The Villain Starts From Dual Cultivation With The Protagonist's Master

Lu Chuan and Yan Liu arrived at the courtyard, where some ornamental flowers and plants were planted, and a few chickens were kept to catch insects.

It was already dusk, with the sun sinking in the west, leaving only a small portion visible. The light gradually dimmed, and the courtyard appeared even darker due to the obstruction of the houses.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Yan Liu approached Lu Chuan. However, Lu Chuan didn't give her a chance. Every time Yan Liu took a step closer, Lu Chuan would take a step back, keeping a distance between them.

Seeing that Meng Qing kept her distance from her, Yan Liu stopped and said softly, "Meng Xianren, to be honest, I'm actually afraid of the dark."

Her words trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes, as if she really was afraid of the dark.

"It's okay, I'm here."

Lu Chuan said slowly and decisively, displaying a masculine demeanor.

It turned out that he liked delicate women. Yan Liu believed she had figured out Lu Chuan's preferences.

She thought Meng Qing would say something to comfort her, but he disappeared in an instant.

A cry of a chicken came from the courtyard.

The next second, Lu Chuan returned to Yan Liu with a chicken that had been plucked.

"Here, I've killed it for you. If you're afraid of the dark, go back to the kitchen. It's bright there."

Yan Liu took the chicken, trying to control her twitching face and forced a smile.

"Thank you, Xianren."

"No need to thank me. I'll go find my junior and junior sister now. You can busy yourself."

Lu Chuan was ready to leave, but Yan Liu spoke again, "Xianren, wait. The chicken hasn't been gutted yet. I'll trouble you again."

Yan Liu believed that Meng Qing didn't notice her beauty because it was too dark outside. Going back to the kitchen, where the night pearl could illuminate, was her battlefield.

Seeing Yan Liu's occasional sinister smile, Lu Chuan knew what she was up to, but he wasn't afraid. As a Qi Refining Stage Evil Cultivator, she couldn't harm him.

"Alright, I'll be a good person to the end. Let's go."

The two returned to the kitchen. Yan Liu cooked rice while Lu Chuan handled the chicken.

As cultivators, their daily lives were convenient. They didn't need a knife to gut the chicken. With their spiritual energy, a simple stroke was enough.

"Sister Su, did you hear any strange sounds?" Luo Li asked in confusion.

"That was a chicken crowing. It's probably Meng Qing catching chickens in the courtyard. Didn't Yan Liu say we'll have chicken for dinner?" Su Lianlian answered.

The two were in the storage room, checking if there were any items from the Immortal Gate. If there were, it would indicate a connection between the mayor's family and the missing disciples of the Immortal Gate.

After checking so many rooms, everything seemed fine except for the mayor's room.

"Sister Su, there's nothing wrong here either. Let's go back to the hall."

Su Lianlian nodded and returned to the hall with Luo Li. They sat on a bench and sorted out the information they had gathered from noon until now.

In the kitchen, Lu Chuan finished handling the chicken. In order to prevent Yan Liu from saying anything unnecessary, he considerately cut the chicken into pieces for easy cooking.

Yan Liu cooked at the stove, adding seasoning to the pot. Lu Chuan stood at the cutting board, supervising to see if Yan Liu put anything strange inside.

Before long, the first dish was ready. Yan Liu scooped the dish and walked towards Lu Chuan.

Yan Liu wanted to deliberately fall down. She didn't believe there was a man who didn't know how to cherish a beautiful woman. She wanted to see Meng Qing help her up, inhale the aphrodisiac perfume, and then smoothly seduce him, absorbing his essence while shifting the blame onto the uncontrollable Meng Qing.

Lu Chuan thought Yan Liu was going to place the cooked dish on the cutting board and make way for him.

When the two were less than a meter apart, Yan Liu suddenly lost her balance and fell to the ground. The plate of vegetables fell and shattered, scattering the cooked greens all over the floor.

The sound of a person falling, the sound of the plate shattering.

