I am the villain in the book

What is a "Sacred Mountain"?

What does Li Qi want to do?

What does the phrase "It's him" mean?

No matter what, Wei Changtian never imagined that a casual remark like "Humans can conquer nature" would plunge him into a vortex far greater than the Yan Luo affair.

And before all this arrives, he will remain completely unaware.

The higher a person's position, the more people and things they are connected to, the more common these involuntary things become.

It is no exaggeration to say that Wei Changtian's life now concerns the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people; his choice can even change the fate of a country.

There is a line in the movie "Spider-Man" from his previous life: With great power comes great responsibility.

Wei Changtian doesn't think he has any superhuman abilities, nor does he want to bear too much responsibility. At the very least, he is not like Xiao Feng, willing to be responsible for the people of the world.

The reason is simple: it's too tiring.

However, things in this world are like this, the occurrence and development of many things cannot be determined by someone's subjective will.

Rather than saying that this is the arrangement of fate, it is better to say that it is an inescapable cause and effect.

Perhaps when Wei Changtian decided to come to Fengyuan, all subsequent events were destined to happen.

Just as when Ning Yongnian sent You Jia to approach Wei Changtian, it was destined that one day he would "suffer the consequences."

Three days later.

Only Wei Changtian and You Jia were in the tightly closed room, and the atmosphere was quite strange.

Playing with the token engraved with the character "Liu" in his hand, Wei Changtian suddenly looked up and asked:

"When you met them, did you reveal any flaws?"

"No."

You Jia replied quickly: "I always remember your previous instructions, I think they won't notice."

"That's good."

Wei Changtian asked again: "Where are they staying now?"

"An inn in the east of the city."

You Jia thought for a while, then shook her head: "But it might be fake."

"Mm."

Nodding, Wei Changtian stopped talking and began to think about how to deal with this sudden situation.

Good家伙, last time he directed a self-inflicted bitter drama, and now it's going to be real?

The plan is good, but unfortunately, You Jia ran to tell him as soon as she received the order.

And what he has to do next is very simple.

First, cooperate with You Jia to perform a scene of "assassination failure" to give Ning Yongnian an explanation.

Then, send You Jia back to the latter's side as a dagger that can stab Ning Yongnian in the back at any time.

In fact, Wei Changtian had this plan a long time ago, but he had never found a suitable opportunity before.

Unexpectedly, Ning Yongnian is now offering this opportunity himself.

"Girl You Jia."

Having made up his mind, Wei Changtian looked at You Jia and spoke again: "Do you know why Ning Yongnian didn't pursue the matter when you didn't kill me last time?"

"..."

You Jia suddenly looked up.

This question has actually troubled her for a long time.

After all, Dragon Guard people only have two paths to take after failing to perform a mission.

Either die, or return to the capital.

But why didn't Ning Yongnian react at all when she didn't kill Wei Changtian last time?

He neither sent someone to kill her to silence her, nor did he ask her to return to the capital, and he didn't even have any doubts that she could still stay by Wei Changtian's side.

If Ning Yongnian already knew that she had betrayed, then why would he order her to assassinate Young Master Wei again now?

This is undoubtedly illogical and contradictory, but You Jia has never suspected that all of this is a game set up by Wei Changtian.

After all, the latter had promised not to deceive her.

"Young Master, why?"

You Jia asked in a low voice, but immediately added: "If this matter is too involved, it doesn't matter if Young Master doesn't say it."

"It's okay, you should know these things."

Wei Changtian shook his head, and said the prepared rhetoric without changing his expression.

"Girl You Jia, your identity is special. If Ning Yongnian knows that you want to leave the Dragon Guard, you should know what will happen to you."

"In order to protect you, I can only find a way to prevent Ning Yongnian from knowing that you are already my person."

You are my person.

This "person" can be understood in two ways—

One is subordinate, and the other is woman.

You Jia obviously understood it as the latter, so her cheeks couldn't help but feel a little hot.

"Then, then how did Young Master do it?"

"Li Huaizhong."

Wei Changtian continued to make up stories: "After saying goodbye to you that night, I found Li Huaizhong who had not yet left Shuzhou and reached a deal with him."

"He will tell Ning Yongnian that he failed to pass the order to you, and he will also persuade Ning Yongnian not to use you for the time being."

"Since you didn't receive the order, then not being able to kill me is not your fault."

"In this way, you can continue to stay by my side, and you don't have to worry about being hunted down by the Dragon Guard."

"..."

Objectively speaking, although this statement is not too problematic, it is actually quite far-fetched.

How did he find Li Huaizhong?

What conditions could make Li Huaizhong betray Ning Yongnian?

And why would Ning Yongnian listen to Li Huaizhong's persuasion, and really not use You Jia for a long time?

Wei Changtian certainly knew these doubts, and had already prepared corresponding explanations.

But who knew that You Jia didn't have any doubts after listening, which directly made all his preparations useless.

"So that's how it is..."

Soft black hair hung on the side of her face, You Jia lowered her head, her voice was very soft.

"Young Master, you must have paid a great price to get Li Huaizhong to agree to this, right."

"Someone like me is not worth being so good to me..."

"I, I don't deserve it..."

"..."

No, why is she so moved??

This makes me feel very guilty!

Listening to You Jia's intermittent voice, and the suppressed sobs in her voice, Wei Changtian couldn't say what he wanted to say for a long time.

An orphan who lost her parents since childhood; has been living in a secret organization without any human touch since she was a child; the man she once loved only knows how to use her endlessly.

Without a doubt, this kind of life experience is extremely miserable.

That's why You Jia is now facing the kindness of others and saying "I don't deserve it".

Even if this "kindness" only exists in Wei Changtian's mouth.

Perhaps, she really thinks she doesn't deserve it...

Although Wei Changtian has done many villainous things, he is essentially not a cold-blooded person.

Therefore, at this moment, he suddenly had an idea—

Why not just stop here?

This idea sprouted and grew rapidly in his mind, and also made Wei Changtian unconsciously reach out a hand, slowly wanting to hold You Jia's constantly shaking shoulders.

Alas, he is still soft-hearted after all, obviously the Dragon Finch in the original book...

"Boom!"

A loud noise suddenly exploded in his heart. When the name "Dragon Finch" was remembered again, all the kindness disappeared in an instant.

"There's nothing worthy or unworthy, don't say that."

Comforting her, his palm was still gently pressed on You Jia's shoulder.

However, this sentence and this action were no longer from the heart.
