As soon as the Red Fire Gang appeared.

The originally ownerless Baicao Lane now has an owner.

All residents felt very uneasy.

Everyone started talking about it.

Collecting 2 medium-grade spirit stones a month is too high and too heavy a burden for these low-level cultivators in Baicao Lane.

Although the income of cultivators in the Mountain and Sea Region is much higher than that in the Great Thousand Region.

But if you want to earn two medium-grade spirit stones per month, you have to be a cultivator at least in the late stage of Qi Refining to do it.

So for a while, the whole Baicao Lane was in chaos.

Many low-level monks who have low cultivation and cannot afford the shelter fees are looking for roommates.

Female cultivators who are slightly pretty would be directly made concubines.

If a male cultivator cannot become a concubine, he will send his wife and daughter to be concubines in order to survive in this difficult world.

…

Time flies.

In a blink of an eye.

Half a month passed.

night.

Chen An stayed with Wen Zhiyun in the room, massaging her with his skillful techniques.

Wen Zhiyun liked having her feet massaged, so she asked Chen Anduo to give her a massage. She groaned with every massage, her slender eyebrows tightly furrowed, and it was hard to tell whether she was uncomfortable or comfortable.

After enjoying the massage, Wen Zhiyun would reciprocate and serve Chen An in return.

More than an hour later.

Wen Zhiyun was a little tired, and she snuggled in Chen An's arms with her big belly.

She gently stroked her belly, which was already nine months pregnant and bulging, and looked at Chen An with loving eyes and asked:

"Husband, there is only one month left before the full tenth month of pregnancy. The baby in your belly will be born soon. Are you looking forward to it?"

"I have been dreaming about coaxing my child to sleep every night recently. Do you think I am looking forward to it?"

Chen An sat with his back against the headboard, playing with Wen Zhiyun's hair that fell on her chest with his hand, then looked down at her in his arms and smiled faintly.

Wen Zhiyun was happy to hear this and could truly feel Chen An's love for the baby in her belly.

But before long, she began to feel a little worried.

Now, there suddenly appears a Chihuo Gang in Baicao Lane, wanting to be the boss.

They charge high asylum fees.

This reminded her of the Bamboo Gang in the bamboo forest, and she worried that her hard-earned peaceful life would be disrupted.

"Husband, we have half a month to pay the asylum fee to the Red Fire Gang. What do you think Baicao Lane will look like by then? Will it become as chaotic as the Bamboo Leaf Forest before?"

Wen Zhiyun raised her head and looked at Chen An and asked, feeling very uneasy about this.

If she were still alone as before, she wouldn't have this feeling. The worst that could happen is that she would just move to another place to live.

But now when she thought of the baby in her belly, she really didn't want to run around for survival anymore.

I just want to live peacefully in one place.

"Don't worry. The reason the Bamboo Leaf Forest was in chaos before was because the Bamboo Leaf Gang and Black Iron Villa went to war. The days in Baicao Lane won't be as chaotic as in the Bamboo Leaf Forest."

Chen An said soothingly in a soft voice.

Having said that, he was actually not optimistic about it.

At that time, there was only one force in Zhuye Forest, the Zhuye Gang, and there was only external turmoil but no internal unrest.

Now, the power of the sects and families in the redwood forest is complicated and internal strife is inevitable.

Today, the Chihuo Gang has set its sights on Baicao Lane. It is hard to say whether other gangs or families will also set their sights on it tomorrow and then start a fight with the Chihuo Gang.

If you want to survive in the cracks, you have to be strong.

More than half an hour later.

Chen An looked at Wen Zhiyun who was completely asleep in his arms, kissed her gently on the face, laid her on her side on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and quickly got dressed, got out of bed and left the room.

He did not go back to his room to sleep, but went straight to Shen Qingyi's room.

After knocking on the door and being informed that I could come in, I pushed the door open and walked in.

Come into the room.

Chen An saw Shen Qingyi on the bed.

At this time, Shen Qingyi was sitting cross-legged on the bed practicing as usual. She was wearing a slim-fitting silk dress, which perfectly highlighted her curvy figure. She had a full body and ample curves, looking very attractive.

