"Are you threatening me with the Barbarian Clan?" Hongyi's voice gradually turned icy.
"Not at all!" The black-robed man bowed his head, his tone also softening somewhat. "The Eternal Alliance was created by the Demon Evil Clan; how could my Barbarian Clan dare to slight it?"
"You are arrogant!" A few words lightly fell from Hongyi's mouth, and immediately the atmosphere in the room grew heavy.
The black-robed man fell silent, seemingly conceding to Hongyi's words. In an instant, the atmosphere tensed further. Green light flickered in the eyes of the other man and the old man, as if they were ready to strike at any moment.
Suddenly, Hongyi sat down, her eyes signaling. "Guests are to be treated with respect. Since the Barbarian Clan is cooperating with our Eternal Alliance, we are naturally allies."
With those words, the heavy atmosphere dissipated considerably.
The black-robed man smiled. "Thank you, Hall Master Hongyi." He took a seat in an empty spot.
