Normally, the Four Great Constables should have been chosen by the members of the Six Fan Sect, just as Su Xin had been before.
They had only done it that way back then because Tie Ao wanted to preserve the Six Fan Sect's absolute impartiality, so he came up with that system.
But now, even if Tie Zhan simply named someone to become one of the Four Great Constables, who would dare utter a word of protest?
Tie Zhan had long since planned to throw out all the old rules.
The reason Tie Zhan had called Su Xin over was to ask him to recommend someone for one of the positions among the Four Great Constables.
Tie Zhan could have filled both vacancies with members of the Tie Family, but that would have looked bad, no matter how reasonable it might sound.
The Six Fan Sect was the Six Fan Sect, and the Tie Family was the Tie Family. Everyone knew that the Tie Family controlled nearly eighty percent of the Six Fan Sect's strength, but it still wouldn't be a good look if too many of the Four Great Constables had the surname Tie.
So this time, Tie Zhan planned to promote just one Tie Family martial artist to the Four Great Constables. Su Xin would recommend the other.
That would leave the Four Great Constables arranged as before, with one member of the Tie Family and three outsiders. The difference was that all three outsiders were actually on the Tie Family's side and wouldn't oppose them the way Liu Fengwu and the others had.
Su Xin thought for a moment, then offered a name. "Li Huai."
Tie Zhan frowned. "But Li Huai is only at the Spirit Transformation Realm. He's a little underqualified."
Su Xin shook his head.
