Why should I fear you?

"So do you believe me now?" Mo Sheng stood up as he spoke. The people from the two clans were still in an unusual state when they heard Mo Sheng's voice. Seeing them being unresponsive Mo Sheng continued to speak. 

"Elders of the Teng Clan, your Ancestor has made an agreement with me, in exchange for his wealth, the Mo Clan promises to protect the Teng Clan, do you accept?" 

It took the Elders of the Teng Clan some time to fully digest what was just said and when they did some of them started to tear up. The Ancestor even when facing death still thought of the clan.

"Thank you, we will be under your protection from now on." The members of the Teng Clan did a palm holds fist salute as they spoke.
