Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 31: Explosive Spell

As a deafening explosion sounded.

Waves of terrifying shockwaves instantly surged out in all directions like a tide.

Wherever they went, dirt and rocks flew, and trees snapped and uprooted.

Chen An and Wen Zhiyun hadn't had time to run out of the yard's gate when they were directly blasted out.

The two collided heavily and rolled several times on the ground before coming to a stop.

"It hurts, it hurts so much!"

Chen An lay on the ground, tightly holding the back of his head with his right hand, unable to open his eyes due to the pain.

During the rolling, his head had collided with the stones on the ground several times.

Several stones were shattered.

The price was feeling like his head had also been shattered.

"You... get up quickly!"

While still in pain, Chen An suddenly heard a somewhat panicked shout from beneath him.

He looked down and discovered that Wen Zhiyun had somehow been pinned under him.

Their bodies were tightly pressed together, and he could clearly hear her breathing and heartbeat.

Just now, his head hurt so much that he didn't notice there was someone beneath him...

Thinking this, Chen An quickly got up from Wen Zhiyun.

Without speaking to her, he looked directly at the billowing smoke and ruins ahead.

The house had collapsed.

Shattered all over the ground.

Charred black.

Several terrifying cracks appeared on the ground, like bottomless abysses.

The power of this dust bomb was astonishing!

"With such terrifying destructive power, the four undercover agents from Black Iron Mountain Villa in the tunnel must have been blown to pieces, dead beyond death."

Chen An muttered as he looked at the ruins in front of him.

Wen Zhiyun stood up from the ground and patted the dust off her body.

Then, her gaze involuntarily fell on Chen An in front of her, noticing his handsome profile, and a ripple stirred in her heart.

Just now, she had been pressed to the ground by Chen An, and her mind went blank.

In her 38 years of life, it was the first time she had been in such close contact with a man.

When she recalled the feeling of being unable to move while pinned to the ground just now, an inexplicable affection welled up in her heart.

It was a strange kind of affection that made her uncontrollably and shamelessly desire to be pinned under Chen An again, unable to move.

"Husband!"

"Husband, Sister Wen!"

Voices of wives and concubines came from nearby.

Chen An followed the sound and saw Song Huaying, who was pregnant and running over, and Gu Xinyue, who seemed to be injured, running beside her.

"Yue'er, how did you injure your shoulder?"

Chen An hurriedly went to his concubine covered in ice shards, looking at her injured and bleeding shoulder, his face filled with worry.

Song Huaying said, "Just now, I don't know what happened, but there was a sudden explosion next door, and Sister Wen's house shook violently, with debris and beams falling everywhere."

"Sister Gu rushed over and used her body to protect me when I was about to be hit."

"Then, Sister Gu got injured."

As she said this, a hint of guilt flashed across Song Huaying's face.

After understanding what had happened, Chen An immediately took out the healing pill he carried with him and carefully tore off a piece of Gu Xinyue's clothes to clean and apply medicine to her wound.

Fortunately, it was nothing serious, just a scrape. Applying some medicine would quickly heal it.

[You treated your wife Gu Xinyue's wound, increasing your marital affection by 1.]

As time passed, the surrounding area gradually filled with cultivators who had come to investigate.

These cultivators had just heard the deafening explosion and purposely came to see what had happened.

When they saw the collapsed house ahead, reduced to a pile of rubble with billowing smoke, they couldn't help but feel shocked.

My god, the entire house collapsed?

What kind of divine technique could achieve this?

What exactly happened?

Soon, the people from the Bamboo Leaf Gang also arrived.

Seeing the ruins in front of them, they were equally shocked and couldn't imagine what had just happened there.

Chen An immediately stepped forward to explain.

He said that just before the incense stick burned out, four Qi Refining stage late cultivators from the Black Iron Mountain Villa infiltrated Wen Zhiyun's home.

Living next door, he saw them and lured them to his own house, where he used a large number of explosive talismans to kill them.

