Deacon Cai…
Upon hearing these three words, Chen An’s emotions fluctuate for a moment. His gaze turned cold as he looked at the man walking over from outside the door.
He didn’t say anything and just silently sized up the man’s appearance. At the same time, he used his Golden Fire Eyes to spy on the man’s name and cultivation.
[Cai Xu: Golden Core Realm Level 9]
“Qingyi, is this the husband of the Alchemy Hall’s deacon that you keep talking about? He looks a little different from me.”
Cai Xu walked in and saw Chen An holding Shen Qingyi’s hand. He could not help but mock him in a feminine voice. His voice sounded very effeminate.
Chen An did not want to get into a conflict with him in case he was suspected when he cursed him later. Hence, he took Shen Qingyi’s hand and walked around him.
Cai Xu did not stop the couple. He only said to Chen An with a faint smile,
“Fellow Cultivator Chen, your wife has a heroic aura that suits my taste. As long as you’re willing to give her to me, I can help you become an elder of the Alchemy Hall in thirty years.”
“Of course, it’s fine if you don’t want to. At most, 1’11 spend some effort to snatch her over in the future. At that time, I’ll use a special method to thank you and make you regret not taking the initiative to give your wife to me in the first place.”
Chen An did not respond. He silently rode his sword and left with Shen Qingyi.
From Cai Xu’s condescending attitude just now, the power of the Nine Elders in the Heaven Earth Sect was far greater than he had imagined.
He could even snatch someone else’s wife so openly.
He was not afraid of disappointing the disciples of the sect.
He was not afraid of being held accountable by the Sect Master later.
The power of the Nine Elders was obvious. They were even more exaggerated than the emperors of the secular world.
After returning to the cave abode a moment later,
Shen Qingyi pulled Chen An into the room and asked with a worried expression, “Husband, if it really doesn’t work, should our family move out of the Heaven Earth Sect?”
She was frightened by what Cai Xu had just said in the Law Enforcement Hall.
For the sake of her family, she would rather leave the Heaven Earth Sect.
Chen An said to her calmly, “It’s not a big problem. Don’t worry, I’ll handle this matter properly. It’s just that you might not be able to go to the Law Enforcement Hall to pursue your ideals for a long time in the future.”
“Husband, the Law Enforcement Hall of the Heaven Earth Sect is rotten to the core. It’s beneath me to go there.”
“That’s true, but it’s alright. When I uproot the Law Enforcement Hall in the future, I’ll make you an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall.”
“Yes, I believe in Husband.”
Shen Qingyi did not know if she really believed it or not, but at this moment, she looked at Chen An with trust in her eyes, mixed with a hint of deep affection.
A man and a woman were alone in the same room. Chen An felt the urge.
He didn’t think too much about it. He carried Shen Qingyi and walked to the bed to increase their Relationship.

Days passed.
Chen An had been holding back from attacking Cai Xu. He only secretly inquired about him every day.
He knew that a profligate son like Cai Xu would often offend others.
Now, he was waiting for an opportunity for Cai Xu to have a violent conflict with others. Then, he would use the Book of Curses to curse Cai Xu. While taking revenge on Cai Xu, he could also cause trouble and minimize his suspicion.
Just like that, more than a month passed.
One night, Chen An finally got such an opportunity.
Cai Xu and the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall had a conflict.
The elder of the Law Enforcement Hall was on the Sect Master’s side. He had already endured Cai Xu for a long time. This night, because Cai Xu had publicly refuted his face, he could not help but beat Cai Xu up.
After that, it was only when Sect Master Xiao Qingyue and Cai Xu’s biological mother arrived that this matter was temporarily resolved.
The matter had been temporarily resolved, but the conflict between Cai Xu and the Law Enforcement Hall’s elders had deepened.
Cai Xu wanted to use his father’s power to bring down the current elder of the Law Enforcement Hall and become an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall himself.
