Sha Chen's words shocked Jin Chanzi, and he nodded in deep agreement.
Indeed, he had been cultivating the Dao for a long time, having followed Daoist Hanshan for ten or twenty years. Not only did he know the Tao Te Ching's Da Luo volume, but he also knew some other things, which was adequate. This way, Buddhism wouldn't suspect Sha Chen, nor would it cause him any trouble.
However, Jin Chanzi felt somewhat aggrieved. He lowered his head, humiliated, and said, "Master, when will I be able to proudly announce that I am from Flowing Sand River and that I am your disciple?"
Sha Chen's heart trembled, and he remained silent for a long time. Just as Jin Chanzi felt guilty, thinking he was pressuring Sha Chen, Sha Chen reached out and patted his shoulder. Jin Chanzi looked up at Sha Chen, his eyes full of guilt, wanting to apologize.
Sha Chen said, "You've been wronged. Just wait; that day will come. If it doesn't... pretend I never said this."
