Becoming Immortal Through Getting Married

Chapter 31: Explosive Spell

A deafening explosion sounded. Waves of terrifying shockwaves instantly spread out like a tidal wave.

Wherever it went, soil and rocks flew, and trees were broken.

Before Chen An and Wen Zhiyun could run out of the courtyard, they were sent flying.

The two of them collided heavily and rolled a few times on the ground before stopping.

"It hurts, it hurts too much!"

Chen An lay on the ground, his right hand tightly covering the back of his head. It was so painful that he could not open his eyes.

Just as he rolled over, the back of his head collided with the stones on the ground several times.

It smashed into several rocks. The price was that he felt the back of his head being smashed.

"You… Get up!"

Chen An was still in pain when a panicked shout suddenly came from below.

He looked down and realized that he had pressed Wen Zhiyun under him at some point.

Their bodies were tightly pressed against each other, and one could clearly hear her breathing and heartbeat.

The back of his head was hurting badly just now, so he did not notice that there was someone under him…

Chen An thought to himself and quickly got up from Wen Zhiyun's body.

Without speaking to her, he looked up at the thick smoke in front of him.

The house collapsed.

It shattered on the ground. It was charred black.

Several terrifying cracks appeared on the ground, like bottomless abysses.

This time, the power of the dust bomb was astonishing!

"With such terrifying destructive power, the four Dark Iron Manor spies in the tunnel must have been blown to pieces. They are deader than dead."

Chen An looked at the ruins in front of him and muttered.

Wen Zhiyun stood up from the ground and patted the dust off her body.

Then, her gaze involuntarily landed on Chen An, who was in front of her. When she realized that his side profile was so handsome, a ripple appeared in her heart.

Just now, she was pressed against the ground by Chen An, and her mind went blank.

In her 38 years of life, this was the first time she had come into such close contact with a man.

When she recalled the feeling of being pressed to the ground and unable to move, she could not help but have a strange feeling in her heart.

It was a very strange feeling that made her involuntarily and despicably yearn to be pressed down by Chen An and be unable to move.

"Husband!"

"Husband, Sister Wen!"

Not far away, he heard the voices of his wife and concubine.

Chen An looked in the direction of the voice and saw Song Huaying running over with a big belly and Gu Xinyue, who seemed to be injured, running beside her.

"Yue'er, why is your shoulder injured?"

Chen An hurriedly went to welcome his icy concubine. When he saw her injured and bleeding shoulder, his face could not help but be filled with worry.

Song Huaying said:

"I don't know why, but there was a sudden explosion next door. Then, Sister Wen's house shook violently and rubble and beams fell."

"When Sister Gu saw that I was about to be hit, she immediately rushed over and used her body to protect me."

"After that, Sister Gu was injured."

At this point, Song Huaying's face could not help but flash with a trace of guilt.

After understanding what had happened, Chen An immediately took out the healing pills he carried with him. He carefully pulled off the clothes on Gu Xinyue's shoulder and carefully cleaned and applied medicine on her wound.

Fortunately, she was fine, just a little bruised. She would be fine soon after applying some medicine.

[You treated your wife, Gu Xinyue's wound. Couple relationship +1.]

As time passed, the surroundings were gradually surrounded by Cultivators who had come to investigate.

These Cultivators had just heard the deafening explosion. They had specially come out to see what was going on.

When they saw the ruins in front of them that had been blasted to pieces and only a pile of thick smoke was left, they could not help but feel shocked.

Oh my god, the entire house collapsed? What kind of godly means did he have to do this?

What the hell happened?

Soon, the people from the Bamboo Leaf Gang arrived.

When they saw the ruins in front of them, they were equally shocked. They could not imagine what had just happened there.

Seeing this, Chen An immediately went forward to explain.

About 15 minutes ago, four spies of the Dark Iron Villa who were at the advance stage of Qi Refining stage attacked Wen Zhiyun's house at night.

