The next day, before dawn, Chen An sat up from the bed and looked at the notification that popped up in front of him. His face was filled with a gratified smile.
Ever since he mastered Flying Mandarin Ducks, the experience gained from his various attributes increased a lot every day.
Compared to the initial speed of gaining experience two and a half years ago, it was more than ten times faster.
Especially his wife. From the time she was afraid of the frequency of his needs, now, she often took the initiative to look for him and is practically insatiable. Her improvement was huge.
“It seems that other than the Flying Mandarin Ducks that’s worth 700 spirit stones, the other three techniques are also useful. They made my wife’s physique much better. Those 50 low-grade spirit stones were worth it.”
As Chen An spoke, he looked at Song Huaying, who was sleeping soundly at the side. His face was filled with love as he tidied her messy hair, revealing her perfect little face. The more he looked at her, the more he liked her.
Husband…”
Song Huaying woke up in a daze. She turned around lazily and rested her head on Chen An’s thigh, as clingy as a kitten.
Seeing that she was awake, Chen An took out a bottle of Blood Circulation Gel that he had prepared in advance and gently applied it on her to reduce the swelling.
“It hurts!” Song Huaying frowned. Then, she pursed her lips and looked at Chen An. “Husband, be gentle-”
Chen An retracted his strength slightly and said with a face full of self-reproach, “Ying’er, it’s my fault. I’ll be careful in the future.”
Hmph, bad husband, 1 don’t believe you!” Song Huaying pouted her cherry lips slightly and complained, “Husband, you say that every time, but there will always be a next time. I think you’re deliberately torturing me.”
Chen An knew that he was in the wrong. He could only smile and not say anything.
A moment later, after applying the medicine to his wife’s swelling, seeing that it was about time, Chen An put on his clothes and got out of bed, preparing to go to Gu Xinyue’s room to take a look.
“Husband, wait.”
“What happened?”
“Where did you put that stone last night? 1 want to see…”
Here, little vixen. Appreciate it.
Chen An took out an exquisite stone from his pocket and threw it to Song Huaying. He smiled and pinched her red face before leaving.
Just as he walked out of the room, he heard Song Huaying’s voice.
Chen An smiled and shook his head. Then, he walked to Gu Xinyue’s room and pushed the door open. He gently applied medicine to this ice queen of a concubine’s swelling to reduce it. Then, he left an exquisite stone on the bed and left.
After that, Chen An walked into Wen Zhiyun’s room at the side. He looked at his daughter, Chen Yuejian, who was sleeping soundly and wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth.
In order to liberate his wife from the time he had to work at night, his daughter, Chen Yuejian, basically slept with Wen Zhiyun, who needed to recuperate and could not have sex.
After sitting by the bed and admiring his daughter’s cute sleeping posture for a while,
Chen An took out a bottle of medicine that could help reduce the swelling and placed it beside Wen Zhiyun’s pillow. When she woke up, she would rinse her mouth to reduce the swelling.
She did not want to complain when she returned at night that she would not be able to eat her favorite fried dough sticks in the morning.
“Oh right, I almost forgot about this.”
Chen An, who was about to walk out of the room, suddenly remembered that he still had a stone in his arms. He took it out and walked back to place it beside the bottle of mouthwash. Wen Zhiyun would admire it when she woke up.
After all, Song Huaying and Gu Xinyue both had it, so she had to have it too, lest she said that he was biased.
After doing all of this, Chen An entered the kitchen and ate something to fill his stomach. Then, he went out to the Treasure Hall to partake in the test to join the Treasure Pavilion.
He set a small goal and refined 150 Spirit Concentration Pills on the first day.
In the Marketplace, Treasure Hall.
As usual, Chen An came early.
The Treasure Hall was still closed.
He looked at the stall in front of him in boredom and saw the old Cultivator and Dabao selling spiritual fish.
He suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to buy spiritual fish when he went back yesterday.
Therefore, he walked over and spent a low-grade spirit stone to buy a huge spirit fish. He thought about making soup and steaming half of it before asking the old Cultivator to send it to his house when he closed the stall.
While waiting for the Treasure Hall to open for business.
With a thought, Chen An opened the information panel of his three wives and checked their data.
[Name: Song Huaying]
[Attribute: Return the favor of a drop of water.]
[Relationship: 3 stars (2455/2500)]
[Name: Gu Xinyue]
[Attribute: Pure and Untainted, Loyal and Unwavering]
[Relationship: 3 stars (2023/2500)]
[Name: Wen Zhiyun]
[Attribute: Devastatingly Beautiful, Excellent Innate Ability]
[Relationship: 2 stars (488/500)]
“Unknowingly, the Relationship between the three of them has almost leveled up. Not bad.”
Chen An nodded in relief.
At this moment, Shopkeeper Liu pushed open the door with a creak and started today’s business.
Chen An chatted with him for a while, then followed him into an alchemy room.
There were a total of 2,200 sets of ingredients for refining the Spirit Concentration Pill in the alchemy room.
Chen An needed to use these limited materials to refine 2,000 Spirit Concentration Pills.
In order to complete this goal, the success rate had to be at least 90%. Chen An was still quietly confident about this.
