, you couldn't wait to please his former enemy. This kind of thing would make anyone feel disappointed.
No one would like to use these people who betrayed their master. Today, you treated Wu Yuanchun like this. How would you treat Su Xin in the future?
Therefore, Jiang Zhaoyang expected that even if Su Xin accepted them, he would not put them in an important position. At most, he could only let them keep their current positions, and then he would strictly guard against them. The position of chief of detectives in Jianghuai Road would still be reserved by Su Xin for his trusted subordinates.
In addition to the two-faced people like Fang Linke, there were some people who were ready to negotiate with Su Xin.
Like Jiang Zhaoyang, these people were all veterans of Jianghuai Road's Six Fan School.
However, they were different from Jiang Zhaoyang, who had no ambition. These people also wanted to go further. At least, they wanted to ensure that they did not lose their current power.
These people were the backbone of Jianghuai Road's Six Fan School. When Wu Yuanchun was alive, he needed them. Now that Su Xin was here, he couldn't do without them.
Therefore, the attitude of these people was that they could listen to Su Xin's words, but the premise was that Su Xin had to give them enough benefits and status. Otherwise, don't blame them for tearing you down.
Although they didn't dare to openly wrestle with Su Xin because that was purely looking for death, it was not a problem for them to be passive and slack in the dark.
After all, they had not heard of anyone in Six Fan School being beheaded by their superior because of procrastination. If Six Fan School had such strict laws, it was estimated that not many people in Jianghu would rush to join Six Fan School and the imperial court.
Following Wu Yuanchun's death, all of Jianghuai Road's Six Fan School became noisy. Everyone had their own thoughts and had already become scattered sand.
However, at this moment, the meeting hall of Six Fan School was pushed open. The meeting hall was suddenly silent. Everyone looked in the direction of the person and couldn't help but stand up.
Dressed in a black and red official's robe, Su Xin stepped into the meeting hall. There was not the slightest oppressive aura on his body, but it made the hearts of everyone present tremble.
This was the prestige that belonged solely to Su Xin, and it was also the result of his years of hard work in Jianghu.
Among the many people present, there were those who wanted to curry favor with Su Xin, those who wanted to remain neutral, and those who wanted to secretly play some tricks.
However, they all knew that although Su Xin was young, the current Su Xin was an existence that could directly determine their life and death.
Right now, Su Xin was already one of the four great Super Arresters and ranked 48th on the Terrestrial Roll. Who knew what position he could reach in the future?
Right now, Su Xin could look down on them, but in the future, they probably wouldn't even have the qualifications to be looked at by Su Xin.
Everyone present cupped their hands and said, "Greetings, Lord Su!"
Su Xin naturally sat on the main seat and waved his hand. "Everyone, please sit. No need to be so courteous."
As everyone present sat down, Su Xin tapped his finger on the table and said, "Everyone, I believe you have already received the news. Sir Tie Ao has temporarily given me full authority over the affairs of Jianghuai Road.
I am also very sad that Sir Wu Yuanchun died in the line of duty. However, such a large Jianghuai Road cannot be left unmanaged. Therefore, in this time of crisis, I still need everyone to work together. "
The constables of Six Doors immediately had strange expressions on their faces. They were already speechless at Su Xin's shameless words.
Wu Yuanchun's death was something that you couldn't even be happy about, yet you would be devastated? Could it be that those who could sit on the position of the four great Super Arresters were all so shameless?
Su Xin ignored their gazes and continued, "However, I am an outsider after all, and I still don't know much about the affairs of Jianghuai Road. Therefore, I still need to rely on everyone."
Jiang Zhaoyang hurriedly said, "Lord Su, you are too kind. We will do our best."
Fang Linke also said, "Lord Su, please rest assured. From now on, we will follow Lord Su's lead. If you say one thing, we will definitely not say another. We guarantee that we will do better than when Wu Yuanchun was here."
Jiang Zhaoyang and the others all looked at Fang Linke and the others with disdain. This kind of person was a little too shameless.
When Wu Yuanchun was here, he treated you well. It should be said that as the true helmsman of Jianghuai Road, Wu Yuanchun was able to establish himself in Jianghuai Road for so many years. He was not the kind of person who treated his subordinates harshly.
In the end, Wu Yuanchun had only died a few days ago, yet you were already so eager to serve under your new master. You even publicly called Wu Yuanchun by his name. This kind of behavior would naturally be looked down upon.
They didn't expect Fang Linke to always be loyal to Wu Yuanchun, but at the very least, he should be neither servile nor overbearing like Jiang Zhaoyang and do things according to the rules. It was a little too much to kneel and flatter Su Xin in front of everyone.
Similarly, Su Xin was just as Jiang Zhaoyang thought. He also didn't like this kind of shameless person.
However, Jiang Zhaoyang was wrong about one thing. Su Xin didn't like this kind of person, but it didn't mean that he wouldn't use them. On the contrary, he would be more at ease using them.
For people like Fang Linke, as long as you could guarantee your absolute strength, he would never be able to resist you.
However, even if Su Xin used them, it was only because of their strength and directly used them as tools. When it came to the real benefits, it would definitely not be their turn.
Therefore, on the surface, Su Xin still smiled and said, "It's good that everyone thinks this way. In the future, the affairs of Jianghuai Road will be shared by everyone. Well, let's talk about the White Lotus Sect first."
At this time, someone said, "Lord Su, wait."
Su Xin looked at the person who spoke. This was a valiant-looking warrior in the Divine Transformation Realm. He was Deputy Chief Constable Feng Yan. Among the people present, his strength should be the strongest. He was at the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm and was probably only one step away from the Harmonious God Realm.
With a strength like Feng Yan's, he could definitely be a chief constable in any other road. However, Jianghuai Road was where his foundation was, so he was not willing to give up his current position.
Su Xin frowned. He didn't like people interrupting him.
However, now that Feng Yan had spoken, Su Xin still asked, "Deputy Chief Constable Feng, do you have anything else to say?"
Feng Yan sighed and said, "Lord Su, in fact, our Jianghuai Road is far from as strong as it looks on the surface.
Because Jianghuai Road doesn't have a top martial arts force to deter others, once some sects and martial arts forces in the pugilistic world start fighting, it won't be so easy to end it.
The Sanjiang Waterway General Alliance itself was just a loose alliance. Apart from when they were facing foreign enemies, they would be fighting among themselves most of the time.
At this time, not to mention taking care of others, it would be good if they could take care of themselves first.
Therefore, although the number of Divine Transformation Realm warriors in Jianghuai Road's Six Doors of Fan is almost the highest among the 49 roads in the Zhou Kingdom, it is still not enough.
Over the years, we have lost a lot of constables and constables, and we are quite short of manpower and cultivation resources, so Lord Su, please order some compensation for us. "
Feng Yan spread his hands and said, "Otherwise, we don't have people and resources. Now we have to make a move against the White Lotus Sect. It's not that we are incompetent, but we really can't do it."
