With Lian Dajian's decision made, the elders didn't question it and went along with it. To them if the patriarch had made this decision, he probably had additional plans to deal with it if things went south.
Additionally, there was still Elder Ruanjian accompanying Lian Xiaojian thus the concern of the elders was reduced even more.
Elder Ruanjian was an accomplished elder and was the younger half brother of the patriarch. He was among the few of his half siblings that had managed to survive the fight for the seat of the patriarch in the last generation.
And this was only because Lian Ruanjian had chosen to come under Lina Dajian in the very start of his career. This had not only allowed him to survive all these years, but he had also managed to gain a lot of fortune.
