The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

The patriarch also understands his own physical condition.

After Matthew gave him the pill, he took it immediately and began to regulate his breathing and meditate.

Even if outsiders use their magic power to help refine the medicinal power, it is still external force after all.

Only what you refine yourself can be better integrated into your body.

This time the refining took several hours.

After the elixir was completely refined, the patriarch's originally pale face became tinged with red.

"Thank you, Ninth Patriarch. If it weren't for your top-grade pill, I might not have survived." After finishing his practice, the great patriarch whispered to Matthew.

"Your injuries are very serious, and my medicine can only provide temporary relief. What on earth happened in Zhenyuan Jedi that made you become like this?" Matthew said, shaking his head slightly.

After Matthew finished speaking, the patriarch did not answer immediately, but hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"The Ghost Clan and the Jinding Sect are finished. Apart from me, only a few people escaped."

Just this short sentence made Matthew and the two girls' expressions suddenly change.

While the patriarch was recuperating, they also loved to discuss what had happened in Zhenyuan Jedi.

The worst outcome they could imagine was that the Zhenyuan Jedi would be breached by the demon army.

However, they have prepared so many means that even if they are defeated, they will have no problem retreating.

But as soon as the patriarch opened his mouth, he announced that all the forces in the Zhenyuan Jedi were finished. How could this not shock Matthew and the others?

The chieftain did not intend to keep the secret, and after taking a deep breath, he continued, "We have always been on guard against people sneaking into our organization, and our focus has been on those places where traitors may appear. However, we have overlooked the possibility that traitors may appear among the top leaders!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Matthew and the other two instantly turned gloomy.

Although the patriarch only said these few words, Matthew already understood that the problem this time was internal.

But he couldn't think of who would betray the forces within the Zhenyuan Jedi.

The chieftain did not let him guess any more and spoke again, "The news we received earlier was that the two major forces of the Demon Slayer Hall and the God Slaughter Hall began to clash, right? You should have known about this, right?"

"Yes, Brother Xue told me about this when he came here last time." Matthew nodded.

"At first, we thought so too. We planned to take advantage of the conflict between the two major powers to develop us. But later, I found something wrong. After I went out to investigate myself, I found out that the two major powers were deliberately putting on a show for us."

"It was not until later that I realized that the Demon Slayer Temple was just a branch of the God Slaughter Temple. Although the name and style are different, they are completely under the command of the God Slaughter Temple."

"They have been eyeing Zhenyuan Jedi for a long time, waiting for us to grow stronger, and then swallow us up in one fell swoop!"

"It's also my fault. I lived so many years in vain and only found out about such an important thing at the last moment."

After the patriarch said this, his face was full of annoyance and regret.

“Even if there is a traitor among our high-ranking members, it is not so easy for the Temple of Slaughter to swallow us up. We have deployed so many means, it shouldn’t be the case that only a few people escape.” Xing Yan asked with a frown.

She also hasn't figured out who among the top leaders has betrayed her.

But after she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something and looked at the patriarch with an incredible expression.

Similarly, Matthew was looking at the patriarch in surprise at this moment.

Obviously, he had thought of something, but he was not brave enough to confirm it.

"That's right. The one who betrayed us was the blood dwarf. It was because of him that most of the defenses we prepared were useless. Moreover, he secretly set up a teleportation array to directly teleport the people from the God-Slaying Temple into our territory."

"At that time, a large number of demons attacked Zhenyuan Jedi, and we were busy fighting against them. This kind of thing happened several times before, and everyone was doing their own things in an orderly manner."

"The blood dwarf chose that time and suddenly activated the hidden teleportation array, catching us off guard."

The patriarch finally gave a brief account of what had happened.

Although it was just a few short sentences, Matthew could still hear how bad the situation was.

"Liu Yulong's clansmen should have rebelled as well." Matthew asked after a moment of silence.

The patriarch was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked at Matthew with some surprise and said, "How did you know? They control the restrictions and development of many places. They have indeed caused the greatest damage to us."

After hearing this, Matthew exhaled heavily and said, "The blood dwarf went out earlier and said he was doing something, but later he brought out Liu Yulong. I guess he must have been separated from us at that time. The mine was probably also a trap set by them. Maybe their original plan was to let the three elders kill me. It's just that I acted faster."

When Matthew said this, there was already a chill in his eyes, and a faint murderous intent emanated from his body.

"How is Shi Potian? Did he escape?" Xing Yan asked softly.

Everyone knows the relationship between Shi Potian and the blood dwarf. When the blood dwarf rebelled, Shi Potian should be the saddest and most angry person.

"He... has gone crazy... and was captured by the people from the Temple of Slaughter." The patriarch said after hesitating for a moment.

Hearing this, Matthew and the other two's faces darkened again.

"The God-Slaughtering Temple attacks us not because they want to kill us all, but because they want to recruit our people and use them for their own purposes." The patriarch said again.

Although the patriarch did not say it explicitly, Matthew and the others knew it.

The so-called recruitment is nothing more than being used as cannon fodder, or being captured to be refined into human goblins.

No matter which one, the ending for the cultivators in Zhenyuan Jedi will not be good.

"Where are those who escaped? I need to find them first. Also, since you can be teleported here through this teleportation array, then the monks from the God-Slaying Temple should be able to be teleported here as well." Yue Ru said in a deep voice.

"The others have been placed in a place that only I know about. They are safe for now. Don't worry about the teleportation array. I have a trick up my sleeve. After the teleportation, the teleportation array over there will break on its own."

After the patriarch said this, Yueru left immediately.

Without asking, one can tell that she was going to destroy the teleportation array here.

Although the teleportation array over there was destroyed, it is still possible to repair it as long as the blood dwarfs are here.

Yueru was very fast and came back shortly after she left.
