This was the main reason why Wang Mang absolutely could not stay!
He did not want to become collateral damage alongside someone whose fate had already been decided.
Furthermore, there were probably Gods and Buddhas paying attention to Tang Sanzang's group once they started their journey, so he would also attract unwanted attention if he stuck around.
Still, he had a good impression of the Nanshan King. It was too bad that he could not even intervene in this matter.
After all, what if Wang Mang warned the Nanshan King and attracted the attention of all the Gods and Buddhas?
It would not be worth it!
Thinking this, Wang Mang shook his head and refused.
"I appreciate Your Majesty's good intentions, but I still plan to seek discipleship under a master in order to grow stronger in the future."
