The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2563 We won, but not completely!
"Yes, that's what it means!"

Shangguan Wenyin sighed, "Our original plan was more perfect, and it would have been almost impossible for him to escape. However, things went wrong, the news leaked, and we had to launch the operation ahead of schedule."

"Because the attack was launched hastily, many arrangements were not yet in place. Although we eventually defeated him, we left loopholes, which allowed him to escape."

Lin Chen asked worriedly, "Between the Sea God and the Sect Leader, surely the Sea God is higher, right?"

Shangguan Wenyin smiled and said, "Yes, under normal circumstances, even if someone succeeds in seizing power, as long as the Seal of the Sea God is still in his hands, he can openly order all his followers to follow him and fight against the usurper, and the vast majority of his followers will follow him."

"However, this matter is special because Senior Fan was the previous Sea God and the previous leader. He was tricked by that person, which led to the Sea God's Seal falling into his hands and thus becoming the new leader. Now that Senior Fan has revealed the truth, he has the identity of the previous leader and the Sea God, so most of the followers will choose to follow him."

"Under such circumstances, even if that person reveals the seal of the sea god, he cannot be considered a legitimate sea god and may not have many followers. Instead, he will expose himself and attract our pursuit."

Lin Chen understood immediately after hearing his explanation.

The Seal of the Sea God—isn't that the imperial seal of an ancient dynasty?
The person who possesses the Imperial Seal of the State is the true chosen one, recognized and followed by everyone. But if you are a thief and steal the Imperial Seal of the State, who will follow you and who will be your follower?

Fan Tianxing, the man who once held the mandate of heaven, has returned to reveal the truth. Even though he no longer possesses the Imperial Seal, everyone will still acknowledge him.

"Besides being a token of the sea god, what other use does the Seal of the Sea God have?"

Shangguan Wenyin explained, "The Seal of the Sea God is the source of the Sea God Cult and the source of all Sea God Tokens. In addition, the Seal of the Sea God is also a powerful innate spiritual treasure with spirituality."

Wow, that's amazing?

Lin Chen's eyes lit up immediately: "What does it mean to have spirituality? Is there a spirit inside?"

Shangguan Wenyin shook his head: "You can understand it as consciousness. It is conscious and alive, but it is not a person, not the spirit of the vessel you are talking about."

Isn't this the same as his own Emperor's Seal?

The one who possesses the Human Emperor's Seal will become the Human Emperor. The Human Emperor's Seal will choose the right person for itself, and it seems that the Sea God's Seal is similar.

Shangguan Wenyin sighed, "The Seal of the Sea God contains the power of countless wishes. Possessing the Seal of the Sea God can obtain powerful supernatural abilities. For example, whoever chants his name can be sensed by him and can look down upon him from the void, just like a god." "That is why only those who possess the Seal of the Sea God can truly be called the Sea God. In that previous battle, if the Seal of the Sea God hadn't remembered that Senior Fan was his previous master and hadn't fully helped him, we wouldn't have been able to win at all."

"Even so, Senior Fan was seriously injured and needs to go into seclusion to heal. However, the good news is that in order to escape, he used the power of will stored in the Seal of the Sea God. Now that we are strictly controlling the Sea God's Token and monitoring him secretly, it will not be easy for him to replenish his power of will significantly."

Lin Chen asked, "After all this time, you haven't completely won yet?"

Shangguan Wenyin looked helpless: "The Sea God who possesses the Seal of the Sea God is a god-like being. It's already quite remarkable that we were able to win and reach this point."

"We are now secretly searching for his whereabouts. Once we find him, we will have the upper hand this time, and he won't be able to escape so easily."

Lin Chen poured cold water on the idea, saying, "But you still have to be able to find them. If they're really determined to hide and won't use the Sea God's Seal for the time being, how are you going to find them?"

Shangguan Wenyin nodded: "Yes, we are not afraid of him making any moves. Even if he manages to seize many Sea God Tokens, as long as he exposes himself, everything will be fine. What we are worried about is him hiding away, taking his time, or even taking the Sea God Seal to a distant land..."

"The Seal of the Sea God is the source. If he takes the Seal of the Sea God to a celestial realm without faith or the power of will, even if he starts from scratch, it probably won't be long before he can restore the glory of the Sea God Sect."

Lin Chen nodded without saying anything.

He understands the situation, but there's nothing he can do to help.

Shangguan Wenyin clearly understood this as well, and smiled as he changed the subject: "Since you're here, stay for a while and let me do my part as your host."

Lin Chen replied casually, "I was originally planning to go to the Western Prison, but I was worried you wouldn't be able to find me later, so I took the initiative to come. Seeing that you're quite busy, we won't take up too much of your time. We'll just stay one night and then leave."

Shangguan Wenyin said anxiously, "What's the rush? No matter how busy I am, I'll still have time to spend with you. It's a rare opportunity for me to come..."

"forget it."

Lin Chen joked, "You're not a great beauty, so I don't need you to accompany me. If we want to go out and have fun, wouldn't it be better for me to go with Shang Wenyan?"
