Master Liaowu almost spat out a mouthful of blood!
He had a misconception that Yun chujiu must have set up a trap on purpose. She had wanted to kidnap the Buddha’s candle in the first place. It was too wicked!
If he said it out loud, what would he do now? Could he just watch Yun Chujiu kidnap their Zen sect’s Buddha’s candle?
Master Liaowu thickened his skin and said,
“Almsgiver Yun, that may be the case, but there are exceptions to everything. After all, this Buddha’s candle is an important treasure of our Zen sect. You See...”
Yun Chujiu summoned the Buddha’s candle from her left palm and said, “Master Liaowu, how about this? Let this Buddha’s candle choose for itself. If it chooses you, I will immediately cancel the contract with it.
“If it chooses me, nothing can be forced. The Buddha’s candle will belong to me. What do you think?”
