After all, Xu Lei could only be reincarnated—he wasn't the reincarnation of an Ancient Spirit Immortal at all.
So naturally, he had no answer.
Of course, Qing Lian didn't say anything either. She just said that everything would have to wait until after the Secret Collection was opened, then fell silent.
Just then, Zhao Xin finished her meditation.
Qing Lian was right beside her, and it seemed she had already told Zhao Xin about Xu Lei.
"Uncle Hui Chi, you're back?" Zhao Xin sent a direct voice transmission to Xu Lei. "When did you Ascend? You're so cruel! It's been so long, and you're only just now coming to find us!"
"I couldn't get to the Nine Heavens before," Xu Lei transmitted back, a hint of helplessness in his tone. "If I could have, how could I not have come looking for you?"
"Once the Secret Collection is opened and this is all over..."
Zhao Xin said, "Uncle Hui Chi, you'll have to give me a thorough round of Charitable Giving!"
Xu Lei smiled and nodded.
