Immortal after a Hundred Reincarnations

Then, Zhi Can’s figure vanished directly from the battlefield, which was swirling with smoke and rubble.

At this, the expressions of Hui Cheng and the Old Daoist Nun turned ugly.

They flew forward, looking left and right, trying to find any trace of Zhi Can.

At this moment, however, Xu Lei had already spotted Zhi Can, thanks to his distance and wide field of view.

Zhi Can must have previously used some kind of Dharma Gate to temporarily conceal his figure.

While the explosion had captured the attention of Hui Cheng and his companion, Zhi Can had burst forward with ferocious speed, slipping away like a bolt of lightning.

But now, his figure had reappeared.

He coughed up blood, his steps staggered, and his body slumped before he tumbled to the ground.

It looked as if he had fallen unconscious immediately.

Looking through the Telescope, he saw that Hui Cheng and the Old Daoist Nun were still searching everywhere.

The Old Daoist Nun had even taken to the sky using Sword Control.

Although Zhi Can’s current location was relatively hidden, if this continued, he would be discovered sooner or later.

After a moment of thought, Xu Lei set off at once.

After reaching Zhi Can’s side, he took advantage of the fact that Hui Cheng and the Old Daoist Nun hadn’t noticed yet and carried Zhi Can into a cave.

Thanks to Xu Lei’s intervention, Hui Cheng and the Old Daoist Nun were ultimately unable to find him and could only fly into a helpless rage.

「Ten minutes later.」

Inside the cave, Zhi Can woke up.

"Uncle-Master Hui Yuan? What are you doing here?"

He looked astonished. Then, with great difficulty, he asked, "You saved me?"

"Amitabha Buddha."

Xu Lei said, "That’s right. I came into the mountains to gather herbs and just so happened to run into..."

"I’m not going to make it."

After assessing his own condition, Zhi Can said, "Uncle-Master Hui Yuan, this is a Demon Core. My Origin has been shattered, so I can no longer refine it."

"Take it. Although you don’t have Magical Power and can’t use it, I beg you to give it to a reliable person who possesses True Magical Power."

"Then, if possible, have them avenge me. Avenge me!"

After he finished speaking, Zhi Can’s hand fell limp.

It was merely a final burst of life.

His earlier escape from Hui Cheng and his companion had already cost him all of his Origin.

It was said that Zhi Can’s master had also passed away long ago.

That was why Zhi Can couldn’t even name a specific person to give the Demon Core to.

"Amitabha Buddha."

Xu Lei put away the Demon Core, reached out to gently close Zhi Can’s eyelids, and said softly, "Nephew-Disciple Zhi Can, as for this Demon Core of yours, I won’t look for anyone else."

"The truth is, I am also a True Monk with Magical Power."

"I promise you!"

"I will avenge you!"

"I’ll kill Hui Cheng and that Daoist Nun, his Dao Companion!"

"And if they have any children, I’ll find them and kill them too!"

"After all, those two old bastards tried to plot against me before!"

"In short, when the time is right, I will settle the score with them!"

"At that time, I’ll settle your account right along with mine!"

"Not a single one of them will escape!!!"

「One day later.」

Xu Lei had returned to Guangyuan Temple, resuming his usual appearance as Hui Yuan.

As for Zhi Can, he had, of course, been properly buried.

That old bastard Hui Cheng had also returned to Guangyuan Temple, once again putting on his usual kind and benevolent facade.

Facing him, Xu Lei cursed him inwardly, but his outward expression remained unchanged.

’After all, my Cultivation is still weaker than his. It’s not the right time to strike. I need time to build up my strength! I need to find the right opportunity to make my move! Besides, I’m still young! I’m in no hurry!’

’Before then, I must focus on my own Cultivation. At the same time, I have to keep working, step by step, on my mission to "sow my seeds" and prepare several backups, like a cunning rabbit with many burrows, until the task is complete.’

’That way, when I finally have to fight Hui Cheng and the Old Daoist Nun to the death, I won’t have to panic. After all, if I die, I’ll definitely be able to reincarnate directly as a man.’

’Of course, I haven’t fathered enough children yet. If there are too few, and some great disaster befalls all the children I’ve fathered in this life, I might not be able to achieve my goal of reincarnating as a male.’

’And today, my "sowing seeds" mission is about to make progress again!’

’The beautiful young lady from the Zhu Family, who said she would think about it for a month before coming back to pray for a child, has arrived!’

Xu Lei went to welcome her, handling everything just as he had when he received the lady from the Shen Family.

There was a brief conversation, a check of her physical health, and then a bath to prepare for the Charitable Giving.

「That evening.」

Xu Lei arrived at the Almsgiving Room.

He slowly embraced the lady from the Zhu Family from behind.

’The sooner I bestow enough children, the more secure my guarantee for reincarnation will be. Only then can I focus on growing stronger, deal with Hui Cheng and the Old Daoist Nun without holding back, and ultimately slay them!’
