Chapter 454: Severe Punishment
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Living area, at the market.
Chen An disguised himself as an ordinary-looking male Cultivator and walked unhurriedly on the street that was filled with shouts.
Because his appearance was ordinary, no female Cultivator was willing to look at him along the way.
‘It’s really relaxing to not be handsome…’ Chen An sighed in his heart.
In the past, when he went out, he went out with his true appearance and each time he would be looked at by a large number of female Cultivators, which made him very vexed.
And now that worry is gone.
He walked on the busy street, looking exceptionally at ease.
“What should I buy?”
“Forget it. I’ll just buy whatever I think is interesting. What I give isn’t important. What’s important is the intention.”
“As long as they can receive my gift, I believe that no matter what they receive, my wives and daughters will be very happy.”
As he thought about it, Chen An bought all kinds of gorgeous high-end dresses, priceless jewelry, and delicious food.
In the end, when he passed by a bookshop, he even went in to buy a large number of story books for his wives and daughters to read when they were bored.
After buying so many gifts, Chen An felt that it was about time, so he planned to return home.
Just as he was about to teleport away, a pregnant woman who passed by him suddenly fell to the ground. She sat on the ground and moaned in pain, as if she had fallen quite heavily.
“Are you alright, Fellow Cultivator?”
Seeing this, Chen An cancelled the teleportation array and went forward to ask with concern.
Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking, the pregnant female Cultivator grabbed his leg tightly and shouted miserably,
“You want to leave after hitting someone?!”
“Everyone, stop him! Don’t let him escape!”
“It wasn’t easy for me to get pregnant, but you knocked me to the ground without looking. If anything happens to the child in my womb, 1 won’t let you off!”
While the female Cultivator was shouting, a male Cultivator hurried over from the front.
When he saw the female Cultivator sitting on the ground, he immediately glared at Chen An and cursed.
“You blind dog. You knocked my pregnant wife to the ground and still want to run?”
“My wife’s pregnancy was injured by you. You have to compensate us!”
“At least one high-grade spirit stone. Don’t even think about leaving if it’s less than this!”
‘Good lord, was this a scam?’
Chen An was shocked. He did not expect to encounter such a thing in the sect.
As the couple deliberately shouted, the scene was quickly surrounded by Cultivators who were watching the show.
Many of them were simple-minded and believed whatever the couple said. They opened their mouths and condemned Chen An.
“What is wrong with him? How could he knock down such a pregnant woman on the road? Such a cruel person!”
They said that he had to pay compensation. Otherwise, he would get the people from the Law Enforcement Hall to throw him into jail.
Chen An could not be bothered to explain. He planned to use Scene Backtrack technique to prove his innocence and expose the true, ugly side of the couple.
However, just as he was about to backtrack, he heard the onlookers shout,
“The people from the Law Enforcement Hall are here!”
“It’s Deacon Shen!”
“It’s good that they’re here. If this guy dares not to compensate, I’ll have them throw him into the dungeon of the Law Enforcement Hall and lock him up!”

Hearing the voices around him, Chen An stopped looking back and silently looked up at the sky.
Then, he saw Shen Qingyi flying towards the scene with a few people from the Law Enforcement Hall.
Soon, Shen Qingyi and her subordinates fluttered into the crowd.
Her aura was very oppressive.
Many people around her took a step back consciously.
However, there were also many people who took a step forward, wanting to get closer to Shen Qingyi.
These people were all Shen Qingyi’s fans.
Men saw her as his dream lover.
Women regarded her as an idol.
Shen Qingyi was very popular and was very well-liked among the low-level members of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.
This was because she dared to punish anyone when she was enforcing the law. She could not stand wrongdoings, no matter how small.
In the past few days, she had taken care of many disciples of the sect.
Without exception, they were all taught a lesson by her.
However, none of these rich and powerful descendants dared to make a sound. They were basically punished until they covered their heads and fled like rats. They hid when they saw her.
Even the elders were the same.
Everyone knew that Shen Qingyi was Chen An’s concubine, but no one dared to go against her.
It was also because even though Shen Qingyi was Chen An’s concubine, she had never relied on this identity to do evil. That was why she was so loved and worshiped by the Cultivators at the bottom of the sect.
“Deacon Shen, this person knocked down my pregnant wife, but he didn’t say a word of apology. He even pretended that nothing had happened and left. Can the rich and powerful do whatever they want?”
“Deacon Shen, you’re also a pregnant woman yourself. You know how fragile a pregnant woman’s body is. It’s easy for her to have a miscarriage if she’s casually bumped into. I’m kneeling down for you. You have to stand up for me!”
When the male Cultivator saw Shen Qingyi, he immediately knelt down with a plop and pretended to be pitiful. He tried his best to portray himself and his pregnant wife as pitiful victims being bullied by the rich and powerful to gain sympathy.
Shen Qingyi said with a straight face, “You don’t have to kneel and beg me. If you’re really bullied, I’ll definitely stand up for you.”
The male Cultivator did not get up and insisted on kneeling.
His pregnant wife even sat on the ground and said that she was in pain here and there.
Chen An was amused.
He did not expect to encounter such a mess on his first trip in disguise.
There was really no one else with such luck.
“Is it really as they said? You knocked down a pregnant woman and left without saying anything?”
