Chapter 289: Master Jinguang!? The Bodhi Pill!
A heaviness pressed on Li Yanchu’s heart.
Still, this was within the grounds of Jinguang Temple. Surely nothing too great could go wrong here. After all, Jinguang Temple likely had laid its plans, intending to lure and slay the heretics coveting the relics. It ought to possess sufficient strength to do so.
He released Lady Yun from the Dragon-Tiger Scepter. With a flash of golden light, a young woman with her hair in a coiled bun and a lovely, radiant face appeared in the room. Her plain indigo skirt was simple and unadorned, yet it traced the elegant curves of her form.
The moment Lady Yun emerged, her limpid eyes roamed curiously about the meditation room.
“So this is Jinguang Temple? This Buddhist aura truly feels comforting,” Lady Yun sighed in wonder.
Li Yanchu chuckled. “Shall I leave you here, then?”
Lady Yun froze, then quickly said, “No, I must remain by your side, Daoist Master.”
Suddenly, Li Yanchu remembered something. “By the way, the high monk who enlightened you back then, what was his name?”
“Master Benyin[1].”
The name sounded strangely familiar to Li Yanchu. He tried hard to recall the introductions he’d read about Jinguang Temple, yet no matter how he searched his memory, nothing came to him.
All of a sudden, his eyes widened.
“Master Jinguang!” For the first time, he scrutinized Lady Yun carefully, making her cheeks flush with a rosy hue.
