“Even the Dark Forces Department has been mobilized. What exactly happened?”
“They said that someone has committed a crime. Could it be that someone has offended the Holy Maiden?”
“No matter what it is, as long as it doesn’t affect us.”

As soon as the masked man finished speaking, the Cultivators in the cave abode area discussed.
While everyone was watching the show, they were more worried, afraid that they would be accidentally injured.
When Chen An heard the word ‘Dark Forces Department’, he felt that it was very unfamiliar. He turned to look at Deacon Lin, who lived next door, and asked,
“Deacon Lin, what is the Dark Forces Department?”
“Deacon Chen, you don’t know?”
Deacon Lin was extremely surprised. For a moment, he thought that he had heard wrongly.
Chen An said, “Deacon Lin, you might not know this, but 1 just moved over from the Great Thousand Domain not long ago. I don’t know much about the Heaven Earth Sect.”
“So that’s the case. I was wondering why there were still people who didn’t know about the Heaven Earth Sect’s secret faction.”
Deacon Lin nodded in realization. Then, he smiled and explained to Chen An, “Deacon Chen, the Dark Forces Department is the core power of the Heaven Earth Sect. There are a total of ten people, and every one of them is an elder-level Nascent Soul Cultivator.”
“They are a faction nurtured by the Sect Master’s lineage. They only obey orders from the Sect Master and the Holy Maiden.”
“Because of this, the authority of the Dark Forces Department in the Heaven Earth Sect is extremely huge. They can do whatever the Law Enforcement Hall can do, but they can still do what the Law Enforcement Hall can’t.”
After hearing Deacon Lin’s words, Chen An understood.
This so-called Dark Forces Department was the private army that the
Grandmaster had used to consolidate his rule over the Heaven Earth Sect.
Soon, the flying ship stopped in the sky above the cave abode area.
It covered the sky.
The cave abode area immediately darkened.
Immediately after, the Holy Maiden and the members of the Dark Forces Department on the boat rode their swords out together and flew in five directions in the cave abode area.
Chen An’s senses were wide open. He used his human vision and hearing to observe everything.
In the end, he found that the Holy Maiden and the people from the Dark Forces Department had come to search the house.
They entered all the cave abodes to search.
As for the reason for the search, there was no way to know.
The people of the Dark Forces Department were all silent. They were focused on searching the cave abode. No one knew what they were searching for.
About a quarter of an hour later, Chen An saw the Holy Maiden flying towards him with two members of the Dark Forces Department.
Seeing this, Deacon Lin, who was next door, could not help but say nervously, “Deacon Chen, it’s our turn. 1 hope nothing will happen.”
In the blink of an eye, the Holy Maiden and the two members landed.
“The two of you are in charge of searching the four cave abodes outside. Leave the one inside to me.”
Ning Xian’er said to the two members of the Dark Forces Department.
The two members heard the order and quickly began to search.
“Husband, the Holy Maiden is walking towards us.”
Wen Zhiyun held Chen An’s arm and said nervously.
As for the other two wives, Shen Qingyi had a calm expression while Jiu Ji had a curious expression.
Jiu Ji’s gazes fell on Ning Xian’er, sizing up her pure and flawless face, sizing up her graceful figure in a long white dress, constantly comparing her to themselves.
“Deacon Chen, long time no see.”
Ning Xian’er looked at Chen An and smiled brightly at him.
This smile was like a hundred flowers blooming, instantly making one feel happy.
Jiu Ji, Shen Qingyi, and Wen Zhiyun all felt a sense of danger.
This Holy Maiden was too beautiful. Their husband’s soul was probably going to be taken away by her.
If this Holy Maiden really became her husband’s wife one day, life at home would be uncomfortable in the future.
After all, this was the Holy Maiden of the Heaven Earth Sect. Her status in the Heaven Earth Sect was extraordinary. After entering, she would most likely not consider herself as a younger sister. Instead, she would have to become the Mistress of the Heaven Earth Sect. Otherwise, she would be letting down her status as the Holy Maiden of the Heaven Earth Sect.
