Hearing the noise coming from outside the door, Chen An looked at his three wives and concubines, stood up and said, "I'll go out and take a look."

"Master Chen, I'll go with you."

After Shen Qingyi finished speaking, she stood up and walked out of the house with Chen An.

The wives and concubines in the room were very sensible and did not join in the fun, but there was a hint of worry on their faces.

After all, I had just moved here not long ago and was unfamiliar with the place. It was hard not to feel worried when someone suddenly banged on my door like this.

"Mom, I want to follow Daddy too!"

Chen Yuejian inherited her mother's curiosity. Now that her father had gone out, she also wanted to join in the fun.

Song Huaying wiped her mouth, pulled her up and walked towards the room, saying as they walked: "When Daddy is doing something, you should not join in the fun. Otherwise, if you hinder Daddy's work, Daddy will not want you anymore."

"ah--"

"Then I won't go..."

Chen Yue softened when she saw this, fearing that she would make her father unhappy.

Although she is less than two years old, she can already more or less sense who is the master of the house.

…

forecourt.

In front of the door.

Chen An opened the door with a creak.

The next person that came into view was a male cultivator wearing a short shirt with a wide open collar, revealing a pair of strong arms and two thick pectoral muscles.

This male cultivator did not hide his level of cultivation. His spiritual pressure, which was as high as the first level of foundation building, radiated freely. His face was full of confidence, giving people a feeling of superiority.

"Who are you two? Where is Liu Ting?"

When he saw Chen An and Shen Qingyi coming out of the house, the male cultivator was stunned for a moment, then asked loudly.

Chen An was neither anxious nor impatient, and said calmly: "Friend Liu sold this house to me this morning, and he has moved out now."

"Sold it to you?"

The male cultivator's eyes widened, and for a moment he thought he had misheard.

Then the next second, he became a little annoyed and said: "Who allowed her to sell it?! This is my house! How can she be qualified to sell it!"

"You two, I'll give you half a day to move out. If you still refuse to leave after I come over tonight, you'll have to bear the consequences!"

After saying these words, the male cultivator walked away cursing, without explaining any reason from beginning to end.

Looking at the other person's departing back, Chen An couldn't help but frowned slightly.

There seems to be something wrong with this house.

No wonder Brother Liu was so eager to take action.

I feel cheated...

At this time, Shen Qingyi asked, "Master Chen, what's going on?"

"I'm not sure about that." Chen An shook his head and added, "But I bought this house through formal procedures, so there are no problems with the procedures."

"That's good." Shen Qingyi nodded and said in a clear and confident voice, "If this person dares to cause trouble at night, I will help you deal with it."

Chen An listened and smiled bitterly, thinking that Shen Qingyi should not take any action, otherwise another life would be lost in a matter of minutes.

They had only moved to the redwood forest a few days ago, and he didn't want anyone to get killed.

I just want to live a stable life, cultivate relationships with my wife and daughters every day, quietly improve my strength through the system, and be a person with a little color.

"My two fellow Daoists, I just came over from over there and heard your conversation. Are you buying Daoist Liu's house and going to settle here in the future?"

An older woman with a good look, holding a baby in her arms, came over and started talking.

The woman did not try to hide her cultivation level. Her seventh level Qi Refining spiritual power was clearly visible, and she was a powerful Qi Refiner in the late stage.

Chen An smiled kindly and said, "Yes, I just bought the house this morning and have only lived in it for less than half a day."

After hearing this, the woman smiled and introduced herself: "My last name is Luo. What are your names, fellow Taoists?"

"My last name is Chen, and the one next to me is Shen."

"So it's Fellow Daoist Chen and Fellow Daoist Shen. My home is right in front. We will be neighbors from now on."

"Yes, we are neighbors now. I hope you can give me more advice in the future."

"By the way, where did you move from?"

The woman asked curiously while teasing the baby in her arms.

Chen An said truthfully: "I just moved here from the Great Thousand Territory."

"Great Thousand Realms?"

The woman thought for a moment and asked, "Is it on the west side of the mountain and sea area, the place with a notoriously thin spiritual energy?"

"right."

Chen An nodded.

The woman raised her eyebrows and said, "It really is that barren place."

"Friend Chen, Friend Shen, you guys are moving to the right place."

"In that shabby place called Daqianyu, the spiritual energy is so thin that it's almost non-existent."

"It's hard to practice, and it's hard to earn spirit stones. Even dogs can't live here!"

As she said this, the woman's somewhat pretty face was filled with arrogance, prejudice, disdain, and discrimination.

She looked down on the Great Thousand Realm, just as many city people looked down on country people.

Chen An just smiled and said nothing.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, your words are too one-sided. The concentration of spiritual energy in the Great Thousand Realm is not as high as that in the Mountain and Sea Realm, but because of this, there are fewer monsters in the Great Thousand Realm, making it more livable. People living there don't have to worry too much every day."

"No, no, no, it's you, Fellow Daoist Shen, whose concept is wrong. As long as we have embarked on the path of cultivation, we cultivators should face challenges head-on. If we consider cherishing our lives, then why bother cultivating immortality?"

