The place where the Soothing Spirit Pillar is located is watched over by guards.
And upon first glance, their aura is calm and steady, not just ordinary characters.
Monk Quan Heng was stopped, but showed no urgency. He first looked back at Ding Hui behind him, then clasped his hands towards the guards and said.
"Amitabha, the ritual is imminent. I wish to inspect the Soothing Spirit Pillar a few more times to ensure the smooth conduct of the ceremony. I ask for leniency from you all."
The guards frowned, looked back at the others, a bit hesitant for a moment.
Monk Quan Heng continued, "If Master An finds it inconvenient, I shall ask the Family Head for permission and return later."
Saying this, Monk Quan Heng was ready to leave with Ding Hui.
But Ding Hui only got to look for a few seconds.
Though they previously agreed it was just a glance, if truly just a glance, how could Ding Hui be satisfied!
Immediately, she fixed her feet like nails on the ground, refusing to leave.
