Xu Weixiong hesitated only briefly before making a decision. He deeply understood a principle, which is that risk begets prosperity. For him, there was no backing now, and if he didn't seize this opportunity to align with Ji Yang, his life would be stuck as it was.
As for the strength of his family, Xu Weixiong knew well that no matter how powerful a family is, it is nothing in the face of state machinery.
From various pieces of information, it was clear that Ji Yang was absolutely not someone without a background, and his background was considerable. Moreover, Xu Weixiong received some news that Ji Yang was planning to promote a new group of people.
In this situation, Xu Weixiong had also thought it through: he actually didn't need to do much. He only needed to expose the plot to assassinate Ji Yang, then Ji Yang could avoid being caught off guard, and he himself wouldn't even need to be exposed.
