Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality

"In that case, I, this old guy, choose to die, to preserve some fresh power for the Elder Council."

The speaker was the Great Elder. Even Dongchuan Ichiro did not expect the Great Elder to make such a choice.

After all, not long ago, he had given the Great Elder some nice gifts, thinking the Great Elder would enjoy his later years with them.

"Since big brother has chosen sanctions, then I'll also choose to die."

The Second Elder took over the Great Elder's words, with an expression of calmness in the face of death.

The other two Elders breathed a long sigh of relief in their hearts. Since two Elders had already stepped forward, they now had a hope of survival.

"Although the Great Elder and Second Elder have made their choices, I cannot let you down."

Hearing Dongchuan Ichiro's words, the Third Elder and Fourth Elder exchanged glances, unable to hide the joy in their eyes.

But what they did not anticipate was seeing a fleeting shadow before their eyes, and the next second, feeling a coolness at their throats, with warm liquid flowing out from there.

They instinctively covered their throats, only to find their hands stained with bright red blood. They stared at Dongchuan Ichiro in disbelief, not understanding why they had to die, when it was the Great Elder and Second Elder who had chosen sanctions.

They tried hard to say something, but couldn't utter a word. In the end, their bodies went limp like deflating balloons and collapsed to the ground.

Faced with their deaths, Dongchuan Ichiro didn't even glance at them, maintaining a respectful smile as he looked at the Great Elder and Second Elder.

"The family still needs the contributions of the two Elders. Although this is somewhat cruel to you, I hope you will continue to advise me for the family's development."

Upon hearing Dongchuan Ichiro's words, the two Elders felt a temporary sense of relief.

"Considering that the two Elders are aging, I have decided to temporarily relieve you of your Elder positions after I assume the role of family leader, and have you join the Internal Affairs Department I will establish."

The two Elders felt a bit of a bitter smile in their hearts. Though they survived, they lost their Elder rights. However, this result was within their expectations.

Dongchuan Ichiro was already considered benevolent to spare their lives, and the so-called Internal Affairs Department, though newly mentioned, seemed to be like an advisory body without decision-making power.

No matter what, being able to witness the family's future prosperity still made them very satisfied.

The selection of the family heir and even the leader, which might have been bloody and violent, quietly resolved under Lin Beichen's schemes and iron-fisted suppression.

After arranging the family's internal personnel changes and follow-up matters, Dongchuan Ichiro went to a room exclusively for the family leader's use.

Inside the room, Lin Beichen was already seated in the host's position, waiting for Dongchuan Ichiro's arrival.

When Dongchuan Ichiro arrived, Lin Beichen poured him a cup of tea like a host, then made a gesture of invitation.

Facing Lin Beichen, Dongchuan Ichiro acted like an outsider seeking help, revealing the word "unease" in his every move.

"Don't forget, you are the master of Dongchuan Clan. Why are you more nervous than me, an outsider?"

Seeing Dongchuan Ichiro's appearance, Lin Beichen smiled slightly, not expecting that his initial desire to give him a bit of pressure might have been a bit too much.

But it was also good this way. After all, the subsequent matters required Dongchuan Ichiro's full cooperation, otherwise, there would be some unnecessary troubles.

Although Lin Beichen didn't take these troubles to heart, it was better to settle things as soon as possible since he still had a scenic spot left to visit.

Hearing Lin Beichen's words, Dongchuan Ichiro wore a smile on his face, though his heart was filled with unspeakable gloom.

He didn't even have the courage to complain to Lin Beichen face-to-face now, all he had left was endless grievance in his heart.

"I do want to act more relaxed, but I feel like I'm merely a puppet in your hands. I'm just the figurehead leader of the Dongchuan Clan."

In reality, Dongchuan Ichiro knew very well that after signing that agreement back then, his position as the leader of Dongchuan Clan was left with less than half its authority.

Moreover, the things he could control were merely some insignificant, gray areas existing between black and white, which even if the Dongchuan Clan abandoned completely, wouldn't have any impact.

"You should know what to do next. Once you fully become the family leader, I need to see you entirely control the Dongchuan Clan, the Dongchuan Group, and the Dongchuan Business Federation."

Hearing Lin Beichen's words, Dongchuan Ichiro showed a hint of difficulty on his face.

"If there are any difficulties, just say it while I'm still here."

Lin Beichen knew very well that after the inauguration ceremony of the family leader, Dongchuan Ichiro would likely not return to Dragon Country.

Given the power Dongchuan Ichiro now held, he might be stretched thin in handling some matters. His task now was to help him fully control the Dongchuan Clan.

As for whether Dongchuan Ichiro would defy his orders after gaining full control, Lin Beichen trusted that he would make the right choice.

"It's not a problem to control the Dongchuan Clan and Group, but there will be many opposing me managing the Dongchuan Business Federation."

Without any doubts, Dongchuan Ichiro revealed his worries to Lin Beichen.

The Dongchuan Business Federation was founded by the Dongchuan Clan's ancestor, with the clan holding 51% of the voting power.

Originally, the federation was in the Dongchuan Clan's pocket under such a premise, but an incompetent leader reduced it to 49% due to other clans' schemes.

Although the drop was just 2%, it gave the other two participating clans a chance to defy their will.

"Even under the previous leader, the two clans were unruly. Now with a youngster like me, they won't take me seriously at all."

Though Dongchuan Ichiro said this, his face showed no worry, making Lin Beichen laugh out loud.

"Since you react like this, you should have thought of a solution already. Such a simple matter shouldn't require me to intervene."

"If it's just dealing with those two clans, that's manageable."

At this, Dongchuan Ichiro's expression became somewhat hesitant.

"Say it directly, do you think I'll harm you?"

Lin Beichen gestured for him to speak his mind.

"Somehow, the two clans have roped in the National Sanitation and Defeat Sanitation organizations."

As soon as Dongchuan Ichiro finished speaking, Lin Beichen's eyes became sharply cold.

It was no wonder Lin Beichen had such a reaction; any Dragon Country person would hate these two organizations just by mentioning them.

The National Sanitation was self-explanatory, with internees being war criminals from Divine Light Country, still revered as heroes there.

Fewer knew about the Defeat Sanitation, which honored fallen soldiers of the White Eagle during the war, viewed as deities by many in Divine Light Country

Remembering this, Lin Beichen's clenched fists crackled.

"It's time to eradicate these two organizations."

Lin Beichen's tone was calm, but it carried an underlying tension.
