Chapter 237 - 237: Sage Tree
When Chen Yi Ke heard this, she was stunned at first. Then, her face immediately fell, looking like she wanted to cry.
Seeing this, Chen An immediately took out the dozen or so bird eggs he had bought from his storage ring as if he was performing magic.
As soon as she saw the bird egg, the silly daughter instantly beamed.
Time flew by.
In the days that followed, the family’s life was peaceful and happy.
Everyone used to live a precarious life.
Now, his wives and daughters could walk out of the cave abode without any worries and socialize with their neighbors at the door.
Such days made them feel exceptionally happy and satisfied.
Chen An was the same now his life was much easier.
He would refine pills every day and complete the annual quota set by the Alchemy Hall. He would either bring Wen Zhiyun to the public alchemy room to teach her how to refine pills. When there was no one else, he could secretly make love to her. He could also refine more pills to sell in the market and use the spirit stones he earned to refine and cultivate.
Days passed just like that.
Unknowingly, more than half a month had passed.
That night, Chen An was entangled with Shen Qingyi in his room when he suddenly sensed that the seed of the Sage Tree outside had sprouted and was growing at an unbelievable speed. He could not help but stop in shock.
“Husband, what’s wrong?”
Seeing him suddenly stop, Shen Qingyi couldn’t help but ask curiously.
Chen An explained, “I sensed that the seed I planted more than half a month ago had germinated and instantly grew into a tree that was more than three meters tall. This is too magical.”
Hearing her husband say this, Shen Qingyi immediately spread out her divine consciousness. When she sensed that it was really as Husband had said, she was shocked.
It had just germinated and already grew to more than three meters tall?
What kind of tree was this? How could it be so heaven-defying?
Shen Qingyi was puzzled.
She had grown up in the Xuanhuang Sect since she was young and had an irreconcilable elder adoptive father. Her knowledge far exceeded her peers.
But even so, she had never seen such a ridiculous tree. She had never even heard of it.
“Husband, let’s get out of bed and take a look.”
Shen Qingyi was very curious. As she spoke, she got up to put on her clothes and go out to see what was going on.
However, she had only sat up halfway when Chen An pressed her back down.
“Husband?”
“Don’t be anxious. We’ll take a look after we’re done.”

“Husband, let’s go out and see what’s going on.”
Shen Qingyi casually picked up the undergarments beside her and hung them up. She pulled Chen An along and used the Earth Escape Technique to escape to the fence.
Immediately after, what greeted their eyes was a huge tree with a trunk as thick as a bucket. Its branches were filled with roots and leaves were very dense.
“Husband, this tree is clearly only three meters tall. How can the trunk be so thick?”
Shen Qingyi had never seen such a strange tree. She felt that her horizons had been broadened this time.
Chen An lied and said, “I don’t know either. I bought this seed from a street stall in the market. At that time, I saw that the seed looked a little strange, so I bought it and planted it.”
“How much did you buy it for?”
“One low-grade spirit stone.”
“Only one low-grade spirit stone?” Shen Qingyi was a little surprised, but then she said happily, “Husband, then we’ve picked up a bargain. This tree is not simple at first glance.”
Just as the couple was chatting and sizing up the Sage Tree in front of them, a pair of eyes suddenly opened on the trunk of the Sage Tree.
His eyes were filled with wisdom. His gaze landed on Chen An and Shen Qingyi in front of him and he sized them up curiously.
“Husband, why does this tree have eyes?!”
Shen Qingyi was a little shocked and instinctively took out a long sword from her storage bag. She was very vigilant.
In comparison, Chen An was much calmer.
He believed that the system’s products would definitely be top-notch. There would definitely not be a situation where it devoured its owner.
As expected, the Sage Tree in front of him spoke in an ancient voice.
“Is… is this my Master and Madam in this life?!”
“Ahhh!”
“Master is so handsome and Madam is so beautiful. Even the scorching sun and moon in the sky pale in comparison to Master and Madam and feel ashamed of their inferiority!”
“How many blessings did I cultivate in my previous lives to be able to grow up in Master and Madam’s house in this life?”
“Even if I die on the spot, I can die in peace.”
“Master, Madam, you’re the ones who gave me a new life in this life. I’m willing to climb mountains of blades and enter seas of fire for Master and Madam. Even if I die a horrible death, I won’t hesitate!”
Chen An and Shen Qingyi were stunned when they heard the Sage Tree’s praise and loyalty.
What was going on with this tree?
Why was he flattering them the moment he opened his mouth?
Also, what did this mean in the previous and present lives?
This tree had reincarnated?
The couple was puzzled.
After a moment of recovery, Chen An asked the Sage Tree, “Can you introduce yourself to us?”
“Handsome, elegant, sage-like, and peerless Master, what are you talking about? I’m your most loyal servant. As long as it’s your order, I have to follow it. Why are you asking for my opinion?”
The Sage Tree fawned on Chen An crazily. Its bootlicking skills were very good.
Chen An was dumbfounded. Was this Mr. Tree who taught people or a popular eunuch who sucked up to others?
As he thought about it, he said, “Alright, let’s not talk about such nonsense.
Hurry up and introduce yourself..”
