Shen Qingyi rushed out.

Holding a long sword with a green sheath, he was about to kill the senior executive who had slapped the widow in the face.

She is extremely fast.

In just a moment, he rushed out more than a hundred meters and was only ten meters away from the senior management.

However! Just when she was about to swing her sword to kill the high-ranking official! Chen An reacted in time, and immediately used a nearly master-level immobilization technique on her.

Almost at the same time.

Shen Qingyi was instantly frozen in place, unable to move.

The senior manager in front of the spiritual fruit stall sensed that there seemed to be someone behind him, and his heart tightened and he turned around to look.

Fortunately, Chen An acted very quickly. He used the immobilization technique and the sleeping technique on him again, freezing him in place and making him drowsy and unconscious.

Then, before the widow in front of the spiritual fruit stall could react, Chen An rushed behind Shen Qingyi in an instant, picked her up skillfully, turned around and flashed back into the house, and closed the gate to the yard.

The whole process was done in one go.

It was just a blink of an eye.

…

Inside the house.

Hall.

The wives and daughters were in the room at this time.

Therefore, there were only Chen An and Shen Qingyi in the huge hall.

Shen Qingyi was still frozen in place, her heart filled with disbelief.

I, whose cultivation level is at the fourth level of foundation building, was pinned down by Chen An, whose cultivation level is only at the third level of foundation building?

Moreover, I taught him this immobilization technique not long ago! He just learned it not long ago! How can he use the immobilization technique to immobilize me?

Shen Qingyi doubted her life.

Chen An didn't know what Shen Qingyi was thinking at the moment, and he quickly came up with a plan to release her from the immobilization spell.

Shen Qingyi was able to move again, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Chen An had changed a lot.

In the past, Chen An was just an insignificant low-level cultivator in her eyes.

Now, Chen An not only relied on his outstanding looks to take advantage of her body.

Moreover, her previously weak strength caught up with her, easily pinning her down and making her unable to move.

And all this happened in just one year.

This is unbelievable! This is unbelievable!

Chen An ignored Shen Qingyi's strange look and said with a reproachful tone, "Fellow Daoist Shen, you were too impulsive just now."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingyi recalled the scene where the manager failed to molest the widow and resorted to violence.

She was immediately filled with anger and said in a murderous tone, "That person in charge should be killed!"

"The high-ranking official deserves to be killed, but have you ever thought about the consequences of killing him?"

Chen An looked into Shen Qingyi's eyes, and then said earnestly: "Fellow Daoist Shen, this is the redwood forest, not the bamboo forest. There are people stronger than you everywhere. If you kill the senior manager, can you deal with the Red Fire Gang afterwards?"

Shen Qingyi said nonchalantly: "If I can't handle it, the worst that can happen is that I die."

When Chen An heard this, he couldn't help but frowned slightly.

His tone was no longer calm, instead he accused her by name: "Shen Qingyi, you are too selfish."

"You killed the senior manager, you feel good."

"But have you ever thought about this? You are living in my house now. If you do that, it will implicate me and my family. Have you ever considered the feelings of me, my wife and daughter?"

Every word Chen An said was heart-wrenching. After Shen Qingyi calmed down and heard it, she felt ashamed.

Shen Qingyi pursed her lips and said apologetically, "Master Chen, I didn't think it through. I will move out now and won't bring trouble to your family."

After saying that, she turned around and walked towards her room, packed her luggage and left.

Chen An followed her in, walked behind her, picked her up, threw her on the bed, pressed on her, looked into her eyes, and asked, "Are you willing to leave this home?"

"I'm reluctant, but I have no choice."

Shen Qingyi didn't dare to look at Chen An and turned her face away.

Chen An didn't say anything, he just lowered his head and kissed Shen Qingyi.

After a long while, he stopped and asked, "Why is there no choice?"

Shen Qingyi's face was hot and her breathing was heavy. She had not yet recovered from the nearly suffocating kiss.

After catching her breath for a while, she looked into Chen An's eyes, pursed her lips and said, "Master Chen Dan, I can't help it. I can't help but help the weak and punish the evil. If I continue to live in this house, sooner or later I will implicate you and your wife and daughter like today."

"Then stay at home and go out less from now on. Out of sight, out of mind."

"But I can't do it."

"It's okay, I'll help you do it."

As Chen An spoke, he pulled out a belt from Shen Qingyi's waist. He stopped trying to persuade her with words and chose to convince her with actions.

Shen Qingyi knew the taste and did not refuse.

About an hour later.

[Swordsmanship +1, Gold Spiritual Root Aptitude +1] x9 Chen An looked at Shen Qingyi in his arms, reached out to tidy up her messy hair, and said in a gentle voice: "Fellow Daoist Shen, can you do it now?"

"I...I don't know."

Shen Qingyi's heart was full of conflicts. Deep down, she wanted to continue punishing evildoers, but she didn't want to leave this home and lose Chen An's daily warmth.

Chen An was silent, then said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, you should give it a try first, maybe you can do it."

"Um."

