Chapter 1320

After all, he knew exactly why Venerable Kasyapa had brought Marshal Tianpeng here.

As a good brother to Marshal Tianpeng, Sun Wukong was naturally very happy to see him join Tang Seng's team.

Before they even got close, Venerable Kasyapa spoke:

"Amitabha, Sanzang, it has been a long time!"

Tang Seng was only a mortal, so it was only when Venerable Kasyapa spoke that he noticed his arrival.

Thus, at this moment, Tang Seng immediately returned a Buddhist salute to Venerable Kasyapa.

"Sanzang, the demons and monsters you encounter on this journey will not be few; relying on Sun Wukong alone, I fear he will not be able to handle them."

"Now, I have gone to the Heavenly Court and asked Emperor Haotian to exempt Marshal Tianpeng from his punishment, so that he may become your disciple."

"He will escort you on your journey to avoid the harassment of demons and monsters, which will help you obtain the Western scriptures early."

Venerable Kasyapa's rhetoric would not be refused by any Fomen disciple; on the contrary, they would gladly accept it.

After all, this was Venerable Kasyapa personally coming forward to consider the matter of obtaining the scriptures for you.

Under these circumstances, one would even owe Venerable Kasyapa a favor.

But Tang Seng was different; because of Marshal Tianpeng's words earlier, Tang Seng already had opinions about him.

Now that Marshal Tianpeng was brought here personally by Venerable Kasyapa, a member of the Fomen,

and Tang Seng already disliked the Western Fomen disciples who practiced the Mahayana, the two factors combined...

Tang Seng directly refused Venerable Kasyapa's proposal.

"Venerable, I think this is unnecessary."

"Wukong's strength is powerful; he alone is enough to escort me."

"I am but a mortal, so I will not trouble Marshal Tianpeng to protect me."

"Besides, Marshal Tianpeng is an immortal of the Heavenly Court, and I am but a monk of the Great Tang; how can I become his master?"

"Regarding this matter, Venerable should look for someone else!"

Hearing this, the one who could not hold his temper was not Venerable Kasyapa, but Marshal Tianpeng.

One must know that Marshal Tianpeng had a very close relationship with Tang Seng's previous incarnation, Jin Chanzi.

However, at this moment, Marshal Tianpeng naturally could not give up the task of escorting Tang Seng to the West.

After all, even without considering the bond between Marshal Tianpeng and Tang Seng's previous incarnation, Jin Chanzi,

the large amount of exchange points that could be obtained from the various Primordial invasion missions on the road to the West

were something Marshal Tianpeng could not give up. ===== CHAPTER 1322 =====