"You smell like another woman. Go wash it off, or I will resist it in my heart."

Seeing Chen An walk over to the bed and sit down, ready to touch her, Shen Qingyi frowned slightly and said.

It’s not that she doesn’t like Wen Zhiyun, she just has a bit of a cleanliness obsession.

Even if it was the scent of Song Huaying or Gu Xinyue, she would still feel resistant.

However, Chen An didn't listen to her. He just held her in his arms with the scent of Wen Zhiyun, and said to her softly, "Get used to it. It will happen often in the future. It's a matter of time. You can't avoid it."

"I am not your wife or concubine."

Shen Qingyi was a little dissatisfied. She just wanted to get along normally with Chen An and didn't want to play so many weird tricks.

Chen An smiled without saying anything. He then put away the night-shining pearl on the bedside table for lighting and began to gently undress Shen Qingyi.

Shen Qingyi was unwilling and asked Chen An to use the cleansing talisman before doing it again.

But after some refusals, seeing that Chen An still insisted on doing it with Wen Zhiyun's flavor, she finally gave in to him reluctantly.

More than two hours later.

The room fell silent.

Only two heavy breathing sounds seemed particularly clear in the dead of night.

"There won't be a next time!"

Shen Qingyi said with her back to Chen An, her voice full of resentment.

Chen Andang didn't hear it. He lay on his side and hugged her from behind. He smelled the fragrance from her hair and said softly:

"Fellow Daoist Shen, you have such a graceful figure and stunning appearance. It would be such a waste if you don't have a daughter to pass on your beauty."

"Don't even think about it!"

Shen Qingyi spoke in a firm tone. She did not obey Chen An blindly just because it was late at night and they were alone. Her mind was always clear.

Chen An didn't say anything. He was silent for a moment, then said seriously: "Fellow Daoist Shen, let's get married."

Shen Qingyi was silent.

After a while, she said with a hint of resentment in her voice: "Master Chen Dan, I really misjudged you. I always thought you were a gentleman who knew how to respect women's wishes. Now it seems that you are just a hypocrite who knows how to hide himself."

"I never said I was a gentleman."

Chen An hugged Shen Qingyi tighter and said with a shameless smile: "Fellow Daoist Shen, in fact, all men are the same. Once they have tasted the sweetness, they will want to get more. I am just following my heart."

"It's up to you to follow your heart. Anyway, I won't be your concubine, let alone bear your children."

"Okay, okay, no, no."

Chen An stroked Shen Qingyi's hair and said, no longer talking to her about these nonsense.

It's only a matter of time anyway, so just agree to her verbally and we can talk about the future later. There's no need to rush.

After all, he has already taken advantage of Shen Qingyi's body, and all that's left is for him to fall in love with her over time and slowly win her heart.

By that time, even if I don't mention it, Shen Qingyi will probably take the initiative to say that she wants to get married and have children.

Chen An thought confidently in his heart.

In the following late night, the two stopped lingering and instead started chatting about the Red Fire Gang.

Analyze the future situation in Baicao Lane and whether the Chihuo Gang will become another Zhuye Gang.

Chen An has been analyzing in a calm tone.

In contrast to him, Shen Qingyi seemed a little angry and said without any concealment that she wanted to kill the people from the Chihuo Gang.

Because in the past half month, she had seen the Red Fire Gang bullying residents outside many times.

Eat without paying, just take whatever is available.

He often extorts money from shop owners or makes trouble.

When seeing a good-looking female cultivator, even if she is a married woman, he would go up and tease her.

She even flirts with the other woman directly in front of her husband, as if she wants to enjoy the inexplicable pleasure of being in front of her husband.

If it weren't for the fact that they had just arrived and should have been more restrained, Shen Qingyi really wanted to chop all these thugs from the Chihuo Gang to death.

Feeling Shen Qingyi's anger in his arms, Chen An hurried to help her cool down, lest she could not help but go out to punish the evildoers and bring herself unnecessary trouble.

