Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 368: Ascension to the Upper Realm (22)

Late at night.

The daughters were all asleep.

In the quiet of the night, Chen An felt a bit bored by himself, so he called Yin Ji, Lin Xiu'e, Han Shuiyi, and Yin Qingyan to his room.

The reason he called these four concubines was to reconcile them and resolve any factors that were detrimental to family stability.

Because Yin Ji had betrayed Yin Qingyan in the past, and Lin Xiu'e had also betrayed Han Shuiyi.

The relationship between these two pairs of former master and servant can be described as irreparable.

This is not conducive to family unity.

Therefore, Chen An planned to unite these four concubines tonight and resolve all factors that were detrimental to family stability before ascending to the Upper Realm.

"Husband, I have already forgiven her. There is no need for me to be frank with her," Yin Ji said.

"Husband, I feel the same way," Lin Xiu'e added.

Han Shuiyi and Yin Qingyan were unwilling to be frank with their former subordinates, unable to accept the idea of being on the same level as their once lowly subordinates.

They would rather feel awkward, embarrassed, and humiliated than lower their status to accommodate their former subordinates.

Unlike them, Yin Ji and Lin Xiu'e have been in this family longer than the two of them, and they understand Chen An better and fear him more.

Therefore, they dare not speak up and choose to silently obey Chen An's arrangements.

Among them, Yin Ji is even secretly looking forward to it.

In the Yin Domain, Yin Qingyan is a tyrant who doesn't see her subordinates as human beings, treating them like dogs.

Subordinates like Yin Ji, who were only at the Void Refining stage of cultivation, were even less than dogs in front of Yin Qingyan.

But now, Yin Ji can be frank with her own husband in front of her former master.

The exchange between them, with such a huge difference in status, brings a sense of satisfaction to Yin Ji.

At this moment, she is looking forward to the scene where she can call Yin Qingyan "sister," and just thinking about it makes her feel good.

"Husband, I beg you!" Han Shuiyi immediately clung to Chen An's arm with a humble expression, pleading.

However, her unwillingness cannot change Chen An's thoughts at all.

Now, she is still more like a female slave in front of Chen An. Her personal feelings are not important to him at all.

"Husband, I am willing to do anything except this!" Yin Qingyan also pleaded. At this moment, she has joined forces with Han Shuiyi.

She can accept being frank with her archenemy Han Shuiyi, but she cannot accept being frank with her former subordinate.

This is arrogance based on class.

Seeing that Han Shuiyi and Yin Qingyan were unwilling, Chen An nodded expressionlessly and said, "Since you don't want to, I won't force you."

"From now on, you are no longer my concubines. I don't need disobedient concubines."

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

"Husband, I know I was wrong!"

"Husband, I don't want freedom. I just want to be your concubine!"

As soon as Chen An finished speaking, Han Shuiyi and Yin Qingyan almost simultaneously knelt down, fearfully clutching Chen An's thigh and apologizing.

Chen An's last words, "I don't need disobedient concubines," frightened them, afraid that he would kill them without hesitation.

"If you want to continue being my concubines, it depends on what you do next," Chen An said calmly.

Han Shuiyi and Yin Qingyan immediately stood up and approached their respective traitorous subordinates, abandoning all dignity and self-esteem, and began to be frank with them as Chen An requested.

These former high-ranking palace and domain lords have completely submitted to Chen An.

But it was just forced compliance, and there was some resentment in their hearts.

Chen An didn't care about this.

At this stage, his only requirement for Han Shuiyi and Yin Qingyan was to judge their actions, not their hearts.

No matter what they thought in their hearts, as long as they obeyed in their actions, it was enough.

It was worry-free and effortless, without any worries.

Just like that.

Under Chen An's continuous hard work for several days, Han Shuiyi and Lin Xiu'e, Yin Qingyan and Yin Ji, these two pairs of former master and servant who had broken off their relationship, gradually reached a superficial reconciliation.

This reconciliation mainly referred to Han Shuiyi forgiving Lin Xiu'e, and Yin Qingyan forgiving Yin Ji.

In order to turn this superficial reconciliation into a real one, for more than ten consecutive days, Chen An let Han Shuiyi and the others enter his room every night to be frank with each other.

As time went by and the frequency increased, the relationship between Han Shuiyi and the others eased a lot.

...

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, several months had passed.

During these past few months, Chen An's harvest was unprecedentedly huge.

Except for Han Shuiyi and Yin Qingyan, whose affection level remained at 5 stars, the affection levels of the other ten concubines had all reached 6 stars.

As for his daughters, currently only the five older ones had reached 6 stars.

As for the remaining eleven younger daughters, their affection levels ranged from 1 star to 5 stars.

Yes, the number of his daughters had reached a staggering 16.

This was because in the past few months, his several pregnant concubines had given birth, and just like before, they were all daughters.

The ninth daughter was born to Yin Ji and named Chen Mengyi.

The tenth daughter was born to Long Biqiong and named Chen Miaomiao.

The eleventh and twelfth daughters were twins born to Gu Xinyue, named Chen Siran and Chen Jinghan respectively.

The thirteenth daughter was born to Wen Zhiyun and named Chen Shiying.

The fourteenth and fifteenth daughters were twins born to Shen Qingyi, named Chen Xueying and Chen Ziyan respectively.

The sixteenth daughter was born to Lin Xiu'e and named Chen Susu.

Among the twelve concubines at home, only Han Shuiyi and Yin Qingyan had not yet given birth.

During these past few months, Chen An's relationship with his wives and daughters had improved so much, and the number of daughters had also increased significantly.

The benefits brought about by this directly allowed his cultivation level to break through to the Ninth Stage of Half Immortal, nearing the threshold of True Immortal.

However, it was precisely this threshold that took Chen An more than a month to overcome, preventing him from successfully breaking through to the True Immortal realm.

But it was also fortunate because of this that he was able to withstand the boundary force and stay in the mortal realm without Ascension.

In addition to the rewards in cultivation, he also obtained many other rewards.

The most noteworthy of them was the room keys in the Divine Palace.

He had collected all 20 keys, which allowed him to open all the rooms in the Divine Palace located deep in his mind.

He had carefully studied these rooms, but couldn't find anything special about them.

It seemed like they were only meant for living.

After thinking it over, he could only use them when Ascending to the upper realm.

At that time, he could arrange his wives and Jiu Huayu to stay in those rooms and Ascend to the upper realm together with them.

Therefore, he was now only waiting for one thing.

Waiting for his cultivation to break through to the True Immortal realm, and then Ascend to the upper realm with his whole family!
