Qing Ning was slightly taken aback. Why was it so inconceivable for Gu He to plea on behalf of the Liang Family?
Although Gu He was close to the Liang Family, was he not aware of his current situation?
He wanted to follow Zhou Yuan, not only without presenting a token of allegiance but also hoping that Zhou Yuan would spare the deeply resented Liang Family, which was truly baffling.
Zhou Yuan smiled faintly, "Master Gu, you must be joking. Although there's enmity between me and the Liang Family, it has not reached the point of extermination."
He was definitely going to wipe out the Liang Family, but he did not want to advertise that before he had gained enough strength.
Moreover, even if he didn't target the Liang Family, would they give up on targeting him?
The term 'Master Gu' that he used also showed dissatisfaction, as after all, Gu He was his defeated rival. Referring to him as 'master' wasn't much different from mockery.
