The next day, before dawn.

Chen An sat up in bed and looked at the prompt messages that popped up in front of him, his face filled with a satisfied smile.

Ever since he mastered the "Flying Together" technique, the experience gained in all his attributes has increased significantly every day.

Compared to the initial experience gain speed two and a half years ago, it has increased by more than ten times.

Especially his little wife, who used to be afraid of everything, now she is not afraid of anything and often takes the initiative to come to him. Her progress has been tremendous.

"It seems that besides the "Flying Together" technique, which is worth 700 spirit stones, the other three books, "Body Tempering Technique," "Meditation Technique," and "Health Preservation Technique," also have some effect. They have greatly improved my little wife's physical fitness. The 50 spirit stones spent were worth it."

Chen An said as he looked at Song Huaying, who was sleeping next to him. He lovingly tidied up her messy hair, revealing her flawless little face, which he liked more and more as he looked at it.

"Husband..."

Song Huaying woke up in a daze and turned over, resting her head on Chen An's thigh, sticking to him like a little cat.

Seeing that she was awake, Chen An took out a bottle of blood-activating and stasis-dissipating ointment that he had prepared in advance and gently applied it to her, soothing the swelling.

"Ouch!" Song Huaying frowned her eyebrows, then pursed her lips and looked at Chen An, saying, "Husband, be gentler with your massage~"

Chen An slightly reduced the pressure and said with self-reproach, "Yinger, it's my fault. I will pay more attention in the future."

"Hmph, bad husband, I don't believe you!" Song Huaying pouted her cherry lips and complained, "You always say that, but there's always a next time. I think you're deliberately teasing me."

Chen An knew he was in the wrong, so he could only smile and not say anything.

After applying the medicine to the swollen area for a while, it was almost time.

Chen An got dressed and prepared to go to Gu Xinyue's room.

"Husband, wait."

"What's wrong?"

"Where did you put that stone from last night? I want to see..."

"Here, little troublemaker, enjoy it."

Chen An took out a delicate stone from his pocket and threw it to Song Huaying, then pinched her blushing face and left.

Just as he walked out of the room, he heard some messy sounds coming from inside Song Huaying's room.

Chen An shook his head and smiled, then walked into Gu Xinyue's room, gently applying medicine to the swelling on this icy mistress's body, and then leaving a delicate stone on the bed.

Afterwards, Chen An entered Wen Zhiyun's room next door and looked at his daughter Chen Yuejian, who was sleeping soundly, wiping the drool from the corner of her mouth.

In order to free his little wife from the chores she should be doing at night, Chen Yuejian now sleeps with Wen Zhiyun, who is unable to engage in sexual activities due to her pregnancy.

After sitting by the bed and admiring his daughter's cute sleeping posture for a while, Chen An took out a bottle of mouthwash that helps reduce swelling and placed it next to Wen Zhiyun's pillow, so she could use it to rinse and reduce the swelling when she wakes up.

To avoid complaining when she comes back in the evening, saying that she couldn't eat her favorite youtiao in the morning.

"Oh, almost forgot about this."

Chen An, who was about to leave the room, suddenly remembered that he still had a stone in his arms. He took it out and went back to put it next to the bottle of mouthwash, so that Wen Zhiyun could appreciate it when she woke up.

After all, Song Huaying and Gu Xinyue both had one, so she should have one too, to avoid being accused of favoritism.

After finishing all this.

Chen An went into the kitchen and ate something to fill his stomach, then he went out to the Treasure Pavilion to take the test for joining.

Set a small goal, to refine 150 Qi Condensation Pills on the first day.

...

The market, Treasure Pavilion.

Chen An arrived early as usual.

The Treasure Pavilion hadn't opened yet.

He looked bored at the stalls in front and saw the old cultivator and Da Bao selling spirit fish.

Suddenly, he remembered that he forgot to buy spirit fish when he went back yesterday.

So he walked over and spent 1 low-grade spirit stone to buy a large spirit fish, thinking of making soup with half of it and steaming the other half, and then having the old cultivator deliver it to his house when he closed his stall.

While waiting for the Treasure Pavilion to open for business.

Chen An had a thought and opened the information panel of his three wives to check their long-lost data.

[Name: Song Huaying]

[Attribute: Dripping Water Grace, Reciprocating Spring]

[Emotion: 3 stars (2455/2500)]

...

[Name: Gu Xinyue]

[Attribute: Pure as Jade, Unswerving Loyalty]

[Emotion: 3 stars (2023/2500)]

...

[Name: Wen Zhiyun]

[Attribute: Stunning Beauty, Excellent Aptitude]

[Emotion: 2 stars (488/500)]

"Unconsciously, the marital emotions of the three have almost leveled up, not bad."

Chen An nodded with satisfaction.

At this moment, Liu the shopkeeper creaked open the door and started today's business.

Chen An chatted with him for a few moments, and then followed him into an alchemy room.

In the alchemy room, there were a total of 2200 materials for refining Qi Condensation Pills.

Chen An needed to use these limited materials to refine 2000 Qi Condensation Pills.

To achieve this goal, the success rate of pill formation had to be at least above the ninth level.

Regarding this, Chen An was somewhat confident.

