"How despicable! The Demon Lord Bai Yue wants to lead Long Yan to his death. If he's willing to endure her palm strike, it's unlikely he'll survive."
"This is clearly a trap. Long Yan better not agree. If he does, not only will he lose his life, he won't be able to save Bai Ling either."
"Long Yan, you've shown emotion and righteousness. You've done enough, there's no need to risk your life."
...
Upon hearing the conditions of Demon Lord Bai Yue, everyone thought it was absurd.
Demon Lord Bai Yue was obviously using Bai Ling as a hostage, intending to lead Long Yan to his death. Though she was beaten by Long Yan, if he willingly took her palm strike, standing still without any defense, it'd be a life and death ordeal. Even for someone at the Other Shore Emperor Realm, taking Demon Lord Bai Yue's strike would be equivalent to courting death.
As despicable as Demon Lord Bai Yue is, she would certainly show no mercy to Long Yan.
