Master Su was taken aback upon hearing the words.
His desire for self-sacrifice stemmed not only from the fear of potential humiliation and coercion by the enemy but also aimed to protect the lineage of the Su Family.
He didn't entirely doubt the opponent's promise not to kill him, nor did he fear them reneging. His primary concern was that with his identity exposed, the Su Family would face backlash—after all, being in the Hunting Alliance, you offend a lot of people.
He himself might remain unharmed, as Tiantong shielded him and others couldn't easily act against a Golden Core, but the Su Family might be targeted for revenge, wouldn't they? Ultimately, the Su Family only had one newly advanced Second Layer Golden Core.
As for how powerful potential enemies might be? No need to mention details, just one word suffices—Loose Cultivator Alliance!
Thus, Master Su understood fully that only through his own death could the Su Family continue safely.
