Chapter 209: It’s Time to Take a Fox as a Concubine
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When the sky outside darkened, in the underground hall, the dining table was filled with all kinds of delicious dishes.
Eighteen dishes and three soups.
Among them, at least ten dishes and two soups were specially made for Chen Yi Ke.
It couldn’t be helped. This silly foodie’s appetite was really too big.
No matter how much she ate, she could not fill her stomach.
Moreover, she only ate and did not poop. She absorbed all the food.
It was a little inhumane.
Such a special physique was very heaven-defying even in this anti-scientific cultivation world.
“Husband, do you need me to call Jiu Ji out for dinner?”
Song Huaying asked gently.
Before Chen An could answer, Wen Zhiyun spoke first.
“Didn’t they say that fox demons only suck essence energy and don’t need to eat anything else?”
“In that case, I’ll feed her a few strands of essence energy regularly in the future. 1 guarantee that she won’t starve to death. There’s no need to let her eat at the table.”
Wen Zhiyun was filled with hostility towards Jiu Ji and was not friendly at all.
Gu Xinyue felt that it wasn’t good to do this. After hesitating for a moment, she said,
“Sister Wen, let Jiu Ji eat dinner with us. After all, we’ll be living under the same roof in the future. We’ll see each other often. It’s better not to make our relationship too strained.”
“So be it. What’s the big deal?”
Wen Zhiyun looked disapproving. She had never thought of interacting with Jiu Ji.
Clearly, she was more emotional than rational.
On the other hand, Shen Qingyi, who was beside her, was the exact opposite of her in this aspect. She was more rational than emotional.
Well, the premise was that other than punishing evil, as long as it had nothing to do with that, Shen Qingyi could basically ensure that she was rational enough when facing other things.
At this moment, Shen Qingyi felt that Jiu Ji would most likely join as the fifth wife in the future. She felt that there was really no need to make things unpleasant with this future sister.
Hence, she held the same view as Song Huaying and Gu Xinyue and advised Wen Zhiyun gently,
“Zhiyun, I know you don’t like Jiu Ji very much, but let her eat at the table.
Maybe we’ll be sisters in the future. There’s no need to do this.”
“Since Sister Shen has said so, let’s do as you say.”
Wen Zhiyun chose to compromise.
In this family, she would scold Chen An and educate Song Huaying and Gu Xinyue like a big sister.
However, when facing Shen Qingyi, who was nearly 20 years older than her, all her drive would disappear. She would soften and give in as if she was Shen Qingyi’s daughter.
Seeing that Wen Zhiyun had agreed, Shen Qingyi looked at Gu Xinyue and said, “Yue’er, please call Jiu Ji out to eat.”
“It’s no trouble.”
After saying that, Gu Xinyue stood up and left the hall. She went to the room to call Jiu Ji out.
From the beginning to the end, Chen An, as the head of the family, did not say a word. He watched quietly as his wives mediated on their own.
This was all in preparation for his future wives.
Now, he did not have many wives. He only had four. If he included Jiu Ji, who was a reserve member, he only had five.
It was very easy to take care of five wives.
However, what if he had ten, twenty, thirty, or even hundreds of wives in the future?
Could he manage so many wives easily alone?
There was no need to think. This was clearly impossible.
In order to solve this problem, he had to give up his power appropriately and let his wives produce their own leader, who was the empress of the harem.
This way, as the head of the family in the future, he could save a lot of trouble and be a carefree boss.
Soon, Jiu Ji was brought out by Gu Xinyue.
Under everyone’s gaze, Jiu Ji subconsciously lowered their heads, not daring to make eye contact with Chen An’s wives.
“Jiu Ji, come and sit down.”
Chen An waved at Jiu Ji and specially left a seat beside him between him and Song Huaying.
Jiu Ji nodded and silently walked to his side to sit down.
At this point, all the members of the family were at the table.
The banquet to celebrate Chen An’s successful passing of the test officially began.
Seeing that the banquet had begun, the silly second daughter immediately picked up a spoon in each hand and skillfully used the double spoon flow to stuff rice into her cherry-like mouth crazily.
