Becoming the Villainess: I Dominate the Cultivation Realm with My Wok! Chapter 217

Huo Lian stared deeply at Chen Muxue, who was crouching in the corner wearing a black cloak, silent.

"Are you aware that both of us n are standing right behind you openly?"

Chen Muxue turned her head and looked, startled: "What are you doing standing behind ?! I’m sneaking into a forbidden zone, and standing like that makes you way too conspicuous!"

Lin Qing recalled the route he’d seen in the copper mirror, and combined it with Chu Wuyi’s description, then said quietly: "Your sneaking skills are quite sothing. The garden is just ahead, still quite far from the forbidden zone, and there’s not even a patrol around."

All around was desolate and unstaffed, with the servants presumably hiding sowhere or perhaps enjoying a spectacle at Second Lord’s place. Where the three stood, only gusts brought fallen leaves fluttering past.

Chen Muxue stood up: "This is called ambiance, what do you know..."

Alright, she was a bit frightened, Lin Qing had promised to bring Huo Lian right away, yet she wandered around for ages without anyone arriving, almost being dragged off by that twenty-five-year-old lady to discuss how to kill that vixen Liu Hong.

It was fortunate her movents were agile, managing to avoid people within blind spots.

"What are you guys doing sneaking into the Chu Family’s forbidden zone?" Huo Lian asked in confusion, feeling he missed a lot, "By the way, the Chu Family actually has a forbidden zone?"

"We’ll explain later, this ti we’re mainly here to rescue the Black Cat — that’s Xiaohua’s cat, you might be aware?" Lin Qing glanced left and right, not seeing anyone, then just walked straight out.

"So, you’re causing such a fuss, even impersonating the kidnappers of Qixi, sneaking into the Chu Family, and planning to break into their forbidden zone, all for a cat?"

Silence.

"Ahem, this matter is hard to explain to you."

Huo Lian pinched his brow: "Where’s Qixi? Where’s he now?"

"Oh, he’s with Chu Wuyi and them, nothing’s wrong." Lin Qing waved his hand dismissively.

Huo Lian thought it might be best to turn around and leave now that he’d heard Qixi was okay.

However, the young lady seed quite serious, showing no intention of leaving.

He really couldn’t understand, it’s just a cat, why risk breaking into soone else’s forbidden zone?

Though most of the Chu Family isn’t impressive, it doesn’t an there aren’t skilled individuals, besides, those hundreds of household soldiers weren’t raised just for show. If each were Foundation Establishnt practitioners, a hundred could still precariously challenge a Nascent Soul.

Not to ntion there’s heard to be many formidable ones inside.

A head of a Thousand Paper Crane silently peeked out of Chen Muxue’s sleeve.

"Miss Chen shouldn’t lose her way, right?"

In the teahouse, Chu Wuyi stared at a palm-sized mirror, sowhat nervous.

Cen Lizhui kicked a black-clothed eunuch just waking up, confird the eunuch continued fainting with a head full of lumps, then turned back to squeeze next to Chu Wuyi for a look.

"I don’t know if they’ll make it in, but just coincidentally eting the sister outside would still be good." Chu Wuyi frowned deeply.

He still believed at heart that his sister retained so of her original consciousness, and if she could see Chen Muxue, everything should naturally resolve.

Cen Lizhui’s hand beneath his sleeve repeatedly fiddled with a small bead, feeling quite tense watching the mirror.

"Why can’t I go? I just want to see Second Uncle’s ugly face! Humph, that useless, I’ve been irritated with him for ages!" ca a girl’s voice, making everyone more anxious.

"Miss Seventh, this isn’t right to look at! Not only is the Second Prince there, but Second Lord’s hand has been severed..."

"Ha, I just love watching that kind of thing!"
