Hearing the sound coming from outside the door, Chen An looked at his three wives and stood up.

“I’ll go out and take a look.”

“Alchemist Chen, I’ll go with you.”

After saying that, Shen Qingyi stood up and followed Chen An out of the house.

The wives in the room were very sensible. They did not join in the fun, but there was some worry on their faces.

After all, they had just moved here not long ago and were unfamiliar with the place. It was difficult not to worry when someone suddenly smashed the door like this.

“Mother, 1 want to follow Father too!”

Chen Yuejian had inherited her mother’s curiosity. Now that she had seen her father go out, she wanted to join in the fun.

Song Huaying wiped her mouth and pulled her into the room. As she walked, she said, “Don’t join in the fun when Daddy is doing something. Otherwise, you’ll hinder Daddy’s work. Daddy won’t want you in the future.”

“Ah—”

“Then 1 won’t go…”

Chen Yuejian softened immediately, afraid that she would make her father unhappy.

Although she was not even two years old yet, she could more or less sense who was the head of this family.

In the front yard, in front of the main door.

Chen An opened the door with a creak.

Immediately, he saw a male Cultivator in a short shirt with a wide collar, revealing a pair of thick arms and two thick chest muscles.

This male Cultivator did not hide his cultivation level. The spiritual pressure of the first level of Foundation Establishment spread wantonly. He looked confident, exuding a high and mighty feeling.

“Who are you two? Where’s Liu Ting?!”

When he saw Chen An and Shen Qingyi coming out of the house, the male Cultivator was stunned for a moment before asking loudly.

Chen An said calmly, “Fellow Cultivator Liu sold this house to me this morning and has moved away.”

ii

Sold to you?”

The male Cultivator’s eyes widened. For a moment, he thought that he had heard wrongly.

In the next second, he became a little flustered and exasperated. “Who allowed her to sell it?! This is my house! How dare she sell it!”

“You two, I’ll give you half a day to move out. If you’re still here when I come over tonight, you’ll have to bear the consequences!”

After saying this, the male Cultivator cursed and left. He did not say anything coherent from beginning to end.

Looking at the other party’s back view, Chen An could not help but frown slightly.

There seemed to be something wrong with this house.

No wonder Fellow Cultivator Liu was in such a hurry to attack. He felt like he had been tricked…

At this moment, Shen Qingyi asked, “Alchemist Chen, what’s going on?”

“I’m not too sure about that either.” Chen An shook his head and said, “However, I bought this house through the proper process. There were no issues during the transaction process.”

“That’s good.” Shen Qingyi nodded and said confidently, “If this person dares to cause trouble at night, I’ll help you deal with him.”

When Chen An heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart. He thought to himself that Shen Qingyi had better not attack. Otherwise, another life would be lost in minutes.

It had only been a few days since he moved to the Redwood Forest. He did not want anyone to die.

He only wanted to live peacefully and cultivate his relationships with his wives and daughter every day. He wanted to use the system to silently increase his strength and be a decent person.

“Fellow Cultivators, I just walked over and heard your conversation. Did you buy Fellow Cultivator Liu’s house and settle down here in the future?”

A good-looking old woman walked over with a baby in her arms.

The woman did not deliberately hide her cultivation. The spiritual pressure of the seventh level of Qi Refining could be felt clearly. She was a late-stage Qi Refining expert.

Chen An smiled kindly and said, “Yes, 1 just bought the house this morning. I’ve only lived here for less than half a day.”

The woman introduced herself with a smile. “My surname is Luo. May I know your names, Fellow Cultivators?”

“My surname is Chen. The person beside me is Shen.”

“So it’s Fellow Cultivators Chen and Shen. My house is just ahead. We’ll be neighbors from now on.”

“Yes, we’re neighbors. Fellow Cultivator Luo, please look out for me in the future.”

“By the way, where did you move from?”

The woman asked curiously as she played with the baby in her arms.

Chen An said truthfully, “I just moved here from the Great Thousand Domain.”

“Great Thousand Domain?

■I

The woman thought for a moment and asked, “Is it on the west side of the mountain sea? That place where the spiritual energy is famous for being thin?1

ii

“Yes.”

Chen An nodded.

The woman raised her eyebrows and said, “It’s really that godforsaken place.”

“Fellow Cultivator Chen, Fellow Cultivator Shen, you’ve moved to the right place.”

“In that lousy place in the Great Thousand Domain, the spiritual qi is so thin that it’s as if it doesn’t exist.”

“It’s difficult to cultivate and earn spirit stones. Even dogs don’t live here!”

As she spoke, the woman’s slightly beautiful face was filled with arrogance, prejudice, disdain, and discrimination.

She looked down on the Great Thousand Domain, just like how many people in the city looked down on country bumpkins.

Chen An only smiled and did not say anything.

However, Shen Qingyi, who was beside him, could not take it anymore and retorted,

“Fellow Cultivator Luo, you’re being too biased. The density of Spirit Qi in the Great Thousand Domain is not as high as in the Mountain Sea Region, but because of this, there are fewer demonic beasts in the Great Thousand Domain and it’s more habitable. The people living there don’t have to be too afraid every day.”

“No, no, no. Fellow Cultivator Shen, you’re wrong. As long as we embark on the path of cultivation, we Cultivators should face the difficulties. If we cherish our lives, why should we cultivate?”

