As the group explained, Mo Qi finally understood what was going on.
To put it bluntly, the Gu, Qin, He, and Feng Families, those four shit-stirrers, had either bribed or threatened these pairs into coming to assassinate him.
The ridiculous part was, they claimed to be prestigious and righteous, yet even their own people didn't trust their credibility, leading these assassins to risk everything and seek refuge with him instead.
No wonder Xiao Zhang always liked to call them hypocrites.
"So, you want me to take in the Song Family and act as your protector, so you won't be wiped out by the Feng Family." Mo Qi looked at Song Yan and Song Run.
Then his gaze shifted to He Shan and He Hai.
"You two want my help rescuing your clansmen."
"And you, Zhang Chao and Li Si—one for his mother, the other for his woman—also have a favor to ask of me."
"But aside from this so-called repayment of serving me as slaves and servants, you're of no other use. Do you think I'm short on underlings?"