And their bodies are now buried in the underground passage of his house. If they weren't completely blown to pieces, they should still be able to be dug out.

After hearing Chen An's explanation, the people from the Bamboo Leaf Gang immediately went to dig open the underground passage.

In less than fifteen minutes, four charred and mutilated bodies were dug out.

After a thorough examination, it was confirmed that they were indeed cultivators from the Black Iron Mountain Villa.

"You're saying that these four infiltrators from the Black Iron Mountain Villa, with a cultivation level as high as the late Qi Refining stage, were killed by you using a large number of explosive talismans?"

One of the elders from the Bamboo Leaf Gang, who was in charge, asked with some doubt.

Chen An nodded and said, "Yes, my neighbor Wen Fellow Daoist can testify."

Upon hearing this, the elder from the Bamboo Leaf Gang looked at Wen Zhiyun.

Finally cooperating this time, Wen Zhiyun blatantly lied along with Chen An's answer, saying, "What Chen Fellow Daoist said is true."

However, the elder from the Bamboo Leaf Gang still had doubts in his heart.

Could explosive talismans really have such power, enough to kill four cultivators with a cultivation level as high as the late Qi Refining stage and completely destroy a whole house?

Perhaps even second-grade talismans wouldn't have such power, right?

Although conflicted, the elder from the Bamboo Leaf Gang did not dig deeper into the matter.

After all, every cultivator has their own secrets, and it is a taboo to ask about someone's secrets in the cultivation world.

After understanding the situation, the elder from the Bamboo Leaf Gang immediately rewarded Chen An and Wen Zhiyun in front of everyone, in order to motivate the independent cultivators present.

"By killing four infiltrators from the Black Iron Mountain Villa at the late Qi Refining stage, you can waive eight months of rent."

"But because two houses were destroyed in the process, two months of rent will be deducted as compensation, so only six months of rent can be waived."

"You two can distribute this six-month rent waiver reward as you wish, and come to the Enforcement Hall to register once it's decided."

After saying these words, the elder from the Bamboo Leaf Gang left with the four charred bodies.

At the same time, conversations broke out around.

"Six months of rent waiver, equivalent to being rewarded with 600 low-grade spirit stones. It's really enviable."

"Why am I still refining tools? It's better to find a way to expose the infiltrators from the Black Iron Mountain Villa."

"You, a mid Qi Refining stage tool refiner, don't join in the fun. Didn't you hear that these were four infiltrators from the Black Iron Mountain Villa at the late Qi Refining stage?"

"..."

Before long, these cultivators who had come to watch dispersed, and the surroundings quickly returned to calm.

During this time, many cultivators came to ask Chen An for more details, feeling that he had held back and didn't tell the whole truth, or intentionally concealed something.

Chen An couldn't be bothered to pay attention to them, but ignoring them was not an option, so he simply repeated the words he had just said to the elder from the Bamboo Leaf Gang.

After everyone had left, Wen Zhiyun immediately looked at Chen An with a puzzled expression and asked, "How did you manage to create such a big explosion just now?"

She knew that asking about someone's secrets was a taboo.

But she couldn't resist her curiosity and broke the rules just this once.

Seeing Wen Zhiyun's curious expression, Chen An knew that he had succeeded.

Because when a woman becomes curious about a man, it means that she is already halfway into his trap.

"I learned a spell before that can create explosions out of thin air with a certain incantation."

Chen An made up a story.

Unfortunately, Wen Zhiyun was completely hooked by now and couldn't tell if it was true or false. She eagerly asked, "What's the name of this spell?"

"High school chemistry."

"High what chemistry?"

"Wen Fellow Daoist, I can tell you the incantation for this spell, but as an exchange, you have to truthfully answer one question for me."

"Deal."

Wen Zhiyun readily agreed.

For her at this moment, there was nothing more important than satisfying her curiosity.

Seeing that she took the bait, Chen An leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, argon, potassium, calcium."
