“Good, good kill!”
“That dog deserves to die. He deserves to die!”
“What’s going on? Why is this family so strong?”
“Wait! Could it be that… this female Cultivator is the masked heroine from before?!”
“Heroine, is that you?”
The residents in the alley were all very excited and kept cheering.
As for what would happen to Chen An’s family, they did not care.
They only wanted to see Steward Gao die and vent their anger.
Among them, some people guessed that Shen Qingyi was the masked heroine from some time ago. They shouted at her to confirm her identity.
Listening to the surrounding commotion,
Shen Qingyi gradually recovered from the pleasure of punishing evil and completely calmed down.
She looked at the surrounding residents and then at Steward Gao’s decapitated corpse on the ground. She realized that things would not end well.
She looked up at Chen An and for the first time in her memory, she looked at a loss.
“Alchemist Chen, this matter seems to have blown up. What should we do now?”
“Fly to the sky above the South Alley on your sword. Help me keep an eye on the residents in the South Alley and don’t let them leave. If someone wants to leave, knock them out and throw them aside.”
As Chen An spoke, he squatted down and began to search the corpse.
Soon, he took out a storage bag from Steward Gao’s corpse.
With a thought, he took a look and was surprised to find that he was quite rich.
High-grade spirit stone: 10 pieces
Medium Spiritual Stones: 289
Low-grade spirit stone: 58 pieces
Low-level artifacts: A few
Pills and Talismans: A few
Other small items of value: several
Seeing that Chen An was calmly squatting on the ground and counting the spoils of war, Shen Qingyi could not help but worry.
“Alchemist Chen, how do you want to end this? I don’t understand.”
“Just do it.”
As Chen An spoke, he put his storage bag into his pocket and stood up. He did not tell Shen Qingyi what he would do later.
He could not let anyone know that he could erase the memories of living beings, not even his wife and daughter.
Otherwise, there would be endless trouble in the future.
For example, his wives and daughter would wonder every day if some of their memories had been erased by their husband/father.
This can lead to such a crisis of trust in the family.
Seeing that Chen An was unwilling to tell her, Shen Qingyi knew that it was useless for her to keep asking.
Hence, she quickly followed Chen An’s instructions and rode her sword to the sky above the entire South Alley, not allowing any residents to leave.
At this moment, Chen Yuejian finally reacted.
She looked at the headless corpse on the ground and was so afraid that she opened her mouth to cry.
Upon seeing this, Chen An immediately cast the ‘Sleepy Time Spell’ and “Amnesia Technique” on her, instantly calming her down and making her forget the bloody scene she had just seen.
After carrying Chen Yuejian home, he casually found a space on the ground and left her there.
Chen An quickly returned to the outside of the house. A wisp of alchemic fire appeared on his fingertip and burned Steward Gao’s corpse on the ground.
After that, he began to target the residents of the South Alley. One by one, he used the ‘Amnesia Technique’ to eliminate the scene they had just seen, the scene of Shen Qingyi killing Steward Gao in public.
There were not many residents in the South Alley, only about a hundred families.
In less than half an hour, Chen An erased the memories of all the residents in the South Alley.
From now on, no one would know that Steward Gao was dead.
They only knew that he was missing.
As for how he disappeared, other than Chen An and Shen Qingyi, no one else knew.
After returning to the house, Chen An picked up his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, who was lying on the ground and sleeping soundly. He wanted to send her back to her room to rest.
Shen Qingyi followed at the side with a worried expression.
“Alchemist Chen, what did you do to your neighbors just now? Are you sure that the Crimson Fire Gang won’t find out?”
This was the first time Chen An had seen such a timid Shen Qingyi. He could not help but tease,
“Fellow Cultivator Shen, you never thought about the consequences before. How did you become so cautious?”
“I, I’m…”
Shen Qingyi wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in her throat.
The reason why she had become so timid was because she now had a family and someone she cared about. She was worried about this family.
And it was very difficult for her to express these things in front of Chen An.
It wasn’t arrogance, but she felt very embarrassed.
After all, a few months ago, she had said that she did not want to get married or have children. She only wanted to be free and do whatever she wanted.
And now, there were already signs of her eating her words.
For the time being, she found it difficult to accept this.
After all, she had been surrounded by people since she was young. The self-esteem she had developed since she was young did not allow her to become humble.
At least not for the time being.
Perhaps as time passed, it would slowly become clearer.
Several days passed.
During this period, the Crimson Fire Gang had sent someone to investigate Steward Gao’s disappearance.
It was a Golden Core elder.
At that time, Chen An was a little worried that he would be found out.
Fortunately, this Golden Core elder did not know any techniques that could help with the investigation.
After investigating for a long time and finding nothing, he quickly left the South Alley with his men.
After that, the Crimson Fire Gang sent a new steward to manage the South Alley.
It was a female manager. She looked ordinary, but she looked very gentle.
However, one could not judge a book by its cover.
This female manager only looked gentle, but she was pitifully petty. She could not bear to see a woman prettier than her and often targeted her.
Chen An hid his wives very well. She did not see them, so they were not targeted.
On the other hand, the widow who sold spirit fruits at the front was often picked on, and she was indescribably miserable.
In the end, she really couldn’t take it anymore. She retreated and found a Foundation Establishment male Cultivator who looked very ordinary and could even be said to be ugly to marry. And moved out of Hundred Herbs Alley overnight.
On this day, Chen An had just finished cuddling in Shen Qingyi’s room.
He hugged her and said to her, “Fellow Cultivator Shen, I should have the ability to let you punish evil now, but once a month at most.”
“But you’re only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. How are you going to help me?” Shen Qingyi pursed her lips.
