"This..."
After Tao Qian spoke, Tianshou, the old monk, suddenly showed a troubled expression.
He was enjoying himself in his own Cave Mansion when suddenly a young monk cast a spell and called him forth, demanding right off the bat that he open the Convenient Gate.
If it had been from someone he knew well, it might have been alright, but to make such a rash request upon their first meeting was really not a good sign.
Tianshou's eyeballs rolled, and his thoughts spun quickly.
Clearly he intended to refuse, yet he worried these two might suddenly become aggressive.
At that moment, he saw the monk smile and say,
"I forgot to mention, though I am not a monk from Demon Buddha Temple, I have a deep connection with your esteemed Temple."
"My master, Qingjing Zen Master, is also good friends with Shipi, Kongchan, and Lian Sha—the three Arhats."
"When they saw my journey to this place, Arhat Kongchan was very generous and loaned me this Buddha Treasure to play with."