He, who lived next door, saw it and lured the four of them to his house. He designed a large number of explosive talismans to kill them.

Their bodies were now buried in the tunnels of their homes. If they hadn't been blown to pieces, they should have been able to dig them out.

Hearing Chen An's explanation, the people from the Bamboo Leaf Gang immediately went forward to dig the tunnel.

In less than 15 minutes, four charred and incomplete corpses were dug out.

After some appraisal, it was confirmed that they were Cultivators from the Black Iron Villa.

"You said that these four spies of the Black Iron Villa with cultivation at the advance stage of Qi Refining were killed by you with a large number of explosive talismans?"

A Bamboo Leaf Gang elder in charge of leading the team asked doubtfully.

Chen An nodded and said, "Yes, Fellow Cultivator Wen next door can testify."

Hearing this, the elder of the Bamboo Leaf Gang looked at Wen Zhiyun.

Wen Zhiyun finally knew how to cooperate this time, and she very conspicuously lied along with Chen An's answer. "Fellow Cultivator Chen's words are true."

However, the Bamboo Leaf Gang elder was still suspicious.

What kind of explosive talisman was so powerful that it could kill four Cultivators with advance-stage Qi Refining cultivation and blow up an entire house?

Even a second-grade talisman wouldn't have such power, right?

Although he was conflicted, the Bamboo Leaf Gang elder did not probe further.

After all, every Cultivator had their own secrets. In the cultivation world, asking about secrets was a huge taboo.

After understanding what had happened, the elder of the Bamboo Leaf Gang took advantage of the fact that there were many people and immediately rewarded Chen An and Wen Zhiyun for their contributions to motivate the Cultivators present.

"If you kill four spies from the Black Iron Villa who are at the advance stage of Qi Refining, you will be exempted from rent for eight months."

"But because of this, two houses have been destroyed. Two months of rent-free compensation will be deducted, and only six months of rent will be waived."

"You two can distribute the rent-free rewards for the next six months as you wish. After the distribution is done, you can come to the Law Enforcement Hall to register with me."

After saying this, the Bamboo Leaf Gang elder left with the four charred corpses.

At the same time, conversation broke out all around.

"Six months rent-free. This is equivalent to being rewarded with 600 low-grade spirit stones. How enviable."

"Why am I still refining weapons? I might as well find a way to expose the spies of the Black Iron Manor."

"You're only a Blacksmith at the intermediate stage of the Qi Refining Stage. Don't you know that these are four spies from the Black Iron Villa who are at the advance stage of the Qi Refining Stage?"

"…"

Not long after, the Cultivators who came to spectate dispersed and left. The surroundings quickly returned to calm.

During this period, many Cultivators came over to ask Chen An about the specific situation. They felt that Chen An had been holding back just now, not telling the truth or deliberately hiding something.

Chen An could not be bothered with them, but he could not ignore them. He could only briefly repeat what he had just said to the Bamboo Leaf Gang elder.

After everyone left, Wen Zhiyun immediately looked at Chen An and asked with a puzzled expression, "How did you do that big explosion just now?"

She knew that it was a taboo to ask others about their secrets. However, she was really curious and could only willfully break the rules this once.

Seeing Wen Zhiyun's curious expression, Chen An knew that he was already stable.

This was because when a woman was curious about a man, it meant that she was already half a step into the trap.

"I learned a spell before. It can create an explosion out of thin air through a chant."

Chen An made up a story.

Unfortunately, Wen Zhiyun's curiosity was completely piqued. She couldn't tell if it was real or fake. She asked anxiously, "What's the name of this spell?"

"High school chemistry."

"High what what?"

"Fellow Cultivator Wen, I can tell you the incantation of this spell, but in exchange, you have to answer a question of mine truthfully."

"Sure."

Wen Zhiyun agreed readily. At this moment, nothing was more important than satisfying her curiosity.

Seeing that she had taken the bait, Chen An leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus, chloride, argon, and potassium, calcium."