The female cultivator retorted with a look of disapproval.

Shen Qingyi wanted to say something in rebuttal, but Chen An pulled her sleeve and she stopped talking.

Seeing this woman being so gossipy, Chen An thought that she must know everything about the neighbors living in this area, so he smiled and asked her:

"Fellow Daoist Luo, you should have seen just now that a male cultivator came to ask me to move out of this house. I wonder who that male cultivator is and what is his relationship with the original owner of this house, Fellow Daoist Liu?"

"Those two are a perfect match, each one is worse than the other."

When the woman mentioned the male cultivator and the previous owner of the house, Fellow Daoist Liu, her face was full of disgust.

After that, he began to tell Chen An about the relationship between the two people.

The male cultivator just now was named Chen Hu, and he was the ex-husband of the previous owner of the house, Liu Ting.

Chen Hu is a member of a Jindan gang in the redwood forest. He often goes to Xunhuan Tower to get drunk and have fun with Kun Xiu there every night.

As time went by, he came here for a long time and fell in love with Liu Ting, who was a pleasure seeker.

As early as ten years ago, Chen Hu redeemed Liu Ting and bought her this house in Baicao Lane. In order to prove his love, the property was only written in her name, and he provided her with all her food, clothing, housing and transportation, and even the resources for cultivation.

As a result, ten years later, Liu Ting achieved the foundation building and joined a Jindan family, and kicked Chen Hu away.

However, we can’t blame Liu Ting entirely.

Because Chen Hu was very good to Liu Ting at the beginning, but became addicted to gambling in the following years. Sometimes when he owed money, he would ask Liu Ting to sleep with the creditor, and sometimes he even asked Liu Ting to go back to her old job to support him.

If Liu Ting refused, Chen Hu would fight her and scold her for pretending to be a Kun cultivator. 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 could answer, the woman said that Liu Ting was not pitiful at all, because she was playing with several women and had several sponsors behind her back.

Otherwise, how could a mere Kun cultivator with ordinary qualifications have the resources to cultivate to the foundation-building stage and then join the Jindan family? After hearing what the woman said, Chen An smiled and thought that Chen Hu and Liu Ting were not good people.

Shen Qingyi, who was standing beside him, looked miserable.

The addiction to punishing evil and eliminating evil has come back.

He wanted to pick up his sword and chop Chen Hu and Liu Ting.

One is to force a good prostitute to become a prostitute.

A way to catch rich men and make money.

They all deserve to be killed! Chen An noticed something was wrong with Shen Qingyi and knew that this righteous friend was going to have another attack.

So he quickly changed the subject, looked at the baby in the arms of the woman in front of him, and asked with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist Luo, how old is your son this year? He looks really smart."

"Friend Chen, your eyesight is a bit worrying. This is not my son, but my daughter!"

The woman corrected speechlessly.

Chen An was a little embarrassed.

Soon, the woman smiled and said, "However, Brother Chen, you do have some insight in a certain area. You can tell at a glance that my daughter has spiritual energy."

"I'm not afraid to tell you that my daughter's spiritual roots are extraordinary and she has the potential to build a foundation."

“Moreover, there is still hope that he can achieve the foundation-building state before the age of fifty.”

"When I grow up, I will definitely be able to walk out of this old and dilapidated Baicao Lane, join a Jindan family or a Jindan sect, and lead my family to glory."

"But you don't have to be too envious, Fellow Daoist Chen. My precious daughter was born when I was the fifteenth child. It took me nearly forty years to give birth to her. It wasn't easy at all."

The woman looked back with a look of dismay.

Ten...fifteen?

Chen An was also shocked. It turned out that this woman treated giving birth to a child as a lottery.

As long as you give birth to a child with good spiritual roots, the whole family can soar to the sky? Yes, yes, it really is true that every path can lead to immortality.

Chen An couldn't help but smile bitterly.

At this time, the woman carefully looked at the appearance of Chen An and Shen Qingyi, and couldn't help but said with envy:

"I have to say, you two are really good-looking, and the children you will have in the future will definitely be handsome and beautiful."

"Even if the offspring are not talented, they can still live a good life with their outstanding looks."

"Because if you give birth to a girl, she can marry into the Jindan family as a concubine, and if you give birth to a boy, he can marry into the Jindan family as a son-in-law, and the family is destined to be prosperous."

The woman had no ill intentions and was not cursing anyone; she was simply envious.

Chen An knew what the woman meant and felt ashamed.

This woman simply regards her child as a tool to climb up the social ladder.

It can’t be said to be wrong, but it can’t be said to be right either.

It just doesn't feel good.

On the other side, Shen Qingyi explained after hearing this: "Fellow Daoist Luo, you misunderstood. He and I are just friends, not husband and wife."

Just friends?

Not a couple?

Then why are you two still alone in the same room? The woman looked at Shen Qingyi with a strange look, suspecting that she was a Kun Xiu who came to provide services.