Chen An did not know that the three wives beside him had so many tricks up their sleeves. He only smiled admiringly at Ning Xian’er and said respectfully, “Holy Maiden, long time no see.”
The other three wives were very sensible and shouted, “Hello, Lord Holy Maiden.”
“Everyone can just call me the Holy Maiden. There’s no need to add the word
‘Lord’.”
After saying that, Ning Xian’er looked at Chen An and smiled faintly. “I’m here today on the Sect Master’s orders to search the cave abode area. Deacon Chen, please cooperate with me and bring me into your residence to search.”
“Holy Maiden, please come in.”
Chen An said respectfully.
Then, accompanied by him and his three wives, Ning Xian’er walked into the cave abode.
After entering, Ning Xian’er didn’t have much intention of searching. Instead, she looked more like she was looking around, curiously sizing up the interior style of the cave abode.
At this moment, Song Huaying, Gu Xinyue, and her two daughters were already awake.
His two daughters were listening to Elder Tree’s lecture. Song Huaying was bored and accompanied him at the side. Gu Xinyue had just finished making breakfast and walked out of the kitchen.
Seeing a stranger enter, the four of them and the tree looked at Ning Xian’er.
Then, other than the silly second daughter who only had eyes for food, the other three and one tree were all stunned by Ning Xian’er’s beauty.
A good looking young girl! Who the hell was this?
Why was she walking with her husband, father, and master?
In order to prevent his wives and daughters from saying the wrong thing to Elder Tree, Chen An immediately introduced, “This is the Holy Maiden of our Heaven Earth Sect. She has come to the cave abode to search because something happened. Everyone, you have to cooperate well.”
Song Huaying: “Greetings, Holy Maiden.”
Chen Yuejian: “Hello, Holy Maiden.”
Elder Tree: “Greetings, Holy Maiden.”
Chen Yi Ke:”…”
The Elder Tree was very eye-catching. He didn’t bootlick to Ning Xian’er like he usually did. He was worried that if he said too much, he would make too many mistakes and provoke this big shot.
Chen Yi Ke, on the other hand, was a little afraid of strangers. She hid behind Song Huaying and did not follow suit.
Ning Xian’er’s gaze landed on the Sage Tree. She asked Chen An curiously, “Deacon Chen, why is there a tree demon in your cave abode?”
Chen An hurriedly explained, “Saint, this tree is called the Sage Tree. Although it’s a tree demon, it’s friendly and knowledgeable. It’s good at teaching. I specially bought it from a Fellow Cultivator who was traveling before I joined the sect. He is the teacher to my two daughters.”
“There’s such a tree demon in this world?” Ning Xian’er felt that her horizons had been broadened. She clicked her tongue in wonder and said, “The world is really big. There are all kinds of strange things.”
After saying that, she curiously chatted with the Sage Tree for a while, talking about poetry and dictionary.
Then, she was shocked by the literacy level of the Sage Tree.
However, the shock only lasted for a short moment before it returned to calm in the blink of an eye.
Then, her gaze landed on Chen Yuejian and Chen Yi Ke. She asked Chen An, “Deacon Chen, your two daughters are really good-looking. What are their names?”
“Holy Maiden, my eldest daughter’s name is Chen Yuejian, and my youngest daughter’s name is Chen Yi Ke.”
ii
It’s a beautiful name.”
As Ning Xian’er spoke, her gaze fell on the pregnant Jiu Ji. She smiled and said, “Deacon Chen is really lucky. You’re going to have your third child soon.”
Chen An did not know how to respond to this. After thinking for a while, he said, “I’m a little lucky, but it’s been hard on my wives.”
“Deacon Chen, you’re wrong. It’s your wives’ blessing to marry you and be pregnant with your child.”
Ning Xian’er smiled and said.
After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the cave. She sighed in her heart. So he was already a husband with five wives. What a pity.
Seeing that she was about to leave after searching, Chen An hurriedly followed her out.
Just as he was about to walk out of the cave abode,
With a thought, Chen An took out a glass bottle containing three Divine Beautifying Pills from his storage ring and handed it to Ning Xian’er respectfully. He smiled and said,
“Holy Maiden, this is a beauty pill I learned to refine some time ago. My wives and daughters at home tested it and the effect is very good. If Holy Maiden needs it, you can let me send it over in the future.”
