542 Chapter 542

"I don't understand 22nd dog, why are you so stupid and rebellious! Do you think I don't dare to kill you guys!?

Or do you think that I will give everything to you, fall on my knees and apologize to you since there is still a Cui Family behind you!?

You aren't that stupid are you!?"

With that said, Cui Xie intentionally stopped the pain for that Elder, and let him some time to regain his breath and prepare an answer.

That Elder didn't disappoint him though, as quickly he managed to recollect a bit himself to talk in a condescending manner once again.

"Heheheh~! Cui Xie do you truly dare to kill us!? If you do…"

Despite everything, this guy and the rest didn't believe that Cui Xie could actually kill them. As long as they returned to the Cui Family they would easily deal with him.

A poor bastard little brat would never be able to contend with them, that was what they were thinking, and Cui Xie understood this perfectly.

If he didn't have Eric to help him from behind with his strength and means, he might not have dared to do something like this for real.

But now!?

Now it was just a matter of moment and whim, as he didn't even let the poor guy finish his words before he actually snapped his fingers and the 'brain-eating worm' got to action.

"AARRRGGGHHHHH~! BASTARDDDDD YOOUUUUUU REAALLLLYYYY DAAAARRREEEE~!?"

"What a joke do you think I don't dare after doing all this!?

After what happened today I just need to take those that are truly obedient to me and say that the rest died due to the attack of some unknown experts on the way back.

Who would believe that a weak Realm 2 little guy like me, dared and managed to kill expert Elders like you on the 4 Realm and above!

Let me make this clear though, I just need three of you to make it alive tonight, you can personally think and decide who will be the lucky guys!

You have only 5 minutes to think about this!"

"What!?"

All the elders couldn't believe their ears, as what they heard was just too much. It was no different from punishing half of them to die.

The moment that Cui Xie finished his words, coincidentally or not, was the moment that the 22nd Elder actually gave his last breath and died.

There was no escape for the poor him, there was nothing he could do about it. He died in a horrendous way, as blood started leaking from all the orifices on his head, and who knows on other parts as well.

After all, his body command center had disappeared, leaving the body in its natural reaction, without stabilizing and balancing anything.

Seeing this happen the other Elders couldn't believe their eyes, and their senses, as they finally started fearing Cui Xie for real.

"De-demon…"

One of the Elders was so terrified that he couldn't control his mouth from saying something like that, as Cui Xie actually smiled at the old man, and said,

"Old thing, I don't think you have the right to call me like that! After all, just how much more have you done in the name of the Cui Family, pretending that you were making justice!?

How many lives have you and your descendants spoiled, and destroyed, just because you have the surname Cui!

Do you think that just carrying that surname makes you right and an angel, while the rest of the worlds are bandits and demons!?

You shouldn't be that delusional, right!?"

Even the 17th Elder who was supposed to be the one facing Cui Xie the most couldn't help but shiver at those words, and voice.

It was only now that a demon-like Cui Xie had appeared in front of them, and was asking account of their actions, with their life on the line that they truly started to think about this.

Well, not all of them were in the same line of thought, as the one to have called Cui Xie a demon a moment ago, immediately started protecting himself and his actions,

"Cui Xie you are no Saint either, you are a scum who dares to even act like this against your Elders and anger the Heavens!

Furthermore, whatever we have done it has been for our Cui Family, even if someone has to die, even if you have to die, it should be an honor for you to die for my Cui Family!"

"Heheheheh~! What strong and righteous words Elder Cui, it truly puts this junior to shame! Then why don't you just go ahead and show the path of honor to this junior!"

'AAARRRGGGHHHHHHH~!'

Before the guy could even say another word he ended up in the same condition as the Elder before him, dying an unwilled death.

It wasn't like Cui Xie was killing these guys because he wanted to take revenge for their words and little stupid actions against him.

No! He was showing his determination and strength to the rest, he was telling them through his actions, either obey or die! I don't care about your choice that much.

How could these old fogies not understand Cui Xie's message? In fact, what they were the most shocked about was how could someone like Cui Xie exist.

Ruthless and decisive!

These were two necessary and compulsory traits for a true leader. No matter how much one tried to lead through the carrot, there would always be traitors and bastards who needed the stick.

In a short amount of time, two Elders of the Cui Family were down, and now there were only two to go, as Cui Xie said he would keep three.

But everything came to a sudden stalemate, as these guys were now caught in a dilemma between their own lives, and those of their fellow family members.

This was a true test of the greed to live, and the values that they claimed to have. Family or their own lives, the decision was surely difficult.

"I don't want to waste much time here gentlemen, just make a choice, otherwise I will be forced to make it for you!"

"Cui Xie…"

The one to speak this time was none other than the 17th Elder, who after getting everyone's attention, stopped for a moment before he said,

"This old man would like to apologize for any misgiving and trouble he has caused, and hope that Young Master Cui Xie will be magnanimous to forgive him and accept him to serve by your side!"

It wasn't only those other Elders, even Cui Xie himself couldn't help but get surprised and shocked by what he just heard.

Even though he had expected something like this, it was still just too startling to actually witness it. This old man seemed to have forgotten about face, shame, and family, by choosing himself.

"Hoho~! 17th Dog is truly sharp and shrewd! Very well, this Young Master will accept you as long as you bark like a dog!"

"This…"

"Don't tell me that you don't want to! Were your words just empty shit to fool me!? It seems like you have decided to die."

"No, no, no! I will bark, I will bark! Woof…, woof…, woof…"

Under the shocked and stunned eyes of the remaining Elders, the 17th Elder started barking like a little dog shamelessly.

"Haahahah~! Yes, this is exactly what I wanted, you finally understand your position and standing! Now, what about you other guys!?"

Now that even the 17th Elder had actually fallen, how could the rest still stand, as 3 of them immediately got on their knees pleading and begging,

"Young Master Xie this dog will be forever obedient and loyal to you! If you say east we won't dare to look west, and if you say die we won't dare to live!" x3

Hearing their words Cui Xie didn't seem to have much of a reaction, as he was already expecting it, as he turned to the last one and said,

"What about you!?"

"Haiz~! I have grown too old and muddleheaded! I tried to make wealth by bullying people of my own family, and a junior at that!

I don't know when I fell so low, or when the Cui Family turned so evil and worthless, but I don't think that I can play this role anymore.

So, I would better choose to die here and now! At least like this, I will die as a ghost of the Cui Family, whether that is a good thing or a bad thing!"

"Hmph~! Presumptuous!" x4

While that Elder said those words the rest looked at him like he was a delirious idiot. He surely spoke big words, but he was just one more among them.

After all, if a dog joined a wolf's pack he would behave and act like a wolf! The same thing had happened to this guy who now talked like he was a pure old man who had seen the meaning of life.

"Whoa~! Finally someone with a bit of backbone! This junior truly appreciates your thoughts, and words Elder.

For that reason, I want you even more, why don't you accept to obey me, and I will make you the head of this group.

You will help me handle them, and everything else! I promise you benefits as long as you stay loyal and work hard!"

"Hehe~! Nephew Cui Xie do you think I said those words to benefit from you!? You don't have to convince me, today I have chosen death!"

"Are you saying that I can't change your mind Elder!?"

"Yes, you can't!"

"Very well then go on!"
