Succession

Countless eyes looked toward Jian Ao and the other powerhouses. According to everything that Ye Futian had said, the Original Realm would be completely placed under the rule of the Heavenly Mandate Academy, thus ending the rivalry that had been going on in the Nine Realms for many years.

Would Jian Ao and his affiliates agree to his proposal?

It seemed that they did not have a choice.

They came to apologize. Could they not comply?

At this point, if they disagreed with Ye Futian's conditions, perhaps only death would await them.

Presumably, they would already have been prepared for this when these people were on their way here.
