Patriarch Xue saw Bai Zihan fall silent.
His heart immediately tightened, thinking that he was going to refuse.
The Bai Clan's decision would determine whether the Neutral Alliance could truly survive the coming storm.
Patriarch Xue quickly spoke again.
"Clan Leader Bai…"
His tone became even more cautious.
"I know what you are worried about."
Patriarch Xue forced out a faint smile.
"The Nie Clan!"
Patriarch Xue continued cautiously.
"I know about the entanglement between the two clans."
His voice slowed slightly.
"But those things are all in the past and that if the Bai Clan doesn't mind it, then the Nie Clan shouldn't either…"
Toward the end, his confidence weakened slightly.
He wasn't fully certain what the Nie Clan's stance on this might be.
And thinking about the proud Nie Fengzhuo, he felt that it wouldn't be easy for him to seek help from someone who had once humiliated him.
