Immortal after a Hundred Reincarnations

"It’s time to finish off this Centipede Demon!"

Then, Xu Lei activated his black alms bowl. The Lotus Treasure Fragments flew in and, with their aid, easily slew the massive Centipede Demon he had captured all those years ago.

That’s right. The great Centipede Demon hadn’t died all these years. It had merely been suppressed at the bottom of the alms bowl.

"I’ve finally gotten my hands on this Demon Core!"

A smile spread across Xu Lei’s face. "As expected of the strongest one, its Demon Core is the largest!

This wasn’t easy. It’s been over a decade!"

Afterward, Xu Lei naturally began refining the Demon Core to restore his Magical Power, gradually replenishing his body’s reserves.

「Over ten days later.」

His Magical Power now mostly restored, Xu Lei walked out of the Cultivation Room.

’With my current strength, if I run into Hui Cheng or the Old Daoist Nun again, I’ll have nothing to fear!’

Xu Lei thought to himself, ’Even in a one-on-one, direct confrontation, there shouldn’t be a problem!

If I can arrange something to injure them before I strike, I’ll definitely be able to kill them!

It’s time to settle all the scores, one by one!’

Of course, he hadn’t yet been able to find where Hui Cheng and the Old Daoist Nun were.

He would have to start by gathering information.

Xu Lei was in no rush, however.

After all, before he set out, he still had to make arrangements for his various businesses and assets.

And so, Xu Lei began inspecting his enterprises.

He had to decide which reliable people to appoint as managers for while he was away.

But one day...

"Shopkeeper Xu, thank you!"

To his surprise, Xu Lei ran into Madam Li, who had come to express her gratitude. "Thank you for being willing to help our family during our most difficult time!

And for letting Old Li work for you!

Thank you!"

"It was nothing."

Xu Lei waved his hand dismissively. "It was a trivial effort, not worth mentioning."

This was because Master Li’s business ventures had failed over the past decade, and he had lost nearly everything.

With nowhere else to turn, Xu Lei had given him a position in one of his enterprises.

"I regret it!"

As Xu Lei turned to leave, Madam Li called out, "Xu Shan, what do you think would have happened if I had chosen to marry you back then?"

But Xu Lei didn’t turn back. His stride faltered for just a moment before he continued on his way.

’There was no point in discussing it.’

The reason Xu Lei helped Old Li was because the four children borne by his two wives were the result of prayers at the temple.

That’s right. Over the past decade, both Madam Li and Master Li’s concubine had once again gone to the temple and successfully prayed for a son.

Of course, neither of them knew that the one performing the "Charitable Giving" was Xu Lei.

Xu Lei paid Madam Li no further mind.

He could perform "Charitable Giving" for Madam Li at the temple, but he would not become entangled with her under his identity as Xu Shan.

Madam Li could only depart, a complicated look in her eyes.

The Zen Master Bu Zhong’s "business" at Guangyuan Temple hadn’t made much progress in recent years.

Surprisingly, not a single new female Devotee suitable for Xu Lei’s "Charitable Giving" had come forward.

Only a few of the old regulars, like Madam Li, had come back for more.

There was nothing to be done about it. Guangyuan Temple simply wasn’t that popular for those seeking to have children.

Besides, Xu Lei hadn’t really put much effort into promoting the service in recent years.

He felt that the women he had already performed "Charitable Giving" for were more or less enough.

Thus, he usually spent his time with the women who were already by his side.

As for everything else, he let nature take its course.

「Half an hour later.」

Xu Lei returned to "Xu Shan’s" home.

His seven children—four boys and three girls of various ages—were all very respectful upon seeing Xu Lei.

Over the years, Su Chun and Yiyi had each given birth to three children.

The reason there were seven children was that one of the sons had been borne by Yan’er.

Following the last wish of an old woman, Xu Lei had brought him over to be raised by the Xu Family.

"Husband!"

After she closed the door, Su Chun, now twenty-six or twenty-seven, hugged Xu Lei. "Let’s have another child, shall we?

While I’m still young!"

Xu Lei embraced her and began his "Charitable Giving."

「The next day.」

Yiyi, who had also become a young wife, came to serve him tea.

But Xu Lei simply ordered her to strip, lie prone on the table before him, and prepare to receive his frenzied "Charitable Giving."

「A day later.」

Xu Lei went to see Yan’er.

Their little girl, who was just five years old, was incredibly affectionate with Xu Lei.

Over the years, Yan’er had borne Xu Lei only one son and one daughter.

After they had played for a while, Xu Lei had a servant take the little girl away to play.

"Yan’er, let’s have another child,"

Xu Lei said, holding Yan’er. "It’s not good that we only have one daughter in this household!

The house feels a little empty, for one thing!

And this side of the family needs a male heir to inherit it!"

Upon hearing this, Yan’er naturally agreed.

Without another word, Xu Lei carried her to the window and began his "Charitable Giving."

「Another month later.」

Xu Lei had gotten Su Chun, Yiyi, and Yan’er pregnant once more!

He returned to the vicinity of Ning’an Temple.

Over the years, Shen Ling’er had borne Xu Lei two sons and two daughters.

On this day, Xu Lei had originally gone to see Zhi Jian and his wife.

He hadn’t expected to find that Shen Ling’er had also returned to her family home.

That night, Zhi Jian and his wife arranged for Xu Lei and Shen Ling’er to stay over, just as they had all those years ago.

Zhi Jian’s health had been damaged back then, so he had aged rather quickly.

His hair was now completely white.

Wrinkles had also appeared on Zhi Jian’s wife.

Xu Lei, however, still looked as if he were in his early thirties.

Night.

Holding Shen Ling’er, Xu Lei performed his "Charitable Giving" silently, but with great intensity.

「Several days later.」

Xu Lei arrived at the Mu Prince’s Mansion.

By this time, Shen Ling’er was pregnant again.

However, on this day, just as Xu Lei arrived at the Mu Prince’s Mansion, he was stunned to see the figure of the Old Daoist Nun!

He had been searching for any trace of her without success, and now he had run into her here, of all places!
