This is another kind of submission!
Willing to swear allegiance, willing to kneel, and basically no possibility of rebellion.
However... it is absolutely not willing in one's heart, yet with no other choice whatsoever, not even slackening in battle.
Lanling gazed at Fire Demon Venerable and Master Chonglou, slowly saying: "Assume you can live to be three hundred years old! If you ever displease me, the first time will deduct ten years; the second, fifty years; the third, a hundred years!"
Upon hearing Lanling's words, Fire Demon and Chonglou's faces trembled, continuing to kneel and bow, saying: "We obey, Your Majesty!"
"Prepare yourselves, your former master Emperor Di Ming is coming soon, muster all your strength to take him down," said Lanling, "Once Flame Demon City is destroyed, you would die directly as well."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" said the two venerables.
