Chu Li saw Su Ru out, and when he returned, Xue Ling had taken away the dishes to waro with the wine

Chu Li s may coood in her work and he could only adapt to it

Shortly, Xue Ling served the dishes once ood

Chu Li put down his wine cup and started eating, thinking about the Sentient Menace while he was doing so

Xue Ling washed up the plates and returned to his side Chu Li suddenly asked her,” Xue Ling, do you know any Buddhist Austerities?”

She shook her head, ”no, I don't”

”Can you read, then?”

”Yes, of course!”

”Can you read Buddhist Scriptures?”

Xue Ling nodded, ”…maybe? But Master, I do not believe in Buddhism!”

Ever since her father was killed, she stopped believing in Buddha Herto Buddha at home and burnt incense and recited Buddhist scriptures on a daily basis

Xue Ling never batted an eye and did not bother at all If Buddha was really so great with ood-willed as her father to meet a violent death

Karets kindness, and there will be retribution for your comeuppance, but these are all nonsense to her!

Chu Li said, ”get me a copy of Scripture of titanium”

” alright” Xue Ling was puzzled, but she did not pry further

In today's world, the art ofThose who practice Buddhis up and overtaking the Taoists The Deer Cliff's martial art skills were mysterious and difficult to comprehend, while The Te bounds!

Because of that, there were et a copy of the Scripture of titanium She just had to round the island once and would surely find a copy

She did just that and returned to the gazebo, and handed the scripture in both hands to Chu Li

Accepting it, Chu Li glanced at it He nodded This is very coave it back to Xue Ling, ”read it to me”

Xue Ling looked at him, took the scripture and started to read from it

”Just like what I have heard…”

Chu Li listed to her quietly She read fluently and was steady in her speed, her voice clear and melodious She was enjoyable to hear

She finished reading Chu Li smiled, ”not bad!”

Xue Ling gave hi to say

”Xue Ling, when I cultivate later, please stand on the side and read out the scripture for me”

”Wouldn't that disturb you?”

”Don't worry, just read it!”

Xue Ling nodded her head lightly in acknowledgment

Chu Li smiled and continued, ”You better prepare some spirit herbs and make tea to soothe your throat for later”

”Will do,” Xue Ling got up and left to prepare

She returned half an hour later with a s of spirit herbs, and proceeded to boil water to make tea ”Shall we start, Master?”

”Yes!” said Chu Li

He stood up, walked out of the gazebo, and started to cultivate the Sentient Menace With Xue Ling reading the scripture on the side, he practiced the 72 forain Her voice was calm, peaceful and she read at a steady pace

Xue Ling has never read a Buddhist scripture before, but she had heard her mother chanted it and she sounded just like her mother now

She was not in a hurry It was not about how , he will take at least up to half a day for it It would be better if she reads it slowly and not rush it

She tried tofor her eyes to always have to look hard at it, to ease her fatigue, it may be better to memorize it

With the chanting of the scripture accoe It was as if he's in a rite and out-of-body, his heart cal all conceptions of forhtened mind

He was free froo of this mortal world and six senses; only his sub-conscious re the Sentient Menace

When he finally awoke fro at hi the scripture

”What is it?” Chu Li noted her weird expression

She pointed at the sky, ”Master, look at the sky”

Chu Li looked up and realized that dusk was setting in, and lanterns around were being lit A day passed by with his absentmindedness

Xue Ling explained, ”Master, you were cultivating so intensely, I dare not interrupt you!”

Chu Ling nodded, ”You did right!”
