Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 75: Getting to Know Each Other (13)

Bamboo Market, Treasure Pavilion.

When Chen An arrived, it was still early in the morning and Treasure Pavilion had not yet opened for business.

However, there were already many independent cultivators setting up stalls near Treasure Pavilion.

There were stalls selling talismans, stalls selling elixirs, and stalls selling weapons.

Anything that could be bought at Treasure Pavilion could also be bought at these stalls.

The only difference was that Treasure Pavilion was more expensive, but it offered after-sales service.

On the other hand, the items sold at these stalls were cheaper, but there was a chance of buying defective products.

Chen An had nothing to do, so he scanned the goods on these stalls from a distance, looking for something interesting to buy.

When he passed by a towering tree, he saw Da Bao and the old cultivator selling spirit fish at their stall.

Da Bao was very diligent, shouting to attract customers whenever he saw a cultivator passing by.

Chen An glanced at the spirit fish on the stall. They looked fresh and tender. He thought about buying one to make soup and steam it when he returned home.

Spirit fish is good for women's skin, and he wanted to make his three wives even more smooth.

"Creak—"

Suddenly, a sound came from behind Treasure Pavilion.

Chen An thought that Treasure Pavilion had opened its doors.

But when he turned around, he found that the main door of Treasure Pavilion was still tightly closed, and it was a window on the second floor that had been opened.

Looking up, he saw a woman in a plain white silk dress standing by the window. Her fair hands were resting on the windowsill, slightly lifting up her beautiful curved figure. Her naturally beautiful face was facing the sky, eyes closed as she took a deep breath of the fresh air outside the window.

This woman was beautiful, just like his three wives at home.

But her beauty had a different style.

Song Huaying was lively.

Gu Xinyue was cold.

Wen Zhiyun was charming.

And the woman by the window had a pure and flawless beauty that couldn't be tainted, but it made people unable to resist wanting to defile it.

Chen An's heart skipped a beat.

He didn't expect that in this small Bamboo Leaf Forest, there would be such a beautiful female cultivator who was as beautiful as a celestial immortal.

In an instant, the desire to take her as a concubine, which had been hidden deep in his heart, began to stir again.

Huh?

As he looked, Chen An suddenly frowned.

He had a feeling that the fairy in front of the window looked somewhat familiar.

He searched through his memory.

Continuously matching.

Finally, a name flashed through his mind.

- Shen Qingyi.

What the hell?

This enchanting beauty in front of the window was the ruthless female disciple of the Mysterious Yellow Sect who killed without blinking?

For a moment, Chen An thought he must have been mistaken.

In his impression, Shen Qingyi's upper body was almost flat, not as developed as many slightly muscular men.

But now, her body looked no less inferior to his spoiled concubine Wen Zhiyun. Every part of her body was exquisite and graceful.

It seemed that when Shen Qingyi usually dressed in black armor, she probably wrapped herself in cloth.

For the sake of convenience in her movements.

Otherwise, her upper body would be too burdened, making it inconvenient even to swing a sword.

By the way, he wondered what attributes could be improved after having an intimate encounter with Shen Qingyi?

While Chen An was observing Shen Qingyi, who exuded a feminine charm by the window, he was thinking about all sorts of things in his mind.

At this moment, Shen Qingyi sensed that she was being watched. She lowered her head and saw Chen An staring at her motionlessly below. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she turned around and disappeared from the window.

Chen An realized that something was wrong. It seemed that he had left a bad impression on this female Foundation Building cultivator.

"Creak—"

"Huh?"

"Chen Dan Shi, you're here so early?"

As soon as the shopkeeper Liu of Treasure Pavilion opened the door, he saw Chen An standing tall in front of the door, feeling somewhat surprised.

Chen An greeted him with a smile, "Good morning, Shopkeeper Liu."

"Good morning, Chen Dan Shi."

Shopkeeper Liu politely replied and then said, "Chen Dan Shi, the person from Treasure Pavilion who came to check the accounts didn't come this early. You came too early."

"It's better to come early than late. After all, if you miss this opportunity, you'll have to wait another half a year."

"That's true."

Liu, the shopkeeper, nodded.

Chen An smiled and didn't say anything. He went into the Treasure Pavilion and found a place to sit, waiting for the person in charge of checking the accounts.

Business at the Treasure Pavilion was good today, with people coming in one after another shortly after opening.