In just a few breaths, she had finished a large bowl of rice.
Then, she ate more and continued at it!
Chen An and his wives and daughters were already used to this scene.
However, Jiu Ji, who had just arrived, was different.
She was dumbfounded. For a moment, she thought he was hallucinating.
What was going on with this young human girl?
How could she eat so much? Could it be gluttony in the flesh?
Jiu Ji was very shocked.
She was extremely shocked. She could not believe her eyes.
Seeing Jiu Ji’s shocked expression, Chen An thought that she knew something. He looked at her and asked, “Jiu Ji, do you know what kind of special physique my second daughter has?”
Chen An had always been very curious about the special physique of his second daughter.
Coincidentally, Jiu Ji was a Nine-Tailed Fox. Moreover, her family had a pair of parents who were Divine Transformation Realm Cultivators. She must have been born into such a family. She was far more knowledgeable than others. Perhaps she had seen such a special physique before.
Unfortunately, Jiu Ji disappointed Chen An.
This was also the first time she had seen someone like Chen Yi Ke with such a special physique. She did not know what this special physique was and could not give Chen An an answer.
Chen An was a little disappointed.
As time slowly passed, the sumptuous dinner was coming to an end.
Seeing that everyone was full, Chen An, as the head of the family, took a sip of soup to moisten his throat and announced in a low voice,
“I plan to take Jiu Ji as my concubine tomorrow. Do you have any thoughts?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire place fell silent. Even Jiu Ji, who was involved, were stunned.
Jiu Ji knew that she was going to devote herself to Chen An tomorrow night, but she had never thought that Chen An would choose to take her as his concubine directly. She had always thought that Chen An would treat her as a servant.
Hence, for a moment, she had mixed feelings.
“Husband, isn’t this too fast?”
Song Huaying hesitated for a moment before saying softly.
Is it fast? It was indeed quite fast.
However, he had no choice. Chen An could not wait to obtain the Water-type spiritual root and establish a husband-and-wife Relationship with Jiu Ji. He quickly raised the aptitude of the Water-type spiritual root to above high-grade.
From there, he could gather high-grade spiritual roots of all five elements to prepare to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
This was because if he wanted to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, he had to satisfy these two conditions.
The first was to gather all five element spiritual roots.
Secondly, the aptitude of the spiritual roots had to reach a high grade or above.
In order to satisfy these two conditions as soon as possible, he could only take in Jiu Ji as concubine as soon as possible.
As for cultivation, he was not worried at all.
This was because he could obtain the system reward from his two daughters.
As long as he could gather the five elements and increase the aptitude of all the spiritual roots to the high-grade, it would not be long before he could reach the Nascent Soul realm.
“Husband, you don’t have any feelings for her. What kind of marriage is this?”
Wen Zhiyun immediately jumped out to object.
Chen An said disapprovingly, “In the past, when Ying’er, Yue’er, and 1 got married, we didn’t have any feelings for each other either. But now, aren’t we equally loving?”
After saying that, he looked at Jiu Ji and asked, “What do you think of getting married tomorrow?”
“I’ll listen to Alchemist Chen.”
Jiu Ji replied without thinking. She did not dare to go against Chen An’s will at all.
Seeing that the situation was settled, Shen Qingyi played the role of the eldest sister in the family and expressed her opinion.
“Since Husband has already decided, this matter is settled. Tomorrow, we’ll all wake up early and dress Sister Jiu Ji up. At the same time, we’ll decorate the bridal room.”
“Sister Shen is right. Let’s get up early tomorrow and prepare together.”
Gu Xinyue supported him.
She and Shen Qingyi were sisters, master and disciple. No matter what decision Shen Qingyi made, she would support it.
Of course, the premise was that Shen Qingyi’s decision was not disadvantageous to Chen An.
No matter what, as her husband, Chen An would always be the most important person in Gu Xinyue’s eyes.
After settling the matter of marrying Jiu Ji,
Everyone dispersed.
They all returned to their rooms to rest or cultivate early.
That night, a Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly appeared in the house. Other than their two young daughters, the others were basically troubled and were thinking about something..
