81. Divine Sense Breakthrough (2/3)

Chen An looked at the notification messages before him, feeling as if he were dreaming.

Ever since he married Song Huaying, he had been trying every possible way to extend her lifespan, wanting her to be as long-lived as himself.

However, Song Huaying was merely a mortal; how difficult it was to make her long-lived.

If everyone could be long-lived, then there would be no distinction between immortals and mortals.

But now!

The notification messages before him were saying that as long as the couple's affection level reached 5 stars, his wives and concubines could benefit from their marital life just like him.

Isn't this mutual progress, one person attaining the Dao and their chickens and dogs ascending to heaven?

Chen An was very excited and couldn't wait to share this good news with his little wife.

"Ying, it's not just about eternal youth; your husband now has the ability to make you as long-lived as an immortal."

"Ah?"

Song Huaying thought she had misheard and looked somewhat stunned.

Chen An continued, "Your husband can't explain it clearly for the moment, but one thing is certain: within ten years, your husband will be able to set you on the path of immortality."

"Husband, really?"

"Absolutely true."

"Mm, Ying believes in Husband."

Song Huaying pressed her little face tightly against Chen An's chest, listening to the heartbeat constantly coming from within, and felt very much at ease.

In truth, she did not believe Chen An could really let her set foot on the path of immortality, treating it merely as a comfort.

However, what did that matter?

As long as she could feel her husband's love for her, that was enough.

Life is short, so one should live in the moment and enjoy the present.

As for looks, lifespan, and such, those are worries for the future to worry about later.

Song Huaying suddenly figured many things out, and the gloom in her heart dissipated by more than half in an instant.

Soon.

The two left the bathroom and returned to their room.

They did not engage in marital relations for the rest of the night.

They simply slept in each other's arms.

With a close and an open of the eyes.

Time had arrived at the next morning.

Chen An had already woken up in the middle of the night to go to the Alchemy Room to finish refining the medicinal pills that needed to be sent to the Bamboo Leaf Gang's Logistics Department today.

Then, before dawn, he had sent the pills over.

Waking up from the bed now, he had only taken a nap for over an hour after returning from delivering the medicine.

"Becoming a Foundation Establishment expert is truly great; I feel like my energy is inexhaustible. The 996 and 007 of my past life are nothing compared to this."

Chen An sat on the bed and sighed with emotion.

Afterward, he got dressed, got out of bed, and left the room of his little wife, Song Huaying.

After coming out, he walked straight toward the room of his icy concubine, Gu Xinyue, thinking of breaking through his Divine Sense to the Second-tier right now.

But after arriving, he found that Gu Xinyue's door was open, and she had already gotten up and left.

Chen An guessed she must have gotten up to make breakfast.

Thus, he changed direction and headed to the kitchen.

Upon arriving, sure enough, Gu Xinyue was inside simmering porridge.

"Yue, up so early?"

"Husband, morning."

Gu Xinyue turned around and smiled with a face full of smiles.

Chen An did not chat with her, but walked straight up and said, "Come, let your husband properly check how Yue's 'Mandarin Ducks Flying Together' cultivation is coming along, and see if it's as Proficient as Ying's."

"Husband, Yue is very obedient and is working hard at cultivating every day..."

Gu Xinyue looked well-behaved, very concerned about her image in Chen An's heart.

About two sticks of incense later.

"Divine Sense has broken through!"

Chen An could not care about being intimate with his icy concubine; he got up and walked out of the kitchen, arriving in the spacious courtyard outside, and began to carefully sense his own five senses.

Among them, he mainly sensed his vision, hearing, and smell.

After a round of sensing.

He discovered that the range of his perception was more than twice as large as before the breakthrough.

Previously, when his Divine Sense level was still First-tier Advanced, the range of his five senses was only a few hundred meters.

But now, it had already broken through to over a thousand meters!

"It's become much stronger again!"

Feeling the power of his five senses, Chen An's face was full of gratified smiles.

Although his cultivation was only at the first level of Foundation Establishment, he felt he could already stand against experts at the second level of Foundation Establishment.

In a sneak attack, he might even be able to directly inflict heavy damage with one strike, achieving the legendary feat of killing across levels.

If the Sleep Aid Technique could break through to the next realm, perhaps even sneak attacks wouldn't be necessary.

