Chapter 100: Chapter 85: Qi Yang Sends a Treasure Again
「An hour later.」
Xu Lei stepped out of the room.
"Little Divine Monk, how did it go?"
The Lord County Magistrate immediately asked, "I thought I heard some strange noises just now."
"Amitabha Buddha."
Xu Lei said, "Sir, everything I have done was to save your daughter.
And I have not sullied her honor.
Nor will I ever speak a word of this to anyone.
The Demon was weakened this time, and some of the white spots on your daughter’s body have faded.
But it’s not enough. This may take a little over a month."
The Lord County Magistrate said nothing more after that.
However, after arranging for Xu Lei’s accommodations,
he still had the female servants of the house go in and check on his daughter.
By this point, the county magistrate’s daughter was, of course, fully dressed.
Her pretty face, however, was flushed, and she was radiating a lustrous glow.
"My lord, the young mistress is indeed still a virgin."
Soon, a loyal old servant woman came to report. "The young mistress didn’t elaborate on how exactly the Little Divine Monk is expelling the Demon, though."
The Lord County Magistrate breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
「Nearly a month later.」
The county magistrate’s daughter’s health had improved greatly.
Xu Lei had absorbed and refined many of the white spots from her body.
"Martial Uncle, thank you, Martial Uncle!"
One day, Zhi Jian secretly approached Xu Lei in the garden. "Martial Uncle, thanks to you, we’ve grown close to the Lord County Magistrate.
My business has improved tremendously, and even my father-in-law looks at me in a new light.
After all these years, his family has finally, formally accepted me.
It’s all thanks to you, Martial Uncle."
"Amitabha Buddha."
Xu Lei said, "Excellent, excellent.
This, too, is a meritorious deed.
Besides, there’s no need for thanks.
My own Cultivation has improved from this as well. It’s faster than cultivating on my own!"
"By the way, Martial Uncle, you’ve been expelling the Demon from the county magistrate’s daughter for these past weeks."
Zhi Jian said, now a little worried, "You must not be captivated by her beauty.
Breaking your vow of chastity would ruin your Cultivation!
If that happens, my sin will be great!
After all, I couldn’t overcome that same trial when I was young, and that’s why I gave up my Cultivation!
And this county magistrate’s daughter... her looks and figure are even better than my wife’s!
Of course, my heart belongs only to my wife.
But speaking from the heart, the county magistrate’s daughter is definitely more beautiful!"
"Amitabha Buddha."
Xu Lei said, "Rest assured. I know what I’m doing."
"I know your heart is set on longevity, Martial Uncle."
Zhi Jian said, "But while you may be fine, Martial Uncle,
I can’t help but feel something is off about the county magistrate’s daughter.
The way she looks at you now, her eyes are always glistening.
What if she has designs on you, Martial Uncle?
What will you do then?"
"Say no more."
Xu Lei said, "This White Spot Spirit Monster is almost completely eradicated.
In three more days, I will leave."
Zhi Jian’s words, however, left Xu Lei feeling a little restless.
It wasn’t that he was lovesick.
That was impossible.
But it did make Xu Lei think of the girl’s delicate, graceful, smooth, and soft body. At his age, a single spark could set him off.
Just then,
"Little Divine Monk!"
The county magistrate’s daughter came jogging over, looking nimble and cute in a cinched-waist dress.
Her features were as lovely as a painting, and her fair cheeks were smudged with a bit of ash from the kitchen.
She said in a sweet voice, "I made some new vegetarian dishes for you today. Please, see how they taste."
Seeing this, Zhi Jian tactfully excused himself.
Before he left, he looked at the county magistrate’s daughter’s charming and adorable appearance.
He couldn’t help but be moved by her delicate, youthful figure, her skin as fair as jade, and the very picture she made, preparing soup with her own hands.
’If it were me,’ Zhi Jian thought to himself, ’could I resist such a temptation?’
But he had already warned Xu Lei; it was all up to Xu Lei himself now.
He couldn’t just pull Xu Lei away now.
After all, the White Spot Spirit Monster on the county magistrate’s daughter hadn’t been completely expelled yet.
They couldn’t just give up halfway.
"Benefactress, a lady of your noble stature, why are you cooking for this humble monk again?"
Xu Lei added, "Amitabha Buddha. A sin, a sin.
Benefactress, I must state this plainly.
This monk is devoted to the Buddha and to Cultivation.
I do not consort with women, nor do I entertain thoughts of marriage."
"Little Divine Monk, what are you talking about?"
The county magistrate’s daughter widened her beautiful eyes and pouted. "Aren’t you a little full of yourself?
What, you think I’ve fallen for you just because you’ve been touching me for a few days?
Am I that kind of person?
I’m just trying to thank you!
Besides, I actually enjoy cooking!
Don’t overthink it! Eat up, while it’s hot!"
"Amitabha Buddha."
Xu Lei studied the young woman’s expression. "If that is the case, then thank you, Benefactress."
After he finished eating,
"I’m going to take a bath first, and then we can start expelling the Demon again,"
the young woman said, her pretty face slightly flushed. "Please wait a moment, Little Divine Monk."
Xu Lei nodded.
About half an hour later,
Xu Lei once again entered the young woman’s boudoir.
This time, the young woman’s pretty face was flushed, her hair was down, and she wore nothing but a single, transparent gauze wrap.
She emerged gracefully, a smile playing on her lips.
"Little Divine Monk, how about I dance for you today?"
The young woman said, "I learned a new dance. It’s very beautiful!"
"Amitabha Buddha."
Xu Lei pressed his palms together. "Benefactress, let us begin expelling the Demon.
In about three more days, this should be over.
Then, you will no longer have to endure this monk’s improper conduct.
As for what has occurred during the exorcism, I guarantee I will never speak of it.
No one will ever know."
"First, we dance!"
But the young woman insisted, "Watch closely!"
With that, she began to dance in the room like a sprite.
The light gauze fluttered, her black hair swayed.
Fair, jade-like legs, appearing and disappearing from view.
Perfectly rounded hips, swaying gently.
A graceful figure, half-hidden, half-revealed.
At some point, the gauze seemed to lose its grip, slowly starting to slide down her fair skin to the floor.
