Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 228: Xiao Qingyue's Threat (12)

The next morning, the sky was dimly lit.

Chen An, full of energy, had not slept all night.

Jiu Ji was very weak and couldn't withstand the turmoil.

Gu Xinyue and Shen Qingyi were pregnant again, and they couldn't be touched at all.

In this situation, it was only Song Huaying and Wen Zhiyun who had to endure.

Inside the room.

On the bed.

Wen Zhiyun lay on the bed, not wanting to move, just panting.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She couldn't help but slap Chen An's thigh with a pouty face, complaining in a coquettish manner:

"You're in the Soul Formation stage, but I'm just a Foundation Building cultivator two realms below you. Don't you know how to be considerate?"

"Here we go again. You had no objections when we were doing it, but once it's done, you start pretending to be unhappy. Are you being willful?"

Chen An couldn't help but comment silently. He was glad that their second daughter didn't inherit her mother's willfulness, otherwise it would be difficult to maintain a good father-daughter relationship.

"What do you mean by willful? I was considering your feelings! I deliberately endured it until you were comfortable before expressing my opinions!" Wen Zhiyun retorted discontentedly. "Since you miss me so much, if I'm not comfortable next time we do it, I'll just kick you away!"

"My mistake, my mistake. Don't be angry."

Chen An could be flexible. He hugged Wen Zhiyun into his arms with a smile, comforting her and whispering sweet words in her ear.

Wen Zhiyun was initially angry, but she couldn't resist the sweet words of a scumbag. She forgave him after a few seconds, not wanting to argue with him.

But then she thought again, it seemed a bit wasteful to just let it go like this.

So she decided to take advantage of the situation and said:

"Chen, from now on, you're not allowed to force me to play those kinky games. You can only enjoy them if I'm willing. Otherwise, I won't serve you anymore. You can go play with other women every day."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

Chen An readily agreed without thinking, smiling from ear to ear.

Agreeing is one thing, whether he can actually do it is another. It doesn't matter.

Lies flowed from his mouth, a trademark of a scumbag. Otherwise, how could he deceive so many beautiful fairies into becoming his concubines?

A man's mouth is as deceitful as a ghost.

...

After leaving Wen Zhiyun's room.

Chen An, with nothing to do, planned to go and have some fun with Song Huaying.

Unfortunately, his flirtatious and delicate wife, Song Huaying, had been exhausted by last night's activities and still hadn't fully recovered.

When she saw Chen An come in and mention being intimate, she pitifully said:

"Husband, can we do it tomorrow?"

"Alright, you rest well. I'll come find you tomorrow."

Chen An wasn't a devil. He knew how to be considerate to his wives and didn't force them.

Seeing that he couldn't be intimate with any of his wives, he returned to his room and sat cross-legged on the bed, taking out the spirit stones he had mooched from Ning Xian'er to refine and cultivate.

But before he had practiced for long, shouts came from outside.

"Elder Chen, are you in the Cave Mansion?"

"I am Elder Dai from the Law Enforcement Hall. There's something that requires your cooperation for investigation in the Law Enforcement Hall!"

The sound of shouting filled with spiritual power and strong penetrating force echoed through the Cave Mansion, and everyone inside heard it.

Chen An walked out of the room upon hearing the sound.

His wives and concubines followed closely, looking at him with worried faces.

"Husband, why would the Law Enforcement Hall's people come to find you for no reason?" Shen Qingyi asked in confusion.

Chen An was also unsure and speculated, "It should be about the undercover agent. Perhaps the Law Enforcement Hall has discovered something and needs me to cooperate with the investigation."

"Husband, please be careful," Gu Xinyue said with a slightly furrowed brow, expressing her concern.

Chen An smiled and said, "Don't worry, with my current strength, I can walk sideways in the Heaven and Earth Sect. There's nothing to worry about."

"Alright, everyone should go about their business. Don't worry too much. I'll be back soon."

"Yes, when I come back, I'll bring you all gifts. It's been a while since I last bought you gifts."

After saying that, Chen An kissed each of his eight wives and daughters on the face before using the Earth Escape Technique to leave the Cave Mansion.

Outside the Cave Mansion, Chen An saw five disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall.

The leader was a steward with a cultivation level of the ninth layer of the Gold Core stage.

The remaining four were disciples in the later stage of the Foundation Building stage.

