He didn't go looking for Bai Ling, nor did he seek out Zhao Xin and Zhou Ya.
Xu Lei hired a horse-drawn carriage and had the coachman take him to the Capital City.
He wanted to die near the Imperial Palace in the Capital City.
That way, he might be directly reincarnated into the Royal Family in his next life.
'That would be pretty good.'
As for why he didn't go looking for Bai Ling and the others...
It was, of course, because Xu Lei didn't want them to be tainted by his karmic ties.
He wanted to avoid having beings like Bodhisattva Guan Yun turn their attention to them.
If they suspected he had left the Dharma Gate to them, it would bring them danger, which would be disastrous.
Of course, as he sat in the carriage, Xu Lei could feel his body giving out at any moment.
He coughed constantly, spitting up blood.
However, after only a few hours of travel, while passing through a patch of woods, Bai Ling found him.
"Master!"
The carriage was stopped.
