Chapter 173: One Punch Man
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Redwood Forest, Hundred Herbs Alley.
Chen An had just flown to the sky above his family’s tunnel when he heard a series of overlapping sounds coming from the tunnel.
It was the sound of his eldest daughter, Chen Yuejian, playing the zither, and his second daughter, Chen Yi Ke, practicing boxing.
“The daughters are so hardworking…”
Hearing the sounds made by his two daughters, Chen An could not help but reveal a gratified smile.
The depression he had just felt from the fox demon breaking its tail and escaping instantly disappeared.
He descended on his sword, walked into the tunnel and arrived at the hall.
Chen An saw his four wives sitting around the dining table in the hall. Everyone’s faces were filled with worry.
Clearly, they were all worried because their husbands had returned much later.
“Husband, why are you back so late again!”
“Also, why didn’t you reply to the voice transmission we sent you!”
Seeing that Chen An had finally returned, Wen Zhiyun immediately stood up and questioned him coldly.
When Chen An heard this, he said apologetically, “It’s my fault for not replying to your voice transmission. This is indeed my fault. 1 often forget about this when I’m busy.”
“However, this is all for a reason. On the way back from the market, I encountered that troublesome fox demon again.”
What?!
Did he encounter that fox demon again?
The expressions of his wives changed. They were very surprised, as well as a hint of worry and fear.
“Husband, what’s going on? Why do you encounter that fox demon every time you go out?”
Song Huaying’s face was filled with puzzlement. After saying that, he continued, “The Redwood Forest is clearly so big, but you encounter that fox demon every time. This doesn’t make sense.”
Shen Qingyi thought for a moment and voiced her guess. “Husband, could it be that the fox demon left a divine consciousness mark on you?”
Has he been marked?
Hearing this, Gu Xinyue instantly felt terrible and was very worried for her husband.
However, the next moment, Chen An’s words made her heave a sigh of relief.
Chen An said, “The possibility is not high. Although my cultivation level is only at the first level of the Golden Core Realm, the strength of my divine consciousness is not inferior to a ninth level Golden Core Realm Cultivator.”
“As for that fox demon’s cultivation, based on the few times I’ve interacted with it, it’s probably only at the intermediate stage of the Golden Core realm.” “Other than her mental strength being stronger than mine, her physical body and divine consciousness are weaker than mine. It’s impossible for her to plant a divine consciousness mark on me without me noticing.”
“Besides, if she really planted a divine consciousness mark on me, she would have followed the mark to our house long ago. Why would she need to look for me everywhere?”
Chen An’s words were reasonable.
Shen Qingyi nodded. “That’s true. Husband is right. I didn’t consider it.” “Husband, is that fox demon still a threat to you now?” Gu Xinyue asked worriedly.
“It shouldn’t be a threat anymore.” In order to reassure his wives, Chen An deliberately said confidently, “That fox demon is like a cockroach that’s difficult to kill. Perhaps she can escape from me, but she definitely won’t be able to hurt me at all.”
Hearing him say this, the four wives were much more relieved.
Song Huaying moved to his side and sat down close to him. She held his arm intimately and said with her red lips as sweet as honey, “Husband is really impressive. I feel that in less than two years, he will definitely be able to reach the Nascent Soul realm.”
“You only know how to be glib with your words, such smooth tongued.” Chen An pinched his wife’s cherry lips and smiled.
Song Huaying’s beautiful eyes curved into a sweet smile as she said, “My tongue isn’t smooth. My husband’s tongue is smooth. It can move nimbly like an earthworm and likes to burrow around.”
When the other three wives heard this, their faces turned red.
Among them, Wen Zhiyun could not help but roll her eyes at Song Huaying. She said angrily, “You really don’t learn from the good. You’ve been led astray by Husband. You don’t say anything serious.”
At this moment, the sound of running came from the corridor ahead.
It was Chen Yi Ke who rushed out of the room.
It looked like a blind mud cart that hit her father’s thigh with a thud.
Then, she skillfully opened her hands and hugged her father’s thigh. She raised her face and shouted,
“Father, I want to play seesaw!!!”
Her voice was so loud that it made everyone’s ears ring.
Wen Zhiyun pulled Chen Yi Ke over and glared at her. “You silly girl, just speak. Why are you shouting so loudly?!”
“Mother, I want to play seesaw!!!”
As if she did not understand human language, Chen Yi Ke opened her mouth and shouted at the top of her lungs again.
Wen Zhiyun was numb. She suddenly felt that it was better for the silly girl’s daughter not to learn to speak, lest she screamed at the top of her lungs all day like now.
Soon, Chen Yi Ke got her wish and played with the seesaw.
[You played seesaw with your daughter, Chen Yi Ke. Father-daughter Relationship +1.]
On the other hand, Shen Qingyi had been very curious about how her husband dealt with the fox demon. As she thought about it, she asked,
“Husband, I want to know how you dealt with that fox demon’s charm technique?”
As soon as he said this, the other three wives looked at Chen An.
Actually, they were also quite curious about this matter.
Chen An had never treated his wives as outsiders. Since his wives asked, he told them everything.
However, he held back some details, and only gave a rough idea.
He did not describe in detail the techniques and ultimate techniques rewarded by the system, such as the Art of the Sage, the Deliberate Fist, the Evil Dragon Roar, and so on.
It was not that he was guarding against his wives, but he simply felt that if his wives knew too much, there was a risk that his trump card would be exposed.
After all, this was the cultivation world. There were all kinds of secret techniques.
For example, Memory Search, Hypnotic Questioning, and so on.
He was worried that after his wives found out about his trump cards, they might become his weakness in the future, or rather, a target.
It was night time.
After dinner, the family of seven sat and chatted for a while. Soon, they went to do their own things.
That night, Chen An was not in a hurry to find his wives.
Instead, he hid in the alchemy room alone to learn how to refine Level 3 medicinal pills.
He was prepared to participate in the Heaven Earth Sect’s Alchemy Hall test in half a year.
His wives all knew this, so they were very sensible and did not disturb him. If they had needs, they would try their best to resolve it themselves and not trouble him.
“Bang!”
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
“Bang! Bang!”
While Chen An was refining pills, the dull sound of boxing kept coming from the room next door.
This was the sound of his second daughter, Chen Yi Ke, practicing her boxing.
Because next door to the alchemy room was Wen Zhiyun’s room.
Wen Zhiyun was a Fire Spirit Cultivator. Her body was more resistant to heat, so he built the alchemy room next to her room.
“Bang!”
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
“Bang!”
“This little girl is really hard working.”
When Chen An heard the continuous sounds of boxing, he could not help but praise his second daughter in his heart.
Right at this moment!
Suddenly, there was a bang in front!
Then, the wall between Wen Zhiyun’s room and the alchemy room collapsed! His daughter:”!!!”
Father:”???”
The silly girl’s second daughter stood in her mother’s room and stared at her father, who was sitting in the alchemy room, through the wall that she had smashed with her fist..
