Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 257: Xiao Qingyue's Contrast (12)

Upon hearing the sudden sound of the door opening, Xiao Qingyue immediately looked over in panic.

Chen An, on the other hand, remained calm.

He had sensed someone approaching long ago, but he didn't care about it.

As a steward, he had no identity to uphold, so he wasn't afraid of his relationship with Xiao Qingyue being exposed.

"Master, I didn't see anything."

The graceful figure outside the door, a beautiful woman in her thirties, stuttered in fear after witnessing the scene in the conference room.

She had discovered a terrible secret and was afraid that Xiao Qingyue would kill her to silence her.

But her worries were unnecessary.

Because Xiao Qingyue really did have the intention to kill her.

After a moment of reaction, Xiao Qingyue used her power to pull the beautiful woman in from a distance, instantly freezing her into an ice sculpture. With a flick of her finger, she could shatter the ice sculpture into pieces.

However, just as Xiao Qingyue's fingertip was about to touch the ice sculpture, Chen An calmly spoke up to stop her.

"Stop."

Hearing his voice, Xiao Qingyue halted her actions.

The woman who had been frozen saw this and felt a wave of relief.

This brief encounter had almost driven her to the brink of collapse.

"Who is this woman?"

Chen An looked at the beautiful woman in the ice sculpture and asked Xiao Qingyue beside him.

Xiao Qingyue replied, "She is the new elder in charge of managing the secret department, and also one of my trusted subordinates."

During the war between the two sects, there were many undercover agents in the secret department.

So after the war ended, Xiao Qingyue thoroughly cleaned out the secret department from top to bottom and planted many of her own trusted subordinates.

"She is your trusted subordinate, and I assume she has served you faithfully for many years. It's a bit excessive to kill her just to keep the relationship a secret," Chen An said calmly.

Xiao Qingyue frowned and said, "But she discovered our relationship. Once this gets out, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"What consequences could there be?"

Chen An asked indifferently.

Xiao Qingyue pursed her lips and said, "My authority as the sect master will be undermined, and there's also the matter with Xian'er..."

"Let her go."

Chen An interrupted Xiao Qingyue before she could finish speaking.

Xiao Qingyue wanted to say something more, but she knew that Chen An always had the final say in front of her, so she reluctantly released the ice freeze on the beautiful woman.

Once unfrozen, the woman immediately trembled and knelt down on the ground.

Xiao Qingyue's ice was too powerful, freezing her legs and making it impossible for her to stand straight. She could only kneel down to stabilize herself.

"Elder Bai, it's best if you didn't see anything just now. Otherwise, you know the consequences," Xiao Qingyue threatened the kneeling woman expressionlessly.

The woman, filled with fear, quickly assured, "I didn't see anything, Master. I didn't see anything at all!"

She was afraid that if she spoke a moment too late, Xiao Qingyue would kill her on the spot, leaving her dead without a burial.

Xiao Qingyue ignored her and turned to Chen An, asking, "Husband, how should we deal with her?"

Husband?!

The sect master actually called Chen An her husband?!

The woman was shocked beyond words, thinking she must have misheard.

But the scene unfolding before her eyes made it clear that everything was true.

"Let her go."

Chen An said to Xiao Qingyue.

Xiao Qingyue hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she coldly said to the woman in front of her, "If you dare to spread what you just witnessed, I promise I will make you wish you were dead. Now, get out of here immediately."

In front of Chen An, she was a lowly concubine, but in front of the others in the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, she was still the domineering and authoritative sect master.

"Thank you for sparing my life, Master!"

After saying these words, the woman didn't dare to linger for even a moment and quickly left the conference room, afraid that Xiao Qingyue, the sect master, would change her mind.

Once she was far away from the room, the woman was soaked in sweat from the fear that had consumed her.

How could a woman as high and mighty as the sect master be involved with a steward beneath her?

This was simply outrageous!

Wait a moment!

Could the sudden surge in the strength of the sect master be related to Elder Chen?

The beautiful woman suddenly realized something and felt that she had discovered a remarkable secret.

...

In the meeting room.

Xiao Qingyue couldn't help but ask, "Husband, you just let her go like that?"

"What else can I do?"

"I think, for the sake of safety, even if we don't silence her, we should at least take care of her on the spot and make her your woman, to ensure that she keeps her mouth shut."

"As far as I know, Elder Bai is still a virgin."

"I'm not that desperate. My next concubine will be your pure and noble disciple."

Chen An said calmly.

Upon hearing the words "pure and noble disciple," Xiao Qingyue felt extremely ashamed.

She used to always advise her disciples to stay pure, but now as their master, she had fallen faster than anyone else.

It was so ironic.

In contrast to her current shame, Chen An was silently using his divine sense to sense Elder Bai outside the room, watching her get farther away.

In fact, with his mastery of the art of memory erasure, he could erase Elder Bai's memories.

But he didn't think it was necessary.

After all, he didn't care if people knew about him and Xiao Qingyue.

On the contrary, he wanted some people to know.

For example, the people around Xiao Qingyue.

That way, he could enjoy the sight of a humiliated sect master, who would be cold and domineering in front of her subordinates every day, but submissive and obedient in front of him.

And he knew, she knew, and her confidants knew, but she had to pretend not to know, and her confidants had to pretend not to know.

Just thinking about it was quite interesting.

...

Several hours later.

The ceremony ended.

Chen An returned to the Cave Mansion with his wives and daughters.

Taking advantage of everyone being together, he shared some good news with his wives and told them that he planned to bring Xiao Qingyue over tomorrow to go through a simple marriage process and officially take her as a concubine.

His wives were shocked when they heard the news.

They knew that their husband had already won over the sect master and would go to the Heavenly Palace every few days to be intimate with her.

But what they didn't expect was that their husband would be able to marry the sect master so quickly.

It was beyond their expectations.

"Husband, since you can take the sect master as a concubine, when will you take the saintess as a concubine?"

Song Huaying, the matchmaker, showed her true colors and was very enthusiastic about finding concubines for her husband.

Chen An was also frank and said directly, "If everything goes smoothly, I will be able to bring the saintess home within half a year."

"Heh, you're really confident." Wen Zhiyun, dissatisfied with Chen An taking more and more concubines, said sarcastically, "All you think about is taking concubines every day. If you have so much energy to spare, why not give more to your current wives?"

Chen An smiled and said, "Don't be so sarcastic. With your cultivation only at the peak of Foundation Building Ninth Level, you can't handle my affections too many times. It's better to have a few more sisters to share the burden. It's also a good thing for you."

Wen Zhiyun was cold and trembling with anger.

She wanted to refute Chen An's words, but couldn't.

Indeed, as Chen An said, her cultivation was only at the peak of Foundation Building Ninth Level, and she couldn't handle Chen An's affections too many times.

Not to mention her, even Jiu Ji, who was about to break through to Nascent Soul, was in the same situation.

The Soul Formation realm experts were just too powerful.

"Wen sister, what my husband said is right. It's a good thing for us to have a few more sisters to share the burden." Jiu Ji, holding Chen Jiuli and breastfeeding her, spoke softly in support of her husband.

Gu Xinyue and Shen Qingyi also followed suit, persuading Wen Zhiyun to not be so possessive.

They said that with just the few of them, they couldn't satisfy their husband.

They didn't stop their husband from bringing more sisters back.

As Wen Zhiyun listened, she became less angry and felt that what her sisters said made sense, but she still gave Chen An a disdainful look out of habit.

Chen An didn't indulge her and took this arrogant concubine into the room on the spot.
