As Matsushita Hwangtian's cultivation base improved, his desires inflated, giving rise to his outstretched reach. Upon seeing Japan's entertainnt industry thriving, he decided to delve into the entertainnt industry of Japan's Kyoto,
Yet the entertainnt industry of Japan's Kyoto has always been controlled by the Wang Family, and Wang Xiaoqiang's formidable reputation reverberated there, naturally deterring anyone from daring to vie for control.
Matsushita Hwangtian dispatched spies and agents to gather intelligence from multiple sources, eventually obtaining reliable information that Wang Xiaoqiang had gone to a higher plane and had been absent over the years, likely never to return.
Upon receiving such news, Matsushita Hwangtian's courage swelled. Moreover, once, a wayward mber of the Matsushita Clan t with misfortune at a venue within the Wang Family's domain, dying there amidst a brawl. Due to dying in such a manner, the Matsushita Clan gained nothing, including an apology or compensation.
This infuriated Matsushita Hwangtian, prompting him to target the Wang Family's enterprises, although every aspect of their operations was impeccably flawless, leaving no room for infiltration, necessitating the use of despicable thods.
Thus arose the incidents of Master Chenguang using ghosts to harm Wang Rui and Matsushita Taro employing Heart-Attack Technique to confuse Wang Yi.
In truth, Matsushita Hwangtian's actions were risky moves, or rather a gamble,
Betting on Wang Xiaoqiang not returning.
If Wang Xiaoqiang didn't return, then his gamble paid off.
Success in this gamble wouldn't just entail his control over Japan's Kyoto entertainnt industry; eventually, the Wang Family's enterprises in Hong Kong and even globally would be insidiously devoured and assimilated by the Matsushita Clan through various cunning and severe ans,
By then, the Matsushita Clan's finances would soar, and influence would burgeon, not only securing their status as Japan's leading family but perhaps becoming a global powerhouse, standing proudly against the world.
However, every gamble has its outco,
In the end, Matsushita Hwangtian lost the bet,
Losing the bet led to the current terrifying predicant.
After receiving Tanimoto Ichiro's call, Matsushita Hwangtian was profoundly terrified. Truthfully, he dared not face Wang Xiaoqiang; he thought of fleeing, yet understood fully that, given Wang Xiaoqiang's imnse divine skills, escape was futile,
Moreover, fleeing would invite Wang Xiaoqiang's vengeance upon the Matsushita Clan. Angrying Wang Xiaoqiang would result in a calamity leading to extermination of the clan, as these matters transcended ordinary affairs, beyond the purview of mundane laws.
A Great Immortal like Wang Xiaoqiang could obliterate the Matsushita Clan with a re gesture. Even if the law was defied, and governntal forces were mobilized, would the governnt resort to deploying an atomic bomb against him? Even if they did, it might not harm him at all.
For the sake of the family, he had to et Wang Xiaoqiang.
Not only did he need to go, but he dared not delay, and within half an hour, Matsushita Hwangtian's car slowly drove into the villa.
Matsushita Hwangtian was accompanied by two attendants, both experts in ninjutsu, yet utterly ineffectual; thus, after getting off the car, Matsushita Hwangtian instructed the attendants to stay put, proceeding alone.
He wore a very simple kimono, already over seventy years in age, yet appearing vigorous, resembling a man in his fifties, as he was a cultivator.
While Matsushita Hwangtian displayed composure, sweat ford on his palms and forehead, his heart raced, hands trembled, contemplating various consequences, yet never fathoming how Wang Xiaoqiang would punish him.
He approached the villa entrance, and upon seeing Wang Xiaoqiang inside, promptly knelt with a thud, gradually inching inside on his knees, deeply bowing to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Senior above, the junior offers a deep bow."
Matsushita Hwangtian, indeed assuming a sinner's stance, crawled into the drawing room on his knees, observing cultivation realm courtesies to Wang Xiaoqiang; a seventy-year-old addressing himself as a junior to a thirty-sothing Wang Xiaoqiang, called senior.
Witnessing this scene, Wang Yi felt profoundly shaken. Was this the strongman he always idolized? Was this the cultivator he revered as divine? Was this the family head of Japan's strongest Matsushita Clan, Matsushita Hwangtian?
How had he beco so pitiful today, entering on his knees, self-designating as a junior before his father?
Even with a guilty status, this degree of abject degradation and slavish submission seed unwarranted, his trepidation rather excessive, wasn't it?
With puzzled eyes retreating from Matsushita Hwangtian, shifting focus to his father, Wang Yi's eyes shone brightly, overflowing with excitent; at that mont, his father appeared godlike.
"Matsushita Hwangtian, you certainly are an unmitigated gambler, aren't you?" Wang Xiaoqiang, reclining on the sofa, gazed down at the kneeling Matsushita Hwangtian, his initial words being an amicable smile rather than an accusation.
Yet such a cordial smile did not alleviate Matsushita Hwangtian's fear; rather, his dread intensified because he perceived Wang Xiaoqiang's words as layered. He didn't dispute, truthfully admitting, "Indeed, Senior, your Eyes of Golden Fla read my mind instantly. I truly gambled, but ultimately lost, willing to abide by the loss and accept punishnt from Senior."
"Hmm, at least you're self-aware." Wang Xiaoqiang smiled sarcastically, swept him with a divine sense, his expression involuntarily darkening, "Humph, that Matsushita Taro, do you think he should die?"
"That is my direct grandson, who committed grave wrongs, deserving of his fate, his death not to be regretted," Matsushita Hwangtian confessed sorrowfully.
"Even in his final monts, he dared deceive ; soone like this, killing him a hundred tis wouldn't appease," Wang Xiaoqiang continued, "He conveyed to you're at the Seventh Layer of Qi Refining, about to break through to the Eight Layers..."
"That wicked son was speaking nonsense. This junior's cultivation base is rely at the Sixth Layer of Qi Refining," Matsushita Hwangtian retorted angrily.
Wang Xiaoqiang waved his hand dismissively, "Enough, discussing a deceased person's words brings misfortune; now, let's discuss you..."
Upon hearing this, Matsushita Hwangtian feared intensely, incessantly kowtowing, "The junior is guilty, but kindly asks Senior for one more chance."
"Alright, I'll give you one chance," Wang Xiaoqiang said.
Thinking Wang Xiaoqiang might truly pardon him, Matsushita Hwangtian felt ecstatic, exclaiming, "Thank you, Senior, your heart is truly akin to a Bodhisattva's."
"Hmm, Earth is a rule-of-law society; I don't wish to initiate a massacre. Now, I have two conditions; if you agree, not only will you evade death, but your family will be spared,"
Upon hearing this, Matsushita Hwangtian felt discouraged, secretly ridiculing his naivety, understanding despite having incurred such wrath from Wang Xiaoqiang, he couldn't expect leniency.
Nonetheless, not demanding his life or slaughtering his family was a trendous rcy. Hastily responding, "Yes, yes, I agree to any conditions."
"Mind you, this is your decision; I never forced you," Wang Xiaoqiang smiled, saying, "Listen, the first condition is transferring your Sixth Layer of Qi Refining cultivation base to my son Wang Yi; the second condition is transferring all Matsushita family assets into my na,"
"Wh-what? Th-this is impossible..." Matsushita Hwangtian shook his head vigorously at the first condition; for a cultivator, cultivation base represented life, even surpassing life's worth, especially having struggled for decades achieving his mastery, transferring it to others equaled killing him,
And the second condition was even harder to accept; the Matsushita family's ancestral enterprises, built over centuries with countless generations' effort, handed over just like that left him feeling worse than physical harm.
