"I’ve always known you’re exceptional, but I’m not just looking for someone exceptional. Exceptional people, though not common, can always be replaced. What I’m searching for is an irreplaceable powerhouse, someone who can conquer everything, whose intellect, determination, perseverance, and ambition are all honed to the ultimate pinnacle!"

"I thought what you’ve always wanted from me was complete submission and loyalty." Third Young Master Jun’s eyes were like glazed ceramics, cold and indifferent.

Su Feiman snorted haughtily, "Submission and loyalty are already plentiful among my subordinates. True powerhouses will never submit to anyone. The very words ’submission’ imply incapacity, limited power, lack of courage to challenge, and fear of surpassing oneself. Such people will never go far!"

"Since you know of my ambition, and that I will never submit to you, aren’t you afraid that I will expose your identity if you don’t kill me?" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Afraid? What’s there to fear?"

Su Feiman revealed a sly and sinister look, pointing at the documents on the table.

"From now on, you, along with the major criminals and underworld kingpin Sudian, will be in the same boat. Sign all these documents and affix your fingerprint, and you will become the second-in-command of a major criminal and underworld syndicate, the key figure controlling the group’s business. So tell me, what consequences will you face if you expose it?"

Third Young Master Jun’s pupils constricted, and the temperature on his face dropped sharply.

The godfather wants to drag him down into the mire, make him part of the core of the narcotics and underworld syndicate, and as the supposed second-in-command, he would be considered the greatest criminal second only to the godfather himself.

If the Su Family falls, what fate awaits him? Naturally, he would become a globally-wanted A-level fugitive, and if caught, execution by firearm is certain.

"King, from the day you saw me at twelve years old, you’ve had no way back. You must forever live in darkness. A person like you is only suited to exist in the darkness. Even without today’s event, your hands are stained with blood; thinking you could return to the right path is the greatest irony, and utterly impossible! Sign it, and live; don’t sign, and die. Choose one; I’m giving you the final chance."

The godfather’s words were big truths, and he had exerted his utmost effort to push Third Young Master Jun into the abyss, forever binding him to the narcotics and underworld syndicate, leaving no chance of redemption.

Third Young Master Jun, expressionless, walked over to the table and opened each document in turn, signing his name and pressing his fingerprint onto them.

He scanned the content of the documents; they were all highly confidential deals, each one carrying enough criminal charges for capital punishment. Hmm, as the second-in-command, the sum of all charges would probably warrant a hundred executions!

Su Feiman watched him sign and stamp the papers, a look of satisfaction spread across his face.

"Very good, now I have a business deal for you to handle. As second-in-command, if you can’t produce astonishing achievements, how can you impress the high-ranking members of my syndicate? You need to do something that will shock them and also establish your reputation in the world. After all, when I retire, it will be your turn! The second-in-command’s position isn’t just for show; you’ll need to ’teach’ those who obstruct the Su Family’s path."

Third Young Master Jun knew that the godfather was forcing him to commit illegal and criminal acts, ensuring that he could never break free from the Su Family’s grip.

"Fine!"

Third Young Master Jun agreed with an expressionless face.

After leaving, Su Feiman summoned Mason to inquire about the recent developments.

"I’ve never seen someone like him; his willpower is too strong. I’m afraid he won’t be easily controlled by you, the godfather." Mason expressed his concern; the past few days of surveillance had completely changed his worldview.
