Two Realms: Don't call me evil!

"Master Su, we had no grudges against each other before, why do you want to humiliate my Cui family like this?"

Cui Huaian took a few deep breaths and forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart.

If possible, he didn't want to have a conflict with Guiling Palace.

If the Cui family only relies on themselves to face the three Purple Mansion monks of Guiling Palace, they will probably be in great danger.

"You are the head of the Cui family. I think your Cui family is deeply involved in sin and is unaware of it. You even dare to shelter the enemy wanted by our Guiling Palace."

Su Jie put his hands behind his back, stepped into the air, and came to Cui Huaian and others step by step.

As Su Jie approached, a spiritual pressure swept over like a tsunami, causing many Cui family members to change their faces and their hearts to beat like drums.

But due to the Cui family's reputation, they did not hide in the mountain protection formation to talk to Su Jie, as that would make them seem too cowardly.

"Sect Master Su, please give them some space. They are just the old, weak, women and children. They are no threat to Guiling Palace. Why do you have to kill them all? For the sake of my Cui family, I hope you can be magnanimous and let them go."

Cui Huaian's heart skipped a beat. Su Jie had indeed come to question the Cui family for taking in those children from aristocratic families.

However, at this time, Cui Huaian still had a glimmer of hope, thinking that Su Jie was not willing to have a head-on conflict with their Cui family.

"We, the Cui family, will never betray our trust!"

Cui Jinjin puffed her cheeks, extremely dissatisfied with Su Jie's unreasonable request.

"Tsk tsk, your Cui family's reputation is useless to me."

Su Jie sneered twice, looked around, threw out a treaty, and said mercilessly: "Not only do you have to hand over the people, but your Cui family also has to pay taxes to my Guiling Palace, otherwise your fate will be exactly the same as those destroyed families."

Cui Huaian saw the contract that Su Jie threw out. It was about taxation of the Cui family. The spectacle tax alone would cost a full 500 million spirit stones.

You know, 100 million spirit stones can buy a low-grade spiritual treasure, and 500 million spirit stones are equivalent to the value of a medium-grade spiritual treasure. Even for the Cui family, it is an extremely large number.

Not to mention the other taxes in the treaty. Given the Cui family's wealth and power, according to the tiered tax system in this treaty, the Cui family would have to pay the maximum tax.

These treaties seemed to have calculated the Cui family's approximate industries in detail, and almost all of them were at the Cui family's industrial limit. It seemed that this tax treaty was designed around the Cui family to collect maximum taxes.

Seeing this scene, not only Cui Huaian was shocked, but even the other members of the Cui family couldn't believe it.

Originally, I thought Su Jie just wanted to get people, but I didn't expect that Su Jie would actually impose taxes on their Cui family, one of the five major families.

"Master Su, collect taxes. Our Cui family is one of the five great families. Even the royal family dares not collect taxes from us."

Cui Huaian’s eyes widened with anger, and for the first time he felt extremely angry.

"You don't have to pay the emperor's taxes, but the taxes of my Guiling Palace cannot be reduced by a single cent. This is the rule of my Guiling Palace, and your Cui family is no exception."

Su Jie seemed not to notice the anger on Cui Huaian's face, and there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth. The Cui family was such a fat sheep, how could Su Jie not bleed them.

Cui Huaian looked unhappy. Su Jie actually came here to collect taxes from the Cui family.

Paying taxes is an extremely unfamiliar word to the Cui family.

If an ordinary person said this word, he would have ordered him to be beaten to death, but it was Su Jie who said this. Thinking of the Three Purple Mansions of Guiling Palace,
Cui Huaian's face turned blue and purple, and finally he seemed to have made a decision. He said with a humiliated face, "Sect Master Su, as long as you can exempt our Cui family from taxes, we can hand over those children of the noble families that you want to arrest to you."

In Cui Huaian's opinion, what he did was already an act of extreme restraint.

This move was suspected of betraying those aristocratic families, but there was no other way. For the future of the Cui family, the cost of confronting Guiling Palace was too high, so they could only hand over those children of the aristocratic families who had defected to them as a token of their allegiance to Guiling Palace.

It's just that Cui Huaian was able to swallow his anger and restrain himself, but his family members couldn't be as tolerant as he was.

Cui Jinjin's face flushed at Su Jie's tone, and she shouted, "Grandpa, how can you give in to this cruel and mad demon?

Su Jie, let me tell you, you, the devil who brings disaster to the world, don't even think about collecting taxes from our Cui family. Even if we melt the spiritual stones, we can't pay taxes to you, a devil, let alone hand anyone over to you.

Our Cui family will never submit to a demon like you, so you better give up on this idea as soon as possible."

These words were so deafening that even the righteous and evil cultivators at the Daotai realm in the Chiyao Immortal Palace cast their eyes over to her, shocked by the bravery of this little girl.

They, who are at the Daotai realm, don't even dare to say a word against Su Jie, let alone scold him. How dare Cui Jinjin, who is at the Mizang realm!
Su Jie tilted his head. The last time someone dared to be stubborn in front of him was Tantric Buddhism.

Ever since the fall of Tantric Buddhism, few people have dared to whine like that in front of him.

"You don't want to pay taxes? You are a very brave girl. I admire your courage!"

Su Jie raised his lips, and the next second he started to move at zero frame, and immediately slapped out with his right hand: "Since you have the courage to speak, you should also be ready to die heroically, right?"

"No!"

