After leaving the City Lord's mansion and seeing that the sky had already darkened, Huang Ye decided to first return to the Tang family to return the Phoenix Feather to Tang Xin.
Later, he would go back to the City Lord's mansion. He had to inform the two won about this matter so they could be ntally prepared.
He saw Tang Xin drinking tea in a teahouse and deliberately waited for a while before stepping away.
Before long, he noticed soone tailing him. This person's strength was far superior to those from the academy who had been following him.
However, no matter how strong soone was, they couldn't escape Huang Ye's eyes; no one would have guessed he had a rearview mirror.
This person was undoubtedly sent by the City Lord, likely the sa guy from the academy's dense forest last ti. His ability to hide and conceal himself was top-notch.
Huang Ye didn't bother with him. The situation was clear now; the City Lord had sent soone to follow him, probably to find out where he was going.
Tang Xin also saw Huang Ye co out safely, and her heart finally settled.
After waiting for a while, she paid the bill and left.
Huang Ye entered the Tang family mansion and waited for a long ti before Tang Xin returned, fuming with anger.
"You little rascal, why didn't you say you were coming back here? You made run back to the academy, and when I couldn't find you, I had to co back."
"Big sister, is that my fault? There's a tail behind ; I couldn't stop and wait for you."
"Couldn't you have gone back to the academy first?"
"The Phoenix Feather was exposed, so I had a legitimate reason to co to the Tang family."
With that, Huang Ye handed the small box to Tang Xin.
"How did things go today?"
"We laid all our cards on the table!"
"Ah! Why didn't you guys fight? What a pity, I prepared a bunch of hidden weapons for nothing."
Huang Ye glanced at Tang Xin. This girl was getting a bit cocky, thinking she was invincible now that she had beco a Martial Emperor.
"Why would we fight?"
"I don't know, but Father said you might turn against each other."
"Hehe, today he explained everything. He wasn't the mastermind."
"Oh! Then who was the mastermind?"
"That's not important anymore because they're already dead."
"Did the City Lord kill them?"
"No, I did."
"You did?" Tang Xin was a bit stunned.
"No way, you have to explain everything honestly. I'm all confused by you."
Huang Ye recounted the entire situation, and Tang Xin listened with a mix of shock, anger, regret, tension, surprise, and confusion.
Suddenly, she thought of sothing and started to laugh, a strange smile on her lips.
Huang Ye rolled his eyes at her.
"In such a terrifying, thrilling, and bizarre story, you actually find sothing to laugh about."
"I'm not laughing at anything else; I'm laughing at that Miss Xia, who died so inexplicably."
"And also laughing at you, with such a strong aura, the first person you killed after waking up was your greatest enemy."
"And it was an accidental kill, with no sense of revenge at all."
Huang Ye thought to himself, I didn't feel any satisfaction either; avenging the original owner was just to prevent him from affecting my cultivation.
"If you hadn't killed her, with her ways, she might have ended up in your bed."
"If she had beco a cultivator because of you, the story would have been even more bizarre."
Huang Ye broke out in a cold sweat; Tang Xin wasn't entirely wrong.
This woman would do anything for the City Lord, and being a public vehicle was truly frustrating for her.
Fortunately, he was a fool and avoided a disaster. If he hadn't been a fool, she might have been the one to make a move, not Yue'er.
"Husband, why not bring the sisters to the Tang family? I'm a bit worried about them being there."
"It's not safe here either. The City Lord said he could destroy the Tang family with ease."
"As long as I'm fine, he won't dare touch them. I'm playing the empty city strategy with him."
A quick look at bit.ly/3iBfjkV will leave you more fulfilled.
"He doesn't know my depth, and he's even more afraid of my fake master. If I bring the two of them here, it would show I'm feeling guilty."
"Take this ti to cultivate well. Only when we beco stronger ourselves can he not threaten us."
"Cultivate my ass; you can't even dual cultivate anymore. Cultivating alone is so boring."
