Becoming Immortal Through Getting Married

Gu Xinyue's words were so shocking that the couple was stunned.

She suddenly came over to say that she wanted to be a concubine in public. Was this girl so brave?

Chen Chen calmed himself down and asked, "Fellow Cultivator Gu, what are you…?"

"Alchemist Chen, I don't have money to buy Ice Crystal Pills. I really don't have money. But I don't want my father to die. Please help me. In return, I'll be your concubine, your slave…"

Gu Xinyue spoke a lot and quickly. Her voice was filled with anxiety and uneasiness. It was obvious that her emotions were unstable.

Chen An fell silent for a moment before deciding to tell the truth.

"Fellow Cultivator Gu, I'll say this cruelly but it's the truth. Your father is now in the late stages of the fire poison. Even if a Foundation Stage powerhouse comes, he will be helpless. It's better to accompany him for the last few days."

"I know, I know. I just want my father to live a little longer, even if it's just for a day."

As Gu Xinyue spoke, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Seeing that she knew about his father's situation, Chen An no longer hesitated and decided to take her in today.

Out of respect for his little wife, he handed the decision-making power to her and asked:

"Ying'er, what do you think?"

"Husband, I used to be the eldest daughter at home. I've always hoped to have an elder sister. I hope that you can agree to Fairy Gu's request."

Song Huaying went against her heart's wishes.

Although she had already seen through the problem of her husband taking concubines sooner or later and knew that the earlier her husband took concubines, the better it would be for her, she still felt a little upset when this moment really came.

After getting his wife's opinion, Chen An went back to his room and took out two bottles of Ice Crystal Pills. He handed them to Gu Xinyue, who was still sobbing softly, and said to her:

"Take these two bottles of Ice Crystal Pills back for your father to use first. If it's not enough, take them from me."

"Thank you, thank you, Alchemist Chen!"

Gu Xinyue thanked him from the bottom of her heart. She wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but Chen An stopped her.

After that, as her future husband, Chen An brought his wife to Gu Xinyue's house to visit her seriously ill father.

He was very sick and had lost consciousness. He was only breathing weakly, no different from a vegetative person in his previous life.

Fortunately, he was a Cultivator at the third level of Qi Refinement. He could maintain his life by absorbing the spiritual energy in the spirit stones. He did not need to eat, drink, or poop. It was much easier to take care of him.

After visiting his future father-in-law, Chen An asked Gu Xinyue the question he had.

Why did she suddenly become so rich a few days ago, and now she suddenly became poor?

Later on, he learned that Gu Xinyue's spiritual sense was naturally much stronger than that of ordinary Cultivators.

When her cultivation was still at the first level of Qi Refinement, the strength of her divine sense was comparable to that of an intermediate stage Qi Refinement Cultivator.

With this, she joined a hunting team and played a supporting role. She was in charge of scouting for her teammates with her divine sense and hunting Blood Demons together. Therefore, she earned a lot of spiritual stones.

But recently, all the Blood Demons outside had been cleaned up by the Xuanhuang Sect, so there was no more hunting.

Hence, she lost her job and her source of income. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎

As for hunting other demon beasts, that was a job that only the advance-stage Qi Refinement Cultivators were qualified for consideration.

As for the Blood Demons, it was actually a bat demon. It was one of the weakest demon beasts in the cultivation world. Almost every Cultivator could hunt by forming a team.

It was that there was a risk of death.

After briefly understanding Gu Xinyue's personal family situation, Chen An only said, "I'll look for you again tonight." Soon, he left with his wife.

After all, she was just a concubine who had yet to be taken in. Moreover, the two of them did not have any feelings for each other previously. It was enough for her to care so much, lest she overdid it.

After leaving Gu Xinyue's house, Chen An and his wife found a less crowded and safer place to play.

It was wonderful to row a boat and admire the flowers while reciting poems.

During this period of time, his interest was piqued, and he even gained a lot of alchemy experience. His body and mind were greatly satisfied.

Seeing that the sky was about to darken, Chen An brought his wife to the market to buy the things he needed for his wedding with Gu Xinyue tonight.

After returning home and putting everything away, the couple began to work together.

Chen An was in charge of bringing Gu Xinyue over.

Song Huaying was responsible for cooking at home.

Chen An arrived at Gu Xinyue's house in a happy mood.

However, the moment she entered, she saw Gu Xinyue squatting in the corner with her hands on her knees and sobbing softly. She looked very dispirited.

Her father was dead.

He died not long after Chen An and his wife left this afternoon.

He had lost all his vitality and was no longer in the human world.

Chen An went forward and comforted her. Then, he and Gu Xinyue buried him.

It was buried in the backyard of Gu Xinyue's house.

After that, he planted a willow sapling on it as a form of spiritual sustenance.

"Fellow Cultivator Gu, I'll come and pick you up in a few days."

Chen An had originally planned to marry Gu Xinyue tonight, but coincidentally, Gu Xinyue's father had passed away on this day. He could only choose another day.

Gu Xinyue sobbed and didn't say anything else.

Hearing her grunt, Chen An couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

One had to know that the reason why Gu Xinyue was willing to be Chen An's concubine was entirely because she wanted to treat her seriously ill father.

Now that her father had passed away, Chen An was worried that she would go back on her word.

However, from the looks of it now, this worry was clearly a little unnecessary.

Gu Xinyue was more principled than he had imagined. She could carry out the words "do as I say" to the end.

In the next few days.

Chen An reduced the time he spent refining pills. He often took the time to go to Gu Xinyue's place to take a look, wanting to improve their relationship.

As his wife, Song Huaying would occasionally follow along and interact with her as a sister in advance.

In the blink of an eye, nearly half a month had passed since the day Gu Xinyue's father passed away.

On this day.

Chen An woke up early and prepared to bring Gu Xinyue, who lived opposite him, breakfast that he had personally made.

Creak—

He pushed open the gate of the courtyard and walked slowly towards Gu Xinyue's house.

However, just as he stepped over the threshold, he suddenly stopped and his gaze landed on the courtyard wall beside the door.

There, he saw Gu Xinyue sitting on the ground with her back against the courtyard wall, motionless. There were several bulging bags beside her.

"Fellow Cultivator Gu, why are you here?"

"Alchemist Chen, I'm here to get married to you."

"…"

After these two sentences, the air became a little quiet.

This cheap concubine seemed to be a little straightforward.

As he thought about it, Chen An went forward and picked up the bags beside Gu Xinyue. He smiled and said to her,

"Fellow Cultivator Gu, it's hot outside. Come in and have a seat."

"Yeah."

Gu Xinyue agreed wordlessly. She stood up silently and followed Chen An into the house.
