The next morning, Chen An woke up early and looked at the notification in front of him, as well as the progress bar of his Alchemy Technique.

“Soon. I’m just short of 208 EXP.”
Looking at the progress bar that was about to be full, Chen An woke up from his daze.
Then, he put away the notification, put on his clothes, and got out of bed. He went to the next room to see his daughter.
His daughter was sleeping soundly. Her little mouth was instinctively sucking her thumb, looking very cute.
After taking out her thumb and covering her with a better blanket, Chen An quickly left the room.
After a simple wash up, he went to the alchemy room to carry the medicine box and went to the market to sell medicinal pills.
He should have gone last night.
However, Deacon Tang’s sudden visit last night made his wives feel that it was very dangerous to go out at night. They refused to let him go no matter what.
He had no choice but to delay it until this morning.
Market, Treasure Hall.
When Chen An entered, he saw Shopkeeper Liu nodding and bowing to a woman with a smile.
He was very humble and looked very submissive.
Who was this woman?
Why did a dignified treasure shopkeeper have to curry favor with her so humbly?
With this doubt in his heart, Chen An secretly sized up the woman in front of the counter from the corner of his eye.
She looked to be nearly 30 years old. She was dressed in black and had a high ponytail. There was a green sheathed sword at her waist. Her beautiful eyes were like lightning, and she had a valiant aura. She was dressed like a heroine.
Soon, the woman took a key from Shopkeeper Liu and turned to walk upstairs to the guest room.
After entertaining the woman, Shopkeeper Liu immediately greeted Chen An warmly.
“Alchemist Chen, are you here to sell medicinal pills again?”
“That’s right.”
Chen An carried the medicine box and walked over. He placed the medicine box on the counter and took out all the pills inside for Shopkeeper Liu to inspect.
Then, he asked curiously, “Shopkeeper Liu, who is that woman full of heroic spirit just now? She looks very noble.”
“She’s a core disciple of the Xuanhuang Sect who’s here to oversee the Treasure Hall. How can she not be noble?”
“Core disciple of the Xuanhuang Sect?”
Chen An’s interest was piqued. He couldn’t help but ask in a low voice curiously, “Shopkeeper Liu, um… do you know what her cultivation level is?”
Shopkeeper Liu: “1 don’t know the exact details. 1 only know that she’s a Foundation Establishment expert.”
Chen An was stunned when he heard this. This woman clearly looked so young, but she was a Foundation Establishment expert. As expected of a core disciple of the Xuanhuang Sect.
Soon, he asked again, “By the way, Shopkeeper Liu, what did you mean by holding down the fort just now?”
Shopkeeper Liu replied, “Actually, it’s nothing. It’s just that the Xuanhuang Sect is worried that the Treasure Hall will be affected by the war between the two factions, so they specially sent a Foundation Establishment expert to guard it.”
Chen An smiled and said, “Your Treasure Hall has the backing of the Xuanhuang Sect. Who would dare to find trouble with you?”
Shopkeeper Liu said disapprovingly, “That’s not necessarily the case. There are all kinds of birds in the forest. It’s the same for people. Once there are too many, there will always be a few brainless ones.”
Chen An nodded and felt that it made sense.
After that, the two of them chatted for a while.
After trading all the medicinal pills to spirit stones, Chen An carried the medicine box and turned to leave.
At this moment, he saw the female disciple of the Xuanhuang Sect walk down from upstairs. From the angle, he could see her face clearly.
Her facial features were exquisite and her skin was very fair. In terms of looks, she was on par with the three wives in the family.
It was just that her figure looked a little inferior. He did not know if it was because the scale was like this to begin with, or if she had specially wrapped it tightly with a cloth belt to make it easier to move.
On the whole, she was an extremely outstanding female warrior. It made people want to conquer her.
If only he could take her in as a concubine…
As soon as this thought appeared, Chen An immediately pinched himself hard and quickly dismissed this suicidal thought.
The other party was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. She was not someone a weak Qi Refining Cultivator like him could easily conquer.
If he wanted to find a wife, he had to find someone weaker. He could not find someone stronger than him.
Otherwise, if he could not control her, there would be many troubles in the future.
As for Wen Zhiyun becoming his concubine, he had not considered this aspect back then.
Fortunately, Wen Zhiyun was just arrogant and had never thought of using her strength on him. Otherwise, the entire family would have been in chaos.
Not long after, Chen An left the Treasure Hall.
As soon as he entered the house, his wives came over to help him take down the medicine box and bring him breakfast. They were especially virtuous.
After breakfast, Chen An cast a Sleepy Time Spell on his daughter and let her go back to her room to sleep.
Then, he went to chat with his wives.
About an hour later…

Chen An sat up from the bed and was stunned when he saw the content of the first notification.
Soon, he lowered his head and looked at his wife, Song Huaying. When he saw his wife frowning slightly and looking a little uncomfortable, he immediately realized that he had been focused on pursuing the breakthrough in alchemy and had neglected his wife’s physical condition.
He had to remedy it! He had to recover the feelings he had lost!
As he thought about this, Chen An reached out and caressed Song Huaying’s little face. He said gently,
“Ying’er, it’s my fault. I didn’t notice your physical condition and made you suffer.”
“Husband, Ying’er is fine.”
Song Huaying forced a smile. Although she was clearly feeling unwell and her willow-shaped eyebrows were slightly furrowed, she did not express the complaints in her heart.
Chen An knew very well that words were empty and powerless.
Hence, he gently turned Song Huaying over and let her lie on the bed. Then, he said to her gently,
“My Ying’er is so tired. 1 have to reward you and massage you.”
“Husband, there’s no need… Ah ~”
Before Song Huaying could finish speaking, Chen An had already started pressing the button.
He knew that his wife’s legs were very numb now, so he massaged her thigh first to relax her plump thigh flesh, promote blood circulation, and expel the lactic acid build up.
Gu Xinyue and Wen Zhiyun, who were on the same bed, were envious. They asked Chen An to massage the two of them after he was done massaging Song Huaying.
Chen An refused decisively. If everyone gets a massage, what was the point of him massaging his wife now?
He had to massage his wife alone and give her some special treatment. Only then could he appease himself for overworking her body just now.
As expected, when Song Huaying heard Chen An say that he would only give her a massage, her beautiful eyes immediately became teary.
She turned her head slightly and looked up at Chen An, who was massaging her with all his might. Her eyes were filled with emotion as she said gently, “Husband…”
“Don’t talk. Enjoy it.”
Chen An focused on giving his wife a full-body massage. He massaged her from the bottom of her feet to the top of her head, making her feel an unprecedented enjoyment.
