The standoff was at an impasse.
Xiahou Wei refused to give ground; neither did He Hentian and Gao Fei, and for a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat oppressive.
"Don't push people too far!" Xiahou Wei bit his teeth and enunciated every word, "Dongguo Heixin killed my wife, letting him live is already an extraordinary mercy on my part. All I ask now is for him to guard my wife's tomb for a century before I restore his freedom, I believe my demands are not excessive."
He Hentian chuckled lightly, "Your precious daughter, Xiahou Bing, bullied others on the strength of her position and committed all sorts of evil deeds. According to the law, she deserves to be executed. That I'm willing to spare her life is already extending mercy beyond the law, having her serve a hundred years in prison to reflect and reform, and then she can live a proper life after release. I believe my way of handling this is very reasonable."
"You are twisting the facts!"
