The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2334: Unexpected Request for Help

Matthew sat on the sandalwood chair in the middle of the room, tapping the armrests with his fingertips, making a regular "tap-tap" sound.

The candlelight cast a flickering shadow on his face, making his expression seem even more profound and unfathomable.

Yueru stood beside him, her long red dress fluttering in the wind, and a faint chilly aura lingered around her.

"You two, tell me everything you know."

Yueru's voice pierced the silence like an ice cone. She frowned slightly, and a faint blue light flashed in her eyes.

As she finished her words, a bone-chilling chill instantly spread throughout the room, as if even the air had turned into frost.

Guan Shi and Toyota's bodies began to tremble violently, especially Guan Shi, whose forehead was already covered with fine beads of cold sweat.

He raised his head in a hurry and bowed to Yue Ru repeatedly: "Please spare my life, sir! I will tell you right away, right away!"

The two of them rushed to speak, speaking so fast that they almost bit their tongues.

Matthew had already heard some of what they were talking about from other cultivators, such as the blood clan setting up a base in southern Xinjiang and raising blood puppets, and feeding the blood puppets with the essence and blood of young boys and girls on the first night of each month.

But there were also some clues that Matthew had not previously grasped.

"The vampires built a blood pool somewhere,"

Guan Shi's voice trembled with fear.

"It is said that the blood pool leads directly to the underworld and can summon the ancient blood demon..."

Toyota then added: "We also heard that the blood clan has been collecting a special kind of spiritual stone recently, which seems to be used to set up some kind of large formation..."

Matthew's fingers suddenly stopped tapping, and the room fell into dead silence.

Yueru was keenly aware of his changes, and the light in her eyes became brighter.

She raised her hand slightly, and a wisp of Yin Qi wrapped around Guan Shi's neck: "Speak clearly, what spirit stone? What formation?"

Guan Shi's face turned blue from being strangled, and he spoke with difficulty: "It is... it is the Blood Soul Stone... It is said that it can only be found in the deepest veins of the South Border... As for the formation, I really don't know what it is..."

Matthew suddenly stood up and walked to the window. The moonlight shone through the window lattice onto his profile, casting a grim silhouette.

"Contact the four clan leaders immediately and tell them that I'm back."

Matthew turned around, his voice low and powerful.

When Yueru heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Upon hearing this, the two of them nodded quickly and agreed immediately.

Then, the two of them began to perform secret techniques in front of Matthew.

"Ninth Patriarch, the news has been passed to other clansmen through secret methods. They will pass the news to the fourth clan leader as soon as possible." Guan Shi said with his head down, his face full of fear.

"You guys go and take care of your own things." Matthew waved his hand and said.

After hearing this, the two of them felt relieved and left immediately.

Shortly after the two left, Matthew looked at Yueru and said, "The aura must have remained with them."

"Yes, they have stayed. The two of them are now near the inn." Yueru nodded.

"Follow them and see who they contact next." Matthew said softly.

After he finished speaking, Yueru also went out immediately.

Although Guan Shi and Toyota are members of the ghost clan, there is a faint trace of other aura about them.

Matthew originally planned to directly use the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye, but then he thought that the cultivation base of these two people was too low, and the things they could access would definitely not be particularly profound.

It's better to take the long term and catch the big fish.

Now, Matthew has understood that even in southern Xinjiang, the ghost tribe is still not united.

Perhaps the old pervert is not aware of this matter yet.

Another possibility is that the old pervert has also betrayed him.

This is also what Matthew least wants to see, but he knows very well that people will change.

Especially since I have been away for so many years, it is normal for the old pervert to have other thoughts.

Of course, this is just Matthew's guess.

We will have to wait until the old pervert comes back to know everything.

Matthew sat alone in the inn room, the candlelight stretched his shadow long and cast it on the mottled wall.

Outside the window came the sound of the night watchman knocking on the gong, it was already three o'clock in the morning.

He stroked the Guiyi Order in his hand. This palm-sized jade token was covered with mysterious runes and glowed with a faint green light under the candlelight.

"it's time."

Matthew muttered to himself, gathering a ray of magical power at his fingertips and slowly transferring it into the Guiyi Order.

Ripples suddenly appeared on the surface of the token, and an illusory curtain of light unfolded in the air, with dense runes appearing on it, like stars in the night sky.

Matthew stared at the light curtain and began to report in an orderly manner: "The activities of the blood clan in the southern border are becoming more and more rampant. According to reliable information, they are building a blood pool somewhere, which is suspected to be related to the ancient blood demon. In addition, the blood clan is collecting a large number of blood soul stones."

He deliberately concealed the news of the old pervert's disappearance. He needed to verify these key information personally before he could make a conclusion.

Just as he was about to finish his report, the light curtain of Guiyiling suddenly fluctuated violently, and a golden light lit up in the corner, like a candle suddenly lit in the dark night.

"Is fellow Daoist in the Golden City?" A hurried male voice came from the light spot, with obvious panting and panic in the voice.

Matthew frowned slightly. This instant communication function of the Guiyi Order consumes a lot of mana. Unless it is an emergency, few people will use it.

He hesitated for a moment, then responded, "I am in the city, have you encountered any trouble?"

"I have encountered a strong enemy on a mountain a thousand miles north of the city. Please come to my aid as soon as possible! I will reward you handsomely later!"

The golden light flashed violently, and the voice was filled with anxiety that was difficult to conceal.

Matthew sighed inwardly, he knew the rules of Guiyi Society very well - if a fellow disciple was in danger, he had to help unless he was also in a life-and-death situation.

This is the iron rule set by the great men who founded the Guiyi Society. Violators will be severely punished.

"Wait a moment, Taoist friend. I will leave immediately."

Matthew responded in a deep voice, while calculating quickly in his mind.

This person must be at the level of a spirit being, yet he could still be in danger. Moreover, he could also hear from the other party's tone that the situation was very bad.

I was the only member of Guiyi Society near Golden City, and since I had encountered this matter, there was no way I could shirk it.

Moreover, Matthew agreed to this because he wanted to see what happened to the person.

With a flash of his body, Matthew flew out of the window.

With his level of cultivation, even if he deliberately concealed his whereabouts, very few people would be able to discover him.

Even the great formation within the Golden City could not stop him.

However, Matthew did not force his way in to avoid unnecessary trouble.

The guard at the north gate was standing guard. At this moment, he only felt an inexplicable breeze blowing past him, but he saw nothing.
