Chapter 556: Saint, please have mercy on me!
Not long after, Xu Qiang and the Dark Soul Warriors successfully arrived at the location designated by Su Chenyin.
This is a side door of Qianluo Palace.
The surroundings were silent and quiet, with only the occasional sound of the wind and the faint screams coming from Qianluo Palace.
"The young lady is inside, we all have to be careful!"
Xu Qiang lowered his voice and spoke softly, with a hint of alertness in his eyes.
The Dark Soul Warriors nodded to show that they understood, and then tiptoed slowly towards the side door.
When they got closer, they found that the side door was not completely closed, but was only half-open, as if it was quietly waiting for their arrival.
Xu Qiang took a deep breath, then gently pushed the side door open.
In an instant, a strong and pungent smell of blood came like a tide.
Xu Qiang couldn't help but frown, but he didn't show any intention of retreating. Instead, he resolutely led the Dark Soul Warriors behind him into the Qianluo Palace.
When everyone just stepped into Qianluo Palace, they were instantly stunned by the horrifying scene before them, and they all gasped at the same time.
The ground was littered with corpses piled up in all directions, almost as high as a mountain.
The glaring scarlet blood had already dyed the entire ground red, and even the surrounding walls were stained with blood, which was shocking to the eye.
At this moment, Qianluo Palace was like a living hell on earth, filled with a creepy smell of death.
"This... this is too tragic." A dark soul warrior couldn't help but exclaim.
"Hmph! Each and every one of these people from Qianluo Palace is a heinous criminal who deserves to be put to death." An Feng said hatefully.
An Bai immediately echoed: "That's right, our young lady did a great job. Such wicked people as them deserve such a miserable end!"
At this time, a dark soul warrior looked anxious and asked eagerly: "Where is the lady? Where is she now?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Qiang hurriedly looked around. After searching for a while, he finally found Su Chenyin and others not far away.
"Look, the lady is over there!"
Xu Qiang shouted excitedly, then led the Dark Soul Warriors and ran quickly towards the direction where Su Chenyin was.
After hearing the shouting, Su Chenyin turned around and saw Xu Qiang and the Dark Soul Warriors, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Chief Xu, you are here." Su Chenyin said.
Xu Qiang and others took two steps at a time and came to Su Chenyin, and first bowed to her respectfully.
Then Xu Qiang asked with concern, "Miss, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Su Chenyin shook her head, and her waterfall-like black hair swayed gently.
After she finished speaking, she turned her gaze once again to the elders and disciples of Qianluo Palace who were already frightened out of their wits and had faces as pale as paper.
Her eyes were as cold as snow, as if they could freeze all life, without a trace of mercy.
Under her gaze, the elders and disciples lowered their heads one after another, and even lost the courage to look her in the eye.
"Please spare my life, Saint, please spare my life!"
"Saint, we are innocent. We have done nothing to harm you. Please spare our lives!"
"Yes, Saint, please spare us... We are innocent..."
Some of the less courageous disciples could not withstand Su Chenyin's powerful pressure and cold gaze, and finally could not help but beg for mercy.
Their voices trembled violently, and every word was filled with deep fear.
Hearing these pleas for mercy, Su Chenyin sneered.
"Spare their lives? Humph, when you were killing others, did you ever think of sparing their lives?"
"I'm sorry, it's too late to beg for mercy now."
Su Chenyin's words were as biting as a cold wind, chilling the hearts of everyone present in Qianluo Palace.
"Saint, we know we were wrong, we will never do it again, please have mercy on us and let us go!"
"That's right, Saint, this elder has no ill will towards you, please let us go..."
At this time, even the elders who were usually high and mighty had to put aside their dignity and beg bitterly.
Their bodies kept shaking, and it was obvious that they were terrified to the extreme.
At this moment, they couldn't even break free from Su Chenyin's pressure, and couldn't even circulate a trace of spiritual power, so they could do nothing but beg for mercy.
But Su Chenyin was not moved by their pleas and sneered again, full of sarcasm.
"Let you go? Humph! How ridiculous! Then who will let go of those innocent people you brutally killed?"
"Do they deserve to die?"
At this point, Su Chenyin's tone became even more severe.
She opened her beautiful eyes wide, scanning the so-called people from the Qianluo Palace in front of her, and continued to scold angrily:
"You, Qianluo Palace, are really two-faced. You pretend to be righteous in front of outsiders, but you do evil and do whatever you want behind the scenes."
"After committing so many evil deeds and killing innocent people, do you have even a shred of mercy?"
"Have you ever thought that one day you will be punished and end up in such a miserable situation?"
"Now that I have fallen into this situation, it is nothing but the justice of heaven and retribution!"
Every word Su Chenyin said was heart-piercing, and her voice was extremely cold, making the elders and disciples even more frightened.
For a moment, the whole scene fell into deathly silence, and no one dared to respond to her question.
They all lowered their heads, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, and were completely immersed in deep fear and despair.
Seeing this, Su Chenyin slowly walked forward a few steps.
Every step you take feels like the pressure of a thousand pounds, causing the ground to tremble slightly.
As she got closer and closer to the elders and disciples, people in the distance felt their hearts rise to their throats and they were so nervous that they could hardly breathe.
At this moment, Su Chenyin suddenly stopped.
She slightly raised her beautiful and cold face, opened her red lips and said slowly:
"However... since you are now fully aware of the severity of your sins, I can let you off the hook and give you a chance to atone for your sins."
As soon as these words were spoken, the elders and disciples of Qianluo Palace, who had already lost all hope, felt as if they had grasped the last straw.
They all raised their heads suddenly, and a faint but hopeful light flashed in their eyes.
Among them, the young Elder Chen reacted the fastest.
His face was full of fear, and he pleaded in a very sincere tone:
"Thank you for your kindness, Saint, for not killing me! I hope you can tell me how to atone for our sins. We will follow your instructions and never commit the same sin again!"
When he said this, his voice trembled slightly due to nervousness and excitement, and it clearly revealed a bit of eagerness and flattery.
After all, at this moment, for him, being able to grasp any possibility of survival is more important than anything else.
As long as there is still a glimmer of hope, what's the harm in making him a little humble?
