Chapter 333 – An Open Ended Discussion (2/2)
“Why are you so muddleheaded? They both will slowly age and several decades later, they will even die. What are you going to do about it?”
Being blinded with joy, Lei Yu didn’t even think of this matter. Only after being reminded by Telephassa did he come to a realization. “I think if we have them start cultivating right now, it might be a bit too late. And it’s unrealistic to forcefully inject internal energy into them like what happened to Ai Er, right?”
“I cultivated the devil’s path because of you and have paid the most difficult price for a woman. You should know this right?” Telephassa tenderly asked.
Lei Yu nodded with a frown, “What you want to say is to have them two cultivate the devil’s path as well?”
“That’s what I was thinking. It was them two that brought it up to me and it seemed like they were very resolute in their decision. That’s why I wanted to discuss this matter with you.”
Lei Yu was deep in thought for a while before saying: “I’m afraid they’ll regret their decision in the future. You should know that in the Mortal World, how tragic it is if an old couple dies without any offspring sending them off. And for someone to have such a long life, eventually it would become even more painful in the future.” Speaking to this point, Lei Yu couldn’t help feel some pain in his heart as he thought about his own father. He recalled the longing gaze of his father of wanting him to return to the family and the disappointed look each time he would leave. When it came to his brother of a different mother, he was never in Tenglong country so Lei Yu had no feelings towards him at all. Without him and his brother and only his own clan members, Lei Yu could see how lonely his father would feel.
“What’s going on?” Seeing Lei Yu’s face filled with sadness, Telephassa gently caressed his cheeks and asked with concern.
With a light smile, Lei Yu replied: “I was thinking of my father. If I can return to the Mortal World, I believe I will forget all the previous matters I had with the clan and at least call him father one more time.”
Telephassa nodded, “I believe you will be capable of taking care of everything.”
After a long sigh, Lei Yu felt fortunate that all his women were so understanding. “Regarding Ying Ying and Nami cultivating the devil’s path, let’s not decide on it yet okay? It’s never too late once they decide to traverse that path. Even if they become old and not pretty anymore, I still won’t despise them. Can we wait until I take care of my matters first?”
“You are always unwilling to tell me what matter you have to take care of while their situation cannot be delayed continuously. You must keep this discussion at the forefront, okay?”
After pinching Telephassa’s chin, Lei Yu lightly smiled: “Don’t worry, I understand.”
Lei Yu lay down on the big soft bed before thinking carefully through each matter he had to do. Telephassa had left the room to tell Cui Ying Ying and Nami about Lei Yu’s thoughts.
The reason Lei Yu couldn’t make up his mind wasn’t because of Cui Ying Ying and Nami cultivating the devil’s path. The real reason was Lei Yu wasn’t sure if he could accomplish the Devil King’s request and he had no clue how dangerous it was. If he actually dies in the process, then it’ll mean the emotional support of the four women will have disappeared. Lei Yu has never been selfish and has always thought of others before himself, that’s why he couldn’t come to a decision with this matter.

“What did he say?” Seeing Telephassa come out, Cui Ying Ying dragged Nami over and anxiously asked. The thing Nami and her were afraid of the most was Lei Yu minding that they wouldn’t be able to have babies.
“Little Yu said he needs to think it over and it’s not because of the baby issue. Give him some time. As one of his lovers, you two must have faith in his ability in solving issues, okay?” Telephassa was over a thousand years older than them so what she said, Cui Ying Ying and Nami would nod in agreement.