At that point, I could just use a Mastery-level Sleep Aid Technique head-on, combined with my Master-level Golden Finger, and in minutes I could defeat a superior, crushing a Foundation Establishment second-layer great expert.

"It seems I'll have to lull my daughter to sleep often in the coming time."

Chen An muttered to himself.

After eating breakfast.

Chen An took his wife and daughter out of the courtyard and walked toward the Market.

Today is the last day to apply for the Treasure Pavilion test, but Chen An had already finished refining all 2,000 Qi Condensation Pills ahead of time, specifically leaving this day free to accompany his wife and daughter.

It is also thanks to Shen Qingyi that the security in the Core Area is better than ever, which gave Chen An the opportunity to take his wife and daughter out shopping.

Having arrived at the Market after a long time, the three wives and concubines were all very delighted.

As for his daughter Chen Yuejian, this was her first time out in her memory; walking along the way, she was curious about everything she saw.

Chen An also transformed into a doting father, buying everything his daughter took a fancy to, making his daughter smile from ear to ear the whole time.

In the blink of an eye.

The family had been shopping for an entire morning.

They did not go home for lunch.

They settled it directly at Baixiang Lou in the Market.

Exotic flowers and fruits, rare treasures and strange beasts—they ordered whatever dish was expensive.

One meal cost nearly 50 Low-grade Spirit Stones.

Since he is already a Foundation Establishment great expert, and a Second-tier Alchemist about to join the Treasure Pavilion, there is no need to be stingy with food and drink; it is very necessary to occasionally have a good meal to reward his wives and concubines.

His wife and daughter all ate very contentedly, feeling that this life was worth living, and their feelings for Chen An rose rapidly.

After the meal.

The family of five continued to shop.

Chen An was tired from walking, but the three wives and concubines could not get enough of it.

As for his daughter Chen Yuejian, she was carried in Chen An's arms for almost the entire time; she would sleep when tired and follow her mothers to shop everywhere when awake.

As they walked, the family of five entered a shop specializing in women's clothing.

The wife and daughter were responsible for buying, and Chen An was responsible for evaluating.

The three wives and concubines were all very clear about their own temperaments, and the clothes they bought were very much in line with their own styles.

Song Huaying is lively, so she bought a pinkish silk long dress.

Gu Xinyue is cold and aloof, so she bought a deep blue silk brocade garment.

Wen Zhiyun is graceful, so she bought a light purple silk Daoist robe.

As for his daughter Chen Yuejian, she bought one of each of the three different styles.

"Husband, I can't tie the skirt sash, come in and help me tie it."

Song Huaying's voice came from the fitting room.

Chen An walked and replied: "Alright, coming."

As soon as he entered the fitting room, he saw Song Huaying looking distressed as she said: "Husband, this long dress is designed in a way that the sash is too hard to tie; I can't put it on by myself at all, but I really like this long dress."

Chen An glanced at the dress and felt it looked a bit strange, so he said: "Turn around and let me see."

Song Huaying obediently turned around.

Chen An studied it for a moment, quickly discovered the problem, and said somewhat speechlessly: "Ying, you tied the skirt sash backward."

"Ah, is that so?"

Song Huaying was a little dazed.

She then pulled out the sash, reversed it, and tied it again, managing it quite easily.

"It really was tied backward!"

Song Huaying blinked her eyes, looking foolishly cute.

She turned around gently on the spot and asked with anticipation: "Husband, do I look good in this pink long dress?"

"As beautiful as a fish sinking or a goose falling, as lovely as the moon hiding or flowers blushing."

Chen An gave a high evaluation without any exaggeration; perhaps it was because beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, but he truly felt Song Huaying deserved these eight characters.

Upon hearing this, Song Huaying's beautiful eyes curved into crescent moons; she happily stepped forward and kissed Chen An, saying sweetly: "Thank you for the compliment, Husband. I'm going out to show Sister Wen, Sister Gu, and Xiao Yuejian."

"Don't rush, wait a moment." Chen An grabbed Song Huaying's slender hand.

Song Huaying was a bit puzzled: "Husband?"

Chen An helped Song Huaying turn around, let her bend over slightly with her back to him, and then he whispered gently: "Ying, this sash of yours isn't tied very well; let your husband untie it and retie it for you."

After he finished speaking, he pulled out the sash and retied it, and two notification messages popped up before his eyes.
