Chapter 318 - 142: The End of the Second Life

It was that old female Enchantress, and with her, the familiar face of Mei Xiong.

They had been intimidated by Xu Lei back in the Eastern Wilderness Marsh.

’But maybe that old Enchantress had left some kind of aura on me?’

’Is that why they’ve tracked me down now?’

’Did they know I’m weak and come to kill me?’

Of course, there was another possibility: Bodhisattva Guan Yun had told them Xu Lei’s whereabouts!

After all, Xu Lei now carried the aura of Bodhisattva Guan Yun.

It should be as easy as flipping a hand for Bodhisattva Guan Yun to find Xu Lei’s location.

But this was all just Xu Lei’s speculation.

There was no way to be sure.

Whether Bodhisattva Guan Yun was good or evil, friend or foe, was still unknown!

"So you really are at the end of your rope."

Just then, Mei Xiong sneered, "You were just putting on an act before."

"Hahahaha."

Xu Lei laughed. "That’s right, I was putting on an act. But so what?

The laughable thing is that the two of you were scared stiff by me!

You didn’t even dare to chase me down and kill me!

You just let me walk right out of the Eastern Wilderness Marsh."

Of course, Xu Lei hadn’t been able to restock his explosives.

Because before, Xu Lei suspected he was being watched by Bodhisattva Guan Yun.

So he hadn’t dared to go and get more.

"Mei Xiong, kill him."

The ancient female Enchantress spoke at that moment, her words in the Demon Language.

"Yes, Ancestor."

Mei Xiong immediately obeyed and moved forward to cut Xu Lei down.

His sharp claws were incomparably keen. As Demonic Power flowed through them, he lunged, swiping at the carriage horse.

He ripped the horse’s throat out directly.

At the same time, he grabbed both sides of the carriage and tore it apart.

He ripped the carriage to splinters.

Then he swiped a claw toward Xu Lei on the carriage.

SQUELCH.

He dug out Xu Lei’s heart.

Seeing that Xu Lei was indeed completely powerless to resist, that even his heart had been torn out by Mei Xiong...

"Damned thing!"

...the ancient female Enchantress also flashed over at high speed and kicked Xu Lei in the neck, snapping it instantly.

His head lolled to one side.

At this point, Xu Lei was, of course, dead.

He had died the moment Mei Xiong tore out his heart.

His vision went black.

The Ten Thousand Lives Book appeared again, informing Xu Lei that his second life had ended.

It detected that Xu Lei possessed a bloodline, so Xu Lei could choose to revive or reincarnate.

Xu Lei, of course, chose to reincarnate.

The Ten Thousand Lives Book immediately prompted that it was preparing for his third reincarnation.

At the same time, Xu Lei could see the situation around the place where he had died.

He saw his own corpse lying there on the ground.

There was a hole in its chest, the heart gone.

The neck was twisted, broken from the kick.

But the two Enchantresses hadn’t eaten Xu Lei’s body.

Because Xu Lei’s body was old.

A decrepit body wasn’t very appetizing.

Even demons found it disgusting.

So after killing Xu Lei, the two Enchantresses left.

At this moment, Xu Lei did not reincarnate immediately.

Instead, he watched his own corpse and couldn’t help but feel emotional.

’To think that this time, not only did I fail to kill Mei Xiong, but I died at his hands for a second time!’

Just thinking about it pissed Xu Lei off.

But there was nothing he could do.

Mei Xiong’s ancestor was too strong, too fast.

Xu Lei was simply no match for her.

Not unless Xu Lei’s Cultivation became much stronger.

Then, his own speed and defense would be far more formidable.

Only then could he hope to contend with that old Enchantress and use his explosives to wear her down and kill her.

As for Bodhisattva Guan Yun, they never appeared again.

Xu Lei also didn’t know if they were plotting against him.

Because Xu Lei wanted to see if Bodhisattva Guan Yun would appear, Xu Lei waited a long time before choosing to reincarnate.

He remained within the Ten Thousand Lives Book,

peering at the area around his corpse.

But after waiting for some time,

he didn’t see Bodhisattva Guan Yun.

He only saw Bai Ling.

She came running back, crying.

She threw herself down beside Xu Lei’s body.

"Master!"

"No!!!"

Bai Ling stared at Xu Lei’s gruesome corpse and burst into tears.

Because the two Human Puppets had a limited control range.

So when Xu Lei had activated the Puppets to carry Bai Ling far away, they had actually stopped after a certain distance.

And while Bai Ling hadn’t witnessed Xu Lei’s murder with her own eyes as she rushed back...

...the invisible Creepy Spirit had given her a live broadcast of the event.

It had relayed the details of Xu Lei’s death to her.

So by the time she reached the location, Bai Ling’s face was already streaked with tears.

She had said she would protect her master.

But her master had been right.

She really couldn’t protect him!

She was too weak!

"Master, Master, Master."

Bai Ling hugged Xu Lei’s head tightly to her chest, crying endlessly as she repeated that one word.

In the end, she cried until her voice was gone, until she had no tears left to shed.

Her heart was shattered by grief.

Because the first and only person in this world who had ever been so good to her was dead, gone forever.
