The path to immortality through martial arts begins with being forced into marriage!

"What the hell is that?!"

Cui Zhenfeng was caught off guard and was terrified by the sword!

He had never seen such a bizarre and sinister sword aura before!

At such close range, there was no way to dodge, and the sword energy pierced through his chest without causing any real damage!

Just as Cui Zhenfeng was feeling smug, a sharp shriek that pierced his soul caused a sharp pain and dizziness in his head, as if countless vengeful spirits were roaring in his ears!

Before he could catch his breath, Cui Zhenfeng let out a scream that was even more piercing than Cui Zhenyue's!

He felt as if his soul was being torn apart by several venomous snakes!

A chilling force surged wildly through his consciousness, eroding his spirit and will!

Illusions filled my vision, ghostly wails filled my ears, and my internal energy instantly went out of control!

Cui Zhenfeng clutched his head, staggered backward, his face filled with extreme pain and fear, showing no trace of the ferocity of his sneak attack.

Within a few breaths, his eyes glazed over, and he collapsed limply to the ground, clearly his soul had been severely damaged and he had completely lost consciousness!

Another Core Formation Realm elder has been defeated!

"Hiss... Is this kid really at the Foundation Establishment stage?"

"That's right, he doesn't even have a pseudo-core in his dantian, he's definitely not at the Core Formation stage!"

"I've never heard of any Foundation Establishment cultivator possessing such combat power!"

Another round of whispers erupted from the audience.

The fact that such illogical combat power was revealed only made more people hope that Cui Yi could win!

Cui Yurou, who had conceded defeat early, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at her own cleverness.

Even those at the Core Formation stage are no match for him; if I were to go up there, I'd just get beaten up!

Who exactly are you?

As Cui Zhenshan gradually calmed down, he finally realized that there were probably many suspicious points about the identity of this so-called Lin family boy!

The Lin family is just a small clan, and they would never dare to openly challenge the Cui clan!

It's even more impossible for them to harbor such great hostility towards the clan!

Cui Yi chuckled twice, glanced at the crowd of onlookers, and then called out loudly, "Where is Cui Yue?"

Cui Yue, who was hiding in the crowd and watching the show, was stunned. He really didn't expect that Cui Yi would call him up.

In fact, from the moment Cui Yi appeared, Cui Yue and the two brothers, Cui Ji, who had gone to Cuijia Village to take action that day, recognized him.

However, each of the three had their own ulterior motives, and none of them spoke up to offer any advice.

Cui Yue didn't warn him because he wanted to see just how far Cui Yi could go with today's events.

The reason why the Cui brothers did not come forward to identify the individuals is also very simple.

They dare not.

After all, taking action without permission can be a big or small matter, and today the incident has escalated to such a great extent.

If old grievances are brought up again, they will inevitably be punished by their families.

Anyway, it's better to avoid trouble, so let's just pretend that day never happened.

But Cui Yue wasn't so lucky.

Being named in front of everyone, especially if you keep delaying your response, only makes it easier for others to suspect that you are the mole.

Left with no other choice, Cui Yue lightly touched the ground with his toes and landed steadily on the martial arts stage from the crowd.

"Young friend, it hasn't been long since we last met, and you've already broken through to such a level!"

On the high platform, Cui Zhenshan couldn't help but frown.

What does that mean?

Cui Yue recognized him; this was a clan steward, usually responsible for various miscellaneous matters, both large and small.

But why did I get to know this country bumpkin?

Knowing that he couldn't get away with this today, Cui Yue reacted quickly and bowed slightly to Cui Zhenshan.

"Clan leader, this person belongs to a branch of the third branch of the family!"

"At the same time, they are the last remaining bloodline of the third branch of the family in this world!"

These words shocked the entire Cui clan!

Turns out, this kid was one of us!

But why would a kind person choose such an important day to come and claim kinship, and make things so embarrassing?

The only explanation...

This guy didn't come back to claim his family!

They came back for revenge!

The vast majority of the Cui clan members were completely baffled by Cui Yue's so-called "three branches and one lineage".

The older clan elders, upon hearing the words "third branch," had a sudden change in expression, their eyes flashing with an indescribable complexity.

Cui Zhenshan's expression changed completely at that moment.

It wasn't anger, nor was it astonishment.

It was a guilty conscience welling up from the depths of his eyes!

Three rooms.

He knew those two words all too well.

Many years ago, there was a bloodless infighting within the clan. At that time, he was not yet the clan leader, and his father was still alive.

The third branch of the family produced many talented individuals, whose cultivation was outstanding among their peers and who were deeply loved and valued by the patriarch at the time.

There were even rumors circulating in the clan that the patriarch intended to pass the position of the next clan leader to this outstanding descendant of the third branch, bypassing the eldest son's branch.

That lineage.

They were once only a step away from the pinnacle of clan power!

And Cui Zhenshan's lineage was precisely the beneficiary of that silent power struggle!

Now, he is the patriarch of the Cui clan, wielding great power and holding a stable position.

But he never forgot that the third branch of the family still had bloodlines outside the family.

Chopping the grass does not remove the roots, but the spring breeze blows and regenerates.

He understood this principle better than anyone else.

But he clearly sent people to Cui Family Village, where the Cui family mansion was dilapidated and uninhabited!

He thought that the thorn had finally been removed.

But at this moment, Cui Yi was standing right in front of him!

What exactly is going on?

Not only was Cui Zhenshan a little confused, but Cui Yi was also a bit puzzled. Why did everyone's expressions look so strange?

Could there be something he doesn't know?

I don't know.

It was purely an accident.

Before Cui Zhenshan sent people to investigate the Cui family, the two Cui brothers had already gone ahead to stir up trouble.

This resulted in the two sides just passing each other by shortly after Cui Yi left and the men sent by Cui Zhenshan arrived at the Cui residence!

This unexpected coincidence also gave Cui Yi an excellent opportunity to develop!

After a moment of silence, Cui Zhenshan finally spoke slowly: "Since we are of the same clan, there is no need to be so tense."

"No matter what your purpose is in coming here anonymously today, you will eventually have to leave your name behind."

Cui Yi calmly raised his head and replied, "I am Cui Yi, and I will not change my name or surname."

This name made some people present gasp instantly!

"Cui...Cui what? Cui Yi?!"

"Wasn't that the Demon Suppression Division steward who killed the royal retainer in Qingshuifang named Cui Yi?"

"Holy crap! Now that you mention it, I remember! He's the one who stormed the execution ground!"

"No wonder! No wonder they were so audacious!"

A middle-aged rogue cultivator standing nearby suddenly realized, "Compared to the earth-shattering case he committed in the capital, today's scene seems rather conservative!"

"What a load of rubbish! He's a wanted criminal! Don't you understand what a wanted criminal is?"

"By blatantly exposing themselves in the capital of Great Yan, aren't they practically declaring war on the Great Yan Dynasty?"

"I remember he joined the Blood-Clad Sect. Could it be that the Blood-Clad Sect has sent people here as well?"

At this moment, Cui Zhenshan's face was no longer ashen, but deathly pale!