The redwood forest today is different from the bamboo forest of the past. There are powerful Jindan masters here.

With Shen Qingyi's current cultivation level of the fourth foundation building level, she cannot run around punishing evil without scruples.

…

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.

During this period, Chen An practiced diligently, and his cultivation in the third level of foundation building became more solid.

At the same time, he persisted in learning magic from Shen Qingyi every day.

The most useful spell I learned was a spell called "Tian Gang Body Protection".

This spell can only be learned by cultivators with manifest golden spiritual roots.

It is similar to the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt in the previous life, but it is a super enhanced version.

As long as the proficiency is high enough, when performing the technique, one can withstand the full force attack of a cultivator who is one small realm higher than oneself.

This day.

Chen An got up early and asked Shen Qingyi to help him check his learning results of "Tian Gang Body Protection" in the yard.

During these days, he gained a lot of experience from his daughter Chen Yuejian, and successfully raised his proficiency in "Tian Gang Body Guard" to the proficient level. He was looking forward to the defensive power of this spell.

"Master Chen, I'm going to get on."

After a brief exchange, the two of them stopped wasting time and began to test the results of "Tian Gang Body Protection".

Chen An defended and Shen Qingyi attacked.

In the first attack, Shen Qingyi was afraid of hurting Chen An, so she only used less than 50% of her strength.

Chen An was unharmed and said, "Continue."

Shen Qingyi attacked him again.

The second attack uses 60% of the strength.

Chen An stood still like a mountain.

The third strike...

The fourth strike...

The fifth strike...

The sixth strike, full strength!

Chen An remained as still as a mountain.

Looking at Chen An who was still unharmed in front of her, Shen Qingyi was full of doubts about her life.

She was puzzled and asked, "You are obviously just an alchemist, why is your body so strong?"

"No, my body is average, but what is strong is the protection of the Heavenly Gang."

"But you have just learned the Tian Gang Body Protection."

"I have just learned it, but I have already practiced it to the second level of proficiency."

"?"

Shen Qingyi thought she had heard it wrong.

She thought to herself that she had only taught Chen An the Tiangang Body Protection for less than ten days, and Chen An only had a superficial understanding at best. How could he possibly cultivate to the second level?

You know, I practiced hard for more than 20 years before I finally reached the second level.

It took a whole year just to cultivate to the first level of entry.

Seeing her face full of shock, Chen An couldn't help but go up to her and tease her, "Friend Shen, you see I'm such a genius, even if you marry me as a concubine, it won't be a loss at all."

"lecher!"

Shen Qingyi rarely cursed, and after that she turned around and left, returning to her room and never coming out again.

Chen An thought about it, then followed her into her room.

In a blink of an eye.

Time goes from dawn in the early morning to sunset in the afternoon.

[Swordsmanship +1, Gold Spiritual Root Aptitude +1] x69 Chen An had just come out of Shen Qingyi's room and took a look at the pop-up prompt message without any fluctuation in his heart.

I've seen it so many times and I've become accustomed to it that it no longer causes any emotional fluctuations.

The only thing that can cause his emotions to fluctuate now is if the relationship level between the couple breaks through 5 stars, or if the relationship level between father and daughter breaks through, and then he can get a system reward.

After dinner.

Chen An was dragged by Song Huaying to the bathroom to take a bath together.

After soaking, go to the room to enhance your relationship.

In the room.

Song Huaying was so tired that she lay on Chen An and didn't want to move. She asked weakly:

"Husband, Sister Wen's baby is about to be born. Have you decided on a name for the baby?"

"I have already given full authority to your sister Wen to name the child. If you are really curious, you can go ask your sister Wen yourself tomorrow."

Chen An said as he closed his eyes.

When Song Huaying heard this, she immediately became jealous.

She pouted her rosy cherry lips and said unhappily, "My husband, you are biased. You give Sister Wen more love than you give me!"

"You are all treated equally by your husband."

"You didn't!"

"For my husband."

"Then I will also name my second child in the future!"

"no problem."

Chen An agreed without thinking.

It doesn’t matter what the child is named, as long as it has his last name.

