Chapter: 3537
And besides, Wan Chen's methods are so formidable. He became the head of the Leaf family, including Long Kong within, who will instantly lose all speaking rights.
In the future, they'll only be able to beg for food at Wan Chen's feet!
Old Master is feeling a bit uncomfortable now.
He's a clever person; how could he not know what Wan Chen meant just then?
Now that Wan Chen has returned to the Leaf family and defeated Long Kong on his own at Ling Shan, in this kind of situation, Wan Chen needs to take charge of the big and small affairs of the Leaf family, and no one dares to say a word. Not even I, Wan Chongquan myself.
But just as Wan Chen spoke those words, he was directly pulled down from his high horse. Wan Chongquan's heart felt bitter: "When Emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin released his military power back then, at least he treated everyone to a meal and offered them a cup of wine. How is it that when I'm here, one sentence can take away my position? Can't they even send me a formal invitation...?"
Wan Chongquan felt like he was hosting his son who had returned after many years, telling him to treat this place as his own home and not be too polite. But the son just found a servant and said, "From now on, this will be my own home. It's too big for me to manage, so you stay here and help me..."
This feeling was indeed hard to accept.
Although he had already made up his mind to pass on the Leaf family to Wan Chen in the future, he hoped that after this matter passes, he would gradually utilize Wan Chen, gradually cultivate him, and gradually transfer power to him while supporting him.
In this way, the transition of power would be smooth, and he could continue to sit at the head of the Leaf family for a few more years.
However, Wan Chongquan also knew that Wan Chen's abilities were so formidable that he didn't need his support to rise up.
Sighing in regret and frustration, Wan Chongquan was gradually coming around.
He knew that only Wan Chen could lead the Leaf family to new heights.
Before this goal, what significance would it have if he continued to occupy the position of family head?
What did he really want?
Don't be so stubborn, let Leaf Chen take over as soon as possible!
This way, I can also win Leaf Chen's favor!
After all, those ancient emperors who stepped down while still alive didn't live too comfortably. If I could make Leaf Chen feel good about me, even if I couldn't wield the power of the Leaf family in the future, I'd at least be a decent second-in-command like a lucky charm.
Thinking this, Wan Chongquan's heart finally relaxed a lot.
However, before he could let his expression match his mood, Wan Chongquan noticed that his father was looking rather gloomy and immediately knew that his old man must have had an opinion about Leaf Chen.
So, he quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Dad! Leaf Chen is planning to usurp the throne! When are we going to let him take over our family's affairs? This isn't just a matter of taking away your authority!"
Wan Chongquan turned his face around, his eyes about to pop out as he glared at him. A slap came directly across his cheek!
Slap! The sound was loud and direct, and Wan Chongquan's eyes went black from the shock.
At this moment, all he could hear was his old man's stern shout: "You scoundrel! How dare you stir up trouble between me and Chen? What's your motive?! I'll put my foot down right now! All of you Leaf family descendants listen carefully: the position of family head will henceforth belong to Chen!"
Before anyone could react, Wan Chongquan's father thundered, "It used to be this way, but it's not like that anymore!" JrNovels.com
