Chapter 70: Baiting?

Seeing that the top three were in agreement with Young Master Shirong, some of the other clans started to speak up as well. Out of the seventeen remaining Powers in the hall, seven were clearly in Shirong's favor and were willing to let go of the sacrifice that was made.

Of the remaining ten, four were in clear disagreement with Shirong's words and four were neutral. The final two were in the middle, but it seemed like all they wanted was to get compensated and were not fully displeased with Young master Shirong.

Shirong cupped his hands again and spoke, "Please, go ahead and ask me whatever you'd like gentlemen." 

"Young Master Shirong, we heard that a beast attacked you. While we heard the account from the guards, I still want to hear your firsthand experience." Spoke one of the two clan heads that were displeased with Shirong.

He recognized this man to be the clan head of the Ping clan. Shirong pretended to think for a few seconds before answering.
