Peerless Dual Cultivation: From Fool to Immortal-Chapter 105 – Seal opened
"Back then, my position as the City Lord was still unstable, and your injury greatly affected me."
"I needed her power to help eliminate some dissidents, which was crucial for stabilizing my position."
"You could say everything she did was for me, or for my disappointing son. In the end, I softened and let her go."
"When you were rescued, I warned her not to harm you again."
"Later, she admitted to poisoning the Huang family, though she didn't confess to plotting against your mother. But her death was related to her."
"The Huang family was continuously poisoned, and your mother was already heartbroken. The constant upheavals around her had a significant impact."
"Until you regained consciousness, she was suddenly killed outside the mansion, but the murderer was never found."
The City Lord glanced at Huang Ye, who listened calmly, showing no signs of emotion.
Huang Ye appeared calm, but his mind was about to explode.
When he heard who the murderer was, the original owner's sealed memories suddenly unlocked, and information flooded his mind.
The most important piece was that the original owner saw that woman during the attack.
It seemed like a sudden assault, and the original owner had no thoughts of revenge.
In his memories, there were no parents, only a playful childhood, two unfriendly brothers, and several fierce women.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from ".
There was also a rather eye-catching scene, with the First Madam as the female lead. Since she was sitting, the male lead only saw her profile, looking quite young.
The original owner must have accidentally seen the scene, not understanding why the First Madam was making such loud noises.
But the First Madam had a great figure, and he must have been injured not long after seeing it.
This fool remembered all sorts of nonsense, taking up too much space, with only one useful piece of memory.
But that's good, it saves me trouble, and I've avenged him, no wonder the truth awakened the memories.
As for why this happened, it must involve metaphysics. Only when the original owner and he find the answer together can the memories unlock.
This also confirms that the City Lord's words are mostly true.
Women who do anything for love are not uncommon, and the most venomous is a woman's heart. She's cunning enough to do such things.
No wonder when they searched her, the silver notes had Wu Jiang's seal. This woman couldn't handle the old one, so she took it out on the young one.
If she had taken down both, the story would be more exciting. This family is truly a mess.
Now I can finally relax, not worrying about this guy causing trouble during my breakthrough.

"Ye'er, I'm telling you this today so you know that I didn't adopt you just to covet the Huang family's wealth, as the rumors say."
"Your father did me a favor, and I must repay it. Taking care of you and your mother is only right."
"If I hadn't stepped in back then, the Huang family couldn't have been defended by your mother alone. You and your mother might have turned to dust long ago."
"But I was also wrong to let Miss Xia go for my own benefit."
"This is how the whole thing went down. Believe it or not, I don't need to explain further."
"If you're not satisfied and think I used the Huang family, that your mother's death and your injury were my fault."
"I'll give you a chance. When you advance to Martial Emperor, you can challenge me."
"But you're not allowed to secretly attack my Wu family. I know they're unfriendly to you, but you're still alive and have grown stronger."
Suddenly, he saw Huang Ye smile, a strange smile.
The reason for the smile was simple: he finally understood why something felt off.
The City Lord, a man with deep schemes, never reveals his thoughts but lets his subordinates guess. If they guess right, he criticizes; if wrong, he discards.
That's why he didn't kill Miss Xia, using her infatuation as his best shield. Only Miss Xia understood him and knew what he wanted.
In his eyes, everything, including familial bonds, brotherhood, and friendship, could be used, even his nominal father sacrificing himself to save him.
But none of this concerned him. Instead, he had to thank the City Lord for unlocking the original owner's memories.
Heh, little guy, you finally understand something, or I wouldn't mind destroying you now.
"City Lord, you indeed acted with bias, but it's understandable. In your position, I'd do the same. Not using available resources would be foolish."
Hearing this, the City Lord nearly choked.
This kid is using sarcasm, even changing the way he addresses me, clearly dissatisfied.
Such an ignorant brat, it seems I've been too lenient.
"I have something to show you." With that, Huang Ye took out the black ring from his pocket.
"How did you get this? Did your master give it to you?"
"That's not your concern. You might not know, but she attacked me again three months ago."
"She attacked the Huang family and me, dying at their hands. She deserved it."
"What! She attacked again!" The City Lord's reaction didn't seem feigned; he was genuinely surprised.
"That foolish woman deserved to die. She promised me, yet after all these years, she acted again."
"You should ask your good son about it. Maybe they planned it together."
"What, you think Jiang'er orchestrated it?" The City Lord's tone was unfriendly.
"It's hard to say."
"I can tell you clearly, Jiang'er was not the mastermind."
"I know my son. He wears his heart on his sleeve. With Miss Xia's cunning, she wouldn't tell him anything."
"Heh, the main culprit is dead, so whether he was the mastermind doesn't matter. As long as he doesn't dare now."
"Indeed, even with courage, he wouldn't dare provoke you. I heard you subdued the old Qu family."
Huang Ye thought, it seems the mysterious person in the forest was the City Lord's man.
"Not bad."
"City Lord, the grievances between the Huang and Wu families are in the past."
"I'm not a fool. I think it's best to let bygones be bygones and focus on the future."
"I'm not interested in the Huang family's assets. I can't take them with me, so it's better to leave them to maintain your position."
"Qing'er and Yue'er are mine. When I leave, they can't come with me. They can only stay in the mansion or be sent to the Tang family."
"If they stay, take care of them with luxury. If sent to the Tang family, send them a thousand taels of silver monthly."
"I suppose the Huang family's assets make that amount a drop in the bucket."
"A thousand taels isn't much, but it sounds like you're ordering me. Do you think you're qualified?"
"I owe the Huang family and your parents, but I don't like being ordered."
"Not to mention I'm your father's good brother, you're practically half my son. Though I haven't cared for you well, I've done right by the Huang family, fulfilling your mother's last wish."
"Do you think it's appropriate for a junior to order an elder?" The City Lord spoke coldly.
