Endless Transmigration: These Shitty Lives are Killing Me

Chapter 206: The Truth About a Man Named Lin Feng (2)

--- Chapter 203 ---

One disciple submitted.

Two more.

After breaking ties between a teacher and a disciple, Baek Ain and Yao Ling'er found their current relationship somewhat ambiguous. The kiss they shared was only the beginning, after all.

[Wow, you even bagged your disciple] Alicia complimented him.

[Hmm, 100 Reincarnations made you mature in some way, huh?]

[I think you're becoming more comfortable with accepting women into your harem now, Host]

Baek Ain didn't agree or refute Alicia's words. He just stayed quiet as some of his 100 reincarnations replayed in his mind.

With Yao Ling'er on his hips, Baek Ain stared at his disciple's eyes and smiled. "Well, Ling'er. You might want to get off me for now. Your junior sister is coming here, and we don't want her to get the wrong first impression."

Yao Ling'er shyly nodded and slowly got off Baek Ain, allowing him to see a damp spot on her underwear. He chuckled inside because a few of his new skills are effective against the opposite gender when he's not even using them proactively.

As Yao Ling'er fixed her messy clothes, she glanced at Baek Ain's face and found him in a more flattering light. 'Damn it, why did the teacher have to be so handsome.' Yao Ling'er thought to herself.

Buried in her deep thoughts, Yao Ling'er didn't realize someone was entering the room. But Baek Ain did.

Huo Zhi entered the room with a calm expression, searching for her teacher.

Yet what greeted her was a blank-looking Yao Ling'er and a younger man with a handsome face and wet white hair.

She frowned, "What are you?"

"What have you done to my senior sister?"

Baek Ain raised his arms in defeat, "Calm down."

"Hear me out first."

"T-That voice... It can't be." Huo Zhi recognized Baek Ain's altered voice, just like Yao Ling'er did. Her eyes widened in shock because this young man couldn't be her teacher, right?

Of course, Huo Zhi comes to her conclusion.

She tried to rationalize this shocking event, thinking Baek Ain must experience a transformation and become younger in the process.

'Can someone change so much in just a night?' Huo Zhi gazed at Baek Ain's handsome face silently.

Baek Ain smiled and revealed his identity, making Huo Zhi's expression twist into horror.

"So, you're saying a man named Lin Feng, my teacher, is just a person you fabricated?" Huo Zhi took a deep and sharp breath, having her chest heaved up and down. "You only wanted the Ancient Clan's secrets and authority for your own..."

Baek Ain shrugged, "I genuinely like teaching you three."

"But yes, I did want Ancient Clans on my side."

"Our enemy is the Hall of Soul and Hun Clan."

"To gather all the superpowers, I have to use another identity and a bit of deceit."

Huo Zhi clenched her hand, "Why are you telling us this?"

"You just want to break our heart... You're a monster."

Baek Ain sighed, "Because I like you."

"Even if our time together is short, I developed an attachment beyond normal to you..."

"Yao Ling'er has accepted me as who I am."

"I only need an answer from you and Xun'er now."

Huo Zhi stared at Baek Ain, "You're not lying about that..."

"I am not."

"So you will take responsibility for your actions?"

"One hundred percent."

"Prove it!" Huo Zhi steeled herself.

Just like Yao Ling'er, she has developed feelings for Baek Ain.

Although to see him in a different light like this is world-shattering, Huo Zhi was far too deep into it.

Baek Ain stood up, startling Huo Zhi.

Huo Zhi might look like a brave heroine, but she is still a maiden. She's even shyer than Yao Ling'er, who boldly straddled Baek Ain and kissed him.

Huo Zhi's breathing had a sharp turn when she saw Baek Ain's towering figure before her. His handsome face and physique, complemented by his addictive smell, are impossible to resist.

As Huo Zhi took a closer look, she could see a faint resemblance between Baek Ain and her teacher's facial quality. It means he only changed his face to look worse.

'What a dummy...' Huo Zhi pursed her lips.

Baek Ain caressed Huo Zhi's oval face gently and kissed her like she was his lover. They ended up together in one of his reincarnations, but that life was pretty steep because the Hall of Souls dominated the Dou Qi Continent.

Even though Baek Ain is not 100% sure, Huo Zhi must have gone through that reincarnation's world. Their Unfinished Samsara is connected, after all.

And just like that, Huo Zhi melted into Baek Ain's embrace and touch.

"Okay, let's stop here." Baek AIn released her from his embrace.

"We can do more later, my little chocolate fairy."

"That nickname-!" Huo Zhi was still in the dreamy zone. However, the way Baek Ain called her made her awake right away.

Baek Ain didn't say much further and placed his finger on the lips. "That's a secret between us."

"Secret..." Huo Zhi dumbly nodded. She went to Yao Ling'er and similarly entered a deep thought.

...

Baek Ain waited for Gu Xun'er and closed his eyes.

Unlike Yao Ling'er and Huo Zhi, Gu Xun'er went through a complete mental breakdown.

From the moment Xiao Yan abandoned her, Gu Xun'er was already unstable. The Bodhisattva Ancient Tree's Trials and Xiao Yan's last encounter make her decision more firm.

Baek Ain expected Gu Xun'er to hate him to her very bones, but when she arrived, something surprising happened.

