Capítulo 1451: Chapter 1449: You Should Confess to Xuanzang

Upon arriving at the Moon Palace, Venerable Master Mingxin’s original target was either Fairy Zixia or Fairy Chang’e!

However, before he even had a chance to meet either of them, suddenly, melodious singing began to resonate, capturing the attention of Venerable Master Mingxin!

Concealing his presence, Venerable Master Mingxin glanced in the direction the singing came from. It turned out to be a young girl with snow-white skin who was singing!

The long and melodious song flowed from her lips!

“What is this?”

Although the girl appeared beautiful, as someone of Buddhahood status, Venerable Master Mingxin could naturally see through her identity at a glance.

“So, it was the Jade Rabbit in Fairy Chang’e’s arms!”

After using the Buddhists’ discerning eyes for a glance, Venerable Master Mingxin suddenly realized this and murmured to himself!

Seeing the Jade Rabbit in the Moon Palace is not something rare!

After taking a look, Venerable Master Mingxin lost interest and turned to continue seeking Fairy Chang’e or Fairy Zixia!

However, just as Venerable Master Mingxin was about to leave, suddenly, his innate divine ability sensed the Jade Rabbit’s intentions, causing him to pause slightly!

“So, this Jade Rabbit actually harbors affection for Xuanzang?”

Turning back, Venerable Master Mingxin glanced at the Jade Rabbit, murmuring to himself!

He could clearly feel the intense emotions emanating from the Jade Rabbit!

This also indicated that the Jade Rabbit’s admiration for Xuanzang had reached a deeply ingrained level!

With emotions so strong, Venerable Master Mingxin felt that he didn’t need to put in much effort; just a little guidance would be enough to make the Jade Rabbit act according to his wishes, right?

Moreover, being the Jade Rabbit by Fairy Chang’e’s side, this identity isn’t bad either.

Ordinarily, Xuanzang’s group wouldn’t be so ruthless to take her life, would they?

This actually fits the requirement for the chess piece he originally wanted perfectly!

With this thought, Venerable Master Mingxin made a move and directly revealed himself in front of the Jade Rabbit!

“Ah, who are you?” Seeing Venerable Master Mingxin suddenly appear, the Jade Rabbit was startled and jumped up!

“Amitabha, there’s no need to be alarmed, I am Venerable Master Mingxin of the Buddhist Sect! I was passing by the Moon Palace and felt thirsty, might I ask for a drink of water?” Seeing the startled Jade Rabbit, Venerable Master Mingxin spoke soothingly.

Because of Venerable Master Mingxin’s innate ability, with his comforting words, the Jade Rabbit quickly felt relieved.

Looking at Venerable Master Mingxin, he no longer seemed to be a bad person.

“Oh, so it’s Venerable Master Mingxin of the Buddhist Sect! Kindly wait while I get you some water!”

With these words, the Jade Rabbit hopped away, soon returning with a beautiful teacup, offering a drink to Venerable Master Mingxin!

“Thank you!” Receiving the teacup with both hands, Venerable Master Mingxin spoke.

Being of Buddhahood status, he exhibited no arrogance and instead appeared modest and courteous!

After finishing the cup of water, Venerable Master Mingxin looked at the Jade Rabbit and said, “Our Buddhist Sect emphasizes karma greatly, and I see some unresolved distress between your brows! Have you encountered any troubling matters lately?”

“Why not talk about them? If there’s any way I can help, I surely will not stand by idly!”

“No need, Venerable Master Mingxin. This matter, no one else can help me!”

Despite Venerable Master Mingxin’s offer to help, the Jade Rabbit shook her head and said.

“Some things, if not spoken, will never be known by others! Naturally, you won’t know if anyone can help! Since we’re idle now, why not chat for a bit?”

Returning the teacup to the Jade Rabbit, Venerable Master Mingxin spoke as if making casual conversation.

“This…”

Upon hearing Venerable Master Mingxin’s kind tone, the Jade Rabbit hesitated slightly before nodding and saying, “In that case, I’ll casually chat with you!”

“But let me warn you, Venerable Master, please don’t laugh at me!”

“Of course not! It’s my honor that you’re willing to share your feelings with me. I will certainly keep it confidential, how could I laugh at you?”

“Actually, it’s not so much unresolved distress, it’s just that I have someone in my heart, who has become so exceptional, far beyond my reach, so…”

For no apparent reason, the Jade Rabbit felt comfortable with Venerable Master Mingxin, as if meeting an old friend she had known for a long time, and began to speak.

“Oh? Who is this person, so exceptional that you even feel a sense of self-abasement?”

Though already clear in heart, Venerable Master Mingxin still pretended to be ignorant.

“The person, in fact, you know as well, is Master Xuanzang, now your Buddhist Sect’s Sandalwood Merit Buddha!”

Glancing at Venerable Master Mingxin, the Jade Rabbit spoke.

“I’m not admiring him because of his current identity and status as Sandalwood Merit Buddha, but have been fond of him since long, long ago!”

