Shen Qingyi looked up at the sky, her voice a little uncertain.
When Chen An heard this, he also sensed it and realized that it seemed to be true.
However, he did not let down his guard. He was still on guard to prevent another group of demonic beasts from suddenly falling.
Seeing that his two daughters were still crying, he cast a Sleepy Time Spell on the two sisters and let them sleep quietly.
“Husband, what should we do next?”
“There are still demonic beasts wreaking havoc outside. Should we go and clean them up?”
Shen Qingyi asked Chen An for his opinion.
Chen An thought for a moment and said, “It’s true that we have to clean it up, but we have to bring them along. I’m worried about leaving them at home.”
“Yes, our family will be together,” Shen Qingyi said.
“How are your injuries?”
Chen An recalled that Shen Qingyi had just been ruthlessly punched by the Scarlet Demon Ape and could not help but ask with concern.
Shen Qingyi replied, “It’s nothing serious. After taking the Small Revitalizing Pill, my injuries are almost healed.”
“That’s good.”
After saying that, Chen An brought his family out of the house as if they were walking on thin ice. He wanted to clean up the remaining demonic beasts in the South Alley.
Otherwise, these demonic beasts would come all the way to his house sooner or later. At that time, he would still have to deal with them.
When the family walked out of the house and saw the dilapidated scene outside, their hearts immediately churned and they could not calm down for a long time.
Everywhere he looked, houses collapsed and corpses littered the ground.
Many demonic beasts were cruelly gnawing at the residents of the South Alley.
Other than the demonic beasts that had descended from the sky, within his field of vision, there was no one left alive in the entire South Alley.
“Hooo!”
Chen An took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down.
Then, he carefully brought his family along the alley and killed all the demonic beasts he encountered along the way.
During this period, when he encountered the shop whose owner was dead, he casually dug a pit and buried the shop owner, letting him rest in peace. Then, he put all the resources in the shop into his storage bag.
The person was dead. It would be a waste to leave it there.
There was no reason not to take it.
Half an hour later, Chen An and Shen Qingyi worked together to clean up all the demonic beasts in the South Alley.
The corpses of these demonic beasts were extremely valuable.
Demon cores were used to nurture the corresponding spiritual root.
Demon beast meat was edible.
However, Chen An only took the demon core and did not take the meat with him.
It was not that he did not want to bring it along, but the storage bag’s capacity was limited and he had to be selective of what he chooses to keep.
Currently, the storage bags had already been occupied by various necessities. There was not much space left.
“It’s a pity that the South Alley is filled with Qi Refinement Cultivators and no one can afford to use the storage bag. Otherwise, the meat of these demonic beasts would not have been wasted.”
Chen An looked at the demonic beast corpses all over the ground and felt that he had lost a hundred million dollars.
After that, he took out the three-meter-long Flying Ship Sword from his storage bag and said to his wives beside him, “Everyone, stand on the sword.
I’ll bring you to the sky and see what’s going on elsewhere.”
“It’s too crowded for seven people to stand on one sword. Ying’er, come to my side.”
Shen Qingyi also wielded her longsword and said to Song Huaying.
Song Huaying wanted to be with her husband, but she was not willful. She consciously walked over to Shen Qingyi.
Just like that, Chen An rode his sword and carried Wen Zhiyun, Gu Xinyue, and his two sleeping daughters. Shen Qingyi rode her sword and carried Song Huaying. The family of seven rode their swords and flew to the sky to check on the situation elsewhere.
After looking at it, other than their two sleeping daughters, as well as Song Huaying and Gu Xinyue, whose vision was not much better than that of ordinary people, the remaining three were shocked by what they saw.
In the huge Hundred Herbs Alley, other than the Samadhi Tower guarded by the Crimson Fire Gang, the rest of the place had already become ruins. There were dead and injured residents everywhere, as well as demonic beasts wolfing down their catch.
Chen An did not dare to fly on his sword for too long.
After checking the situation slightly, he quickly landed on the ground with his wife and daughter, afraid that another group of demonic beasts would suddenly fall.
“Husband, what are your plans next?”
Shen Qingyi walked down from the sword with Song Huaying and asked Chen An, who had also just walked down from the sword.
Chen An was the head of the family and the only man they could rely on. His family listened to him.
“Let’s go home first, but we can’t live in that broken house anymore. Let’s go home and dig an emergency tunnel to live in first. It’s safer than a house exposed above ground.”
Chen An thought for a moment and said.
When his wives heard this, they all felt that this was a solution.
They did as he thought.
After the group returned home, they immediately started digging the tunnel.
It was mainly Chen An and Shen Qingyi digging. The other three were in charge of assisting.
As Chen An and Shen Qingyi were both experts with cultivation at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm and were proficient in various techniques, the temporary tunnel was dug in less than an hour.
The digging was complicated. It was winding and had multiple exits and vents.
It could be described as a cunning rabbit with three burrows.
At the same time, various anti-slip, anti-seepage, anti-collapse work was also very perfect.
They spent another hour carefully repairing it.
The entire tunnel instantly became clean and tidy.
Although it was not as comfortable as the house above ground, it was much safer.
As long as they did not encounter any demonic beasts that knew how to tunnel down and monsters of the same scale as just now attacked from the sky, the family of seven could completely calmly stay in the tunnel and take refuge. They did not have to worry about their lives being threatened by demonic beasts.
After digging the tunnel,
With a thought, Chen An took out some daily necessities from his storage bag and asked his wives to tidy up the tunnel, trying their best to make it look like a home.
Otherwise, the tunnel would be too sealed and it would be a little oppressive to live in.
He did not care, but he was afraid that his two young daughters would not be able to take it.
“I’ll go to the surface and disguise all the exits and vents. I’ll be back soon.”
“Husband, be careful.”
“Yes, contact me if there’s anything.”
After briefly informing his wives, Chen An quickly left the tunnel and surfaced above ground.
It was not difficult to disguise the exits and vents.
He just needed to get some gravel and plant some weeds.
The difficult thing was that the surroundings of the cave had to be prepared for invasion alarms.
Chen An thought for a while.
In the end, he pasted special talismans on the walls of all the holes.
This way, as long as a living being wanted to enter the cave, these special talismans would be triggered, emitting all kinds of obvious sound lights, indicating that there were intruders.
After doing this,
Chen An checked carefully and felt that there were no more problems. He prepared to return to the tunnel and think about his future plans.
Just as he walked to one of the holes and was about to enter the tunnel,
He suddenly stopped in his tracks and sensed a ball of high energy slowly descending from the sky.
Its energy far exceeded that of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
It was a Golden Core Cultivator!
Chen An’s heart tightened. He raised his head and looked in the direction of the energy.
Then, what greeted him was a beautiful woman in a purple dress. She slowly floated down from the sky like a fairy. Nine snow-white furry tails grew behind her and tightly covered the bottom of her dress, not revealing her beauty at all.
“Eh?”
“What a handsome human Cultivator.”
“Grandma really didn’t lie to me.”
When the woman in the purple dress saw Chen An on the ground, her beautiful eyes lit up. She stared straight at Chen An, her eyes filled with the desire to play with him.
Chen An felt the terrifying spiritual pressure emanating from the woman in the purple dress. He saw the nine tails behind her and heard her playful words. He instantly realized that this was not an enemy he could deal with!
Therefore, he turned around and ran without saying a word.
He didn’t know where to run.
At this moment, his only thought was to stay far away from the tunnel as soon as possible and lure away the woman who he suspected to be a Nine-Tailed Fox..
