“Fellow Cultivator Mo, it’s so late in the night. Why are you looking for me at this hour?”

Chen An and Mo Lifang looked at each other through the door.

Mo Lifang raised the pot in her hand and said with a smile, “Alchemist Chen, I just made some dessert at home. I thought that you had helped me so much that day, so I made more to share with you.”

“Fellow Cultivator Mo, is there someone beside you?”

“By the way, let me introduce you to Alchemist Chen. This is Deacon Tang of the Bamboo Leaf Gang’s Law Enforcement Hall. I believe you know him, Alchemist Chen. He’s my husband now.”

Mo Lifang, who was outside the door, introduced with a smile.

Seeing Chen An’s surprised expression, Deacon Tang smiled honestly and explained,

“It’s like this, Alchemist Chen. On the way to Green Willow Alley today, 1 saw Fang’er sitting on the ground in a daze. Out of concern, 1 went forward and asked. I found out that Fang’er’s previous husband had died on the battlefield. Now, he’s alone and helpless. 1 couldn’t bear to see a woman pitiful, so I married Fang’er and took care of her.”

Good lord, you make it sound good. If not for your bad reputation from the streets, just by looking at your honest appearance, 1 might really be deceived by you…

Chen An complained in his heart, but he pretended to nod in admiration and said, “I see. Deacon Tang is really kind. You’re really a role model for us.”

“No, no.”

Deacon Tang waved his hand and said humbly.

Chen An smiled. Then, he opened the courtyard door with a creak and let Mo Lifang and Deacon Tang in.

He didn’t want to open the door, but he had no choice.

The other party was a deacon of the Bamboo Leaf Gang’s Law Enforcement Hall. If he offended the deacon by rejecting him, he would probably be targeted in the future.

Moreover, it was just a small wooden door. If the other party insisted on entering, he would not be able to stop them at all.

“Alchemist Chen, I made mung bean dessert. I wonder if it suits your taste.”

After Mo Lifang entered, she handed over the pot in her hand with a warm smile.

The moment he took the casserole, Chen An secretly tested it with the needle he carried with him. He realized that the sugar water was not poisonous and smiled.

“The taste will definitely be good. Fellow Cultivator Mo, you’re very considerate.”

“Alchemist Chen, aren’t you going to invite us in?”

Seeing that Chen An was standing rooted to the ground and did not seem to have any intention of inviting them in, Mo Lifang could not help but ask with a smile.

Deacon Tang also smiled awkwardly.

“Alchemist Chen, I forgot to drink water on the way here. I’m very thirsty now. Can I trouble you to get a bowl and let me pour a bowl of the dessert to quench my thirst?”

It was a lie. He just wanted to enter the house and see the beauty of Chen An’s wife and concubine.

Chen An understood Deacon Tang’s character and knew what he was thinking. However, he did not reject him. Instead, he invited him in naturally.

“I’m sorry for not being a good host. Come, Fellow Cultivator Mo, Deacon Tang, this way please.”

“No, no. We’re the ones who disturbed Alchemist Chen.”

Deacon Tang said with a smile.

Soon, the three of them came to the tea table in the hall and sat down to eat the dessert.

They drank and chatted.

Deacon Tang said that Chen An had helped his Fang’er so much that day. As her husband, he had to thank him properly.

Thus, he told Chen An that as a deacon of the Law Enforcement Hall, he was very familiar with a deacon in charge of the logistics department in the gang. He could tamper with the supply of medicinal pills so that Chen An could save at least half of the medicinal pills every month.

In order not to look too deliberately kind, he even said that they would split the profits 50-50.

With that said, he asked with a smile, “Alchemist Chen, what do you think?”

“Deacon Tang, I’m a timid person. 1 really don’t dare to do such risky things. I’m afraid I’ll waste your good intentions.”

Chen An smiled and declined politely.

Seeing Widow Mo and Deacon Tang in front of him – one was vicious to harm her own son, while the other coveted other people’s wives and concubines all day long. Working with these two was no different from a sheep entering the tiger’s mouth.

During this special period, if an Alchemist dared to tamper with the supply of medicinal pills, once the people from the Bamboo Leaf Gang’s Law Enforcement Hall investigated it, they would be captured and sent to the battlefields to be a slave and never be able to return home for the rest of their lives.

Chen An guessed that Deacon Tang most likely wanted to talk about cooperation on the surface and quickly cut ties behind his back. He would then use his identity as a deacon of the Law Enforcement Hall to capture and enslave him.

This way, Deacon Tang would have contributions in the gang and could take the wives he so coveted. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.

“By the way, Alchemist Chen, why didn’t you ask your three wives and concubines to come out for dessert?” Mo Lifang asked in confusion.

