She walked over, looking down at me with a smile I'd never seen before: "Let me introduce you, this is your son. Also, I've changed my mind; I don't plan to have him call you 'Dad' anymore."

    She went to Jinchan Temple to steal radishes and accidentally activated a Heavenly Daoist Couple Contract. The bound partner was Xuan Yan, the most unapproachable Buddhist disciple in the cultivation world. He was aloof and ascetic, uninterested in women. She, with her damaged spiritual root, only wanted to give up. The contract stipulated: if they did not unite within three years, they would both become mortals. Shen Jinglan: "Master, rest assured, I guarantee the contract will be dissolved after three years, and I will not hinder your path to Buddhahood." Xuan Yan: "... Okay." Later—she was injured and unconscious, and he repelled the Demon Lord with a single palm strike, holding her and chanting Buddhist scriptures all night.
