Lin Chen is currently not a saint; he must guard against the backlash from those under control.
Hadn't Lin Chen rarely appeared together with Lord Charm Erosion before?
Isn't it precisely because of the fear of backlash from the saint?
Even if I am at the peak quasi-saint, I am still no match in front of a saint. If a saint was to truly scheme against me, I might be instantly wiped out.
When I don't have enough strength to fight the strong while being weak, counterattacks and schemes happen often. If not carefully handled, I might be overturned in an instant.
Duanmu Wen is a saint with no bottom line; to manage him, there must be an all-encompassing strategy.
Duanmu Wen also knows this. He was originally never truly devoted, with his heart full of humiliation and anger. He is bound to rebel whenever he gets the chance.
