Su Yun's wish to die had taken Yun Xiu by surprise; she couldn't have imagined that the servant, who had repeatedly vowed to seek revenge against her, would abandon all hope to live after seeing the Gu Master and An Yuanxi.
"Didn't you say you wanted to avenge yourself against me? And now that your goal is within reach, how could you give up at this moment?"
Tears streaming down her face, Yun Xiu said encouragingly.
"Miss, please, let them be released from their suffering."
Su Yun, also with tears streaming down her face, said: "Those still in the Underground prison have long ceased to be human. Their bodies are riddled with holes and their souls shattered to pieces. If they had the choice, they would have ended their lives long ago. If Saint Child would keep his promise to kill them should he fail to see you, it wouldn't be punishment, but an act of mercy!"
It was a preposterous turn, the threat of killing becoming an act of charity, leaving Yun Xiu at a loss for words.