“Back then, Merit Buddha’s declaration with Princess Gaoyang was so moving and touched my heart deeply.”

“And all along, I’ve put in great effort to gather every word and deed of Master Xuanzang, which made his figure firmly etched in my heart!”

“What a pity, now Xuanzang has already been ordained as the Sandalwood Merit Buddha. I heard that, after the Journey to the West, the Sandalwood Merit Buddha might even become the Merit King Buddha? And I am merely a humble Jade Rabbit under Fairy Chang’e, how dare I aim so high for the Merit King Buddha?”

At the end, the Jade Rabbit shook her head, her face full of distress and sadness!

Although her admiration for the Sandalwood Merit Buddha is not due to his current status and cultivation level, now both his status and cultivation have reached heights she can’t even aspire to…

Feeling ashamed and unworthy, the Jade Rabbit indeed felt the gap between herself and Xuanzang growing larger and larger!

Now, it’s not an exaggeration to say it’s like the difference between clouds and mud!

“Amitabha, although I am a person of the Buddhist Sect, I am not entirely unaware of the matters between men and women!” After declaring a Buddhist chant, suddenly, Venerable Master Mingxin spoke.

The Jade Rabbit looked at Venerable Master Mingxin, feeling a bit strange inside!

Was she actually discussing matters of love with a Buddha from the Buddhist Sect? And this Buddha was even showing a demeanor of a master in the affairs of love?

“True emotions are actually not limited by the status, social position, and cultivation you mentioned, Jade Rabbit! Let alone Xuanzang!”

Venerable Master Mingxin said!

“Oh? Why?” The Jade Rabbit curiously looked at Venerable Master Mingxin and asked.

“If love were bound by these things! Then it wouldn’t be love! Moreover…”

At this, Venerable Master Mingxin paused slightly and then continued: “Moreover, do you think the emotions of the Sandalwood Merit Buddha would be influenced by such things?”

“No!” Hearing Venerable Master Mingxin’s words, the Jade Rabbit immediately shook her head!

In the heart of the Jade Rabbit, the Sandalwood Merit Buddha couldn’t possibly be that kind of person!

“There you have it! So, you think you are unworthy of the Sandalwood Merit Buddha due to his lofty status, position, and cultivation, but the issue isn’t with him, it’s with you!”

Seeing the Jade Rabbit shake her head in denial, Venerable Master Mingxin affirmed this conclusion.

“This…”

Venerable Master Mingxin’s concluding words caused the Jade Rabbit’s body to tremble slightly, leaving her speechless!

Indeed, with this analysis, the issue undeniably lies not with the Sandalwood Merit Buddha, but with herself!

“So, Venerable Master, do you think there’s a possibility between me and the Merit Buddha?”

Since she had already expressed her feelings of admiration towards the Sandalwood Merit Buddha, the Jade Rabbit was no longer shy and asked Venerable Master Mingxin.

“Well, matters of the heart are the most mysterious, no one can decide with one word, and precisely because of this, love is so beautiful!”

Sending this response to the Jade Rabbit’s inquiry, Venerable Master Mingxin answered earnestly.

“Oh…” Nodding slightly, the Jade Rabbit also felt that Venerable Master Mingxin’s words made sense, lowered her head disappointedly, and said no more.

“However…”

Just at this moment, Venerable Master Mingxin suddenly shifted his tone! The Jade Rabbit’s eyes suddenly shone with a brilliant light, staring intently at Venerable Master Mingxin!

However? However, what? Was there a turning point in Venerable Master Mingxin’s words?

“However, I do know that in matters of love, one should not be too dilatory! When the time is right, you must act!”

“If you don’t take the initiative, you’ll never know if the other party has feelings for you too!”

“Take the initiative?” This remark from Venerable Master Mingxin set the Jade Rabbit’s mind abuzz!

Take the initiative to pursue the Sandalwood Merit Buddha herself? To be honest, the Jade Rabbit had never thought of this!

“Indeed, if you don’t take action, there will never be a chance between you and him! But if you do, at the very least, there’s a fifty percent chance?”

Venerable Master Mingxin nodded and answered earnestly.

As long as she takes the initiative? There’s a fifty percent chance?

It sounded right, yet why did it also feel somewhat off?

“Well, that’s all I have to say, the rest is up to you to decide, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t delay any longer!”

With these words, Venerable Master Mingxin showed no intention of staying longer, took his leave, and turned to walk away!

“Farewell, Venerable Master!” Watching the silhouette of Venerable Master Mingxin as he left, the Jade Rabbit said farewell!

Only after watching Venerable Master Mingxin fly far, far away, did the Jade Rabbit withdraw her gaze!

Meanwhile, she began to quietly ponder!

Take the initiative to find the Sandalwood Merit Buddha and think of a way to express her feelings to him?

The remark from Venerable Master Mingxin today planted a seed in the Jade Rabbit’s heart, quietly taking root and growing!

Then, she returned to Fairy Chang’e’s side!

Found an excuse, saying she wanted to go out for a while!

Quietly, the Jade Rabbit left the Moon Palace and descended into the mortal world…
