Chapter 1952: Chapter 169: Fang Lan (Part 2)
It also destroyed the Divine Mark he was about to comprehend successfully, missing the opportunity to become a god! Your mother felt very guilty about it, so she asked your Uncle Master Ling if he was willing to stay at the City Lord’s Mansion for a lifetime. After asking, your Uncle Master Ling agreed. Although I knew he liked your mother, I believed in your mother to ease her conscience, and I supported her. Besides, I knew your Uncle Master Ling would not harm your mother or do anything to make her unhappy or put her in a difficult position!
When your mother realized your Uncle Master Ling’s feelings, she once suggested to me that we should give the City Lord’s Mansion to Uncle Master Ling and move to another place. But knowing that if we left, your Uncle Master Ling would also leave, his legs were not good, and he could not increase his power anymore, going out alone would be very dangerous. In the end, we chose to stay. Your mother, afraid I would be paranoid, began to go into seclusion frequently, deliberately avoiding being alone with your Uncle Master Ling...
Your Uncle Master Ling also understood, so except for going into seclusion, he helped me manage the City Lord’s Mansion, not thinking about anything else, using busyness to dispel other thoughts, but in the end, he was still...," Lord Feng said to Fang Lan with some sadness.
"Hypocritical, disgusting man!" Fang Lan said to Lord Feng.
"Brother-in-law, did you know she poisoned you?" Fang Shile asked Lord Feng. He had not expected so many things.
"Yes, I know! After Fang Lan left, I lived each day like a year. All the matters of the City Lord’s Mansion were managed by Senior Ling. Later, I couldn’t find Xiaoqian anywhere, Xiang Yao was still young, and Senior Ling advised me to think more about Xiang Yao. I knew Xiaoqian would be very sad if she knew I didn’t care about Xiang Yao, so I searched for Xiaoqian while educating Xiang Yao! For hundreds of years, Senior Ling was with me. Eventually, we both understood that we had become family to each other!
How could I not notice something wrong with my family? At first, I did not know that Senior Ling had died; neither did I know that it was Fang Lan masquerading as Senior Ling! Until I became suspicious, I deliberately let the kitchen add a dish that Senior Ling never ate, and then while drinking with ’him,’ I deliberately said it was his favorite dish. Fang Lan, not knowing Senior Ling well, naturally ate it! It was then I knew something might have happened to Senior Ling! Yet, after searching the City Lord’s Mansion privately, I couldn’t find any traces of Senior Ling until something odd about Feng Yan caught my attention...
I remembered Xiaoqian once told me that Fang Lan had a juvenile Illusion Beast! So many years have passed, and I guessed that beast has grown up. The alchemists in the mansion said there were no traces of Disguise Pill on ’Senior Ling’! Thus, I realized it was her, Fang Lan, masquerading as Senior Ling...
I thought she might have killed Senior Ling, but I had Senior Ling’s Soul Tokens, and even after all these three hundred years, they remained intact, even just before my poisoning, I had still seen Senior Ling’s soul, still perfectly fine! However, I never expected..." Lord Feng looked at Fang Lan with sadness and said.
"A person like him, I kept him just to help me poison you!" Fang Lan glared at Lord Feng and said.
"Since you hate me so much, why didn’t you kill me three hundred years ago? With your poisoning technique, it would not have been difficult to kill me!" Lord Feng looked at Fang Lan and asked. This was also something he was puzzled about.
"Killing you outright would have been too easy on you!" Fang Lan said with hatred.