Gu Xun'er knocked on the door and entered when receiving Baek Ain's response.

She wore a very revealing blue-white dress and stood before Baek Ain calmly. She had this 'as expected' look on her face, which puzzled Baek Ain for a second.

"You don't look surprised?" Baek Ain asked with a smile.

Gu Xun'er stared at Baek Ain and smiled back, "I... From the moment we met with the Pill Tower's representative, I felt one of them looked familiar for some reason."

"I felt like I've seen her in Wu Tan City."

"I didn't think much of it at first, but your closeness with her gave me a clue already."

"Lan Rou is the Mitter Family's Shadow Guard, right?"

Baek Ain acknowledged it, "Yes. She was a Shadow Guard, but she's now my wife."

"Does that mean you know my real identity as well?"

Gu Xun'er nodded but shook her head a second later, "I had a hunch."

"You told me a story about your only family member left, Baek Ain."

"It doesn't make sense because I knew everything about Baek Ain before he left Wu Tan City. I asked my bodyguard at the time to find anything related to him."

"Yet years later... A mysterious yet godly alchemist appeared, taking me as his disciple, and claimed he had a younger brother with the same name. Too much coincidence, right? But I deny it!"

"Teacher Lin is someone I admire. A firm back that I can comfortably lean on. I don't want to wake up from my dream..." Gu Xun'er teared up a little.

Gu Xun'er wiped her tears and added, "After Bodhisattva Ancient Tree's Trials, I cried for two reasons."

"First, I realized Xiao Yan doesn't feel the same love I had for him."

"Second, an ugly truth about my teacher."

"In my Unfinished Samsara, I didn't end up with my teacher or Xiao Yan."

"I'm happily married to someone called Baek Ain. We lived our lives beautifully, breaking all the hardships together."

"Still, I denied it..."

"Upon getting out, You saved me from the Hall of Souls, just like you saved me from their dirty hands in the Unfinished Samsara." Gu Xun'er closed her eyes melancholy.

"Your hateful scream toward Hall of Souls, as if they had murdered your wife(me), is so unforgettable."

"But reality is reality, Unfinished Samsara is Unfinished Samsara, right?"

"That's why I wanted to confirm my feelings when Xiao Yan wished to talk with me. Only you, out of all people, have confidence in my decision like you have known me for so long..."

"Xiao Yan is scum, as I've learned." Gu Xun'er laughed bitterly.

"And Teacher Lin Feng is none other than Baek Ain."

"Now the question is..."

"What Am I to you?"

Baek Ain was quiet, listening to Gu Xun'er thoughtfully.

He wanted to open his mouth, but words stuck in his throat.

Gu Xun'er walked closer, and her eyes glimmered with hope, "What I Am To You, Baek Ain?"

"A random person? An acquaintance? A disciple?"

"...Or a lover?"

Baek Ain covered his face and sighed helplessly, "You're putting me in a tight spot..."

"Answer my question!"

"Both, I love you as a disciple and a lover!"

"Do you even love me?"

"Yes." Baek Ain uncovered his face and faced Gu Xun'er with a small smile.

"You don't even sugarcoat it..." Gu Xun'er blinked in awe.

"I don't need to." Baek Ain confidently returned.

Gu Xun'er punched Baek Ain's chest softly a few times before hugging him tightly. "I also love you..." She said with a low voice.

"So please, don't abandon me."

"I won't abandon you." Baek Ain hugged her back.

After that, they gazed at each other and kissed in silence.

Something inside Gu Xun'er broke, freeing her from all the trauma and bad memories.

And with that, Baek Ain's disciples finally learned about his identity and became part of his harem. They didn't lose their teacher because this is an upgrade.

[Harem Member +3]

[Good job, Host]

Baek Ain ignored Alicia's sarcastic remark and gazed at Yao Ling'er, Huo Zhi, and Gu Xun'er. "When we are alone... Feels free to call me Ain or husband, depending on your liking."

"But remember to call me Teacher in public."

"What are you afraid of, Ain?" Huo Zhi couldn't help but ask. "With your strength, no one should be able to fight you.."

Gu Xun'er also agreed with Huo Zhi, "Yeah, that's true..."

"Mm, teacher and student play in public... Ain, you're kinky." Yao Ling'er commented, making the two others blush a little.

Baek Ain gave Yao Ling'er a gentle karate chop and said, "I don't want the world to know my real me."

"I have many nicknames..."

"Golden Monarch, Blade God, 10th Tier Alchemist, and recently Spear God."

"The world should only know me through an alternative name like Lin Feng. It allowed us to travel around the world in peace..."

"Okay, we understand!" The three of them nodded.

"Hehe, Let's hide the husband's real identity. I don't want more ladies to fall in love with you, and we can enjoy our husband's handsome face for ourselves." Yao Ling'er grinned, feeling possessive over Baek Ain.

"You're a little confused about my reason, but okay..." Baek Ain returned awkwardly.

Huo Zhi and Gu Xun'er laughed, making the mood more pleasant.

"Wait, when we married you, what family name should we use? Lin or Baek?" They suddenly realized something important.

"Uh, let's talk about that later." Baek Ain replied with a sigh. "We have many things to do first."

"Starting from destroying the Hall of Souls."
