How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

"You even asked me what I needed... You stood me up, and you really put us in a terrible situation."

Hongli glanced at the wind and snow outside the pavilion, sighed, and looked at Hongling, who was covered in dust, with a puzzled look in her eyes.

"Speaking of which, Aunt, how did you get into this state?"

Elder Huo only said you had something to do, but didn't say what you went to do...

"Hmm, judging from your appearance, were you sold off by the elders to work in the coal mines?"

"Hey, what are you talking about? You're the one who went to dig coal!"

Hongling said speechlessly, "I've already said that our Five Elements Sect is not a human trafficking gang, nor is it a black market broker, and Elder Huo is not a lawless madman!"

If that's the case, then you're still a criminal leader!

"Tch, I'll just deny it later."

Hong Li casually spouted nonsense: "So, what exactly did you guys go to do? At least let me die knowing why!"

I was so heartbroken that I cut off the communication before the elder finished speaking, and I'm still in a daze!

"Uh...it's actually quite simple."

After spending nearly a year with Hongli, Hongling has learned to explain things to Hongli in a way that Hongli can understand.

"Airship, me and Xingyun, I sleep, Xingyun controls, Southeast region."

"Elder Tu, earthquake, disaster victims, airships, transportation, understand?"

"I see!"

Hong Li suddenly realized, and Hei Yang beside her understood as well.

So, Aunt Hongling, you're doing disaster relief work?

Hei Yang was filled with respect and quickly said, "Then you should go ahead and get busy. Our little bit of hardship is nothing. We can wait a bit!"

"Mmm, don't worry, I'll be right away... Wait, where's Xiaoyang's voice coming from?"

Hongling's lips twitched as she looked at the angle of Hongli in the camera lens.

"Um, Xiaoli, what are you doing now..."

"uh-huh."

Hongli zoomed out to include Heiyang in the shot, shifted her body slightly, and said with a grin, "That's right, that's right, I'm currently resting my head on my Heiyang's lap, man!"

Ah, my boyfriend's legs are so comfortable to rest my head on, don't you think, Auntie? Hehehe.

Hongling: "..."

Hongling: "Don't worry, I'll try to stay here as long as possible."

Hongli: "???"

Hongli: "!!!"

Hongli: "No, Auntie, I was wrong, Auntie, I..."

The connection was lost.

"Oh ho, it's over."

Hei Yang looked at Hong Li, who was holding the communication spirit stone blankly, sighed, put the communication spirit stone away, helped Hong Li lower her arm, and closed her eyes so that she could close them peacefully.

"Serves you right for being so cheeky, now you're getting your comeuppance!"

"Oh no... Waaaaah... How could this happen?!"

Hongli pouted and argued, "My aunt is an elder, how could she hold a grudge against a child like me!"

"Ah yes yes."

Hei Yang rolled his eyes: "You know your aunt is an elder!"

"Hmm... okay..."

Hongli sighed, reached out and grabbed one of Heiyang's arms, using it as a pillow to hug him.

"You're so kind, no matter what I say, you never get angry with me..."

"Don't be so mean."

Hei Yang clicked his tongue: "I was just using the energy I had to be angry to get revenge on you."

"Heh, you think you're getting revenge on me, but you're actually giving me a treat!"

Hongli opened her eyes and smiled: "I can sense it. You have absolutely no temper with me."

"Oh, whatever you say."

Hei Yang pursed his lips: "Let's think about something practical. How should we spend the next few days?"

So, you mean we're just going to stay here for the next few days and do absolutely nothing?

"Let's talk about that later..."

Hongli closed her eyes, chuckled softly, and yawned, saying, "I'm a little sleepy now, so Old Yang, you can offer your legs and arms so I can use them as pillows and hug you to take a nap. We'll talk again when I wake up."

After a pause, Hongli seemed to remember something and warned.

"Oh, and by the way, don't do anything weird while I'm sleeping!"

"uh-huh?"

Hei Yang raised an eyebrow but didn't answer: "What can you do to me if I do it? Snitch on me?"

"Come on, I was just trying to scare you. When did I ever tattle on you?"

Hongli snorted and muttered under her breath, "If you do it, I'll... I'll..."

"What about you?"

"I'll forgive you then."

"That's more like it. Sleep well and have sweet dreams."

"Sweet dreams."

Hong Li nodded gently: "Let's see if I can dream about you. If I do, I'll give you a good scolding..."

"..."

Watching the girl fall asleep unguarded in his arms, Hei Yang wore a faint smile and simply gazed at her quietly, never tiring of the sight.

He thought of how he had cried in the girl's arms before, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. After crying like that, he had truly and completely moved on from the shadow of his past life.

Then, you can devote more energy to loving the girl in your arms.

There are many places to shelter from the wind and rain, but not all places that provide shelter from the wind and rain can be called home.

If they had to say, for them, each other's embrace was the most secure home.

They sleep in each other's arms, shedding their pretenses, crying and screaming, indulging in their own whims.

The days without this chapter are incredibly lonely (>﹏<)

So, does a chapter of 6,000 words seem less than two chapters of 3,000 words, or three chapters of 2,000 words...?

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 244 Human desires are endless. If you slack off for five minutes, you'll slack off for another ten minutes!

On the gray earth, Hongli walked slowly.

"It's so strange, is this really my dream?"

Hong Li looked around in confusion. Her powerful spiritual perception as a Golden Core cultivator allowed her to be certain that she was dreaming, and she could even vaguely sense the sleeping body outside.

But what if this is her dream...?

"Why is it all gray and there's nothing there?"

Hongli looked around at the environment, which seemed to be in a state of "image rendering failure" and "image material loss," and was full of displeasure.

"Even if you don't dream of swarms of black suns or anything like that, it should at least be a pool of milk and a forest of flesh, blue sky and white clouds or something like that, right?"

Has my imagination become so barren that it's practically a wasteland?

Hongli couldn't help but shudder and quickly shook her head.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could my fascinating soul possibly let my imagination dry up!"
