Hearing the pleasant female voice, Rayne tensed up a bit, subconsciously feeling a bit nervous.
He walked to the door and opened it.
What came into his view was a beautiful mature woman in white and blue robes.
The beautiful woman appeared to be in her early thirties, at least appearance vice.
She had stunning facial features, and elegant and slender body posture. Her dark blue long hair flowing down till her waist. She had slim waist, plump buttocks and fairly big breasts.
Her face was somewhat pale and tired, as if suffering from some sort of illness. But her expression was full of happiness and excitement at the moment.
"Rayne~!!"
Seeing Rayne, the woman immediately rushed towards him and took him into her arms.
"Rayne! Rayne!"
She hugged him tightly so much, his face was covered by her bosom.
"Have you been well so far? I missed you so much! My baby boy, Rayne~!"
Rayne lightly tapped her and struggled out from her breasts.
"Wel… welcome back, mom…"
Rayne said breathlessly, feeling helpless at the woman's enthusiasm towards him.
Yes, this beautiful woman is Rayne's mother in this life, Shui Xin'er.
Seeing her rubbing his head and hugging like this, Rayne truly felt a bit helpless.
Of all the mothers he had in all of his lives, only Shui Xin'er has such an obvious overly doting side displayed.
As gratifying and flattering it is for him, Shui Xin'er would do anything, if it's for his well-being.
Her affection for him has reached the level of obsession.
To this day, Rayne has no idea why she has such immense love for him.
…
After Shui Xin'er calmed down a bit from her excitement, she noticed a lot of differences in Rayne compared to before.
Rayne now looked much better in appearance. His handsome face, silver white hair and vibrant blue eyes can make any woman fascinated, if his age was appropriate that is.
Surprisingly, she didn't assume that Yu Xiaogang was responsible for this. Rayne guessed that she must have heard about Yu Xiaogang's matters on the way here.
"Rayne, what happened to you? You look very different now. Not that I don't like it, since my baby boy is so healthy now."
To this, Rayne said.
"Mother, my other two martial souls awakened, bringing me a lot of power up."
Shui Xin'er was shocked, then happy.
"Three martial souls?! My Rayne is so amazing~!"
She hugged him again and kept kissing his face. Rayne was truly helpless.
But then, when he thought about the plans he made for the future, he became solemn.
In his third life in douluo world, he kept most of his previous life memories and cheats a secret, as he worried about losing his mother's genuine love.
Even though he is a reincarnation, not a transmigration… he still feared that he might be rejected by this woman who loves him so much.
Because of this, he couldn't really help his family and close ones become stronger, from the start. Thus losing potential game-changing allies.
Although Rayne in this life has full memories and bloodline, and can't be compared to his weaker previous self.
He still intends on helping his loved ones become as strong as possible, even if there aren't any obvious threats to him in this life.
Before Rayne could think further, Shui Xin'er held him in her arms and said.
"Rayne, how about I help you find a teacher? Mom has a friend who has multiple martial souls like you."
"Are you talking about Bibi Dong, mom?"
"How did you know?! Bad boy, don't call her name directly like that in public. She is a person with a very high status. It's very disrespectful to call her directly by her name."
Shui Xin'er pinched his cheeks and stretched them lightly, while teasingly reprimanding him.
Rayne once again felt a sort of helplessness. As if seeing an interesting expression from Rayne, Shui Xin'er smiled happily.
She once again started to hug and kiss him rather aggressively.
Rayne has wondered many times if his mother has a condition similar to cuteness aggression.
After separating himself from his overly clingy mother, Rayne said.
"Mother, there is no need to bother with Bibi Dong or Spirit Hall. I know how to cultivate all of my martial souls better than anyone in the world."
Shui Xin'er didn't take his words seriously, and tried to persuade him, since it concerns her son's future.
"Rayne, you don't understand how dangerous multiple martial spirits are. In the past, there was a twin martial soul possessor who exploded because of incorrect way of cultivation. In the entire continent, Bibi Dong is the only person who knows how to properly cultivate twin martial souls. She is also the only successful one in the known history."
"…"
Seeing her like this, Rayne knew that, if he didn't give her a proper and valid reason, he will be taken to Spirit Hall and be apprenticed to Bibi Dong, just like in his third life.
"Mother."
"Hm? What is it, Rayne?"
Shui Xin'er curiously asked after hearing Rayne's call.
Rayne silently took a deep breath, then slowly said.
"Actually, I've awakened the memories of my past lives."
"…"
The room was silent.
Shui Xin'er was silent and confused. All the words she wanted to say was stuck in her throat.
Rayne continued with a solemn expression.
"One of my martial souls, Kāma, has the power of reincarnation."
"Kāma?! The mysterious martial soul of the legendary God of Contracts?!"
Shui Xin'er looked shocked after hearing the name 'Kāma'.
"God of Contracts… that is also one of my past lives."