Liu, the shopkeeper, was busy.

No one was talking, so Chen An, having nothing else to do, wandered around by himself, looking to see if there were any new items for sale at the Treasure Pavilion.

"Benefactor, it's you!"

When Chen An walked near a shelf close to the entrance, he heard a female voice behind him.

He turned around and saw the female cultivator he and Shen Qingyi had saved that day.

After some conversation, Chen An got to know the female cultivator a little bit.

Her name was Pan Hui, a Qi Refining third level cultivator at the bottom level.

She had a husband who was at the Qi Refining seventh level.

But because he couldn't afford the rent, her husband was taken to the battlefield by the Bamboo Leaf Gang two months ago.

He still hadn't returned, and his life or death was unknown.

"By the way, Chen Dan Shi, you came so early, you probably haven't had breakfast yet. I made a pot of Ling Fish Congee and brought it with me. If you don't mind, let's eat together later?"

Pan Hui raised the sand pot in her hands and warmly invited him.

Chen An wanted to say no, but before he could refuse politely, Pan Hui suddenly walked quickly towards the stairs.

"Qingyi, I specially made a pot of Ling Fish Congee for you. Let's find a place to sit and eat!"

Pan Hui smiled at Shen Qingyi, who had just come down from upstairs.

Chen An looked over and his gaze fell on Shen Qingyi.

At this moment, Shen Qingyi was already wearing a black martial suit, and her originally scattered hair was all tied up high. Compared to the appearance he had just seen by the window, she had lost some femininity and gained some heroic spirit.

"Chen Dan Shi, come over and eat with us!"

Pan Hui waved and called out to Chen An as soon as she sat down with Shen Qingyi.

Chen An responded, "Okay, coming."

This was an opportunity to get close to Shen Qingyi, and he had to seize it.

After all, it would be very beneficial for his future life to get to know a Foundation Building expert.

After sitting down for a while, the three of them ate and chatted.

Although it was said that the three of them were chatting, it was mostly Pan Hui talking back and forth with the other two.

Chen An and Shen Qingyi didn't have a direct conversation.

During this time, Chen An curiously asked how the relationship between the two of them suddenly became so good.

They didn't even know each other half a month ago.

Afterwards, he learned from Pan Hui that in order to repay Shen Qingyi's help, she deliberately found out that Shen Qingyi lived in the Treasure Pavilion, and she came to the Treasure Pavilion every day to bring food and drinks to Shen Qingyi, trying to repay her within her ability.

Over time, Pan Hui learned that Shen Qingyi was keen on punishing evil and promoting good, often going out to eliminate villains.

So, based on her knowledge of the Bamboo Leaf Forest where she had lived for many years, she informed Shen Qingyi of the villains in the Bamboo Leaf Forest.

With her assistance, Shen Qingyi's efficiency in punishing evil and promoting good increased significantly.

As time went on, the two of them got along very well with each other, having common topics, and became good friends.

"Chen Dan Shi, now the security of the Bamboo Leaf Gang is so good, and I, Pan Hui, have contributed to it."

Pan Hui said proudly.

Chen An politely praised, "I see. I think all the residents of the Bamboo Leaf Forest and the patrol team of the Bamboo Leaf Gang should thank Fellow Daoist Pan."

He said this, but he couldn't help but worry about Pan Hui.

Pan Hui's approach, although good, was very easy to offend people and make enemies.

To put it bluntly, it wouldn't be surprising if Pan Hui died on the street one day.

After all, her actions directly threatened the personal safety of those villains.

But Chen An couldn't say these words. It would easily offend people and wouldn't be worth the effort.

Because Shen Qingyi needed Pan Hui as an informant, and Pan Hui also needed to get close to Shen Qingyi, who was a Foundation Building expert, through this method.

This was a mutually beneficial way of interaction for both of them.

As an outsider, Chen An felt that he didn't need to get involved, so as not to end up in a difficult situation later.

But in the end, this was just his personal opinion.

Even in troubled times, not everyone likes to turn a blind eye to things and mind their own business. There are always people who like to draw their swords to help when they see injustice.

Who knows, maybe Pan Hui doesn't care at all whether she offends people or not, and just wants to contribute to the security of the Bamboo Leaf Forest.

The principle of "each cultivator for themselves" doesn't apply to everyone.
