As per your version, a Sale Agreement was already registered by X in your father's name. And again you are saying that prior to your father's death, your father made an agreement in your favour. Now the legal heirs of X are demanding more amount. All these questions are not related to each other. So specify what is your doubt. You should clarify:
1. X registered Sale Deed or an Agreement of sale, in the name of your father. What document X has registered.
2. If it is an Agreement of Sale stands in the name of your father, he has no right to execute another agreement in your name by your father.
3. If a Sale Deed already registered by X in either your father's name or in your name, the legal heirs have no right to demand more money, now.

What did you do since the year 2014, if you were interested in purchase of the property under agreement?
Show the document of "agreement to sell" to a local prudent lawyer for proper analyses, guidance and proceeding.