Their overall strength was quite good. Summoning Chen An, who only had the eighth layer of the Foundation Building stage cultivation on the surface and was known as an alchemist, was like using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken.

"Steward Dai, may I ask what the Law Enforcement Hall needs me to cooperate with in the investigation?" Chen An asked the rough-looking man in front of him with a tone that was not respectful but still polite.

Steward Dai explained politely, "Chen, it's like this. We have learned that you sold many Law Weapons in the Refining Hall recently and exchanged them for a large amount of high-grade spirit stones. Because it is a special period now, we need to investigate every large sum of spirit stone flow, so we need your cooperation in the investigation."

After hearing this, Chen An understood that they were afraid of people transferring their assets and running away.

After all, the Heaven and Earth Sect was currently blocked by the Mysterious Yellow Sect, and a great battle between the two sects could break out at any time.

Many well-informed people had recently received news and learned that the Mysterious Yellow Sect had a Soul Formation expert. Instantly, they lost confidence in the Heaven and Earth Sect and wanted to escape from it.

Presumably, the higher-ups of the Heaven and Earth Sect also saw this situation and made corresponding measures.

After a brief understanding, Chen An obediently followed the five members of the Law Enforcement Hall to cooperate with their investigation.

However, when he flew a distance on the Law Enforcement Hall's small flying boat, he realized that the direction of the flight was not towards the Law Enforcement Hall, but towards the Cave Mansion where the Sect Master and the Holy Maiden were.

He was puzzled and questioned, "Steward Dai, weren't we supposed to cooperate with the Law Enforcement Hall's investigation? Why are we going towards the Cave Mansion?"

"Chen, it's like this. This time, the Sect Master specifically instructed us to take you to her Cave Mansion for this cooperative investigation. As for how to cooperate, we are not quite sure either," Steward Dai explained politely.

"I see," Chen An was only slightly puzzled and didn't dwell on it too much. After all, he was invincible in the Mountain and Sea Domain now and was not afraid of any danger.

Whether it was the Sect Master or the Elders, he didn't care about any of them. Just one glance from him could kill them.

After a moment, they arrived at the Cave Mansion.

The flying boat arrived at the Heavenly Palace.

Chen An followed the steward and stopped in front of Xiao Qingyue's Cave Mansion, without going in directly.

"Steward Chen, the Sect Master said to bring you to the back and let you go in on your own. We won't disturb you," the steward said before leaving with his four disciples.

Chen An ignored them and walked into Xiao Qingyue's Cave Mansion.

His divine sense sensed that Xiao Qingyue was sitting in the hall, so he walked towards her calmly.

Before long, he saw Xiao Qingyue's figure at a tea table.

At this moment, Xiao Qingyue was not dressed in the majestic palace attire as usual, but in a plain white dress, looking very homely.

There were no accessories on her body, giving a simple and down-to-earth feeling.

However, this kind of dressing did not reduce the imposing aura emanating from her, still exuding a powerful presence.

If Chen An was still at the Gold Core cultivation level when he first joined the Heaven and Earth Sect, he would probably be suppressed by the invisible pressure emanating from Xiao Qingyue.

Worse, he might even be unable to breathe under the pressure.

However, times have changed.

Chen An is now a peak Soul Formation cultivator standing at the pinnacle of the Mountain and Sea Domain.

The pressure from a mere Nascent Soul cultivator is like nothing to him.

Therefore, he does not have much awe for Xiao Qingyue and directly asks, "May I ask what the Sect Master wants with me?"

He doesn't believe that Xiao Qingyue is targeting him just because he sold some Law Weapons to the Refining Hall in exchange for some spirit stones.

There must be some other deeper and unknown reasons.

Seeing Chen An calmly speaking like this, Xiao Qingyue subtly raised her eyebrows, feeling a sense of surprise in her heart.

What's going on?

Why can a mere Foundation Building cultivator withstand the Nascent Soul pressure deliberately released by me?

Shouldn't he be weak in the legs and pale-faced?

Xiao Qingyue couldn't figure out why her show of power had failed.

But now is not the time to dwell on this.

She picked up the tea cup in front of her, took a sip of the warm flower tea, and without raising her elegant gaze, she coldly said, "Steward Chen, sit down and have a cup of tea. Let's talk slowly."

What to talk about?

Is it not a riddle that people will die if they can't solve it?

Chen An complained in his mind, but still sat down opposite Xiao Qingyue.

He casually picked up the teapot in front of him and poured himself a cup of warm flower tea.

