"Moreover, we do indeed lack combat power..."
Zero smiled wryly:
"Zi You, do you really believe in oaths? Human hearts are unpredictable, just like the farmer and the snake. You saved them, and they repaid kindness with enmity; there are too many examples like this..."
Zi You heard this and, although she didn't understand what Ling meant by "the farmer and the snake," she could understand what Ling meant. Ling was worried because she felt that the oath was not very effective.

Since the oath is bound by the rules of Heaven, he naturally has nothing to worry about.
