After a brief observation, Spirit Sword Ancestor was the first to speak tentatively.
"Duke Yu..."
However, before the words were finished, Zhu Haomiao waved his hand, interrupting without allowing any argument.
"I trust you're all well aware of the conditions I've previously laid out."
"I have no patience for wrangling with you. This time, I just want to know one thing..."
His words paused, and the young man cast his eyes around the room, his gaze filled with such pressure that everyone felt on edge, but his next words instantly stretched the atmosphere to its limit.
"Have you chosen to submit, or face annihilation?"
Everyone present turned pale, even Spirit Sword Ancestor frowned.
"Duke Yu, isn't it too tyrannical to be so unreasonable?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Haomiao chuckled softly, shaking his head.
"Tyrannical?"
"I didn't come here to directly eradicate you, which is already going above and beyond."
