What's that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan, who had been lost in thought about Bai Zihan's newfound strength, was suddenly distracted by the unfamiliar words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she was curious about how Bai Zihan had improved so much in such a short time, she wasn't as obsessed with power as most people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, with her talent, she could have remained in the sect, cultivating day and night, and would have achieved far more than she had now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In any case, when she heard Bai Zihan mention fried chicken, her curiosity was piqued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of dish was it that the young master of the Bai Clan favored?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She assumed it must be some kind of fancy name for the meat of a bird-type monster or something similar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe… How about you come with me and try it? I'm sure you'll like it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan said with a grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was certain that someone like Chu Ziyan wouldn't have eaten something like Fried Chicken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that all those annoying people had been dealt with, she had nothing better to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Qing quickly returned to inform Bai Zihan that the Head Chef had begun preparing the dish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, the food will be ready soon,\" she said softly, keeping her head slightly lowered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan gave a satisfied nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Let's go to the dining hall then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he turned to Chu Ziyan and gestured for her to follow. She did so without hesitation, curiosity gleaming in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Qing trailed behind them, as always, maintaining a quiet presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dining hall of the Bai Clan was grand, with intricately carved wooden pillars and golden lanterns casting a warm glow over the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The long dining table was already set, and before long, servants arrived, carefully placing down plates filled with golden, crispy pieces of fried chicken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan's nose twitched as she caught the unfamiliar yet enticing aroma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rich, savory scent mixed with a slight crispiness in the air made her stomach grumble before she could stop it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She frowned slightly, feeling embarrassed, but Bai Zihan smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, don't hold back. You'll regret it if you don't try.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for a reply, he picked up a piece with his hands, ignoring the chopsticks on the side, and took a bite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A loud crunch echoed through the hall as the crisp outer layer shattered in his mouth, revealing the tender and juicy meat inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Hmph! What could make me feel hungry just from the smell alone?)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She, for one, didn't believe that fried chicken was just some normal dish—such simple foods were meant for poor mortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Bai Clan members and Chu Clan members, only the meat of spirit beasts and rare delicacies like Enlightenment Tea were worthy of their status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reached for a piece, still feeling a bit skeptical, but as soon as she took a bite—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmmm… \"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The outer layer was crispy and flavorful, seasoned with a mix of herbs and spices she couldn't even recognize, while the inside was soft and juicy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The contrast of textures, along with the burst of rich umami flavor, made her pause in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She mumbled, quickly taking another bite before she could even finish her sentence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Compared to the bland food in this world, a simple fried chicken is ten times better!)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan didn't even answer as she was too busy eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The meal continued, with Bai Zihan eating at a relaxed pace while Chu Ziyan, despite trying to maintain her elegance, clearly couldn't resist reaching for more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they were finished, Chu Ziyan wiped her mouth and finally leaned back with a satisfied sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I admit, this is good. I've never had anything like it before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan said, attempting to regain her elegance—though it was already too late, given how eagerly she had been devouring the fried chicken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course,\" Bai Zihan said smugly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(This is the cuisine of Earth. How could you have had anything like this?)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan would normally do something about Bai Zihan's smug face, but today, she let him have his moment—it was indeed something out of this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She also realized that fried chicken wasn't made from the meat of a spirit beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, if it were, her cultivation would have advanced at least a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just a normal chicken that mortals ate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the taste was heavenly—so much so that she craved more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just where have you been hiding something like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan asked, staring at Bai Zihan and demanding an answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem! Of course, this was entirely the creation of this young master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Sorry, whoever invented fried chicken on Earth!)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan shamelessly took the credit, though he felt a bit guilty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in this world, he was the first to introduce it, so it wasn't exactly a lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan asked skeptically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Bai Zihan was a lazy young master of the Bai Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he have found the time to create something so delicious?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"True!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan insisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmmm… is he telling the truth?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan, still unconvinced, directed her question to Luo Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is true, Lady Chu. Young Master taught the chefs how to make this fried chicken.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Qing confirmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not only this—there's also steak, something called ramen, and many other delicious foods the young master has introduced to the kitchen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Qing spoke enthusiastically, unable to hide her excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her praise was genuine—her most cherished time of the day was now when she got to eat these dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan carefully observed Luo Qing's expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging from the genuine praise in her voice, she wasn't lying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it was still hard to believe that Bai Zihan had created such out-of-this-world dishes, she was now more interested in something else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Other dishes? Are they as delicious as this fried chicken?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmmm… Then I must try them!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As you say, Lady Chu!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Qing quickly went to inform the kitchen to prepare the other dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan stared at Chu Ziyan, amazed that she still wasn't full after devouring so much fried chicken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he was smart enough not to question a lady about her appetite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon enough, an array of dishes that Bai Zihan had previously taught the cooks was placed in front of Chu Ziyan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, she began eating heartily, just as she had with the fried chicken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Chu Ziyan had finished eating, five empty plates were stacked on the table—all of them hers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Ugh! She's more gluttonous than me.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Bai Zihan, a self-proclaimed food lover, was surprised that someone as thin as Chu Ziyan had finished five plates of food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Delicious! I never thought food could be this good. Bai Zihan, you must give me one of your chefs!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan declared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After experiencing such flavors, the idea of returning to bland cultivation pills and tasteless meals seemed unbearable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, yeah, you can take one if you like,\" Bai Zihan answered straightforwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were many chefs who knew how to make these dishes, so giving one away wouldn't make much of a difference to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as she offered good compensation, most chefs would be more than willing to follow her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm! It seems like marrying you isn't such a bad idea after all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ziyan smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan suddenly regretted his decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she enjoyed herself, the less likely she was to break off the engagement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, looking at it from another perspective—if the marriage was inevitable—at least keeping her happy meant he would suffer less.\u003C\u002Fp>",1368,"2026-05-28T18:17:14.212Z","2026-06-01T04:28:34.960Z",1,"novelbin.me","2b95f83b7f83b6bcd1d1c178d16257e2dc125fb9791e366ee32b6b11a336fbb9","turns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-chapter-32","turns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-chapter-30",580,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fturns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-cover.jpg"]
