Catching Monsters

Chapter 296 Find out who broke through.

Jiang Yun also sensed that this person's intentions were not good.

He subconsciously turned to look at Ao Yu: "Your brother?"

Ao Yu shook her head, her eyes filled with confusion: "I don't know him."

Alright, Ao Yu has amnesia; he probably doesn't recognize the other person.

Upon hearing this, Ao Qing's murderous intent intensified, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter, saying in a deep voice, "I never expected that you would have lost your memory!"

Ao Qing and Ao Yu are indeed siblings, but the hatred between them is considerable.

Ao Yu is cold and ruthless in the demon race. With the love of her elders, anyone who dares to contradict her among her peers will be severely punished.

Ao Qing suffered many beatings from Ao Yu.

Of course, their hatred went beyond that.

Twenty years ago, a dragon elder perished, leaving behind a dragon pearl.

This dragon ball is a great tonic for the younger generation of dragons. His father originally intended to give it to him so that he could benefit from its nourishing properties.

Without saying a word, Ao Yu went directly to his father, took the Dragon Pearl, and used it to break through to the third-grade Demon King realm.

Enraged, Ao Qing found Ao Yu and, taking advantage of Ao Yu's recent breakthrough, launched a sneak attack, severely injuring him.

He intended to seize the opportunity to kill Ao Yu in one fell swoop.

Unexpectedly, Ao Yu escaped.

In the end, Ao Yu developed a chronic illness...

What followed was a twenty-year-long escape.

For twenty years, Ao Qing hid in the Eastern Demon Kingdom, fearing that Ao Yu would find him.

During this time, he also asked his father to intercede on his behalf, but his father ignored him.

Their demon race practices the law of the jungle; if you are weak and die at the hands of others, you can only blame yourself for not being strong enough.

Finally, after years of forbearance and hiding, he broke through to the third-grade demon king realm.

Over the years, he has been beaten by Ao Yu and forced to hide, his reputation is ruined, and he can no longer hold his head high among his father, elders, brothers and sisters.

Even some minor demons dared to say a few words to him.

Who understands the suffering he has endured over the past twenty years?

He wanted to find Ao Yu and fight him to the death!
He signed a death warrant through his father!

It's a matter of life and death!
This matter has become quite famous in the Eastern Demon Kingdom.

The life-or-death duel between the two young demon kings of the Dragon Clan has attracted the attention of countless people!
As long as he wins!
His reputation was restored!

Many senior demon kings and powerful demons from all walks of life came to watch that decisive battle.

Ao Qing felt that his strength was no less than Ao Yu's.

But as soon as they started fighting!

He then realized that his older sister was incredibly powerful.

He was about to be defeated in just three moves.

Once a life-or-death contract is signed, it generally means a fight to the death.

But Ao Qing gritted his teeth and turned to run.

What reputation or not?
Is it important to have your own life?
In the end, he earned a nickname in the demon kingdom.

Ao Paopao.

When faced with a problem, they turn around and run away.

His heart ached, it ached terribly!

Fortunately, Ao Yu was later sent to the Great Zhou Imperial City, but he disappeared without a trace.

Upon learning this news, Ao Qing immediately went to find his father.

Upon learning of the meteorite, he volunteered to perform a great service, hoping to impress his father.

Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain.

My powerful and aloof older sister has lost her memory, and it seems she probably doesn't have much magic left.

Ao Qing's eyes flashed with intense killing intent.

Jiang Yun also sensed that things were not going well. She took a deep breath and reminded Xu Suwen beside her, "Run."

To Jiang Yun's surprise, this word seemed to have touched Ao Qing's sore spot.

"Run? Anyone who dares to tell me to run away again, I'll fight them to the death!" Ao Qing roared loudly, his eyes bloodshot, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

Jiang Yun was stunned by his appearance.

Then, a powerful demonic aura emanated from Ao Qing as he slowly walked towards the dining room.

Jiang Yun and Xu Suwen exchanged a glance and hurriedly retreated back into the living room.

Jiang Yun's heart sank; Ao Qing's strength had probably reached the third-grade demon king realm.

If a fight were to break out, I would have absolutely no chance of winning.

However, if they fight with all their might, they should have enough time to allow Xu Suwen and Ao Yu to escape.

Perhaps this can buy some time, allowing other experts in the capital to realize that there is a demon causing trouble here.

maybe……

Jiang Yun was lost in thought.

Ao Qing, standing outside the door, frowned and did not approach any further.

He looked at Ao Yu, who was sitting inside with a calm expression.

Why does she seem so fearless?!
Could this be a trap?
Could she be faking amnesia, waiting for me to get closer to the past, and then killing me?

Ao Qing had been hunted down by Ao Yu for over twenty years, and the relentless pursuit had left him with psychological trauma.

The more he looked at the room, the more eerie it seemed.

No, if I don't kill her now, such a good opportunity will lead to endless trouble later.

but.

What if it’s a trap?
You only have one life.

As the saying goes, there are no wrong nicknames, only wrong names.

He took several deep breaths, but still couldn't muster the courage to approach.

Just seeing Ao Yu's face evoked a deep sense of fear within him.

No, I have to kill her.

Ao Qing gritted his teeth, steeled himself, and got closer and closer to the living room.

ten meters.

Five meters. Three meters.