After all, the Qi Condensation Pill is only a first-grade pill, and it is not difficult to maintain a success rate of nine or more layers of pill formation under the impact of second-grade alchemy techniques.

The difficulty lies in how to maintain this success rate while considering the efficiency of alchemy.

"Hoo~"

Chen An took a deep breath and calmed his mind slightly.

Afterwards, he didn't waste any more time and immediately walked to the pill furnace and sat down, starting his alchemy career.

No eating or drinking.

No sleeping.

From the early morning until the afternoon.

Finally, he managed to complete the goal of the first day.

A total of 160 materials were consumed, and 150 Qi Condensation Pills were successfully refined.

Both the efficiency and the success rate far exceeded the testing standards.

"It seems that my alchemy strength is stronger than I imagined."

"Joining the Treasure Pavilion will be stable."

Chen An looked at the Qi Condensation Pills in front of him and felt an unprecedented confidence.

After tidying up the alchemy room, he left with the 150 Qi Condensation Pills and the surveillance stone, and went straight to Liu's shopkeeper.

"Liu's shopkeeper, today's task is completed. A total of 160 materials were consumed, and 150 Qi Condensation Pills were successfully refined. Please verify it with the surveillance stone."

"Leave it with me for now. I'll have Li, the steward, verify it later."

Saying that, Liu's shopkeeper smiled and said, "Master Chen, based on the results of your first day, can I congratulate you in advance?"

"No, please don't jinx me."

"What do you mean by jinxing you?"

Liu's shopkeeper looked puzzled.

Chen An didn't explain.

People from different eras will always have a language barrier.

"Master Chen, congratulations on completing the task!"

Pan Hui walked over with a smile.

She was here to bring pastries to Shen Qingyi and was eating with her at the table in front.

She learned from Liu's shopkeeper last night that Chen An was applying to join the Treasure Pavilion and had participated in a referral test. Just now, she saw Chen An completing the goal of the first day, so she came over to congratulate him.

"Thank you."

Chen An politely replied.

Pan Hui invited, "Master Chen, I made a large box of spirit cakes for Qingyi. Why don't you go over and try them too? They're delicious."

Chen An glanced at Shen Qingyi over there and smiled at Pan Hui, "Since Fellow Daoist Pan said so, then I won't be polite. When I come over tomorrow, I'll bring some pastries made by my wives at home for you to try."

"Then I'll be waiting."

Pan Hui grabbed Chen An's sleeve and led him towards Shen Qingyi without any concept of gender boundaries, whether intentionally or genuinely indifferent.

Chen An sat down next to Shen Qingyi and smiled, saying, "Shen Fellow Daoist, do you mind if I sit here?"

"Sit wherever you like."

Shen Qingyi spoke while eating, and then picked up a piece of spiritual cake and handed it to Chen An, saying, "These spiritual cakes made by Pan Hui are quite delicious. Chen Dan Shi, you should try them."

"You also have no concept of gender boundaries?"

Chen An was somewhat surprised by Shen Qingyi's actions, but he didn't show too much of it. He naturally reached out and took the spiritual cake she handed him, putting it in his mouth and taking a bite.

Surprisingly, it tasted really good.

It was on par with the spiritual cake he bought for his daughter at the pastry shop yesterday.

"Pan Fellow Daoist, your spiritual cakes are really good. They taste even better than the ones from the pastry shop. I think you should open a pastry shop in the market. I'm sure it would be a hit."

Chen An exaggeratedly praised.

Pan Hui was very happy to hear this, her eyes narrowing into slits as she smiled and said, "Chen Dan Shi, you're not kidding. I really plan to open a pastry shop in the market. When I do, you must come and visit often."

"Definitely."

Chen An replied with a smile.

With that, he picked up a piece of purple spiritual cake and handed it to Shen Qingyi, saying, "Shen Fellow Daoist, I find this color to be delicious. You should try it."

Shen Qingyi reached out and took the spiritual cake, putting it directly into her mouth and nodding, "Hmm, it does taste slightly better."

Seeing Shen Qingyi actually eat the spiritual cake he handed her, Chen An couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Huh, she really doesn't care about gender boundaries.

Perhaps, I can take a different approach, first treat her as a brother, and then coax her into becoming my wife.

For example...

Chen An, I treat you as a brother, and you actually want to have sex with me?

Qingyi, how could you think that way about me? I just want to have a child with you to better maintain our brotherly relationship.

Hmm, that's possible.

Chen An looked at Shen Qingyi beside him, thinking about all sorts of things in his mind.

At this moment, a flattering voice from the entrance, along with a deep male voice, came from outside.

"Master Zhu, why didn't you let me know when you were coming? I would have personally welcomed you."

"Come, come, Master Zhu, please come in and sit here. Let me brew a pot of good tea for you."

"No need, I'm just here to find someone."

...

Chen An followed the voice and saw a man dressed in white martial attire, accompanied by several Bamboo Leaf Gang cultivators, walking towards him.

He recognized this man in white clothes as the leader of the Bamboo Leaf Gang, Zhu Tiancheng.

A powerful cultivator with a cultivation level of Foundation Building Stage Three.
