Yang Xiao was momentarily taken aback, then burst into laughter, exclaiming,
"Xie Jun, I didn't expect you to have such a broad mind, willing to let bygones be bygones and accept me as your little brother. I must say, you've earned my respect."
"Hehe, Yang Xiao, in these times of supreme chaos, with numerous heroes emerging, it's the era for the valiant to rise. Just like the Three Kingdoms period in the history of Xuanming Country, it's the worst of times, but also the best of times.
Out of all the heroes from the Three Kingdoms, the one I admire most is Cao Cao. Great achievers don't get bogged down by the trivial. Capable of accommodating talents from all over the world, I see you as a talent. As long as you're willing to surrender to me, I guarantee you won't be treated unfairly.
Together, we can conquer the realm, share the blessings. Not to mention anything else, taking down Kongming City and becoming a local feudal lord is not a problem at all. What say you?"
