บท 40: Chapter 40: Cutting Clothes for Lady Ghost Elder Sister!

Atop the cloud and fog-shrouded Lu Shan Sect, Master Chen walked forward and entered a Daoist temple.

In the temple stood a tall god statue, none other than "Miraculous Salvation True Lord Miaoji" Xu Xun, the Celestial Master Xu.

On either side of the "Miraculous Salvation True Lord Miaoji" statue were several smaller god statues, representing Li Sanniang, Chen Jinggu, and Li Shaniang – the three ladies!

Legends say that these three ladies were sisters, practicing the Lu Shan Sect's Daoist skills, vanquishing spirits and demons, and eventually achieving merit and being sealed as dukes. They're female immortals who protect women and children, so they're also called the Three Ladies or the Three Goddesses.

In Daoist mythology, they're known as the gods who help women with difficult childbirths and therefore are called the "Mother Who Facilitates Natural Birth." In later generations, they gradually became known as "Holy Mother Who Facilitates Natural Birth."
