Chen An looked at the notification in front of him and then looked down at the blue pill that had appeared out of thin air in his hand. He was instantly extremely excited.

The concubine was pregnant!

The reward was the Marrow Cleansing Pill!

Double happiness!

Chen An tried his best to calm down and was not in a hurry to tell Wen Zhiyun this good news.

He hurriedly put on his clothes and got out of bed. He could not wait to go to the alchemy room to eat the Marrow Cleansing Pill to improve his ordinary physique.

“Not coming?”

Seeing that Chen An only did it once before putting on his clothes and leaving, Wen Zhiyun couldn’t help but be a little surprised. She thought to herself, ‘Is this still my husband who is so energetic every day that he has nowhere to release himself?’

Chen An said as he put on his shoes, “I just remembered that 1 have something on. I’ll come back tonight or tomorrow.”

With that, he quickly left the room.

He came to the alchemy room.

Chen An found a random place to sit down.

Then, without thinking, he swallowed the blue pili in his hand.

The next second.

A scorching warmth burst forth from his stomach and quickly flowed through his blood vessels.

Wherever he went, his blood vessels expanded and his pores expanded.

This continued for the time needed for half an incense stick to burn.

A large amount of smelly black mud suddenly expelled from the pores on Chen An’s body.

At the same time, there was a movement in his stomach.

He really wanted to release something.

This feeling was as if he had eaten a set meal from a certain scholar and wanted to transform into a jet warrior.

“I can’t take it anymore!”

Chen An could not be bothered to clean up the mud on his body. He opened the window of the alchemy room and jumped out. He took a shortcut and rushed to the toilet in the backyard.

After a round in the outhouse.

He immediately turned to the bathroom.

First, he washed the mud off his body with clear water.

Then, he squandered all the dried petals that Wen Zhiyun usually stored and bathed himself in a flower bath.

This was to remove the strange smell left on his body.

He soaked for a full hour.

Only then did Chen An completely remove the strange smell on his body.

He took the dry cloth.

He dried himself.

Chen An walked into Gu Xinyue’s room and borrowed the floor-to-ceiling bronze mirror in her room.

He came to the bronze mirror and took a look.

Chen An realized that his complexion had become much better.

It looked even more exquisite than his three wives and concubines.

Fortunately, he had a good figure and his entire body was covered in strong muscles as in sculpted from marble. That was why he did not look like a pale-faced scholar.

He closed his eyes and felt it.

Chen An realized that his ability to sense spiritual energy had become much stronger.

It could better extrapolate the spiritual energy from the air.

This meant that his cultivation efficiency would greatly increase.

“The future is promising.”

Chen An looked at himself in the mirror and could not hide the smile on his face.

He set a small goal of reaching Foundation Establishment in two and a half years.

“Husband?”

A puzzled voice suddenly came from behind.

It was Gu Xinyue’s voice.

She returned to her room after busying herself in the backyard.

Chen An turned around and smiled.

“I just took a shower. I came to look at myself in the mirror.”

But… Husband, why aren’t you wearing anything?”

“Ahem, it’s a long story.”

“Yue’er is very patient. 1 can listen to everything Husband has to say.”

“You’re so curious, right? Come, come, come, come to bed. I’ll explain it to you.”

“Husband…”

After about an incense stick of time.

[Divine Consciousness Strength +3]

Gu Xinyue leaned into Chen An’s arms with a rosy face. She reached out to touch his delicate and smooth face and said in disbelief,

“Husband, why has your skin become so exquisite?”

“I don’t know either.”

“Is that so?’

As Gu Xinyue touched it, she said, “Husband, your skin feels even softer than Sister Ying’er’s.”

Chen An smiled and did not say anything.

After resting for a while.

He felt that it was about time to start work.

He said to Gu Xinyue,

“Yue’er, can i trouble you to get a set of clothes from my room? i dirtied and lost that set of clothes just now. I forgot to take a change of clothes when I was bathing.”

