Songshan Temple was bustling these days because Master Jinghui was holding sermons there. The incense was burning strong in the temple, after all, Master Jinghui was a renowned high monk throughout the Great Qing, and many believers wanted to come and admire the master, hoping to catch some of the Buddhist essence.
Some even thought that if they could receive a word of advice or a blessing from Master Jinghui, they would be at peace for the rest of their lives.
Song Ci, in fact, was not particularly keen on listening to sermons and had no interest whatsoever in meeting Master Jinghui.
Why?
She felt guilty.
Everyone said that Master Jinghui was a renowned high monk. What if he saw through her and discovered she was a foreign soul and decided to exorcise her as a demon?
It's not that Song Ci considered herself a demon or evil spirit, but some high monks did fancy themselves as heavenly enforcers and took to extremism.
