After the people from the Bamboo Leaf Gang left, the residents in the core area quickly dispersed.
Chen An was still kneading Wen Zhiyun’s hand. He smiled and said,
“Let’s go back to the house for breakfast.”
“Ok.”
Wen Zhiyun responded softly. Her voice sounded gentler than ever.
When the two of them returned to the house, Gu Xinyue had already made breakfast.
She made spirit chicken porridge, soy milk, and fried dough sticks.
They were all placed on the dining table in the hall.
It was still a little cold in the morning, and it was steaming hot. It looked delicious.
“Husband, quickly sit down and drink the spirit chicken porridge that Sister Gu personally cooked. It’s delicious.”
“Sister Wen, take a seat too.”
Seeing the two of them return, Song Huaying, who was sitting at the dining table feeding her daughter porridge, immediately said with a sweet smile.
Gu Xinyue, who was at the side, was relatively quiet. She silently took out two porcelain bowls and scooped a bowl of spirit chicken porridge for Chen An and Wen Zhiyun.
Chen An took a bite of the spirit chicken porridge.
The porridge was moderately soft and hard.
The taste was sweet.
It was very delicious.
He took another bite of the spirit chicken in the porridge and could not help but frown slightly.
It didn’t taste too good.
The meat tasted very dry.
It was not as delicious and tender as he had imagined.
It wasn’t that Gu Xinyue didn’t do well, but this spirit chicken wasn’t old enough.
If he could raise it for two and a half years, the taste of this spirit chicken would definitely be much better.
“Husband, does it taste bad?”
Seeing Chen An suddenly frown, Gu Xinyue couldn’t help but ask in disappointment.
Chen An smiled and said, “No, I’ve never eaten such delicious spirit chicken porridge. Yue’er’s culinary skills have improved again.”
“If you like it, I’ll make it for you every day in the future.”
Gu Xinyue could not hide her joy. A faint smile appeared on her exquisite face.
[You praised your wife, Gu Xinyue, for her improved culinary skills. Couple Relationship +1.]
Chen An glanced at the notification.
Then, his gaze swept across his three wives and concubines one after another, and he fell into deep thought.
His wife, Song Huaying, was smart and capable. She was good at reading people’s expressions and was an expert at internal affairs. She could help him better his family relationship.
Ice Queen concubine, Gu Xinyue, was honest and hardworking. She basically took care of all the housework at home. As long as she was around, he did not have to worry about the cleanliness of the house, and the three meals a day.
The hard-to-get concubine, Wen Zhiyun, was an expert in childcare. She knew how to take care of children. Then… then nothing.
Chen An felt that this would not work.
Wen Zhiyun was an Immortal Master at the eighth level of Qi Refinement. Her contribution to the family should not be so little.
She could take on more.
It was necessary to further develop her.
For example, she had a Fire-type Spiritual Root and was born to refine pills.
Perhaps he could teach her how to refine pills and let her become an Alchemist.
This way, the family’s income could at least double in the future.
Just as Chen An was thinking about this, his daughter sitting opposite him suddenly shouted,
“Stick! Stick! Stick!”
Chen Yuejian looked at the fried dough stick in front of her and her small mouth was watering. She kept trying her best to reach forward with her small hands, wanting to get the fried dough stick in her hands.
Unfortunately, her hand was too short and she could not reach it. She was so anxious that she frowned.
Song Huaying removed her small hand and pinched her chubby round face.
“Little Yuejian, you’re still young and can’t eat fried food. You have to eat porridge obediently.”
“Stick! Stick! Stick!”
Chen Yuejian was very persistent and wanted to eat fried dough sticks. She was so anxious that she struggled in her mother’s arms.
Upon seeing this, Song Huaying hit her little hand symbolically and reprimanded, “If you continue to be so disobedient, Mother won’t want you anymore!”
It was unknown if Chen Yuejian didn’t understand or didn’t listen. Seeing that her mother didn’t allow it, she immediately looked at her father with a crying expression. She frowned and shouted at her father,
“Father… Father!”
“I… I want a… I want a piece!”
“Eat!”
Chen An and his three wives were shocked when they heard her stutter.
