Chapter 187 Jiangnan Society

ps: This chapter is for book friend Xiaoxiang Feiyu's 10,000 starting point coins to reward and add updates.

Su Xin held the invitation letter from the Jiangnan Association, but his face showed surprise. He almost forgot that his current ranking was the 23rd in the list, and he was eligible to be invited by the Jiangnan Association.

The so-called Jiangnan Club is a martial arts event held by one of the six great aristocratic families, the Jiangnan Xiao Clan.

Although the Jiangnan Xiao family, one of the six great families, is not as old as the Runan Shangguan family, it is the most powerful line among the six great families, and its background is astonishingly large.

It is said that thousands of years ago, when the world was in turmoil, and the former overlord Jin was just a small country, the Xiao family had already become the king in the south of the Yangtze River, and the country was named Daliang.

However, after the struggle for hegemony in the world, the rise of the Jin Kingdom, all the small countries were destroyed, and the Great Liang was naturally also destroyed. The descendants of the Xiao family were exiled in the rivers and lakes, and became one of the six great families, the Jiangnan Xiao family.

The Xiao family in the south of the Yangtze River was born in the royal family, and their status is beyond words. When the Eastern Jin Dynasty became the overlord of the Central Plains, they were also afraid of the remaining power of the Xiao family, fearing that they would be destroyed, so they made the Xiao family Pinghou, hereditary.

Now that the Great Zhou Dynasty dominated the Central Plains, they also wanted to appease the Xiao family, so they granted the Xiao family a Marquis of An, which is also hereditary.

Because of this, the nickname of Xiao Huang, who is second on the list, is 'Xiao Anhou'.

His father, the patriarch of the Xiao family is Anhou of this generation, and his own strength is also second in the list. No one in the younger generation of the Xiao family can compete with him, and the patriarch of the next generation is almost destined to be him, so he was selected It is called 'Xiao Anhou'.

However, in Su Xin's view, the so-called Marquis Ping and Marquis An are more ironic than honors.

Whether it is the Eastern Jin Dynasty or the Great Zhou Dynasty, look at the titles they gave: Pinghou, Anhou, that means that although your Xiao family used to be a royal family, but now it is not your turn to make decisions in this world, I will give you a title, honestly In fact, just stay in Jiangnan in peace, don't go out and make any fools.

Of course, this title is a symbol of strength in the eyes of Jianghu people, even the imperial court wants to win over their Xiao family.

At the beginning, this Jiangnan meeting was a tradition for the Xiao family to attract disciples, and later it evolved into a grand event that the young generation of martial artists in the whole martial arts forest can participate in.

The development path of the aristocratic family is completely different from that of the martial arts sect. Although the blood of the family can guarantee the loyalty and unity of the family, the cohesion is stronger than that of the sect, but how many geniuses does a family have? What the martial arts sect recruits are young heroes from all corners of the world.

Because of this, these great aristocratic families have a tradition of recruiting followers, and the Xiao family even took a different approach, holding a Jiangnan meeting to attract talented and potential young warriors from no family or small sect to join the Xiao family to carefully train them.

This kind of clientele cultivated from an early age is undoubtedly much more loyal than the clientele recruited with a lot of money in the later stage.

Moreover, they can also marry the children of the Xiao family. After a few generations, they can completely integrate into the Xiao family and become a member of the Xiao family. It is precisely because of this strategy that the Xiao family has gradually grown and become the head of the six great families. .

At the beginning, the Jiangnan Club had such a purpose, but later on, the Xiao family also invited some well-known young heroes to come to the Jiangnan Club to comment and appreciate. As more and more people came to the Jiangnan Club, some changes took place in the Jiangnan Club.

With the establishment of the list by Six Doors, the young heroes of the younger generation in the world are fighting more and more fiercely.

However, the martial arts forest in the Central Plains is so big, sometimes even if you want to step on the opponent's superior position and come to challenge, you may not be able to find someone. There are not many martial artists who have been in the sect's retreat all the year round.

So some warriors gathered at the Jiangnan Meeting, and the Xiao family would let them compete when recruiting customers, and if the strong ones wanted to make a move, they could also go to the Jiangnan Meeting to try their skills and update their rankings.

Later, the scale of this Jiangnan Association became larger and larger, and more and more young martial artists came. The Xiao family found this opportunity to improve the reputation of the Xiao family, so they completely expanded the Jiangnan Association and established it as a young martial arts club. The event of a generation.

All martial artists aged 35 or over in the entire martial arts forest can participate. The top three finalists will be rewarded with great gifts regardless of whether they join the Xiao family or not. Solicit.

And martial artists on the human list have a special arena for everyone to compete if they want to do it. The top 30 martial artists on the human list are even more eligible to be invited by the Xiao family to come to the Jiangnan meeting and become one of the judges who evaluate those casual martial artists. It's the same as the elders in the Xiao Jiayuan Divine Realm.

From Su Xin's point of view, this trick is really clever, and it cleverly captured the minds of some warriors.

Why is there such fierce competition among the martial artists on the list? It's nothing more than a 'name'.

Now let them serve as the judges of the Jiangnan Association. They are also young warriors. The people below are fighting in the arena just to attract the attention of the Xiao family and become the disciples of the Xiao family.

