Becoming Immortal Through Getting Married-Chapter 24: Investigation

"Ying'er, Yue'er, let's go shopping in the market before it's too late. Let's go buy some daily necessities."

After bringing his wife and concubine around the house, Chen An said to them.

The luggage he had brought from his house in the cheap district had been blown up on the way. He had to replenish some supplies.

Song Huaying looked at her seven-month pregnant belly and couldn't help but worry.

"Husband, isn't it not safe to go out at night?"

"The security in the core area is much better than the cheaper area. Ying'er, you don't have to worry too much."

"Then, Husband, let's set off quickly!"

Song Huaying's attitude changed 180 degrees. She couldn't wait to walk around the market.

Previously, when she lived in the cheap district, she could not go out because it was not safe outside. She was almost bored to death at home.

Now that she had the chance to go out, she was overjoyed.

Gu Xinyue was also looking forward to it. She had often heard people say that the market in the core area was very vibrant and prosperous, and she had always wanted to go and see it.

Soon, the three of them went out to the market.

When they arrived at the market, the two women were shocked by the abundance in front of them. It was novel to see anything.

As long as it was something they liked and it was not expensive, Chen An would buy it for them without hesitation.

It had been like this along the way, and their relationship had improved a lot.

When they passed by a trading company called the Treasure Hall, Chen An brought his wife and concubine in.

There were medicinal pills, cultivation techniques, weapons, and a dazzling array of goods. Everything was sold. It was worthy of the name Treasure Hall.

Chen An was more interested in cultivation techniques.

He walked to the shopkeeper's side and deliberately lowered his voice to ask, "Boss, do you have any cultivation techniques that can be cultivated with your companion?"

When his wife and concubine heard this, they immediately blushed and lowered their heads, feeling very embarrassed.

The shopkeeper was already used to this scene. In order to protect the privacy of the guests, he lowered his voice and said, "Then Fellow Cultivator, you've come to the right place. I don't have much here, but I have a lot of this cultivation technique."

After he finished speaking, he brought Chen An into a small cubicle inside.

"Fellow Cultivator, if you haven't cultivated this cultivation technique before, this 'Flying Mandarin Ducks' will be more suitable and easy to master. Moreover, the price is affordable. After mastering it, you can easily marry a few more."

"This… How much is it?"

"It's only a small profit. It only costs 10 medium-grade spirit stones."

"I'll think about it."

With that, Chen An left with his wife and concubine. He would buy this 'Flying Mandarin Ducks' book, but not now.

When he became a second-grade Alchemist in the future, his income would increase greatly.

After all, 10 medium-grade spirit stones was equivalent to 1,000 low-grade spirit stones. He did not have the money to buy it now.

After shopping for a while and buying all the necessities needed for daily life, the three of them quickly embarked on the journey home.

When they were about to reach their house, Chen An saw the beautiful woman's neighbor walk out of her house.

When they met, Chen An took the initiative to greet him. "Fellow Cultivator, we'll be neighbors from now on. I hope we'll get along well."

"Huh."

The beautiful woman sneered and rolled her eyes at him.

Unfortunately, she was too charming, making her eyes look harmless. It even added a hint of charm.

Wen Zhiyun didn't like Chen An. She turned around and walked towards his wife and concubine. She introduced herself to them with a smile.

"Sister is the neighbor who lives next door to you. My surname is Wen and name is Zhiyun. If you don't mind, you can call me Sister Wen in the future."

The wife and concubine did not understand the situation and did not immediately respond to the beautiful woman. Instead, they looked at their husband.

After getting permission from her husband's gaze, they introduced themselves.

"Sister Wen, my surname is Song and my name is Hua Ying."

"Sister Wen, my surname is Gu and my name is Xinyue."

"Your names are so nice. I have something to do now, so I'll take my leave first. You can come and play with me when you're free in the future."

After Wen Zhiyun finished speaking, she walked away with enchanting steps, leaving behind a back view that made one's imagination run wild.

Chen An was puzzled.

Fellow Cultivator Wen had never given me a good attitude before, but she was very enthusiastic about my two wife and concubine just now. Could it be that there was something wrong with her sexual orientation?

He couldn't figure it out and couldn't be bothered to think about it.

Soon, Chen An carried his wife and concubine into the house to decorate the things he had just bought. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹．𝐨𝐫𝗴

After spending more than two hours decorating, he went to take a shower as usual and went to bed with his wife and concubine to rest.

He hugged one on the left and one on the right. He had a house, a wife, and a promising future.

After Song Huaying fell asleep.

Chen An brought Gu Xinyue to another room and asked her to help him increase the strength of his divine sense.

[You communicated with your wife, Gu Xinyue, for the entire night. You worked hard to spread your roots. The strength of your divine sense +1.]

[Spiritual Sense Strength+1]

[Spiritual Sense Strength+1]

[…]

[You've used the ultimate technique, 'Goldfinger'. 'Goldfinger' proficiency +1.]

