Chapter 781

Beneath the Saints, all are ants.

As long as one is not a Saint, one can never truly be regarded as an opponent by a Saint.

Even though Luo Fu had previously displayed combat power unmatched beneath the Saints,

to the Two Western Saints, Luo Fu was merely a slightly larger ant.

The Two Western Saints valued this wager not only because they wished to obtain the Nine-Petal World-Ending Black Lotus in Luo Fu's possession, but most importantly because there was another participant in this bet: Saint Tongtian.

Although Saint Tongtian had scarcely intervened in the wager, the Two Western Saints still regarded Saint Tongtian as their opponent.

As for Luo Fu, in the eyes of the Two Western Saints, he was on the same level as Daoist Randeng.

This was also why, when the Journey to the West began, the Two Western Saints did not appear themselves but sent Daoist Randeng instead.

In the eyes of the Two Western Saints, Luo Fu and Daoist Randeng were equals.

Only now did the Two Western Saints truly realize that their true opponent in the Journey to the West wager was not Saint Tongtian, but Luo Fu.

The Two Western Saints understood Saint Tongtian very well.

Therefore, they could be one hundred percent certain that the changes in the pilgrimage team were not the work of Saint Tongtian.

If Saint Tongtian possessed such ability, the Jie Sect would not have been so utterly crushed in the Divine Investiture War.

Among the six, Saint Taishang was the most mysterious and inscrutable; the other five Saints held great respect for Saint Taishang.
