Chapter 4877: Escalation

However, even though Ou Xinghe was extremely angry, You Buju in front of him was still calm and even a little lazy.

Perhaps, this is what is called a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

Ou Xinghe glared at You Buju, put his hands on the table, and said angrily: "You Buju, you must give a reasonable result! Must!"

"I don't know what kind of result you want." You Buju leaned back in the chair, shrugged, and said, "I've said, what is that item... We don't know it yet, how can you let us find it? It is the most reasonable result to hand over the Xingzun of the Nandao Temple to you."

Hearing this, Ou Xinghe took a deep breath.

He stared at You Buju, narrowed his eyes, changed his tone, and asked in a deep voice: "Do you really... want to know what that item is?"

"No, don't tell me, I don't want to know." You Buju immediately refused, "I just told you the facts, but I didn't think about knowing that item."

"I tell you, we do have detailed information about that item, but... no one in the Shangdao Temple has seen it." Ou Xinghe said in a deep voice, "The Xing Zun who is about to be executed has seen it, but he didn't find the item, and he will definitely die."

"If you want to know what the item is, I can let you know. But... after you see it, you must find the item back, otherwise..."

You Buju's face was expressionless, and his eyes were deep.

He repeatedly emphasized that he didn't know what the item was, and he was indeed resentful at the beginning.

An order came down from the top, asking them to search the whole continent for something they didn't know what it was... How to find it?

He even felt that the Grand Hall Master and Ou Xinghe in front of him did not trust him, so he simply gave up and perfunctorily dealt with the matter.

It was not until this moment, after hearing Ou Xinghe's explanation, that the resentment in his heart dissipated.

"Deacon Ou, I solemnly tell you again that I have always asked my men to search for this item, but I really can't find it, and I have no choice." You Buju sat up a little straight and said, "No matter how much you force me, the result will not change."

"Hehe, You Buju, You Buju, don't say these useless words to me again." Ou Xinghe sneered and said, "I don't know whether you have tried your best to do this?"

"Deacon Ou, I don't understand what you mean by trying your best? Do you want me to go to the southern continent in person and join those search teams?" You Buju asked with his eyes wide open.

"You should do this!" Ou Xinghe said angrily.

You Buju looked at Ou Xinghe steadily, then shook his head, leaned back in his chair, and said, "Why bother? Is this for the Daoshen Clan or for the East Prison?"

"Whether it is for the Daoshen Clan or the East Prison, we will not get the rewards we deserve, why should we risk our lives for them?"

"I have said so much, don't you understand what I mean?" Ou Xinghe gritted his teeth in anger, stared at You Buju, and squeezed out a few words, "The importance of the Daoshen Clan to this matter is beyond your imagination!"

"Do you think this is something that can be easily passed over? No!"

"A few days ago, the Grand Hall Master was urgently summoned to the Daoshen Clan... Did you know?"

Hearing this, You Buju, who had always been indifferent, gradually changed his eyes.

He sat up again, looked at Ou Xinghe, and asked, "What happens next?"

"The Grand Master was reprimanded mercilessly by the Great Master of the Dao God Clan! And a death order was issued, fifteen days!"

"Within fifteen days, if we still can't find the item that Lu Qing took away from the East Prison, then... our entire Upper Dao Temple will be severely punished!"

"This is not something you can take responsibility for by pushing out a Xing Zun! If this matter is not handled well, the Grand Master, me, you, other members, and even the entire Dao Temple... will be implicated!!!"

Ou Xinghe gritted his teeth and said this.

And at this moment, You Buju's expression was full of shock.

To be honest, before this moment, he really didn't take this matter to heart.

After all, the East Prison is so far away, and the chance of finding the item itself is slim.

He really thought that handing over the Xing Zun who executed Lu Qing in advance would solve most of the problems.

But now, from Ou Xinghe's unprecedented serious words, he could hear that... the importance and consequences of this matter were far beyond his expectations!

Even the Grand Hall Master was summoned by the Dao God Clan to be reprimanded... This shows that the Dao God Clan attaches great importance to this commission from Dongyu!

If this matter is not handled well, then what awaits him will be a very bad result.

At least, he can no longer happily reap the benefits as before.

"I didn't want to tell the truth and put too much pressure on you... But now, I don't want to say it but I have to say it. I think... you should be able to understand the current situation." Ou Xinghe sat back in his chair, looked at You Buju, and said in a deep voice.

"Fifteen days... There are no clues at present, no clues, fifteen days is so short... How can we find that item?!" You Buju looked at Ou Xinghe and asked.

"The Grand Hall Master means that you Nanwu Pavilion... temporarily put aside all other things and focus on dealing with this matter!" Ou Xinghe said with a stern look in his eyes, "You have excellent relations with various forces in the southern continent, mobilize these forces and let them help search!"
