Becoming Immortal Through Getting Married-Chapter 38: Enemy Attack

[You communicated with your wife, Gu Xinyue, for the entire night. The strength of your divine sense +2.] x18

[You showed your wife, Gu Xinyue, the ultimate spell, 'Goldfinger'. Proficiency of 'Goldfinger' +2.] x25

The next morning, Chen An sat up in bed.

He first looked at the notification, then opened his information panel.

[Name: Chen An]

[Cultivation: Qi Refining Level 5]

[Alchemy Technique: Intermediate Level 1 (463/500)]

[Consciousness: Intermediate Level 1 (424/500)]

[Goldfinger: Proficient (289/500)]

[Sleepy Time Spell: Beginner (22/100)]

[Spouses: Song Huaying, Gu Xinyue]

[Progeny: Chen Yuejian]

"Soon, my alchemy realm and divine sense are about to break through to high-level Class 1."

Chen An's face was filled with a gratified smile.

In order to break through as soon as possible, he worked hard every day for the next few days.

A few days later, both his alchemy and divine sense broke through.

In the morning, he had successfully broken through to the advanced stage in the Alchemy Realm.

[Alchemy Technique: Advanced Rank 1 (502/2500)]

Chen An could not wait to enter the alchemy room to test. The success rate doubled.

The efficiency of refining pills increased by more than five times. His income has greatly increased.

As long as he worked hard every day and guaranteed that he would be refining pills for 12 hours a day, his monthly income would increase to about 80 low-grade spirit stones.

Coupled with his current savings, even if he had to bear the rent alone, he could hold on until his alchemy realm broke through to Level 2.

Not to mention, now that he was sharing the rent with Wen Zhiyun, he only needed to pay 50 low-grade spirit stones a month.

This time, the rent problem was completely resolved.

There were even a lot of spirit stones left every month that could be used to improve his quality of life.

In the afternoon, his divine sense realm had also successfully broken through to advance-stage Level 1.

[Consciousness: Advanced Level 1 (500/2500)]

The moment his divine sense broke through, Chen An felt a warmth land on his head. It was as if his delicate wife was caressing him back and forth with her warm and soft little hand. It was a comfortable feeling that made him feel like he was floating.

However, this feeling did not last long. As his consciousness inexplicably trembled, his entire brain instantly became unprecedentedly ethereal and clean.

At this moment, Chen An could clearly feel that his senses had improved.

His vision range had increased to 500 meters, and he could see any mosquito within 500 meters.

The same was true for the hearing range.

At this moment, from several houses and dozens of walls away, one could clearly hear the shaking of the bamboo bed in a certain house hundreds of meters away. Any detail could be heard clearly.

"This is too strong…"

"Now, even a ninth level Qi Refining Cultivator's senses might not be comparable to mine."

"Invincible among my peers!"

Chen An was unable to restrain the excitement in his heart.

At night, he told his wife and concubine the good news. His wife and concubine were so happy that they pulled him into the room to celebrate.

For the next few days, Wen Zhiyun did not sleep well in the room next door. She could not sleep at night almost every night.

…

In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed.

On this day, the Bamboo Leaf Gang's two-month undercover operation came to an end.

In these 60 days, the Bamboo Leaf Gang's Law Enforcement Hall had found a total of 48 undercover agents from the Dark Iron Manor.

39 of them were executed. The remaining nine would be used to exchange hostages with the Black Iron Manor.

Early in the morning, Chen An carried the medicine box and went out to the market to sell medicinal pills.

As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, he saw many neighbors chatting outside.

"This clean-up operation is finally over. Everyone no longer has to live on tenterhooks every day, afraid that they will be killed one day."

"That's right. Life can finally be a little quieter."

"Only you Blacksmiths and Talisman Craftsmen are rich and don't lack money to pay rent. Cultivators like me who don't have any skills can't wait to have a clean-up operation every month. At least this way, we won't have to worry about rent."

"Fellow Cultivator Han, you must be joking. As support occupations with low cultivation levels, we can only live a little better when the situation is stable. Once the situation is chaotic one day, we, who don't have the ability to protect ourselves, will often be the first to die."

"Everyone, you have to be prepared in the near future. Now that the clean-up operation is over, I'm afraid that it won't be long before the Bamboo Leaf Gang and the Black Iron Manor start a full-scale war."

"I'm not worried about that at all. I've already prepared all kinds of stocks more than a month ago."

"…"

The neighbors chatted one after another, enjoying the rare peace that they had welcomed during this period of time.

At this moment, someone saw Chen An and immediately teased him.

