Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 235: Gaining One Thousand Supreme Grade Spirit Stones (22)

Not good, it's an ambush!

In the instant the black mist appeared, Xiao Qingyue immediately realized this.

However, the speed at which these black mists rushed out was simply too fast. Before she could react and dodge, they had already covered her face.

"Cough! Cough..."

Accompanied by a series of coughing.

Xiao Qingyue was poisoned.

A highly toxic poison!

Even with her cultivation at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, she couldn't withstand it. Her delicate body instantly stiffened, as if turning into stone on the spot.

"Elder Chen, save..."

Xiao Qingyue called out for Chen An's help, but before she could finish her sentence, her mouth and tongue also stiffened, rendering her unable to make any sound.

At the same time, her spiritual energy was sealed within her body, unable to be mobilized.

This was a premeditated attack.

Directly incapacitating Xiao Qingyue with a single strike.

"You two, quickly take Xiao Qingyue out through the secret passage and bring her to Master Cao before the core elders in the outer area react. Be fast!"

The leading member of the secret faction commanded swiftly.

The two individuals followed the order and put Xiao Qingyue into a special storage bag, intending to secretly take her out of the Heaven and Earth Sect.

At the same time, the leading member of the secret faction looked towards Chen An, who was standing nearby, and sneered, "Elder Chen, I didn't expect you to be so calm. Haven't you realized what's happening?"

"Well, although your alchemy strength is extremely strong, in the end, you're just a small Foundation Building cultivator. It's not surprising that you're dumbfounded by the scene before you."

"Last time, you ruined our Mysterious Yellow Sect's good fortune by researching the antidote. I've kept that in mind, and today, a year later, is your death anniversary!"

As the words fell, the leading member of the secret faction casually conjured a huge fireball and flicked it towards Chen An.

Fireball technique was a low-level basic spell.

But if it came from the hand of a Nascent Soul cultivator, it was more than enough to kill a Foundation Building cultivator.

"Boom!"

The fireball smashed into Chen An, instantly devouring him completely.

The other secret faction members didn't even spare him a glance. They all confidently turned around and left, thinking of quickly leaving this place of trouble to avoid any unexpected changes.

"In such a hurry to leave?"

"Don't you want to stay for a while?"

"There's still wine on the table."

Chen An's voice suddenly echoed.

The secret faction members were startled and turned back to look at him.

Seeing him standing unharmed amidst the charred ground, they all wore expressions of disbelief, unable to believe what they were seeing.

What's going on?

This Elder Chen is clearly just a Foundation Building cultivator. How did he survive a fireball spell from a Nascent Soul cultivator?

This is unbelievable!

Chen An didn't linger on their shocked gazes for too long. In the next moment, he took out the Yin-Yang Sword from his storage ring and used the Shadow Killing Technique to instantly kill all but one of them.

"Who... who are you?!"

The sole surviving member of the secret faction asked in a voice filled with fear.

Chen An was a man of few words, and with a single sword, he directly severed his opponent's vital part, causing him to scream in agony as if he would rather be dead.

"Ah ah ah ah ah—!"

This sword contained a large amount of spiritual power, instantly destroying his reproductive ability, which he would not be able to recover from on his own.

Perhaps only a Soul Formation expert would be able to repair his damaged area.

"Tell me, who are you people and what is your purpose in kidnapping Xiao Qingyue?"

"If you answer slowly or lie, I will make you suffer with each sword."

Chen An's voice was calm, but filled with a chilling intent, causing the fallen member of the secret organization to feel a chill in his heart.

The member endured the intense pain from his vital area and answered with a grimace, "We are undercover agents planted by the Mysterious Yellow Sect over five hundred years ago. The purpose of kidnapping Xiao Qingyue is to obtain her blood to activate a certain Law Weapon, but I don't know the specifics. Only the Sect Master Cao might know."

"Do you have anything else to say?"

"Please, spare my life. I know many other secrets!"

"Well, it is indeed necessary to spare your life."

With that, Chen An shattered the member's spiritual roots, destroying the cultivation he had accumulated over hundreds of years.

Afterwards, he checked Xiao Qingyue's condition and found that she had only been poisoned, causing her body to stiffen.

This poison might have been troublesome for others, but for Chen An, who had already reached Rank Five in alchemy, it was easily resolved.

"Cough! Cough..."

With the poison in Xiao Qingyue's body neutralized, her body finally regained its freedom, but she coughed due to an itchy throat.

After a moment, she stopped coughing and glanced at the bodies on the ground, then said slowly, "Did you kill them all?"

"I didn't kill them all. I deliberately left one alive for you to interrogate, but he fainted from the pain after I shattered his spiritual roots."

Chen An said calmly.

It was as if killing several Nascent Soul stage cultivators was as insignificant to him as stepping on a few ants.

Xiao Qingyue pursed her lips and spoke in a tone that was no longer as cold as usual, "I will remember today's life-saving grace."

[You saved Xiao Qingyue's life, causing her hatred towards you to decrease by half. Her current level of hatred towards you is one star.]

Damn, this woman is really stubborn!

I saved your life, and you still hate me?

Was it really that humiliating for you that night?

Chen An read the prompt message in front of him and couldn't help but curse inwardly.

After calming his emotions a bit, he straightforwardly said to Xiao Qingyue, "You don't need to remember the life-saving grace. Consider this life as something you bought from me. Please pay me one hundred thousand High Grade Spirit Stones."

He came straight to the point.

Because he believed that as the Saintess, Ning Xian'er must have become wealthy, so as the Sect Master, Xiao Qingyue must be even wealthier. Asking for too little would be a loss.

"Take it. There are one thousand Supreme Grade Spirit Stones in this storage bag. Consider today's life-saving grace as settled."

Xiao Qingyue didn't waste any words and directly took out an exquisite storage bag and threw it to Chen An.

The value of one Supreme Grade Spirit Stone was basically equivalent to one hundred High Grade Spirit Stones, so these one thousand Supreme Grade Spirit Stones were exactly equal to one hundred thousand High Grade Spirit Stones.

Chen An took the storage bag, opened it, and used his divine sense to count the stones before putting it into his storage ring.

Before leaving, he made one more request to Xiao Qingyue, "Remember to inform me of the information you obtain from interrogating this undercover agent on the ground later. Otherwise, this life-saving grace will not be settled."

After saying that, he used the Earth Escape Technique to leave the Cave Mansion, not giving Xiao Qingyue a chance to refuse.
