Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 86: No Longer Tolerating (33)

After a meal.

Chen An hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to take the initiative to talk about the results of the test.

"Yinger, Yuer, Yun'er, regarding my application to join Treasure Pavilion, unfortunately, I didn't pass the test."

"It is said that the quality of the pill was a bit lacking, which led to the failure of the test."

"But the good news is, I still have another chance to retake the test. This time, I am absolutely confident that I can pass."

"Mhmm, Yinger believes in her husband!"

"Yuer also believes in her husband."

"Husband, you are our pride. I believe you will definitely pass the test."

"Dad, I believe in you too!"

Chen An's wife and daughters encouraged him, full of confidence in him.

Looking at the confident expressions of his wife and daughters, Chen An felt for the first time that having a family was truly wonderful. He no longer wanted to return to the lonely life of cultivation he had before.

Although he could feed the whole family and didn't have to worry about their safety all the time, that kind of life was too lonely.

Lonely to the point that even immortality would probably feel boring.

In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.

Tonight, it was Gu Xinyue's turn to spend the night in her room.

After taking a simple bath.

Chen An walked into Gu Xinyue's room and lay down beside her on the bed.

Gu Xinyue was very sensible. She comforted Chen An in the same way Wen Zhiyun and Song Huaying did during the day.

In order to make Chen An happy, she now willingly did many things she used to be reluctant to do.

Chen An didn't say anything, keeping his eyes closed the whole time. He enjoyed Gu Xinyue's comfort while thinking about why he didn't pass the test.

He thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out the reason.

In the end, he decided to stop worrying about it and simply pulled Gu Xinyue down, holding her tightly to strengthen their marital bond, no longer caring about the troubles in his heart.

The next day came quickly.

After having breakfast, Chen An rested for a while before heading to Treasure Pavilion.

Based on his previous experience, this time he didn't ask anything and simply chatted briefly with Liu, the shopkeeper, before entering the alchemy room to refine the Qingling Pill.

Eight hours later, the Qingling Pill was successfully refined.

Success on the first try.

The success rate was high, the efficiency was good, and most importantly, the quality of the pill was even higher than the Qingling Pills sold in Treasure Pavilion.

"Master Chen, this time it's definitely stable!"

The shopkeeper Liu smiled and said.

Upon hearing this, Chen An quickly waved his hand and said, "Shopkeeper Liu, please don't jinx me again. It was because of your jinxing last time that I failed."

Soon, the second day of testing arrived.

Just like yesterday, the Qingling Pill was successfully refined in eight hours.

The same went for the third day, fourth day, fifth day... until the eighteenth day.

Every time, he was able to refine a high-quality Qingling Pill in just eight hours.

In the blink of an eye, the long-awaited twenty-first day finally arrived.

As early as yesterday afternoon, Chen An had already finished refining the twenty Qingling Pills.

And today, Li, the steward, was coming from Treasure Pavilion to inspect the goods.

Before leaving for Treasure Pavilion, Chen An brought his daughter back to the room and put her to sleep, using the Sleep Aid Technique to make her sleep soundly.

[You used the Sleep Aid Technique on your daughter, Chen Yuejian, making her sleep soundly. Sleep Aid Technique proficiency +1.]

[Sleep Aid Technique: Mastery (500/2500)]

"I've made a breakthrough."

Chen An's heart remained calm.

If it weren't for being busy these past few days, spending almost the entire day refining pills and often forgetting to put his daughter to sleep, he would have made this breakthrough in the Sleep Aid Technique ten days ago.

After putting his daughter to sleep.

Chen An calmly walked out of the room.

He was preparing to go to the Treasure Pavilion to personally witness the inspection of the goods by Manager Chen.

For this test, after refining each Qingling Pill, he would mark it under the witness of Manager Liu and the Lingying Stone.

Afterwards, he would borrow the spirit pigeon that Manager Liu usually used to contact the Treasure Pavilion and send the Lingying Stone of the day to Manager Li.

The purpose of doing this was to allow Manager Li to give the test results as soon as he arrived today, instead of having to take the Lingying Stone back to observe and verify slowly.

In short, Chen An wanted to personally witness Manager Li giving the test results today.

To eliminate any possibility of covert manipulation.

Soon, under the watchful eyes of his wives, Chen An walked out of the house.

As he was about to leave the courtyard, Song Huaying quickly walked up and said, "Husband, it's still early now. The genius has just risen. The people from the Treasure Pavilion won't come so soon. If you go there, you will definitely have to wait. Why not go to Ying'er's room and relax? Ying'er has come up with some new ideas last night that you will definitely like."

After hearing this, Wen Zhiyun also advised, "Husband, you should listen to Ying'er. It's still early and the Treasure Pavilion is not open for business yet. Why go there so early?"

Gu Xinyue didn't advise, but her eyes showed that she also wanted Chen An to stay.

Chen An thought for a moment and felt that it was true. He realized that he was too impatient in everything he did, which was not a good habit.

Thinking about it, he smiled at his three beautiful wives and said, "Alright, I'll listen to you."

The three wives all smiled upon hearing this, feeling that they were being valued by their husband.

[You listened to the advice of your wives, making them feel valued by you. Emotions from wives +1+3+1+4+5+2+0...]

...

At the same time.

In a secluded forest far from residential houses in the core area.

Under the leadership of Master Zhu, the elders and officials of the Bamboo Leaf Gang had spent a whole month setting up a trap here.

"Master, both the formation and the traps have been set up. We have checked them thoroughly and found no problems," a senior named Xiao reported.

Master Zhu nodded, a smile always on his face.

Then, he turned to Pan Hui, who seemed nervous, and asked her, "Fellow Daoist Pan, have you remembered what I asked you to do just now?"

Pan Hui looked at the pot she was holding, her eyes filled with struggle.

But when she thought of her husband who was still suffering on the battlefield, her struggling eyes quickly became determined.

"Master Zhu, I have remembered everything. I will make Qingyi eat this pot of Lingfish porridge with Soft Immortal Powder, and then I will deceive her to come to this forest, where she will be trapped in the formation and unable to escape."

"Fellow Daoist Pan, do you know the consequences of a guilty conscience?"

"My husband and I will be worse than dead."

"Very well, go find your sister Qingyi. I'll be waiting here for good news."

"Yes."

Pan Hui replied and quickly left with quick steps.

Master Zhu watched her gradually disappearing figure and the smile on his face grew even wider.

At this moment, he had already started to imagine the satisfying scene that would happen next in his mind.

Shen Qingyi, who usually considered herself superior, would kneel in front of him, wagging her tongue like a lowly dog.

Thinking about it, a handsome figure suddenly flashed through his mind, causing his smile to diminish slightly.

He put away all the smiles on his face and looked at the elders and officials in front of him, saying, "I don't want to see that Chen Dan Master appear in the Bamboo Leaf Forest again. Who will go?"

"Master, I'll go!"

Elder Zhao from the Enforcement Hall immediately stepped forward and kneeled on one knee, volunteering.

Master Zhu looked deeply at him, knowing what he was thinking. He looked down at him and said, "Elder Zhao, after dealing with Chen Dan Master, bring Wen Zhiyun to me immediately. I will enjoy her first, and then you can enjoy her. Do you understand?"

"I understand, Master!"

"Go."

"Yes, Master!"

After Elder Zhao finished speaking, he immediately stood up and quickly left with several officials, rushing towards Chen An's house.

At this moment, all he wanted to do was to kill Chen An as soon as possible, and then enjoy his three wives, who were as beautiful as Celestial Immortals.
