Chapter 798: When You See This Message… (Two-in-one)

The layers of dense tree canopies blocked the moonlight, leaving the forest pitch black.

Before his Yu Beast Master could speak, Guangchi Mu smiled proactively, revealing his faintly glowing teeth, illuminating the surroundings and dispelling the darkness.

Qiao Sang felt the surrounding silence and couldn’t help but sigh.

“What’s wrong?” Aogefu asked.

She wondered how Teacher Pilit was doing. She felt like she hadn’t helped at all on this trip to find Aodinihi… Qiao Sang shook her head and said,

“Nothing, I just don’t know what the situation is like over there.”

Aogefu comforted her, “Don’t worry, it’s just a Solid Armor Emperor. My teacher is an A-grade Beastmaster; he can handle it.”

An A-grade Beastmaster, as expected, is stronger than Teacher Pilit… Qiao Sang’s heart tightened, but then she thought of something, let out a breath, and relaxed.

Currently, their objectives with these two people don’t conflict.

Moreover, judging by the commotion just now, Aodinihi seemed to have disappeared. Now that there isn’t even a shadow of Aodinihi, there’s no need to treat others as imaginary enemies.

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang found the person in front of her much more agreeable and asked, “What should we do next? Wait here, or go look for Aodinihi?”

Aogefu was about to answer when the Fa Miao E beside him suddenly shrieked:

“Fa Fa!”

Qiao Sang was startled and turned her head to ask worriedly, “What’s wrong?”

Fa Miao E was Teacher Pilit’s Pet. It hadn’t been injured or done anything just now, yet it suddenly shrieked for no reason. Could something have happened to Teacher Pilit?

“Fa Fa…”

Fa Miao E stared at the human its Yu Beast Master had told it to protect, on the verge of tears.

[It lost Aodinihi!]

It really wanted to answer that way, but remembering that this matter was a secret and there was a human nearby who needed to be kept in the dark, it could only shake its head, indicating that nothing was wrong.

“Ya Ya.”

Yabao translated synchronously.

Something definitely happened… Qiao Sang’s expression was grave, tinged with worry.

If something happened to Teacher Pilit, she wouldn’t be able to help with her current strength. Fa Miao E probably knew she would be useless if she went, which is why it said nothing was wrong to keep her from worrying.

“Do you want to go help Teacher Pilit?” Qiao Sang asked.

“Fa Fa.”

Fa Miao E didn’t understand why the human in front of it suddenly suggested this. It shook its head, indicating no need. Its Yu Beast Master would summon it back if needed.

“Ya Ya.” Yabao dutifully translated.

That’s true… Qiao Sang felt that made sense, and her worried heart relaxed a little.

“Is something wrong?” Aogefu, who had witnessed their conversation from the side, asked.

“Nothing,” Qiao Sang said.

“Then why did it suddenly cry out just now?” Aogefu seemed curious.

“It should be some situation with Teacher, but it looks like it can be resolved,” Qiao Sang explained.

Aogefu glanced at Fa Miao E and frowned, “Why don’t we still let this Fa Miao E go help? A single Solid Armor Emperor couldn’t make Fa Miao E sense its Yu Beast Master was in danger.”

He paused, his eyes slightly brightened, and his tone carried a hint of surprise: “Could it be that they encountered Aodinihi again over there!”

“Fa Fa…”

Fa Miao E’s expression instantly froze.

Did it forget Aodinihi there?!

“Why don’t you still let Fa Miao E go help?” Aogefu immediately suggested.

“Fa Fa…”

Fa Miao E looked at the human its Yu Beast Master had told it to protect, waiting for her answer.

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, “No need. Your teacher is still over there. From the situation just now, there are three Emperor-level Pets there. Aodinihi shouldn’t be an opponent.”

After speaking, she looked at Aogefu: “Since Aodinihi is there, shouldn’t we go back now?”

Aogefu was silent for a moment, then casually said, “No need. We can’t help much if we go now. We’ll go back after a while. Besides, my guess about Aodinihi is just that—a guess. It might not be there. Let’s look around ourselves first.”

Qiao Sang had no objection.

The two began to shuttle through the dense forest.

After walking for about ten minutes, Qiao Sang hesitated, “This seems to be the way out?”

Aogefu replied, “I noticed that too, but it’s okay. Anyway, we’re searching without a direction right now. If we can’t find it, we can just use Space Movement to return to them.”

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and felt it made sense.

The two continued forward.

Time quietly passed.

The view ahead gradually opened up, and the vegetation became sparse.

