In the meditation room, Shen Mengxue slowly awakened from unconsciousness.

"Where is this place?"

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, Shen Mengxue vaguely remembered kneeling in the great hall before she fainted, wasn't she?

"Awake? This is the meditation room. You knelt for too long and fainted!!!"

At this moment, a voice came, followed by Bai Mo walking over.

"Drink some water, I just checked you out, it's nothing serious."

Shen Mengxue nodded, then seemed to remember something, and looked around.

"Stop looking, Su Ming hasn't come back yet. It seems he won't be back all night."

Upon hearing this, Shen Mengxue immediately wanted to go accompany Su Ming.

But as soon as she got off the ground, Shen Mengxue's knees gave way, and she directly knelt on the ground.

"I told you, you've been kneeling for too long. Tonight, don't go anywhere!!!"

While saying this, Bai Mo helped Shen Mengxue onto the kang.

Just then, there was a knock on the door from outside.

Bai Mo opened the door, only to see an old man with white eyebrows and beard.

"Benefactor, may I ask if Benefactor Shen is here?"

Bai Mo stepped aside, allowing Guanglin, the abbot, to walk in.

"Benefactor, my Dharma name is Guanglin, and I am the abbot of Qianling Temple."

Upon hearing it was the abbot, Shen Mengxue wanted to get up, but was refused by Abbot Guanglin.

"Benefactor Shen, I want to know, why have you come?"

Shen Mengxue explained what had happened before to Abbot Guanglin.

Abbot Guanglin nodded, his tone still very calm.

"So you came to save someone. The Buddha said saving one life is better than building a seven-tier pagoda. But do you really have the heart to save?"

"Of course we do."

Shen Mengxue immediately said, "If not, why would we come here?"

"In fact, everyone who comes here says they do, but without exception, they all fail!!!"

Saying this, Abbot Guanglin stepped forward a few paces and came to Shen Mengxue's side.

He reached out and gently placed his hand on Shen Mengxue's head.

"If what you said is true, if you truly have the heart, then come with me."

After saying this, Abbot Guanglin turned to leave.

"But, Abbot, her knees…"

"If you can't overcome this level of difficulty, what use is firm resolve?"

Hearing Abbot Guanglin's words, Shen Mengxue said no more, put on her shoes, and stepped onto the ground.

The moment she touched the ground, Shen Mengxue's face once again showed a look of pain.

Bai Mo wanted to help, but Shen Mengxue directly refused him!!!

"Bai Mo, thank you, but many things cannot be solved just by helping."

While saying this, Shen Mengxue followed behind Abbot Guanglin.

The pain from her knees made every step she took very difficult.

Yet even so, she did not back down and continued to follow Abbot Guanglin step by step.

Soon, the two arrived in a hall.

Abbot Guanglin stopped, turned, and looked at Shen Mengxue.

With a wave of his hand, the door was shut tight.

"Heh, if you want the water to lower its head, you need to give something in return."

Until the east showed a pale white, representing a new day emerging silently.

In the grand hall, Bi Qing also opened his eyes and looked forward.

Su Ming was still kneeling there, yet it was clear Su Ming was at the end of his strength.

His body was trembling, and his legs were already numb.

Kneeling there was merely due to his tenacious willpower.

Bi Qing walked to Su Ming's side, bowed before the statue, and then said, "Benefactor, come with me."

"I won't leave. If I don't get the water to lower its head, I won't leave."

Su Ming's voice was hoarse, indicating his physical exhaustion had reached its peak.

"I understand, but if you want the water to lower its head, don't you need to rest well?"

Hearing Bi Qing's words, Su Ming slowly lifted his head, looked at him, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.

Then, with Bi Qing's help, Su Ming slowly returned to the meditation room where Bai Mo was.

Upon entering the meditation room, no one was there.

"Senior Brother, where are they?"

Su Ming looked at Bi Qing with a puzzled expression.

"They have their tasks, and you have your mission, Benefactor. Rest well."

After saying this, Bi Qing lit three sticks of incense for Su Ming, then left.

Gradually, Su Ming only felt his eyelids fighting, and he involuntarily closed his eyes.

This time, Su Ming slept very deeply, very soundly.

He dreamed, and in the dream, there was no one else, only Lin Yanan.

He looked at Lin Yanan, and Lin Yanan was looking at him.

For some reason, there seemed to be many words to say, yet none came out in the end.

When Su Ming woke up, it was already the next morning.

This sleep had completely replenished all his exhaustion of many days.

Furthermore, despite not eating for so long, Su Ming did not feel hungry.

At the same moment Su Ming got up, the door to the meditation room opened, and Bi Qing walked in.

"It seems you slept well, then come with me."

Su Ming then followed Bi Qing to the dining hall.

Bi Qing brought Su Ming a vegetarian dish and some buns.

At the sight of food, Su Ming couldn't hold back and started devouring it.

To Su Ming's surprise, the usually plain buns tasted so sweet in this moment.

The vegetables he usually disliked were so delicious at this moment.

Seeing Su Ming enjoying his meal this much, a smile appeared on Bi Qing's face.

"Tell me about the purpose of your visit."

Then, Su Ming began to tell Bi Qing about what had happened initially.

Even after listening, Bi Qing's expression showed no change, as if he was just listening to a story.

Perhaps they had heard too many stories to have time for compassion or sorrow.

"I must do something, no matter for whom, especially because it is my fault towards her."

Thinking of this, Su Ming felt his heart ache once more.

Bi Qing simply smiled faintly and silently recited "Amitabha."

After eating and drinking to satisfaction, Bi Qing took Su Ming to the backyard of Qianling Temple.

This was the true monastery, where the monks of the temple resided.

Many Little Novice Monks were cleaning, while Martial Monks were training.

The entire Qianling Temple didn't have many Martial Monks, only thirty or so.

Yet the aura emanating from each of these thirty people was far from simple.

Seeing Bi Qing arrive, these people stopped what they were doing and joined hands in greeting.

"Brother Bi Qing!"

Bi Qing nodded in acknowledgment.

"Fellow brothers, prepare the Four Frenzies Array for the benefactor."

Upon hearing Bi Qing's words, these people didn't hesitate and began to get busy.

Bi Qing then turned to look at Su Ming.

"Benefactor, please."
