'Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for me to pass Ang Xiao's Liu Ying's trial. If that old bastard doesn't let me through, I'll never get the opportunity from this stage.'
So he had to find an alternative.
This led to Lü Yang's strategic retreat, allowing the World Honored One's Avatar to take control. To put it bluntly, it was a plan to set a tiger on a wolf, forcing Ang Xiao to concede.
Of course, this plan was not without its uncertainties.
For instance, the appearance of Sichou's Residual Thought. Although Lü Yang had suspected its existence, he had no proof. Forcing this hidden threat out into the open was an unexpected bonus.
'Now, let's see what the old bastard chooses.'
That being said, there wasn't much suspense. Lü Yang judged others by his own standards and knew that Ang Xiao's Liu Ying would ultimately make the correct choice.
He just needed a little help.
