The Legend of the Immortal Cauldron

Unconsciously, Matthew has been in the ghost clan headquarters for three years.

Except for some conflicts at the beginning, no one bothered him afterwards.

And he seemed to be invisible, basically staying in the alchemy room.

Occasionally going out to do something.

These three years were just a blink of an eye for Matthew.

Gulidong often reported some things to him, and it was unknown whether it was the instruction of the three clan leaders or his own decision.

Not only did Matthew need to make alchemy to exchange merits, but even Zheng Yu and the old pervert were not idle.

Zheng Yu was assigned the task of sparring, responsible for fighting with the ghost clan to accumulate merits.

Zheng Yu was still a little resistant to this task at first.

However, he gradually adapted to this kind of life later.

Because the ghost clan did not like to fight with others.

Therefore, his task was quite easy, but occasionally someone came to him, which was also considered to be idle.

And because the old pervert also had a good invisibility ability, he often needed to go out with the ghost clan to do things.

Gulidong did not elaborate on what he was doing, and Matthew did not ask much.

These were all secrets within the ghost clan, and he did not ask too much.

As for the ghost baby, there has been no news since he was taken away.

Matthew also asked several times, but Gulidong said that he did not know the situation of the ghost baby.

He only said that the ghost baby was doing something very important.

The three clan leaders had promised to help find the purple spirit jade before, and they did not lie to him.

Some were indeed found, but the number was too small, and it was not enough for Matthew to use.

It was unknown when the next purple spirit wall would be opened.

One day, Matthew came out of the cave to take a breath.

He had paid off all the merits he owed before, and now he could start accumulating merits.

At this time, Gulidong, who was sent out by him to do business, just came back.

"Master Ma, there is good news." Gulidong saw Matthew standing outside the cave, and immediately ran over and said.

"Oh, did anyone take that task?" Matthew asked with interest.

In the past three years, Matthew asked the most about the tasks he issued.

"Yes, someone knows the location of the painting." Gulidong knew what Matthew was thinking about, and nodded immediately.

"What does that person want? Forget it, you should take me to find him first." Matthew said with a hint of joy.

But Gulidong did not react when he heard this. Instead, he scratched his head with a hint of embarrassment and grinned at Matthew.

"Any questions?"

Gulidong's reaction made Matthew feel a little strange, and he also had a bad premonition in his heart.

"The one who took... the task was the chief patriarch..." Gulidong said to Matthew with some embarrassment.

Now, even Matthew was a little surprised.

If someone else took this task, he would not think too much.

But now Gulidong said that the chief patriarch took this task, so Matthew could not think too much.

"Did the chief patriarch say anything else after taking the task?" Matthew asked with a slightly frown.

"I didn't say anything, nor did I ask the adults to find him, nor did I say I would come to you. I just took the task." Gulidong shook his head and said.

Not only was Matthew confused, but he also felt that this matter was not simple.

The patriarch basically would not accept tasks. This was the first time he saw the patriarch accept a task in the hall in all these years.

However, no one could guess what the patriarch was thinking.

"Take me to the patriarch first."

Matthew couldn't guess what the patriarch meant by this. Instead of thinking about it here without any results, it would be better to go there first to see what the situation was.

"Okay."

Gulidong had no opinion on this.

About an hour later, Matthew, led by Gulidong, came to the outside of the cave where the patriarch was.

Standing about ten feet away from the cave, Gulidong whispered to Matthew: "Master Ma, I can only come here. You need to go in person for the rest of the journey. I will wait for you here."

"Okay, then I'll go in first."

Matthew nodded and walked forward.

The patriarch obviously knew that Matthew would come, and even closed the restrictions around the cave in advance.

Even the cave door was open at this moment.

Matthew walked in step by step with steady steps.

When he entered the cave, the door was also closed.

The patriarch's cave was not very big. After passing through a passage, he came to a spacious hall.

At this moment, a person was sitting on a chair in the hall.

This person looked about sixty or seventy years old, wearing a light gray robe, with a gloomy face and an eagle nose.

Looking at his image, he looked even more gloomy.

What surprised Matthew the most was that the patriarch's figure was only a little shorter than a normal human.

After Matthew arrived, the chieftain raised his eyes and looked at him.

"I originally thought you were a great man with three heads and six arms, but it turns out you are just an ordinary-looking guy. Sit down."

The chieftain looked Matthew up and down, said with a fake smile, and pointed to a chair next to him.
