"Master, should I follow them..."
Little White spoke slowly, then drew a hand across his throat.
He had now taken human form and had more or less figured out that these divine spirits' lingering souls were also a bunch who clung to life and feared death.
"There's no need. That isn't our objective. As that tornado said, the immortals and the Saint Body are what we came for."
