The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

With the help of Blue Moon, Matthew seemed to have a pair of eyes that could see through hidden things, and was able to know those situations hidden in the dark that he was originally unable to perceive.

He stood there quietly, sorting out the subtle changes in the expressions of the two figures one by one.

Every flicker of the eyes and every movement of the corners of the mouth were infinitely magnified in his mind.

As he thought, a faint smile slowly appeared on the corner of Matthew's mouth. In that smile, there was a sense of complacency that came from knowing everything, and also a hint of excitement about the upcoming action.

As he moved his fingers slightly, as if triggering some mysterious mechanism, the two figures were instantly surrounded by a deep dark blue light.

The light came so suddenly, like a flash of lightning in the night sky, leaving the white shadow and the black shadow no time to react.

The moment the light appeared, their faces, which had been pretending to be calm, could no longer remain calm, and their eyes were filled with shock and fear.

"Fellow!"

Bai Ying was the first to react, his voice filled with a hint of anxiety and panic.

"Although we did have the intention to plot against you before, it was only a momentary confusion. But from the beginning to the end, we have never done anything substantial to harm you! Not only that, we also fought bloody battles for you, repelled those ferocious monsters, and took the trouble to bring you to this safe place. You can't repay kindness with enmity!"

As Bai Ying spoke, he tried to struggle, but found that his body was restrained by an invisible force and he could not move.

"Yes!"

The black shadow also quickly echoed, with a bit of anger and unwillingness in his voice.

"Is this how you humans treat your saviors? Where have your moral principles and gratitude gone?"

The black shadow's face was full of ferocity, with veins bulging on his forehead. It was obvious that he was both shocked and angry.

However, they did not know that the power of luck that Matthew had previously transferred into their bodies had finally awakened like a sleeping beast, erupting with astonishing power.

The reason why Matthew had been patient in dealing with them and had said so many words before was actually because he was waiting for the power of luck to completely assimilate the energy in their bodies like a silent vine.

This is the most terrifying thing about the power of destiny. It is silent, yet unstoppable, like the torrent of time. Once it starts, it is difficult to reverse.

However, the energy of these two figures was too strong, and the assimilation process was much longer than Matthew had expected.

Matthew knew this very well, so he kept using words to delay time. It seemed that he was talking to them, but in fact he was buying more time for the power of luck.

He cleverly observed their reactions and constantly adjusted his strategy, with each sentence like a carefully placed chess piece, paving the way for the final action.

Now that everything is ready and things have been completed according to Matthew's plan, there is no need to waste any more words.

Matthew smiled slightly, and that smile looked particularly cold under the moonlight.

He slowly raised his hand, and a ray of deep blue light condensed at his fingertips.

The light seemed to have life, jumping and flowing happily on his fingertips, emitting a heart-pounding breath.

"A savior?"

Matthew chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice, as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.

"Do you really think you deserve these four words?"

His voice echoed in the silent night sky, like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the white shadow and the black shadow hard.

The faces of the white shadow and the black shadow turned ugly in an instant, and their bodies began to tremble uncontrollably.

They clearly felt that the energy in their bodies was being rapidly eroded by the deep blue force of destiny, as if an invisible and cold hand was stripping away their strength bit by bit, extracting their life essence.

Every time their strength fades, it's like a scar is drawn deep in their souls.

"You...what on earth do you know!"

Bai Ying's voice trembled more and more violently, and the panic in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

He tried to find a flaw in Matthew's expression, hoping to find a glimmer of hope, but all he saw was Matthew's cold and determined eyes.

Matthew did not answer Bai Ying's question. He just looked at them quietly. The coldness in his eyes became more and more intense, as if a thick layer of frost had formed.

He had long noticed that something was wrong with the two figures.

From the moment they showed up to help repel the monsters, to the time they brought him to this seemingly safe place, Matthew's heart was always full of vigilance.

He secretly observed their every move, not missing any details.

Those seemingly casual eye contacts and subtle gestures did not escape Matthew's eyes.

He is like a patient hunter, waiting for the best opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.

"Those two boys must have died long ago, and the reason you were able to obtain your current body is because you devoured their souls! What you said before should all be true, but you have arbitrarily tampered with the most crucial points."

Matthew spoke these words slowly and calmly.

Before he finished speaking, the four beast kings all held their breath and focused their eyes on Matthew, their faces revealing an expression of expectation that was hard to conceal.

At this moment, their hearts were as excited as a thousand horses galloping, and they were eager to know what truth Matthew had guessed.

What they also want to know is which key link was secretly tampered with by the two mysterious figures.

After all, from the beginning to the end, they were all clueless about the ins and outs of the whole incident, and the thoughts in their minds were like a tangled mess, and they were simply unable to keep up with Matthew's sharp and profound thinking rhythm.

Not only the four beast kings, but even the two figures stopped struggling at this moment, staring at Matthew.

"If I'm not mistaken, you two should be the consciousness born from the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill. By chance, you devoured the souls of the two boys and became what you are now." Matthew didn't let them wait any longer and continued slowly.

When these words were spoken, the two figures' bodies trembled violently as if they had been electrocuted.

Four eyes looked at Matthew in disbelief.

"You...who are you?"

Bai Ying opened his mouth wide and shouted at Matthew in disbelief.

The shadow's reaction was even greater, but he said nothing.

"It...are these two the consciousness transformed from the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill?" After hearing this, the Black Tortoise Beast King looked at Matthew with a confused look on his face and asked.

Although the other three beast kings did not speak, they all looked at Matthew with curious and inquiring eyes, hoping that Matthew could answer their questions.
