As soon as Feng Beiche spoke, everyone below shuddered in fright. All fell silent, staring at Feng Beiche in astonishment, unsure of what he meant.
He turned to Su Yang, his voice trembling, "Master Su, I... on behalf of all the members of the Seven Great Families, offer you a sincere apology. I am willing to kill all who were involved in the Creek Valley Village incident, and if you... if you still feel it's not enough, I am prepared to take my own life before you as atonement, begging only... only that you spare some descendants for the Seven Great Families..."
The crowd was immediately in an uproar. Why would Feng Beiche say such things?
"Family Head, what are you doing?" a member of the Fong Family couldn't help but shout, "Why are you groveling to him like this?"
"Everyone shut up!" Feng Beiche roared, "Any member of the Seven Great Families who speaks again, I will personally kill them!"
The crowd was instantly stunned. Feng Beiche was truly enraged. But why?
