I Possessed the Wicked Empress (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 157
Although she had learned the truth behind Pelio’s mother’s death through the diary, Ermedilin did not add a single line about it to her will.
If she were to explain the circumstances, she would have to dig up the past of Duke Baptistian and the Duchess—but she did not wish to wound Pelio’s soul merely for the sake of justifying herself.
If death was truly inevitable—if there was no hope left for survival—then all Ermedilin wanted was to leave him a sincere apology.
Thus, she hoped his heart might find even the slightest peace.
“I know this isn’t something that can be resolved with an apology, but I still wanted to apologize to you. I’m sorry… for doing such a terrible thing to you….”
“Enough.”
Pelio cut off Ermedilin’s words with a firm voice.
“There’s no need for you to apologize.”
“?”
Startled by the unwavering firmness in his tone, Ermedilin struggled to sit up from her bed.
“I already knew.”
“What?”
How many sleepless nights had she spent in anguish, deceiving him all this while?
Yet he had already known—Ermedilin let out a hollow, sorrowful question.
In truth, Pelio had only recently come to understand the full past, but even if he had known earlier, the situation would not have changed.

My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.

The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
