Rebirth Of A Villainess 112 Misgiving 22

The day after the battle against the demon lord and his armies was call off, Chen Yueming returned to his sect, or to be exact the clone returned from the meeting going through the front gates, while the original body snuck past the barriers erected around the WuYangChen sect.

"Sect Leader Chen, welcome back!"

Chen Yueming was greeted with much respect by the disciples of the sect, who knew nothing of his diabolical plan. He returned their greeting with much enthusiasm, as he strode towards his bedchambers.

Meanwhile, Lady Chen that was supposedly in her room with her newborn, was in fact in an alternate world under the influence of the spatial ring. Although, she held the ring in her hand and could return at will, the mistress of the WuYang Chen sect dared not disobey the stern warning of her husband, who told her not to return, but wait until he sought her out.

"Lady Chen, it is time for nanny Zu to take young master Chen out."

The maids of Chen Liling thought that the person they were speaking to in the room was their mistress, not knowing that it was a clone, since their spiritual power was not strong enough to overcome the illusion of Chen Yueming. They needed their mistress's permission to take her son to one of his wet nurse to be breastfed.

Right before then, they walked in to Chen Liling looking at the face of her son, but in a somewhat absent minded manner, thinking she may have gotten tired from holding on to their young master, the maids gave the excuse of having him see his wet nurse.

They saw her nod and quickly one of them reached to take the sleeping newborn from the hand of his mother.

"Lady Chen, would you like us to bring you something to snack on?!"

The clone of Chen Liling nodded morosely at them, causing each servant to look at each other with a look of perplexity in their eyes. They saw she continued to nod even when nothing was asked of her, which made the servants to nervously stare at their mistress.

"Quick! Get Sect Leader Chen! I think there is something wrong with Lady Chen!"

The maid that took the child from his mother, was the one of those that had served under Chen Liling since when she was a little child, she had never seen that type of look in her mistress's eyes, this made her search the baby in her arms more closely to see if it was some sort of strange affliction that had come over her mistress and the young master.

Several rushed out of the room to fetch the sect leader, while the rest of them remained behind to keep a watchful eye on their mistress.

"Sect Leader Chen!"

The maids frantically called to Chen Yueming from the threshold of the entrance to his courtyard. Chen Yueming had his own servants that served him and those were the only ones that were allowed to step past the entrance of his courtyard to where his bedchambers was, the reason for this was to prevent the servants under his wife from reporting back anything he didn't wish for her to know of, the two had maintained such a relations.h.i.+p for over eleven years.

The maids that served under Chen Yueming rushed out to see what the commotion was about, on getting to the entrance of the courtyard they were met by the maids that served Lady Chen.

"Sect Leader Chen just got back, is there anything you would like us to pa.s.s to him?"

Those that served under sect leader Chen, had an eerie similarity to that of his junior sister disciple, Xu Hui. Since Chen Liling had never met her before, she didn't know of her husband's peculiar nature. Also, the BaoXu sect kept the circ.u.mstances of Xu Hui's death a closely guarded secret. Therefore, none knew about her except those from the sect, after taking an oath of silence, neither could speak of the junior disciple of the then Feng Yueming to anyone at all.

"We think something has happened to Lady Chen! She isn't her usual self!"

"We'll pa.s.s what you said to Sect Leader Chen and let you know of he says."

They gave a slight bow to each other, before the maids that served the WuYangChen sect leader, hurried back to pa.s.s the news that came from maids that served their master's wife.

Knocking softly on the door of his bedchamber, a voice from within called out for them to come inside. After greeting their master, the maids went on to pa.s.s the message to Chen Yueming, who had dispelled the clone when it came back to the room earlier on, while he snuck back using a spatial ring without anyone being aware of his duplicity.

"Sect Leader Chen, maids from Lady Chen's courtyard said the mistress may be unwell."

Chen Yueming put the book he was reading by his desk to the side, without any change in his expression, he looked at each one and said, "Tell them, that I'll be there to see Lady Chen."

It was a look that neither had warmth nor showed coldness, but the voice that spoke lacked any form of affection in them.

They bowed once again, before opening the door to deliver their master's message to the maids that were waiting at the entrance of Chen Yueming's courtyard. There was no denying that the sect leader took good care of his courtyard, flowers bloomed from various corners and there was even a pond with tiny goldfishes swimming in clear waters. The leader of the WuYangChen sect would spend his pastime gazing at the flowers or his goldfish.

The maids told the ones from Chen Liling's chambers what their master said, before returning back to their post outside his bedchambers.

Inside, Chen Yueming stood up from his desk, as he prepared to do what was in his mind.

"Chen Liling, I guess it's time to bring you back."

To show how much he had no concern for his wife, Chen Yueming referred to her by her t.i.tle and would only call her by her name when he was up to no good. The WuYangChen sect leader, left his room to dispel the clones of his wife and son, bringing them back from where he sent them.
