Lady Phoenix had intentionally left these survivors alive. They'd been asked to testify that the beauty, who'd looked like a fairy that day, was the killer. This description referred to Feng Tianlan. However, the woman who had shown up to testify certainly wasn't the beauty from that day, although she'd claimed to be Feng Tianlan.
Therefore, to accomplish the mission that Lady Phoenix had given them, the magistrate and the others thought that this woman before them should die solely because she was called Feng Tianlan. They testified against her without even bothering to investigate the truth.
However, even though the beauty that day had been brutal, the ugly lady before them today was even more ruthless.
Feng Tianlan lowered her eyes and looked at the magistrate, who was lying in a pool of blood. She then looked at those pleading for mercy and confessing the truth. "Spare your lives?"
"Thank you—"
