The Graceful and Stunning Boss's Wife

Chapter 458: Three Trials


Once again thrown out by the Martial Monks inside the Buddha Tower, it was already nighttime.

On this day, Su Ming didn't know how many times he was thrown outside, nor how many new insights he gained.

He could clearly feel that these insights brought not only a change in temperament but also understanding of Martial Arts and life.

Every time he re-entered the tower, he lasted longer under the Martial Monk's hands.

Perhaps even Su Ming hadn't realized that he had significantly improved in strength through constant assimilation.

Returning to the meditation room, Su Ming closed his eyes and began to relive the day's battle.

The array at Qianling Temple was indeed extremely intricate, and the coordination between the Martial Monks was remarkably cohesive.

Often, he could fend off one, but soon several more would fill the gap.

Ultimately, he was alone; no matter how high his martial abilities were, he couldn't handle everything simultaneously.

"No matter what, I must break through the Buddha Tower to obtain Water Lowering Its Head!"

That night, Su Ming didn't sleep; he kept pondering the day's battle.

He didn't know why, but he felt increasingly excited, even eager to challenge the tower again.

The next day, Su Ming appeared outside the Buddha Tower once more, and the monks all entered the tower.

After that, the sound of chanting reached Su Ming's ears.

Su Ming steadied his breath, then sat cross-legged on the ground.

Any single temptation of desire could never trouble Su Ming's inner peace.

But just at that moment, the frequency of the monks' chanting began to change, and the contents began to shift as well.

The four sensations of desire continually switched order as they surged towards Su Ming.

Before long, Su Ming finally couldn't hold on anymore and stood up angrily.

Seeing this, the Martial Monks surrounded Su Ming in the center.

As the battle started, Su Ming's strength had significantly improved compared to yesterday.

After a few rounds, many Martial Monks were knocked to the ground by Su Ming.

Yet, as time went by, Su Ming's stamina gradually couldn't hold, and ultimately, he was thrown out again.

"Still not possible yet?"

Su Ming punched the ground, showing anger on his face.

"Benefactor, if you feel it's too difficult, perhaps it's better to give up,"

Bi Qing appeared beside Su Ming and softly said.

"Impossible! I must save Sister Zhen!"

Su Ming snorted coldly, ignoring Bi Qing, and continued to contemplate on his own.

Watching Su Ming's contemplating back, Bi Qing nodded in satisfaction.

In this way, by the fourth day, when Su Ming walked into the Buddha Tower again, his mood had undergone a different change.

No matter how the monks chanted, Su Ming maintained a smile on his face.

That feeling was as if nothing external could alter his inner self.

When the chanting ended, all the monks stood up and pressed their palms together towards Su Ming.

"Thank you to all the brothers for the help these days, Su Ming, has greatly benefited."

"Amitabha, Junior Brother Su, being able to pass my Four Frenzies Array, you are now considered an Outer Disciple of Qianling Temple. Please remember, Junior Brother Su, in the future, act with a clear conscience, do good deeds, and don't ask about prospects."

Su Ming bowed to the monks around him and then left the Buddha Tower.

At the entrance of the Buddha Tower, Bi Qing was waiting for him.

"I didn't expect you really figured it out."

"Indeed, it is not completely wrong to experience desire. The most important is one's inner self. Carrying a naked woman across the river is a trivial matter, forgotten soon after. But if you get caught up in it endlessly, then you are on a wrong path."

"It's never the desire that's wrong, it's always the person."

Inside the Scripture Pavilion, Shen Mengxue slowly opened her eyes and closed the book in front of her.

Guanglin, the host, came over, chuckled lightly.

"Young lady, you have a connection with Buddha. Why not stay here for purification?"

Shen Mengxue shook her head: "Thank you for the kind offer, Host, but I still have attachments in my heart, unable to cut them off."

"Naturally, being free from attachments, even I cannot achieve it."

Guanglin gently stroked his beard, looking at Shen Mengxue with more admiration in his eyes.

"I hope this enlightenment will bring you changes."

"You have connections with Buddha, we will surely meet again in the future."

Shen Mengxue didn't respond to Guanglin's words.

During this time, she read countless Buddhist classics, impossible to fully comprehend them in a short period.

Just like a person tasting water, knowing the warmth or cold within.

Yet, this had greatly changed Shen Mengxue's mindset, altering her perspective on viewing things.

"Outside should be finished as well. Let me take you out."

Saying this, Guanglin turned to walk outside.

Shen Mengxue followed Guanglin's host and walked out of the Scripture Pavilion together.

Being exposed to sunlight again, Shen Mengxue squinted her eyes from the glare.

As she could see the scene in front, someone had already appeared before her.

"Boss lady, where have you been all this time?"

Su Ming quickly embraced Shen Mengxue warmly.

Though he knew Shen Mengxue would be safe, he still missed her dearly after so long apart.

Looking at Su Ming's face, a blush appeared on Shen Mengxue's cheeks.

After being apart for quite some time, it seemed both had changed a bit.

"I've passed Guanglin's host's test."

Upon hearing this, Su Ming glanced at Guanglin host standing beside him.

Guanglin host smiled without speaking.

"Thank you, Guanglin host. By the way, we have another companion, he..."

"Come with me."

Following Guanglin's host lead, the two arrived at the training room.

At this moment, Bai Mo was battling with eighteen Martial Monks in the training room.

After so many days of battle, Bai Mo's strength had also progressed by leaps and bounds.

Facing the monks' attacks now, Bai Mo could only defend, but he handled it with ease.

However, Su Ming knew if he kept defending, it would only be a matter of time before he lost.

Seeing this, Su Ming charged into the array, grabbing a stick that was about to hit Bai Mo from behind.

"Wow, impressive."

With Su Ming's joining, Bai Mo immediately felt relieved and started counterattacking.

On Su Ming's side, facing the Martial Monks' attacks, he maintained orderly offense and defense without arrogance or impatience, unconcerned for immediate gains and losses.

After an indefinite duration, both parties stopped fighting.

They knew that continuing to fight would not yield any outcome.

"This trial, consider you passed."

Looking at Bai Mo, Guanglin host's smile grew even brighter.

"What does it mean?"

Upon hearing this, Su Ming looked bewilderedly at Guanglin host.

"To get Water Lowering its Head, you must pass trials. You have three people, but only one needs to succeed. You faced the Four Frenzies Array of desire sensations, Bi Xue faced the calmness of chanting, and this Bai benefactor dealt with the siege of eighteen Martial Monks."

"Of course, despite this, not a single person has succeeded in obtaining Water Lowering Its Head since I was a Little Novice Monk.
