"That's right, it's just an excuse from the He Family. Even if we agree to their demands, they still won't let us go," another elder from the Tie Family Castle said worriedly.
Tie Qianyuan furrowed his brows and sighed, "Is it really the end for our Tie Family Castle? We've weathered storms for hundreds of years, and I didn't expect it to be ruined by my hands!"
"Where are Qian Chengdong and the other two right now? If they were here, the He Family might be more cautious," a Tie Family Castle elder said.
"Hmph, if the three of them were here, I'm afraid they would collude with the He Family and turn against us at the last moment—that would be even worse!" Tie Mu said.
After that, the great hall fell silent again.
Just then, a disciple of Tie Family Castle ran in and reported to Tie Qianyuan, "Fortress Lord, a young man with black hair has arrived outside. He says he knows the Young Master and the Young Lady and has come to visit."
