Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

In Xian Jing’s courtyard, Chunyu Dong held a jar of wine and was leaning against a tree, drinking from it.

Through the open window, he could see two people sitting in the room.

Xian Ya lowered her head. It was unknown what she was thinking about, but Xian Jing was meditating with his legs crossed.

At this moment, the door was pushed open and a servant walked in with a lamp. She whispered into Xian Ya’s ear.

As he was too far away, Chunyu Dong did not hear what she said.

He could only see that Xian Ya suddenly looked up at Xian Jing after hearing the servant’s words.

“Are you serious?”

She asked the servant softly.

The servant nodded. “It’s true. I saw it with my own eyes.”

Xian Ya bit her lip and was about to stand up when she heard Xian Jing say indifferently, “So what if Chunyu Dong is here? If you go, you’ll only destroy our revenge plan.”

Xian Ya’s movements paused. After a long while, she sat back obediently.

She laughed bitterly and mocked herself. “Brother is right.”

“I’ll take my leave first!”

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the servant quickly turned around and retreated.

Xian Jing glanced at her with faint sorrow and closed his eyes again to continue cultivating.

Xian Ya clenched her fists, and a wisp of unwillingness flashed past her eyes.

Her subordinate told her that she saw Qing Yi and Lan Yi at the government office.

If they were there, Chunyu Dong would definitely be there too.

She had not seen him for years and indeed wanted to see him.

However, Brother was right. If she went out like this, their plan to avenge her parents would be destroyed.

However, she suddenly thought of something.

“Brother, do you think Bailian was saved by Chunyu Dong?”

Xian Jing opened his eyes again.

He frowned and said in a deep voice, “It’s not impossible.”

If Bailian was really saved by Chunyu Dong, he would wake up sooner or later.

“I’ll wait here. Go back to the Five Peaks and find an opportunity to go to the river at the foot of Green Peak. That’s the source for Bailian. If he was really saved by Chunyu Dong, he will definitely recuperate there.”

“After we find him, we’ll take the opportunity to finish him off. We can’t let him have the chance to wake up.”

“Yes!”

Xian Ya agreed and left.

When Chunyu Dong heard that, he used a Communications Talisman to contact Elder Sen.

After cutting off the Communications Talisman, Chunyu Dong smiled faintly.

Seeing that Xian Jing had no intention of leaving, Chunyu Dong waited for a while before preparing to go back and meet Lu Zhou and the rest.

—————

On the other hand, Lu Zhou, who had just informed Sect Master Kong, looked up and continued to observe the movements of the puppets in the inn.

“There are so many people. Could they all be puppets?”

Shangguan Dian pinched his chin and spoke softly.

Lu Zhou scanned the puppets and said calmly, “It seems like there are only two or three who are fully conscious.”

Shangguan Dian frowned. “Did they really create so many puppets to deal with the people from the Immortal World?”

“I’m not sure.”

Lu Zhou took out his Communciations Talisman and contacted Lu Sheng.

In the inn, Lu Sheng saw a stir from the Communications Talisman and hurriedly took it out.

“Disciple, what’s the situation inside? Are there any normal people?”

“I think so.”

Lu Sheng replied softly, “One of the rooms is still closed. Almost all the other guest rooms are open.”

“Yes, remember to keep an eye on them. It’s best if they don’t come out.”

“Don’t worry, Master. I’ll protect them well.”

Lu Sheng had just finished speaking when there was no more sound from the other side.

She raised an eyebrow and quickly kept the Communications Talisman.

She looked up at the closed door, then walked to the railing and looked down at the situation below.

A gust of wind blew and she suddenly felt like there was someone beside her.

“Lord?”

She shouted softly.

“It’s me.”

Chu Sihan lowered his voice and said, “They’re not completely controlled yet. There should still be hope.”

“What’s going on? How did they refine so many people into puppets?”

Lu Sheng was really curious.

“It’s simple. Most people in the village share a well. They must have poisoned the well.”

There were so many people that the two of them alone would not be able to control them.

However, it would be much more convenient if the poison was directly thrown into the well.

Lu Sheng frowned. “So, the so-called puppet refinement is actually poisoning someone?”

“More or less.”

Chu Sihan looked down at the puppets below and said in a deep voice, “The Skill of Puppetry is to refine a potion that can make people hallucinate. After letting people take it, they can cast a curse on these puppets and completely control them.”

Lu Sheng nodded in realization. “I see.”

Chu Sihan pondered for a moment and said lightly, “Of course, this is the process of refining the living into puppets. It’s more strenuous to refine the dead.”

