Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 380: Hua Xuanyin's Purpose (22)

Hearing Hua Xuanyin's voice, Chen An couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Why would she suddenly come to find me?

To give me instructions on my duties as an official?

But she could have just passed them on to me. How could it be that she, as the esteemed hall master, came to visit in person?

She doesn't seem like the kind of leader who would compromise herself for her subordinates...

Chen An was puzzled.

With that in mind, he quickly teleported outside of the Cave Mansion.

What caught his eye was an unnamed flower several meters tall growing in front of the Cave Mansion, emitting a tempting fragrance.

No, this fragrance wasn't coming from the flower.

It was emanating from Hua Xuanyin on the flower.

Chen An looked up at Hua Xuanyin on the flower.

She was wearing a green silk dress, her long black hair still tied up with a peach blossom branch, and her bare jade feet casually resting on the petals.

Although her appearance was quite ordinary, it had a fatal allure to Chen An.

"Chen, it's fine to take a look, but it's impolite to stare," Hua Xuanyin said, curling her delicate jade feet and raising her eyebrows slightly, her tone carrying a hint of coldness.

Chen An dared not look any longer and quickly averted his gaze from Hua Xuanyin's jade feet.

After steadying his emotions, he looked at Hua Xuanyin and asked, "May I ask why the hall master has graced us with her presence? Is there a task to be assigned?"

"Not really, I just wanted to come and chat with you," Hua Xuanyin said, already lightly descending from the flower. Using two peach-colored petals as shoes, she walked gracefully towards Chen An and stopped in front of him.

Her gaze was not on Chen An, but on the mansion behind him, as she calmly said, "Chen, your immediate superior has come to visit you. Is it appropriate to let her stand outside without inviting her in for proper hospitality?"

"I didn't consider that. Hall master, please come in," Chen An said, respectfully stepping aside and gesturing for her to enter.

Seeing how well-mannered he was, Hua Xuanyin's face showed a hint of satisfaction.

She then took light steps and walked into the mansion, neither fast nor slow.

Watching her gradually receding figure, Chen An furrowed his brows slightly, unable to fully understand what the hall master of Hundred Flower Hall wanted to do.

Could it be that she finds me handsome and has taken an interest in me?

Or is there some other reason?

Thinking this, Chen An followed behind Hua Xuanyin into the mansion while using his Divine Ability, "Insight into Heavenly Secrets," in his mind.

However, just as he used this ability, Hua Xuanyin, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped and turned around to look at him, saying, "Are you deducing my heavenly secrets?"

Chen An was taken aback.

Insight into Heavenly Secrets didn't work on Hua Xuanyin?

And she even discovered it?

Is this the power of a Quasi-Immortal King?

Thinking this, he hesitated for a moment before choosing to be honest and said, "I felt uneasy when the hall master suddenly came to visit my mansion, so I wanted to use my Divine Ability to deduce some heavenly secrets."

"Chen, you're quite honest," Hua Xuanyin said with a smile, not dwelling on the matter. She quickly sat down at the tea table in the hall.

Chen An followed suit and sat across from her.

"This is the Profound Heaven Yuan Flower Tea, even in the Upper Realm, it is a rare treasure. Chen, please brew a pot and taste it," Hua Xuanyin said.

"Thank you, Master Tang."

Chen An took the small bag of tea that Hua Xuanyin casually threw to him, opened the tea bag and poured it into the teapot. He then filled it with water and skillfully lit a strand of alchemical fire to heat it.

Looking at the pure white alchemical fire at the bottom of the pot, Hua Xuanyin raised an eyebrow in surprise and asked, "Chen An, are you also an alchemist?"

"I made my name as an alchemist in the mortal realm and luckily became a ninth-rank alchemist," Chen An replied.

"In that case, I've stumbled upon a treasure. But if that old guy from the Alchemy Hall finds out, he'll surely come looking for trouble," Hua Xuanyin said.

"Master, rest assured, I won't reveal my identity as an alchemist," Chen An assured her.

"No need to worry. I'm not afraid of that old man from the Alchemy Hall. At least half of the alchemical materials in his hall are supplied by my Hundred Flower Hall," Hua Xuanyin said confidently.

Chen An secretly noted her attitude towards the Alchemy Hall. Once he officially took her as a concubine, he would have no trouble dealing with the people from the Alchemy Hall.

After a while, the tea was ready.

Chen An brought a cup and poured a cup for Hua Xuanyin first.

Then he brought another cup and poured himself a cup.

He took a sip and felt refreshed.

At the same time, he seemed to have gained some kind of enlightenment about the world.

This tea is extraordinary... Chen An was amazed.

Seeing the expression on his face, Hua Xuanyin smiled and asked, "Chen An, how does the taste of the Profound Heaven Yuanhua tea?"

"I have never tasted such a delicious tea before," Chen An blurted out without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Hua Xuanyin laughed and said, "Chen An, one should not enjoy good things alone. Since the Profound Heaven Yuanhua tea is so delicious, why don't you call your wife and daughters out to taste it as well?"

"Is the purpose of your visit to see my wife and daughters, Master?" Chen An directly confronted her, expressing his doubts.

Hua Xuanyin didn't hide it either and said straightforwardly, "Indeed, as you said, the purpose of my visit is to see your wife and daughters."

"Master, I still don't quite understand," Chen An said, three parts nervous and seven parts puzzled. He couldn't figure out what Hua Xuanyin wanted to do and prepared himself to flee with his family at any time.

Although the probability of Hua Xuanyin harming his wife and daughters was very low, it's better to be safe than sorry.

Seeing his tension, Hua Xuanyin couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, I have no ill intentions towards your wife and daughters. I just think that several of your wives and daughters have strong constitutions and bloodlines. I thought of finding them a master."

"Are you planning to use my wife and daughters as a favor for someone else?" Chen An understood Hua Xuanyin's meaning and his tone became unfriendly.

Hua Xuanyin smiled and said, "Chen An, don't use such a harsh word. This is clearly beneficial for both parties. I have thoroughly investigated your wives and daughters."

"There are those with the bloodline of the Flower Goddess, the Nine-Tailed Fox, and even those with the potential to achieve sainthood in their physical bodies."

"These are all excellent candidates. If we can find a suitable master to teach them, their future achievements will not be lower than yours."

Seeing Chen An's silence, she added, "The masters I have found for them are all in the Hundred Spirits Sacred Land, and they are all women. You don't need to have any doubts."

Chen An thought for a moment and replied, "Master, this matter is too sudden. I need time to consider."

"Naturally," Hua Xuanyin said after taking a sip of the hot tea in her cup. She then continued, "So, Chen An, you need to call all your wives and daughters out to have tea now and let them understand this matter."