Her purpose in coming here was to let Deacon Tang see the beauty of Chen An’s three wives and concubines so that she could completely arouse his interest.

Chen An: “They’re all asleep.”

Mo Lifang asked, “They sleep so early?”

Chen An: “My wives and concubines are too tired today. They went to bed after dinner.”

Mo Lifang: “I see…”

Seeing that it was about time, Chen An ordered the two of them to leave. He smiled apologetically and said,

“I’m sorry, the Bamboo Leaf Gang has asked me to hand over too many medicinal pills now. I still have to work overtime to refine pills later. If the two of you don’t have anything else, why don’t we catch up another day?”

“Since that’s the case, we won’t disturb Alchemist Chen anymore. Let’s catch up another day.”

After saying that, Mo Lifang and Deacon Tang did not sit in the hall anymore. They got up and left Chen An’s house.

After the two of them walked out of the courtyard and gradually disappeared, Chen An told his wife and daughter, who were hiding in the room, that they could come out.

As soon as his wives and concubines came out, Song Huaying asked worriedly, “Husband, why did Deacon Tang suddenly come to our house just now?”

Chen An did not hide anything and directly voiced his guess. “It’s most likely that Deacon Tang has his eyes on the three of you.”

When his wives and concubines heard this, their expressions changed slightly.

They all knew that Deacon Tang coveted other people’s wives.

“Mother, 1 want dessert.”

Chen Yuejian, who was in Song Huaying’s arms, looked at the pot of mung bean sugar water on the dining table and said in a childish voice.

When Chen An heard that, he immediately asked Gu Xinyue to pour away the mung bean sugar water and throw away the pot altogether. He chose to make the dessert himself for his daughter in the kitchen.

Soon, the dessert was ready.

The family of five sat together and ate. Their wives, concubines, and daughters had expressions of enjoyment.

Chen An’s culinary skills were too good. They could not stop themselves.

After drinking it for a moment, Song Huaying thought of Deacon Tang, who had just arrived at the house, and couldn’t help but look worried again.

“Husband, if us three are really targeted by Deacon Tang, will we be fine?”

The other party was a deacon of the Bamboo Leaf Gang’s Law Enforcement Hall. He was an expert with a cultivation of the ninth level of Qi Refining. She was afraid that her husband would not be able to withstand him.

When Chen An heard this, he reached out and pulled her into his arms. He stroked her head and comforted her.

“Ying’er, don’t worry too much. Your Sister Wen and I are both at the eighth level of Qi Refining. There’s no need to be afraid of Deacon Tang.”

“Yes, Ying’er believes in you.”

Song Huaying snuggled in Chen An’s arms and listened to the constant heartbeat. She felt very at ease.

Seeing this, Gu Xinyue also said worriedly, “Husband, Yue’er is also very worried…”

Chen An understood what this icy concubine meant. He reached out and pulled her into his arms to comfort her. “It’s fine. You won’t have to worry after hugging me for a while.”

On the other hand, Wen Zhiyun also wanted to be hugged when she saw this, but her proud personality did not allow her to take the initiative to speak. She looked at Chen An silently and hinted crazily.

Chen An sensed her hint and did not know whether to laugh or cry. He could only reach out and puli her into his arms.

“Father, 1 want a hug too!”

The young Chen Yuejian couldn’t help but run over to ask for a hug when she saw her three mothers snuggle in her father’s arms.

Chen An made some space for his daughter and pulled her into his arms.

The scene was very heartwarming.

[Feelings from his wives, concubines, and daughters +2+3+1+5+4+3+3+1+5…]

On the other hand, on a towering tree hundreds of meters away from the Chen An family.

Deacon Tang stood on a thick and sturdy branch with Mo Lifang. He held the Thousand Mile Mirror and peeped at everything in Chen An’s room.

“Beautiful, so beautiful. Alchemist Chen’s three wives and concubines are really too beautiful!”

“Fang’er, quickly think of another way. 1 can’t help but dote on those three beauties!”

“By tomorrow night at the latest, I want them all on my bed!”

Deacon Tang watched the warm scene of Chen An hugging his three wives and concubines in the hall as he urged Mo Lifang impatiently.

Seeing Deacon Tang’s anxious expression, Mo Lifang felt even more disgusted.

But now that she was living under someone else’s roof, she could only choose to endure it silently.

After thinking for a moment, Mo Lifang thought of an idea and immediately whispered into Deacon Tang’s ear.

Deacon Tang’s eyes lit up when he heard this. He pulled Mo Lifang into his arms and kissed her pretty face. “Fang-er, you’re too wise. It’s my honor to be able to marry a good wife like you..”