On the other hand, the current elder of the Law Enforcement Hall relied on the support of the Sect Master and the fact that the other eight elders would not watch one of the Nine Elders’ lineage grow in power. He was not afraid of Cai Xu.
The night was dark and windy.
Everything was silent.
Chen An brewed his Relationship for a while and felt that it was about time. He took out the Book of Curses and began to curse from afar.
“Cai Xu…”
“Cai Xu…”
“Cai Xu…”
As Chen An thought about Cai Xu’s appearance in the depths of his mind, he muttered his name.
It cursed him for more than two hours.
Then, a notification popped up out of thin air.
[You have successfully cursed Cai Xu. When he was having fun with a neutral-looking female Cultivator in the Joyous Union Pavilion, a large amount of essence suddenly leaked out. His body was instantly emptied and he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood. He fell unconscious on the female Cultivator in the Joyous Union Pavilion and his soul was severely injured. His cultivation fell to the first level of the Golden Core realm.]
“So fierce?”
Chen An looked at the notification that popped up in front of him, his face full of surprise.
In the next few days, he continued to pay attention to Cai Xu’s news.
The news he heard almost every day was the same. Cai Xu was lying unconscious in bed, suspected to have become a vegetable.
In the past few days, the Ninth Elder’s family had been in a mess.
Chen An felt very good.
However, he could only feel secretly pleased and not make it public.
Three days later, in Shen Qingyi’s room.
After plowing, Chen An lay on the bed and hugged Shen Qingyi to rest, enjoying the momentary peace after the storm.
Shen Qingyi snuggled in his arms. After thinking for a moment, she asked, “Husband, was it your doing that Cai Xu suddenly fell unconscious until now?”
“How so?”
“I didn’t say much. Perhaps it’s a woman’s sixth sense. I keep feeling that this matter has something to do with you.”
“You’re thinking too much. In the past month or so, other than satisfying your sisters, I’ve basically spent the rest of my time refining pills. How could I have the time to deal with Cai Xu?”
Chen An did not admit that he did it.
He felt that the fewer people who knew about this, the better.
He wasn’t worried that Shen Qingyi would let it slip, but he was worried that one day, the Nine Elders would find out about him and Shen Qingyi and use some secret technique to interrogate or search them.
Chen An had strong mental strength and was immune to most techniques. He did not have to worry about this.
However, Shen Qingyi could not.
At the same time, in front of the Ninth Elder’s cave abode.
A beautiful woman knelt in front of an ancient stone door engraved with runes and begged, “Husband, Xu’er is about to die. Please come out of seclusion early to save Xu’er!”
This was already the twenty-seventh day she had been kneeling.
However, there was no response from the stone door.
Just as the woman stood up in despair and was about to leave…
A sigh came from behind the stone door. Then, the stone door opened.
In the next moment, a man who looked to be in his forties or fifties but had actually lived for more than a thousand years slowly walked out of the stone door.
He was the Ninth Elder of the Heaven Earth Sect, Cai Ziyin.
Seeing her omnipotent husband come out, the woman cried tears of joy on the spot. Then, she hurriedly said, “Husband, quickly save Xu’er. He’s about to die!” “What are you crying for!” Cai Ziyin glared at the woman fiercely and said angrily, “That incompetent bastard only knows how to cause trouble for me all day. If he really doesn’t work, just die early and reincarnate!”
Cursing was one thing.
However, he was still his son.
Soon, Cai Ziyin went to Cai Xu’s room to check on his legitimate son’s health.
It would have been fine if he hadn’t investigated. Once he did, his brows raised and he said angrily,
“How dare you!”
“Which blind dares to secretly curse the disciples of my Cai family!”
“I’ll find you, skin you, and break your bones!”
Although Cai Ziyin looked down on Cai Xu, the son of the first wife who had achieved nothing, he was ultimately a person who put family first and did not care about reason. He was extremely protective of his children.
Now that he realized that someone actually dared to hide behind his back and play curses to harm his legitimate son, he, who was used to being domineering, could not take it anymore. He immediately used a secret technique to track down the person behind the curse..