Refining a dead person into a puppet required a series of complicated rituals. It was much more troublesome than refining a living person.

This was also the reason why people later abandoned the dead and directly refined the living into puppets.

Lu Sheng said in a deep voice, “These people are too vicious. They simply don’t take human lives seriously.”

For their own selfishness, they had harmed so many people. How were they immortals? They were simply demons.

Chu Sihan sighed softly. “There’s no choice in this world.”

Lu Sheng glanced at the room where Mdm Tong and the rest were. After some thought, she took out a Boundary Talisman and placed it at the door.

Chu Sihan turned back to look at her and raised his eyebrows. “Are you going out?”

Lu Sheng nodded. “Let’s go out and take a look.”

It was not a good idea to stay here forever.

The puppets in the inn would only return to normal at dawn. She was a mortal and needed to rest.

“Okay.”

The duo went downstairs and jumped out of the window. Then, they broke a small hole in the boundary. After they exited, they used the Boundary Talisman again.

“Why did you come out?”

Lu Zhou looked behind them and frowned. “Where are those people?”

“I’ve already placed a Boundary Talisman at the door. Those puppets can’t enter.”

Lu Sheng yawned and went forward to ask Lu Zhou in a low voice, “Master, the Lord said that those people haven’t been completely controlled. Do you think they can still be saved?”

“Yes.”

Lu Zhou nodded slightly. “I’ve reported this to your grandmaster. Ask him in detail when he comes.”

“Grandmaster?”

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Which grandmaster?”

She remembered that her master had more than one master.

“He’s my and your Uncle-Master Chunyu’s master. As for the other…”

Lu Zhou paused and sighed. “He’s long gone.”

“Huh?”

Lu Sheng blinked. “Aren’t you all immortals? Would immortals die too?”

Lu Zhou explained in a low voice, “He’s not dead, but he has already become an immortal. People like me can only be considered immortal cultivators, but not real immortals. Real immortals live in the Heavenly Courts.”

“Oh!”

Lu Sheng nodded.

“Uncle-Master Lu, did Sect Master Kong say when he would come?”

Chu Sihan asked faintly.

Lu Zhou smiled faintly. “It should be soon.”

Just as he finished speaking, a white light flashed and two figures appeared on the path not far away.

“They’re here!”

Lu Zhou smiled and said to Lu Sheng, “Come, follow me to visit your grandmaster.”

“Okay!”

Lu Sheng nodded and hurried after Lu Zhou.

Shangguan Dian and Chu Sihan stood at their original spots and waited.

“Senior Sister is here too?”

As he stood further away, he did not see who was beside Sect Master Kong. When he got closer, Lu Zhou realized that Wen Yin had followed him.

“Junior Brother, long time no see!”

When she saw Lu Zhou, her cold expression softened.

“Rascal, why did you look for me?”

When Sect Master Kong saw him, he immediately spoke unhappily.

“There’s no hurry.”

Lu Zhou pulled Lu Sheng to the front and smiled at her. “Disciple, they are your grandmaster and Aunt-Master. Quickly address them.”

When Lu Sheng heard that, she hurriedly bowed and said respectfully, “Lu Sheng greets Grandmaster and Aunt-Master!”

“You’re Lu Sheng?”

Sect Master Kong held the lamp and observed her face for a while. Then, he nodded and said, “You look quite similar to your father.”

Lu Zhou’s smile froze and he hurriedly looked at Lu Sheng.

However, she smiled and said, “Does Grandmaster think that I look like Master? However, this is not my original skin.”

Sect Master Kong was stunned. Then, he laughed and said, “Grandmaster is not referring to your skin.”

He was referring to the soul under this skin.

“Really?”

Lu Sheng smiled and scratched her head. “Many people say that I look like Master. However, that’s normal. After all, I was raised by Master. Naturally, I’ll look like him.”

Lu Zhou heaved a sigh of relief.

He forgot to tell his master not to mention that he was her biological father in front of the girl.

“She does look like Junior Brother.”

After sizing Lu Sheng up, she suddenly smiled and spoke.

She walked forward, pulled Lu Sheng, and smiled. “Your master hid it so well. If I hadn’t asked, he probably wouldn’t have mentioned you.”

“Really?”

Lu Sheng frowned and pouted at Lu Zhou. “Master, am I that unpresentable?”

Lu Zhou nodded without hesitation. “Of course.”

Lu Sheng was speechless.

If she had known earlier, she would not have asked. She knew that her master would not say anything good.

“You’re the one who’s unpresentable. Rascal, how dare you talk about my granddaughter like that?”

