Old Xiong stayed silent, urging Linfeng to speak more.
"Right now, aside from the three of us present here," Linfeng gestured at himself, Xiong Zhi, and Old Xiong, "the only people who knew about this are the Zhou elders. If we all don't speak about this, then the rest of the Zhou family would never know."
"So... are you suggesting to keep it silent?" Old Xiong snorted, unconvinced. If they keep silent about it, how would the rest of the Zhou family members get their freedom back? They would still have the same mindset as before as the most loyal and devoted subordinates of the Xiong family.
"Yes and no. For now, I am planning to keep it quiet. Though, breaking the treaty would still inevitably happen."
"...Keeping it quiet. Do you think the elders will allow you to do that?"
"I believe they will," Linfeng confidently said.
Old Xiong raised a brow, signaling him to continue.
