The crowd erupted in talks, expressing their dissatisfaction with the difference in treatment.
At this moment, the Duke of Cloud Fog City gave everyone a Hold Fist salute, bowed deeply, and said in a solemn voice, "I apologize greatly to all of my respected guests here. A small matter came up at home just now and obstructed me from welcoming all of you on time. I've let you waited for too long! I, Yun Hui, apologize to everyone here and hope that there are no hard feelings."
"No, it's alright. The guests should always listen to the host. If something came up, how could we blame the host…" replied some people politely.
The crowd exchanged furtive glances and started mumbling to each other.
His statement that something happened must be true. Otherwise, it was not acceptable for him to leave his guests hanging as the organizer of the Great Wall Summit.
