Hearing Qi Lianmi's account, the expressions on Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian's faces gradually darkened. As they watched Zhan Guo sitting quietly in a corner of the flying boat behind them, they couldn't help but feel some compassion for him.
It turned out that Zhan Guo was the king of Danhun Kingdom and had been raised in a temple since he was a child. Because of this, he was kind-hearted, believed strongly in Buddha Dharma, and became the rightful successor to the throne when the old king died.
After becoming the new king, he devoted himself to governing the country, reducing taxes, building temples, spreading kindness throughout the country, making great vows, and doing good deeds, hoping to accumulate merit and achieve enlightenment through good deeds.
During his short reign of three years, he had several times become a monk, devoting himself to the largest temple in the country, Kong Lin Temple, and was several times redeemed by his ministers at a high price.
