The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

After arriving on Qingyu Jin Xiaopeng's back, Matthew put Sun Wang down.

He now has no magic power, cannot open the storage bag, and has no way to check the specific condition of Sun Wang's injuries.

However, from the current perspective.

Sun Wang should not have suffered a fatal injury, otherwise he would not have been able to hold on until now.

"Thank you, senior." Lying on Qingyu Jin Xiaopeng's back, Sun Wang breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly expressed his gratitude.

"It was me who brought you to the Jinding Sect, and it was because of me that you suffered this torture." Matthew sighed and shook his head.

"How can I blame you for this? If it weren't for you, I would have been a dead body now." Sun Wang waved his hands quickly and said.

Because the movement was a bit too big, it affected the wound and he grimaced in pain.

After taking a few breaths, Sun Wang spoke again: "Being trapped here recently has made me think through a lot of things. I used to think that the blood dwarf was really abominable, but now thinking about some of the details, I think he seems to have some difficulties."

Sun Wang’s words made Matthew and the other two slightly stunned.

Obviously, it was also surprising that Sun Wang would say such a thing.

"What do you mean?" Xing Yan asked with a frown.

"Before the blood dwarfs rebelled, I stayed with him all the time. Several times, I saw him sitting there in a daze. I also asked him several times, but he ignored me."

"But I could still tell from his facial expression that something was wrong, so I thought he might have a real reason."

After hesitating for a moment, Sun Wang said it very affirmatively.

Sun Wang's words made Matthew and the others look a little strange.

It wasn't that they doubted Sun Wang's words.

It's already this time, Sun Wang shouldn't deceive them about this matter.

After all, the Jinding Sect had long been destroyed.

Even the Demon-Slaying Palace is gone.

Everything is over now. There is no need to deceive them anymore.

Afterwards, Matthew and the others asked in detail about everything that happened to the blood dwarfs before their rebellion.

They had never understood these things before.

Even Shi Potian didn't stay with the blood dwarf during that period, so he didn't know the specific situation at that time.

Now, the only one who knows what happened is Sun Wang.

While Sun Wang was here, he had sorted out everything that had happened before.

The explanation was also extremely smooth.

"At that time, the blood dwarf suddenly activated the magic circle, trapping me and some other people inside. At that time, I just thought that the blood dwarf wanted to control us magicians first after his rebellion."

"But, after thinking about it carefully during this period of time, I found that things are not that simple. If he really wanted to rebel, why didn't he just kill all of us? With his strength, he could easily do that."

"But he locked us up in a magic circle. Now that I think about it, he most likely wanted to protect us. However, after the people from the Demon Slayer Hall came in, the magic circle we were in was discovered. That's why we were captured and taken to the Demon Slayer Hall."

After explaining what he knew, Sun Wang again expressed his guess.

"Yes, I was also imprisoned in the magic circle at that time. Later, the magic circle was destroyed by the people from the Demon Slayer Palace. At first, I thought the blood dwarfs did this on purpose because they were afraid that we would escape."

"Now that I've heard what Sun Wang said, I feel that the blood dwarf wanted to use those magic arrays to protect us."

After Sun Wang finished speaking, Lan Yue nodded with a heavy face and said.

"No matter what his purpose is, he has definitely betrayed the Jinding Sect. However, now is not the time for us to care about the blood dwarf. What we need to do is to leave here first." Matthew said after hesitating for a moment.

"That's right, you should rest and heal your injuries first. We don't know how long it will take to leave here, and thinking about those things is useless now." Xing Yan nodded.

After she finished speaking, Qingyu Jin Xiaopeng continued to fly forward.

Before long, they came to a rock.

This stone was different from the ones they had encountered during this period.

This rock was much larger than the one they were on now.

"Little Master!" Lan Yue waved and shouted at the big rock.

Soon, Yueru's figure appeared on the stone.

What surprised Matthew and the others was that after Yueru appeared, another person appeared, and it was Lu Jiang.

Fortunately, no one has any magical power now, so there is no need to be afraid of Lu Jiang.

"I heard the blood dwarf mention you. He said you are the strongest person in the Jinding Sect. In my opinion, you are not only the strongest, but also the bravest." After Lu Jiang appeared, he looked at Matthew and said slowly.

At this moment, Lu Jiang's white hair was scattered randomly.

His face was covered with wrinkles, and even his eyes were almost covered by the wrinkled skin.

Moreover, the walking speed was very slow, and even a little shaky.

In this state, Matthew and the others could tell at a glance that Lu Jiang did not have much time left.

"Master, he first burned his lifespan, and then was attacked by the secret technique. Now he doesn't have much life left. He is already dying."

Since Yueru was with Lu Jiang, she must have known about Lu Jiang's situation.

Moreover, Yueru speaks very frankly without any reservations.

Upon hearing this, Matthew did not say anything, but jumped directly from the back of Qingyu Jin Xiaopeng and landed on the stone.

After Matthew jumped down, Xingyan and Lanyue followed suit.

"Fellow Daoist, are you planning to attack me here?" Seeing the three people falling on the rock, Lu Jiang was not at all panicked and said calmly.

"Since my maid has kept you until now, it means you are still of some use. Why don't we sit down and have a good talk?" Matthew said with a smile, folding his arms.

"Okay, you all know I won't live long anyway. I have seldom spoken to anyone since I entered the world of immortal cultivation, so it would be nice to have someone to talk to before I die." Lu Jiang said with a forced smile on his old face.

Upon hearing this, Yue Ru immediately led them into the stone.

It was only at this moment that Matthew discovered that there was actually a pit inside the stone.

Inside the pit, there was a simple stone slab and several stones.

It can also be considered a table and chairs.

After Yueru brought Matthew and the others here, she let Matthew sit on the largest stone.

The others consciously stood behind Matthew.

Lu Jiang was moving very slowly, and Matthew and the others did not wait for him deliberately, they were all seated.

Only then did Lu Jiang come over slowly and leisurely.