‘What’s the situation?’
Little Yuejian actually knew how to speak?
Then, a wave of joy surged into his heart.
Song Huaying turned her daughter to face him and said happily,
“Little Yuejian, quick, call Mother.”
“Mother! Mother! I want a stick! Eat it!
“Husband, Little Yuejian calls me Mother!”
“See you, Little Yuejian. Call me Mother Wen.”
Wen… Mother Wen!”
“This is Mother Gu. Call her Mother Gu.”
“Mother Gu!
“Wow, Little Yuejian is so smart!”
Song Huaying was very excited to be called Mother by her daughter. Wen Zhiyun also went over and asked Little Yuejian to call her Mother Wen. At the same time, she also asked her to call Gu Xinyue Mother Gu. Gu Xinyue was not as excited as the other two women, but she was also very happy.
The only person who did not react was Chen An, who was sitting at the head of the table.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t excited.
Instead, his attention was completely taken by the notification in front of him.
[Your daughter, Chen Yuejian, has learned to speak. You are rewarded with a top-grade Qi Gathering Pill.]
It was actually a top-grade Qi Gathering Pill!
Chen An lowered his head and looked at the purple pill that appeared out of thin air in his hand. He was extremely excited.
Last time, it was just an ordinary Qi Gathering Pill that directly made him break through from the fifth level of Qi Refining to the sixth level!
How much cultivation would it increase if it was a top-grade Qi Gathering Pill?
He was filled with anticipation. After getting up and kissing his daughter Chen Yuejian’s little face, he immediately couldn’t wait to enter the alchemy room and close the door. He wanted to eat the top-grade Qi Gathering Pill in his hand.
He arrived at the alchemy room.
He opened the window.
Ventilation.
Let the fresh air outside pour in.
Then, he opened his mouth and ate the pill in his hand.
Then, just like last time, in an instant, the blood vessels in his entire body expanded and his pores enlarged. He sucked the surrounding spiritual qi in the air into his body and refined it, turning it into spiritual qi to store in his body.
After about an incense stick of time.
Chen An slowly opened his eyes.
After sensing the change in his body, he could not help but reveal a gratified smile.
He had finally broken through.
From the sixth level of Qi Refining to the seventh level.
Moreover, he was only one step away from the eighth level of Qi Refining!
He had officially stepped into the late-stage Qi Refining realm!
He had become a powerful person in the core area!
“No more than half a year at most. I want to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining with my own efforts!”
Chen An confidently set such a goal for himself.
He left the alchemy room.
They arrived at the hall.
The cutlery on the table had been cleaned up.
The three wives and concubines brought chairs over and sat together. They surrounded the small Chen Yuejian and excitedly taught her how to say all kinds of things.
Seeing their husband come out, the three women looked at him.
“You’ve broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refining?”
Sensing the undisguised spiritual pressure on Chen An’s body, Wen Zhiyun could not help but widen her beautiful eyes in disbelief.
It had to be known that she had spent at least 16 hours a day cultivating for more than ten years before she finally became a powerhouse at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
As an Alchemist, Chen An spent a lot of time refining pills every day. How did his cultivation break through from the fifth level of Qi Refining to the perfected seventh level of Qi Refining in just a year?
What was going on?
Wen Zhiyun was puzzled and doubted her life.
Song Huaying and Gu Xinyue were shocked when they heard that her husband had broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refinement and become a late-stage Qi Refinement expert.
Among them, Song Huaying quickly turned excited.
She got up and threw herself into Chen An’s arms. Her face was flushed with excitement.
“Husband, you’re too amazing. How many blessings did Ying’er cultivate in her previous life to be lucky enough to marry you? We have to celebrate tonight!”
Chen An pinched his wife’s tender flesh and smiled at her, Gu Xinyue, and Wen Zhiyun.
“There’s no need for tonight. Let’s do it now. i want to celebrate with you guys properly and let you guys experience the power of a late-stage Qi Refining male Cultivator.”
With that, he cast a Sleepy Time Spell on his daughter, Chen Yuejian, making her fall asleep with a sweet expression. Then, he brought his wives and concubines into the next room.
