I joined the Jingshan Temple and became a disciple under the guidance of Master Lingtan.

"Child, I can see your innate wisdom!"

I looked at my kind and compassionate master, but I had no idea what "innate wisdom" meant.

All I saw was the sacred Buddha statue, tender like a pile of minced meat, with tens of thousands of faces on it, some fierce-looking with ox heads, dog legs, human organs, and demonic fangs.

Thud!

A baby's head squeezed out from the belly of the Buddha statue, covered in blood.

"Master, something fell down."

"Good child, you truly possess great innate wisdom!" exclaimed the master, overjoyed.

Soon, the responsibility of being the abbot of the Jingshan Temple fell upon me.

The master proudly supported his back and said, "I saw the past, present, and future of the Buddhist world in Fahai!"

I asked in a daze, "Master, what should I do?"

"Child, it is your duty to eliminate demons, uphold justice, and protect the world."

After the master passed away, I subdued all the demons and monsters in the Jiangnan region.

At the mention of my name, all the demons in the world trembled in fear.

Until I encountered her —

Bai Suzhen.
