Sheng Wanwan turned her head and saw an old monk wearing a kasaya slowly walking towards her.
The old monk had a kind and benevolent appearance, with a pair of slender eyes that held a warm smile, and he exuded a strong Buddhist aura.
"Who are you? Do you recognize me?"
Sheng Wanwan looked at the old monk and asked.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Si Nantian hurriedly said, "Master Huiyuan, thank you for coming in person to support the Goddess!"
"Wanwan, this is Master Huiyuan, a highly accomplished monk! He rarely concern himself with worldly affairs, but he came down the mountain specifically for you today. Wanwan, you have far more influence than even your uncle the Emperor!"
Si Nantian glanced at Master Huiyuan with a resentful look. The last time the Holy Maiden of the Great Liang Kingdom visited, he sent someone to invite her, but Master Huiyuan only said that nothing would happen to the Great Yan Kingdom and then ignored his people.
But now, because of this little girl, he specially ran away from the temple.
That really made him lose face!
However, he had to admit defeat! After all, he wasn't as capable as Sheng Wanwan, who was just a baby.
Upon hearing Si Nantian's words, Sheng Wanwan clasped her hands together and bowed to Master Huiyuan.
“Wanwan has met Master Huiyuan,” she said in her childish voice. “I am very grateful that Master made a special trip for me!”
Master Huiyuan looked at Sheng Wanwan's adorable appearance and a kind smile appeared on his face.
"Young benefactor, you are too kind. My visit is in accordance with the will of Heaven. I see that you are a blessed person and will surely have great fortune in the future!"
Sheng Wanwan smiled broadly upon hearing Master Huiyuan's praise.
"Thank you for the compliment, Master!"
Master Huiyuan looked at her with eyes full of admiration and affection.
"Young benefactor, I have come here today to give you something else."
As he spoke, he took out a string of Buddhist prayer beads from his sleeve and handed it to Sheng Wanwan.
"This string of prayer beads has been with me for many years and has acquired a Buddhist aura. Today I bestow it upon you, young benefactor. These prayer beads can help you withstand a heavenly tribulation and overcome a difficult time."
"Heavenly Tribulation? Master Huiyuan, am I facing a Heavenly Tribulation?"
Sheng Wanwan is skilled in divination and face reading, but she cannot see her own destiny.
Master Huiyuan was a highly accomplished monk, so his words are credible.
Heavenly tribulation? Oh my god! Does this mean she's going to be struck by lightning again?
In her previous life, she did good deeds and accumulated merit, and her body shone with golden light, yet she still couldn't escape the fate of being struck by lightning and killed.
Will this happen again in this lifetime?
What the hell? Is Heaven blind? Why are you targeting this kind-hearted person instead of punishing so many bad people?
One blow wasn't enough for her, she wants to do it a second time?
"Amitabha, young benefactor, heavenly secrets cannot be revealed. This old monk has one more thing to remind you, young benefactor: you are destined for an extraordinary life."
May the young benefactor remain true to his heart, keep the well-being of all people in mind, and cultivate good karma widely, so that he may turn misfortune into good fortune and adversity into auspiciousness.
The monk Huiyuan smiled as he looked at Sheng Wanwan, his eyes gleaming with a profound light, as if he could see the truth of all things in the world.
Sheng Wanwan sighed inwardly, "An enlightened monk is indeed an enlightened monk!"
His words seemed profound and mysterious, but in reality, they were a warning to her that with her great abilities, she mustn't let them go astray. If she were to go astray with her talents, she would be struck by lightning.
It's a good thing she was worried about the heavenly tribulation; now it seems the heavenly tribulation was just something the old monk made up to scare her!
She's grown up badly? How could that be?
"Thank you for your guidance, Master. Don't worry! Wanwan is a kind-hearted person by nature and will definitely not turn out badly!"
Sheng Wanwan pouted, very unhappy that the old monk in front of her was trying to fool her.
It's wrong to scare children, you know?
Master Huiyuan couldn't help but chuckle softly at Sheng Wanwan's appearance.
He naturally noticed the little girl's dissatisfaction, but he also knew that this little girl was extraordinary, possessing innate intelligence and wisdom.
So he said gently, “Young benefactor, I did not mean to frighten you. Your destiny is obscured by the laws of Heaven, and I cannot see it clearly, but you will indeed face a great calamity. This calamity is not something that humans can cause; it must be a heavenly tribulation.”
After listening to Master Huiyuan's words, Sheng Wanwan's dissatisfaction gradually dissipated.
She knew that the high monk was concerned about her and was reminding her.
So she respectfully bowed to Master Huiyuan and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Master. I will pay attention."
She didn't ask much about the so-called heavenly tribulation, since even the monk Huiyuan couldn't see her fate clearly, and even if she asked him, he wouldn't be able to say for sure!
Why create trouble for yourself?
Master Huiyuan nodded, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
"Wanwan! I really like you! I wonder if I can come visit you often?"
Master Huiyuan asked with a smile, his eyes full of expectation.
The Sheng family's roots weren't very good. He always felt that Sheng Wanwan's future calamity would be because she had gone astray and committed heinous crimes, which would be her punishment from Heaven.
Otherwise, why would Heaven, having nothing better to do, send down a heavenly tribulation on a mere child?
He didn't want this adorable baby to grow up to be anything but cute.
Therefore, he felt that for the sake of all living beings, he had an obligation to frequently go down the mountain to keep an eye on the little one and prevent her from going astray!
If she turns evil, it will be a great calamity for the world!
Upon hearing this, Sheng Wanwan blinked her big eyes and nodded with a smile:
"Of course! Wanwan also really likes you, Master! If you come to see me, Wanwan will be very happy."
"Amitabha, well said, well said." Master Huiyuan smiled kindly, feeling even more affection for the little girl.
