In Buddhism, it was stipulated that each person’s religious name must be unique, typically bestowed by a- master or grandmaster.
Masters were esteemed dignitaries with high moral standing, transcending ordinary Buddhist monks. Their names carried significant religious weight. If such a name was given to a less experienced disciple, it might be too overwhelming, potentially causing more harm than good.
However, Nirvana gently shook his head. “I am also just a mortal. The one who cannot bear the weight of this name is not Emptiness, but me.”
This…
Hearing this. Vajra and Karuna fell silent.
Could it be that Milly was indeed more exceptional, or that her Buddhist affinity was even deeper than Nirvana’s?
Nirvana must have his reasons for doing this. Vajra and Karuna, despite their practice, couldn’t match Nirvana’s wisdom and insight.
After the initiation ceremony, Milly became Master Nirvana’s last secular disciple and thus, the junior of Karuna and Vajra.
The happiest person at this point was Philip.
Leaning on his cane, he was beaming with joy, a stark contrast to his earlier fury.
“No wonder she’s a Burnett. Truly impressive. When she acts, she goes straight to becoming Master Nirvana’s disciple. Who else in the world has such an honour? Hahaha.”
Andrew, standing beside him, looked envious but defiant. “Hmph, you’re still putting on airs after gaining this advantage? Don’t forget, you already kicked Milly out of the Burnetts. Soon, I’ll have George bring Milly over to our family, and she’ll be our little princess”
Philip was instantly agitated. “D“mn it, Andrew! Who said I kicked her out? Stop spreading lies!”
Andrew glared at him coldly. “Can you swear you never said that?”
Philip was speechless.
He had indeed been too impulsive earlier.
On the other side, Stephanie couldn’t believe what she was seeing..
How could Milly become Nirvana’s disciple? Why? What did Milly have that I didn’t?
First the Tates, then Bonnie, and now Master Nirvana. What made Milly so special that everyone wanted to support
her?
Jealousy burned within Stephanie, her eyes flashing with uncontrollable rage.
Milly… Milly

That b*tch!

She had to admit, things were starting to go wrong. Milly hadn’t been reborn, yet some events were changing. What was going wrong?
Or was it fate’s design?
No! Not! This was supposed to be her glorious life. Why should she let it slip away?
If she could make Milly destitute and prematurely dead in their previous life, then this time, she could do it again!
Just then, a voice interrupted her thoughts.
Nirvana, with his hands clasped together, looked at Karuna and said, “I heard you’ve also accepted a disciple. Since Milly and I are here, we can conduct the initiation ceremony together.”
Karuna nodded. “Okay, Master Nirvana.”
He turned toward Stephanie, who was not far away. “Stephanie, come forward for the initiation ceremony. Once it’s done, you’ll officially be part of my sect.”
Stephanie bit her lip. feeling her breath quicken.
She had manoeuvred her way into Karuna’s sect, thinking it was a prestigious position. Now it seemed more like a joke.
Karuna was indeed respected, with a renowned name in the Buddhist community. However, compared to Vajra and Nirvana, he didn’t hold a candle.
If Stephanie went through with the ceremony, it would mean Milly outranked her by an entire level. From then on, she would have to treat Milly with great respect. But if she refused, it would only emphasise that she was inferior to Milly, and she wouldn’t be able to explain it to Grandpa.
Xavier, worried, saw her pale face. “Stephanie, are you okay? If you don’t want to do this, we can stop.”
He knew about the conflict between Stephanie and Milly.
Moreover, with Milly’s overbearing attitude, if Stephanie became Milly’s junior, Milly would likely bully her even more.
Stephanie was already gentle and kind, How could she possibly fare well under Milly’s thumb?
However, Stephanie forced a smile, trying to appear cheerful. “It’s okay, Xavier. I love learning about Buddhism. It’s an honour to join any sect.”
Xavier’s heart ached even more for her. “Stephanie…”
She was so committed to her dream that, even knowing the hardships ahead, she pressed on. What a foolish girl.
Stephanie then walked slowly to Karuna, knelt on the cushion, and bowed. “Greetings, Master.”
Karuna, with his hands clasped, began to pray and chant, “From now on, your Buddhist name will be
Serene.

Stephanie bowed again. “Thank you, Master.”
Karuna nodded and continued, “Serene, go pay your respects to the elders.”

In Buddhist initiation ceremonies, it was customary not only to bow to one’s master but also to the elders,
part
at the process.
This meant she would have to bow to Milly as well!
“Greetings, Grandmaster.”
“Greetings, Master.”
The last one was Milly….
Stephanie dug her nails into her palms, the sharp pain keeping her composed. Even so, it was clear she was trembling with rage.
Her long hair hid the malice and fury in her eyes, which were filled with murderous intent.
She thought, Milly, today’s humiliation will be repaid a hundredfold someday!
She bent her knees, knelt on the cushion before Milly, and bowed her head, hiding any expression. “Greetings, Master.”
Milly licked her lips, feeling much better now that Stephanie had bowed to her.
How satisfying!
If she had known about this perk, she would have become Nirvana’s disciple ages ago. Making Stephanie kneel occasionally was good for her knee development and Milly’s mental health. It was a win–win situation.