Chen An hugged Shen Qingyi tightly and felt her graceful body. He said gently,
“I’m not thinking of fighting the Crimson Fire Gang head-on. I just have the ability to let you punish evil and not expose yourself.”
“Then how are you going to do it?”
Guess?”
“I don’t know. I can’t guess.”
Shen Qingyi was silent for a moment as if she was hesitating. Then, she quickly said:
“Alchemist Chen, forget it. It’s too dangerous. There’s no need to put your family in danger just to satisfy my small selfish desires.”
“Fellow Cultivator Shen, are you concerned about me?”
“Yes.”
Shen Qingyi’s voice was almost inaudible.
Chen An was stunned for a moment. She admitted that she cared about me?
Is she serious?
After calming down, Chen An asked again,
“Fellow Cultivator Shen, um… were you concerned about me just now?”
“Yes, I care about you.”
Shen Qingyi’s voice was a little louder than before.
Chen An was certain now. He immediately seized this only chance and said,
“Fellow Cultivator Shen, let’s get married.”
“Okay.”
Shen Qingyi said without hesitation.
Chen An thought that he had heard wrongly. She agreed just like that?
What followed was an uncontrollable excitement.
This excitement lasted the entire night.
The next morning, Chen An sat up from the bed, his breathing a little chaotic.
Shen Qingyi was the same.
Chen An looked at the notification that popped up in front of him.
[Sword Technique+1, Metal-type Spiritual Root Aptitude+1] X99
[ Relationship+1]
[Name: Shen Qingyi|
[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Level 4]
[Attribute: Heroic and righteous, Abhorring evil]
[Relationship: 1 star (1/100)]
It’s been a few months. There’s finally a Relationship level.”
Chen An looked at the emotion attribute pane at the bottom of the interface and felt like crying tears of joy.
From today onwards, Shen Qingyi will officially become his concubine.
A concubine with Foundation Establishment cultivation!
“Alchemist Chen, are we getting married tonight?”
The hair on Shen Qingyi’s forehead was slightly messy, and her breathing was slightly hurried. Her chest kept rising and falling, and she felt inexplicably nervous.
She had never thought that such a day would really come for her. For a moment, she actually felt a hint of shyness that only a young girl would have when she got married.
“Yes, we’ll get married tonight.”
“Isn’t it too rushed?”
Shen Qingyi was still not mentally prepared.
Chen An said as he put on his clothes, “I’ve been waiting for you for a few months. I’m not in a hurry at all.”
“But Alchemist Chen, I…”
“You’re still calling me Alchemist Chen?”
“I’m used to calling you that…”
“You have to change it in the future. You have to call me Husband.”
“I’m still not used to it…”
“You can even call me Daddy. What’s wrong with calling me Husband?”
Chen An teased with a smile.
Shen Qingyi blushed and chose to turn around without saying anything.
Chen An smiled and patted her. Then, he got out of bed and left the room. He went to tell his three wives in the other rooms that he was going to get married to Shen Qingyi tonight and asked them to help prepare.
After hearing this news, Song Huaying congratulated Chen An excitedly. Then, she pulled Gu Xinyue to Shen Qingyi’s room to put on makeup for this bride.
As for the clothes needed for the wedding, Song Huaying had already tailored them in advance and was waiting for this day to come.
Wen Zhiyun had to take care of her daughter, Chen Yi Ke, so she didn’t help.
As for Chen An, from the moment he walked out of Shen Qingyi’s room, he could only wait until tonight’s wedding ceremony before entering.
“Yun’er, go and help too. I’ll take care of Little Yi Ke.”
“You have to take good care of my precious daughter. If she gets injured anywhere, 1’11 blame you.”
“Don’t worry. Little Yi Ke is as sturdy as a rock. Only she can break things. What can hurt her?”
“Hmph, that’s true. The daughter I gave birth to is amazing.”
Wen Zhiyun said proudly.
Chen An smiled and urged her to hurry to Shen Qingyi’s room to help.
After Wen Zhiyun left, Chen An took care of his second daughter, Chen Yi Ke, alone in the hall.
As for his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, she was teasing her younger sister with interest.
“Little Yi Ke, chase after me. If you catch up to me, I’ll give you a spirit cake to eat!”
“What the heck!”
Chen Yuejian held a spirit cake in her hand and ran around the hall with a smile.
Chen Yi Ke chased after her all the way. Her big watery eyes kept staring at the spirit cake, and her mouth was watering.
“Father, Little Yi Ke is crawling so quickly!”
Chen Yuejian was shocked to discover that his sister, who was less than a month old, could actually follow him closely. Her beautiful face was instantly filled with disbelief.
Chen An was also shocked when he saw this. This second daughter was simply heaven-defying!
“What the heck!”
As Chen Yi Ke shouted, she tried her best to chase after her sister, Chen Yuejian.
However, no matter how she crawled, she could not catch up to Chen Yuejian.
She looked at the spirit cake in Chen Yuejian’s hand that she could not catch up to no matter how hard she tried.
Chen Yi Ke was anxious! She got up and stood on her own.
After adapting, she suddenly raised her leg and ran, catching up to her sister, Chen Yuejian, at an extremely shocking speed.
[Your daughter, Chen Yi Ke, has learned how to run. Reward: 100 years of Cultivation. ]
[Name: Chen An I
[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Level 7]
“Upgraded… two levels in a row?”
Chen An was dumbfounded.
Then, he looked at his second daughter, who was running wildly in front of him, and was instantly even more dumbfounded.
She had learned how to run before he even learned how to walk?
It was simply heaven-defying!