He took a sip, and it tasted good. Besides the aroma of the tea, there was also a mysterious fragrance of a young girl.

Moreover, it had the effect of refreshing the mind and nurturing the spirit.

It can only be said that the Sect Master of the Heaven and Earth Sect has good things.

Even drinking tea can be so enjoyable.

Chen An thought to himself that since Xiao Qingyue can have this kind of tea, then Ning Xian'er, who is her disciple, must also have it. When there is a chance, he should ask Ning Xian'er for some of this tea and bring it home for his wives and daughters to taste.

Seeing Chen An's skillful tea pouring and drinking, Xiao Qingyue was stunned, obviously not expecting him to be so audacious.

After a moment of realization, she slightly furrowed her eyebrows and said unhappily, "Chen steward, the teacup you're drinking from was just used by the Holy Maiden not long ago and hasn't been washed yet. Could you please change to a different cup?"

This is the teacup Ning Xian'er just drank from?

After hearing this, Chen An suddenly understood and thought to himself, no wonder he could sense a hint of a young girl's fragrance when he was drinking earlier. It turns out it was the scent from Ning Xian'er's lips.

Even just the lingering lip fragrance on the teacup was so wonderful, he wondered what it would taste like to truly kiss her cherry lips.

It must be very sweet, right?

Chen An's thoughts drifted away, completely focused on Ning Xian'er, his mind filled with her rosy and tender cherry-like lips.

Seeing that Chen An didn't respond to her words and was instead lost in thought while holding the teacup, Xiao Qingyue's calm demeanor suddenly became unsettled, feeling somewhat annoyed.

She completely dropped her elegant and dignified ladylike face, her expression turning gloomy as she said, "Chen Dan, last night I looked at the account book that Elder Qi Refining sent. I found that you suddenly sold a large number of Law Weapons during that period and exchanged them for a huge amount of high-grade spirit stones."

"Could you please explain where you got so many Law Weapons and why you exchanged them for so many spirit stones?"

"Your abnormal behavior easily makes people suspect that you are an undercover agent planted by the Mysterious Yellow Sect."

As she said these last words, Xiao Qingyue elegantly raised her phoenix-like eyes, staring directly into Chen An's eyes with a strong sense of oppression.

Chen An regained his senses upon hearing her voice, completely unaffected by Xiao Qingyue's pressure, and calmly said, "Lady Sect Master, your words are mistaken. If I were an undercover agent, I wouldn't have bothered researching and finding a cure for the water poisoning incident."

These words hit the nail on the head, directly dispelling any suspicion that he was an undercover agent.

Xiao Qingyue smiled, took another sip of the warm flower tea, her voice carrying a hint of laughter but sounding chilling, "Of course, I know that Steward Chen is not an undercover agent. But I have a way to turn you into one, to imprison you in the dungeon of the Law Enforcement Hall, never to see the light of day."

"What do you mean by that, Lady Sect Master?"

Chen An frowned slightly, not understanding why Xiao Qingyue suddenly said such things for no reason.

He thought, could it be because he had previously refused to accept the position of Elder in the Pill Refining Hall that she sent, and offended her by not joining her camp, and now she had caught him by the short hairs and was seeking revenge?

Just as he was thinking this, Xiao Qingyue spoke again.

She didn't beat around the bush or intentionally say something profound to make people guess, but straightforwardly said, "Steward Chen, I have already warned you before, not to let your appearance deceive you into having any inappropriate thoughts about the Holy Maiden."

"I remember you agreed at that time."

"However, yesterday you went against your word and spent over an hour alone with the Holy Maiden. What were you trying to do?"

"I hope you can recognize your own identity. You are nothing more than a Foundation Building ant with a bit of alchemy strength and a somewhat handsome appearance. You are not worthy of the exalted Holy Maiden. Don't forget that you're trying to eat above your station."

"Otherwise, what I just said was not a joke."

"Even if you had merits in solving the water poisoning incident before, I would still send you to the dungeon of the Law Enforcement Hall, imprisoning you and causing your wife and children to be separated forever, never to see the light of day!"

When Xiao Qingyue's last words fell, the atmosphere in the entire Cave Mansion instantly changed.

From the previous silence and tranquility, it suddenly became cold and chilling, with a hint of murderous intent.

The coldness was emanating from Xiao Qingyue.

And the faint but discernible murderous intent was emanating from Chen An.