It was rare for him to see the Holy Maiden. He would not let go of this opportunity to please her, nor would he hide his alchemy strength.
He wanted to become someone under the Holy Maiden first, then turning her into someone under him.
“What’s the name of this pill?”
Ning Xian’er took the bottle and asked.
Chen An replied, “This pill is called the Divine Beautifying Pill. Its effect is more than ten times that of the Beautifying Pill. Its effect is visible on the entire body.”
“Really?”
Ning Xian’er’s eyes lit up.
Chen An nodded. “Really.”
Ning Xian’er felt her heart racing.
To her, the Beautifying Pill was already a top-notch Beautifying Pill.
But now, she heard from Chen An that the medicinal pill in this glass bottle was more than ten times more effective than the Beautifying Pill.
This was a little beyond her understanding.
“Deacon Chen, this voice transmission talisman can reach me directly at any time. I’ll contact you after I return to the Heaven Earth Palace to verify the effect of the Divine Beautifying Pill.”
Ning Xian’er took out a voice transmission talisman from her storage ring and handed it to Chen An. Then, she instructed, “Before I contact you, don’t tell anyone that you can refine the Divine Beautifying Pill.”
Chen An: “I understand, Holy Maiden.”
After the two of them exchanged a few more words, the Holy Maiden quickly left impatiently, wanting to rush back to test the effect of the Divine Beautifying Pill.
In the Heaven Earth Palace, Ning Xian’er happily pushed open the door and entered, humming a pleasant tune she had created along the way.
Seeing that she was so happy, Sect Master Xiao Qingyue could not help but ask expectantly, “Xian’er is so happy. Did you successfully resolve the matter regarding the remnants of the Yin Sect and obtain the Yin Sect’s supreme treasure?”
“No, Master.” The smile on Ning Xian’er’s face disappeared. She sighed and said, “Master, you might not believe it, but I led the Dark Forces Department to search the entire cave abode area, but we found nothing.”
Xiao Qingyue was not surprised by this outcome.
The people from Yin Sect were best at hiding.
If it was really that easy to catch.
If that was the case, they would have been killed long ago. How could there still be survivors?
However, what Xiao Qingyue did not understand was why her disciple, Ning Xian’er, was so happy.
She could not understand and could only ask, “Xian’er, since you can’t find any clues, why are you still so happy?”
“Master, I used the excuse of searching to enter Deacon Chen’s cave abode and interact with him.”
Ning Xian’er replied.
Xiao Qingyue was even more surprised and asked, “Is there anything to be happy about?”
“Yes,” Ning Xian’er said. “I’ve taken a fancy to Deacon Chen. Of course I’ll be happy to be able to enter his cave abode.”
Actually, she would not be so happy just to enter Chen An’s cave abode.
What really made her happy was that Chen An had given her a bottle of Divine Beautifying Pills, a bottle of heaven-defying Beautifying Pills that far exceeded the effects of Beautifying Pills.
However, she did not dare to say this, afraid that her master, who was also a woman, would snatch it away.
Xiao Qingyue frowned and said, “Xian’er, have you forgotten what I told you last time?”
“I remember.”
“Then why are you still…”
“Master, Deacon Chen is too handsome. I like him. I can’t lie to myself.”
Ning Xian’er said.
She said these words to build a relationship with Chen An in the future.
She craved Chen An’s Divine Beautifying Pill, but she needed a reason to get close to him.
On the other hand, coveting his looks was a very good reason. It saved her from having to explain in the future.
Xiao Qingyue did not know what her disciple was thinking. She asked in confusion, “Just because he’s handsome?”
“Master, isn’t this enough?”
Ning Xian’er let out a soul-like interrogation.
Xiao Qingyue frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
She suddenly realized that what her disciple said made sense!
Seeing that her master had fallen into deep thought, Ning Xian’er returned to her room.
She sat on the bed and took out the bottle of Divine Beautifying Pills that Chen An had given her. When she thought of Chen An’s handsome face, she could not help but blush..
