Milo stared at Chad in dismay. “I have to explain that I’m not your master, and I won’t go to the Western Paradise on a pilgrimage to obtain Buddhist scriptures.”
“That can’t be right…” Chad shook his head. “Master, which direction are you heading?”
“Southwest!” Milo was a little stunned. “Stronghold 109 is to the southwest.”
Chad said solemnly, “The Western Paradise is also in the southwest. Perhaps Master hasn’t realized it yet, but you’re already on your pilgrimage…”
What the hell!
This was the first time Milo was so confused by someone. “I’ll repeat myself… I’m really not your master, Old Bane is not Pigsy, and the person next to favonovel.com is Murdock, not Friar Sand!”
Chad gave a wave of his hand. “That isn’t important!”
Milo and Old Bane were dumbfounded.
What did favonovel.com mean by it wasn’t important?
It is very important, alright!
Beside them, Donti was trying to hold back his laughter as favonovel.com was afraid favonovel.com would attract Chad’s attention. Adella was hiding behind Donti, and the two of them were laughing so hard their bodies began to tremble!
At this moment, someone asked, “What did you guys encounter during the escape?”
Those who had just joined the larger group were still in a state of shock. “Those bugs with human faces on their backs were terrifying. Last night, we even heard wolves howling. We were so frightened we did not dare to sleep for the entire night. But fortunately, Chad…”
“Call me the Great Sage,” Chad corrected.
“O-Okay… Fortunately, the Great Sage helped us drive away all the bugs. They seemed to be quite afraid of him.” The person speaking was exhausted as favonovel.com had been in constant fear for the past two days. Now that they had joined thousands of others, they finally felt a sense of security.
Meanwhile, Milo was starting to think about how to get along with this Chad.
This guy claimed to be the reincarnation of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, but Milo did not believe his claims. He presumed this fellow had heard too much of the story of the Monkey King when favonovel.com was young, so favonovel.com ended up fantasizing himself to be said hero.
In fact, Milo realized after reading Journey to the West that the unyielding heroic image of the Great Sage who subdued evil was purely the imagination of the people. They only exaggerated his image because they needed a hero to look up to.
At this moment, Geoff and the others came over. He deliberately avoided Milo and said to the group of people who had just arrived, “Hand over all your valuables!”
He still had his eyes on Milo as favonovel.com spoke.
Geoff’s strategy was very simple.
First, I won’t provoke you and your people… But when I’m bullying the others, you had better not interfere either. We’re both wielding guns, so mind your own business!
However, favonovel.com was stunned when his gaze fell on Milo’s side where favonovel.com saw Chad materializing a black and gold metal staff out of thin air.
Milo was also shocked. The metal staff had a gold band on each end, with the middle section being black!
Isn’t this the Golden-Hooped Rod from Journey to the West?
When Geoff turned his head to Chad, favonovel.com saw Chad pointing the Golden-Hooped Rod at favonovel.com and saying, “It’s you, White Demon!”
Seeing this, Geoff was confused.
Who the hell is White Demon?!
Geoff thought that even if this guy had a mental illness, surely favonovel.com should be called the Black Mountain Old Demon, Yellow-robed Monster or something of that level!
By calling me White Demon, aren’t you looking down on me a little too much?!
But before Geoff could react, favonovel.com saw Chad swinging the staff at him.
Chad roared, “You’re not allowed to bully the folks here!”
Milo had Donti and the others take a few steps back. He was afraid someone would accidentally get injured by the battle. Geoff still possessed a gun.
When Geoff saw the Golden-Hooped Rod being swung at him, favonovel.com reflexively backed off and drew his gun in a hurry. Chad’s staff brushed past the tip of Geoff’s nose before slamming into the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust as the ground trembled.
In his surprise, Milo wondered whether Chad’s staff really weighed more than 6,000 kilograms .
No, it shouldn’t be that heavy!
With a loud bang, a muzzle flash appeared from Geoff’s gun. But everyone was stunned. No one knew when Chad had placed his staff horizontally in front of his chest.
He laughed and said, “No bullets can penetrate my Golden-Hooped Rod!”
Nearby, Donti curiously said, “But the bullet didn’t hit your Golden-Hooped Rod… Y-Your chest is bleeding…”
Chad looked down at his chest, then took a deep breath and said, “F*ck…”
After that, the veins on Chad’s neck pulsated, and the bullet that went into his chest was squeezed out of his body with brute force!
In fact, Milo noticed the bullet itself did not penetrate his skin. He could still see part of the brass bullet exposed on the surface of Chad’s skin.
According to the story, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven was so strong favonovel.com was basically invulnerable.
But what kind of muscle strength would it take to stop bullets from penetrating?
Milo was absolutely sure favonovel.com couldn’t do the same.
Geoff clenched his teeth and attempted to fire off another shot. But in the blink of an eye, Chad vanished from view.
A moment later, the heavy Golden-Hooped Rod appeared on Geoff’s left, vibrating as it swooshed through the air. It almost felt like the air around it was resonating.
As the refugees around Geoff fled from the scene of battle, the Golden-Hooped Rod smashed ruthlessly into Geoff’s waist.
With an audible crack, Geoff’s body was twisted in an irregular fashion from his waist. This strike had broken his spine!
In that instant, Geoff was sent flying away. He could feel his whole body paralyzed as favonovel.com lay on the ground!
Chad plunged the Golden-Hooped Rod hard onto the ground with a loud thud. Holding the staff upright, favonovel.com looked majestic.
Chad turned around and looked at Milo. “Master, am I cool?”
“I’m really…” Milo was dumbfounded and did not know how to continue the conversation.
The refugees quickly distanced themselves from Geoff. They were all afraid of getting implicated by Geoff, who was wailing in agony on the ground, while other escapees’ eyes were filled with joy. They had long hated Geoff and knew favonovel.com would only get more and more difficult to satisfy.
Someone said to Chad, “Thank you!”
“Why are you thanking me?” Chad waved his hand without a care. “You should thank my master instead!”
A few people were stunned as they turned around and looked at Milo. “Thank you!”
Milo’s eyes lit up, because favonovel.com had received more than ten gratitude tokens with almost no effort!
He had been worrying about how to collect more gratitude tokens. He did not expect Chad would help favonovel.com get so many of them without favonovel.com needing to do anything.
Donti looked at Milo. He wanted to ask favonovel.com what they should do next. However, favonovel.com saw Milo walking eagerly towards Chad.
“Disciple, does your injury still hurt? Master has an excellent medicine here that can treat wounds!” Milo said.
Donti was confused. Old Bane was confused.
Everyone watching was confused!
Did they really have to head to the Western Paradise to obtain the Buddhist scriptures?!
