In an instant.
Guo Cheng did not expect that Zhou Yi would be so difficult to deal with.
What he thought was this.
If he could reach a collaboration with Zhou Yi, they would cooperate, search for the Tyrant's Heart together, and after his deeds were done, he would just kill this guy, pulling a "kill the donkey after it's done with the grinding."
The primary reason for this approach was.
When the masked man showed up later, he could join forces with Zhou Yi to fight him.
Zhou Yi had a grudge against the masked man.
Once they met.
They would undoubtedly fight to the death, and taking the chance of their conflict, he could seize the Tyrant's Heart all on his own.
If Zhou Yi didn't cooperate,
He could simply kill Zhou Yi, eliminating a potential competitor.
However.
The current stalemate made it quite a challenge to handle.
