    To move the story forward, and actually give the MC proper motivation.
    And also, people need to die for it to live up to it's name.

    I said PA is not limited to the MC.

    I didn't say everyone can be saved by PA.

    I know the MC needs to have motivation but... I just hope some random character that we don't emotionally relate to be the one that will die. Like Qin Yu and the city that was destroyed by the guy from Zhou clan.

    That's not called Plot Armour, it's called good friends.

    C'mon, it's not like you're the one living in that world. The MC will have his own views and feelings of this shit.
