Chen Xuan had to admit that this method of naturally transforming book thieves into guardians of the Buddha was highly ingenious. The only fear was that some powerful entities, after gaining enlightenment from the scriptures, might end up causing even greater destruction to the Scripture Pavilion.
As the Cloth Sack Arhat led him higher, Chen Xuan noticed that some thieves were actually locked in secret, long-standing feuds over the same scriptures. The moment a guard left, they would begin battling each other with magical techniques from across the room, all while maintaining absolute silence, without making a single sound. Chen Xuan couldn’t help but admire these thieves; in order to attain enlightenment, they exhausted every possible stratagem, displaying human greed and cunning to the fullest extent.
"Well? Is the show entertaining enough for you?" the Cloth Sack Arhat said with a grin. They ascended another level, and he walked up to one of the bookshelves, tucked a yellowed, old slip of paper into the gap between two scriptures, and then quickly vanished into the shadows.
