I'm the villain in the book

Within three days, there was no more Linchuan City in the world.

When Li Zimu did not mention any preconditions, but directly told Su Qi a "result", the latter's reaction can be imagined.

"What, what?!"

His heartbeat seemed to stop for a beat, and Su Qi suddenly stood up, feeling dizzy for a moment.

Although in order to deal with Wei Changtian, Dagan had already made many arrangements in Linchuan City, logically speaking, he would not let the former "do whatever he wants".

Even if anyone else uttered this sentence, Su Qi would only think that the other party had a problem with his mind.

But this is Wei Changtian after all!
What other people can't do, surely this living Yan Luo can't do it?

Su Qi didn't know whether Wei Changtian was bluffing or if he really had a plan in mind.

But he dared not gamble anyway.

"You, you."

Taking a step back with a pale face, Su Qi stared at the calm Li Zimu, then turned around suddenly and walked quickly towards the stairs.

Obviously, he wanted to go directly to Wei Changtian.

And Li Zimu didn't stop him, just watched silently, until an invisible barrier rose from the ground, instantly trapping Su Qi in place.

"."

Pressing his hands tightly on the air wall of the Dragon Locking Formation, Su Qi's eyes became extremely astonished.

He was running around in the formation like a headless fly, but no matter what, he couldn't get out of the less than one foot radius.

At this moment, Su Qi's embarrassment and panic were not acted out.

But he wasn't flustered by his situation.

It's because of the hundreds of thousands of people in Linchuan City.
"Li, Miss Li, please talk to Mr. Wei."

Turning back tremblingly, looking at Li Zimu who was still sitting where he was, Su Qi begged very humblely: "No matter what, the people are innocent, and they shouldn't suffer such an innocent disaster."

"Today, I would like to apologise, I just hope that you can forgive me."

"Just, I just hope that the young master can forgive me."

"."

The voice became smaller and smaller, and the tone became more and more sad.

Willing to use his own life to pay for the mistakes of those ten assassins, in exchange for the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. Leaving aside his position, Su Qi is indeed noble.

It's just that Li Zimu didn't respond to this pleading, he just stood up slowly, and said softly to the end of the stairs respectfully:
"Son."

"."

A glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Su Qi's eyes, Su Qi suddenly turned his head to look at Wei Changtian who was standing behind him at some point, his lips were trembling, and he wanted to say something.

But before he could speak, Wei Changtian spit out three words expressionlessly.

"Why?"

Why?
Why do you, Su Qi, let me be lenient?
Just rely on your life?

"Master Su, your life is not so valuable."

Looking at Su Qi coldly, Wei Changtian walked closer to the former step by step: "So, why should I let the people in Linchuan City go?"

"But, but the people are innocent"

Su Qi's eyes widened, and he shook his head in despair: "Since ancient times, the two countries have not killed common people when they fought."

"Don't kill the common people? That was before me."

With a sneer, Wei Changtian's words were as evil as they were, and the fear in Su Qi's heart reached the extreme in an instant.

But he is not finished yet, and continues to put pressure on the latter's psychology.

"Master Su, don't pretend to be a saint."

"Instigating a war and causing the people of other countries to fall into fire and water, what is the difference between this act and killing?"

"Perhaps you should have thought that there would be today's results when you sent troops."

"Is it possible that only you are allowed to kill? I am not allowed to kill?"

"Hehe, how can there be such a reason in the world?"

The coldness in his eyes became stronger and stronger, coupled with these few words, Su Qi felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

He clearly knew that Wei Changtian was debating, but he didn't know how to refute it.

At this moment, Su Qi's psychological defense was finally on the verge of collapse under the heavy pressure.

But at this moment, Wei Changtian suddenly changed the subject, squinting his eyes and said:
"But Lord Su, I can give you a chance."

"."

Opening his mouth wide in a daze, Su Qi looked at Wei Changtian, and for some reason he vaguely guessed what the latter wanted.

And the fact is exactly as he expected.

"In ten days, I want to see Jing Guoqing."

"If you can do it, then the people in Linchuan City will be able to live."

"Master Su, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."

"As for whether you can grasp it, it depends on yourself."

"."

The noon sun was bright and golden, the sky was clear, and the cicadas were chirping in the trees.

The chaos in Linchuan City is still fermenting, and the news about Wei Changtian's assassination has been thoroughly spread.

And in such an atmosphere of panic, Su Qi left the Moon Viewing Inn.

The carriage drove through the turbulent streets, and the body shook slightly with the unevenness of the ground.

But Su Qi didn't feel anything around him, and his heart was still echoing the last and only condition given by Wei Changtian.

In ten days, I want to see Jing Guoqing
Su Qi is not stupid, of course he knows why Wei Changtian insists on seeing Jing Guoqing, and also understands why Jing Guoqing refuses to show up.

He knew even better that if Jing Guoqing really came to Linchuan, it would be impossible to go back.

Therefore, from the perspective of a courtier, Su Qi should undoubtedly report the matter truthfully now, and then use all his strength to fight Wei Changtian to the death, even if he really sacrificed the lives of a whole city, he must protect Jing Guoqing.

but
Taking a deep breath, Su Qi's eyes revealed a trace of bewilderment.

It was a struggle he had never had in his life.

As for how he will choose in the end, perhaps only he himself knows.

"How is it? Did you ask something?"

On the other side, when Su Qi was struggling in pain whether to "betray the emperor", Wei Changtian and Li Zimu had already returned to the study.

】

Sitting down behind the book, Wei Changtian asked in a deep voice:

"What are the origins of those ten people?"

"Master Hui, it was indeed sent by Jing Guoqing."

Li Zimu immediately replied very firmly: "However, they didn't inform Su Qi and Jing Guoqing of what they did today, and they should be instructed by others."

"really."

Frowning, Wei Changtian murmured: "But in this Dagan territory, who else can surpass Jing Guoqing and mobilize such a group of masters."

"And what is this person's purpose?"

"My lord, according to this servant, it's better to catch an assassin and ask about this matter."

Li Zimu suggested in a low voice: "Perhaps the truth will come to light."

"Right."

Wei Changtian pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, then I'll give it a try tonight and see if I can catch someone back."

"You go out of the city and go back to the Tengu Army."

"If I succeed, I will go directly to you and let you interrogate."

"Yes, the servant knows."

"."

Soon, Li Zimu left the study.

Wei Changtian casually picked up a book of poetry and flipped through it, but his mind was still thinking about the question just now.

Who on earth is it..
