"However, the reason why Jiang Liu didn't want to go to Chang'an is tied to an event from a few years ago at the Jinchan ceremony," Abbot Hai Shi finally broke his silence after a moment.
Shen Luo and Lu Huaming, upon hearing him finally address this matter, listened attentively.
"Our Golden Mountain Temple has held a Jinchan ceremony every year, thanks to the enlightened teachings of Master Jinchanzi. That year, Jiang Liu was eight years old. He excelled in Buddhist studies, and it was his first time attending the Jinchan ceremony. His discourse was insightful and peerless, and all monks within the temple admired him. However, a demon suddenly invaded the temple just as the ceremony was about to end." Abbot Hai Shi recounted.
"A demon? What kind of demon?" Shen Luo's pupils contracted, and he immediately asked.
"I wondered why the aura inside the Golden Mountain Temple was somewhat strange; Turns out you two sneaked in!" At that moment, a cold mocking voice came from outside.