Shen Qingyi responded lightly and chose to obey.

…

Time flies.

Half a month later.

In Wen Zhiyun's room.

Chen An was using his spiritual sense to check on the condition of the baby in Wen Zhiyun's belly.

"Husband, how is the child?"

"Everything is fine."

"It's still normal, and it's still normal. Then why is it that now it's already 11 months of pregnancy, and there is still no sign of the baby being born?"

Wen Zhiyun was really anxious, so anxious that she hadn't slept well for several days.

But it was no use for her to be anxious.

But every time it showed that everything was normal and there was no reason why the baby had not yet been delivered.

"Yun'er, don't worry too much. Maybe our child has a special constitution and needs to grow longer in the womb."

Seeing that Wen Zhiyun was still worried, Chen An had to comfort her.

Hearing Chen An's words of comfort, Wen Zhiyun's anxiety was not relieved at all.

In the past few days, Chen An has been comforted by the same old words almost every day, and she has long been immune to it.

Given the current situation, she will not be at peace until the baby in her belly is born.

"Yun'er, you haven't slept well these days, go to bed early."

"I can't sleep."

"It's okay, your husband will hold you while you sleep."

Chen An helped Wen Zhiyun adjust her lying position and held her in his arms as they rested on the bed.

After a while.

Seeing that Wen Zhiyun still couldn't fall asleep, he used a sleeping spell to help her fall asleep quickly.

After coming out of the room.

Chen An left home.

He was going to go to the Wenliu Street Market to sell the small elixirs he had been refining during this period of time and exchange them for spirit stones that could be used for cultivation.

On the way to fly with a sword.

Chen An, who had excellent five senses, heard many residents discussing the same thing along the way.

It is said that a masked righteous man has recently appeared in Baicao Lane. He specializes in helping the weak and has stood up for many residents who have been bullied by the Chihuo Gang.

Every time he made a move, he would make the members of the Red Fire Gang flee in fear, which was very satisfying to watch.

Chen An felt that the behavior of this masked righteous man was very similar to Shen Qingyi.

For a moment, I became suspicious. Could this be Shen Qingyi?

But then I thought, Shen Qingyi has been staying at home well-behaved for the past half month, so it shouldn't be her.

soon.

Chen An arrived at Qin’s Trading Company.

As soon as the sword landed, the female employee of the store came out to greet him, smiling warmly:

"Daoyou, you are such a rare guest."

Ever since he bought the formation last time, Chen An has never visited the store again.

The female employee had been waiting for him for a long time.

After all, he had been too lavish before, spending more than one high-quality spirit stone at every turn.

After bringing Chen An into the store.

The female employee immediately poured him a cup of spiritual tea and said with a smile on her face: "I wonder what you want to buy this time?"

"Fellow Daoist is a distinguished guest of our Qin's Trading Company, so we can give you a certain discount on the price."

"I'm not here to buy anything this time."

"Then fellow Taoist is...?"

"I'm here to sell pills."

"Fellow Daoist, are you an alchemist?"

"Yes, a second-level alchemist."

"hiss!"

The female employee gasped, obviously not expecting Chen An to be a second-level alchemist.

Chen An didn't waste time talking to her and went straight to the point: "I have a total of 50 bottles of Xiao Huan Dan, each bottle contains 20 pills, I wonder how much they can be sold for?"

"I need to appraise it to determine the exact price."

The female employee looked at the medicine bottle that Chen An took out and placed on the tea table, and spoke in a pleasant voice.

After saying that, she skillfully pulled out the cork and identified the quality of the pill by its color, taste, and medicinal flavor.

During the appraisal, she did not neglect the guest Chen An, and she kept communicating with him with a smile while doing two things at the same time.

After a brief exchange.

Chen An found out that this female cultivator was not an employee of Qin's Trading Company.

Instead, she was the head of the Qin Trading Company and a daughter of the Qin family, a golden elixir family in the redwood forest.

This rich young lady is currently serving as the manager of this branch, making profits for the family.

"Master Chen, after my appraisal, I think the quality of your 50 bottles of Xiao Huan Dan is very good. I can buy them with one high-quality spirit stone."

Shopkeeper Qin, the female cultivator who had been mistaken by Chen An for a female employee, smiled and gave such a purchase price after looking at the quality of 30 bottles of Xiaohuandan.

This purchase price is in line with Chen An’s psychological expectations.

Therefore, there is no price increase.

Choose to sell directly.

Not long after, Chen An received a top-grade spirit stone from Shopkeeper Qin.

After that, he didn't waste any more time and flew back home on his sword.

Along the way.

Chen An still heard many residents below talking about the masked righteous man.

This time I heard more information.

This masked warrior of justice is a female nun.

Wearing white brocade clothes.

His swordsmanship is very advanced.

When you see injustice and help others, you only beat people, not kill them, and you only want to teach them a lesson.

"Female cultivator?"

"Excellent swordsmanship?"

Chen An had a bad feeling in his heart, and he felt more and more that the masked female hero was Shen Qingyi.
