Facing this problem was not just one or two families who were hesitant. One of Cloudy Moon City's mid sized family clan was in the midst of a meeting with their elders as they were discussing this matter. When they heard that they had been invited, the several elders had their eyebrows furrowed.
The family head held the invite in his hands and looked at an old man seated to his left and asked: "Great Elder, what do you think of this matter? Should we attend this? Or should we not?"
That old man stroked his long white beard and glanced at the red invitation and said: "This Guan Xi Lin is establishing a clan, however it is but a small one. It cannot be compared to the various powers that have their roots here in Cloudy Moon City, so even if we do not attend, it shouldn't pose much of a problem...but…."
