We need to keep quotes? The Chinese uses 「」 for speech. We can keep as quotes or use English quotes. Probably use English quotation marks. Keep the content.

Thus: "Master, Qian Renxue has come; she's probably also here to find you. Why don't we take the opportunity to kill her?" Di Tian said.

But need to keep "said" as "said thus" or "said". We'll translate as "said". Keep meaning.

Translation: Qian Renxue blinked, then hastily shook her head and said, "How could I possibly use force against you? If I thought that, I wouldn't have put myself in danger."

Translation: Qian Renxue appeared quite tense at this moment, unable to help stepping back, for she had sensed that the man before her intended to strike her down on the spot.

Translation: Bai Yuan's lips twitched slightly as he said, "Then if I were to use force against you, intending to keep you here for life, preventing you from returning to inherit the divine position, would you resist?"

Translation: Qian Renxue sensed the change in the surrounding environment and gave a wry smile: "Bai Di, do I still have a choice? If you want me to stay, I'll stay; if you want me dead, you need not bother to act yourself."

After all, inside the Star Dou Great Forest, there has never been a shortage of 100,000-year Soul Beasts; these are generally 100,000-year Soul Beasts that died because they could not withstand the heavenly tribulation.

These Soul Beasts' corpses are left for other Soul Beasts to gnaw on, but the remaining soul bones, Emperor Tian will find a place to bury them uniformly.

Where is the graveyard of the 100,000-year Soul Beasts?

But for humans, it is a treasure land.

Qian Renxue at this moment stared blankly at Bai Yuan.

She never expected that he would spare her.

And he would even give her such a priceless great gift!
