Chapter 1397 - 1400: Ci Yun’s Troubled Thoughts

Lin Feng wasn’t intentionally trying to hide the truth from Tang Zhendong, he just didn’t want Tang Zhendong to worry too much... After all, even if Tang Zhendong knew about Tang Rou’s situation, he wouldn’t be able to help, so why burden the old man?

"Lin Feng, tell me what exactly is going on, what happened to Tang Rou in the past few days?" Tang Zhendong, noticing that Tang Rou’s condition wasn’t severe, stared angrily at Lin Feng and questioned in a deep voice, "Why did you hide Tang Rou from me and not let her see me? Do you know how worried I am about her?!"

"Uncle Tang, this matter... is hard to explain in a few words! Let’s talk somewhere else!" Lin Feng glanced at Tang Zhendong, his expression showing a hint of helplessness as he spoke.

"Hmph!" Tang Zhendong snorted discontentedly, glanced around at the people present, and nodded. He knew something inconvenient to disclose had happened to Tang Rou, and to protect her privacy, Tang Zhendong temporarily suppressed his anger, agreeing to speak with Lin Feng elsewhere.

Lin Feng took Tang Zhendong and Tang Rou to a private room on the top floor of Longfeng Martial Hall, ordered his subordinates to prepare tea and snacks, and then calmly explained the situation that had occurred to Tang Rou during this time... At this point, Lin Feng decided to tell Tang Zhendong everything!

So, Lin Feng detailed to Tang Zhendong how Tang Rou had gone to America to visit her mother, Ye Shufen, but unfortunately was forcibly taught the Scripture by Master Ciyun introduced by Ye Shufen, leading to her almost losing her sanity. He then went to Harbor City and forcefully brought Tang Rou back to start the recovery treatment process...

Tang Zhendong was nearly jumping with anger when he first heard that Tang Rou had secretly gone to America by herself. He knew Tang Rou’s mother, Ye Shufen, was in America, but he didn’t expect Ye Shufen to let a young girl like Tang Rou travel alone there; it was too dangerous! Then, upon hearing that Lin Feng had sent Xiang Wang and Zhou Yang to escort Tang Rou, his expression finally softened a bit, and his attitude towards Lin Feng also eased slightly!

However, when Tang Zhendong learned that Ye Shufen had a nun forcefully try to convert Tang Rou to Buddhism... and even Zhou Yang was injured protecting Tang Rou, while Tang Rou herself seemed to have become somewhat incoherent, he was furious to the point his lungs might explode!

"Absurd! That woman is mad! It’s one thing for her to be obstinately superstitious, but to drag my precious daughter into her foolishness and harm Tang Rou is simply insane!" Tang Zhendong furiously slammed the teacup in his hand onto the ground, yelling angrily.

Lin Feng said nothing; he was actually more enraged than Tang Zhendong, but since she was Tang Rou’s mother, he couldn’t express such emotions.

Tang Rou also stayed silent, merely watching Lin Feng quietly. Although she learned from Lin Feng that Tang Zhendong was her father... in her memory, she only felt Tang Zhendong was a familiar-looking uncle, while Lin Feng was the irremovable person in her heart!

After a long while, when Tang Zhendong had finally vented his anger, he looked somewhat helplessly at Lin Feng and asked bitterly, "Lin Feng, as you say, Tang Rou must follow you to learn bit by bit to gradually recover her previous sanity?"

"I’m afraid so, other than that, there is no special method!" Lin Feng looked into Tang Zhendong’s eyes and said seriously, "I’ve already examined Tang Rou in detail; her brain, even her whole body, has no physical injuries. Tang Rou’s damage isn’t in the normal scope, I’m afraid only I can treat her!"

"Are you sure?!" Tang Zhendong looked at Lin Feng in disbelief; initially, he thought of having several renowned brain experts examine Tang Rou, but Lin Feng’s words clearly rejected that idea.

"Uncle Tang... in this matter, I ask you to trust me!" Lin Feng glanced at Tang Rou with a determined look as he spoke to Tang Zhendong, "I know you’re very worried, but I can assure you, there’s no one more capable than me to help Tang Rou, and I wholeheartedly have her best interests at heart!"

"I trust Lin Feng..." Tang Rou spoke in a timely manner at that moment.

"Tang Rou..." Tang Zhendong helplessly glanced at his somewhat unfamiliar daughter, then at Lin Feng, and finally nodded reluctantly, "Then Lin Feng, you better take good care of Tang Rou; don’t let her suffer any grievances, or I won’t forgive you!"

After sending Tang Zhendong away, Lin Feng could no longer endure his exhausted body; he instructed Zhu Xiuyue to continue taking care of Tang Rou, then went directly back to the private room and fell into a deep sleep...

However, what Lin Feng didn’t know was that after he fell asleep, Tang Rou gracefully refused Zhu Xiuyue’s company, directly returned to the room, sat quietly beside him, her face glowing with a sweet smile, watching him with gentle eyes, sitting there for a long, long time!

...

Harbor City, Ciyun Mountain, Wunian Nunnery!

At this moment, the morning class inside the nunnery had just finished, and a few nuns dressed in pale moon-colored monk robes were gathered chatting in the garden at the back of the nunnery...

Wunian Nunnery wasn’t an ordinary nunnery; those cultivating in Wunian Nunnery were cultivators of high skill, their methods naturally differed from ordinary Buddhist disciples. Comparatively, they were more worldly and didn’t strictly adhere to those intangible rules.

"Ciyun, you’ve been back for three days; why do you always look so sullen? Didn’t you manage to raise the required funds during your trip to America?"

The speaker addressed as Chu Chen, is Master Ciyun’s senior sister and the abbot of Wunian Nunnery.

"Senior sister misunderstood; I raised four million in funds on my trip to America. This isn’t what’s been on my mind!" Master Ciyun gave a light glance at Master Chu Chen and said calmly, "Actually, I shouldn’t have hidden from you, senior sister, but on my trip to America, I encountered a girl with a body of light!"

"Body of light?" Master Chu Chen was dumbstruck, "Ciyun, are you serious?! Isn’t that the legendary physique most suited for cultivating the Buddhist Scripture? Ciyun, didn’t you seize the opportunity to take her as a disciple? Strengthen our Wu Nian Nunnery Orthodox?"

Not only Master Chu Chen but even the observing nuns nearby were stunned; although they had heard of the body of light, it was merely a perfect seed in legend; who had seen it in reality? Master Ciyun indeed has such great fortune?!

Upon hearing Master Chu Chen’s question, Master Ciyun showed a bitter smile, "I certainly attempted to do so, but I failed!"

"Failed?!" Master Chu Chen’s face looked even more shocked upon hearing this.

"Yes, I already imparted the twenty-eight Chapter Lotus Sutra to that female disciple, but someone forcibly snatched her away from me! This is what’s been on my mind during this period!" Master Ciyun said with a bitter smile, looking at Master Chu Chen.
