Listening to Master Shi's words, Ye Ran couldn't help but pace back and forth excitedly.

Seeing Ye Ran's excited expression...

Shi Huaqing was somewhat confused...

Chen Wuxin, standing to the side, observed Ye Ran's expression.

He looked at Shi Huaqing with some confusion:

"Master, this Teacher Ye you mentioned..."

"Quiet." Shi Huaqing gave Chen Wuxin a disgruntled look.

Chen Wuxin didn't argue back, he just stood there.

Still smiling as he looked at everything before him,

It's impossible to tell what the little monk is thinking...

A moment later,

Ye Ran stood before Shi Huaqing once again.

He said with a serious expression:

“Master Shi, I can’t guarantee anything else, but I can guarantee that your disciple will definitely be able to find his own path with me.”

Upon hearing Ye Ran's words, Shi Huaqing

His already kind and gentle eyes became much brighter.

He put his hands together in prayer position:

"Then this old monk will thank you in advance, young friend!"

Ye Ran hurriedly returned the greeting, then earnestly said to Shi Huaqing:

"However, I also have a request that I cannot make."

Shi Huaqing looked at Ye Ran and said:

"Young friend Ye, please speak freely. As long as it is within my power, I will not refuse in the slightest."

Ye Ran looked at Shi Huaqing and said earnestly:

"Master Shi, I wish to erect a life-size golden statue of Lan Moyan in the Great Vajra Temple and place it inside the main hall!"

Upon hearing this,

Shi Huaqing was stunned for a moment.

Ye Ran's excited expression earlier made me think that he had thought of some extremely beneficial advantage for himself.

But I never expected that...

What Ye Ran said wasn't any of that, and it didn't even have much to do with himself...

Seeing Shi Huaqing's stunned expression, Ye Ran anxiously added:

"Don't worry, Master, I'll pay for this life-size golden statue!"

As the young master of the Ye family

Although her father forbade her from using people from the Ye family, he never forbade her from using their money...

Shi Huaqing listened to Ye Ran's words,

He took another deep look at Ye Ran.

Having spent decades in the martial arts world, he possesses a keen eye for talent.

It's clear that Ye Ran's eagerness and seriousness are not an act...

Ye Ran could have easily asked for an exorbitant amount.

Not only did he not receive any benefits, but now he even has to pay out of his own pocket to build a statue of Lan Moyan...

Ye Ran's image was elevated infinitely in Shi Huaqing's mind...

Suddenly, Shi Huaqing's tone became serious:

"I am ashamed... but I agree to this."

Upon hearing Shi Huaqing's words, Ye Ran

A slight smile played on his lips, revealing his genuine joy. He didn't want to wait a moment longer and spoke directly to Shi Huaqing:

"Master Shi, the bank account number for the Great Vajra Temple is..."

Seeing Ye Ran's behavior, Shi Huaqing blushed.

In recent years,

Those young men running Buddhist temples have almost completely distorted the Buddhist culture of predestined relationships...

We need to go back and give those money-grubbing monks a good talking-to!

Ye Ran was interrupted by Shi Huaqing before she could finish speaking:

"Young friend Ye, the golden statue commemorating Lan Moyan's merits will be built by our Great Vajra Temple. Please don't bring up money again and embarrass this old monk..."

"But....."

"Young friend, let's not discuss this matter any further. I will stay here and take my leave."

"Master Shi, please don't be in such a hurry..."

Ye Ran hadn't finished speaking when

Shi Huaqing has disappeared.

Ye Ran watched Shi Huaqing leave, but didn't dwell on it.

It's good that the matter is settled.

If Lan Moyan's merit statue were placed inside the Great Vajra Temple for worshippers to pay their respects...

This will greatly help in reviving Lan Moyan!!

As for this new student....

Ye Ran turned to look at Chen Wuxin.

Before Ye Ran could speak,

Chen Wuxin obediently clasped her hands together in front of Ye Ran:

"Student Chen Wuxin greets teacher!!"

Subsequently,

Chen Wuxin very naturally took out a scripture from his pocket.

Presented with both hands:

"I heard that Teacher Ye comes from the Ye family in Jinling. This is the eight copies of the Heart Sutra of the Heavenly Dragon that I copied overnight, and I also recited it forty-nine times in front of the Buddha."

"This scripture possesses the blessing of Buddhist vows and has extraordinary effects on the cultivation of dragons."

"The gift may not be expensive, but it represents the student's goodwill. Please accept it, teacher!"

As he spoke, Chen Wuxin even leaned forward and bowed slightly.

The scripture landed very naturally less than five centimeters in front of Ye Ran's lower ribs.

Ye Ran could easily grab it with just a slight raise of his hand...

Words and actions

Completed in one go...

Distance and sense of proportion

Perfect and appropriate...

Ye Ran accepted the exquisitely crafted scripture.

As soon as he received it, he felt a faint Buddhist light emanating from the scripture.

The Buddha's light followed the scriptures, enveloping his entire body.

Ye Ran only felt the power of the Dragon Emperor within him.

It felt as comfortable as being treated to a sauna and massage all in one go...

After Ye Ran accepted the scriptures, Chen Wuxin

The palm is turned over very naturally.

He stood there with utmost politeness.

He still had a smile on his face and squinted his eyes.

You can't tell any emotion from him.

Ye Ran silently flipped through the scripture.