"Alchemist Chen, you're finally willing to come out. I haven't seen you for at least a month."

The others said:

"Heh, he has a beautiful wife and concubine hidden in his house. If it were me, I wouldn't come out either. How nourishing would it be to enjoy the service of my wife and concubine at home every day?"

"What do you mean by a wife and concubine? Alchemist Chen has Fellow Cultivator Wen in his room."

"If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten. All of the flowers of our Bamboo Leaf Forest have been plucked by Alchemist Chen. How enviable."

"Alchemist Chen knows how to enjoy life."

"…"

Initially, everyone was just teasing Chen An that he often shut himself in. However, as they spoke, they shifted the topic to Wen Zhiyun. The more they spoke, the more unbelievable they felt. It felt like a dream.

Wen Zhiyun was famous for having high standards in the past. She did not even fancy Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Why did she suddenly take a fancy to an Alchemist with a cultivation of only the fifth level of Qi Refinement?

Speaking of Alchemists, there had been second-grade Alchemists who had pursued Wen Zhiyun in the past, but she had never agreed to go out with them.

Could it really be because Chen An was handsome?

Everyone was puzzled and continued to gossip about the relationship between Wen Zhiyun and Chen An.

BANG!

The sound of a heavy window opening suddenly came from the house behind Chen An.

The next second, Wen Zhiyun's intellectual voice sounded.

"Who's his companion? When did I become his companion? If you continue to ruin my reputation, I'll make sure you won't get away with it!"

Wen Zhiyun's voice was very fierce, scaring the neighbors outside into silence.

This flower was not only good-looking, but her strength was also one of the best in the core area.

Most importantly, she bore grudges, which made many Cultivators unwilling to offend her.

Chen An looked back at Wen Zhiyun.

The moment their eyes met, Wen Zhiyun immediately closed the window and did not dare to look at him.

This was a shy display of liking someone.

"Have you fallen in love with me over time?"

Chen An smiled, thinking that his method of luring Wen Zhiyun to share a room with him back then was the correct one.

As long as they were of the same age, they would naturally develop feelings for each other after living under the same roof for a long time.

The prerequisite was not to be too ugly.

…

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

That night, the family had dinner and took a walk in the courtyard.

Chen An carried his daughter, who was more than a month old. As he walked, he made all kinds of faces to tease her, making her laugh from time to time.

"Husband, Yuejian is so smart. She's only a month old, but she can already laugh."

Song Huaying was pleasantly surprised.

Today was the first time she had heard her daughter laugh.

Based on what she knew in the past, it usually took young children two to three months to learn to laugh.

How could someone with spiritual roots not be smart… 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝐧𝐨𝘃𝐞𝐥.𝗼𝗿𝐠

When she thought up here, Chen An smiled and said, "Isn't that because her mother is intelligent and quick-witted, allowing her to inherit her mother's intelligence?"

"Husband's mouth is so sweet. Let me try it."

Song Huaying was all smiles after being praised. As she spoke, she took a step forward and stood on her tiptoes to kiss her husband.

"Darling, it's sweet."

Song Huaying's smile was very sweet, causing Chen An to lose focus for a moment.

Gu Xinyue was extremely envious.

She also wanted to learn from Song Huaying and flirt with her husband. Unfortunately, her personality was too cold and conservative. She could not let go at all.

Wen Zhiyun, who was sitting cross-legged in her room, was also envious.

She heard the commotion in the courtyard outside and could not calm down to cultivate.

She was now waiting for Chen An to break through this layer of paper every day.

However, Chen An refused to take a stab at her. She was very anxious that he hadn't taken the initiative.

She had thought of taking the initiative to expose him, but she could not let go of her usual cold and arrogant attitude every time.

Chen An knew what she was thinking, that's why he just refused to take the initiative.

Because to a proud person, taking the initiative was equivalent to recognizing a master. It was a complete loss of dignity.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a loud sound came from afar. The entire ground shook.

Song Huaying lost her balance and fell backward.

Fortunately, Chen An reacted quickly and pulled her into his arms.

"Wow… wow… wow!"

The daughter in his arms was so frightened that she wailed.

Wen Zhiyun, who was in the room, came out and hurriedly asked Chen An, "What happened?"

Chen An shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Many neighbors walked out of the house to see what was going on outside.

For a moment.

The entire Green Willow Alley became noisy.

Everyone was discussing what had happened to cause such a huge commotion.

Just as everyone was confused, the Bamboo Leaf Gang Cultivators stationed in the core area suddenly shouted:

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

"The people from the Black Iron Manor are here!"
