Chapter 657
Chapter Title: Dark Heaven Village
I couldn't help but tense up when I saw the Tipiṭaka Sorcerer of the Eight Legions Celestials for the second time. Even setting aside everything else, it was obvious he wasn't here with good intentions, and with Manggyang frozen by the time-stop spell, we were at a severe disadvantage. As one of the top figures among the Eight Legions Celestials, the Tipiṭaka Sorcerer possessed unimaginable power capable of suppressing even an awakened Yaksha of the Eight Legions, based on Yeo Dongbin's memories. Fighting him head-on like this meant a high chance of defeat, so anxiety quickly set in.
"No, defeat isn't the issue. If it comes to it, I can just kill myself quickly and reset. The real problem is why he's singling me out..."
It had to be because of the novel "Journey to the West". I glared at him and said,
"You're always tailing us. Is it because you want me to write that autobiography for you?"
The Tipiṭaka Sorcerer shrugged at my question and replied,
"That would be nice, but after our meeting, we concluded it was best to keep an eye on you."
"Our meeting?"
"I have reliable comrades I discuss important matters with from time to time."
