"Young Master Gu," Liu Xiong began, following Jiang Chen's plan, "the Heavenly Gu Society was created to protect you."
"Anyone who stands in your way will become our target. If the You Clan dares to attack, we will destroy them without hesitation."
"The Gan and Cai Clans, who secretly try to use this chaos for their gain, deserve the same fate!"
"Although you saw me retreat earlier, it was only a trick. I wanted to lure the You, Gan, and Cai Clans into fighting each other. When the time is right, we will take them all down at once," he said with confidence, his words sounding entirely believable.
For someone like Liu Xiong, who had lived many years as a cultivator, pretending to play a role was easy.
"Oh?" Gu Ran's eyes lit up with understanding. "That explains why you, who seemed so confident before, suddenly pulled back!" He couldn't help feeling slightly annoyed.
