Wen Yu invited Su Xin to the King of Shu's Mansion for a chat, but Su Xin was not very willing.
At that time, he did not help Ji Yanxiu. On the contrary, it could be said that he cheated the King of Shu.
At that time, Su Xin did help Ji Yanxiu stabilize his power in Bashu, but in the end, he also used Ji Yanxiu to get rid of the chief constable Qiu Baichuan.
Although Ji Yanxiu wanted to go back on his word at that time, he had to do so because of Su Xin's threat.
Therefore, Ji Yanxiu was cheated by Su Xin at that time. When Su Xin finally left, he hated Su Xin even more. Why did he want to see him now?
However, now Su Xin still had serious matters to attend to. He had no time to play tricks with Ji Yanxiu here, so Su Xin directly refused, "Your Highness, I appreciate your kindness, but this time I came to Bashu for something important. I will catch up with Your Highness when I have time in the future."
With that, Su Xin was about to leave, but Wen Yu stopped him in front of him and said with a smile, "Lord Su, please wait. The King of Shu really wants to catch up with you and thank you for your help. It won't take long. Lord Su won't be so busy that he can't even spare a day, right?"
Seeing that Wen Yu was so anxious, Su Xin suddenly showed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
As the saying goes, one does not get up early without benefits. What does Ji Yanxiu want to do?
However, since Wen Yu had said so, Su Xin did not feel distressed about wasting a day. He nodded and said, "Well, I'll go with you, Eunuch Wen."
Wen Yu took Su Xin all the way to the King of Shu's Mansion. The current King of Shu's Mansion had changed a lot compared to a few years ago.
Back then, Ji Yanxiu had neither money nor manpower. The only one she could afford was Wen Yu, the old eunuch.
Back then, Su Xin had helped Ji Yanxiu forcefully pull in so many experts. By now, Ji Yanxiu was almost done digesting them.
Most importantly, ever since the end of the Kunlun Secret Realm, the Crown Prince and the rest had been deposed. Ji Haodian had directly ordered all the princes to have the right to enter the capital to fight for the position of prince. Thus, idle Master like Ji Yanxiu had become a hot commodity.
In the past, no one joined them because there was no future for them.
After all, these people had been exiled from Shengjing City and were far away from the center of the imperial court. Not only would they not be able to become emperors in the future, they might even be punished by the new emperor.
Because of this, none of the warriors came to seek refuge with Ji Yanxiu, even though Ji Yanxiu's conditions were very generous.
But now, with the news, there were people rushing to join Ji Yanxiu.
After all, with a single order from Ji Haodian, these idle Master had all become potential stocks. At the very least, they were worth investing in.
After entering the King of Shu's Mansion, Ji Yanxiu personally came out to welcome him. With a look of surprise, he said, "Lord Su, you missed me so much. Back then, when we parted in Bashu, I knew that Lord Su was definitely not an ordinary person. Now, it seems that I was right. In such a short time, Lord Su, you have become one of the Four Great Constables. Your name has shaken the pugilistic world."
Su Xin also smiled and cupped his hands. "Your Highness, King of Shu, you flatter me."
Ji Yanxiu was very warm towards Su Xin. Along the way, he asked about his well-being and personally pulled Su Xin into the hall. He was very courteous.
Of course, he knew that it was impossible for him to recruit Su Xin. He was only doing this to show goodwill to Su Xin.
Seeing Ji Yanxiu like this, Su Xin could almost guess what he was thinking. It was nothing too important. He was just looking for an opportunity to build a relationship. He wanted Su Xin to help him in the battle for the throne in the future.
After all, Su Xin was here. He was one of the Four Great Constables and an expert on the Earth List. If he had the help of such an expert, Ji Yanxiu would have a considerable advantage in the battle for the throne in the future.
Although Ji Yanxiu did have some disagreements with Su Xin in the past, compared to the real benefits, these disagreements were nothing.
Ji Yanxiu had already prepared a banquet. At the same time, there were also some warriors recruited by Ji Yanxiu.
However, all of these warriors were in the Divine Transformation Realm. There was no one in the Harmonious God Realm. Of course, with Ji Yanxiu's current strength, it was impossible for him to recruit people in the Harmonious God Realm unless he trained them himself.
After Ji Yanxiu invited Su Xin to take a seat, he said to the crowd, "Everyone, this is one of the Four Great Constables of Six Doors. He is an expert on the Earth List, 'Blood Sword Divine Finger' Su Xin. Everyone should have heard of his name, right?"
Everyone nodded repeatedly. At the same time, there was a look of surprise in their eyes.
Who was the most famous person in Jianghu during this period? Was there anyone else besides Su Xin? Who in Jianghu did not know this existence who could kill two Yang God Realm experts with the strength of the Divine Transformation Realm?
It could be said that Su Xin's reputation was even greater than some Yang God Realm experts who had not been in Jianghu for a long time.
All the warriors respectfully cupped their hands and said, "Greetings, Lord Su!"
