The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1280 I came from the mortal world, seeking immortality here!
Gao Yi chaired the meeting and first gave a detailed account of the current situation, making everyone understand what had happened on this land during this period, and also what Lin Chen, the Human Emperor, had done.

These people knew a little bit about the situation, but not all the inside story. Now that they heard it, they were all shocked.

When all the forces retreated, Lin Chen stood alone on the front line, defeating all the demon race's vanguard forces and evacuating a large number of people from the city to safety, saving countless lives.

Lin Chen infiltrated the enemy camp, tricked the immortals right under their noses, lured them away, and then defeated them one by one, finally completely suppressing the immortals behind the three demon clans.

勇！
That's incredibly brave!
After Gao Yi finished explaining the situation, he went on to explain the purpose of convening the meeting and finally invited Lin Chen to speak.

Lin Chen stood up from his seat and scanned his surroundings.

"I do these things not because I am the Human Emperor and therefore should do so, but because I am a member of the human race and I hope to do my part, to give it my all, so that I can have a clear conscience in the future."

“I don’t need your admiration or gratitude, because I do these things not for you, but for myself.”

"To be honest, I've never cared about the title of Human Emperor. Whether I am the Human Emperor or not, I am living my own life and doing what I want to do. The Human Emperor Seal gave me the title of Human Emperor, but it cannot control my personal will."

"I came from the human world, and I came here in search of immortality. The Wilderness is just a stop on my journey through life, not the beginning, nor will it be the end."

"The Wilderness Realm does not belong to me alone, but to everyone here. Today, you can take this opportunity to treat it as a vacation, do nothing, and wait for the next crisis to come. When that time comes, you can each accept your fate, or you can try to work together to do something and establish a new order and rules for this world."

"Rules and order are determined by everyone, and I will not interfere. But as long as everyone agrees and passes them, then whoever violates the rules in the future should be punished. The one who punishes them is not me, but yourselves."

“I am sitting here today not as the emperor, but as an advisor, guide, and observer.”

"Take control of your own destiny and your own future."

"That's it, you can continue."

Tens of thousands of people were stunned when they heard Lin Chen's words.

How could this be?
Is Lin Chen trying to shift the blame?
He doesn't care about the title of Emperor, nor the special rights granted to him by the Emperor?
In short, all they want to do is lie around like a couch potato and have no desire to do anything?
Although many people were meeting Lin Chen for the first time, they could all tell that Lin Chen was telling the truth.

Lin Chen came from the mortal realm. He hadn't stayed in the Desolate Realm for more than a few years. He would definitely go to the Immortal Realm in the future. This place was just a stopover for him. As for any responsibility or feelings he had for the Desolate Realm, that was all nonsense.

Why should someone else ascend to immortality and live a carefree life, instead of bearing the title of Human Emperor and risking their life and death for the human race?

Many people originally had a lot of opinions about Lin Chen, thinking that Lin Chen was only at the Nascent Soul stage, yet he could make the demon race retreat, wasn't it just because he was clinging to the coattails of an immortal?

Without immortals, what is he? He can't even beat himself.

Human Emperor?

Such a weak emperor commands the world, it's nothing but a case of a fox borrowing the tiger's power, who would be convinced?

However, after Lin Chen said these words, these people were speechless.

Command the world?

They don't care at all, they don't even want to.

They said they weren't doing these things for anyone else; they just wanted to, and they don't even need your gratitude!
Even his attendance at this meeting felt like he was forced into it, rather than wanting to show off.

The atmosphere at the scene became quite subtle for a moment.

Gao Yi had long known Lin Chen's mindset. Although he didn't expect Lin Chen to say this in front of everyone, he didn't panic and casually took over the topic.

"Mr. Lin is right. This world ultimately belongs to us. If we don't protect it, who will? Are we waiting for the immortals in the celestial realm?"

"Immortals have their own rules; they cannot arbitrarily interfere in the mortal realm..."

Gao Yi's long and eloquent speech diverted everyone's attention.

Many people originally thought, "Since we have a powerful figure to rely on, why should we work hard? Even if we work hard, will a word from a powerful figure be enough?"
Gao Yi's words, however, jolted everyone awake.

In the eyes of immortals, the people of the Wilderness Realm are like ants. If it weren't for the grudge between Fairy Xuanji and Wei Jiao, which immortal would have interfered?

If two ants are fighting in an ant kingdom, would you intervene and care about who wins?

What difference does it make to the immortals who wins?
People who had calmed their minds began to think seriously.

Lin Chen sat in his seat, watching the increasingly lively venue, a smile appearing in his eyes.

Great, everything is going according to plan!