After all, the Spirit Concentration Pill was only a Level 1 medicinal pill. Using
Level 2 alchemy techniques, it was not difficult to maintain a success rate of more than 90%.
The difficulty was how to maintain this success rate while taking into account the efficiency of refining pills.
“Phew-”
Chen An took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
After that, he did not waste any more time. He immediately walked to the pill furnace and sat down cross-legged, beginning his alchemy test.
He didn’t eat or drink. He did not sleep.
He cultivated from five in the morning to eight in the night.
He finally completed the goal of the first day with difficulty.
He used a total of 160 sets of materials and successfully refined 150 pills.
Whether it was the efficiency or the success rate, they far exceeded the standards of the test.
“Looks like my alchemy strength is stronger than I imagined.”
“Joining the Treasure Pavilion is a sure thing.”
Chen An looked at the condensed Spirit Concentration Pill in front of him and felt unprecedented confidence.
After briefly tidying up the alchemy room, he left with the 150 Spirit Concentration Pills he had refined and the photographic stone that served as a surveillance device. He went straight to Shopkeeper Liu.
“Shopkeeper Liu, today’s mission is completed. A total of 160 sets of materials have been consumed and 150 Spirit Concentration Pills have been successfully refined. Take a look at the photographic stone to verify.”
“Leave it with me for now. I’ll just verify it for Deacon Li.”
As he spoke, Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said, “Alchemist Chen, based on your results on the first day, can I congratulate you in advance?”
“Don’t, don’t milk me!”
“What’s milking you?”
Shopkeeper Liu was confused.
Chen An did not explain.
People from different eras would eventually have a generation gap in language.
“Alchemist Chen, congratulations on completing the mission!”
Pan Hui walked over with a smile.
She had come to deliver pastries to Shen Qingyi and was eating with her at the dining table in front.
Last night, she had learned from Shopkeeper Liu that Chen An was applying to join the Treasure Pavilion and had participated in a referral test.
Coincidentally, she saw that Chen An had completed his first day’s goal, so she wanted to come over and congratulate him.
“Thank you.” Chen An replied politely.
Pan Hui invited, “Alchemist Chen, 1 made a large box of spirit cakes for Qingyi to eat. You should go over and try them too. They’re delicious.”
Chen An glanced at Shen Qingyi and smiled at Pan Hui. “Since Fellow Cultivator Pan has said so, 1 won’t stand on ceremony. When I come tomorrow, I’ll bring some pastries made by my wives for you to try.”
“Then I’ll be waiting.”
As Pan Hui spoke, she grabbed Chen An’s sleeve and brought him over to Shen Qingyi’s side. She did not have the concept of men and women not touching each other. It was unknown if she did it on purpose or if she really did not care.
Chen An sat down beside Shen Qingyi and said with a smile, “Fellow Cultivator Shen, do you mind if 1 sit here?”
“Make yourself comfortable.”
Shen Qingyi spoke as she ate. As she spoke, she picked up a piece of spirit cake and handed it to Chen An. “These spirit cakes made by Pan Hui are quite delicious. Alchemist Chen, try them.”
And you don’t have the concept of men and women not touching each other?
Chen An was a little surprised by Shen Qingyi’s actions, but he did not show it much. He naturally reached out to take the spirit cake from her and put it in his mouth to taste it.
The taste was really not bad.
It tasted no different from the spirit cakes he had bought for his daughter at the pastry shop yesterday.
“Fellow Cultivator Pan, your spirit cake is really good. It tastes even better than the pastry shop. I think you can open a pastry shop in the market. 1 think business will definitely be booming.”
Chen An exaggerated a little.
Pan Hui was very happy when she heard this. Her eyes narrowed into slits as she said, “Alchemist Chen, don’t say that. I really plan to open a pastry shop in the market. When the time comes, you have to come often.”
“Definitely.” Chen An replied with a smile.
Then, he picked up a purple spiritual cake and handed it to Shen Qingyi with a smile. “Fellow Cultivator Shen, this color is delicious. Try it.”
Shen Qingyi reached out to take the spirit cake and placed it in her mouth. She nodded and said, “Yes, it does taste better.”
Seeing that Shen Qingyi had really eaten the spirit cake he had handed over, Chen An could not help but raise his eyebrows.
Whoa, she really didn’t care about the concept of no physical contact between men and women.
Perhaps 1 can find another way. I can be her brother first, then coax her into bed to be my wife.
For example… “Chen An, I treat you as a brother, but you actually want to sleep with me?”
“Qingyi, how can you think of me like that? I just want to have a child with you to better protect our brotherly relationship.”
Yes, that could work.
Chen An looked at Shen Qingyi, who was at the side, and thought about all this nonsense.
At this moment, Shopkeeper Liu’s fawning voice and a deep man’s voice came from the door.
“Sect Master Zhu, why didn’t you tell me you were coming? I could have gone out to welcome you personally.”
“Come, come, come. Sect Master Zhu, come in and sit here. I’ll make you a pot of good tea.”
“No need. I’m just looking for someone.”
Chen An looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in white clothes walking slowly towards him with several Bamboo Leaf Gang Cultivators.
He recognized this man in white. He was the leader of the Bamboo Leaf Gang, Zhu Tiancheng.
An Almighty whose cultivation had reached the third level of Foundation Establishment..
