Gu Zhan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Since even Wan Yan has been used as your pawn, why did Lord Wu tell me so much? If Wan Yan can be manipulated, then it's not a problem to scheme against me, is it?"
Wu Yang spoke slowly, "There are two reasons for telling Lord Gu so much. First, I hope to form an alliance with someone of Lord Gu's potential. I believe, given your talent, you will go further than any of us.
If Lord Gu is willing to join forces, our six families will sincerely support you. Should a new dynasty rise, Lord Gu, you will be among the outstanding ones, and our investment will surely yield a hundredfold return."
Second, it's also because I know Lord Gu's youth and arrogance and hope you will recognize reality—right now, you have no other option. We have plotted this game for a long time. Wan Yan and Yang Yuzhi have both lost. Lord Gu, you would do well to consider carefully before making your move."
