After Zhenjing left, the Buddha Son returned to Listening Cloud Pavilion and sat in silence for a long time.
Although the Buddha Son was born from the Buddha Lotus and naturally possessed a heart of great compassion, remaining relatively insensitive to the seven emotions and six desires of humanity, he was by no means foolish. On the contrary, owing to his clear and transparent mind, he usually viewed the people and events in his own life as an outsider. This allowed him to remain unaffected by external gains or personal losses, granting him even greater clarity of vision. Thus, none of Zhenjing's various reactions could escape his notice.
