The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

King Shenniu's expression was not very good at the moment.

His pair of copper-bell-like eyes looked at the old man opposite from time to time.

This old man is called Wu Xi, and he is in the middle stage of Jindan.

Matthew and Wu Xi met in this area.

Matthew was also a little surprised that there was an unexpected human here.

He immediately brought Wu Xi back and planned to question him.

But before he could ask a few questions, King Shenniu rushed over in a hurry.

"I am not here to make a deal, but to take Fellow Daoist Wu Xi away." King Shenniu turned his eyes and looked at Matthew and said.

"Oh, Fellow Daoist Wu Xi was your accomplice?" Matthew asked with a smile.

"Not really. He just came here to make pills for me. I didn't expect him to run away." King Chenniu said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Matthew nodded slightly and said, "Since you were invited by fellow Taoist to make the elixir, then naturally I will let you take it back. However, before that, I need to ask you something."

After hearing what Matthew said, King Shenniu frowned, and there was a hint of unkindness in his eyes when he looked at Matthew.

"I know you are stronger than Danglu, but this is my territory now. I won't blame you for barging in like this. You should go back and ask Wu Xi what he is doing in my territory before considering other things."

Faced with King Shenniu's unfriendly look, Matthew did not give in at all and directly ordered him to leave.

"Okay, very good, fellow Daoist, you are really confident in your own strength. Don't think that just because you killed Danglu, no one in the Tianyao Mountains can do anything to you!" After hearing what Matthew said, King Chenniu's face turned completely gloomy, and he said in a cold voice.

"You kings are used to being high and mighty, and always act as if no one can see you clearly. That's how you died on the road, and now you come again. I'll just smash you to death as well."

Matthew said, and stood up.

A terrifying aura burst out from his body.

At the same time, Xingyan and Yueru also quietly appeared on both sides of King Shenniu, and would take action immediately as long as Matthew gave the order.

King Shenniu was not to be outdone and released an even more violent aura from his body.

At this tense moment, the aura of King Shenniu suddenly subsided.

He stood up, glanced at Wu Xi, and said coldly: "I hope that after you finish asking questions, you can send this person back as soon as possible!"

After saying that, he left the place directly.

Wu Xi had already been frightened by the scene just now. He did not expect that the person he met would have the courage to confront King Shen Niu.

Moreover, according to what they said, the powerful king in Tianyao Mountain Range had already died at the hands of the young man in front of them who looked to be only in his twenties.

This made Wu Xi feel that his mind was a little stagnant.

Just as he was hesitating about how to start speaking, a cool breeze blew past him.

Then, Wu Xi knew nothing.

The dream-inducing technique was performed, and Matthew began to question Wu Xi.

About half an hour later, Matthew asked Xingyan to temporarily place Wu Xi in the cave.

Through the art of dream guidance, Matthew learned some things about Wu Xi.

Wu Xi did not volunteer to make elixirs for King Shenniu, but was captured by the other party when he came here to pick elixirs and was forced to stay and make elixirs.

King Shenniu asked him to refine a kind of elixir called the Blood-burning Pill.

Matthew knew about this Blood Burning Pill. It was a kind of magical elixir.

After taking it, one will burn one's own essence and blood, thereby exerting a strength far beyond one's true strength.

Of course, the consequences are also very serious. Once the medicinal power is exhausted, the person taking it will die because all the essence and blood in his body are depleted.

Wu Xi has been captured for more than ten years and has been refining elixirs day and night.

And there is more than just Wu Xi, there are more than a dozen alchemists like him.

The longest time he was arrested was almost thirty years ago.

Wu Xi couldn't stand such a life, so he found an opportunity to escape.

I just ran here and met Matthew.

Although Matthew was a little curious about why King Shenniu needed these alchemists to refine so many Blood-Burning Pills.

But he would not go to King Shenniu to inquire about other things because of this matter.

As for Wu Xi, he also planned to send him back in a few days.

After all, he didn't know Wu Xi, so there was no need to continue offending King Shenniu because of this person.

A few days later, Matthew gave the old pervert a few words and asked him to take Wu Xi to King Shenniu's cave.

"Senior, if I go back this time, I will lose half my life if I don't die. King Shenniu is cruel and many people have died in his hands."

Seeing that Matthew was going to send him back to King Shenniu, Wu Xi knelt down on the ground and wailed with fear on his face.

Faced with Wu Xi's wailing, Matthew remained indifferent.

He did not have the kind of compassionate heart, nor would he put himself in greater danger by rescuing a stranger who had nothing to do with him.

This is the way the world is. Since Wu Xi chose to escape, he should have thought about the consequences of being caught.

Matthew didn't say anything, but winked at the old pervert and got up and left.
