Immortal after a Hundred Reincarnations
Chapter 268 - 128: Hui Lu’s Return"And then there’s me, Xin’er. You can have me whenever you want.
Whenever you desire, I’m all yours!"
"Xin’er, you really are a sweetheart."
Xu Lei nodded, stepped forward to embrace Zhao Xin, and kissed her smooth back. "Since you’re being so good," he said, "your Uncle Hui Chi will give you a little reward."
「Several hours later.」
Xu Lei was already in the Cultivation Room, cultivating alone.
After his usual period of seated Cultivation...
HUMMM!
Suddenly, the Magical Power around Xu Lei surged, and his Qi began to rise.
’I’ve finally reached the Sixth Tier of the Bodhisattva Core Realm!’
Through Introspection, Xu Lei saw that on the Bodhi Tree atop his Lotus Platform, the sixth fruit had finally condensed its core. He sighed internally, ’It hasn’t been easy. More than five years!’
That’s right. In all the time since his return from the battle on the outskirts of the Eastern Wilderness Marsh, Xu Lei had only just now managed to advance another Small Realm.
This was because Xu Lei had only taken a very small portion of the Demon Core he’d obtained from Mei Ying back then.
He had given the rest to Jingchun.
After all, it was thanks to Jingchun that he had been able to severely injure the two Enchantresses, Mei Ying and Mei Li.
Jingchun’s Magical Power consumption at the time had been greater than Xu Lei’s.
Ultimately, she had only acted because of him.
Besides, she was also going to get pregnant and bear his children.
During pregnancy, her body would naturally be more limited than before.
Her Cultivation would also be affected to some degree.
That was why Xu Lei had given the bulk of the Demon Core to Jingchun.
The fact that he had managed to slay Mei Ying was a form of revenge, which was psychologically satisfying enough for him.
’Time to continue consolidating.’
Then, without stopping, Xu Lei continued his Cultivation. ’I need to keep up the momentum!’
「Half a month later.」
Chun Ying had been buried.
Life was once again about the three of them: Xu Lei, Zhao Xin, and Jingchun.
Though to be more accurate, it was about Xu Lei and Zhao Xin... and Jingchun.
For in the past half-month, Xu Lei had indeed not performed any more Charitable Giving for Jingchun.
For one, she had just mourned Chun Ying and was not in a good mood.
For another, she had never again indicated that she needed Charitable Giving.
After all, she had said from the beginning that she did not love Xu Lei.
For them, having children was just about having children.
The Charitable Giving had only happened because of the soul-swap.
Now, the soul-swap was over.
Thus, Jingchun had returned to her role as the inviolable senior brother’s wife.
One day, after finishing his daily Cultivation, Xu Lei stretched and walked down the manor’s corridor.
Suddenly, Xu Lei heard a baby crying.
"Madam, Madam, the young master is hungry."
A servant girl, holding the baby, arrived outside a study, speaking as she walked in.
"Give him to me."
Jingchun’s voice came from within.
After a moment, the servant girl came back out.
Xu Lei walked over as well.
Inside the study, Jingchun was breastfeeding the son she’d had with Xu Lei.
As for their two daughters, arrangements had been made for them to enter the Daoist Sect and live with their masters.
Their masters were all Female Daoists, so there were no issues.
But their son was not yet a year old, so naturally, she kept him with her.
So when Xu Lei arrived, he saw Jingchun with her clothes partially undone, breastfeeding the son in her arms.
She was turned sideways to him and didn’t see him at first.
Xu Lei watched quietly, doing nothing.
He watched until Jingchun had fed the baby and he had fallen asleep.
Jingchun placed the baby in a nearby cradle.
As she did so, her clothes remained undone, the partial view of her breathtakingly beautiful.
Just then, she noticed Xu Lei. Her pretty face blushed, and with a slight turn, she faced away from him.
But Xu Lei couldn’t help but walk in, wrap his arms around her waist from behind, and embrace her still incredibly alluring body.
"Can the baby finish it all by himself?"
Xu Lei said, "Do you... need my help?"
In the past, there were times when Jingchun’s body produced more milk than the baby could drink.
In those situations, Xu Lei would always help.
So now, he was just asking like he always had before.
"Hui Chi, let go of me!"
But unexpectedly, Jingchun was not the same as before.
Her whole body stiffened, and then she struggled violently, breaking free from Xu Lei’s embrace.
Then, with a serious expression, she said in a heavy voice, "We can’t go on like this!
Hui Chi, I’m very grateful to you for these past few years.
You gave me three children, allowing my mother to pass away without regrets.
But, as we said from the beginning, it was only about having children.
I know you’re a good person, and you’ve been very good to me.
But my heart already belonged to your Senior Brother Hui Lu first.
What happened to him back then was because he was trying to save me. I... I cannot betray him!
Actually, I’ve already found a way... a way that might be able to summon his soul back.
Your Senior Brother Hui Lu is coming back, so we can’t be like this anymore.
Having three children with you is already a betrayal to him.
I hope that our previous relationship can stop here."
"What?"
Xu Lei was stunned. "You’ve found a way?
I see. I understand now.
No wonder your attitude these past few days has been so different, as if you were a completely different person.
Fine, I won’t say anything else then.
We’ll do as you say.
We’ll go back to how our relationship was at the beginning.
We’ll forget all about the Charitable Giving of these past years.
Don’t worry, I won’t ruin your plan.
When Senior Brother Hui Lu returns, I won’t mention a single word of this to him."
"Thank you."
Hearing this, Jingchun’s expression softened slightly. "Thank you, Junior Brother Hui Chi.
However, to save your Senior Brother, I will need the help of two people.
When the time comes, would you and Jin Xin be willing to help?"
"What? This...?"
Xu Lei froze for a moment, then said, "You still want my help?"
