Chapter 2565: Three People I Haven't Seen for a Long Time
As night fell, a bright moon hung high in the sky, and the cold moonlight sprinkled on the courtyard of the inn.
Yueru pondered for a moment, tapping the stone table lightly with her slender fingers, her eyes moving between Matthew and Xingyan.
After a moment, she said, "Since I left the Black Evil Land, a doubt has been lingering in my heart. From the beginning of the battle between Mo Tu and Xue Shen Zun, the two of them seemed to have known each other's existence long ago, and as soon as they met, they looked ruthless and would not stop until the other was killed. I have seen many people with deep grudges in the past, but it is rare to see such a big fuss like them. Their methods are definitely not just to take the other's life, there seems to be another hidden reason."
This was the first time Yue mentioned these words in front of everyone.
Lian Xingyan couldn't help but be slightly startled after hearing this, and a hint of thought flashed in her eyes.
Xing Yan frowned slightly, thinking about Yue Ru's words carefully, and after a long while, she nodded gently and said, "I have indeed thought about this question. Now it seems that what Yue Ru said makes a lot of sense. The way those two people attacked was clearly premeditated, as if everything was arranged in advance. However, the Blood God only descended to the human world not long ago. If Mo Tu really knew that he would descend, he should have reacted earlier and would not have let the Blood God descend to the human world so smoothly."
As soon as Xing Yan finished speaking, Matthew's eyes suddenly focused, his deep eyes turned quickly a few times, and after a moment, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
Then, Matthew broke the silence by saying, "We seem to have overlooked a very important person."
His words made Yueru and Xingyan slightly stunned, and their minds were full of thoughts.
Soon, the two of them shouted almost in unison: "That bloody monster!"
Matthew nodded slowly, his eyes solemn, "Yes, it was that bloody monster. When the bloody monster showed up that day, I felt something was a little strange. Especially Zhong Wen, he lived with the bloody monster for a long time, it's hard to believe that he knew nothing about the bloody monster's seal. But he kept silent all the time, and didn't reveal a word until he became a weapon spirit, which is really suspicious. I have been confused by this matter before, and I couldn't figure out the mystery behind it."
At this point, Matthew's tone suddenly changed. His eyes stayed on Yueru and Xingyan for a moment, and he continued, "If you say that Zhong Wen has completely forgotten about this matter, I will never believe it. After excluding all impossible factors, the only thing I can think of now is that Zhong Wen and the bloody monster are in the same group. He is willing to become a weapon spirit, probably to free himself and the bloody monster from the seal!"
Matthew took a deep breath, his eyes flickering: "By doing this, Zhong Wen can not only free himself and the bloody monster from the seal, but he may even save his own life. I guess there should be other ways to regain consciousness even if he becomes a weapon spirit."
When Matthew finished speaking, the Jiuxiao Jieyun Sword suddenly appeared in his hand, and the sword emitted a faint light.
The eyes of the three people were now focused on the sword, as if they were trying to find some clues related to the matter from the sword.
Although Matthew's conjecture sounds a bit bizarre, it does make sense if you think about it carefully.
Especially Xingyan and Yueru, after listening to Matthew's analysis, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
The decision to let Zhong Wen become the spirit of the Jiuxiao Jieyun Sword was the Palace Master's idea.
Matthew's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples in the hearts of the two girls.
"Come on, I'll take you to see the Palace Master."
Matthew's eyes were firm and his tone left no room for doubt.
This matter involves many secrets and future situations, and he knows that he must get to the bottom of it as soon as possible.
As soon as he finished speaking, a mysterious purple light suddenly appeared on Matthew's body.
The purple light was like a nimble snake, quickly enveloping the two women.
As the purple light flickered, the space was slightly distorted.
The scene before my eyes changed instantly.
When they looked around again, they were already in a mysterious space.
When Matthew and the other two appeared, the coffin seemed to come to life, and it instantly made a slight humming sound. Then the coffin lid slowly opened, and a stale smell wafted in the face.
Xingyan and Yueru subconsciously glanced at Matthew quickly, their eyes full of panic and anxiety.
Then, without hesitation, they knelt on the ground, their bodies trembling slightly.
"I heard everything you just said. I was indeed not thoughtful enough on this matter."
The woman lying in the coffin slowly sat up. Her voice was not loud, but it echoed in the silent space.
Her tone was neither cold nor indifferent, as if she was stating something that had nothing to do with her, but beneath that calmness, there seemed to be endless waves hidden.
Upon hearing this, Matthew immediately bowed and said respectfully, "Does the Palace Master have a solution?"
The Palace Master looked at the three people calmly and said, "If it were before, I really would have no way. However, now the spiritual peptide has been refined."
As she spoke, she gently raised her hand, and a soft light overflowed from her fingertips, instantly enveloping her body.
The palace master's body slowly floated out of the coffin, as if he had broken free from some invisible restraints.