The night sky was clear, with only the outermost ring of the bright moon hanging in the sky.

Not far away was a ruin, and nearby was overgrown with weeds.

All was silent. Although it was the same place, without the singing and dancing of the Pets, there was an indescribable sense of terror.

“We’re out,” Qiao Sang said, looking at the familiar scene before her.

Aogefu continued walking forward and suddenly asked, “Do you want to contract Aodinihi?”

Why suddenly ask this… Qiao Sang recalled his previous words and replied, “I don’t have any extra contract pages.”

“That’s true. A genius like you shouldn’t risk brain damage by canceling a contract.” Aogefu stopped and turned to say.

Half of his face was in shadow, half in moonlight, making him look somewhat terrifying.

“Then will your teacher want to contract it?” Aogefu asked.

Qiao Sang was puzzled: “Why suddenly ask this?”

“I’m thinking, if we both want to contract Aodinihi, then who should it belong to?” Aogefu said indifferently.

Qiao Sang frowned slightly: “Don’t you think you’re overthinking this a bit too much? We haven’t even found Aodinihi yet.”

Aogefu calmly observed the expression of the black-haired girl in front of him. Seeing that she didn’t seem to be faking it, he suddenly turned to look at Xiao Xunbao beside him: “If something enters Ghost Ring King’s ring, will it notice?”

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao heard this, and its already rigid body became even more rigid.

Brother, your topic jumped too fast… Qiao Sang complained inwardly, then realized something, and her heart rate inevitably quickened.

First, he inexplicably asked if they wanted to contract Aodinihi, then he asked about Xiao Xunbao’s ring…

Why would he suddenly ask these two questions?

Could it be that he saw something enter Xiao Xunbao’s ring?

Could this thing be Aodinihi…

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but glance in the direction of Xiao Xunbao.

Xiao Xunbao blinked.

Qiao Sang: “!!!”

Holy crap! Something really entered Xiao Xunbao’s ring!

She was too familiar with Xiao Xunbao!

Even if Xiao Xunbao didn’t speak, she could analyze what it wanted to express from its facial expressions.

For a moment, Qiao Sang’s brain raced.

Something had entered Xiao Xunbao’s ring. Given Xiao Xunbao’s usual behavior, it should have pulled out the creature that burrowed in immediately and then discarded it in disgust.

But it didn’t make any move now.

Combined with his recent questions and Xiao Xunbao’s expression, she could almost conclude with over 90% certainty that Aodinihi had entered the ring!

Aogefu looked at Qiao Sang’s expression and smiled:

“It seems you should be clear now that Aodinihi has entered Ghost Ring King’s ring.”

Calm down, Fa Miao E is still nearby. The other party is only a B-level Beast Tamer and shouldn’t be an opponent. He seems to have seen Aodinihi burrow into Xiao Xunbao’s ring with his own eyes, but he didn’t say it on the spot. Instead, he had Guangchi Mu use Space Movement to leave, specifically taking himself away from that A-grade Beastmaster named Lu Xiu Ma Er. He must have another intention… He wouldn’t be trying to contract Aodinihi himself, would he… Qiao Sang quickly analyzed the other party’s intention, then instinctively analyzed why Aodinihi would burrow into Xiao Xunbao’s ring.

During the previous siege, Aodinihi only disappeared after Teacher Pilit’s Newdi Kaka joined the battle.

At that time, Fa Miao E was nearby. As an Emperor-level Pet, it should have sensed the presence of a strange Pet’s aura immediately.

But it didn’t react at all at that time.

Now that she thought about it, while Solid Armor Emperor was powerful as an Emperor-level Pet, Teacher Pilit plus that A-grade Beastmaster named Lu Xiu Ma Er had collectively summoned four Emperor-level Pets outside.

When fighting Aodinihi, he didn’t think of telling her to leave, but when a Solid Armor Emperor, whose strength might even be inferior to Aodinihi’s, appeared, he told her to go.

This was not normal.

But if he knew Aodinihi was with her, then it made sense.

Teacher Pilit didn’t want Aodinihi to fall into the other party’s hands…

As for why Aodinihi would burrow into Xiao Xunbao’s ring… Qiao Sang thought while showing a “What are you talking about?” expression:

“Aodinihi burrowed into Ghost Ring King’s ring? Are you kidding me? My Ghost Ring King’s reception characteristic level is C, it can’t even let living things in.”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao, with its Yu Beast Master helping it, instantly became an acting prodigy, nodding repeatedly to confirm it was true.

