Xiao Jing and the others did not believe it and still looked at Qingluan with suspicion.
The main reason is that they've spent so much time with Qingluan and have never seen Qingluan joke, so it's understandable that they don't believe her.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Qingluan gave a wry smile, knowing she had gone too far with her joke, but she still tried to explain, "I was really just joking, I'm not lying to you!"
Seeing Qingluan's serious expression, Xiao Jing and the others finally dispelled their doubts.
Qingluan breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Xiao Jing and the others believed her, otherwise she would have lost all face.
At the same time, she decided that she would never joke around carelessly again!
No, I mean I'll never joke around again!
Yun Cangming's face was extremely pale, devoid of any color, his eyes filled with fear and despair, his body trembling uncontrollably, and even his breathing had stopped.
Without further hesitation, he hurriedly said, "Senior... Senior, spare my life! I surrender! I surrender!"
His voice trembled.
Su Chen remained calm. His right hand, which was about to be raised, suddenly stopped in mid-air. After a moment, his right hand slowly fell down and was placed behind his back.
In an instant, Yun Cangming felt the despairing and suffocating oppression vanish abruptly, and his legs went weak, almost collapsing to the ground.
He was panting heavily, sweat dripping from his forehead, and the fear in his eyes had not disappeared, but he finally felt a sense of relief.
Luckily he surrendered in time, otherwise he would have been completely finished!
After a moment, Yun Cangming straightened up, looked at Su Chen, and felt a sense of helplessness and complexity in his heart.
He... in the end, chose to submit!
He has no choice but to submit!
You'll die if you don't submit!
In fact, he had considered that even if it meant death, he would rather die than submit. After all, as the patriarch of the Qilin Clan, and a powerful figure standing at the pinnacle of the Immortal Realm, he possessed his own pride and dignity.
But when he truly felt the sensation of death, everything changed. The terrifying aura surged towards him like a raging dark tide, engulfing him in an instant. He felt as if he were in an endless abyss of darkness, surrounded by a despairing silence.
At that moment, he clearly felt the fragility of life. Death was like a sharp sword held to his neck; with just a slight swing, his realm, his status, and everything else would vanish into nothingness.
In that instant, images of the Qilin Clan members involuntarily surfaced in his mind—those familiar faces, those expectant eyes.
He knew that if he died like this, the Qilin Clan would lose its leader and fall into endless chaos and disaster.
Therefore, he had no choice but to make the decision to submit, but he didn't know what his fate would be after submitting.
Is it to be someone else's mount?
Or perhaps slaves?
And all of this is unknown.
Su Chen suddenly said, "I've changed my mind. You can leave now."
Upon hearing this, Yun Cangming, who had been sighing inwardly, was stunned. Not only him, but everyone in the room was also stunned. They looked at Su Chen, a hint of doubt arising in their hearts.
Why did Su Chen suddenly choose to let Yun Cangming go?
They fell into deep thought, but even after racking their brains, they couldn't figure it out.
Ling Xu spoke up, "What do you think Senior is thinking?"
The middle-aged man glanced at him. "Can you stop spouting nonsense? How would we know what the senior is thinking?"
Ling Xu's lips twitched, and he turned his head away, not wanting to pay any attention to the middle-aged man.
Qingluan spoke up, "I observe that you are not a soft-hearted person, so your decision to let Yun Cangming go must have some purpose, but I don't know what that purpose is."
Everyone fell into deep thought and remained silent.
Ye Lingxi and Yan Qingwu looked at Su Chen in surprise. Clearly, they couldn't understand why Su Chen would choose to let Yun Cangming go.
At this moment, Yun Cangming was even more incredulous, his face filled with astonishment and surprise, "Senior, is it true?"
Su Chen said calmly, "If you want to die, I can grant your wish."
Yun Cangming's expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "No, no, no, I don't want to die!"
After saying that, he hesitated for a moment, then said, "Senior, is there something you need me to do? If so, please tell me, and I promise to complete the task you assign."
Su Chen looked at him calmly and said, "If you say another word, I'll kill you."
Yun Cangming's body trembled involuntarily. He kept his mouth tightly shut, not daring to utter another word.
Su Chen ignored him and turned to look at the four Dragon Clan Immortal Emperor and all the powerful figures of the Dragon Clan and Fire Phoenix Clan in the distance. However, no one noticed that as he moved his gaze, he took a deep look at Hu Xiaotian in Ye Lingxi's arms.
Hu Xiaotian seemed to sense something and looked up, but Su Chen's gaze was no longer on him.
Upon seeing Su Chen's gaze, the four Dragon Clan Immortal Emperor, along with the powerful figures from the Fire Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan, felt a sudden tightness in their hearts. Their expressions were extremely uneasy, their hearts pounded wildly, and they felt as if they were suffocating.
But at that moment, a strange light suddenly appeared in the sky. This light spread rapidly outwards like ripples, illuminating the entire world with vibrant colors.
Under the bewildered gazes of all living beings, a graceful figure slowly emerged. She wore a long, snow-white robe embroidered with mysterious golden patterns. Her long hair cascaded down her back, swaying gently in the wind and radiating a captivating glow.
Her face was absolutely stunning, with skin as white as snow, eyebrows like distant mountains, and eyes like autumn water, seemingly containing the stars and the sea, deep and mysterious.
All living beings looked at the woman, a hint of amazement flashing in their eyes.
This woman is so beautiful!
Ye Lingxi and Yan Qingwu frowned slightly, a hint of hostility flashing in their eyes.
Xiao Jing and several Human Race Immortal Emperor became solemn.
The middle-aged man said, "This woman is not simple."
Ling Xu said solemnly, "Yes, I sensed a threat of death emanating from her."
The others couldn't help but nod, because they too had sensed the aura of death emanating from the woman!
Those who could make them sense the aura of death were at least at the Peak Immortal Emperor!
Peak Immortal Emperor!
Ling Xu asked in confusion, "I don't recall any women of our Human Race at the Peak Immortal Emperor, do I? Could this woman be from another realm?"
Qingluan nodded and said, "It should be."
The middle-aged man frowned. "What is this woman's purpose in appearing now?"
The old man looked at Xiao Jing, "Clan leader, what do you think?"
Xiao Jing did not respond, but stared intently at the woman, his eyes more solemn than ever before, and his heart was filled with turbulent waves!
The reason was simple: he also sensed the aura of death emanating from the woman!
