Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 126: The Unusual Second Daughter (12)

"Good, well done killing!"

"That dog deserves to die, he deserves it!"

"What's going on? How can this family be so powerful?"

"Wait! Could it be... is this female cultivator the masked heroine from before?!"

"Heroine, is that you?"

The residents in the alley were all excited, continuously cheering loudly.

As for the fate of Chen An's family, they didn't care.

They only wanted to see the high-ranking official die and vent their anger.

Among them, some speculated that Shen Qingyi was the masked heroine from some time ago, shouting loudly at her to confirm her identity.

Listening to the surrounding noise,

Shen Qingyi gradually regained her senses from the pleasure of punishing evil and became completely calm.

She looked at the residents around her, then looked at the severed body of the high-ranking official on the ground, realizing that things were not going to end well.

She looked up at Chen An beside her, showing a bewildered expression for the first time since she could remember, and asked,

"Master Chen, it seems like things have gotten out of hand. What should we do now?"

"You fly on your sword to the sky above the southern alley and watch over the residents there. If anyone tries to leave, knock them out and throw them aside."

As Chen An spoke, he squatted down and began searching the body.

Soon, he found a storage bag from the high-ranking official's corpse.

With a thought, he glanced at it and unexpectedly found it quite rich.

High-grade spirit stones: 10 pieces

Medium-grade spirit stones: 289 pieces

Low-grade spirit stones: 58 pieces

Low-level Law Weapon: several

Pills, talismans: several

Other valuable small items: several

Seeing Chen An calmly squatting on the ground and counting his spoils, Shen Qingyi couldn't help but worry and said,

"Master Chen, how do you plan to handle this? I can't figure it out."

"Just do as I said."

Chen An put the storage bag away as he spoke, stood up, and didn't tell Shen Qingyi what he was going to do later.

The method he used to erase the memories of living beings couldn't be known by anyone, not even his wife and daughters.

Otherwise, there would be endless troubles in the future.

For example, his wife and daughters would suspect every day whether their memories had been erased by their husband/father.

It would lead to a crisis of trust in the family.

Seeing that Chen An refused to say, Shen Qingyi knew that asking would be in vain.

So she quickly followed Chen An's instructions and flew on her sword to the sky above the entire southern alley, not allowing any resident to leave.

At this time, the eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, finally reacted.

She looked at the headless corpse on the ground, so scared that she was about to cry out.

Seeing this, Chen An directly used the Sleep Aid Technique and Memory Erasure Technique on her, instantly calming her down and making her forget the bloody scene she had just witnessed.

After carrying Chen Yuejian back to the courtyard of their home and casually finding a place to put her down,

Chen An quickly returned outside, a wisp of alchemical fire appearing on his fingertips, burning the body of the high-ranking official on the ground to ashes.

Afterwards, he began to deal with the residents of the southern alley, one by one using the Memory Erasure Technique to erase what they had just seen: Shen Qingyi publicly beheading the high-ranking official.

There weren't many residents in the southern alley, only about a hundred households.

In less than half a moment,

Chen An had erased the memories of all the residents in the entire southern alley.

From now on, no one will know that the executive is dead.

Only that he has disappeared.

As for how he disappeared, besides Chen An and Shen Qingyi, no one else will know.

After returning to the room.

Chen An picked up his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, who was lying on the ground asleep, and wanted to take her back to her room to rest.

Shen Qingyi followed along, with a hint of worry on her face:

"Chen Dan, what did you do to the neighbors just now? Are you sure the Red Fire Gang won't find out about it?"

Chen An had never seen Shen Qingyi so cautious before, and couldn't help but joke:

"Shen Fellow Daoist, you used to never consider the consequences when you did things. How did you become so cautious now?"

"I, I..." Shen Qingyi wanted to say something, but couldn't bring herself to say it.

The reason she became so cautious now was because she had a home and someone she cared about, and she was worried about this home and the people in it.

But expressing these things to Chen An was difficult for her.

It wasn't being spoiled, it was just feeling embarrassed.

After all, just a few months ago, she had been adamant about not getting married or having children, and just wanted to be a free-spirited person who could do whatever she wanted.

And now, there were signs that she was contradicting herself.

In a short period of time, she found it difficult to accept this.

After all, she had always been the center of attention since she was young, and her self-esteem wouldn't allow her to become humble.

At least not in the short term.

Perhaps with the passage of time, she would gradually become more understanding.

...

In the blink of an eye.

Several days had passed.

During this time.

The Red Fire Gang sent someone to investigate the disappearance of the executive.

It was an elder in the Gold Core stage.

Chen An was worried at the time, worried that he would be found out.

Fortunately, this elder in the Gold Core stage didn't have any spells that would help with the investigation.

After investigating for a while and finding nothing, they quickly left Nanxiang.

Afterwards, the Red Fire Gang sent a new executive to manage Nanxiang.

It was a female executive.

She had an average appearance, but seemed very gentle.

However, looks can be deceiving.

This female executive appeared gentle, but had a small mind and couldn't stand women who were more attractive than her, often targeting them.

Chen An had hidden his wives and concubines well at home, so she didn't see them and wasn't targeted.

But the widow who sold spiritual fruits in front of them was often picked on and suffered greatly.

In the end, unable to bear it any longer, she found a Foundation Building male cultivator who had an average appearance, or even could be considered ugly, and married him, and they moved out of Hundred Herbs Lane overnight.

On this day.

Chen An had just finished being intimate with Shen Qingyi in her room.

He held Shen Qingyi and said to her, "Shen Fellow Daoist, I should have the ability now to let you punish evil and promote justice, but at most once a month."