Aogefu spoke to himself:

“You know, I have a Wenlujia. It makes my sense of smell sensitive, allowing me to distinguish the aura of Pets within a hundred-meter radius. When Aodinihi appeared next to you, I actually smelled it.”

He gazed over, his eyes deepening:

“We can cooperate. You don’t need to guard against me. You were after Aodinihi from the start, otherwise, how could Ghost Ring King have been so coincidentally near Aodinihi.”

“However, your purpose in finding Aodinihi should only be to have it help predict the next evolution location of Pets, after all, your contract pages are already full, and your teacher is from Blue Star, so he should be aware of the troubles of contracting Illusion Beasts from other planets. Oh, you want to ask me why I know he’s from Blue Star…”

No, I didn’t mean to ask… Qiao Sang thought.

Aogefu continued:

“It’s obvious. Both of his Emperor-level Pets are Blue Star Pets. A Royal Union Dun teacher couldn’t possibly cultivate two Pets from other planets to Emperor level consecutively.”

“I’ve seen your interview. You’re a student of the Imperial Beast Academy, just an exchange student at Royal Union Dun.”

“Presumably, with your talent, it’s not impossible for the Imperial Beast Academy to specifically send a teacher over.”

His analysis is quite sharp… Qiao Sang felt a little admiration amidst her vigilance.

Aogefu babbled on for a long time, finally stating his purpose: “I have a way to make Aodinihi fall into a deep sleep the moment it comes out of the ring.”

“Once I contract it, I will have it help you predict the next evolution location of Pets.”

This guy really wants to contract Aodinihi himself… Qiao Sang vehemently denied: “I already said Ghost Ring King’s ring cannot let living things in.”

“Sigh…” The sigh was particularly clear in the silent environment. After a moment of helplessness, Aogefu’s eyes gradually hardened: “I originally thought we could cooperate well.”

Ice Aipalu’s Healing Light was indeed a divine skill, but he wasn’t terminally ill, and Qiao Sang was from Blue Star, so she would eventually return no matter how monstrous she was. Compared to that, the temptation of contracting Aodinihi was naturally greater.

“Move that moth,” he said.

As soon as he spoke, Guangchi Mu instantly teleported behind Fa Miao E, its eyes glowing blue, and disappeared from the spot with it.

Space Movement, to transfer a target to a farther location, the Pet performing the skill must also transfer with it… He thinks that as long as Fa Miao E is gone, he can control me? Qiao Sang stood still, watching his actions, her expression slightly changed.

It doesn’t matter if he can’t befriend Qiao Sang, as long as he contracts Aodinihi… Aogefu’s eyes flickered with twisted excitement as he began to form hand seals.

Just then, he heard the other party’s voice: “Move him.”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Immediately after, came Ghost Ring King’s voice.

Then, in the next second, his vision went black.

When his vision returned to light, the scene before him had already changed dramatically.

Aogefu: “!!!”

…

“Quick, move faster,” Qiao Sang said, holding her phone and looking at the navigation, her expression serious.

Xiao Xunbao continuously used Space Movement, heading towards the airport.

Twenty minutes later.

On a rooftop, Qiao Sang held her phone.

[Teacher Pilit, I’m sorry, I’m being targeted. I have to leave first. By the time you see this message, I’m already on my way to the airport. Otherwise, if that A-grade Beastmaster named Lu Xiu Ma Er also knows Aodinihi is with me, he will definitely come and force me to hand over Aodinihi.]

[The two of us together are not their match. It’s better if I leave first, so it’ll be easier for you to escape alone.]

[I’m going straight back to First District. We’ll be safer there. I…]

When she typed to this point, she suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Xiao Xunbao, who was panting and resting, and confirmed:

“Aodinihi is in your ring, right?”

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao wiped non-existent sweat from its forehead while nodding.

Qiao Sang relaxed and continued typing:

[I’ll wait for you in First District.]

Just as she clicked send, a brown figure, like a brown streak of light, plunged straight down from the sky towards Qiao Sang.

Yabao opened its mouth and sprayed a rotating flame upwards.

“Bang!”

With a loud bang, the brown figure instantly flew backward.

Without the aura of Emperor-level Pets, the wild Pets were clearly much more arrogant… Qiao Sang put away her phone and looked at Xiao Xunbao, asking:

“Are you rested?”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao gritted its teeth and nodded.

It understood that the situation was very bad right now. If they didn’t leave quickly, the guy in the ring might be captured, and then its position as boss would be gone.

“Alright, then let’s continue on our way.”
