Know Yourself in the Dragon World

Chapter 267: Smart People and Unfortunate People

The five family heads and Uesugi Yue left the meeting room together.

Han Qiu and Tachibana Masamune stared at each other across the conference table. The table was empty, but it was filled with the age gap between them.

"Chisheng, you should go out too." Tachibana Masamune said, "Since we are partners, we should have enough trust."

"Genju-kun, please rest assured that I won't do anything to Mr. Masamune," Han Qiu assured.

Yuan Zhisheng didn't say anything, just quietly stepped out and closed the door for the two of them.

The sound of the wind continues, and there is only the sound of the wind.

The two were silent for a long time.

It was Han Qiu who spoke first: "You are great, but Herzog is even more great."

He had a playful smile.

Tachibana Masamune understood this smile and asked, "Do you hate Herzog?"

"Yes, many people hate him, including you, right, Bondarev."

"Hehehe." Tachibana Masamune laughed and started coughing.

"You should take care of your health so that you can live to see Herzog die," said Han Qiu.

"Don't worry, I will definitely live to that time," said Masamune Tachibana.

In a conversation between two smart people, Tachibana Masamune knew that Han Qiu knew the truth.

Not only do you know the truth, you also know your own lies.

He didn't dwell on how Han Qiu knew it. There was nothing to investigate about the abilities of dragons.

But he was curious about why Han Qiu did what he did.

"Chisheng told me about what you said. You said that it was not Herzog who was behind the situation in Japan, but someone was using Herzog to awaken the Dragon King?" asked Masamune Tachibana.

"Yes, didn't you know?"

"I have a guess, but I dare not confirm it."

"Herzog should have guessed it, he is very smart." Han Qiu smiled and said, "But this does not prevent Herzog from continuing his plan."

"In other words, even if Herzog becomes a dragon, he will still have to face death?"

"Maybe, I don't know their specific plans."

"It turns out there is such a situation. Herzog is just a part of the plan." Tachibana Masamune said in a deep voice.

"Not really." Han Qiu said, "Maybe he just wanted Herzog to use the Lenin to revive the White King. I didn't expect Herzog to be so crazy as to usurp the throne."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm not sure." Han Qiu almost revealed his cards. "I'm not capable enough to directly pull out the person behind the scenes, so I can only... keep an eye on Herzog."

"You want more than just Herzog's life, right?"

"I also want Herzog's research results on dragons, and to kill the White King once and for all. The more Dragon Kings awaken, the more disadvantageous it will be for me."

"Let me think about it." After pondering for a while, Tachibana Masamune said, "If I were in your position, the fundamental reason for killing the White King would only be... Ragnarok."

“So you’ve heard of it, too.”

"The Snake Eight Family was the Japanese branch for a long time."

"That's right. The more dragons that are kicked out, the greater the chance that I can survive to the end."

"What about the half-bloods?"

"I don't know how many hybrids aspire to become gods. Dragons are the perfect creatures. Right, Bondarev?"

"Thank you for telling me this." Tachibana Masamune stood up shakily, "We'll talk again when we have a chance."

"There will be a chance, but not here." Han Qiu sneered: "If I were Herzog, I would run away and escape from this plan, because only death is waiting for him."

"If I were him, I would just try to make things go off the original plan." Tachibana Masamune said: "You don't understand Herzog's obsession with dragons."

"I think you are wrong." said Han Qiu.

"I also hope I'm wrong." said Tachibana Masamune.

……

The skyline began to turn white, and the dawn was revealed in the light of the cigarette lit by Yuan Zhisheng.

Han Qiu's men have withdrawn, and the nearby streets have returned to peace.

What a frustrating night.

The invasion of the fierce ghosts caused a lot of casualties. The saddest thing is that everyone is thankful that it was just casualties and nothing else was involved.

Gen Chisei himself almost died in the Tama River and met his brother who had been dead for many years.

That is an evil ghost that has come back to life from the dead, an extremely evil ghost that can defeat himself as the emperor.

Although Han Qiu's cooperation had a good outcome, the process made the Sheqi Eight Clans feel a little embarrassed.

The managers of the underworld are treated in an underworld way by others.

More than fifty people were blocking the entrance of Genji Heavy Industries, holding swords. If anything happened to Han Qiu, it would be another fierce battle.

Han Qiu's courage and confidence to attend the meeting alone really impressed Yuan Zhisheng.

"Although the emperor's body is strong enough to ignore the damage caused by nicotine." Han Qiu walked onto the rooftop, "I still want to advise you to quit smoking if you can."

"Didn't you go back?" Yuan Zhisheng was a little surprised.

I thought Han Qiu left with Jörmungandr and the others.

"Don't worry. I haven't done what I promised you yet. I am a man of my word... No, I am a dragon that keeps its word. Living as a human for too long, it is easy to forget whether I am a human or a dragon." Han Qiu shook his head and smiled, then walked to Yuan Zhisheng's side. "The scenery is beautiful, and the location of Genji Heavy Industries is very well chosen."

"When I can't sleep, I come here to watch the sunrise." Yuan Zhisheng said, "Or take Crow and the others to the beach."

Yuan Zhisheng threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it twice, then wanted to light another one.

As he took out the lighter, Han Qiu snapped his fingers.

The cigarette was lit.

"The more words the better." Yuan Zhisheng took a deep breath.

"It's OK. I use it to make fire occasionally." Han Qiu stared at the slowly rising sun. "Do you still want to know the answer to the matter of Yuan Zhinv?"

"think."

"It might be painful for you."

"If I don't understand, I will be more miserable. Instead of being chased by the past, I should take the initiative to find that past."

Yuan Zhisheng didn't know that he was far from being as indifferent as he imagined.

Han Qiu felt sorry for such tortoises.

"To a certain extent, you did kill your brother at that time."

Han Qiu began to tell the story of the past, and Yuan Zhisheng listened attentively, even forgetting the cigarette at his fingertips.

"After you left that town, the 'King General' came looking for you. The information about Tachibana Masamune is incomplete. Minamoto no Chitose is not a demon. He is an emperor, just like you. This cannot be blamed on Tachibana Masamune. There was no decent testing technology at that time, so he could only rely on your performance. It's normal. I heard that he was very thin and weak when he was a child, and his physical fitness was ridiculously poor."

"Compared to you, he doesn't look like an emperor at all."

"Tachibana Masamune had just integrated the underworld, and he didn't have the energy and ability to train two people. If he had to choose only one, you would be the best candidate, and he also had to take care of Eri. Unfortunately, by the time he wanted you to bring Genji over, he had already killed people and done a lot of things that only a fool would do."

As Han Qiu spoke, the shock in Yuan Zhisheng's eyes became more and more obvious.

"When you were away from the town, the 'king general' came looking for you. If Tachibana Masamune had taken you away a year or two later, maybe now there would be two of you brothers among the fierce demons instead of just your brother."

"The 'Oujiang' tricked your brother into drinking dragon blood, pushing him onto the path of a demon. An emperor who became a demon, remember the legendary Susanoo?"

"That's probably what happened. The 'Wang Jiang' urged you to kill your brother. The 'Wang Jiang' also saved your brother and trained him to become the 'Dragon King' of the fierce ghosts."
