The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2027: Thrilling Pass

Just when the transformed demon seemed to want to continue chattering on, a trace of obvious impatience suddenly flashed across Matthew's face.

He frowned slightly and said in a slightly stiff tone: "I have something very important to deal with right now. If there is nothing else to discuss, then I will go first. After all, if I delay here and cause any trouble, I will be the one who will be held responsible and punished."

However, after hearing this, the demon creature did not immediately let Matthew go.

Its eyes, which were originally narrowed, suddenly opened, two cold rays of light shot out from them, and at the same time, its eyebrows raised upwards, and a sneer appeared at the corners of its mouth as it responded: "Humph! You are afraid of being punished, but don't you fear that this demon will punish you at all?"

When Matthew heard this, his chest rose and fell slightly, as if he was suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart. Then he exhaled lightly and said slowly, "If that's the case, then I won't leave. Afterwards, I will report everything that happened here to the top leader in detail."

As soon as he finished speaking, Matthew sat down cross-legged on the spot without any warning, with his eyes closed, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

At first, the monster that had transformed into a demon remained indifferent to what Matthew said.

Its ferocious face had no expression, as if it didn't care about anything Matthew said.

However, when Matthew inadvertently mentioned the word "Shangfeng", the situation suddenly took a subtle turn.

I saw that the originally indifferent face of the transformed demon suddenly showed a barely perceptible fluctuation in expression.

Although the change was extremely subtle, it did not escape Matthew's keen observation.

Not just anyone is qualified to mention the term "Shangfeng".

In the demon system, only members in the core circle are aware of this special title.

Ordinary demon tribe members may have never even heard of such confidential terms.

The reason why Matthew dared to boldly throw out the word "upper peak" was actually after careful consideration.

He hoped to use this title to intimidate the demon in front of him, making it feel cautious and fearful.

After all, he had spent a lot of effort to extract this word from the monsters he had captured and tortured before.

Unfortunately, although Matthew successfully obtained the information about the "superior", the captured monsters knew very little about it.

They offer no clues as to what is hidden in this place.

However, relying on his many years of experience in dealing with demons and the brief and tense exchange just now, Matthew already had a rough preliminary judgment in his mind.

The demon creature standing in front of him probably doesn't have a very prominent position within the demon clan.

As for what specific position he will hold, based on the information currently available, it is indeed impossible to accurately guess.

"Forget it, forget it! Go and do your thing! Don't waste time here!"

Not long after, the divine demon became a little restless. It waved its hands impatiently and shouted loudly.

His tone was full of urging.

At this time, Matthew's face was still calm and he was not in a hurry.

However, this made the demon creature feel even more uneasy.

It thought to itself that if Matthew really had some important matter to deal with, and it blocked his way and caused him to delay, once it was investigated by the higher-ups, it would probably not be able to escape severe punishment.

In fact, the reason why this transformed demon stopped Matthew at first was not just because he was curious about Matthew's unfamiliar face.

More importantly, it was because it had been guarding here alone for some time, and there was no one around to talk to it.

It was not easy to meet a living person like Matthew today, so it naturally wanted to seize the opportunity to chat with him to relieve its boredom.

However, Matthew in front of it at this moment did not look like a good person at all. It knew very well that it could not continue to pester him endlessly like this no matter what.

When hearing the words of the transformed demon, Matthew did not react or take action as quickly as an ordinary person. Instead, he just stared at the transformed demon in front of him with interest.

Although he had dealt with this divine monster many times, it still gave him an indescribable weird feeling.

Even Matthew himself couldn't tell exactly where this feeling came from.

Just like this, a long while passed, until the transformed demon creature urged him anxiously again, and Matthew finally stood up slowly and unhurriedly.

He just moved his body slightly, turned around and galloped away into the distance.

After flying forward for a distance, Matthew suddenly stopped in the air and then slowly turned around.

Looking at the incarnation monster that could still be seen in the distance, he raised his voice and shouted at the incarnation monster: "Don't you want to come over and see what I'm going to do next?"

However, he received only one cold word in response.

"roll!"

There was obvious anger in the voice.

However, after hearing this answer, Matthew not only did not show any sign of anger, but instead felt a little relaxed in his heart.

In fact, the reason why he said that just now was completely intentional.

The purpose is very simple, which is to test the true condition of this divine monster at the moment.

Judging from the current situation, the other party obviously has no intention of following him for the time being.

Matthew thought to himself that perhaps this divine monster had received some special mission or instructions and was forced to stay where it was.

As for what kind of specific mission it was, he had no idea.

In any case, for Matthew, as long as this divine monster no longer bothers him, it will not bring any adverse effects to his subsequent actions.

After this incident, Matthew must be extra cautious in his future actions.

Continuing to fly forward, Matthew found himself in this huge black curtain. From time to time, he could catch a glimpse of huge black spheres floating quietly in the air like ghosts.

These balls looked extremely strange, and were somewhat similar to the black balls that had trapped them before.

However, there were some patterns on the surface of these black balls that he could not understand.

It looked very strange, and Matthew didn't dare to approach it rashly, for fear that there might be some demonic creature inside the black ball.

He just got rid of one and didn't want to face that kind of monster again.