Shui Xin'er suddenly grabbed his shoulders and shook him nervously.
"Rayne, don't joke around! What you are saying is a great disrespect to the God of Contracts…"
"Mom, do you know the actual name of God of Contracts?"
Rayne suddenly asked.
Shui Xin'er was startled. Then, as she wanted to reply to Rayne, a name appeared in her mind as the answer, making her shocked and speechless.
She stutteringly said.
"Ra… Rayne Ashburn…!"
As she said that, she felt shocked and even a bit fearful.
She began to think. Why did she name her son the same name as the God of Contracts? When she tried hard to remember the reason, she found out that, there was...none?
"That's right, mom. Rayne Ashburn. I've lived with this name for three lifetimes, and this is my fourth lifetime with this name."
"…"
"Of course, I've also lived a lifetime with a different name. My second life."
"…"
Rayne suddenly looked into the shocked and fearful eyes of Shui Xin'er, and said something that shocked her to her bone.
"Mom. Actually, I've already lived this lifetime with you once, and was reincarnated into the past."
"What?! Rayne, please stop…"
Rayne then explained how the reincarnation ability of his Kāma seal works.
"In my previous life, I became a disciple of Bibi Dong just like you asked me to do. The only difference was, I didn't have any of my past life memories, except for my first ordinary life and some memories of soul guides and alchemy."
"In fact, my other martial soul, Six Eyes wasn't even fully activated, my bloodline was also almost completely sealed."
"And, because I feared of some bad possibilities, I also didn't reveal anything about my past memories to you and sister. I've been so secretive, like a damn thief."
Rayne said sarcastically. Although, this sarcasm was pointed at himself.
"Rayne…"
"But as they say, trouble always finds its way to the strong."
"Even with all the limitations, I was still the strongest after a certain period. And because I was too strong, I attracted the malice of many people. In turn, mom and sister as my family was also put into limelight. I wanted to make the world a better place for my loved ones, but I couldn't."
"Rayne…"
Shui Xin'er looked at Rayne with some worry and concern. But she didn't stop him from speaking anymore. She also understood that, she needed to properly listen to her son's confession.
"Don't look so worried, mom. I'm the strongest. I never allowed any danger to fall onto you and sister."
"But, there are many people in this world and even divine realm, that won't let me do what I want."
"No matter how strong I am, I'm just one person, and have realised my limits in certain things. In terms of combat power and technology, I'm the best there is. But the world cannot be changed by one person."
"In my previous life, I was affiliated with Spirit Hall. But they didn't agree with my ideal, or rather, reasons. At the end of the day, my ideal world got in the way of their interests."
"Mostly because the Qian family wouldn't agree because the Angel God, or that bastard pretending to be Angel God's will, disagrees with my ideals."
"So, in this life, I have no intention of joining any existing forces. Mom, please help me out in this life."
"And… I don't know if you'll believe me, mom. I'm not someone who possessed this body. But am truly your son."
Rayne softly said as he bowed his head to her, with his eyes closed.
Shui Xin'er didn't know, but Rayne had never bowed his head to anyone in all of his lifetimes, except for his original life's mother.
Shui Xin'er was silent for some time, then looked at Rayne with a complicated expression.
She hugged him into her bosom and softly caressed his hair.
"I believe you, Rayne. You are definitely my baby boy."
"…!!" Rayne.
"You don't know this, Rayne. But while I was pregnant with you, I was attacked by a dark spirit master. The evil energy greatly damaged me and I was almost killed. And the fetus, which is you, should have been destroyed."
"…" Rayne.
"But miraculously, the fetus was only slightly affected. And I was also saved because of some unknown healing power that came from the fetus."
Shui Xin'er looked at Rayne with gentle and tearful eyes. She hugged him tightly.
"I always regarded that incident as a miracle from God. But now I know that it was you."
"Back then, I thought of everything as bad luck. I had a lot of goals I wanted to achieve. A future that I had planned for myself. Why I had to sacrifice my happiness for my family? Why I had to be with a man despite me having no feelings for him? Why my clan's fate can be controlled by others so easily? I was forced to be with your father, just because of a word from the Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall."
"Whatever plans I had for the future was gone. It was as if my life had lost all the colors."
"At that time, I didn't have any interest in anything anymore. Even, I didn't care much about my first child, your sister as well. I even felt that it was better to just die that live like a puppet."
"Back then, I should've definitely died under the attack of that dark spirit master. But, the miraculous burst of power from the fetus, which was you, saved me. At the same time, it awakened something within me, that I seemed to have lost."
"The meaning of life, the will to live for the future."
She got close to Rayne's face, so close that their foreheads touched. Her beautiful icy blue eyes looked at his vibrant blue eyes. Her fragrant breath striking his handsome face.
She softly said in the most gentle voice.
"You are the one who taught me the meaning of life and gave me a new chance at life."
"Rayne, no matter who you were in your past lives, I only know that you are my dearest son that I love."
