Seeing this, Feng Jiu didn’t say anything more and just said, “Alright then! Just put this thing away and turn around and give it to that monk.”
The two of them ate in the room, after chatting for a while, Xuanyuan Mo Ze told her all about the requests of those strong people who cto help that were rallied under her name, after making things clear, they then asked Leng Hua to call Du Fan and the others to the courtyard to hand sthings over.
Since Qi Kang and the others hadn’t returned yet, they planned to stay here first, waiting for them to finish their business before coming over to join them.

Hearing this, Feng Jiu was slightly surprised: “There is actually this?” She pondered slightly and said, “Our child has us to protect him, logically speaking it shouldn’t even be in any danger, what does this monk mean by saying such words?”
Her voice paused slightly and she said, “Since this is the case, I will probe him tomorrow to find out what exactly is going on.”
“Hm.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze responded, his heart still remembering this matter.
The next morning, after they had their meal in the courtyard, Feng Jiu gave an instruction to Leng Hua to go and invite the monk over.
The monk got up early in the morning to recite the sutra, he expected that Feng Jiu would let him go over today, so he waited in the courtyard early in the morning, this twhen he heard Leng Hua’s words, he followed him to the main courtyard together.
“Benefactor.” The monk who entered the courtyard saluted the two of them with folded hands.
“Master, please take a seat.” Feng Jiu smiled lightly and stood up to invite him to sit down.
The monk nodded slightly and walked forward to take a seat at the table.
“GrandMaster, this is the relics from your sect, as well as the Heart Sutra.” Feng Jiu took out the two items and placed them on the table, saying, “However, there is one thing I don’t understand, and I still hope that the Master will solve it.” Her hand pressed those two things and did not push them directly in front of him.

“Does the Master know that there is something wrong with this Heart Sutra?” Feng Jiu asked straight to the point.
Upon hearing this, the monk was stunned, “Why did the benefactor say that?”
“Because I wanted to transfer this heart sutra from the hands of that Reclusive Sect’s Sect Master, so I copied the heart sutra and mixed the contents, only, unexpectedly after reading that heart sutra, but felt a forced cultivation and this heart sutra’s hegemony, it is not at all like a Buddhist heart sutra.”
Feng Jiu said, her gaze fell on his face and asked, “Does Master know the reason for this?”
The monk’s complexion moved slightly, murmured softly, “Amitabha, the poor monk does not know, this heart sutra is Venerable’s holy relic, no one can cultivate it unless the holy Venerable promises it, the poor monk has not cultivated it, much less looked through it, so he does not know the reason for this.”
Seeing that he did not look like he was telling a lie, Feng Jiu then said, “Since this is the case, after Master takes it back, it would be best to report the matter to your Venerable, lest something happens in the future.” As she spoke, she pushed the two boxes pressed under her palms forward and said, “Master, please have a look!”
The monk took it, opened it and looked at it, then closed it and said, “It’s these two things that are good.”
With that, he stood up and made a solemn salute towards Feng Jiu, “Many thanks benefactor.”
