Becoming the Villainess: I Dominate the Cultivation Realm with My Wok!-Chapter 191
Even the side courtyards of the Huo Family are stunningly luxurious. In this prime real estate area of the Capital City, the fact that the estate covers such a vast space signifies the immense favor upon the Huo Family.
Upon entering, maidservants greet the guests. Leading them is a delicate and beautiful woman with a tranquil and gentle demeanor, resembling more a cherished flower kept outside the family rather than a maid.
On the way to the side courtyard, Huo Lian had already handed the child back to Chen Muxue and tidied up his own appearance. Otherwise, if rumors spread, wouldn’t the reputation of him, the eldest young master of the Huo Family, be completely tarnished?
"This servant Lan Xin greets the eldest young master," Lan Xin stepped forward and bowed gracefully to Huo Lian.
"These are my esteemed guests. Make sure to settle them well; I have matters to attend back home," Huo Lian didn’t spare her another glance before turning his attention to Chen Muxue.
"Miss Chen, if you need anything, please feel free to let me know. There’s no need to restrain yourself in the Capital City."
Chen Muxue casually waved her hand, "You have business; go ahead. We’re not children anymore."
Little Hua’s head popped out from behind Chen Muxue, "Is Uncle leaving?"
Chen Muxue paused for a moment and laughed awkwardly, "We’re not all little kids, haha..."
Seeing several children around, Huo Lian couldn’t help but speed up his farewell, quickly saying his goodbyes and leaving swiftly.
Lan Xin was somewhat astonished; this was the first time she saw the eldest young master in such a hurry.
"Gentlemen, please enter. Chun Hua, take this miss to the backyard."
Now that Huo Lian had left, Lan Xin naturally began arranging everyone’s accommodations.
She quietly glanced at Chen Muxue. Despite her shabby attire and carrying an iron pot, she possessed some charm. The young master had bid farewell to her first, indicating she held some significance in his eyes.
She had seen many like her before, mostly daughters of merchants or Immortals from the Immortal Cultivation World — but today, this young woman was especially... remarkable?
Cen Lizhui first stopped Chun Hua, "Miss Chen shouldn’t go to the backyard. Logically, the main courtyard should be for Miss Chen’s stay; we can reside in the nearby smaller courtyards."
Lin Qing had just stepped forward but then hesitated, "It’s unheard of for a miss to stay in the main courtyard when visiting."
Chu Wuyi chimed in, "He’s right; speaking strictly, Miss Chen has the status of a Sect Leader, comparable to your master. If your master were here, would you not let him stay in the main courtyard?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Lan Xin’s eyes; this seemingly shabby young woman turned out to be a Sect Leader?
But still, if she was, it seemed she might belong to a somewhat insignificant sect.
Having been with the Huo Family for years, she was familiar with certain matters related to the Immortal Cultivation World.
Lin Qing was clearly reluctant to place Chen Muxue on the same level as his master: "My master is the esteemed Sixth Elder of the Liuyun Sect; how old is Miss Chen..."
Cen Lizhui chuckled, "Why don’t you ask your master’s opinion?"
Lin Qing hesitated, "Take me to a small courtyard nearby. I want one facing south with good sunlight!"
Who would dare ask the master? It’s obvious even to a layman that the master would definitely side with Miss Chen, given Miss Chen’s capabilities... Alas, it’s infuriating to pretend to be subservient!
Upon hearing "Liuyun Sect," a fleeting look of disbelief crossed Lan Xin’s face. Was she mistaken? Isn’t Liuyun Sect the most prominent sect in the Immortal Cultivation World?
