LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

As these words fell, two people walked out from backstage.

The one walking in front was an old lady. She was dressed very festively. When Lyvia saw her, she blurted out, “Mama Kerry!” This old lady was none other than Diego Woods’ mother, Tony Woods. However, although she was dressed festively, her face was sallow and waxen, like a walking wax figure! It gave people a somewhat eerie feeling. Lyvia only realized this after calling out to her once. Lyvia was stunned for a moment! How could Mama Kerry become like this? What exactly happened to her? It was said she didn’t have a serious illness, but was possessed by an evil spirit! Could there really be such evil things in this world?

At this time, Jun Chester also looked at Tony Woods. After just one glance, he knew why Tony Woods had become like this! Her life force was barely flickering! Like a half-dead walking corpse! She had been fed fetal poison by evildoers to turn her into a walking semi-corpse! However… Judging by her condition, she could still be saved!

Then, Jun Chester looked at the man beside Tony Woods. To be exact, he was a big monk dressed in yellow robes. The man who had just stopped Jun Chester from questioning Diego Woods was this monk. He looked to be around thirty years old. His complexion was fair and clear. His big ears hung down to his shoulders. He had a tall stature. He gave off a solemn Buddhist aura. It was worth noting… This man had no scar on his head. In other words, although he wore monk robes, he was not actually an ordained monk!

Just as Jun Chester was sizing this man up, below the stage, most of the guests knelt down on the ground. It seemed they were all paying respects to the monk in this way! As if worshipping the Buddha! In a short time, the scene became extremely quiet!

The monk saw this scene as if he was used to it. He only nodded slightly at the crowd with a faint smile. And said, “Amitabha!” Only then did the crowd get up. Without exception, they all looked at the monk. Like a group of devout believers!

In the eyes of the many guests present, this monk was none other than the abbot of the Birken Temple in the capital, Ajahn Phah.

The many celebrity guests from the entertainment industry were ostensibly here to celebrate Tony Woods’ birthday to give Diego Woods face. But in fact, including the many powerful figures present, the real reason everyone came here was simply to get a glimpse of the famous Ajahn Phah, the grand dharma master known both domestically and abroad! After all, living in the mortal world, who didn’t have troubles?

Seeing Grand Dharma Master Ajahn Phah could bring enlightenment!

Although Ajahn Phah had no scar on his head, in the eyes of his millions of followers, Ajahn Phah was an undisputed incarnation of Buddha. Although not yet thirty years old, he had wandered the world’s great temples and monasteries alone since the age of three!

Twenty years ago, not even ten years old yet, Ajahn Phah was crowned the National Teacher of Cradleland by the King of Cradleland while traveling there!

Yet despite this, Ajahn Phah still abandoned all his fame and benefits! He returned to Lordran, back to the then dilapidated Birken Temple, and concentrated on cultivating in seclusion!

Now, twenty years later, Birken Temple prospered with incense offerings, every wish fulfilled! All because of Ajahn Phah alone!

Some said Ajahn Phah was fishing for fame. But his millions of followers did not think so! Take Birken Temple for example. In recent years, because of Ajahn Phah, tens of thousands of devout men and women flocked to Birken Temple to compete for the first incense every year!

The price of one first incense at Birken Temple… Had long been hyped up to tens of millions! But despite this… There were still people willing to spend a fortune. However, when Ajahn Phah learned of this, he sat in front of the Great Majesty Hall at Birken Temple. For ten days and ten nights, he did not eat a grain of rice or drink a drop of water. This was to dissolve the competitive greed of the incense-offering devotees.

On that day, heavy snow fell, blanketing his monk robes in white! On that day, many incense offerers knelt in front of Ajahn Phah, accompanying Ajahn Phah the monk in fasting from food and water. Many hungry and faint devotees collapsed from weakness. On that day, Ajahn Phah got up with a golden light around his body. Wherever he walked, the devotees became clear-headed and invigorated! As if a miracle!

For such an eminent monk to seek fame and profit? The devotees did not believe so! The many Buddhist followers did not believe so!

At this moment, Ajahn Phah walked calmly towards Jun Chester. When he stood in front of Jun Chester, it was as if the Buddha had descended to earth. Ajahn Phah smiled. “Layman, you’ve come here to kill?”

Jun Chester ignored Ajahn Phah and continued looking at Diego Woods, whose shoulder he was grabbing. And asked again, “Where are those forty-nine infants?”

Diego Woods still did not answer. Instead, he looked at Ajahn Phah.

Ajahn Phah smiled and said, “Those forty-nine infants were demonic reincarnations. Losing them is actually a good thing for the people.”

Jun Chester furrowed his brows. He looked at Ajahn Phah again and suddenly asked him, “Do you know Ajahn Birken?”

Ajahn Phah smiled and said, “He was my mentor.”

Jun Chester narrowed his eyes and sneered coldly, “Then should I call you Ajahn Phah? Or Kayero?”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Ajahn Phah’s expression changed slightly.

Jun Chester released Diego Woods. He looked coldly at Ajahn Phah and slowly said, “What a coincidence. I, Jun Chester, traveled many countries in my youth. One year, I passed through Cradleland and heard a strange tale. The old undeading King of Cradleland crowned an evil child the National Teacher that year, granting him the name Kayero. This evil child was the deputy head of the Cradleland Chapel!”

“Also that year, after I returned, I went to the capital with my mother. My mother went to pay respects to a monk named Ajahn Birken, who was eaten by someone!”
