Zhuge Yin did not want to kill off Yue Yi so quickly. With Yue Yi in hand, he would have many opportunities to humiliate Jun Wu Xie!
If Jun Wu Xie were to really kneel down and kowtow to beg in order to save Yue Yi, then Zhuge Yin would have achieved his aim of humiliating Jun Wu Xie. At the same time, it would let Gu Xin Yan see clearly just how weak and useless Jun Wu Xie really was.
And if Jun Wu Xie chose not to save Yue Yi, Zhuge Yin wouldn't mind it as well. As being a despicable cad who was willing to forego a fellow disciple's life just to preserve one's own pride would naturally make him the target that everyone would despise.
It could be said, that from the moment Zhuge Yin tossed out that offer, he wasn't worried in the least whether Jun Wu Xie chose or not.
Because to him, no matter what Jun Wu Xie's choice was, the resulting effect would be the same!
