The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 1860 Liu Yulong's Conjecture

After Matthew explained some things, he left with the people that Shi Potian and the others had prepared.

After leaving Zhenyuan Jedi, Matthew himself felt a little strange.

He seems to have too much time to deal with various things recently.

There is absolutely no time to practice.

There was nothing he could do about it.

There are too many things that need him to deal with. If he doesn't take care of anything, few people will really be willing to listen to him in the future.

Moreover, what you do is also paving the way for your future.

After returning to the vicinity of the mine, Matthew used Liu Yulong's teleportation array to return to the underground cave.

When Matthew appeared, Xingyan and Yueru immediately turned to look.

The two girls finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Matthew show up.

There was no expression on Matthew's face as he slowly walked towards Liu Yulong.

Suddenly, Matthew's figure shook.

Before Liu Yulong could react to what was happening, Matthew appeared beside him.

Liu Yulong's face suddenly changed, and just as he was about to take action, Matthew's hand had already been placed on his shoulder.

"Fellow Daoist Liu's identity has been confirmed. There is no problem at all. I am really sorry for everything that happened before." Matthew said softly.

After saying this, Liu Yulong immediately realized that the restriction in his body had been lifted by Matthew.

When Matthew's hand left, Liu Yulong also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fellow Daoist Ma is so conscientious and careful in his work, which really makes me admire him."

Liu Yulong turned around and saluted Matthew.

Then Matthew took out four chairs.

After all four of them were seated, Matthew looked at Liu Yulong and said, "Fellow Daoist Liu, I wonder how much you know about the situation inside the Demon Slayer Palace."

"The interior of the Demon Slayer Hall is actually a bit chaotic right now. Ling Yulong and Lu Jiang have conflicting ideas. Ling Yulong is the leader at the moment, and everything you've seen was done by Ling Yulong. Lu Jiang is in charge of the backend and rarely shows up. I haven't seen Lu Jiang in the Demon Slayer Hall in the past few years. On the contrary, I've met Ling Yulong a few times. He gives people a very strange feeling. I can't explain it, but I just don't want to have much contact with him."

Liu Yulong said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, you continue."

Matthew took out a jade slip, recorded everything Liu Yulong said in it, then nodded and said.

This was the first time he heard about the discord between the two Divine Transformation monks in the Demon-Slaying Hall.

I believe that even the blood dwarf doesn’t know what Liu Yulong said.

Otherwise, the blood dwarf would have told Matthew when he went over.

Liu Yulong had no objection to Matthew recording what he said.

He nodded and continued, "In addition to the mine here, the Demon Slayer Palace also has many bases in other places. I will go there and record their locations directly in the jade slip."

After Liu Yulong finished speaking, Matthew immediately handed over the jade slip.

Liu Yulong took the jade slip and placed it on his forehead.

Soon, Liu Yulong returned the jade slip to Matthew.

After checking the contents of the jade slip, Matthew asked Liu Yulong to continue talking about what happened in the Demon-Slaying Palace.

Liu Yulong holds a pretty good position in the Demon-Slaying Hall and knows a lot of secrets.

It also allowed Matthew to have a better understanding of the Demon-Slaying Palace.

"Besides spirit stones, what else is there in this mine?" Seeing that Liu Yulong was slow to talk about the mine, Matthew took the initiative to ask.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yulong looked at Matthew with strange eyes.

He felt that Matthew seemed to know something and was waiting for him to say it.

However, Xingyan and Yueru looked normal, and it seemed that they had no idea what was going on inside.

Liu Yulong hesitated for a moment and then said, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Ma knows about it, so there is no need for me to hide it any longer. This mine is divided into two areas, namely the East Area and the West Area."

"The East District is where people normally mine and dig for spiritual stones. There are a lot of people there. I know of as many as 80,000 to 90,000 people."

"The west area is a forbidden area. Apart from setting up the forbidden array there, I have never entered the west area again. Moreover, I am not the only one who set up the array and restrictions there. There are others who set them up as well."

When Liu Yulong said this, he paused slightly.

It also allows Matthew to record what was said in the jade slip.

After seeing Matthew nod, Liu Yulong continued, "Although I don't know what the West District is doing, every time I enter the mine, some monks always disappear inexplicably. At first I thought they escaped, and I specially checked every passage in the East District, but I didn't find any secret passages that could leave this place."

"After that, I didn't pay too much attention to it. Maybe those monks died somewhere in the East District. After all, the environment inside is very complicated, and there are some gullies and other things. If you fall in, you won't be able to find it."

"But later I heard from some miners who came out that a monster appeared inside. It was very ferocious and took many lives every time it appeared."

"It's just that the monster they described has never been seen before, and it only appears very rarely. Every time it appears, the miners are only concerned with escaping, so no one can really see what the monster looks like."

"I originally planned to go in and look for the monster to see what it was. But the Nascent Soul cultivator from the Demon Slayer Hall stationed here stopped me and wouldn't let me go in. He also said that my duty was to protect the safety outside the mine, and I didn't need to worry about the things inside. Since then, I can only move around the mine and am not allowed to go in."

After saying these words, Liu Yulong stopped again.

This time, not only was he waiting for Matthew to record, but there was also a hint of hesitation on his face.

"You suspect that there is something unspeakable in the West District, right?" Xing Yan also spoke at this moment.

"Yes, I suspect that the missing monks were sent to the West District, but I don't know what happened there."

"From the actions of those people in the Demon Slayer Palace, they don't want me to know what's going on inside. The more they act like this, the more suspicious I become."

Liu Yulong nodded heavily.

He already knew that Matthew and the other two were going to enter the mine. Since he couldn't get in himself, he could only let Matthew and the other two investigate the matter.

This time, Matthew didn't say anything, but took out a stone from the storage bag.

After casting the spell, a curtain of light emerged from the stone.

The content of this light curtain was exactly what Zheng Yu had recorded with the photo stone over those short dozen breaths.

When Xing Yan and the other two finished reading the contents on the light screen, their expressions changed slightly.
