How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

The reason why he didn't dare to confess his feelings, or only dared to express them in a joking way, is actually just one reason: he was too embarrassed to speak up and was afraid of being rejected!

Even if Hei Yang likes her, he absolutely cannot let her continue to act so recklessly!

"Wake up, Hei Yang, don't become a fool with a love-struck mind!"

"Think about the inhuman torture you've been suffering lately, are you really willing to work for Hong Li for the rest of your life?!"

"I am willing!"

The three words slipped out involuntarily.

"Snapped!"

Hei Yang slapped himself on the mouth: "You're a simp, aren't you? Watch me smear you to death!"

"Clap clap clap!"

"Hmm, answer again, are you willing to let Hongli do whatever she wants like this!"

"I am willing!"

"Clap clap clap clap!"

"Say it again!"

"I………"

"Clap clap clap clap!"

"Say it again!"

"Clap clap clap clap!"

"Answer me again!"

"No, I don't want to!"

A flame of fighting spirit ignited in Hei Yang's eyes: "That's right, it's because I love her that I should urge her to cultivate diligently!"

This is simply my profound way of expressing love, and it's definitely not because of laziness or anything like that!

That's right, laziness is a bad habit, and I'll take the blame for it all!

Self-brainwashing successful!

Chapter 34 Hong Li: Excellent, hardworking, diligent, and humble!

"whispering sound."

In the quiet, secluded room, a soft hum came from Hong Li's mouth: "Heh, that guy Hei Yang definitely saw through my lie. Who knows what kind of strange scenarios he's conjuring up in his head!"

Based on Hong Li's understanding of Hei Yang, he was probably already searching her study for the so-called "secrets," and it was even very likely that he had already discovered the mechanism by the bed!

"I miscalculated."

Hongli sighed: "I was so focused on that part of the story I didn't finish watching that I forgot about that kind of thing."

If Hei Yang were to see those diaries, especially the ones he wrote as a child, and see all those childish things written in them...

"Aaaaaah, I can already picture myself being mercilessly mocked by Hei Yang!"

Let's imagine……

Oh my, Xiao Li is actually copying me by keeping a diary! How adorable!

Wow, how come someone's diary is full of my name? That's really puzzling.

"Aaaaaaah, that kind of thing absolutely cannot happen!"

Hong Li's pupils dilated in shock. She felt that if such a thing really happened, she would never be able to hold her head up in front of Hei Yang again!

"What am I going to do? What am I going to do! If Hei Yang asks about this later, how the hell am I going to answer without leaving a single flaw?!"

For some reason, Hongli felt her face getting hot. She quickly took a deep breath, her chest heaving up and down, trying to calm herself down.

"Calm down, you must calm down!"

Yes, we can't be so pessimistic. Let's look on the bright side. Maybe Hei Yang has accidentally been crushed to death by a falling bookcase?

Yeah, thinking about it that way makes things much easier... just kidding!

Hongli clutched her hair in despair: "So, it turns out, all I can do now is issue a warrant for his arrest and hire an assassin to kill him before Heiyang can laugh at me!"

Just as Hong Li was rambling incoherently, the specially made spirit stone embedded on the left side of the secret chamber door flickered a few times.

"Eh?"

Hongli tilted her head. Anyway, it seemed that someone outside was calling to the people in the secret room, which was why the spirit stone lamp was flashing.

It serves as a reminder without disturbing disciples who are at a crucial stage of their cultivation, making it a very humane design.

However, if you accidentally go astray while practicing your skills in a secluded room without being disturbed, resulting in a qi deviation and no one noticing in time...

Uh, that's your own fault, what does it have to do with the sect! (Indignantly)

Of course, there may be cultivation techniques that require complete darkness and cannot tolerate any light; in that case, special circumstances must be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

However, what does that have to do with Hong Li? She wasn't cultivating, so even if she set off firecrackers in the secret room, she couldn't possibly go into a demonic state!

"and many more……"

Hong Li frowned, realizing that things were not so simple: "Logically speaking, apart from the sect leader and master, even the elders in the sect have no right to disturb the disciples' cultivation without reason."

I'm not familiar with the sect leader. So what's outside right now is, uh..."

Hong Li stiffly turned her head, staring at the messy blanket, scattered books, and even food scraps and traces of milk on the side. Her pupils dilated in shock!

……

"Hmm? Is Xiao Li at a crucial stage in her cultivation...?"

Hongling frowned slightly, pondering whether to try again or wait a little longer, when the door to the secret room opened from the inside.

"Ah, haha, it really is you, Master."

Hongli looked at Hongling with an awkward smile: "Um, are you here for a visit?"

"He's talking nonsense again."

Hongling sighed, but then, after sensing Hongli's aura, she smiled with satisfaction: "Not bad, your cultivation has deepened a bit more. You really are a diligent and hardworking child."

"Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing."

Hongli mentally gave Heiyang a huge thumbs up, but on the surface she showed a humble smile: "Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!"

“You’re a good child in every way, except for three things.”

Hongling smiled and patted Hongli's head: "The first point is that you are too distant with me. I am both your master and family. Just call me aunt in private."

"Uh... sorry..."

Hongli looked embarrassed: "Because you said you held me when I was little or something, but I really don't remember it."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about; it's perfectly normal not to remember."

Hongling smiled and said, "A long time ago, I moved to the capital of Qiankun Kingdom with my family, so of course you don't remember me."

Five-Colored City is the birthplace of the Five-Colored Clan, but it is not where the Five-Colored Clan grew to its full strength.

Long ago, the young people of the five major families went out to make their way in the world one after another. With mutual support and hard work, they managed to carve out a place for themselves in the capital.

Gradually, the five major families shifted their focus away from Five Colors City, leaving only a small number of their clansmen to stay in their hometown.

As time passed and years changed, after Hei Yang and Hong Li's grandfather passed away, the family in the two cities rarely kept in touch.

The five-colored families in the capital have spread far and wide, unlike Hong Li and Hei Yang, whose families only have three or four members. There are sixteenth brothers and seventeenth brothers, and the relationships are extremely complicated.

However, the connection remains. If people from their hometown (Five Colors City) want to develop in the capital, they can still receive a lot of help from their family.

Hongling is one of the representatives who was born in Five Colors City and then went to the capital with her family.

Even the occasional disciple slots obtained in Five Colors City were actually secured for them by people from the capital who performed well in the Five Elements Sect.

Hongli had always regarded these "distant relatives" who had been taking care of them as myths since she was a child, but now that she had actually encountered them, she was at a loss as to how to deal with them.

Being too distant can give the impression of being impolite, but being too close will prevent people from becoming close even if they are not familiar with each other!

I can only get used to it slowly...

"what."

Hongli sighed inwardly and asked again, "Aunt...Aunt, what brings you here?"

"Well, the second drawback is that he is too modest."

Hongling didn't respond to Hongli's words at first, but instead combed Hongli's messy hair and smoothed out the wrinkles in Hongli's clothes: "The third shortcoming is that you are too engrossed in cultivation, which has led to you becoming somewhat unkempt."

Girls should pay attention to their appearance. This isn't like home; your parents aren't constantly watching you, but you still need to be self-disciplined and independent!

"Ah, yes, haha."

A thought flashed through Hong Li's mind: Humility and diligence, is this really describing me?

But then she remembered Hei Yang, who was suffering in his hometown far away, and she immediately knew: Yes, this is talking about me!
