How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

Page 3

Pull up the blanket and sleep soundly!

……

"Xiaoyang, what time is it? Get up already!"

"Hey Mom, I'm sixteen years old now. Please don't barge into my room all the time. It makes me feel very unsafe!"

"And the rooster hasn't even crowed yet, and you're already telling me to get up?"

"The rooster has run off somewhere; maybe those little kids who catch spirit chickens caught it by mistake."

Besides, if I don't come, if I don't come, do you just want to stay in bed all day?!

"Uh, it might be more than a day."

"Stop being silly and get up to practice your sword!"

Look at you, and look at your cousin from your uncle's family. She's already at the seventh level of Body Tempering!

I don't expect you to catch up with your cousin who joined the Five Elements Immortal Sect, but you should compete with your older cousin!

"What's there to argue about..."

"Don't compete? If you don't compete, others will. They'll become disciples of immortals, soaring through the heavens and escaping the earth, turning stones into gold."

And you? A handful of dust a hundred years from now?

Under his mother's high expectations for him, Hei Yang was reluctantly pulled out of bed, grabbed his wooden sword for practice, and pushed open the door.

"Shhhhh!"

A biting north wind swept in, instantly energizing Hei Yang: "Mom! You didn't say it snowed last night! Look, it's still snowing, how am I supposed to practice my sword!"

"You locked the door as soon as you got back to your room yesterday. Who was capable of going in to tell you it was snowing?"

"Didn't you see your father hasn't come back? He's stayed at the city lord's mansion."

"Even if I lock the door, you can still open it, right?"

"Oh my, I'm just giving my son a sense of security!"

"Mom, stop being sarcastic..."

Hei Yang sighed and unleashed the sword techniques that were etched into his DNA. Though called sword techniques, they were actually just the most basic slashing and chopping moves.

I've been building a solid foundation for over a decade, and as my mom would say, it's all about "rain or shine"!

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 3: Those who practice martial arts are in excellent physical condition!

The servants at home were diligently sweeping snow in the yard, while in the other courtyard, the children of the same clan were playing happily. Hei Yang only found it noisy.

My mom is planning something again, scribbling and drawing on paper and pen.

My mother's full name is Qing Yiyi. She was originally the second young lady of the Qing family in Five Colors City, and naturally she received a good education from a young age.

Five-Colored City is only so big, yet it is crammed with five major clans. Although they are called major clans, apart from the direct descendants who still live close together, the other illegitimate descendants have long since dispersed and left Five-Colored City.

Anyway, people don't get close to each other after a generation, and they become strangers. Their surnames might even change, so there's not much to it.

However, the direct descendants of these five-colored families still value the so-called "matching social status" and various marriage alliances made Hei Yang exclaim that their thinking was outdated!

Are you guys playing a matching game here?

Don't you understand free love?

Is the cultivation world also in such a sorry state?

Later, Hei Yang learned that only mortals acted this way...

Lost in thought, Hei Yang unconsciously chopped at the falling snowflakes to pass the time.

He just looked gloomy and had dead fish eyes the whole time. He's a pretty handsome young man, but he looked like someone from the underworld...

"I'm so tired, I want to slack off, I want to be lazy, I want to..."

Snowflakes hit my face, melted, and felt icy cold.

Although Hei Yangren had emerged, his soul was still lingering in bed: "I wonder what Hong Li is doing in this freezing weather..."

Knowing her as I do, she's probably still in bed... Waaah, I'm so jealous!

Hongjia.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

In the snow-covered courtyard, Hongli held a red-tasseled spear and poked at the snowflakes in a fit of frustration: "Ahhhhh, I haven't slept enough, I haven't slept enough, I want to be lazy, I want to be lazy!"

I wonder what that scoundrel Hei Yang is doing; he definitely hasn't gotten out of bed yet! Damn it!

……

"But then again..."

Hei Yang brandished his longsword in the snow, a puzzled expression on his face: "Why does sword practice feel so easy today? It's like... I feel like I'm improving at lightning speed!"

"How should I put it? Could it be that I am actually a legendary martial arts prodigy, but this talent only awakened after sixteen years?"

Hei Yang nodded to himself, answering his own question: "Indeed, if these words hadn't popped up in front of me, I would have really believed it."

Congratulations on receiving the "Lazy Dog/Slacker Rescuer" sponsored by the "Loving and Caring Alliance"!

The Lazy Dog/Slacker Rescuer allows you and another bound user to share the same cultivation progress, working together and encouraging each other to improve!

Your bound partner is: Hong Li

[Your bound master's "Red Clan Spear Technique" has reached minor mastery; your Red Clan Spear Technique has been upgraded to minor mastery.]

[Your bound character wielded a spear once, and you gained one spear-wielding practice experience.]

【…】

"Ah this..."

Hei Yang stared blankly at the barrage of messages that suddenly flashed across his screen: "Stop, stop, stop! You're blinding me!"

[Do you want to enable simplified mode? If enabled, minor progress will be recorded in the background without notification.]

"Open, open, open!"

In an instant, Hei Yang's vision cleared, and he could see the beautiful world again: "Your cheat code suddenly popped out and startled me."

However, this red glass...

Ah, could this be the guy I'm thinking of...?

On the other side, the Hong family.

[Your bound skill "Black Clan Sword Technique" has reached minor mastery; your Black Clan Sword Technique has been upgraded to minor mastery.]

"Ah this..."

Hong Li blinked, then blinked again; the divine connection had come so suddenly.

However, is being bound to someone by Hei really a predestined connection?

Hongli fell into deep thought: "No, we can't be sure if this Yang is the same Yang yet. What if they have the same name and both know the Black Clan Sword Technique... No way! No, could it really be him!"

[Your bound companion is not in combat or training mode. Do you wish to send a friendly message to encourage them to progress together?]

"Oh, does this mean I can still message him?"

Just as Hongli was reacting, a line of information suddenly popped up in front of her.

[Black Sun: ?]

[Hongli: ?]

[Black Sun: No way...]

[Hongli: Don't tell me it really is you...]

[Black Sun: This must be a coincidence!]

[Hongli: Indeed, it must just be someone with the same name!]

[Black Sun: ...]

Hongli: ...

[Black Sun: Let's meet up.]
