The Demon World was still divided into three factions. The King of Yan City had been the Demon Lord for thousands of years. It was not the first time Run Yu had met him.

Nine hundred years ago, there were many disputes between the two realms on the banks of the River of Forgetfulness. At that time, Prince Yancheng's side was dominant, and Prince Gucheng's power was not yet established. King Biancheng looked on with folded arms. Run Yu proposed to the Taiwei to support King Biancheng to contain the Demon Lord. He also allowed Prince Gucheng to sit on the throne, causing the Demon Lord to be afraid. Thus, the Demon Realm gradually became a triangular balance.

That Prince Yancheng was ambitious, but he did not have the strength to match it. It was difficult for him to unify the Demon Realm, and in the end, he could only look at the throne of the Six Realms and sigh.

Thus, the Six Realms had a rare period of peace.

In his previous life, when Qiongqi appeared, it was the Taiwei behind the scenes who secretly communicated with Prince Gucheng, allowing Qiongqi to escape from the Imperial Soul Cauldron.

In this life, when Qiongqi appeared again, this Prince Gucheng was most likely the key.

Run Yu had probed the Taiwei several times, but did not find any clues, so he could only start from the Demon Realm. This was also the reason why he insisted on coming in person.

That Prince Yancheng had always been at odds with the Celestial realm, and this time, he was not enthusiastic about capturing Qiongqi. He put on an attitude as if this matter had nothing to do with the Demon Realm. And that Prince Gucheng was even more eager to watch a good show. He only hoped that this dispute would become as big as possible so that he could profit from it.

Run Yu knew their thoughts like the back of his hand.

"The Demon Lord used the excuse that he cherished treasures and did not want to violate the precedent, so he was unwilling to lend the Demon Pestle. However, he did not know that Qiongqi had always been guarding the Demon Realm. No matter how he escaped, the Demon Realm could not escape the blame. If they could not make up for their mistakes, I'm afraid that people's hearts would be disloyal. This is the first reason. Now that Qiongqi hid in the Demon Realm after causing a ruckus at the Southern Heavenly Gate, the Demon Realm could not shirk its responsibility to capture Qiongqi. Now that the Demon Lord refused, if this news spread, he would become the public enemy of the Six Realms. This is the second reason. If Qiongqi died, the Demon Realm would be in the Demon Realm. If the Demon Realm would become a public enemy....

Because of these three points, I really don't understand why the Duke of Yan City, as a Demon Lord, would be so stingy with the Fallen Demon Pestle?

Could it be that Prince Yancheng thought that he could turn the Six Realms upside down by relying on Qiongqi's power alone?

Borrowing the Demon Pestle was originally out of consideration for the Demon Realm. If the Demon Lord did not care about the millions of lives in the Demon Realm, according to the Promise of the River of Forgetfulness, the two of us would not be able to forcefully interfere. However, I'm afraid that the Demon Lord would have to think about whether he could still hold on to his position. "

After hearing Run Yu's words, Prince Yancheng did not dare to obstruct the sealing of Qiongqi out of personal anger. He ordered Liuying to bring the Demon Pestle and capture Qiongqi together with the two of them.

With the three of them working together, capturing Qiongqi should have been a smooth task. However, they did not expect that during the sealing process, a person would suddenly appear out of thin air and obstruct the three of them.

The person had a silver mask and black clothes. His appearance could not be distinguished, but his cultivation level was actually quite high.

His moves were tightly entangled with Xufeng, but he did not directly clash with him, so that he could not free up his hands to help the two of them seal.

That Qiongqi also knew that today was a life and death battle, so he turned into his original form and stared at Run Yu without letting go.

Run Yu had not recovered from his injuries for long, but he was in danger again and again. Fortunately, Liuying saved him several times.

As a result, there was really no one who could free up their hands to use the Demon Pestle to eliminate the poison.

In a stalemate, the black-clothed man suddenly shot an arrow at Run Yu while he was fighting with Xufeng.

Xufeng did not recognize the origin of this arrow, but he subconsciously ordered Run Yu to be careful.

Liuying, however, turned pale when she saw the arrow.

"Spirit Extinguishing Arrow!"

Ever since the black-clothed man appeared, Run Yu had been paying attention to his movements.

In his previous life, he had met the Strange Kite twice in the mortal world, so he naturally recognized his identity at a glance.

Now that the Spirit Extinguishing Arrow was shot, he was even more certain.

In his previous life, the Strange Kite was controlled by Thayao, but he did not know if it was the same in this life.

Did he appear here because he followed them here, or did he already know where Qiongqi was hiding?

If he followed them here, who ordered him to do so? Prince Gucheng or Thayao?

If he already knew, could it be related to the person who secretly released Qiongqi?

This Strange Kite had been entangled with Xufeng, but he had never seen him kill anyone. Could it be that in this life, he was still following Thayao's orders?

Or was it not that he was entangling Xufeng, but that Xufeng was the one who was entangled with him?

Then, did Xufeng know about Thayao's actions at this time?

Run Yu's mind was in a mess for a moment.

He suddenly remembered that Xufeng had never mentioned anything before coming to the Celestial realm. If he was involved, he would just say that he did not remember clearly.

Run Yu thought that his childhood was very miserable, so he did not ask.

However, that Floating Dream Pill was owned by the bird race, so Shuli had never made him take it. Would Father Emperor make him take it?

If he had never taken it, why would he not remember clearly?

Could it be that there was a hidden story behind everything?

