The Heiress's Return: From Zen to Zenith-Chapter 1031
Chapter 1031: 482 Retribution_1 Chapter 1031: 482 Retribution_1 Granny Aria calculated the time: “Master Kurong should come out of retreat now, right?”
Loretta squatted down, gently kneading Granny Aria’s calves.
“Master Ichsan Groove said it would be before the New Year.
Today is the beginning of spring, and there are still twelve days until the New Year.
Should I personally go to Magead Temple?”
Granny Aria pondered for a moment: “No need, I’ll go myself.
Sincerity fosters spirituality.”
Loretta chuckled, “Are you worried about Miss’s marriage?
Mr.
Violetta Gartia is both talented and well-mannered.
...
Whether it’s family background or talent, he won’t overshadow the Miss.

What is there to worry about?”
Mentioning Violetta Gartia, a rare smile graced Granny Aria’s face: “He’s indeed commendable, much better than the previous men she chose.”
Even without Vanessa Aria in Lostswa, Violetta Gartia would occasionally come to visit Granny Aria, bringing novel snacks and having chats like a dutiful son.
It’s no wonder Granny Aria had a good impression of him.
Seeing a book on Granny Aria’s knee, Loretta laughed and asked, “Isn’t this your Oasis Notes on the Yue Dynasty?
Madam Aria, you must know a lot about Princess Madeleine, certainly more than Professor Vincent Linggo.
I’m very interested in Princess Madeleine; could you tell me more about her story?”
Granny Aria sighed, looking up at the floating clouds in the sky.
Today marks the beginning of spring.
The sunshine is at its best in nearly a month; it isn’t dazzling, but mildly golden and warming when it lands on the body as if spring has indeed come.
The sky has an exceptional blue tone, and the white clouds look like soft cotton candies.
The eye-catching colors make the sky look like an oil painting.
Nice weather tends to lift one’s spirits.
However, in Granny Aria’s unfocused eyes, there is a profound depth.
“Over three hundred years ago, Tantra Buddhism’s direct disciple, Master Keats Mercer, was expelled from Tantra Buddhism.
It caused a huge stir in the Buddhist world.”
Loretta thought for a moment and said, “Rumor has it that Master Keats Mercer left the church in indignation after failing in a debate on the doctrines, right?”
Madam Aria shook her head: “Master Keats Mercer founded a unique sect of Buddhism, profound and surpassing ordinary monks.
How could he leave the sect because of subpar debating skills?”
“Then, why did he leave?”
“Why?” Her finger landed on one of the book’s pages, her old fingers tracing William Wilson’s lines of text until they finally stopped.
Loretta gazed intently.
“Buddha’s relic descends, Accompanying the lotus’s birth, Guiding the world by sharing Dharma…”
Granny Aria’s fingernails are neatly trimmed, without any excess nail.
A strand of sunlight falls upon the words, an ordinary string of characters seemingly shimmering in a faint golden light.
Loretta looked confused: “What does that mean?”
“Within Tantra Buddhism, there’s an age-old legend that posits the resurrection of Buddha’s relics when Udapalvara flowers bloom…”
Buddha’s relics?
As a student of Granny Aria, Loretta also knew a thing or two.
The founding emperor of the Yue Dynasty was once a monk.
Later on, he was repeatedly saved by high-ranking monks.
Therefore, in the Yue Dynasty, Buddhism is the foremost religion.
It holds supreme authority.
Each generation’s Abbot of the Magead Temple is the Yue Dynasty’s national protector master.
In this sense, the political power of the Yue Dynasty is covertly controlled by the church.
“The eighth volume of Phonetic symbols of Huilin states that Udapalvara is a sign of auspicious change, a heavenly flower, non-existent in the worldly world.
If the Tathagata reincarnates or a wheel-turning king is born, bringing immense benevolent influence, this flower would appear.
According to the texts at that time, on the night Princess Madeleine was born, the sky showed a strange sign, could it be…
could it be that Princess Madeleine is that reincarnation of Buddha’s relic?”
If Princess Madeleine was the reincarnation of Buddha’s relic, then why did Emperor Iver let her reputation become tarnished?
The appearance of such a figure in the royal family was earth-shattering at that time.
Granny Aria smiled and shook her head: “A saint is no threat to the political throne, unless they can influence his emperorship.”
Turning a page, Loretta read the text pointed out by Granny Aria aloud: “Sunny encircling the sky, united in subservience, all species gathering at the court, two wings, four feet, Purple Emperor Star Palace, welcoming the dawn, from adversity to prosperity, glory to all nations.”
“These are the prophecies left by the former Astronomical Bureau’s Cao Qingyun in his Ancient Divination.
The Purple Emperor Star Palace refers to the Purple Emperor Star.”
Loretta was astounded: “So, Princess Madeleine is actually of the destiny of the Purple Emperor Star.”
Compared to the prophecy of Buddha’s relics, Emperor Iver believed the Purple Emperor Star posed a bigger threat.
