The Master of Divine Seal had instructed the seven of us to collect the Divine Seal Fragments, but he did not specify how he would reclaim the fragments we gathered.
Although he proposed a trade, "exchanging the Divine Seal Fragments for answers," not all of us would necessarily take the bait, nor did all of us have many questions. Among us were even dissenters like No.4 Xuanming and No.6.
Thus, Zhu Shi and I believed that the Master of Divine Seal had the means to forcibly reclaim all the Divine Seal Fragments at the final stage.
In the worst-case scenario, we, the so-called chosen ones, would face a dire fate. Simply put, once all the Divine Seal Fragments were collected, we would be of no use anymore. Naturally, there would be no need to fulfill any promises to useless individuals. He might not even intend to fulfill the last winner's wishes.