Cui Huaian was stunned. He didn't expect Su Jie to suddenly attack. It was too late to react. In fact, even if he could react, he couldn't stop Su Jie from killing people.

Cui Jinjin’s eyes widened. She only saw Su Jie move his hand, and then all her consciousness fell into darkness.

Because her head was smashed into pieces by Su Jie's palm, red and white scattered all over the ground. The headless corpse staggered and fell to the ground with a thud.

I don’t know if Cui Jinjin would dare to be so outspoken and speak to Su Jie in such a tone if she had the chance to regret.

The whole place was silent. All the members of the Cui family were dumbfounded. They stared blankly at Cui Jinjin, the beloved genius of the Cui family, dying at the hands of Su Jie. They were all stunned for a moment and did not come back to their senses for a long time.

Is Su Jie a lunatic, as he destroyed a beautiful girl just because of Cui Jinjin's words?

Cui Huaian's hands were trembling as he held Cui Jinjin's headless body on the ground, like a stone statue, with extreme sadness and anger in his eyes.

"The Cui family rebelled. Pass on my order. Today, we will punish the Cui family for their disobedience. All members of the Cui family will be killed."

Su Jie gave the order nonchalantly. As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual energy of the entire Chiyao Immortal Palace surged, and a group of righteous and evil monks also burst out with spiritual power and were filled with fighting spirit.

"You have long wanted to deal with our Cui family"

When Cui Huaian heard Su Jie's words, his face became ferocious and terrifying.

How could he not understand at this time that the so-called request for people and payment of taxes were all excuses. Su Jie came here with the intention of killing the Cui family from the beginning.

"From today on, the five great families will become four great families."

Su Jie laughed loudly, and a thousand-armed centipede roared out from his sleeves, pouncing towards Cui Huaian and biting him.

"Oh, Su Jie, you have gone too far and offended our family. There will be no place for you in the Dali Dynasty."

Cui Huaian stood up suddenly. He looked at the Thousand-Armed Centipede that was rushing towards him. The Thousand-Armed Centipede, which had recovered its size to cover the sky and the sun, with its Purple Mansion cultivation level, was totally beyond the ability of him, with his Daotai Realm seventh level cultivation level, to fight against it.

"Su Jie, you forced me to do this. Do you really think that our Cui family is the fat meat in your mouth?"

Cui Huaian had a purple fruit in his hand with spiritual patterns shining all over it. This was the Zixiao Gang Fruit, which could only grow in top-level blessed places. It took ten thousand years to mature and was a rare and precious divine fruit.

Cui Huaian swallowed the Zixiao Gang Fruit in one gulp, and the spiritual power in his body began to surge wildly, breaking through the seventh level of the Daotai realm and directly reaching the spiritual power level that only the Purple Mansion cultivators could have.

The Zixiao Gang Fruit can increase the spiritual power of a cultivator in a short period of time and can last for an hour.

But merely reaching the amount of spiritual energy is at best an empty shell. The Purple Mansion cultivator not only has a qualitative change in spiritual energy, but his primordial spirit can also become a Yang God and can use the power of the Dharmakāya.

Just as Cui Huaian's spiritual power surged, the jade talisman hanging around his waist suddenly shattered with a snap, and a strange-looking phantom of a Dharma image emerged and merged into Cui Huaian's body.

Above the sky, the breath of the long river of the Void Avenue flowed out, and Cui Huaian's soul immediately underwent drastic changes, and a huge phantom of a Dharma image emerged.

"Not a fish!"

Cui Huaian's skin was cracked inch by inch. It was obvious that he was bearing a force that did not belong to him, which had great side effects on his body.

As he roared, the phantom of the Dharmadhatu behind him took shape completely. A Dharmadhatu with a body like a fish, a phoenix tail, vertical pupils in eyes, and a mouth full of fangs moved violently and collided with the attacking Thousand-Armed Centipede.

Cui Huaian himself also took out a mid-grade spiritual treasure, the Five Elements Mountains and Rivers Ruler. When the ruler moved, the sky turned upside down and dragons and snakes emerged from the land.

Among the five major families today, only three still have purple mansions in the world, but the Cui family is not one of those three families.

However, with thousands of years of heritage, even if the Cui family does not have a Purple Mansion in the world, they still have enough power to compete with the Purple Mansion cultivators.

Su Jie witnessed this scene and was not surprised.

If the five great families did not have some trump cards, they would not have achieved such a reputation.

"Su Jie, if you retreat now, we can still coexist peacefully."

While controlling the Feiyu Dharmakāya to fight against the Thousand-Armed Centipede and invoking the power of the Five Elements Mountain and River Ruler, Cui Huaian shouted loudly to Su Jie.

"You can't even hold Xiao Qian up, and you still dare to speak so shamelessly."

Su Jie didn't care, and the Thousand-Armed Centipede attacked more and more fiercely.

With a body three thousand meters long, every attack could cause the mountains to tremble, and the earth would crack into deep canyons, gradually suppressing the non-fish form.

Cui Huaian's current combat power is enough to fight against ordinary Purple Mansion early stage cultivators, but it is not enough to deal with the Thousand-Armed Centipede that is like a walking disaster, and it can easily drag Cui Huaian to death.

The Thousand-Armed Centipede's huge size made it difficult for Cui Huaian to really shake it.

After an hour, Cui Huaian will be beaten back to his original form, and will be crushed and flattened by the Thousand-Handed Centipede. However, judging from the ferocious look of the Thousand-Handed Centipede, Cui Huaian will probably not last more than an hour. (End of this chapter)
