Even though she was already in a life-and-death situation, upon hearing Lady Jiayuan's words, Shang Ruyi's face darkened immediately.
Ashina Shali was slightly stunned, and then a cold smile appeared on his face.
What a malicious thought!
Shang Ruyi bit her teeth tightly — while Lady Jiayuan's suggestion seemed to spare her life, the real motive was far deeper — if Ashina Shali were just to execute her, it would confirm the "great merit" established by Ashina Zhuxie, but obviously Lady Jiayuan could not allow such a thing to happen.
Thus, by not killing her, the credit merely remains in words.
Moreover, for Ashina Shali, this hatred that lasted for more than ten years couldn't possibly be settled by simply killing her.
What he wanted was humiliation, was revenge.