Thinking of this, Run Yu felt a chill all over his body.

Many doubts lingered in his heart, but he had no time to ask in detail in front of the enemy. Unexpectedly, he had repeatedly failed, and it was all thanks to Liuying's help. Run Yu could not help but feel ashamed.

Now that the Spirit Extinguishing Arrow had appeared, he was naturally on guard.

The Spirit Extinguishing Arrow was difficult to catch off guard, so it was easily neutralized by Run Yu.

Liuying took the opportunity to use her long whip to roll the Spirit Extinguishing Arrow into her hand. Without hesitation, she immediately confirmed that this person was her former lover. She immediately abandoned Qiongqi and rushed straight to the black-clothed man.

With this sudden turn of events, Xufeng escaped from Strange Kite and rushed to help Run Yu fight Qiongqi. However, that Strange Kite was entangled by Liuying and was unable to do anything else.

Xufeng took Scarlet Cloud Sword from Run Yu's hand and used the Fire Spirit to lay an inescapable net. Together with Run Yu, he trapped Qiongqi.

Seeing that the opportunity was fleeting, Liuying forced Strange Kite to retreat. She raised the Fallen Magic Pestle and chanted an incantation.

Strange Kite was unwilling to hurt her and could only watch as Qiongqi was sealed again.

Since the situation was over, he no longer lingered in the battle and left.

After returning the Fallen Magic Pestle, Run Yu and Xufeng returned to the inn with the Soul Manipulation Cauldron. They did not immediately return to the Heavenly Court to report.

Although Xufeng did not understand his brother's intentions, he never questioned Run Yu's decision and always followed his orders.

However, Run Yu seemed to have a lot on his mind. He said that he wanted to drink with him, so he drank a few cups without saying a word.

Xufeng asked him in confusion, "Brother, do you have something to discuss with me?"

Run Yu paused and said, "I remember that four thousand years ago, father brought you back to the Celestial realm, but I have never heard you mention anything before that.

Do you still remember where you used to live? "

Xufeng was stunned and immediately lowered his eyebrows. After a while, he said, "I only remember that there were snakes, insects, rats, and ants all around, but I don't know what realm it was."

"Then … do you have any impression of the person who gave birth to you?"

Xufeng bit his lips slightly and paused for a while before saying, "I vaguely remember that she was very beautiful. She always wore a golden dress and was dazzling. Other than that, I don't remember anything else."

Seeing Xufeng's gloomy expression, Run Yu did not know if he should continue asking.

If Xufeng did not hide anything, then wouldn't his actions make him bitterly disappointed?

For thousands of years, he had always thought that the brotherhood between brothers was unbreakable. Could it be that the appearance of a mere Strange Kite caused a rift between the two of them?

Run Yu shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly. He sighed secretly, "I just suddenly remembered that you never mentioned the past. I was curious and asked a few more questions. It reminded you of something sad."

"There is nothing to be sad about. Only after leaving that place could I meet my elder brother. In this life, Xufeng has no regrets."

Ever since that day he broke Xufeng's wet dream, Xufeng seemed to have no more scruples. No matter how he reprimanded him, he had the ability to lead everything to that incestuous feeling. Run Yu was often angry, but there was nothing he could do. Over time, he was able to let it go and become accustomed to it.

That night, Run Yu was extremely tired. After drinking a few cups of spring wine, he fell into a deep sleep not long after.

And on the banks of the River of Forgetfulness, Xufeng met with a person — — the person he met with was wearing a silver mask and black clothes. It was Strange Kite.

"Did Mother have any words for you to bring to me?"

"Her Highness said that if Young Master still remembers the grievances she suffered, Young Master would know what to do without her saying anything. But if Young Master doesn't remember, then even if she says a thousand words, Young Master will still be the same."

"She really knows me well."

"Master is very dissatisfied with Young Master's sealing of Qiongqi today. Does Young Master have any words to explain?"

"You have followed Mother for so long, when have you ever seen her listen to anyone's explanation?"

"This … …"

"Help me tell her that she is secretly colluding with Prince Gucheng. I'm afraid she is asking a tiger for its skin. Be careful of being bitten by him."

"Yes."

"And — —"

"Young Master, please speak."

"You also tell her that I will not forget her grievances. I also do not dare to forget them.

For four hundred years, every day she used the blood of her heart to make a heart-piercing oath. Even in her dreams, Xufeng did not dare to extravagantly hope that one day she would be free.

But you tell her that she can use the Spirit Extinguishing Arrow on anyone but her elder brother. "

"Everything Master has done is for Young Master to ascend to the position of Celestial Ruler. If Run Yu does not die, Young Master will not have a chance — —"

"It is not that there is no other way to ascend to the position of Celestial Ruler. But if she does not listen to my advice, she does not need to recognize me as her son. She will lose me forever — — If Elder Brother dies, Xufeng will not live alone."

"… … This subordinate understands."

Strange Kite turned invisible and retreated, leaving Xufeng standing alone on the banks of the River of Forgetfulness. His eyes were filled with the water of the River of Forgetfulness, and his eyes were filled with heartbroken tears.

In the end, Elder Brother is suspicious of me. But even if you hate me and resent me, I will not let go.

Even if it is for you, I will seize the position of Celestial Ruler and become the master of the Six Realms.

When that time comes, no one will dare to interfere with the two of us. You will also no longer have to worry about brotherly relations.

He was so focused on Run Yu that he did not notice that the Nightmare Beast that had gone out to hunt for food had seen everything.
