Hu Xiaotian finally understood what it truly meant for the world to be ever-changing. In this world, those you saw as friends were not necessarily friends, and enemies were not necessarily enemies. When he first arrived here, he had hoped to coast comfortably through life, marry a few lovely wives and beautiful concubines, have a brood of adorable children, and enjoy flowers beneath the moon in blissful harmony. Reality, however, had forced him to abandon that idea. Even living life over from the beginning was no easy thing. He now had lovely wives and beautiful concubines-indeed, he could be said to have exceeded all expectations in both quantity and quality-but however tirelessly he plowed, he had yet to produce a single child. That was undeniably a regret. Ever since meeting Old Madam Xu and learning about the Seeds of Fire from her, he had known that Hu Buwei and Xu Fengyi, being Seeds of Fire themselves, were incapable of reproduction. He was merely a Seed of Fire that Old Madam Xu had implanted in Xu Fengyi to conceal the truth. Perhaps, as Old Madam Xu had said, all the Seeds of Fire had lost their reproductive ability through some unknown circumstance during the long process of transmigration.
Although he differed from the other Seeds of Fire in retaining the memories and consciousness of his previous life, this body had still come from a fertilized egg brought here by the Time-Space Leap Team. Physiologically, there could be no exception. Whenever he thought of this, Hu Xiaotian grew disheartened. It seemed that in this life he could only make thunder without bringing rain. Perhaps he ought to consider adopting children before long. Having so many beautiful wives by his side yet being unable to swell their bellies was another regret.