The kitchen was in the middle of all the rooms, and the entire mayor's residence could hear the commotion.

Before Lu Chuan could figure out what was happening, Luo Li and Su Lianlian arrived at the kitchen door, with Zhuang Leyuan standing behind them.

Upon seeing his beloved wife fall to the ground, Zhuang Leyuan immediately walked forward to help Yan Liu up.

"Xiao Liu, what happened?" Zhuang Leyuan asked with concern.

"It hurts... husband, I'm fine." Yan Liu, who had previously given Lu Chuan the impression of being different, now appeared as a pure and innocent young woman.

Yan Liu continued, "I'm really clumsy, I can't do anything right. I even trip while walking. I originally wanted to invite a few immortals to have dinner here and entertain them, but now everyone has seen me make a fool of myself."

As she spoke, tears welled up in Yan Liu's eyes, and Zhuang Leyuan quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe them away.

"Don't call yourself clumsy. You should go rest first."

Zhuang Leyuan picked up Yan Liu and said to Lu Chuan and the others, "I'll take care of dinner. I'm quite skilled, and I'll definitely satisfy our immortal guests."

He hurried to the hall, took out the red flower medicine, and used it to wipe Yan Liu's knees. As he wiped, he asked if it hurt, while Yan Liu looked at the man who was worried about her and smiled, saying it was nothing.

In the eyes of the world, this couple was sweet and the epitome of lovers.

But in reality, Yan Liu was thinking about another man in her heart. She now hated Meng Qing for making her look so ridiculous and for having to fake a smile to please Zhuang Leyuan, which was exhausting.

In Yan Liu's eyes, Zhuang Leyuan, a man with little vitality left, was no different from a seventy or eighty-year-old man.

She came to the mayor's residence to poison Zhuang Leyuan's father, the mayor of Azure Rock Town. Marrying Zhuang Leyuan was just a whim, but she didn't expect Zhuang Leyuan to take it seriously and fall in love with her.

With the idea of "better safe than sorry," she had originally planned to spare the lives of these three people, but now she had changed her mind.

Everyone had to die.

Tonight, Yan Liu was going to inform her adoptive father, who was hiding in the mountains, that there was another prey from Immortal Gate coming to them.

Damn Meng Qing, aren't you uninterested in women? Aren't you ignoring me? I'll have my adoptive father chop off your limbs and turn them into human sticks for his own pleasure, becoming his toy.

Su Lianlian and Luo Li returned to the hall after seeing that nothing major had happened in the kitchen and started talking to Yan Liu, waiting for dinner.

Lu Chuan didn't want to stay with Yan Liu and took the initiative to offer help to Zhuang Leyuan.

With spiritual energy turning into fire, the stove didn't need firewood to be used, and the size of the fire was easy to control.

Before long, Zhuang Leyuan finished stir-frying five dishes and brought them to the dining table in the hall.

It had to be said that Zhuang Leyuan was indeed skilled, as the dishes were both delicious and visually appealing. The three people from Immortal Gate praised his cooking skills.

Zhuang Leyuan and Yan Liu also fed each other at the dining table, laughing and talking non-stop.

After finishing the meal, Zhuang Leyuan invited the guests to stay.

"Immortals from Immortal Gate, would you like to stay at the mansion for the night? We still have five or six empty guest rooms, which should be enough."

The person who answered was Su Lianlian, who smiled politely and declined, "Thank you for your kind offer, Mr. Zhuang, but we have already made reservations at an inn in town. Our belongings are already there, so we won't stay. It's getting late, there's no need to see us off. Thank you for your hospitality today."

Luo Li was puzzled, wondering when they had made reservations at an inn. She had no idea.

At this moment, in Luo Li's storage ring, a voice transmission talisman displayed a line of words: Help! On the mountain.

This voice transmission talisman was given to Luo Li by Wu Dian when they parted.

After a moment, the voice transmission talisman turned into ashes and quietly stayed in a corner of the storage ring.

If one voice transmission talisman was damaged, the other would disappear in the same way.
