Chapter 985: Reap What You Sow
Although it was just a wisp of a Sage’s divine thought, defeating it was still beyond his current capabilities.
After all, a Sage was someone who had transcended mortality. How could he, a mortal, possibly hope to stand against it?
Therefore, he had no choice but to find another way.
He had had to rack his brain long and hard to think of a solution. It wasn’t until he read about the Rebellious Spirit in an ancient book that he finally had a clear idea on what he should do.
The plan was simple. Keep the Chief Libationist busy with the Rebellious Spirit and kill Chu Wangsun in the meantime.
The Chief Libationist’s divine thought was attached to Chu Wangsun. Once his host was dead, he would disappear after a short time, meaning that he did not have to worry about the vengeance of a Sage for too long.
The plan sounded good, but there were obstacles he had to overcome to put it mildly. For one, a Rebellious Spirit was extremely rare. Tracking one down and obtaining it was no easy feat either. Even with the Annon Sutra to guide him, it still cost him a lot of time and energy to finally acquire one.
Judging from the results though, it was well worth the investment.
“You can rest in peace now, Chu Wangsun!”
