Now we can be certain that somewhere in the shadows lurks an Ancestor capable of turning ordinary people into monsters, and this Ancestor harbors hatred towards Buddhism... Huh? Why do I feel like there might be connections with the man in the black robe? The black-robed man slaughtered an entire museum just to seize a Buddha statue."
"Could the man in the black robe be that Ancestor, or perhaps just one of the pieces on the Ancestor's chessboard?"
"If the black-robed man is just a pawn, I can hardly imagine how mighty the hidden hand behind the scenes must be. And why would such a powerful entity use ordinary people?"
"This..."
Night had enveloped Suzhou City, which under the lights shone with splendor. Wang Lan left the Tianjian Bureau and headed home.
