Situ An was very adept at brainwashing others, first seizing the moral high ground, cloaking himself in the guise of civilization, to disguise his barbaric actions.
He was the vice president of the Hanhai Charity Association and one of the spokespersons for the Hanhai Commerce Association. He possessed immense power and ambition that could never be satisfied.
As the primary beneficiary of the rules, by day Situ An was a defender of the rules; by night, he sought to be the maker of them. At his core, he was a selfish madman.
It couldn't be denied he had many virtues, but he also had reasons that necessitated his death.
To him, protecting the city was only because the living there temporarily served his purposes, a bargaining chip for dealings with the Shadow World. Deep down, he was unconstrained by anything resembling morality, willing to sacrifice everything for a chance for himself.
"People like you are actually quite pitiable," said Gao Ming.
