"Truly, the human heart is never satisfied; a snake would swallow an elephant..."
In that instant, Chen Changming understood his predicament.
Blinded by greed, the Zhou Family elders of today—even the three Grand Elders—had chosen to defy the Puppet God King's will in the face of immense profit, despite the King having been a great benefactor to the family since the time of its first ancestor.
