Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2407

The next day, Peanut and Leah return to tell Shannon that they'd located Maureen's missing soul fragment, but it wasn't easy for them to enter.

Whether it was coincidence or something more, the missing soul fragment just happened to be in the same monastery where Alex currently stayed.

Monasteries were sacred Zenyoist grounds, and entry wasn't easy even for phantom cultivators.

Thinking of Maureen, whose first half of her life had nearly been ruined, Shannon decided to visit in person. And to her surprise, Zane took the initiative to ask if he could come along.

He wasn't worried about how Alex was doing in the monastery. Unlike Eva or Zane, he'd never cared too much about Alex, whose parental role was almost nonexistent.

But now, Zane had taken over the Jensen family's charitable foundation, which aimed to help trafficked women and children find their families. He thought he could use this chance to locate that missing soul fragment too.

So, the two set off for Mossroot Monastery the next day.

At this point, Alex had been in the temple for exactly three days. Unlike Hector's promised full week, Alex was already on the verge of giving up on the third day.

Monastic life was nothing like he'd imagined. He'd assumed it would be nothing more than listening to mantras and spending the rest of the day in peace and enlightenment.

He'd imagined scenes where he would sip tea in quiet courtyards, enjoy the ambiance of the ancient monastery, practice a vegetarian diet, and contemplate an enlightened existence.

Instead, he had to get up at 6:00 am for workouts, followed by morning meditations and copying mantras.

This was somewhat similar to other devotees, but unlike them, his schedule was twice as intense. He had to meditate twice, copy double the mantras, and cook his vegetarian meals. During noon breaks when others could rest, he had to attend cultural classes and recite mantras.

When others could rest, he still had to clean the pavilion.

When he asked why, the answer was that he was here to become a monk, not for short-term practices.

With his entire day crammed from dawn to dusk, Alex had no time to think about the days of being trapped in the tortoise's body.