The female Cultivator retorted with a disapproving expression.

Shen Qingyi wanted to retort, but Chen An tugged at her sleeve and she stopped talking.

Seeing that this woman was so nosy, Chen An thought that she definitely knew everything about the neighbors who lived here. Hence, he smiled and asked her,

“Fellow Cultivator Luo, you should have seen it just now. A male Cultivator came over and asked me to move out of this house. I wonder who that male Cultivator is and what his relationship is with the original owner of this house, Fellow Cultivator Liu?”

“Those two are a perfect match. One is worse than the other.”

At the mention of the male Cultivator and the former owner of the house, Fellow Cultivator Liu, the woman looked disgusted.

After that, she began to tell Chen An about their relationship.

The male Cultivator just now was called Chen Hu. He was the ex-husband of the previous owner of the house, Liu Ting.

Chen Hu was a member of a Golden Core gang in the Redwood Forest. He often went to the Pleasure Seeking Tower to drink himself to death and have fun with the Cultivators there every night.

As time passed, he started to develop feelings for Liu Ting, who was a Cultivator of the Pleasure Seeking Tower.

Ten years ago, Chen Hu redeemed Liu Ting and bought this house for her in Hundred Herbs Alley. In order to prove his love, the property only had her name written on it. He bought her everything, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation. He even bought her cultivation resources.

In the end, ten years later, Liu Ting reached the Foundation Establishment realm and hooked up with a Golden Core family. She kicked Chen Hu away.

However, it was not entirely Liu Ting’s fault.

This was because Chen Hu was very good to Liu Ting in the beginning, but in the next few years, he was addicted to gambling. Sometimes, when he owed money, he would let Liu Ting sleep with his creditors. Sometimes, he would even let Liu Ting resume her old job to support him.

If Liu Ting refused, Chen Hu would fight, scold her for pretending to be chaste?

At this point, the woman smiled and asked Chen An and Shen Qingyi, “When you hear this, do you think Liu Ting is quite pitiful?”

Before the two of them could answer, the woman said that Liu Ting was not pitiful at all because she had cheated many times and had a few sugar daddies behind her back.

Otherwise, how could a mere Earth Cultivator with ordinary aptitude cultivate to the Foundation Establishment realm and join a Golden Core family?

After hearing this woman’s words, Chen An smiled and thought to himself that Chen Hu and Liu Ting were not good people.

Shen Qingyi, who was beside him, looked uncomfortable.

Her addiction to punishing evil had kicked in. She wanted to raise his sword to slash Chen Hu and Liu Ting.

One was to force a woman into prostitution. One was fishing for money.

They all deserved to be killed!

Chen An noticed Shen Qingyi’s abnormality and knew that his righteous friend was about to act up again.

Hence, he quickly changed the topic and looked at the baby in the woman’s arms. He smiled and asked,

“Fellow Cultivator Luo, how old is your son this year? He looks really energetic.”

“Fellow Cultivator Chen, your judgment is a little worrying. I don’t have a son, but a daughter!”

The woman corrected him speechlessly.

Chen An felt a little awkward.

Soon, the woman smiled and said, “However, Fellow Cultivator Chen, you’re quite observant in a certain area. You could tell at a glance that my daughter has spiritual energy.”

ii

I’m not afraid to tell you that my daughter’s spiritual roots are amazing. She has the potential to cultivate up to Foundation Establishment.”

“Moreover, she has the potential to reach the Foundation Establishment realm before the age of 50.”

“When she grows up in the future, she will definitely be able to walk out of this old and depilating Hundred Herbs Alley and join a Golden Core family or a Golden Core sect to lead a family to glory.”

“However, Fellow Cultivator Chen, you don’t have to be too envious. I only gave birth to my precious daughter when I was fifteen. It took me almost forty years. It wasn’t easy at all.”

The woman looked like she couldn’t bear to look back.

Fifteen… fifteen?

Chen An was also shocked. It turned out that this woman treated giving birth as a lucky draw.

As long as they gave birth to someone with good spiritual roots and aptitude, their entire family could soar into the sky?

Not bad, not bad. Everyone could really become an immortal.

Chen An could not help but smile bitterly in his heart.

At this moment, the woman carefully sized up Chen An and Shen Qingyi’s appearances and could not help but say enviously,

“I have to say that the two of you are really enviable. The children you will give birth to in the future will definitely be handsome and beautiful.”

“Even if your progeny’s talent is not good, they can still rely on their outstanding looks to live a good life.”

“Because if you give birth to a girl, you can marry into the Golden Core family as a concubine. If you give birth to a boy, you can marry into the Golden Core family as a son-in-law. Your family is destined to be glorious.”

The woman had no ill intentions and was not scolding anyone. She was really envious.

Chen An knew what the woman meant and could not help but feel ashamed.

This woman was purely treating the child as a tool for her to social climb.

It could not be said to be wrong, but it could not be said to be right either.

It just didn’t feel good.

Shen Qingyi explained, “Fellow Cultivator Luo, you’ve misunderstood. He and I are just friends, not husband and wife.”

Just friends? Not husband and wife? Then why are the two of you still alone in the same room?

The woman looked at Shen Qingyi with a strange gaze, suspecting that she was a Cultivator who came to provide services..
