Chapter 196 Isn’t that your master?
Yin Xia glanced at her and began to explain slowly and calmly.
"This is related to our responsibilities as a teacher."
Shangguan Sui frowned slightly, a little surprised, "Is he from your sect?"
Yin Xia nodded and answered gently.
"When a book is finished, a book god is born. The book god's responsibility is to protect the plot from being damaged. And our master is the book god of this book."
"Our responsibility as a master is to maintain the plot, from the first master to the present, and it has been passed down from generation to generation."
Shangguan Sui's pupils trembled and he stammered.
"So you, you sent Zhu Ni to kill me because I ruined the plot?"
【Oh my god, it turned out to be like this! 】
Yin Xia chuckled when he heard this, and his expression softened a lot.
"If I really wanted to kill you, I wouldn't have sent Zhu Yan."
Shangguan Sui almost laughed out loud when he heard this.
[It turns out that Zhu Ni is so useless in Yin Xia's eyes hahahaha]
Yin Xia chuckled, and in the blink of an eye returned to her original calm and indifferent appearance.
"I asked Zhu Yan to kill you, but I actually had another purpose."
"What's the purpose?"
"Live you to Xia Country." Yin Xia said slowly.
Shangguan Sui's eyes widened immediately, "So you did it on purpose!"
"You deliberately let Zhu Yan assassinate me because you knew he would not succeed, and you told me everything! You deliberately aroused my curiosity and made me come to Xia Country on my own initiative!"
Yin Xia nodded her chin, "That's true."
Shangguan Sui couldn't help but gasp.
【I was actually tricked! 】
"But, what is your purpose in asking me to come to Xia Country?"
"You haven't seen me since I came here, so why did you ask me to come here?"
Yin Xia raised her eyes and looked at Shangguan Sui. "What you have accomplished in Xia Country these days is why I called you here."
Shangguan Sui frowned upon hearing this and began to think intently.
"I have been in Xia Country these days... I have exposed He Tian's plan and saved the Seventh Prince and the Emperor..."
Recalling this, Shangguan Sui was suddenly stunned.
She raised her eyes to look at Yin Xia, met his deep eyes, and immediately understood.
He blurted out: "Your purpose is to make me come to Xia Country to save people!"
Yin Xia raised her lips slightly, her voice still calm and peaceful.
"You're smart, that's what you say."
Shangguan Sui frowned in confusion, unable to figure it out.
"But you also know the plot. If you want to save Xia Kingdom, why don't you tell the emperor yourself?"
Yin Xia looked at her and said, "Because I found that you have a very special ability that I don't have."
"What ability?"
[What special abilities do I have? Why don’t I know about them? ]
Yin Xia's voice was as calm as ever.
"You can easily make others trust you, and you can easily solve some problems. I discovered this when you were in Otsuki Country."
"I don't know why. I can't guess."
"It's not written in the book, and my master didn't tell me either. I can only guess that it's some deviations and loopholes caused by tearing the plot apart."
Shangguan Sui also seemed to remember something.
[It seems to be true. Every time I handle things, it goes very smoothly...]
Thinking of this, Shangguan Sui suddenly stopped and looked up at Yin Xia.
"That's not right, but isn't your job to maintain the plot? Why did you deliberately lure me here and let me ruin the plot?"
"Isn't this a violation of your master's duty?"
When Yin Xia heard this, his originally calm face suddenly turned three points gloomy.
"Zhu Yan should have told you that my master passed away."
Shangguan Sui nodded, "Zhu Yan did tell me that the day we first arrived in Xia Country."
"Could this be related to your master's death?"
Yin Xia lowered her eyes and nodded slowly.
"Master knew from the beginning that you were a book traveler, and he was originally planning to kill you."
"But he found that the changes you brought about were not necessarily bad things..."
"The original book tells the story of how Xiao Ziyuan unified the Three Kingdoms step by step and eventually became the emperor."
"So the Great Yue Kingdom must be in enough chaos and the people must be living in poverty, so that Xiao Ziyuan's rise to power and rise can have a certain legitimacy, and the plot will be reasonable."
"But you changed all that. Dayue Kingdom did not fall into war, and the people still live and work in peace and contentment."
Shangguan Sui pursed his lips and spoke softly.
"I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just couldn't bear to see lives disappear and die in front of me."
“When I enter the plot, I am no longer a reader on the sidelines. I have a connection with each individual and develop feelings for them. I can’t just sit back and watch them die!
Yin Xia nodded, "My master thought the same, so he didn't send anyone to kill you."
"According to the original book, the rebellion of the Marquis of Zhenbei, the epidemic, the flood, how many people will die, how many families will be broken up..."
"And all of this is just to make Xiao Ziyuan the emperor?"
Yin Xia looked down at Shangguan Sui, and the two looked at each other. His voice was very serious.
"Sui Sui, you changed the plot, but you are right. It was you who saved the Great Moon Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom."
Shangguan Sui's eyes turned red when he heard this.
She never thought someone would say this to her so seriously.
"But how could your master die?"
[Could it be because of me...?]
Yin Xia sighed, "My master refused to kill you, which angered the Book God. So he sacrificed himself to calm the Book God's anger."
"Before he died, he told me to find a way to get you to come to Xia Country and help save Xia Country together."
From the moment his master died, he made up his mind.
We must resist this plot together with Master.
He didn't want to see so many people die, just to pave the way for Xiao Ziyuan to become emperor.
Shangguan Sui blinked, somewhat confused.
"The Book God...isn't he still alive? Isn't that your master?"
Yin Xia shook his head. "The Book God is not dead. As long as the plot exists, he will always exist."
"But because the plot has deviated, the Book God's power is getting weaker and weaker. Plus, my master died a martyr, so the Book God won't come out for the time being."
Shangguan Sui nodded.
[So that’s how it is…]
"The plot has deviated from the original book. I can see that Xiao Ziyuan no longer wants to be the emperor."
"He is getting further and further away from his destined line, and no one knows what will happen next."
"Including your ending..."
Shangguan Sui raised his head and looked at her, "No matter what the outcome is, I accept it."
"Even if I were given the opportunity to choose again, I would still do the same thing. I would not watch my loved ones die in front of me. I can't do it."
Yin Xia looked at her with great admiration.
Then he said, "My master told me the day he passed away that anyone who ruins the plot will have to pay a corresponding price."
Shangguan Sui narrowed his eyes slightly, "What's the price?"
