Yu Chen maintained a straight face and spoke earnestly.
"The monk never tells a lie, and the authentic items just happen to be in the monk's possession."
Everyone was stupefied!
Yu Chen blinked innocently, looking at Elder Pei Liu.
"The monk doesn't understand how it happens that the items Elder Pei Liu happens to sell are exactly what the monk has. Could it be… you had an eye on the monk's possessions long ago?"
Having said that, everyone suddenly saw the light!
Of course! Master Yu Chen surely wouldn't lie. Who is he? A revered monk from Longshan Temple, if anyone lied it wouldn't be Master Yu Chen!
Shen Shaojia's mouth twitched.
"Master Yu Chen... Aren't you talking nonsense?"
Qingwu shrugged her shoulders.
"The monk always feels that as long as everyone believes he is not lying, then what he says is the truth. The path of cultivation lies in the mind, not in moral conduct - being lenient towards oneself and strict towards others has always been the monk's principle."
