My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 818

Mythism artifacts were considered extremely sacred objects for followers of Mythism, so much so that they even aroused desire in priests. However, the white-robed priest quickly regained his composure and returned the package to Felicity.

He then turned around and said, "Please follow me down the mountain.”

Holding the package in her arms, Felicity gritted her teeth and said, "Do I look like someone who can walk?"

The white-robed priest stopped in his tracks. He hesitated for a moment before turning back to Felicity with an uncertain look.

Looking up at him, Felicity said, "Why are you standing there? Help me up!"

"The Light guides me!"

The white-robed priest joined his hands in prayer. He seemed hesitant as he did not know how to support a woman in a dress who had her arms and legs exposed.

Felicity's lips twitched. "Are you avoiding touching me because I'm a woman?"

Closing his eyes, the white-robed priest began reciting scriptures, “The Light guides and reveals that five aggregates are empty, thus transcending all suffering. O Teacher, form is no different from emptiness, emptiness is no different from form. Form is emptiness, emptiness is form.

"Sensation, perception, volition, and consciousness are also like this. O Teacher, all phenomena are empty—they have no characteristics, are not produced or destroyed, not defiled or pure, not increased or decreased.

"Form is emptiness, emptiness is form. Sensation, perception, volition, and consciousness are all the same. Shariputra, all dharmas are marked by emptiness; they do not arise or cease, are not defiled or pure, do not increase or decrease."

"Stop, stop, stop!

"Go find me a sturdy stick. People might think you're performing some ritual to save me if they don't know any better," Felicity said as she felt goosebumps growing all over her skin.

The white-robed priest turned around and walked into the night. He was able to quickly procure a sturdy wooden stick.

Using the stick, Felicity followed the white-robed priest. After about half an hour, they arrived at a bustling village.

The village was filled with small buildings. The houses were also clustered together. Every household had its lights on, making the entire village look very bright.

Holding the package in one hand, Felicity walked down the village road with the help of the stick.

Some ladies and gents were sitting at their doorsteps eating dinner. They cast friendly glances at them. ”Jaxon, have you eaten? Come to my house for dinner!"

"I've already eaten, thank you."

"Jaxon, do you have time tomorrow? Can you accompany me to the town to buy some things?"
