i agree i loved the MK Legacy portrail of him, i that the actor did a great job in making him feel more human and less like a superior breed of monk that stays on the right path all the time. Idk if he would ally with Quan CHi, i mean years after Quan Chi could be dead if this SHinnok recieved visions like Raiden from his future self, he would know Quan Chi Stold his amulet and could be plotting to do away with him too. but i could see him joining possibly Shinnok (in some hope that helping him he'll revive his girlfriend (kitana). possibly even Onaga, he could be so bitter to the point of wanting everything to end including the gods and the universe so siding with Onaga migh suit his needs. You might be right about him not allying with Quan Chi and going with Shinnok instead. As a matter of fact, just to throw this out there, what if Liu Kang reluctantly helps out Raiden and Raiden shares his visions with Liu Kang and uses these pieces of information as a way to align himself with Shinnok? Like telling him about the fake amulet that Quan Chi gives him. At that point, we could be rid of both Quan Chi and Shang Tsung (being that Tsung died in MK2011) and the new Deadly Alliance would be Liu Kang and Shinnok years later. But this wouldn't be to say that Liu Kang becomes a villain persay but a darker version of him almost what Raiden was between MK: Deception and Armageddon (as well as the beginning of MK2011). Kitana would be the best motivation for Liu Kang to align with Shinnok. I doubt that he would align with Onaga unless Onaga would possess Liu Kang in the first place. With the Kamidogu, Onaga doesn't need anyone to align with (maybe with the acception of Noob and Smoke from MK: D - MK: Unchained). Although if they do align then it would be because Liu Kang hates the Elder Gods for allowing Shao Kahn to reign destruction over Earthrealm.
