How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

"Ah this..."

Hong Zhenjia was startled by the two's sudden performance. He turned to Hong Xiaochen and asked awkwardly, "Um, is Xiaoli's crying always this peculiar?"

"Uh, that's probably it...?"

Hong Xiaochen gasped. When was the last time she saw her daughter cry? Sixteen years ago?

"This is the sound of someone crying when they are heartbroken to the extreme!"

Hei Yang patted Hong Li's back sadly, then looked at the two adults: "To be honest, I also want to have a good cry like this, but I can't..."

[Black Sun: To be honest, I also want to roar, but no one's there to stop me!]

[Hongli: What the hell is this howl...?]

"did not expect……"

Hong Xiaochen shook his head helplessly and looked at Hong Zhenjia: "I didn't expect these two children to have such a good relationship..."

"You could have guessed it, couldn't you?"

Hong Zhenjia sighed: "After all, they grew up playing together since they were little, and everyone has seen that."

"Well, yes, yes!"

Hongli said in a trembling voice, "Childhood sweethearts!"

Hei Yang quickly replied, "Childhood sweethearts!"

"That's it..."

Hong Zhenjia sighed, "It's normal that Xiao Li doesn't want to go to the Five Elements Sect. Everyone knows that becoming an immortal is good, but it's hard to escape the word 'love'."

"That's right, that's right, that's exactly it!"

Hong Li cheered inwardly, finally guiding the plot in the direction she wanted. It was worth the great sacrifice she had made!

Hong Li coughed and gently pushed Hei Yang away, her expression grave. "I'm afraid that if I leave..."

Hei Yang quickly replied, "And then there was never another chance to meet..."

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! That's bad luck!"

Hongli interrupted Heiyang, saying, "What if Heiyang starts flirting with other girls again after I leave?"

[Black Sun: ?]

[Hongli: What are you wondering about? I was just making reasonable inferences about the conversation based on your personality!]

[Hei Yang: No, did you secretly change my persona? Did you suddenly make me a womanizer in your eyes?]

[Hongli: What? You have a problem with that?]

[Black Sun: Getting cocky again, huh!]

"That's right, I'm also afraid that Hongli will take a fancy to a handsome senior brother or a cute junior brother in the sect, and then fall for someone else!"

Hei Yang wailed, "You know, she's never had any self-control..."

"You slander!"

"I don't!"

"Want to fight?"

"Afraid of you, huh?"

"Uh……"

Seeing the two who were just feeling sad suddenly turn to risking their lives to die together, Hong Xiaochen smiled awkwardly and explained, "These two kids, well, they've been like this since they were little. They're not sick... uh, maybe they have a little something, but it hasn't been diagnosed yet..."

"Alright, I know everything!"

Hong Zhenjia sighed, "Seeing them reminds me of my youth, back then..."

Never mind, that's not important, I've made up my mind!

"What to decide?"

Hong Li flashed to Hong Zhen's side and said, "Uncle, have you decided not to let me go to the Five Elements Sect? I'm willing!"

"Oh, I'm so glad you're willing."

Hong Zhenjia looked at Hong Li with loving eyes: "I've decided that before you go to the Five Elements Temple, I'll try to discuss it with your father and the Hei family to get you two engaged as soon as possible, so that your feelings for each other won't fade!"

"?"

Hongli stumbled back several steps, almost falling over: "No, no, no, you might have misunderstood, what I meant was..."

"I know, girls are usually shy. I'll talk to the Hei family."

Hong Xiaochen smiled helplessly, her gaze towards Hei Yang now different: "Xiao Yang, you should take the initiative and let your family bring it up first. That way, they'll be more accepting... After all, I only have this one daughter..."

"Call, call what?"

Hei Yang's eyelids twitched.

[Black Sun: Was it... you know...?]

[Hongli: I overacted, waaaaaah, I'm really going to cry this time!]

[Black Sun: Calm down, calm down, there's still room for things to turn around!]

[Hongli: Then what do you suggest we do?]

[Heiyang: When in doubt, procrastination is the answer!]

"Um, uncles, have you forgotten something?"

Hei Yang coughed twice and pointed behind the two of them: "Brother Bu Tian is still unconscious. Compared to his safety, our matter is insignificant, isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, Hei Yang is right!"

Hong Li pointed at Hong Butian: "Brother Butian hasn't woken up yet, how can he focus his attention on the two of us? That's too much!"

"But in a few days, the people from the Five Elements Sect will be..."

"unimportant!"

Hei Yang said seriously, "Brother Bu Tian's safety is the most important thing!"

"That's right, that's right!"

Hongli nodded in agreement: "As long as Brother Butian hasn't woken up, no one can bring this up again!"

"Ah, Xiao Li, and Xiao Yang too..."

A weak voice suddenly came from behind. Hong Butian had opened his eyes at some point and gave a weak smile: "You've come to see me..."

Chapter 23 How can you laugh at your age!

"Ah, Xiaotian, you're awake!"

Hong Zhenjia excitedly grabbed Hong Butian's hand: "He's finally awake! He's finally awake!"

"dad……"

Hong Butian forced a smile: "And, Second Uncle..."

"Hey, everyone's here."

Hong Xiaochen replied, "What exactly happened? Please tell us."

"Hmm, it happened..."

Hong Butian frowned deeply: "I... I can't quite remember. I only remember that I went to the street that day and saw a gray herb... and then... and then I can't remember anything..."

"Gray herbs?"

Hong Zhenjia anxiously pressed, "What kind of gray herb is it? What exactly is going on?"

"Yes Yes……"

Hong Butian's face showed a pained expression: "No, it doesn't seem to be gray, it's ice blue... no, it's orange-yellow... that's not right either..."

"What color is it exactly? Tell me clearly, child!"

"No, no, I don't remember! I can't remember!"

"Think about it carefully..."

"Big brother..."

Hong Xiaochen pressed down on Hong Zhenjia's shoulder and shook his head: "Xiaotian just woke up, don't upset him anymore!"

"Oh, yes, yes!"

Hong Zhenjia realized what was happening and quickly stood up: "Xiao Tian, ​​you rest a little longer, we won't disturb you..."

"No, don't go!"

Hong Butian shouted urgently, "Don't go! It'll be dark soon if you leave!"

"What are you talking about? What do you mean by 'it's dark' or 'it's not dark'..."
