Chapter 1579: Chapter 1579: Goddess Nun of the South Sea

At the office of Second Middle School’s administration, Long Fei sat inside while the head of administration took out all of Su Yiyi’s files and handed them to Long Fei.

He offered Long Fei a cigarette, took a puff himself, and said with some pain, “Mr. Long, to be honest, I had high hopes for Yiyi. She’s not only a good student but also helpful; she’s been commended by our school multiple times! But some time ago, her family suddenly withdrew her, saying she had a serious illness and needed treatment. We even visited her home to counsel her father, but he wouldn’t listen. We couldn’t exactly force the girl to come! So, Mr. Long, if you see Yiyi, and if her family is having difficulties, tell her to speak up, and our school will help. She’s still young, and there’s a promising future in education!”

Long Fei nodded, shook hands with the head of administration, and then drove quickly to Su Yiyi’s home.

According to the head of administration, Long Fei’s mind was filled with doubts.

Su Yiyi is now already initiated into the path and her cultivation has even surpassed the Enlightenment Realm; illness is impossible.

The tuition at Second Middle School isn’t expensive, just over two thousand a year.

When Long Fei left, he gave Su Yiyi quite a sum, certainly enough to cover this tuition.

With full of doubts, he went to Su Yiyi’s home, which was in the process of redevelopment, with excavators roaring everywhere.

Su Yiyi’s home hadn’t been scheduled for demolition yet, but a big character for ‘demolition’ was written on the wall.

As Long Fei arrived, he saw the taxi at the door, the very one he bought for Su Laicai.

He stopped at the door and went in, where a group of men were drinking inside.

When they saw Long Fei, they wiped their mouths and stood up.

One of them exclaimed in surprise, “Isn’t this the executive of Lin’s Group?”

“Ah, our benefactor is here!”

“Executive, are you here to inspect the site?”

A group of people enthusiastically welcomed Long Fei, pulling him to join in the drinking.

Long Fei smiled and declined, calling out to Su Laicai, who wore a frightened expression and was ready to slip away, “Su Laicai, come out with me, I have something to ask you.”

Su Laicai had no choice, and followed Long Fei out, trembling.

He nervously explained, “I wasn’t slacking off today; everyone is about to part ways, so the neighbors gathered to have a couple of drinks.”

Long Fei shouted at him, “Nonsense, I didn’t ask you about that. Where’s Yiyi? Why did you make her quit school?”

“You’re talking about Yiyi?”

Su Laicai scratched his head and sighed in relief, furtively looking around, and whispered to Long Fei, “It wasn’t me who made Yiyi quit school, it was an old nun who advised her to. She’s an immortal practicing at sea, and she took Yiyi to cultivate with her.”

“An immortal?” Fresh chapters posted on 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹•𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖•𝗇𝗲𝘁

Long Fei’s heart skipped a beat, waiting for Su Laicai to get scolded, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Su Laicai slapped his thigh, “I didn’t dare! The immortal can fly, and I saw she had a monastic face, like a Bodhisattva, not like a bad person. She wanted to accept Yiyi as a disciple; I couldn’t refuse!”

Long Fei was speechless at this guy, angrily asking him, “Did the old nun tell you? Where is she practicing?”

Su Laicai thought for a moment and said, “She mentioned something about the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest, said it was where the Bodhisattva used to cultivate. Yiyi’s classmate Wang Xiaoyun also went with her. Yes, it was this classmate who brought the old nun here. She met the nun during a trip to Sanya and brought her back, forcibly taking my daughter away. Honestly, my heart aches too!”

“You’re just full of crap!”

Long Fei cursed and asked him, “Did the old nun slip you some money?”

Su Laicai hastily waved his hand, “No, absolutely not. She just gave me a bottle of potion, said drinking it could cure all ailments. I mix a bit with wine every day, and it really works quite well!”

Long Fei didn’t bother with him anymore, drove back, and on the way immediately used the transmission jade to let disciples practicing on Fangzhang Island investigate the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest.

This Buddhist Sect is really making things difficult for me; first they forced Fengling on me, now they’ve taken away Su Yiyi.

Next time we meet, if Su Yiyi has shaved her head, Long Fei really can’t imagine the scene.

When he got back, the sky had already darkened.

Lin Yingying had returned from the company, seemingly having released some burden, and was in a great mood preparing a whole table of dishes in the kitchen.

Long Fei leaned over for a look; there was a sense of formality to it.

A nice balance of meat and vegetables, hot and cold dishes.

Lin Shanshan, Fengling, and Little Kirin were sitting on the sofa watching TV. When they saw Long Fei looking unhappy, they stood up and asked, “Couldn’t find Yiyi?”

Long Fei went over, sat down, and took a sip of tea, “How do you know I went to find Yiyi?”

Lin Shanshan giggled, “You don’t have many friends in this city, who else could you be concerned about besides that girl Yiyi?”

Long Fei rubbed his head, feeling a bit troubled, “Have you ever heard of a sect called the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest?”

“Purple Bamboo Forest?”

Lin Shanshan shook her head, “Never heard of it, but I’ve heard of the Goddess Nun of the South Sea. Look, that Little Dragon Maid is her disciple.”

They were watching the Hong Kong version of “The Condor Heroes,” and after Little Dragon Maid left, Huang Rong had conjured up the story of the Goddess Nun of the South Sea to comfort Yang Guo.

Long Fei stared at the TV, thinking that although the Goddess Nun of the South Sea was fictional, it was based on local folklore.

Master Jin wrote this character based on the legend; maybe such a person really exists.

At this moment, Fengling interjected, “I heard from my master before, there is indeed a Buddhist tradition in the South Sea, related to Guanyin Bodhisattva. This tradition has always been very mysterious; my master said that a divine nun attained enlightenment and ascended in the Gathering Clouds era a thousand years ago.”

Long Fei was surprised and felt much clearer.

As long as Su Yiyi wasn’t being misled by some evil sect, that’s all that matters. Maybe the girl really has a destiny with the Buddhist Sect, who knows.

Lin Yingying put the soup on to simmer, called everyone over for dinner.

Lin Shanshan joyfully pulled Little Kirin and Fengling over to sit, Fengling quickly adapted and got along well with them.

She glanced at the meat dishes on the table and immediately clasped her hands in prayer, chanting Amitabha.

Lin Yingying came over smiling, pointed out the vegetarian dishes on the table, saying they were specially prepared for her.

Fengling was full of gratitude, her eyes reddened with emotion, “Sister Lin, you all treat me so well.”

When she was in the temple, she was surrounded by men, a very different feeling than the one she got from Lin Yingying and her sister.

“No need to be so formal!”

Lin Yingying smiled and sat across from Long Fei.

The three women sat on one side, with Long Fei and Little Kirin on the other.

Lin Yingying picked up a piece of meat and placed it in Long Fei’s bowl, smiling, “Hurry up and eat, what are you daydreaming about? The food was delivered from the hotel; I just heated it.”

Long Fei looked at her, feeling strange inside, like Pan Jinlian feeding Wu Dalang poison.

Still fierce in the morning, but so gentle in the evening.

Long Fei took a bite of the meat, thinking something was definitely off here.
