That was out of character for Yuan to take advantage of White Lotus just to torture the guy a bit more. Dragon's Gaze would've been worse. Now White Lotus can reminisce her first kiss in a backdrop of dismemberment, blood, and torture XD Confession or not, Yuan seemed to have planned on using the Heaven Splitting Strike from the start to "clean up" his involvement while sending a warning to the world.
