Ten Tailed Fox

Chapter 2040 The Sinner

"One of the five major families, the Sinful Family." Zhang Liuyang replied calmly.

Criminal family?

"The name your family came up with is really offensive." Su Bujin couldn't help but tease, "I'm curious, when I attacked Langya Realm, the other four clans all came forward, why didn't your Zui family stop me?"

Zhang Liuyang asked in return: "Why would the criminal family stop it?"

Su Bujin said: "Aren't the five major families from the same faction?"

Zhang Liuyang paused and said, "If you knew the origins of the criminal family, you probably wouldn't think so."

Su Bujin didn't care about the origins of the Zui family, but asked directly: "What exactly do you want to do by bringing me here? Do you want to keep me as a bargaining chip in the negotiation with Qiyuan Realm to gain more benefits?"

Zhang Liuyang said: "If I say yes, will you agree?"

Su Bujin said without hesitation: "Of course, you can set any conditions. As long as you can let me go back alive, I can agree to it within my ability."

Zhang Liuyang did not respond after hearing this, but said, "Come with me, the master wants to see you."

When Su Bujin was brought out of the dungeon by Zhang Liuyang, he felt a little doubtful.

However, one thing that is certain is that Zhang Liuyang probably does not want his own life, otherwise he would never have lived until now.

  As for the mysterious head of the Zui family, Su Bujin was also quite curious. Why did the other party want to see him?

Zhang Liuyang remained silent all the way, and Su Bujin followed quietly behind him.

The Zui family is not as grand as the other four families. It does not have any magnificent buildings, and the entire family atmosphere is very low-key.

They walked through several dim corridors and finally came to a carved wooden door.

The door was gently pushed open, and a fresh air blew in, which was completely different from the decayed smell in the dungeon. Su Bujin took a deep breath and felt a little calmer.

After entering the room, Su Bujin saw an old man in a simple robe sitting behind a desk with a solemn expression.

The old man slowly raised his head, with a deep light flashing in his eyes.

"Miss Su, we finally meet." The old man's voice was low and gentle, like a spring breeze blowing through Su Bujin's heart.

Su Bujin was stunned and looked at the old man carefully. After a moment, she showed a look of surprise: "Senior Zhang Dehou?!"

If the old man in front of him hadn’t spoken personally, Su Bujin would have almost forgotten about him.

This person was none other than one of the many prisoners in the Lost Heaven of the Demon Cult in his early years.

None of the prisoners in Lost Sky are ordinary people. For example, which one of the Gambler, Tie Erlangzi, and Hei Sanxia is a good person?

And the village chief of that village was Zhang Dehou!

Just think about it, the fact that Zhang Dehou could become the village chief of this group of people is enough to show how extraordinary he is.

But Su Bujin did not expect that this village chief Zhang was actually the head of the Zuin family, one of the five major families.

There was no aura emanating from Zhang Dehou's body, making it completely impossible for Su Bujin to see through his cultivation level.

Zhang Dehou said, "Miss Su, I have been paying attention to you since I left the Qiyuan Realm. Or rather, the entire Zui Family has been paying attention to you. I just didn't expect to meet you in this way." After a brief shock, Su Bujin immediately came to his senses, bowed and said, "Hello, Senior Zhang. Why are you interested in our Qiyuan Realm?"

Zhang Dehou said, "I also took part in the Holy Rebellion back then. Do you want to guess what role I played?"

Hearing this, Su Bujin frowned at first, then relaxed his brows: "I can't guess, but you should not be the enemy of Qiyuan Realm."

Zhang Dehou seemed very satisfied with Su Bujin's intelligence. He nodded and said, "That's right. During the Holy Rebellion, I tried my best, but I still couldn't prevent the fall of the high-level officials of Qiyuan Realm."

"Excuse me, why do you want to help the Qiyuan Realm? Or in other words, what is your relationship with the Qiyuan Realm that makes it worthwhile for you to do so?" Su Bujin asked.

Zhang Dehou said, "Bujin, do you know Haotian's last name?"

"It seems to be Zhang?" Su Bujin thought for a while and said. As soon as she said this, she guessed a little bit and a look of disbelief appeared on her face.

Zhang Dehou nodded and said, "Our lineage is Haotian's family, the former Zhang family!"

Although he guessed the answer, Su Bujin was still shocked beyond words.

Zhang Dehou said slowly: "In fact, there were only four major families in the Holy Court before, and the Sin Family joined later."

"Before this, the Zui family was still the most dazzling Zhang family in the universe!"

"The Zhang family is one of the families in the Qiyuan Realm. At that time, the Qiyuan Realm was divided into many factions until a young man from the Zhang family appeared. This man was Haotian."

"Haotian showed his extraordinary talent at a young age, and quickly rose to prominence in the Qiyuan Realm, unifying the Qiyuan Realm. Later, he ascended to the throne of the number one person in the heavens and became the Lord of the Holy Court."

"However, at the height of his prosperity, the wheel of fortune suddenly turned in the other direction."

"The emergence of the Holy Rebellion caused Haotian to die on the battlefield. His death not only brought a devastating disaster to the Qiyuan Realm, but also caused the glory of the Zhang family to suddenly dim."

“Without Haotian as our pillar, the Zhang family’s power declined rapidly. At the last moment, I had no choice but to take the remaining members of the clan away from the Kaiyuan Realm and linger on in the myriad worlds.”

At this point, Zhang Dehou suddenly looked at Su Bujin, his eyes becoming extremely complicated: "Bujin, actually I am the same as you. Back then, when I was at the end of my rope, I knew that the forces in the heavens would not allow the Haotian lineage to survive, so I made an important decision."

"That is to surrender to Ying Tian and gain a chance of survival."

"Yingtian did not touch anyone from the Zhang family. In order to maintain the bloodline left by Haotian, I made a heartbreaking decision, which is to label the Zhang family as a 'sin'."

"In exchange, the Zhang family joined the five major families and helped the Holy Court to find out the situation of the four major families and play a balancing role."

"This is the origin of the sinner family!"

After hearing this, Su Bujin was unable to calm down for a long time. He did not expect that Haotian's bloodline still existed in the world.

Su Bujin looked at Zhang Liuyang and asked tentatively, "I heard that during the Holy Rebellion, Haotian gave birth to a son."

"It was me." Zhang Liuyang said calmly, "I was too young at that time and I don't remember the Shengluan incident."

Zhang Dehou said: "Liu Yang is Haotian's biological son. In terms of seniority, I am Haotian's uncle, and Liu Yang is my grandson. He is also Haotian's only direct bloodline at present."

Su Bujin frowned and said, "If that's the case, how could Ying Tian let him become a young dragon of the Holy Court?"
