Chapter 738: Chapter 736 Emperor_1 Chapter 738: Chapter 736 Emperor_1 “First, I’d like to thank you both for your candor.”
After all, coming from a professional, Asao Sakura did a bit of psychological preparation and decided she couldn’t let Yasui Corp’s dignity be undermined.
Taking a deep breath, she first made it clear that she had full control over the actions taken by Fu Qian and the other person.
“I think this is a good development for both parties involved.”
“By ‘both parties,’ I’m specifically referring to Yasui and the two of you.”
She deliberately emphasized “yourselves,” as Asao Sakura clearly wanted Fu Qian and the other to have less of a collective consciousness.
“According to the information we have, your meeting with the Night Watchman was also informal, and we can even respect privacy by not inquiring about the specifics.”
Regarding the somewhat hopeless request, Asao Sakura decisively chose to advance by retreating.
“In fact, you could consider my visit today the same as if a friend were stopping by, so there’s no need to be tense.”
Neither Violetta nor Darcy voiced any objections, and Asao Sakura continued to speak confidently.
“Lady Violetta, how do you feel about Ye Island? One thing I can assure you is that there’s nothing any organization can offer on Ye Island that Yasui Corp can’t, negative or positive–including the Night Watchman.”
Dominating!
Asao Sakura’s meaning was clear to Fu Qian; she was applying both carrots and sticks, hoping that he and Su Gao would become turncoats and completely eliminate any hidden dangers.
But is it really appropriate to speak so bluntly?
“It seems like the pressure on Carlos’s side is indeed significant.”
The next moment, Fu Qian slowly commented.
…
The remark was somewhat abrupt, but Asao Sakura clearly understood.
“If you’ve done something wrong, it’s natural to feel a lot of pressure.”
After a moment’s hesitation, she did not attempt to cover up for Dr. Carlos, and even seemed to take some schadenfreude in his situation.
“This too demonstrates your shrewdness.”
“And given your good relationship with the Night Watchman, I believe you can make judgments about some matters and won’t be blindly optimistic.”
“Understood.”
“Another very important point is that, when looking at the entire Supernatural World, Yasui Corp is definitely the most transparent organization in its operations. I trust you are aware of this?”
“With Lady Violetta’s strength, the extent of your exemption rights would certainly be considerable.”
“That is indeed true.”
Fu Qian nodded.
Compared to those archaic families and organizations formed by bloodlines, Yasui Corp was far superior in efficiency.
Its core operating principles, such as the supremacy of strength, might seem overly simplistic and brutal, but to a certain extent, they are the best suited for thriving in this world, the optimal mode for absorbing nourishment.
The reason is simple: in this world, not all people are the same.
To some extent, the power levels of Transcendents are like the capital in his own world, accumulated in a unique form within an individual.
A company serves capital; this logic is much smoother.
“Actually, today we just visited an old friend and had some snacks.”
Although Asao Sakura’s roundabout talk hadn’t contained anything of substance so far, the sheer logic and emotional integration were worth three thousand.
Fu Qian didn’t mind giving her a bit of information as a concession to her.
“Delin, right? He’s a pretty good adventurer, and his strength is considerable.”
Asao Sakura found this quite gratifying and smiled as she commented.
“It’s a pity to me that he chose retirement instead of joining Yasui.”
“Oh, not afraid of repeating the Kawasaki Family’s mistakes?”
Fu Qian added casually.
…
That instant, Asao Sakura’s body visibly stiffened.
“Oh, what about Kawasaki?”
Although she tried her best to appear nonchalant, the effect was less than ideal.
“The Kawasaki that ended up tragically, of course. Their distant relatives didn’t fare too badly, though.”
Fu Qian tapped his fingers against the mask, speaking with a tone of casual conversation.
He really knew! How could that be?
For a moment, Asao Sakura’s mind was flooded with exclamation marks.
In her assessment, Fu Qian might have had dealings with the Night Watchman, but to call them old friends was likely a bit of a stretch.
However, the relationship between Delin’s retirement and the near-annihilation of the Kawasaki Family was a tightly guarded secret by the Night Watchman.
Even Yasui, the big player on Ye Island, only had speculations about this matter.
And yet this guy seemed so certain, even knowing the aftermath of the Kawasaki Family; it was utterly beyond her imagination how he achieved that.
Unless they really had an unusual relationship with the Night Watchman!
Could it be a trap set by the Night Watchman and the Siren because they were irritated by Yasui?
Yasui had been a bit arrogant over the years, but that would be an exaggeration!
And if that was really the case, why would he tell her such a highly confidential piece of information…
Asao Sakura, who always prided herself on understanding people’s hearts, felt an unprecedented sense of perplexity.
In fact, she wasn’t the only one who was shaken.
Although Su Gao next to her didn’t react as strongly as Asao Sakura, her breathing became even more subdued when Fu Qian said the name Kawasaki.
Fu Qian could understand her puzzlement; after all, from her perspective, he had no apparent reason to know this information.
Even if he had a good relationship with Chief Yuan, to investigate this data would still require a plausible reason, wouldn’t it?
Nevertheless, Su Gao’s ability to keep her composure was exceptional. Although she was confused, she managed to control her movements and expressions, preventing Asao Sakura from detecting anything unusual.
Regardless, divulging such information at this moment seemed to be more beneficial than harmful to the situation.
Not bad at all!
Fu Qian was very pleased with her performance.
Often, there’s no need to do anything special; merely refraining from action is enough.
But not everyone possesses such insight and self-control.
However, the forcefully composed Su Gao seemed different from her usual self, seemingly endowed with an almost non-human aura.
Her entire being was tranquil and crystalline, like a sculpture.
Although she looked completely different, he was inexplicably reminded of the first time he had seen her.
The sensation of human presence was diluted, her emotions all concealed.
Wait a second, this feeling… it didn’t just start now, but from the moment she sat down…
The very next moment, Fu Qian suddenly sensed something odd.
Turning his head without a sound, Fu Qian took in both Asao Sakura and Su Gao in his gaze.
The events that started from a while ago flashed quickly through his mind.
Asao Sakura entered, everything was normal, and had remained so until now…
After a brief exchange with her, he had gestured for Su Gao to come down. The peculiarity surrounding Su Gao seemed to have begun from then…

But the always perceptive Su Gao hadn’t noticed it this time…
Neither had he…
A sense of extreme danger surfaced in Fu Qian’s mind.
To influence a Demigod so silently that she was unaware, especially one as sensitive as she was…
Hadn’t it been said before that Yasui had only one Emperor?
