The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2456 Arrogance

Matthew clenched the Jiuxiao Jieyun Sword in his hand slightly, and his knuckles turned slightly white due to the force.

The sword flashed with a cold light, as if it could sense the fighting spirit that its master was about to release.

He knew very well that facing this monster of unknown origin, it was imperative to test its strength.

Standing there like this is not only meaningless, but it may also allow the other party to find out your true identity.

However, before Matthew could take the initiative, the monster on the opposite side suddenly spoke.

Its voice was low and hoarse, but it carried an inexplicable majesty: "You, a human, have abundant blood and energy, and your magic power is also quite strong. You are much better than those guys I have seen before."

Matthew obviously didn't expect that the monster would actually praise him as soon as he opened his mouth.

He was very surprised by this sudden praise.

In his original idea, the monster should attack directly after appearing, or at least show some hostility, instead of praising it inexplicably like this.

At the same time, Matthew's vigilance did not relax because of the monster's praise, but became even tighter.

He understood that this was the first time the two parties met, and although the other party said this, he must have his own purpose.

This praise may just be a test by the other party, trying to paralyze oneself and lower one's vigilance in this way.

He cannot relax at all and must keep a clear head at all times.

"Are you the Blood God?"

After hesitating for a moment, Matthew decided to ask.

He hoped that by asking this question, he could elicit more information from the other party, thereby gaining a better understanding of their strengths and intentions.

"Oh, it seems like you know a lot of things, even the affairs of the Blood God."

The monster said with interest, its eyes fixed on Matthew.

"But you don't have the slightest vampire aura on you. You must have learned that from the vampires. Those idiots actually told others such a thing. They are really stupid."

Strangely enough, this monster seems to dislike vampires very much.

From the time he first said it until now, anything related to the vampires would be criticized.

This made Matthew feel a little puzzled.

Is there some deep hatred between this monster and the vampires?

Or is he himself an enemy or traitor of the vampires?

Matthew was full of doubts, but he did not show it. He just looked at the monster opposite silently, trying to find some clues from the other's expression and tone.

This time, Matthew did not continue to reply. He just stared at the monster opposite silently, trying to figure out the other party's true intentions.

He knew that any rash response at this time might expose his intentions.

Seeing that Matthew didn't react, the monster's eyes became a little gloomy.

A hint of dissatisfaction and anger appeared on his face at this moment.

This is the first time that someone is not interested in the topic.

Then he spoke again: "You are not bad. I have just woken up and I am in need of a few people to command me. Just be my subordinate."

After the monster finished speaking, it waved its arm and a dark red blood light suddenly shot out from its palm and headed straight towards Matthew.

The blood light was extremely fast, like a stream of light, it instantly cut through the air and came in front of Matthew.

"This is a restriction from me. It won't do any harm if it stays in your body."

After releasing the bloody light, the monster did not forget to remind, with an unquestionable tone in its voice.

When Matthew heard this, his cheeks twitched violently.

The monster's confidence and self-righteousness left him speechless.

He had never seen such an arrogant being who actually tried to control him with just one sentence.

When the blood light flew over, Matthew's eyes instantly became sharp.

He shook his wrist, and the Jiuxiao Jieyun Sword in his hand immediately released a dazzling sword light.

The sword light was as dazzling as the scorching sun, and it instantly cut through the flying blood light.

"boom!"

The sword light and the blood light collided with each other, making a deafening sound.

In an instant, the blood light that was hit turned into a brilliant blood-red glow, and then dissipated directly.

"You're looking for death! In the past, people lined up to be my subordinates, but I didn't even look at them. How dare you reject me? I..."

After the blood light was cut off by the sword light, the monster roared in frustration.

But before it could finish its words, it saw a sword beam that was more than twenty feet long coming straight towards it.

The sword light carried an overwhelming force, as if it was going to tear everything apart.

Upon seeing this, the monster changed slightly, but did not make any other movements. It just raised its left arm.

Its movements may seem slow, but they contain a power that should not be underestimated.

With a strong grasp of his hand, a huge phantom of a hand suddenly appeared.

The shadow of the palm was as heavy as a mountain, and it grabbed towards the flying sword light with an endless sense of oppression.

When the huge palm caught the flying sword light, a series of extremely harsh friction sounds were made.

The friction sound seemed to be able to penetrate the eardrum, making people feel uncomfortable.

Matthew tightly grasped the Jiuxiao Jieyun Sword in his hand and stared at the monster opposite.

After a few breaths, the sword light and the huge palm canceled each other out and disappeared.

"Humph, you do have some skills. But do you think you can escape my control like this?"

The monster looked at Matthew, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by arrogance and he spoke coldly.

Matthew did not respond to the monster's provocation. He knew that now was not the time to argue.

He needed to concentrate more to deal with the next attack that the monster might launch.

As soon as he finished speaking, the aura of the monster changed again.

Its aura grew deeper and more powerful, like a volcano about to erupt, which could erupt at any moment.

The monster's fingers moved slightly, and a blood-red spear about seven or eight feet long shot out from the surrounding fog.

Seeing this, Matthew turned his wrist and released sword beams of different colors.

After seeing the sword light released by Matthew, the monster showed disdain on his face.

In its view, the power of these sword beams was extremely ordinary.

But what it didn't expect was that when Matthew released the sword to attack the spear, a guy of similar size suddenly appeared behind it and launched a sneak attack at this moment.

The one who launched the sneak attack was naturally the Man-God King.

When the sword light just came into contact with the huge palm, Matthew had quietly released the Man-God King.

When the Man-God King launched a sneak attack, several sword beams shot towards the monster.

It looked like an attempt to block the monster's defense.

But the monster paid no attention to the sword beams at all, and turned around and slapped the Human Xiao King who was attacking it.