Although everyone present was older than Su Xin, age was the least valuable thing in Jianghu.
Su Xin's strength and power were obvious. With so many people present, who would dare to disrespect him in the slightest?
"No need to be so polite, everyone." Su Xin casually waved his hand and let everyone sit down.
Su Xin turned to Ji Yanxiu and said, "Your Royal Highness, as far as I know, many princes have already entered the capital. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to seize the opportunity if you arrive late?"
Ever since Ji Haodian announced that the Crown Prince and King Tai, Ji Yancheng, and the others had been abolished and that other princes were also qualified to compete for the position of crown prince, many princes had entered the capital one after another during this period.
However, these people had also learned a lesson from Ji Yancheng and the others. Therefore, they kept a low profile in Shengjing City and did not cause any trouble.
Ji Yanxiu smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Su, do you still think that I am the same Ji Yanxiu from back then? At this time, the bird that sticks out will be shot. What good would it do to go to Shengjing City first? I don't dare to develop my forces and instead have my hands and feet bound.
Why would I still rush to Shengjing City? I might as well slowly develop in Bashu. "
Su Xin looked at Ji Yanxiu in surprise. This person really changed. Ji Yanxiu had improved quite a bit in the past few years.
If it had been a few years ago, Ji Yanxiu would probably have brought his men to Shengjing City rashly. He had not thought of this.
Su Xin laughed and said, "Your Royal Highness, there is no need to worry. Right now, the forces under the King Tai and the others have all been eliminated by His Majesty. The other princes do not have as much power as you, so you can rest easy."
Ji Yanxiu smiled and shook his head. "The battle for the position of crown prince is extremely dangerous. There is no room for relaxation. Lord Su, I will not hide it from you this time. I invited you here because I want to ask something of you. In the future battle for the position of crown prince, I do not ask for you to stand on my side. I only ask that you help me at the crucial moment. I will be eternally grateful."
Ji Yanxiu humbled himself in front of everyone, which made the martial artists who had pledged their allegiance to Ji Yanxiu a little surprised.
They knew that Su Xin was strong. As one of the Four Great Super Arresters, Su Xin had great power.
But the problem was that Ji Yanxiu was also a prince. After the Crown Prince and Ji Yancheng were stripped of their power, Ji Yanxiu was now one of the strongest princes in the Zhou Kingdom. Was there a need to humble himself to Su Xin? It was even to the extent of trying to please him.
But in this situation, they did not dare to interrupt. In the face of Ji Yanxiu's public show of goodwill, Su Xin just laughed it off. He was not an idiot. Of course, he would not openly express his stance at this time.
After the banquet, Su Xin directly took his leave. He did not have the leisure to accompany Ji Yanxiu and pretend to be polite.
Ji Yanxiu did not force him to stay. In any case, his goal had been achieved.
In fact, the reason why he wanted to catch up with Su Xin was actually very simple. It was to strengthen his impression in Su Xin's heart. After all, they had dealt with each other before. If he really needed Su Xin's help in the future, it would be easier to talk at that time.
Moreover, this time, Su Xin did not refuse on the spot. Instead, he sat with him for a meal. This showed that Su Xin did not resist cooperating with him, Ji Yanxiu. It was enough for Ji Yanxiu to know this.
After Su Xin left, a warrior who looked to be only in his thirties came up to Ji Yanxiu and said, "Master, didn't you think too highly of Su Xin just now?
You have to know that although Su Xin is now one of the four Super Arresters of Six Doors, your current strength can be ranked in the top five among the many crown princes. Is there a need to humble yourself so much? "
This warrior in the Divine Transformation Realm was called Lou Quanzhong. He was born as a rogue cultivator and was the first warrior in the Divine Transformation Realm to join Ji Yanxiu. He was talented and capable, so he was almost the most trusted confidant under Ji Yanxiu apart from Wen Yu.
It was because of this that he could ask such a question to Ji Yanxiu. If it were anyone else, they would not dare to ask such a question.
Ji Yanxiu chuckled and said, "You haven't worked with Su Xin before, so you don't know how terrifying he is. Even if I really ascend to the throne in the future, the position of Chief Arrester of Six Doors will still belong to Su Xin. In the entire Six Doors, besides him, who else is qualified to sit in that position?
As a superior, as long as the people under you can help you, what's wrong with being humble? That wasn't a favor, it was a courtesy to the wise.
For example, Tie Ao, the 'Divine Eagle' of Six Doors, has never flattered my father. He didn't even greet me when they met. Even so, what can he do? Six Doors still has to be managed by Tie Ao.
As long as Su Xin can really be used by me, I don't care how humble I am. "
Lou Quanzhong lowered his head with a somewhat complicated expression.
As the first person to join Ji Yanxiu, he listened to everything she said, but in the end, he was still a henchman.
Su Xin's attitude towards Ji Yanxiu was cold, but Ji Yanxiu flattered him and even prepared to let him take over Six Doors in the future.
Although Lou Quanzhong knew that all this was related to strength, he still felt a little upset.
