Qiu Long said coldly, "Instead of waiting to die, we might as well take the initiative and directly pledge allegiance to the Shangguan Family. The Shangguan Family has always wanted to take over Jincheng but, because of the Hao League, they could only take half of the city's market—they must be unwilling to settle for that.
If we pledge allegiance to the Shangguan Family, they will certainly support us in our fight against the Hao League.
With the support of the Shangguan Family, besides the Nangong Family, none of the others will be a problem.
After all, the other three of the four Gold Aristocratic Clans haven't made any moves."
"The question is, will the Shangguan Family wade into these troubled waters?" Qiu Qianren furrowed his brow and said, "You must have sensed it too, haven't you? We, as well as the other families, have all been used as pawns.
Yet, in this situation, we are not in control of our own fate.
They are not in control either.
