Becoming the Villainess: I Dominate the Cultivation Realm with My Wok! Chapter 323

The Huo Family, Changgui rushed to Huo Lian before Cen Lizhui could bring the others along.

"What happened? You’re sweating all over." Huo Lian gently took a handkerchief from his sleeve to wipe Changgui’s sweat.

The surrounding servants all lowered their heads, but their eyes were desperately sneaking peeks upwards. Could this be the rumored illegitimate child of the eldest son? It was the first ti they’d seen such a gentle expression from him!

Although the eldest son always had a gentle and refined deanor, he always maintained a sense of distance, and whenever soone tried to get closer, he would clearly remind them with his actions that he was, after all, a rchant.

However, in front of Changgui, he was so affable. In this manner, not to ntion the other children, even his own brothers in the Huo family had never received such care from their elder brother!

"Uncle Huo Lian, last night the Sect Leader was injured. A servant gave her dicine, but it was poison. Fortunately, my Sect Leader is the most powerful person, immune to all poisons. That’s how she didn’t fall for it. You wouldn’t believe it, but when the dicine fell to the ground, it burned a hole in the bear skin rug on the floor!"

As Changgui spoke, he naturally took the tea offered by the servants, took a sip without looking, and then naturally placed it back on the tray to be taken away.

The smoothness of his actions made it seem as if he were a young master of the Huo family.

Upon hearing this, Huo Lian’s brows knitted tightly in worry: "Is Miss Chen alright?"

He felt that he nearly had Changgui on his side, but Chen Muxue still held a special place in Changgui’s heart. If sothing happened to her at the hands of the Huo family’s servants, Changgui would certainly harbor resentnt, ruining all his efforts.

The exorcism pills Changgui concocted last ti had already shown initial results. With such great talent, even if the Crown Prince... couldn’t use him in the future, having him in the Huo family would be invaluable.

"I told you, the Sect Leader is immune to all poisons!" Changgui proudly patted his chest, as if he himself was immune, "The Sect Leader even went to the Yin Family last night, got bitten by a centipede, and was still perfectly fine!"

Things that others might dismiss, children often rember vividly, regardless of their veracity, as long as they find it impressive, they would say it.

The Yin Family?

Huo Lian squinted his eyes slightly. The Miaojiang family known for witchcraft had been burned to ashes last night, years of operation destroyed in a single day, and Master Yin had gone missing. Who would have thought Miss Chen was there last night and got bitten by a centipede?

No matter how much he thought, Huo Lian felt there must be so connection between Chen Muxue and the Yin Family. Although with Miss Chen’s current cultivation, it seed nearly impossible for her to have orchestrated such destruction against the Yin Family. Even if she defeated them, setting the fire to such an extent was unlikely.

Know that when the Governnt Office saw the ruins of the Yin Family, they concluded that the person responsible must have at least reached the Divinity Transformation Realm, yet Miss Chen had only recently entered the Nascent Soul Realm.

The Nascent Soul Realm might seem only a step away from the Divinity Transformation Realm, but many people get stuck at this point, unable to progress, and those with insufficient talent can stall here for hundreds or even thousands of years, until their lifespan runs out.

Just as Huo Lian wanted to ponder further, a frighteningly thin figure with an unusually swollen head crashed through the door.

Cen Lizhui strolled in slowly, followed by the doorkeeper chasing after with a crowd, shouting, "Big Brother! You really can’t go in!"

Huo Lian made a gesture signaling the doorkeeper and his followers to retreat. Only then did the doorkeeper catch his breath, leaning against the wall to turn around. Lately, the visitors of the eldest son were becoming increasingly bizarre. He wondered if he should consider changing his job...
