Becoming Immortal Through Getting Married

Chapter 39: All-out War

Did the people from the Black Iron Manor attack?

Hearing the Bamboo Leaf Gang Cultivator's shout, the residents of Green Willow Alley immediately turned pale with fright.

As Cultivators, the reason why they were willing to spend a large sum of money to rent a place in the Bamboo Leaf Forest was to obtain the protection of the Bamboo Leaf Gang.

Now, they were implicated because of the conflict between the Bamboo Leaf Gang and the Black Iron Manor.

"Ying'er, Yue'er."

"The two of you, go back to the house and pack your things. Be prepared to move out at any time."

"Fellow Cultivator Wen, follow me outside to take a look."

Chen An reacted very quickly and immediately made the corresponding arrangements, displaying the demeanor of the head of the family.

Song Huaying and Gu Xinyue were very obedient. They only said worriedly, "Husband, Sister Wen, be careful." Then, they turned around and ran into the house to pack their things.

Wen Zhiyun also changed from her usual attitude of whining and disagreeing with him. She silently followed him out of the courtyard.

At this moment, there were Cultivators standing in front of every house in Green Willow Alley.

Everyone was watching the situation. They wanted to see if they needed to uproot to escape.

But after watching it for a while, apart from the terrifying explosion at the beginning, the core area was quiet until now.

When Chen An saw that the Bamboo Leaf Gang Cultivators stationed in the core area were all running towards the cheap area where he had lived before and not towards the intersection between the Bamboo Leaf Forest and the Black Iron Manor, he could not help but feel puzzled.

These Cultivators of the Black Iron Manor did not attack from the border between the two gangs?

Soon, he remembered the scumbag whom he had taught a lesson in the market in the cheap district.

A male Cultivator who claimed that his father was an elder of the Black Iron Villa.

This scumbag often brought people to the market in the cheap district to cause trouble.

At that time, he thought that he was a profligate son who had nothing better to do and came to show off.

From the looks of it, this person was most likely here to scout the area.

This time, the reason why the Black Iron Villa launched a surprise attack using that cheap district as a breakthrough point was very likely because of the idea provided by that scumbag.

At the thought of this, Chen An realized that that scumbag was not simple.

It was very likely that they were spies from the Black Iron Manor.

Then there was the problem.

Was the attack on him when he moved from the cheaper district to the core district related to this scumbag?

Chen An fell into deep thought.

At this moment, there was hope in his heart.

Hopefully, that scumbag would die in this battle. Otherwise, he would feel uneasy with an enemy around.

"Everyone from Green Willow Alley!"

"Iron Manor is attacking the cheaper area in the south, 20 miles away from the core area!"

"Everyone is safe in the core area. There's no need to panic!"

"During this special period, everyone, go back to your rooms and stay there. Don't walk around, and don't leave the core area on your own!"

"Otherwise, they will be treated as spies of the Dark Iron Manor. They will be executed on the spot!"

Seeing that the residents of Green Willow Alley had run out of the house, the Bamboo Leaf Gang manager in charge of the core area walked over and said.

When everyone saw the steward arrive, many people could not help but ask:

"Steward Li, why did the people from the Dark Iron Manor suddenly attack us?"

"Yeah, this is too sudden."

"Steward Li, if you don't let us out, we won't be able to earn money to pay the rent."

"…"

Everyone asked one after another.

Steward Li didn't find it annoying. He just smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I'll give you a chance to earn rent soon."

Everyone looked at each other. They wanted to ask something else, but before they could say anything, Steward Li left.

"What do you think?"

Wen Zhiyun looked at Chen An and asked.

Chen An glanced in the direction of the cheaper district and then at the still calm core district.

"Let's take it one step at a time. Let's continue living here first. After all, it's very chaotic outside and not very safe."

"Alright, we'll go with your suggestion."

Wen Zhiyun nodded without thinking. She looked like Chen An's wife.

Chen An also noticed this, but he did not tease her. He was happy to see Wen Zhiyun's change in demeanor.

He didn't want Wen Zhiyun to take back her gentle attitude just because of a moment of teasing.

At this moment, Han Sanfan, who lived nearby, walked over and said:

"Fellow Cultivator Wen, I feel that the Bamboo Leaf Forest might not be safe. I have a friend in White River City. If something really happens to the Bamboo Leaf Forest, we will have to flee. Fellow Cultivator Wen, you can join me and seek refuge with that friend."

What do you mean by that? Poaching me in public?

Chen An frowned slightly. But before he could say anything, a female Cultivator opposite him said:

"Fellow Cultivator Han, you're going too far. Fellow Cultivator Wen is with Alchemist Chen. If you seduce Alchemist Chen's companion in public, Alchemist Chen might bear a grudge on you."

"That's right. You can't bully a friend's wife. If Fellow Cultivator Han doesn't follow the rules, he'll be beaten up sooner or later."

A female Cultivator who had just carried a urinal out of her house teased.

After saying that, he splashed the urine basin out, and the smell of urine instantly filled the air.

"You two bitches, don't frame me. I didn't mean that at all."

Han Sanfan scolded the two female Cultivators. After that, he turned back to Chen An and said with a smile, "Alchemist Chen, don't misunderstand. What I meant just now was that Fellow Cultivator Wen and Alchemist Chen will follow me to join my friend."

"Alchemist Chen, I still have something to do at home, so I'll go back first."

As if feeling guilty, Han Sanfan casually explained and turned to leave.

Chen An did not care about what he said at all.

At this moment, what he cared about was that Wen Zhiyun didn't refute the female Cultivator's words that the two of them were companions.

It seemed like she had tacitly agreed to this relationship. At least in the eyes of outsiders.

…

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

In the cheaper district, the people from the Black Iron Villa and the Bamboo Leaf Gang were still in conflict.

And the scale of the conflict is growing.

The battle line had spread to another cheap zone. Even at the frontal border, large-scale conflicts began to appear.

All in all, the war between the two gangs had completely broken out.

It would only get worse in the future. However, the good news was that the core area was still calm.

Apart from some price increases, everything else was basically unaffected.

After all, the core area was located near the center of the Bamboo Leaf Forest, which was also the headquarters of the Bamboo Leaf Gang.

As long as the Bamboo Leaf Gang did not fall, nothing would happen to the core area.

However, many of the residents in the core area were not confident in the Bamboo Leaf Gang.

Because in terms of strength, the Black Iron Manor was superior.

Another few days passed.

The war between the two factions became more and more intense, but they did not really go all out. They were still in the probing stage, and the situation was temporarily on par.

The residents in the core area were relatively peaceful and were not too affected.

As time passed, everyone inevitably relaxed.

He felt that the two gangs would not fight fiercely. At most, they would fight at the intersection.

It wouldn't be long before the negotiations came to an end.

Chen An thought so too. He felt that the Bamboo Leaf Gang and the Black Iron Manor would not go too far.

After all, the leaders of both sides were powerful Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had cultivated for a long time. It was impossible for them not to understand the principle of benefiting from the fight between the sandpiper and the clam.
