Among the green mountains, the Little Novice Monk cocked his head, carefully cradling a massive bump on his forehead, and stared at Su He without blinking, his eyes filled with wonder.
"Master, master. If he's not a demon, how can a person turn into a Peacock?"
The old monk, kind-faced and with the gentle gaze of an elderly man, said with a smile, "The world is so vast, what are a few odd occurrences in the grand scheme of things?"
The Little Novice Monk opened his mouth, feeling somewhat that the old master was hoodwinking him, but he dared not argue back, for arguing would give him a headache!
All he could do was gaze straight at Su He, "Old master, what is the second stage in the Purification Ground? I haven't even been in there."
Only those with steady hearts and exceptional talent could enter the second stage. He was scared of pain and couldn't even pass the first trial.
