How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

Hongli's eyes widened: "Hei, you actually took advantage of my vulnerability and did such a despicable and shameless thing..."

"You took the initiative."

"Such an elegant and romantic thing! Cough cough..."

Hong Li coughed twice, smiled somewhat awkwardly, and whispered to confirm, "It really was... me who took the initiative?"

"Ah, you used a terrifying grappling technique on me right away!"

Hei Yang looked terrified: "Although I resisted with all my might and would rather die than submit, I was ultimately no match for you, and you succeeded!"

"Grass!"

Hongli's face turned ugly: "Then won't I suffer a huge loss...?"

"Ah? What did you say?"

"Oh, it's nothing."

Hong Li shook her head, straightened her chest and raised her head, and said in a relaxed tone, "That's why I said it's no big deal at all. These are all tricks that I've already mastered!"

"Ah yes yes."

Hei Yang revealed his dead fish eyes: "Then Sister Hong Li, can you tell me why you held my other hand so tightly back then? Were you afraid something would happen to me?"

"Hahaha, well, hehehe, let's enjoy the melon!"

Hong Li revealed her crescent-shaped eyes and laughed insincerely as she stuffed watermelon into her mouth with a spoon: "Oh my, this watermelon is so sweet! Um, Hei Yang, do you usually spit out the seeds when you eat watermelon?"

"Ha, what a clumsy attempt at changing the subject."

"Don't talk while eating or sleeping!"

"Ah yes yes."

Hei Yang and Hong Li devoured a large watermelon, scooping out a thin layer of rind before wiping their mouths clean. They both took a deep breath and exclaimed, "Ha...ah...so refreshing!"

"so……"

Hei Yang whispered, "Are we just going to sneak a bite like this? Xiao Huo and the others are still outside."

"Ah, she'll ask if she wants some."

Hongli gave a thumbs up: "That's right, this is the child I raised. He's not shy at all, and he's lively and cheerful!"

"I'm afraid if she doesn't speak up, her mother won't even notice if she starves to death..."

"Impossible! That's pure slander!"

Hongli defended herself, saying, "According to the experts, flamingos as big as Xiao Huo usually start foraging for food on their own, but our Xiao Huo is still gnawing on the two of us!"

Which expert?

"Red Glass Expert!"

"Ah."

Hei Yang rolled his eyes at Hong Li, paused, and then nodded: "But to be fair, if we're going to live together in the future, shouldn't we prepare a separate bedroom for Xiao Huo, and then prepare another one..."

"what about me?"

Hongli pointed to herself: "And me?"

"what?"

Hei Yang tilted his head, looking confused: "What are you talking about? Of course you'll be sleeping in the same room and in the same bed with me!"

"Ah this!"

"how?"

Hei Yang looked at Hong Li with a dangerous expression: "What's your opinion?"

"Haha, no, of course not!"

Hongli decisively admitted defeat first, then looked up and exclaimed, "It's just a feeling, it's so wonderful! We'll be living together from now on, and it feels even more wonderful coming from your mouth. This is the legendary world for two!"

"Sometimes just the two of you..."

Hei Yang thought for a moment: "Wasn't it always just the two of us before, undisturbed?"

"That's different!"

Hongli emphasized, "It's our time together after we've officially become a couple!"

"Actually, I think..."

Hei Yang poured cold water on the idea without hesitation: "There really won't be much difference, because no matter how many plans we have, we'll both be too lazy to do them, and all the plans will be postponed indefinitely..."

Hongli: "!!!"

Damn it, it actually makes perfect sense!

"Ah... although, but..."

Hongli smiled sheepishly: "Just make a little arrangement for me, let me experience the sense of ceremony a little, and feel what's different..."

"You want a sense of ritual, right?"

Hei Yang gave him a deadpan look: "Alright, Brother Hei Yang will give you a sense of ceremony..."

Taking a deep breath, Hei Yang composed himself and revealed a look of disappointment: "My dear Hong Li, it's been several days since you last broke through your realm, and I haven't dared to rest like you!"

Now that you've eaten, drunk, and slept your fill, right? Then hurry up and start your serious cultivation. I'll be right here beside you, supervising you closely!

"Isn't this kind of romantic getaway for two so special?"

Hongli: "?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 199 Hong Li was enlightened by Hei Yang's words, and after much reflection, she devoted herself to cultivation!

"I didn't say..."

Hei Yang narrowed his eyes and urged Hong Li with dissatisfaction: "Hey, what's with all the question marks popping up above your head?"

"Hurry up and get to your practice right now!"

Hongli: "???"

"You're still using question marks? And even more?"

Hei Yang put his hand on Hong Li's shoulder: "What's wrong, Li Zi? You're not going to give Hei Yang any face?"

"No, no, you fucking, I fucking..."

Hongli clasped her hands together and said earnestly, "No, Heiyang, I beg you, please be a human being?"

"what?"

Hei Yang looked puzzled: "How am I no longer human?"

"Well, I'll say it again. We agreed that you'd advance from Foundation Establishment Level 3 to Level 6, and I'd advance from Level 7 to Level 9, but now you're only at Foundation Establishment Level 4..."

"so!"

Hei Yang placed his other hand on Hong Li's shoulder, turned her around, and looked directly at her with a serious expression: "Keep going! I'm with you!"

"no no……"

Hong Li was stunned for a moment, then waved her fist and shouted, "You're with me my ass!"

"Please, my dear brother..."

Hongli rubbed her temples, speechless. "I'm not completely free yet. I only have a month to be with you. After that, I have to go to the ruins. Can't you let me get some rest?"

"That's it!"

Hei Yang frowned and said, "So you're saying you're going to such a dangerous place in a month, that's why you should improve your strength as soon as possible!"

As the saying goes, "Even last-minute preparation can be effective." The more you train now, the safer you'll be when the time comes, and the more at ease your family will feel when they're waiting for you.

"Hey, you don't want to die in the ruins and make your family, Black Sun, heartbroken, do you?"

"Ah this..."

Hongli was so stunned by Heiyang's long speech that she couldn't speak for a moment. After a moment of stunned silence, her mind raced.

"Wait a minute, although what you're saying is a bit convoluted, it seems that 'Hei Yang's sadness and grief' is more important than 'Hong Li's death in battle,' but..."

Seeing Hei Yang's sincere and concerned expression, Hong Li's heart pounded, and she was moved. She nodded and said, "But what you said seems to make sense. Well, okay, you're right. Let's cultivate together this month!"

"What?!"

Hei Yang's eyes widened: "Cultivate together?"

"what?"

Hong Li tilted her head: "Isn't that right? This way it's more efficient. You said it would make me even stronger."

"Ahem, well, cultivation also requires a balance of work and rest to achieve maximum efficiency..."

Black Sun's eyes gleamed: "Well, let's divide the work. You'll be in charge of the labor, I'll be in charge of the leisure, and then you can cultivate on your own..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"