"But you're just a Foundation Building cultivator, how can you help me punish evil and promote justice?" Shen Qingyi pursed her lips and said.

Chen An held Shen Qingyi tighter, feeling her graceful and charming body, and said gently,

"I'm not thinking of confronting the Red Fire Gang head-on, I just have the ability to let you punish evil and promote justice without exposing yourself."

"Then how do you plan to do that?"

"You guess?"

"I don't guess, I can't guess."

After Shen Qingyi finished speaking, there was a moment of silence, as if hesitating, and then quickly said,

"Master Chen Dan, let's forget it. It's too dangerous. There's no need to put your family in danger just to satisfy my small desires."

"Shen Fellow Daoist, are you concerned about me?"

"Mm."

Shen Qingyi's voice was barely audible.

Chen An was taken aback. Did she admit that she was concerned about me?

Is it true or not?

Taking a deep breath, Chen An asked again,

"Shen Fellow Daoist, um... were you concerned about me just now?"

"Mm, I was concerned about you."

Shen Qingyi's voice was slightly louder than before.

Chen An was now certain and immediately seized this rare opportunity to say,

"Shen Fellow Daoist, let's get married."

"Okay."

Shen Qingyi replied without hesitation.

Chen An thought she must have misheard.

She agreed just like that?

What followed was an uncontrollable excitement.

This excitement lasted the whole night.

The next morning, at dawn.

Chen An sat up from the bed, breathing somewhat irregularly.

Shen Qingyi beside her was the same.

Chen An looked at the prompt message that popped up in front of her.

[Swordsmanship +1, Golden Spiritual Root Aptitude +1] x99

[Emotions +1]

[Name: Shen Qingyi]

[Cultivation: Foundation Building Fourth Level]

[Attributes: Chivalrous and Courageous, Hates Evil]

[Emotions: 1 Star (1/100)]

"It's been several months, and finally there's an emotion level."

Chen An looked at the emotion attribute bar at the bottom of the panel, feeling a hard-earned joy that made her want to cry.

From today onwards, Shen Qingyi would officially become her concubine.

A concubine with Foundation Building cultivation!

"Master Chen Dan, are we getting married tonight?"

Shen Qingyi's forehead was slightly disheveled, her breathing slightly rapid, her chest rising and falling incessantly, feeling a somewhat inexplicable nervousness.

She never thought that she would have such a day, and for a moment, she felt a hint of the shyness that only a young girl has when getting married.

"Yes, we're getting married tonight."

"Isn't it too rushed?"

Shen Qingyi still wasn't mentally prepared.

As Chen An dressed, she said, "I've been waiting for you for months, I'm not in a hurry at all."

"But Master Chen Dan, I..."

"You're still calling me Master Chen Dan?"

"My name is used to it..."

"I have to change it in the future, call me husband."

"I'm not used to it yet..."

"Even your father can call me that, what's there to not get used to?"

Chen An teased with a smile on his face.

Shen Qingyi blushed and turned away without saying a word.

Chen An patted her gently with a smile, causing ripples, then got out of bed and left the room to inform the other three wives in the other rooms that he would be marrying Shen Qingyi tonight and asked them to help prepare.

Upon hearing this news, Song Huaying congratulated Chen An excitedly, then took Gu Xinyue and went to Shen Qingyi's room to do her makeup.

As for the clothing needed for the wedding, Song Huaying had already woven it in advance, waiting for this day to come.

Wen Zhiyun took care of her daughter Chen Yike and didn't go to help.

As for Chen An, from the moment he walked out of Shen Qingyi's room, he could only enter when the wedding ceremony took place tonight.

"Yuner, you go and help, I'll take care of Xiaoyike."

"You must take good care of my precious daughter. If she gets hurt, I'll hold you responsible."

"Don't worry, Xiaoyike is as strong as a rock. Only if she breaks something, can something hurt her?"

"Hmph, that's right. My daughter is amazing."

Wen Zhiyun said proudly.

Chen An smiled and urged her to go and help in Shen Qingyi's room.

After Wen Zhiyun left, Chen An was left alone in the hall, taking care of his second daughter, Chen Yike.

His eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, was playing with her little sister with great interest.

"Xiaoyike, chase after me. If you catch up to me, I'll give you a spiritual cake to eat!"

"Mmm!"

Chen Yuejian held a piece of spiritual cake in her hand and ran around the hall with a playful smile on her face.

Chen Yike crawled after her, her big watery eyes fixed on the spiritual cake, drooling.

"Daddy, Xiaoyike crawls so fast!"

Chen Yuejian was shocked to find that her little sister, who was less than a month old, could crawl right behind her. A look of disbelief appeared on her beautiful face.

Chen An was also surprised. His second daughter was simply incredible!

"Mmm!"

Chen Yike shouted while trying her best to catch up with her sister, Chen Yuejian.

But no matter how hard she crawled, she couldn't catch up to her sister, Chen Yuejian.

She watched as her sister, Chen Yuejian, held the spiritual cake that she couldn't catch up to no matter how hard she tried.

Chen Yike became anxious!

She stood up directly without any guidance and took a moment to adjust. Then, she suddenly lifted her leg and ran, catching up to her sister, Chen Yuejian, at an astonishing speed.

[Your daughter, Chen Yike, has learned to run. Reward: 100 years of cultivation.]

[Name: Chen An]

[Cultivation: Foundation Building, 7th level]

"She...she leveled up twice?"

Chen An was dumbfounded, his whole person in shock.

Then, he looked at his second daughter who was running ahead, and he became even more dumbfounded.

She hadn't even learned to walk yet, but she already learned to run?

Simply incredible!
