The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Matthew stayed in the Fire House for a full ten years.

Although these ten years have been very boring, Matthew's originally impetuous mood has been soothed like never before.

When he put all his thoughts into refining the weapon and got rid of all distracting thoughts, his state of mind was also tempered unconsciously.

After he came out of the Earth Fire House, he walked directly towards the teleportation array.

Now he has a lot of confidence in refining his natal magic weapon.

The next step is to enter the mysterious space and become familiar with the refining process of the Golden Crow Burning Sky Sword.

When he was about to arrive at the location of the teleportation array, he saw a person surrounded by several people.

The person being surrounded was none other than Sun Er.

As for the people surrounding Sun Er, Matthew had never seen them before, but their cultivation levels were not high.

The highest level is only at the early stage of foundation building.

"For the sake of giving me the fragment, I'll help you again." Seeing Sun Er begging for mercy from several people, Matthew sighed and said to himself.

If it weren't for the fact that the fragment Sun Er gave him was big enough and something Matthew urgently needed, he really wouldn't want to meddle in these nosy matters.

Sun Er, who was begging for mercy, was suddenly startled. He quietly raised his head and glanced in the direction of Matthew, then he cupped his hands and said, "I know I was wrong. The things are hidden outside the city. You can go and get them with me."

"Hmph, this old man won't be willing to accept some pain." One of them said viciously after kicking Sun Er.

"After I give you the things, I just ask you not to come here again." Sun Er patted the dirt on his body and begged for mercy.

After saying that, he led a few people and walked out of the city.

Matthew silently followed a few people.

Following out of the city, Matthew calmed down and followed from a distance.

Sun Er took several people out a long distance.

When they came to a cliff, Sun Er stopped.

"Old man Sun, are you kidding us?" someone who was already a little impatient shouted loudly as he left.

After saying that, he raised his hand and slapped Sun Er in the face.

But at this moment, hundreds of ice needles shot out from all directions.

The ice needles were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, several people were pierced through their bodies.

Only the foundation-building monk saved his life because he released the defensive weapon in time.

Although he did not die on the spot, this person was already pale with fright.

When he was about to escape, a huge blue spear appeared and directly destroyed the man's defensive weapon.

It also pierced his body.

Seeing the foundation-building monk who was pinned to the ground and completely lifeless, Sun Er burst into tears.

After dealing with a few people, Matthew came to Sun Er calmly.

Seeing Matthew appear, Sun Er wiped the tears from his face and kowtowed to Matthew repeatedly.

"Get up." Matthew raised his wrist and said softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Er, who was still kowtowing, stood up from the ground uncontrollably.

"Thank you, Senior Ma!" After standing up, Sun Er bowed again.

"Who are these and why are they bullying you?" Matthew asked, glancing at the body on the ground.

"These are all members of the Situ family. I have offended them before. Later, when they saw my sudden improvement in cultivation, they kept asking me why." Sun Er said with a bitter smile.

Sun Er's face was full of exhaustion, and it seemed that he had been bullied by these people during this period.

"Then after I deal with these people, will you be fine in the future?" Matthew asked softly.

"The old patriarch of the Situ family has passed away. There is an internal competition for the position of patriarch. Only these few powerless people will pay attention to the little old man. It will be fine." Sun Er knew what Matthew was worried about. , hurriedly explained.

Seeing that Sun Er said so confidently, Matthew felt relieved.

He was not worried about the Situ family's revenge on him. He was about to leave the Divine Weapon City and he didn't know if he would come back, so there was no need to worry.

The reason why I asked this was because I was afraid that if Sun Erwan confessed himself, it might cause more trouble.

"You are already at the thirteenth level of Qi refining. That's all. I promised you back then that I would help you build the foundation. Now I will fulfill your wish." Feeling the traces of deathly energy emanating from Sun Er's body, Matthew sighed.

"No need, senior." But to Matthew's surprise, Sun Er shook his head and refused.

"Wouldn't it be nice to live longer?" Matthew asked doubtfully.

"During this period, I have also looked away. I have no worries and no one around me to talk to. What's the point of living for a few more decades." Sun Er sighed softly.

"I can give you time to think about it. I will leave tomorrow morning." After Matthew finished speaking, he disposed of the bodies on the ground and walked to the edge of the cliff to sit down.

Not long after Matthew sat down, Sun Er left on his own.

Matthew didn't care where Sun Er went, he would leave immediately as soon as daybreak.

This sitting lasted all night.

When there was a hint of light on the horizon, Matthew stood up.

When he was about to return, he saw Sun Er running over from a distance.

"Senior, wait a moment!" Sun Er, who ran up to him, said anxiously.

"Have you figured it out?" Matthew asked after stopping.

"I am so lucky to be able to meet my senior in the rest of my life. I don't dare to ask for anything else. This is my only hope for survival. I hope this thing can follow my senior." After finishing speaking, Sun Er took out a bag from his arms. Just a flat wooden box.

Matthew took the wooden box and opened it, and saw a square piece of jade inside.

"Where did you get this?" Matthew asked after looking at the jade pieces in the box for a few times.

"This item was handed down from the ancestors of my Sun family. It was also discovered during ancestor worship a few years ago. When I found this box, there was a piece of paper on it, asking the descendants of the Sun family to keep this item properly. As for the jade piece The paper didn't say what it was used for." After handing over the wooden box, Sun Er obviously relaxed a lot, and there was still a trace of a smile on his face when he spoke.

"Since it belongs to your ancestors, why don't you keep it? I can let you build the foundation." Matthew frowned slightly and asked.

"I'm tired, little old man. I want to go down and accompany my grandson." When Sun Er said this, there was a sense of determination in his tone.

"Okay, I'll take it then." Matthew sighed, then covered the box in his hand and put it in the storage bag.

Everyone has his own ambitions, and there is only so much he can do.

Since Sun Er chose to give up foundation building, he would not force the other party.

When Matthew put away the wooden box, Sun Er bowed deeply to him, and then walked towards the cliff.

Looking at Sun Er sitting on the edge of the cliff, Matthew paused briefly and then walked towards the Divine Weapon City.

He could see that Sun Er obviously felt a sense of relief after handing the wooden box to him.

Perhaps, for him, living is really a kind of torture.

Putting these thoughts aside in his heart, Matthew returned to the city and left the Divine Weapon City through the teleportation array.
