Peerless Dual Cultivation: From Fool to Immortal-Chapter 106 – My great master
Huang Ye glanced at the City Lord, this old man had gained so many benefits and still put on airs.
I only resolved the original owner's issues, so I'm being cordial. If the original owner truly knew about his parents' matters and that you were the mastermind, I'd kill you sooner or later.
"City Lord, it seems you're too accustomed to your high position to tolerate any dissent."
"Perhaps, but at least within Silver Moon City, no one dares to defy me."
"Since I've been here, it's been you talking and me listening."
"No matter what you say, I haven't questioned it. You think you've done right by the Huang family, but that's just your perception."
"I only made a small request, and you're already dissatisfied. What if I forcibly reclaim the Huang family's assets?"
"Then we'll see if you have the guts." The City Lord looked at Huang Ye with disdain.
This young man is too arrogant, thinking that just because he's reached the peak of Martial King, he can disregard his elders. He really doesn't know his limits.
"Haha, I'd like to give it a try!" With that, Huang Ye waved his hand, and the Phoenix Feather appeared in his grasp.
"You don't think that Tang Sect's hidden weapon can deal with me, do you? If it weren't for the deep roots of the Tang Sect, wiping out the Tang family would be a piece of cake." The City Lord sneered.
"And what about this?" Huang Ye raised his index finger, and a small flame flickered to life.
"You, you're a cultivator, how is that possible!" The City Lord's eyes widened in shock, and he took two steps back.
"Surprised, aren't you?"
The City Lord's face turned a bit grim, his mind racing. He realized his judgment had been completely wrong.
No wonder this kid had remained so composed and indifferent towards him.
This kid's martial prowess was already at the peak of Martial King, corresponding to the late Initial Yang Realm for cultivators.
This kid advanced so quickly, likely with the help of a cultivator. Only a cultivator could enhance his strength so rapidly.
This cultivator must be very powerful, and in their eyes, he might not even be considered an ant. Ordinary cultivators definitely wouldn't have such capabilities.
Miss Xia must have had her organs shattered by this cultivator, which explained why no martial techniques were found back then.
And the fact that the cultivator didn't burn Miss Xia's body was likely a warning to him.
How could such a powerful cultivator come to a small place like Silver Moon City? He couldn't figure it out.
Could it be like his eldest son, just passing through, saw his potential for cultivation, and took him as a disciple?
That seemed to be the only explanation; otherwise, it didn't make sense.
No, even if he fought him now, victory wouldn't be assured, and since he dared to come over, his master might be nearby.
He had worked hard to get to where he was now and couldn't act impulsively.
"I agree to your terms!"
"If you'd said that earlier, it would have been better. Between us, it's just a messy account. Why hold onto that grudge?"
"Alright, let's settle it like this. I won't be leaving Silver Moon City anytime soon."
"Don't get any funny ideas. I've said I'm not interested in worldly wealth. You can continue being the City Lord."
"Sigh! You're right. It seems I've been in a high position too long and lost my sense of reverence."
"Are you leaving with your master?"
"Don't try to pry. What I do is my business. Let's just coexist peacefully; our paths are different."
"I understand, martial artists and cultivators indeed walk different paths. If it weren't for your father using a secret technique back then, we wouldn't have been able to fight that cultivator."
"Do you know that guy's name?"
"Daoist Bei He."
"Alright, I'll remember that. I'll ask my master later if I can beat him."

"If you can, I'll head to Linshui City first."

"You should be careful. Although he wasn't very strong back then, cultivators progress quickly."
"I've advanced to the mid-Martial Emperor level, so he's definitely stronger, probably at least mid-Primordial Yang Realm."
"If he has a sect, the danger increases."
"I know, I'll investigate the situation first. If it doesn't work, I'll wait a year or so. My master says I have great talent, and by then, I'll be stronger than him."
This kid is quite arrogant, thinking he can surpass someone in just a year or so.
"You could ask your master to intervene."
"I'll handle my own revenge."
"Alright, I'm leaving." With that, he walked out of the City Lord's Palace with an air of indifference.
Not long after, a black-clothed person appeared in the hall.
"City Lord, I didn't expect him to be a cultivator. It's unbelievable."
"Do you still want revenge?"
"City Lord, I wouldn't dare. We'd just be sending ourselves to our deaths."
"Sigh! I never thought I'd have a son who's a chosen one, and Huang Jian would have a son capable of cultivation."
"It's truly fate's trick. After becoming foolish, he turned into a cultivator, and a powerful one at that. Where's the justice in that?"
"City Lord, I think we could have taken him down earlier. He carried Tang Sect's hidden weapon, indicating he wasn't confident."
"Fool, do you think I'm afraid of him? He's only been cultivating for three months and already has the combat power of a peak Martial King. His master's level must be unfathomable."
"Are you referring to the person who killed Miss Xia?"
"We know nothing about his master. Even if his master isn't here, he could be tricking us, and we can't act rashly."
"Don't you know how Miss Xia died? Her internal organs and bones were shattered. His master didn't destroy the body to intimidate us. Anyone who dares to touch that kid will end up like Miss Xia."
"I suspect his master is likely above the Primordial Yang Realm; otherwise, he couldn't have enhanced his strength so quickly."
"Only a great cultivator would have such miraculous pills and elixirs."
Huang Ye didn't know, but he indeed had a brush with death.
His understanding of the Martial Emperor level was limited, only hearing from Father Tang that Tang Xin was already equivalent to the early Martial Emperor level.
He thought he was at least on par with the early Martial Emperor level, and with his techniques and hidden weapons, he could contend with the mid-Martial Emperor level.
But he didn't know the City Lord was already infinitely close to the late Martial Emperor level.
The two of them had just engaged in a psychological battle. The City Lord had no intention to kill, given their intricate connections.
He was just displeased with Huang Ye's disrespect and intended to teach him a lesson, to show him the heights of the sky.
Huang Ye also didn't want to wrestle with the City Lord. The original owner and the City Lord had a tangled mess, and the main culprit had been dealt with.
The City Lord merely used the original owner, and it had nothing to do with him. There was no point in fighting to the death.
Demonstrating his abilities was meant to protect the two maids and Tang Xin. He feared that after he left, the City Lord would take out his anger on them, especially since the black-clothed woman had died at the hands of a fake master.
Even if the City Lord didn't cause trouble, the black-clothed woman's people would seek revenge. They were loyal subordinates who had been won over by her, and they wouldn't let her death go unavenged.
By revealing his identity as a cultivator, he ensured the City Lord would be cautious.
With the City Lord's protection, those people wouldn't dare to harm the three of them, giving them time to grow.
That was his purpose in revealing everything today, though he overestimated himself.
And the City Lord misjudged him, thinking he had a powerful master.
Huang Ye naturally played along, using the situation to his advantage. If he couldn't handle this, his two lifetimes would have been in vain.