…

The next day, Chen An woke up early and went out.

He originally wanted to get up and refine pills, but he realized that he did not have any ingredients at home. He had forgotten to buy them when he was shopping in the market last night.

Creak—

He pushed open the door of his courtyard and set off to the market.

As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, he saw Wen Zhiyun, who lived next door, moving a chair and sitting in front of her house. Her dark circles looked very heavy and she was dozing off.

Chen An could not understand what she was doing, but he did not want to ask.

After all, he was an Alchemist with a house and a wife. Why did he have to be so cold-hearted and find trouble for himself?

Without thinking too much, he directly walked past Wen Zhiyun without deliberately lightening his footsteps.

As he walked, Wen Zhiyun, who was dozing off, woke up.

When she saw Chen An in front of her, she immediately said with a dissatisfied expression:

"Stop right there!"

"What happened?"

Chen An stopped in his tracks and looked at Wen Zhiyun in confusion.

Wen Zhiyun said resentfully, "You still have the cheek to ask what's wrong. You've been doing it all night. Can't you let me sleep?"

"?"

Chen An did not react for a moment. Wen Zhiyun continued to complain.

"Since ancient times, which almighty Golden Core or Nascent Soul Cultivator is not an ascetic?"

"For a Cultivator like you who is obsessed with being in love every day, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach the Foundation Establishment realm even if you cultivate for 500 years!"

"I don't want to hear those mortal voices tonight. I advise you to behave yourself!"

After saying that, Wen Zhiyun glared at Chen An. Then, she picked up the chair and went back to her house, closing the door with a bang.

Chen An was also convinced. He finally knew what Wen Zhiyun was complaining about. It turned out that he had disturbed her during the high-intensity communication with Gu Xinyue last night?

No? They were separated by a house and so many walls. How could this disturb her?

Wasn't this because she was too sensitive? Was it her own problem?

Just as Steward Zhang had said, this female neighbor was very difficult to get along with.

It was most likely because menopause had arrived and she was going crazy every day.

Thinking about it, Chen An decided to continue interacting deeply with Gu Xinyue for the entire night and not let Wen Zhiyun sleep peacefully.

He wanted her to be able to hear him but not be able to eat him.

Let's see if she still dares to roll her eyes next time.

They arrived at the market.

Chen An spent 10 low-grade spirit stones to buy all the ingredients for the Love Elixir.

After returning home, he basically spent the entire day cooped up in the alchemy room refining pills.

In the afternoon, there was a series of knocks on the door.

His wife and concubine did not dare to open the door and called Chen An out of the alchemy room.

Chen An went out to take a look and realized that a Cultivator who lived nearby had come to visit and wanted to get to know his new neighbor.

There were a total of eight Cultivators.

Five advance-stage Qi Refining Cultivators. Three intermediate-stage Qi Refining Cultivators.

The three intermediate-stage Qi Refining Cultivators were the same as Chen An. Their cultivation levels were not very high, but they could rely on their outstanding skills to survive in the core area.

One was a Talisman Craftsman, one was a Weapons Craftsman, and the other was an Alchemist.

The Alchemist was a female Cultivator, and her alchemy realm was at the high level of Tier 1. Unfortunately, her appearance was very ordinary, causing Chen An to not have any thoughts about her.

However, the other party did not have any thoughts about Chen An. She felt that his cultivation level was too low and his alchemy realm was not high. He was not worthy of her.

After dealing with the last neighbor who came to visit, Chen An closed the courtyard door, turned around, and walked towards the alchemy room, planning to continue working hard on refining.

He had no choice. The rent in the core area was too expensive. He had to work hard to refine pills and earn money.

Perhaps when he became a second-grade Alchemist in the future, he would not have to be so tired.

If he spent two hours a day refining pills, the spirit stones he earned would probably be enough to pay the rent.

However, being a second-grade Alchemist was a little stretch.

Currently, he still hoped that the child in his little wife's womb would be born soon. Then, it would be more practical for his little wife to help him become a first-grade high-level Alchemist.

In the next few days, Chen An was either refining pills or communicating with Gu Xinyue.

Sometimes, Song Huaying also wanted to come over and interact, but she was rejected by him.

It wasn't until Song Huaying said that there were many paths leading to immortality that he reluctantly agreed to communicate with her.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed. On this day, Chen An went out to the market to sell the Emotion Severing Pills he had refined in the past few days.

However, just as he walked out of the courtyard, he was blocked by a few Bamboo Leaf Gang Cultivators.

These Bamboo Leaf Gang Cultivators had very high cultivation levels. They were all at the advance-stages of Qi Refining.

The leader of the group was at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

"Alchemist Chen, the manager of the cheap district where you previously lived, Steward Zhang, Zhang Heshan, has been missing for a full fourteen days. According to our investigation, this matter seems to be related to you."