We're almost there.

Ao Yu blinked and couldn't help but say, "Stop dawdling, come in already."

It is indeed a scam!

Ao Yu's words terrified Ao Qing so much that the hairs on his body stood on end.

With a whoosh, he turned and ran, disappearing almost instantly.

Outside the Sanqing Temple, silence soon fell.

Inside the room, Jiang Yun, Xu Suwen, and Ao Yu stared at each other blankly.

Jiang Yun couldn't help but ask, "What's this guy doing here? Is he crazy?"

Xu Suwen turned to look at Ao Yu and said in a low voice, "It seems that he is somewhat afraid of Miss Ao Yu."

Jiang Yun had, of course, told Xu Suwen about Ao Yu's background.

Xu Suwen also knew her identity.

"Why are you afraid of me?" Ao Yu frowned slightly.

Jiang Yun also sensed a huge threat. He took a deep breath and quickly took out 30,000 taels of silver notes from the house.

Xu Su asked, "Where are you going?"

"Exchange for gold."

"I need to seize the time to break through and return to the Celestial Master realm!"

This money can't be saved for bidding on meteorites.

Meteorites are certainly nice, but nothing is more important than one's own life.

……

Among the inns.

"Lord Ao Qing, how are you? Have you found Lord Ao Yu?" The old man with the fox-like face looked at Ao Qing, who was rushing back from outside, with a hint of curiosity on his face.

"Senior Hu, no, my sister is just pretending to be stupid. She's doing it on purpose."

"on purpose."

After returning to her room, Ao Qing was so frightened that she sat on the bed, sweat pouring down her forehead. Leaning against the door, she gasped for breath: "She wanted to kill me, definitely. She deliberately lured me here to kill me."

"I must leave immediately and return to the Demon Kingdom."

Hearing Ao Qing's words, the old man with the fox-like face guessed that Lord Ao Qing had probably encountered Lord Ao Yu and was terrified.

This old man was named Hu Zhifeng, and he was considered a rare wise man among the demon race.

The Dragon King was worried about me, so he sent me along.

Seeing Ao Qing so frightened, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly. The Demon Emperor was unparalleled in wisdom and courage, and had quite a few demon children under his command.

I've never seen such a coward.

Despite his thoughts, Hu Zhifeng wore a smile and advised, "Lord Ao Qing, don't panic. If Lord Ao Yu really wanted to kill you, would he have kept you alive until now?"

Tell me in detail, and I'll analyze it for you.

Ao Qing gradually recovered from his fear and then recounted what he had seen and heard.

After listening, Hu Zhifeng narrowed his eyes. It seemed that Lord Ao Yu had indeed lost his memory.

However, Lord Ao Qing, who had been hunted for twenty years, became nervous and panicked upon seeing Lord Ao Yu.

After thinking it through, Hu Zhifeng said with a smile, "In that case, Lord Ao Qing need not look for her anymore. Our mission is to retrieve the meteorite. As long as we bring the meteorite back, the Demon Emperor will definitely look at you with new respect."

Hu Zhifeng is a smart man.

No matter how much these two siblings fight each other, it's their own family matter.

I can't help either side.

This point needs to be made clear.

However, Hu Zhifeng breathed a sigh of relief after learning that Ao Yu was out of danger.

Although their main purpose for this trip was to obtain the meteorite, the Demon Emperor was also quite concerned about Lord Ao Yu's safety.

After calming down for a long time, Ao Qing also came to understand this principle.

Am I really just too timid?
Too cautious?

Could it be that my older sister has really lost her memory?

Thinking of this, his courage, which had been shattered by fear, grew stronger again.

He took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a hint of murderous intent: "No, I have to go to the Sanqing Temple again!"

……

Inside the Sanqing Temple, Jiang Yun sat in the Sanqing Hall with the doors tightly closed.

Then they began to cast the Five Elements Formation, and powerful, rich spiritual energy filled the entire Sanqing Temple.

Of course, the most concentrated concentration was still within the Five Elements Formation where Jiang Yun was located.

Jiang Yun sat cross-legged on the futon, his body continuously absorbing spiritual energy.

With continuous breathing exercises, the meridians in his body expanded, reaching a certain threshold.

The spiritual energy continuously washed over Jiang Yun's body.

Sweat also trickled down Jiang Yun's forehead.

The gap between the fourth-grade True Person Realm and the third-grade Celestial Master Realm is enormous.

In his previous life, Jiang Yun experienced a terrifying inner demon when he reached the Celestial Master realm.

That inner demon almost dragged him into an endless abyss.

Fortunately, in this life, I won't have to go through inner demons again.

The spiritual energy within his body had reached its limit, and Jiang Yun was covered in sweat.

He kept taking deep breaths.

Finally, that threshold was broken.

……

In the imperial study, Feng Yu, who was standing beside Xiao Yuzheng and helping to organize the memorials, paused slightly. His gaze turned towards the direction of the Sanqing Temple, and his eyes showed a hint of surprise.

Xiao Yuzheng turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"In our capital, another person has reached the third rank."

"Moreover, the direction came from the Sanqing Temple. Could it be that Jiang Yun..." An incredulous look appeared on Feng Yu's face, and his pupils shrank slightly.

Xiao Yuzheng frowned and said in a deep voice, "Go and find out who broke through."
