Just as the plea for mercy reached the edge of his lips, Zhu Yan suppressed it once again.
He was born proud, and had never been so humble even in front of his father…
At the moment, Master Lin Ya was also watching him, signaling with his eyes for Zhu Yan to bow his head, yet those eyes felt like two knives piercing Zhu Yan's heart deeply.
But the Heavenly Palace Halberd still hung before him, and its terrifying edge made him dare not speak the words, "I do not submit."
Recalling the terrifying experience just now, Zhu Yan's heart still trembled.
"It seems you are unwilling to bow, in that case, prepare to die!"
Fang Wang's voice sounded, his words cold and indifferent. As they fell, the Heavenly Palace Halberd quivered, startling Zhu Yan into hastily shouting:
"I want to live! I was wrong! I submit!"
After speaking, Zhu Yan gasped for air, his face covered in blood that would not stop flowing down, devoid now of his earlier arrogance.
