Hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Rushi's expression suddenly changed.
His face darkened as he said, "If it were something else, there might be room for discussion, but not with the Relic. Dragon King, please leave!"
Mu Jinyu persuaded, "Master, why must you be so, with the situation being so severe? If we do not promptly find a way to shelter all beings, sooner or later they will be plunged into misery. Would you want to see that happen?"
"Is the Dragon King trying to morally blackmail me?" Rushi remained unmoved, his tone cold and harsh.
Mu Jinyu shook his head and said, "I'm not trying to morally blackmail you; I genuinely need the Arhat Relic in your possession. And it's not for free—I'm willing to meet your terms, be it gold, magical instruments, or even demons, anything I can offer, I will strive to satisfy your demands."
"No need, the Arhat Relic is a treasured possession of our Guang Buddha Temple, and it cannot be loaned out. Dragon King, please leave!" Rushi still refused.