But they can sit on the high platform and comment on these warriors together with the elders of Xiao Jiayuan's spiritual realm. I believe many warriors will want to give this vanity a try.

Therefore, it is an honor in itself to be invited by the Xiao family to personally issue invitations to the Jiangnan meeting.

However, this Jiangnan meeting is different. The imperial court even participated in it, and asked Gu Donglai, the general manager of the Jiangnan Road march, to join forces with the Xiao family to hold the Jiangnan meeting together.

I don't know if the court was jealous because the Xiao family recruited a large number of potential young warriors every year, so it suddenly intervened.

But these have nothing to do with Su Xin now, he originally planned to go to the Central Plains.

Now that he has broken through to the peak of the Spirit Aperture Realm, he still needs a certain chance to break through to the Divine Palace Realm. The Central Plains is undoubtedly a good place to go.

Putting away the invitation and sending Chen Qiao away, Su Xin decided to set off for the Central Plains, but at this time the news of Su Xin's appearance in Lingzhou Mansion had already spread.

When Su Xin killed Zhu Zefang and others, everyone thought that Su Xin must have found a secluded place to recover from his injuries, but no one thought that he would be so courageous and stay in Lingzhou not far from the incident. The government recuperates the wounded.

You must know that although he killed Zhu Zefang and others, there is no guarantee that other lay disciples from Shaolin Temple will not come to him for revenge, and there are still people in Zhujiazhuang, this Su Xin is also daring.

Su Xin was still alive, and he was still alive and well. The news spread to other lay disciples of Shaolin Temple, but they remained silent.

Just as some warriors ridiculed them for being bullying and fearful before, they were scared by Su Xin.

The lay disciples of Shaolin Temple are a group, but they are not such a close group. Unless there is something that threatens their entire group, otherwise, if something happens, they will find a few close friends or take out some things to invite them. Go to the same door to help.

For example, this time Zhu Zefang found Duan Tianya and invited Zhou Changxin with a yellow-level weapon.

The lay disciples of Shaolin Temple will indeed be unanimous to the outside world, but the premise is that in the case of unanimity, even if they can't benefit, they can't damage their interests.

With Su Xin's strength now, it is obvious that four or five fighters in the Divine Palace Realm can't do anything to him at all. If there is no benefit in this way, who would want to go up and die?

They would only move unless the leaders who had broken through to the Yuanshen Realm among the lay disciples from Shaolin Temple spoke.

But it's a pity that the existence of the Yuanshen Realm didn't know whether it was something wrong or because of other reasons, they didn't say anything, so they had no choice but to pretend to be deaf and dumb, as if they didn't know the news.

Those lay disciples from Shaolin Temple can pretend not to know, but the people from Zhujiazhuang can't.

In the past six months since Zhu Zefang's death, their Zhujiazhuang can be said to be extremely miserable.

Originally, Zhujiazhuang was not very strong, but it was not until Zhu Zefang returned from Shaolin Temple, coupled with his cultivation in the Divine Palace, that Zhujiazhuang was able to rise from Hannan Road, and it was considered a small force.

But now that Zhu Zefang was killed, many other lay disciples from Shaolin Temple in Hannan Road came to express their condolences, all of them were innate warriors, what happened?

After expressing condolences, they didn't even fart, just patted their buttocks and left, which made the people in Zhujiazhuang gnash their teeth.

At least you guys left some elixir of cultivation techniques to take care of the growth of the descendants of the same sect in the past, so you just left?

But it's a pity that their complaints are useless. Although they are both lay disciples of Shaolin Temple, their relationship with Zhu Zefang is not as close as that of Duan Tianya. , what are you kidding?

And it is precisely because of the attitude of some people that Zhujiazhuang's current situation is extremely bad.

In the past, under Zhu Zefang's power, the people of Zhujiazhuang occupied a lot of land and business around Zhujiazhuang.

The other martial arts forces gave Zhu Zefang a face, it should be said that they would give face to the lay disciples of the Shaolin Temple behind him, so they all backed down a step.

And now that Zhu Zefang is dead, judging by the attitudes of other lay disciples of Shaolin Temple, it is obvious that they have no intention of continuing to help Zhujiazhuang, so why are they hesitating? In the past six months, the land in Zhujiazhuang still has business, and almost all of it has been eaten away.

The people in Zhujiazhuang couldn't take it anymore, so the only surviving elder in Zhujiazhuang wished the old man to come out of the mountain and summoned all the second-generation disciples of Zhujiazhuang to discuss the matter together.

Mr. Zhu is already in his seventies and eighties. He is not a congenital warrior. He is old now. After Zhu Zefang returned to Zhu's house more than ten years ago, he has no business.

But now this kind of situation can't help him not to show up. Zhu Qifang, the current owner of Zhujiazhuang, can't support Zhujiazhuang at all.

Even if it is the other second-generation disciples of Zhujiazhuang, it is the same. Although they are also in the innate realm, they are far behind the dead Zhu Zefang in terms of strength and courage.

Although the old man Zhu is not in the innate realm, he has cultivated Zhu Zefang, Zhu Qifang and other innate fighters, which is not easy.

And in terms of prestige, Mr. Zhu is the highest existence in Zhujiazhuang, so when this Mr. Zhu's family speaks, Zhu Qifang and others can only stand aside obediently and listen to his orders. (To be continued.)