“Husband, wait a moment. I’ll go get it now.”

As Gu Xinyue spoke, she put on her clothes and got out of bed, quickly leaving the room.

Not long after, she returned with a set of clothes.

Chen An put on his clothes.

But he was in no hurry to leave the room.

Instead, he sat cross-legged on the bed and cultivated.

He cultivated using the Qi Refining Art.

Breathing in.

Breathing out.

He carefully sensed the process of the spiritual qi contained in the air being sucked and refined in his stomach.

After about half an incense stick of time.

Chen An slowly opened his eyes. The joy on his face could no longer be concealed.

His cultivation speed had really increased.

At least three times as much as before.

The effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill were astonishing.

Seeing that Chen An had opened his eyes and finished cultivating, Gu Xinyue blushed and asked,

“Husband, do you want to… do it again?”

“Not tonight, tomorrow. i have something to do now.”

After saying that, Chen An kissed the ice-queen of a concubine.

Then, he got out of bed and left the room.

When he came outside, he pushed open Wen Zhiyun’s door and walked in with a smile.

“Yun’er, i have good news for you.”

“Don’t keep me in suspense. I’m not guessing.”

Wen Zhiyun rolled her eyes at Chen An and said angrily.

Chen An didn’t say anything else. He went to the bed and sat beside her. He pulled her into his arms and said,

“Yun’er, you’re pregnant.”

“What do you mean?”

“You’re pregnant.”

“Yes?

Wen Zhiyun was stunned when she heard this. Her face was filled with disbelief.

She knew very well that although her husband was shameless and often not serious, but he would never joke around.

Therefore, after reacting, she could not help but ask in confusion,

“This… How did you know 1 was pregnant?”

“Have you heard of the pregnancy observation technique?”

“Never heard of it.”

Wen Zhiyun shook her head.

Chen An smiled, ‘Of course, I made this up. It would be strange if you had heard of it.’

Wen Zhiyun did not know that she had been deceived.

She was reaching out to touch her flat stomach and still felt that it was a little unreal.

She was puzzled and asked,

“Husband, am I really pregnant?”

“Absolutely.”

Chen An said seriously.

Seeing her husband’s serious expression, Wen Zhiyun finally believed that she was really pregnant.

It was also at this moment that his originally puzzled mood instantly became a little excited.

[Your wife, Wen Zhiyun, found out that she was pregnant with your child.

Couple Relationship+1+3+1+4….]

[Relationship: 2 stars (101/500)]

Their Relationship level had increased.

It didn’t take much effort.

Chen An was slightly excited. He slowly placed Wen Zhiyun on the bed and looked down at her beautiful eyes.

“Yun’er, we have to celebrate this joyous occasion.”

“Wait, no. It’s not good for the fetus.”

“It’s still early. It’s not a fetus yet.”

“Then… alright.”

Wen Zhiyun hesitated for a moment before agreeing to celebrate.

After the time for an incense stick to burn.

[You and your wife, Wen Zhiyun, celebrated that she was pregnant with a child. Fire-type Spiritual Root aptitude +2.]

[Fire Spirit: Mid-grade (101/500)]

The moment these two notifications appeared,

Chen An felt a warmth in his abdomen. He vaguely sensed that something inside had become thicker and more crystal clear.

After that, his body’s sensitivity to spiritual energy increased to another level.

Without a doubt, this was a change brought about by the upgrade of the Fire-type Spiritual Root.

Chen An did not bother to put on his clothes. He sat cross-legged on the bed naked and began to cultivate with his eyes closed.

As expected.

His cultivation speed had clearly increased.

The most obvious thing was that he was very sensitive to the fire-type spiritual qi in the air.

He could better absorb it into his body and refine it into spiritual qi.

Overall, his cultivation speed was more than ten times faster than before he took the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Within a month!

■No!’

Within half a month!

“I want to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining in half a month with my own efforts!”

Chen An was extremely confident.