As for the rest, it’s fine as long as my wives and concubines like it.

Song Huaying was stunned. She didn't expect Chen An to agree so readily. She thought she would have to act like a spoiled child and throw tantrums for a while before she could get the right to name the child.

After she recovered from her shock, she urged Chen An impatiently, "Husband, don't just lie there, get up and work. I want to give you another child!"

"Okay, okay, life, life."

Chen An stood up helplessly and said with a wry smile.

Although this may sound a bit biased, among the four female companions in the room, his favorite is his young wife Song Huaying.

As long as it was his little wife's request, he would basically nod and agree without even thinking about it.

Time flies.

Eyes closed and opened.

The sky outside the window, which was originally pitch black, suddenly became bright.

Chen An sat up from the bed and his eyes fell on the prompt message in front of him.

[Alchemy Experience +4] x28 [You promised your wife Song Huaying that she would name the next child. She was very happy about this. Marriage and Relationship +1+3+1+4+5+2+0...]

【Name: Song Huaying】

【Cultivation: None】

[Attribute: A drop of water should be repaid with a spring of gratitude]

[Emotion: 4 stars (2905/12500)]

"Only 2905 affection points."

"If you want to raise the emotional level to 5 stars, you have a long way to go."

Chen An thought to himself, then wiped the saliva from the corner of his wife's mouth while she was still sleeping beside him, covered her with a quilt, then quietly got dressed, got out of bed and left the room.

We stayed up too late last night. My little wife is just a mortal and needs to sleep longer. We can't wake her up now.

Leave the room.

Wash up.

Chen An walked towards the kitchen to see if his concubine Bingzha was making breakfast inside, intending to get something to eat.

Walk into the kitchen.

Just as expected.

Bingzhazi's concubine Gu Xinyue was making breakfast inside, and her back looked very virtuous.

Chen An came forward and hugged her delicate body from behind, resting his chin on her shoulders, and asked face to face: "Yuer, what kind of porridge are you cooking?"

"Husband, I'm making spiritual fish porridge. I've added spiritual ginseng, dragon bone grass, and phoenix feather leaves to it. It's very good for your body."

Gu Xinyue answered with a faint smile while stirring the porridge in the pot.

Upon hearing this, Chen An couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and teased her, "Lunch is very nutritious, dinner is very nutritious, and now even breakfast has to be very nutritious, three meals a day are nutritious, why do you need so much, do you think your husband's energy is not strong enough?"

"No, I just think that life is better now, so I want to eat better every meal."

"My husband doesn't believe it."

"Husband, it's true."

Gu Xinyue didn't understand the implicit meaning of the words and felt that she was very wronged.

Chen An smiled and picked her up, saying, "Whether it's true or not, your husband is too full now, and needs to be consumed. He can't just take in without giving out."

“…”

[Spiritual Sense Strength +4] x33 Soon, the four people in the room woke up.

Chen An and Gu Xinyue brought the prepared breakfast to the hall.

The six of them sat together and started to enjoy.

"Daddy, can you feed me?"

Chen Yuejian turned her body slightly, raised her increasingly beautiful face, looked at Chen An, and asked with her eyes twinkling.

Chen An wanted to say yes.

But before she could open her mouth to speak, Song Huaying, who was sitting next to her daughter, spoke up first:

"Chen Yuejian, you are already so old, and you still need your dad to feed you? Eat by yourself quickly!"

After hearing what his little wife said, Chen An took back the words that had just come out of his mouth.

He promised his little wife.

In the future, I should consider my little wife more.

Don't spoil your daughter too much.

Chen Yuejian glanced at her father and saw that he had no intention of feeding her, so she could only pick up the spoon and eat by herself with grievance.

She probably realized that Daddy loved Mom more.

Just at this moment!

The deep voice of the leader of the Red Fire Gang came from the Samadhi Tower located in the center of Baicao Lane, and spread throughout the entire Baicao Lane like ripples in the water.

"To all residents of Baicao Lane, the one-month deadline has come. Please prepare your asylum fees and wait at home. A steward will come to collect them soon!"