As the light faded, she landed lightly on the ground with grace and ease.
Xingyan and Yueru, who were kneeling on the ground, saw this scene and their eyes suddenly lit up with joy.
The Palace Master had said before that as long as the spiritual peptide was refined, she would not need to stay in the coffin all the time.
This means that the Palace Master can leave this mysterious space at any time to deal with the complex situation at hand.
After the Palace Master landed, he moved his fingers slightly, and Xing Yan and Yue Ru, who were kneeling on the ground, were controlled by an invisible force and stood up.
"Thank you, Palace Master." Xingyan and Yueru hurriedly bowed again.
Ma Xiu bowed and said, "Palace Master, how should we deal with this complicated situation now? I'm afraid that Zhong Wen's matter has already involved a lot of people."
The palace master frowned slightly, his eyes deep, as if he was thinking about something.
After a moment, she slowly said, "This matter needs to be carefully considered. Zhong Wen was able to plot against me, so there must be something else behind it. He must have something to rely on, and he won't easily reveal his entire plan."
"He has become the spirit of your life magic weapon. If you force him away, it will cause great damage to your magic weapon. Moreover, his consciousness has been completely wiped out. Even if you pull him out, you will not be able to find any information about him."
"Instead of spending time on Zhong Wen, you might as well go directly to Mo Tu and Xue Shen Zun. You will have to face these two people anyway."
After hearing what the palace master said, Matthew nodded slightly.
He had already prepared to go to the Ancient Source Mountains and ask the ghost tribe to help find the traces of Blood God and Mo Tu.
"With the spiritual peptide, I don't need to stay here with you for the time being. In that case, let's act separately." The Palace Master's next words made Matthew's eyes light up slightly.
It seems that the Palace Master is planning to take action himself.
This palace master is extremely mysterious, even the old man Zi Ding is extremely afraid of him. Matthew has known this for a long time.
However, he did not expect that the Palace Master would actually say such a thing.
"What should I do next?" Matthew said after taking a deep breath.
"Zhong Wen used to be my subordinate, so this matter is related to me. In this case, I will go find the Blood God, and you will handle the matter of Mo Tu. However, I will only be responsible for finding the Blood God, and I will not fight him. You will still be needed to handle this matter when the time comes."
The Palace Master had obviously already made plans long ago, and he quickly stated his plan after Matthew asked.
"Okay, no problem. I'll leave the Blood God to you, Lord Palace Master. Do you want to take Xingyan and Yueru away?" Matthew nodded and asked the Palace Master.
"No need. The two of them are used to being with you, and they will not be able to adapt if they come back to me. I can take care of the three of them." When the princess said this, three ripples suddenly appeared around her.
After the ripples flashed quickly a few times, three people appeared.
Matthew naturally knew these three people, namely Gu Ming, Hei Hun and Yue Hu.
He was not very familiar with Yue Hu. He was the person specifically requested by the princess and was also subdued by the princess. He was just placed in a mysterious space by the princess.
Heihun is the descendant of Shouweng, and was entrusted by him to follow Matthew.
Later, he and Yue Hu were handed over to the palace supervisor for instruction.
Gu Ming was entrusted to him by Gu Haiyue, asking him to help take care of him. After Matthew agreed, he kept Gu Ming in the Qinglong bracelet to ensure his safety.
Later, for some unknown reason, the princess took the initiative to ask to take Gu Ming with her.
Matthew himself was busy with various things and really didn't have much time to take care of Gu Ming, so he took advantage of the situation and placed Gu Ming next to the Palace Master, under the pretext of letting Gu Ming and Hei Hun take care of the Palace Master.
Matthew hadn't seen these three people for a long time.
When these three people appeared, Matthew immediately sensed their aura and his expression changed slightly.
He also didn't expect that these three people had already reached the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Moreover, the aura on his body is strong and is not weaker than those long-established Divine Transformation cultivators.
It can be seen that the three of them have indeed gained great benefits and progress by being around the Palace Master.
"Greetings, sir!" After the three people appeared, they first bowed deeply to the palace master, their eyes full of reverence.
Afterwards, they immediately bowed to Matthew and said, "Greetings, Senior Ma!"
Although their tone towards Matthew was not as respectful as that towards the Palace Master, the attitudes of the three were still very sincere.
After all, he also knew that without Matthew, it would be impossible for him to stay by the Palace Master's side.
“Gu Ming, you have made great progress. Your ancestors should now rest in peace.” Matthew calmly accepted the greetings from the three and nodded.
Without waiting for Gu Ming's answer, Matthew immediately said to Hei Hun, "I will be going to the Guyuan Mountains soon. Do you have any message for Shou Weng?"
When Hei Hun heard this, an expression of emotion immediately appeared on his face, but he looked towards the Palace Master.
After seeing the Palace Master nod, he said, "Then please tell me that I am living very well with you, so please don't worry about me."