"Boring or not, you have to cultivate. You're not a mortal now. I've heard that cultivators can close themselves off for a hundred years. If you can dual cultivate with , you'll be blessed. Don't be ungrateful."
"Then I'll wait for you to upgrade and feed back to , so I won't have to cultivate regularly."
"You lazy little thing, who knows when I'll be back. Will you never make progress?"
"Among you three, you're the strongest. I'm counting on you to protect them."
"True!"
"Silly girl, everyone goes through hardships when they grow. Did you beco a Martial King by picking it up?"
"That's true. I used to work really hard, but after dual cultivating with you, my motivation has waned."
"That's normal. Once people experience getting sothing for nothing, they develop lazy thoughts, waiting for pies to fall from the sky."
"Have you heard of 'Waiting for a chance'?"
"No, what are pigs and rabbits doing together?"
Huang Ye was speechless.
He carefully explained the fable to Tang Xin.
"Husband, you really know a lot."
"Of course, your husband is extraordinary."
"Yeah right, you're so full of yourself."
"By the way, don't you have any doubts that the City Lord is lying?"
"He probably isn't lying." Huang Ye was so sure because the original owner's mories had been unlocked.
So what he said was definitely the truth; he was just playing a more sophisticated ga, using a borrowed knife to kill.
Now he was playing mind gas with him too. After all, he was a modern person, familiar with the Thirty-Six Stratagems, and this empty city strategy was just a way to regain so ground.
"This is your family feud. As long as you think your judgnt is correct, it's fine. I'm always ready. I just don't believe that woman did all those things without him knowing."
"My dear sister, don't stir up trouble. This matter is already settled. Isn't it good as it is now?"
"Even if I kill him, so what? Who can control the forces of the woman in black?"
"They co and go without a trace, doing things unscrupulously. If I leave, you three will definitely be their targets."
"And now that demons are rampant, if he dies, various forces will fight for the City Lord's position, and there will be chaos. Who will deal with the demons?"
"Ah! Husband, you seem to have a point. You do think long-term."
"Don't worry, husband. I'll work hard to cultivate. I have to surpass the City Lord sohow. You can leave with peace of mind; I'll take good care of the two of them."
Huang Ye knocked on Tang Xin's head.
"Can you be more careful with your words? What do you an by 'leave with peace of mind'? Where do you want to go?"
"Ah! Husband, a slip of the tongue."
The two of them spent so ti together, and Tang Xin didn't dare to tease him too much. Although she wasn't a virgin and wouldn't drive Huang Ye crazy, she was afraid she couldn't handle it.
Seeing that it was already dark, Huang Ye bid farewell to Tang Xin, reminded her to cultivate diligently, and returned to the small courtyard under the cover of night.
He told the two won everything, and their reactions were similar to Tang Xin's, especially Qing'er, who cried her heart out, in stark contrast to Tang Xin's style.
Huang Ye understood; among the three won, Qing'er had the deepest feelings for the original owner.
The two won also admired Huang Ye's luck, as the first person he killed turned out to be his greatest enemy.
Huang Ye shared so of his cultivation experiences with the two won, and the three of them entered a ditation and cultivation mode.
In the dead of night, a soft sound reached Huang Ye's ears, followed by silence.
Hmm! This isn't the guards patrolling; soone is here, most likely that old man.
Haha, old man, I've finally waited for you. I can avenge Brother Xu now.
Huang Ye nudged the two won, signaling them that soone was coming and to stay silent.
He quietly moved to the window and listened carefully to the sounds outside.
He finally caught a faint breath.
The person outside stayed for a while, heard nothing, and then retreated.
Huang Ye heard the sound disappear, imdiately pushed open the window, and flew over the courtyard wall like a ghost.
Following the direction of the sound, he quickly saw a figure climbing over the City Lord's mansion wall.
Huang Ye imdiately followed, and at the wall, he didn't hesitate, flipping over it.
This ti, he didn't lose sight of the figure, who was weaving through the forest. Huang Ye followed closely behind.
