Chapter 546: Chapter 545: Mass Release 25

The Buddhist abbot gently patted her arm, and then Xu Niannian felt the discomfort disappear.

She looked at the abbot in surprise, appearing calm on the surface but with a turmoil of shock raging in her heart.

What did this mean?

This couldn’t be medical skills, could it? It surely couldn’t be medical skills, right?

Medical skills shouldn’t be so miraculous, just patting and the problem is gone.

If that were the case, it would have to be a divine doctor in this world.

However, Xu Niannian was a composed person; despite being shocked internally, she maintained an unruffled exterior.

Xu Niannian: "Thank you, abbot."

Buddhist abbot: "You are too kind."

Xu Niannian pursed her lips: "May I know why the abbot has sought me out?"

The abbot smiled warmly, his gaze falling on her face as if he was evaluating her features.

But such scrutiny didn’t make one feel uncomfortable; the abbot’s eyes were comforting, like being enveloped in a warm light.

Xu Niannian thought that he must be observing her physiognomy.

After a while, the abbot withdrew his scrutinizing gaze and smilingly said to her.

"Has the lady come here seeking peace of mind?"

Xu Niannian nodded and honestly replied, "Yes, I had a nightmare last night, so I came here to pray to Buddha, hoping for the Buddha’s blessing for the safe birth of my child."

Xu Niannian came here mainly for peace of mind, but ever since the abbot had invited her over, her mentality had changed.

Xu Niannian was a layperson, born into the secular world; what she wanted was mostly the same as any normal person – for her family to be safe, healthy, and happy.

The abbot smiled: "The lady has the appearance of great wealth and nobility, as well as prosperous offspring. Your child will certainly be born safely; there’s no need for concern."

Upon hearing this, Xu Niannian breathed a sigh of relief and bowed respectfully to the abbot: "Thank you for your blessing."

The abbot shook his head at her: "There’s no need to rush; I haven’t finished speaking yet."

Hearing this, Xu Niannian’s heart, which had just settled, instantly rose again.

"Abbot, please speak freely, there’s no need to worry. I can handle it," she said.

The abbot appreciated Xu Niannian’s calm demeanor.

"Do not worry. You simply have a tribulation in your fate. This tribulation concerns your life’s safety, but your child will help you get through this difficulty."

Tribulation?

This term was something Xu Niannian had only seen on TV, a common word in fantasy dramas.

Yet at this moment, Xu Niannian had no inclination to ridicule; she looked gravely at the abbot: "Is it happening soon?"

The abbot smiled and nodded his head.

"Soon."

Xu Niannian believed that there must be something more the abbot wanted to say since he had someone invite her over.

She asked, "May I know why, among so many people on this mountain, only I was invited?"

His answer was just one word.

"Fate!"

"Fate?" Xu Niannian didn’t understand; the word fate was very mystical, and as a layperson, she truly did not comprehend.

The abbot didn’t mind her confusion and gently explained, "Your coming from another world is fate, finding this place is also fate; when fates meet, life thrives."

Of this Zen-like phrase, Xu Niannian only understood the first part; the last sentence was beyond her grasp.

Her thoughts lingered on the first sentence said by the abbot.

Coming from another world.

This was Xu Niannian’s biggest secret, one that nobody, including Jin Yu, knew.

The only one who knew a little was Xu Zhiqiang.

But Xu Zhiqiang only knew that she was not the original owner of this body.

She never expected the abbot to be so powerful that he could see at a glance she came from another world.

With her greatest secret unveiled, Xu Niannian was terrified inside.

However, upon meeting the abbot’s gentle smile, she gradually calmed down; there was a magical power about the abbot.

It was that anyone who felt restless or uneasy in his presence would gradually calm down under his gaze, which seemed to embrace everything.

At this moment, Xu Niannian’s gaze towards the abbot was no longer just respect.

Devotion.

Now, she felt nothing but devotion towards the abbot.

"The abbot is right. I indeed come from another world. Does the tribulation you mentioned have to do with my taking over this body?" she asked.

"Yes!"

The abbot unhesitatingly replied to her.

"How are they connected?" Xu Niannian asked.

The abbot looked at her with a compassionate gaze: "You were not originally from another world, but due to a confusion in fate, you were misplaced in time and disrupted another’s destiny."

Xu Niannian’s mood grew heavy: "Did the original owner leave because of my arrival?"

"Not at all!" The abbot smiled and maintained his tender gaze.

"This is your fate, your body; you are inherently blessed with great fortune, meant to be born into a family of great favor. Yet, due to the confusion in fate, you were misplaced into another world at the age of three and exchanged identities with someone, until you returned to your rightful place a year ago."

"What does that mean?" Xu Niannian looked at the abbot nervously, even somewhat excitedly: "Abbot, are you saying that this body was indeed mine all along and that I was supposed to be from here?"

The abbot nodded.

Upon hearing this, Xu Niannian didn’t know whether to cry or to laugh.

Heh, so this was where she truly belonged.

Thinking of Yang Cuihua and Xu Dawei, who loved and cherished her, along with her whole family, Xu Niannian covered her face and wept aloud.

She really was their child. It wasn’t just a stroke of fortune that had fallen on her by accident.
