The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2321 Goodbye Li Jingshan

Just as Matthew was about to step into the valley, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the depths of the valley.

Immediately afterwards, a dozen monks rushed out of the valley and quickly surrounded Matthew.

These monks looked nervous and stared at Matthew vigilantly, obviously they had already noticed his presence.

Their movements were in unison, and it was obvious that they were disciples of the sect who had undergone rigorous training.

Matthew looked calmly at the unfamiliar faces.

He had never seen these people before, but the clothes they wore surprised him a little.

The clothing was embroidered with a pattern of a towering mountain, which was the symbol of Jingmen.

Matthew's heart moved slightly. He didn't expect that the familiar breath came from Jingmen.

He remembered that Jingmen was not here back then. It seemed that Jingmen must have experienced considerable changes over the years.

"Who are you, sir, and why do you suddenly appear here?"

A leading monk plucked up his courage, stepped forward and asked.

Although his tone was firm, his eyes could not hide the nervousness.

Obviously, he couldn't see through Matthew's ability, and he was already feeling wary of him.

Matthew did not answer immediately. Instead, he slowly exhaled a breath and looked deeply into the depths of the valley.

After a moment, he said calmly: "Is Li Jingshan still here?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the dozen or so monks instantly became solemn, and some of them even quietly took out their magic weapons and were ready for battle.

Li Jingshan is the leader of Jingmen and also the soul of Jingmen.

Matthew called him by his name, obviously he has a close relationship with Li Jingshan.

However, these monks had never seen Matthew before, and they couldn't help but feel wary and hostile.

Matthew understood what was going on when he saw these people looking nervous.

He was too lazy to waste words with them, and with a flash of his body, he disappeared from the spot.

The dozen or so monks watched Matthew disappear from their sight, but could not catch even a trace of him. They suddenly widened their eyes and looked at each other, at a loss as to what to do.

"This...what kind of method is this?" a monk muttered to himself, his face full of shock.

"Go back quickly! He said he would go in and take a look, so he must have gone in!"

Another monk was the first to react. His face changed drastically and he shouted hurriedly, "The Sect Master is at a critical moment of healing and must not be disturbed! Even if it costs his life, we must stop this man!"

When the others heard this, their faces turned pale and they turned around and ran towards the depths of the valley.

Their faces were filled with tension and anxiety, and it was obvious that they attached great importance to Li Jingshan's safety.

At the same time, Matthew's figure had appeared in the depths of the valley.

His escape speed was so fast that the monks had no time to stop him.

Deep in the valley, an ancient stone temple stood on the mountainside. A faint spiritual barrier shrouded the stone temple, which was obviously to protect Li Jingshan who was in seclusion.

Matthew stood in front of the stone temple, looking calmly at the spiritual barrier.

He was not in a hurry to break through the barrier, but waited quietly.

A moment later, the dozen monks came over breathlessly, and when they saw Matthew standing in front of the stone hall, their faces suddenly changed.

"Who are you? Why did you trespass into the forbidden area of ​​Jingmen?" the leading monk shouted sternly, with a hint of trembling in his tone.

Matthew glanced at him calmly, and said calmly: "My last name is Ma, and I have an old relationship with Li Jingshan. I came here today just to see if he is okay."

"Last name?"

The monk frowned when he heard this, obviously feeling unfamiliar with the name.

However, another elderly monk behind him suddenly changed his expression and exclaimed: "You are the senior Ma who founded Jingmen back then!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other monks were suddenly in an uproar, and they all showed expressions of disbelief.

Although they had never met Matthew, the name of the founder of Jingmen was well known to them.

But they never expected that this legendary senior would suddenly appear here.

Matthew ignored their reactions and waved his hand, and the spiritual barrier was easily torn apart like thin paper.

He stepped into the stone hall. The dozen or so monks wanted to stop him, but they found that they could not move at all, as if they were imprisoned in place by an invisible force.

Inside the stone hall, Li Jingshan was sitting cross-legged on a stone platform, with spiritual energy lingering around him. His face was pale, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he looked obviously seriously injured.

Matthew stood in front of the stone platform, staring at Li Jingshan quietly.

After a moment, he raised his hand and waved it, and a soft golden light sank into Li Jingshan's body.

Li Jingshan's body trembled slightly, then his face gradually returned to its rosy color, and the aura around him became stable.

"Thank you for your help, senior..."

Li Jingshan slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of fatigue and gratitude in his eyes.

When he saw Matthew standing in front of him, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately showed excitement, "Daoyou Ma! It's really you!"

Matthew smiled faintly and said calmly: "I haven't seen you for many years, but you have made great progress."

Li Jingshan hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully. Just as he was about to speak, he found that he could not see through Matthew's cultivation at all.

After a brief pause, Li Jingshan took a deep breath and said, "If it weren't for the guidance of the seniors, Jingmen wouldn't have achieved what it has today. It's just that I'm dull and let Jingmen fall to this point. I really don't live up to the expectations of the seniors."

There was also a hint of tentativeness in his words. He didn't know whether Matthew had reached the Spirit Transformation Stage or not. He could only change his address and see Matthew's reaction.

"Your injuries haven't fully recovered yet. Take this pill and tell me slowly after everything is healed."

After saying this, Matthew took out a pill and threw it at Li Jingshan.

Upon seeing this, Li Jingshan took the pill without hesitation and swallowed it in one gulp. There was not even a trace of hesitation in the whole action.

It would take some time for Li Jingshan to recover from his injuries, but Matthew didn't lack that time, so he just stood there and waited silently.

After several hours, Li Jingshan finally finished refining the elixir.

"Thank you for the elixir, senior. My internal injuries have almost recovered." After Li Jingshan stood up, he bowed respectfully to Matthew.

"You must have experienced a lot in these years. I just came out of seclusion and met you. Tell me about Jingmen first."

As Matthew spoke, he took out two chairs from his storage bag, sat down, and used his magic power to send another chair to Li Jingshan.

After hearing this, Li Jingshan took a deep breath and sat down on the chair obediently.

When he sat down, the joy on Li Jingshan's face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by a look of helplessness.

"I have other things to do, so just talk about the important things."

Seeing that Li Jingshan was a little hesitant, Matthew thought that the other party might think that he was here to call him to task, so he spoke to comfort him.
