"Surrender?" Zuan scoffed. "That word doesn't exist in my dictionary."
Qiu Honglei wasn't annoyed and continued, "Don't rush to refuse. Look at yourself. In this situation, even if you continue fighting, you can't beat us. Even if you have some trump cards you haven't used yet, and you have a way to escape, they can't leave."
Following her gaze, Zu'an noticed that the others in the arena were in grave danger. It should be noted that the eight wandering masters of the Demonic Sect were all at the peak of the sixth rank, and some had even reached the seventh rank.
Pei Mianman was only a sixth-rank expert, and Zheng Dan was only at the peak of the fifth rank. They were also injured, so it was really too difficult for them to fight against these well-known masters.
If Pei Mianman's black flames hadn't been so incredibly powerful that they had made the enemy somewhat hesitant, the two women would probably have been captured long ago.
Even so, they were already in grave danger.
As for the Sang family father and daughter, they were in an even worse state, barely holding on thanks to the seriously injured Sang Hong. Neither Sang Qian nor Sang Qian were as good at actual combat as Pei Mianman and Zheng Dan.
On his own side, he knew that facing Jin, Feng, and Bing, he would have a hard time even protecting himself, let alone retaliating.
Sigh, if I had known this would happen, I should have left Yun Yuqing for a while. With her there, things would have been much easier.
However, he quickly dismissed the idea. He knew that countless people would come after him in the future. Yun Yuqing could save him once, but could she save him for a lifetime?
Qiu Honglei continued, "As for what happens after you surrender, don't worry. We definitely won't hurt you. You should have been able to tell from the fight just now that they all went easy on you."
Zuan snorted: "In the end, isn't it just that your leader wants the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra on my body?"
Qiu Honglei smiled slightly: "I don't deny that, but the whole world is looking for you now, so one more of our leader won't make a difference. But our Holy Sect is different from other forces. Other forces will definitely interrogate you after capturing you, and then kill you to silence you. But our leader has always valued talent and has been eager to recruit like-minded people. With your abilities, you will definitely achieve great things in the Holy Sect."
Zuan frowned and said, "In the end, we still have to offer the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra to your leader."
Qiu Honglei glanced at him quietly before saying, "Azu, you should understand the principle that possessing a treasure is a crime. Unless you are strong enough to deal with all forces, which is clearly not the case right now, the sect leader can protect you and keep your life. This is the best condition I can get for you."
Zu'an understood what she meant. In everyone's eyes, he was now facing a desperate situation, and her offer was quite generous. After all, whether he fell into the hands of the emperor or other forces, he wouldn't even be able to save his life.
If it weren't for the close relationship between myself and Qiu Honglei, even if I fell into the hands of the Demonic Sect, I would most likely have met my end.
Refusing such conditions would be incredibly ungrateful.
"Thank you, Miss Qiu. Although you didn't say it, I know how much effort you've put in." Zu An cupped his hands in thanks, but unfortunately, he had his own plans and didn't believe that the Demonic Sect leader would really spare his life.
"You know that's good," Qiu Honglei hummed softly, the coquettish tone leaving the other three speechless. She immediately realized this and quickly coughed to suppress her smile. "So you agree?"
Zuan shook his head: "I'm used to being free and independent, and I really don't want to be someone else's underling."
Qiu Honglei's expression turned cold, and she turned directly to the eight wandering masters, ordering, "Kill them all!"
In that instant, the coldness she revealed made people realize that she was no longer the charming courtesan of Shenxianju, but a ruthless saintess of a demonic sect.
"Good!" Both Jin Sanren and Bing Sanren had been itching to fight back for a long time. Now that they had received the order, they grinned and rushed towards the others.
Zaun is such a jerk, but unfortunately they can't do anything about it because of the leader's orders and the saintess's protection. But they can kill his friends to vent their anger.
Seeing three more people rushing towards them, Sang Qian panicked. They were already in grave danger, and now they were facing certain death.
He never expected that the goddess he used to like so much would kill him so easily, as if he were just an ordinary passerby in her eyes. He felt sad, disappointed, and scared, and at the same time, he was extremely angry at Zaun.
"You surnamed Zu, it's all your fault!"
Anger from Sang Qian +1024!
Zu An didn't even bother to glance at him. He was more concerned about the safety of Pei Mianman and Zheng Dan. He subconsciously wanted to go and help, but Qiu Honglei stopped him.
"If you want to get past me, you'll have to get past me first." Qiu Honglei, carrying a lantern, stood silently in front of him.
Zu An was immediately at a loss. Qiu Honglei was always very mysterious, and her cultivation level was probably between the fifth and sixth rank, or even more likely the sixth rank. In addition, with that mysterious lantern, it would be no easy task for him to break through her defenses.
Seeing that Pei Mianman and Zheng Dan were both injured, he dared not delay any longer and hurriedly said, "Okay, I promise you, I'll go with you and let them go."
"That's a good girl~" Qiu Honglei's frosty face instantly blossomed into a smile, the huge contrast like the first melting of ice and snow.
Looking at the beautiful woman smiling in front of him, Zu An's last bit of anger vanished. Sigh, he still couldn't shake his flaw of judging people by their appearance.
Qiu Honglei turned around and ordered the eight wandering immortals to release Pei Mianman and the others. However, Lei Sanren frowned and said, "Holy Maiden, letting these people leave will reveal the information that Zu'an has fallen into our sect. That will have endless consequences."
