The situation was stronger than the person!
The ghost cultivator and the White jade skeleton were both experienced people. They naturally understood what Zhao Hai meant. Zhao Hai had called them to the ship to negotiate because he wanted to see if they were still useful. If they were really useless, Zhao Hai would have ordered them to be destroyed long ago.
The ghost cultivator and the White jade skeleton were not naïve enough to think that Zhao Hai was a kind person. From the way Zhao Hai did things, he was definitely a standard cultivator. He was cruel and merciless, but he prioritized benefits above all else.
The ghost cultivator and the White jade skeleton knew very well that if they dared to say that they would not surrender, they would be killed on the spot with the next order.
