Know Yourself in the Dragon World

Chapter 191 Transfer of Power

"Chisheng, I'm sorry, I've been hiding this from you. When you were a teenager, I had to integrate the underworld, so I didn't have much energy to take care of you. And because the underworld was full of blood and gore, it was too unsafe to take you and your brother with me." Tachibana Masamune kept apologizing to Chisheng: "I know all this is too hard for you to accept. I wanted to hand over the position of the head of the family to you when the time was right, and tell you the truth at the same time. I wanted to try to do more things to make it easier for you to take the position. Now it seems, I'm sorry, Chisheng, I don't have that much time to do the things I planned, I'm old."

The words "I'm old" made Yuan Zhisheng's heart tremble.

The words "you and your brother" reminded Yuan Zhisheng of the sad past.

Rather than an apology from Masamune Tachibana, it would be more accurate to say that this was a plea for a transfer of power.

He would hand the torch of the patriarch back to Amaterasu of the Snake Eight Clan, in front of the former Shadow Emperor.

"Dad..." Genji shook his head, "You don't have to be like this. No matter what, you are now the head of the Snake Eight Families, Tachibana Masamune, Mr. Masamune."

What Gen Chisei said was from his heart. He believed that not only he would say so, but the heads of the five outer families would also recognize Tachibana Masamune's identity.

Even if one does not recognize Tachibana Masamune's bloodline, one will still recognize his contribution to the Eight Clans of Snake.

If you need a legitimate inheritance, Yuan Zhisheng is willing to take over the position of the head of the family, but the specific management rights will still be handed over to his father.

He was the head of the Minamoto family with the title of "head of the family", and Tachibana Masamune was the outsider who held the power of "head of the family".

Although this idea is childish and naive, Minamoto no Chisei trusts Tachibana Masamune.

The Eight Snake Families also trusted Tachibana Masamune.

The Eight Clans of Sheqi believe in righteousness and will never treat their benefactors unfairly.

This is their righteousness. They can live for it and die for it.

Tachibana Masamune burst into tears for a moment, but deliberately kept a distance from Minamoto Chisei.

His story has come to an end, and it began the moment this former movie king stepped into Genji Heavy Industries.

He looked more relaxed than ever before, yet more unwilling than ever before.

"Okay." Uesugi Yue's eyes swept across Tachibana Masamune's face. He had been paying attention to this old man who did not belong to Japan, but he only saw the true feelings revealed. "It's good to clarify this matter. I only care about one thing. Who are the other three children besides him?"

Yuan Zhisheng said unhappily: "I think you need to explain your situation clearly. Someone is using you as a gun to target our family."

As for his biological father, whether Yuan Zhisheng admits it or not, this is a fact.

But the fact does not mean that Uesugi Yue can ignore the situation and interests of the Sheqi Eight Families.

Tachibana Masamune deliberately concealed these things, and Uesugi Yue came to expose them.

And Tachibana Masamune is the head of the family, and Uesugi Yue is targeting the head of the family.

In essence, this is an attack on the family.

"My business?" Uesugi Yue said casually, "I have been a movie star for a few years and sold ramen for more than 60 years."

"What I'm asking is, who asked you to come here?" Yuan Zhisheng asked coldly.

"I told you that the man who claimed to be Bondarev was a fake, based on Tachibana Masamune's description and what I saw." Uesugi Yue said, "The man you asked me that day was the man who claimed to be Bondarev. He pestered me many times. The first time he told me that I had three children, he kept trying to get me to believe it."

Yuan Zhisheng was stunned, "I went to your place to check on Hirano Feng."

"I don't know his name. He only told me that his name was Bondarev. But he came to see me twice that day, with different faces, but I recognized his scent."

Tachibana Masamune also realized the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly pressed the button on the table and ordered: "Kaguya, pull up the photo of Hirano Kaede and the surveillance video I asked you to check that day."

The big screen lit up and Kaede Hirano's photo was enlarged.

Uesugi Yue said to Minamoto Chisei, "It was him who left me before you came."

Next is the video footage of that day, where 'Bondarev' was looking at the camera in front of the gate of Genji Heavy Industries, and Tachibana Masamune froze the video at this moment.

Uesugi Yue nodded again, "That's him. He used this face to find me before. I don't know the person in the video, but I'm sure that the guy who found me is just wearing two faces. He is actually the same person."

Things became delicate. Before this, Gen Chisei had already confirmed that Hirano Kaede was good at disguise.

"Hirano Kaede disguised herself as Bondarev to come to you and told you that Gene had successfully bred three children through in vitro fertilization technology. Is that true?" Yuan Zhisheng confirmed again.

"Yes, that's all I know, but I don't know whether he is Bondarev or Hirano Kaede." Uesugi Yue replied.

"Dad...this Hirano Kaede..." Gen Chisheng was completely unsure of the situation.

After thinking for a long time, Tachibana Masamune said, "Hirano Kaede... I never thought he was behind all this. How did he know all this? The Jiude family couldn't possibly know. His age doesn't have anything to do with that period of history. Could it be... that there are other people who know about those past events?"

Uesugi Yue didn't care about these things. He had already figured out what he wanted to know.

Three children, I have three children of my own.

The joy in his heart made him willing to wait for a while, but the fate of the royal blood made him worry about the children.

He didn't know how to deal with the follow-up matters.

Take the children away from their fate, live an ordinary life with yourself, and sell ramen?

They are not children. The one in front of us is in the prime of youth. From his words, we can feel that he is very stubborn.

He stubbornly cared about the eight Sheqi families and stubbornly shouldered the responsibility and destiny of the emperor.

Come to think of it, I am terribly stubborn.

Quite like my own.

"Impossible." Tachibana Masamune's pupils shrank, and he suddenly became terrified. "Impossible, those past events have long been buried by me with Herzog's death, unless... unless..."

"Dad." Minamoto Chisei stepped forward to comfort Tachibana Masamune.

"Herzog is not dead?" Tachibana Masamune raised this possibility, which was also his own question.

Uesugi Yue said: "You can survive a heart attack and an explosion, so how can you be sure that he is dead?"

Tachibana Masamune explained: "My heart is different from that of ordinary people. It is on the right side."

He unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a scar on his left chest, which was clearly a fatal knife wound.

"I checked at that time and he was indeed dead and sank into the deep sea. How could he have a chance of survival?" Tachibana Masamune couldn't understand.

The only possible explanation for this incident was rejected by himself.

"These things need to be investigated carefully, Dad," said Yuan Zhisheng.

"Chisheng, just call me Mr. Masamune. And don't mention the last name 'Tachibana' anymore," Tachibana Masamune informed him.

Just as Minamoto Chisheng was about to open his mouth, Tachibana Masamune raised his hand and said, "Chisheng, there is no need to say more. Now that things have come to this, if you still feel that I have a debt of gratitude towards you for educating you, then you should take up the role of the head of the family. As for how I should deal with this, it is up to you and the other family heads to weigh the matter."

The grace of upbringing. When Uesugi Yue heard the word, he looked away.

While he was struggling with how to deal with the follow-up process, he completely forgot one thing, which was whether the three children recognized him.

Tachibana Masamune, or Bondarev, did so much for his three children and the Snake Eight Families, but what did he do for himself?
