The hall immediately erupted into chaos.
"Have the Jiang Family gone mad? How come we never heard a word about this?"
"Quick... call the police... call the police!"
"Fuck... goddammit, there's no signal..."
Su Shengnan took out her phone. Sure enough, it had no bars of reception. Clearly, the three families had come prepared and were already jamming the signal.
"What do we do? I don't want to die..." someone said in a trembling voice, slumping to the floor.
"Why... why don't we surrender?" A tearful voice rose from a corner. "Maybe we can still save our lives... it's better than all of us dying here, right?"

Some people lowered their heads, their eyes shifting. Clearly, they were tempted.
Just then, a figure flashed past.
There was a bang, and the man who had just spoken was sent flying by a kick. He slammed heavily into the wall, then crumpled to the floor.
"Bastard... how could the Su Family have a coward like you?"
Everyone turned toward the figure and saw First Elder Su Changfeng standing there, his face livid.
He looked around, sweeping his gaze over every face, and roared, "Listen to me! Even if the Su Family fights down to its last member, we will never surrender!"
"Put those little schemes out of your minds. If you dare entertain any other ideas, don't blame us old men for showing no mercy." Su Changlin and the other two elders stepped forward as well, issuing a cold warning.
Su Changfeng surveyed the room, his gaze finally settling on Su Shengnan. Then he said respectfully, "Family Head, please decide what we should do next. All of us old men will support you."
"That's right, Family Head... whatever you decide, we'll support you..."
