Immortal after a Hundred Reincarnations

"That’s all I can give."

Xu Lei didn’t say anything more.

He still hadn’t revealed the secret of the Phoenix True Flame.

It made him feel a little too selfish.

But in the end, he kept it to himself.

He just stared silently at the long hair cascading down the girl’s back.

Another half an hour passed.

"How is it?"

Zhao Xin asked with a sweet smile, "Was Xin’er good?"

"You’ve worked hard."

Xu Lei added, "You’re too good. Too good to me. It makes my heart ache a little."

"What’s there to ache about?"

Zhao Xin said, "I’m just treating this like a game. I never said I wanted to be your Dao Companion or anything. You should hurry up and find a Dao Companion. Then she can truly engage in Dual Cultivation with you. And even bear your children..."

Looking at the girl before him,

Xu Lei was suddenly no longer silent.

He wrapped an arm around Zhao Xin’s slender waist and pulled her to him.

He sat her directly on his lap, holding her in his embrace.

"Y-You, what are you doing?"

Zhao Xin was flustered. "I can’t feel lust or desire for matters between men and women! You can’t hold me."

"Xin’er, will you be my Dao Companion?"

But Xu Lei said, "No. From this moment on, you *are* my Dao Companion! Don’t worry. I actually possess the Phoenix True Flame. It can free you from the ascetic hardships of cultivation. You won’t have to continue practicing abstinence and suppressing your love!"

That’s right.

At that moment, Xu Lei felt the girl’s deep affection.

He had finally decided to reveal the matter of the Phoenix True Flame.

After all, he still had more than nine thousand reincarnations left. It wasn’t as if he couldn’t take a single risk. Even if the girl before him had a change of heart in the future and stole his Phoenix True Flame, he would only lose some Treasures. It was a loss he could bear. He could just find more Treasures in his next life.

The main thing was that the girl before him was filled with deep affection for him. Although she was still bound by abstinence, she had still striven to give him everything she could.

Xu Lei truly couldn’t bring himself to hide it any longer.

"What? You actually have the Phoenix True Flame?"

Zhao Xin was stunned, her small, cherry-like lips parting. "Doesn’t that mean... there are no more obstacles between us? We can be together! We can become Dao Companions! I can be your woman! We can have a true union of yin and yang! I can even bear your children! And I don’t have to wait decades!"

Her beautiful eyes glistening with tears, she immediately wrapped her slender arms around Xu Lei, hugging him tightly. "You big dummy, you kept this from me the whole time. You made me think I’d fallen for someone I could never be with. The thought of having to watch you walk hand-in-hand with another Female Cultivator... Xin’er can’t tell you how much her heart ached. Of course, Xin’er doesn’t blame you. After all, a secret like the Phoenix True Flame is a matter of great importance. But you’ve told Xin’er now! Mmm~~ Xin’er also swears an oath..."

The vicious oath she swore was similar to the one Xu Lei had made before.

Hearing this, Xu Lei’s heart relaxed considerably.

Her oath completely quelled the worries that had made him hesitate to reveal the secret of the Phoenix True Flame.

’From now on, it’ll be good that we won’t be coveting each other’s Treasures.’

"Silly girl.

How can you be so understanding?

So cute?

So beautiful?

So lovable?"

Xu Lei couldn’t help but hug Zhao Xin, caressing her smooth, delicate cheek. "Is your mouth tired? How about I give you a mouth massage?"

"It’s not tired. I’m fine," Zhao Xin said. "A mouth massage? How do you do that?"

"Like this."

With that, Xu Lei pressed his lips to Zhao Xin’s. "Mmmph—"

Amidst her soft cry, he truly stole her first kiss.

In the past year, the two had never kissed.

After all, she was afraid that kissing would stir her carnal desires.

But now, of course, there was no problem.

If her Essence Qi was depleted because of it, the Phoenix True Flame could allow her to eat meat and other rich foods to refine and replenish it.

Of course, Xu Lei didn’t consummate their relationship right then and there.

Because Zhao Xin had just finished... serving him.

Xu Lei needed to rest a bit as well.

So, the two just continued to kiss passionately.

But unexpectedly, at that very moment...

"Living Buddha, we have news."

The report came from the middle-aged confidant from before, his voice carrying through the door. "This old servant had some men disguise themselves as street vendors to keep watch on the roads. As expected, we spotted the individuals from the portrait you had us searching for all those years ago. They are heading our way. And there are as many as ten of them! It seems some of the people at our outpost have betrayed us. Or rather, they fell into the enemy’s hands and couldn’t keep their mouths shut."

"What? They’re all here?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Lei’s eyes lit up. "Excellent, excellent! Let them come! This is the perfect chance to catch them all in one net!"

’After all, I have the Trapped Dragon Heaven-Strangling Array now. This is one of the most important Treasures left behind by Hui Ming, who successfully achieved Nirvana Ascension! And even if something unexpected happens, with my current Power, I can activate the incredibly fast Locust Leaf Flying Ship and still escape!’

"There are actually ten Spirit Monsters?"

Zhao Xin said in pleasant surprise, "Uncle Hui Chi, you’re amazing! You actually managed to lure ten Spirit Monsters? If we get ten Demon Cores at once, we can refine them for a long time! Our Cultivation will definitely improve by a lot!"