Sect Master Kong smacked Lu Zhou on the back of his head.

“Chuckle…”

Seeing Lu Zhou rubbing his head gloomily, Lu Sheng laughed.

Wen Yin smiled and said, “Master, how can you hit Junior Brother in front of this Junior Disciple-Niece? Doesn’t he want his face?”

“Yes!”

Lu Zhou nodded in agreement.

With someone backing this girl, wouldn’t she become lawless in the future?

At that time, where should he put his dignity as a master?

Sect Master Kong snorted coldly and said disapprovingly, “Hurry up and tell me why you called me here.”

Lu Zhou lowered his hand and said in a low voice, “Follow me.”

Sect Master Kong frowned suspiciously but followed over.

Seeing Lu Zhou and Sect Master Kong leave, Lu Sheng hurriedly said to Wen Yin, “Aunt-Master, let’s go over too.”

“Okay!”

Wen Yin smiled and nodded.

“Greetings, Sect Master Kong!”

Shangguan Dian and Chu Sihan bowed to Sect Master Kong at the same time.

“You’re the Demon King. This is…”

Sect Master Kong looked at Chu Sihan suspiciously.

Chu Sihan hurriedly bowed and said, “I’m Yan Han.”

“Oh!”

Sect Master Kong was enlightened. “So it’s the son of the King of Hades.”

Chu Sihan nodded slightly. “Yes, I am!”

Sect Master Kong nodded. He was about to say something when he heard roars coming from the inn.

He paused and looked at the inn suspiciously. When he saw the scene inside, he could not help but frown.

“Those are… puppets?”

Lu Zhou nodded. “Yes, these are some villagers nearby. I heard that there was a drought in those villages for some reason in the past two years. Many people died, and only these people are left. Two days ago, they were brought to town after being rescued by Shenger and Young Master Han.”

Sect Master Kong frowned. “In other words, they’re no different from ordinary people in the day?”

“Yes.”

Lu Zhou said in a low voice, “I came here to ask you to save these people.”

When Sect Master Kong heard that, he entered the boundary and observed the situation. After a while, he frowned and left the boundary.

He looked at Lu Zhou again and asked in a deep voice, “What happened?”

Lu Zhou whispered into his ear, and Sect Master Kong was furious.

“If it’s really them, they deserve to die!”

“What’s wrong, Master?”

When Wen Yin saw Sect Master Kong’s sudden fury, she hurriedly asked in a low voice.

“Senior Sister, look over there.”

Lu Zhou pointed at the inn.

Wen Yin looked over suspiciously. When she saw the scene in front of her, she could not help but be shocked.

She saw the puppets clinging to the boundary, their bloodshot eyes looking out.

From time to time, they would roar angrily. However, some of their voices were filtered by the boundary, so it was not too loud.

“These… these are… puppets?”

She asked Lu Zhou in a daze.

“Yes.”

Lu Zhou nodded slightly and seemed to have thought of something. His expression was complicated.

He did not know how to tell his master and Senior Sister that Chunyu Dong was here too.

“Junior Brother, how is the situation here?”

Lu Zhou was feeling troubled when Chunyu Dong’s voice sounded from afar.

Sect Master Kong and Wen Yin’s bodies stiffened at the same time. They looked in the direction of the voice.

The smile on Chunyu Dong’s face froze.

He stopped in his tracks and stared at Sect Master Kong and Wen Yin in a daze.

“Eldest Senior Brother?”

Wen Yin shouted tearfully.

Sect Master Kong regained his senses and his expression darkened.

Chunyu Dong composed himself and smiled faintly again.

He strode forward and said to the two of them, “Greetings, Sect Master Kong and Fairy Wen Yin!”

Sect Master Kong sneered. “Sect Master Kong?”

Wen Yin looked at him bitterly and did not speak.

Chunyu Dong smiled and lowered his eyes to hide the bitterness in them.

“I’ve been kicked out of the Five Peaks and am no longer a disciple of the Five Peaks, let alone Master’s disciple…”

“Eldest Senior Brother!”

Wen Yin could not stand it anymore and hurriedly interrupted. Her beautiful eyes were already filled with tears.

No one else dared to speak. Lu Sheng stood between Chu Sihan and Lu Zhou and watched silently.

“Since you don’t recognize me as your master, why did you call Ah Zhou your junior brother?”

Sect Master Kong sneered and said, “Or did the two of you acknowledge another person as your master at the same time?”

“Heaven and earth can bear witness!”

When Lu Zhou heard that, he hurriedly explained himself. “I have the same master as him. You’re our only master.”
