[Hong Li: Ha, don't give me that. Only a complete novice would get tricked by using underhanded tactics in a fight. If you try to fight me with random moves, believe me, I'll chop your claws off!]

[Hei Yang: Oh dear, don't be so cruel! Xiao Li, how can you bear to do this?!]

[Hongli: Hmph, what's there to be reluctant about? Even if your claws get chopped off, they'll just grow back!]

[Kurosun: Does it hurt?]

[Hongli: It's okay, it'll only hurt for a little while, just bear with it~]

[Black Sun: ???]

[Heiyang: That sounds so familiar!]

[Hongli: Ha! Men!]

[Black Sun: I surrender! I was wrong! I'm sorry, Lady Little Li!]

[Hong Li: Hmph, good to know!]

While Hei Yang and Hong Li were whispering amongst themselves, the four adults finally broke their silence and nodded in agreement.

"I think there's no problem."

Hong Xiaochen looked at his daughter and son-in-law seriously and said in a steady voice, "Your plan is very comprehensive. It can be said that it takes into account almost all possible situations, which is commendable."

As for the profound issues of spiritual practice, none of us understand them, and we can't offer you any effective advice. Since you've made up your minds, then go for it!

You don't need to worry about things at home. We're perfectly capable of taking care of ourselves.

"If anything happens, contact Elder Huo Le and the others from the Five Elements Sect. Don't try to fight it head-on!"

Hongli earnestly reminded us, "Even when we're outside, we still have ways to communicate with our families. If you're unsure about something, you can tell us when we call."

Although I may not be able to help directly at the time, there are some things I can still do even through video calls.

“We understand. Your dad and I have never been the type to try to be strong. Don’t worry, we’ll definitely find someone to help if anything happens.”

Lan Yuying smiled and shook her head, gently stood up, walked to Hong Li's side, hugged the child, and whispered, "Remember to bring plenty of food and drinks, as well as clothes. I don't know how cold it will be outside. Use your storage items to bring several boxes. Don't deprive yourself even when you're traveling..."

No, it should be said that the more you travel, the more you should learn to take care of yourself, and not be too willful. Try to do things together with Xiaoyang as much as possible, and be sure to discuss things with Xiaoyang..."

"I know, I know, I'm super obedient, I won't be willful!"

Hongli hugged her mother, pouted, and whispered, "When we go out, we'll wear ten storage rings on our wrists, ten on our ankles, and a storage bag around our waists..."

"puff."

Lan Yuying was amused by her daughter's words. She shook her head, reluctantly loosened her grip on her arm, took a few steps back, and looked at the graceful girl who was also looking at her. The two smiled at each other.

On the other side, Hei Yang was talking to his father, Hei Muguang. Unlike Hong Li and her mother, Hei Yang did most of the talking while Hei Muguang listened attentively, nodding occasionally.

"I recently reforged the bronze snake with better materials, and it's now about the strength of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. It should be enough to guard the house normally, but don't touch it when it's hot, it'll burn your hands."

"Oh, I see."

"Little Fire may shed some feathers in a while, but don't worry, it's a normal growth phenomenon."

"Yes, I understand."

"Before we leave, Xiaoli and I will do a safety test on the two supernatural avatars we leave behind. At first glance, they look like black shadows. If they dissipate, there's no need to worry about them; it just means the supernatural power failed to take effect. If they don't dissipate and you see them, don't panic. Don't mistake it for a burglar breaking into your house..."

"Okay, I heard you."

"Also, the magic array in the house has recorded your information, so you won't need to look for keys or anything when you come over. I've told you before, it's to the right of the pear tree in the backyard..."

You can take Little Fire there; she knows what to do. There's a sloth that's always sleeping there. Just leave it alone while it's sleeping, and don't worry about it when it's awake either. It'll just roll over and go back to sleep. The pool there is made with specially transplanted spiritual water...

"If the two of us haven't come back by the time those little peaches on the tree are fully ripe, you guys can pick them and cut them up to eat. Don't take big bites, and it's best to eat them right there in that little space. Don't worry about the pits, just leave them by the roots of the tree..."

"I understand, I've remembered it all."

"Oh, and also, the chess pieces from the previous chessboard, and that cup that could be repaired after being broken..."

"I know, I remember."

"Oh, and also, the cabinet at the very back of Xiaoli's study that's only half full of books, there's something we left underneath after we moved it..."

"Okay, I understand."

"Oh, right, what if there are special circumstances, such as..."

"Yeah, okay."

"Also, those photo frames on the west wall, arranged side by side from left to right in the order they were taken, can be activated..."

"Okay, I understand that too."

"besides……"

"Ah."

"in addition……"

"it is good."

"..."

"..."

Hei Yang explained each point carefully and meticulously.

Hei Muguang carefully and meticulously recorded each item.

Until Hei Yang finally stopped explaining.

Looking at his son, who was now almost as tall as him, Hei Muguang asked, "Is there any more?"

"besides……"

Hei Yang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "No, that's all."

"rest assured."

Hei Muguang patted his son on the shoulder, then pointed to his own head and laughed, "You've memorized it all!"

"Yes, it's okay if you forget. We can still contact you."

Hei Yang nodded emphatically, turned to look at his mother Qing Yiyi, and before he could speak, he was hugged.

Qing Yiyi hugged her son tightly, then pulled her daughter-in-law over, putting her arms around both of them. In a seemingly unreasonable tone, she said forcefully, "I don't care about any protective shields or worlds. I just want you two to come back safe and sound. Don't you dare disobey me!"

"Yiyi..."

Lan Yuying gently tugged at Qing Yiyi's sleeve: "You're putting a lot of pressure on the children like this..."

"I can't hear you, I can't hear you."

Qing Yiyi held Hei Yang Hongli tightly in each arm and said rather unreasonably, "You're not allowed to leave until you agree!"

"Know, know."

Hei Yang comforted his mother, somewhat amused and exasperated, "Mom, you know I'm the most timid person. If there's danger, I'll be the first to run. I'll take good care of myself!"

"And Xiao Li too!"

Qing Yiyi said, "You also need to protect Xiao Li. You can't just think about yourself!"

"Do you still need to worry about that?"

Hei Yang smiled helplessly and said patiently, "How could I possibly abandon Xiao Li? Don't you think so, Xiao Li?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Hongli nodded quickly: "Heiyang will definitely protect me, and I will protect him too. Just relax and wait for our good news!"

You're not allowed to lie to me.

Qing Yiyi let go of their hands and looked at the two of them warily, as if she was afraid they would suddenly disappear.

"I'm not kidding you~"

Hei Yang Hong Li nodded quickly.

"That's fine."

Qing Yiyi nodded, then returned to Hei Muguang's side somewhat embarrassed, stepping back slightly behind his case: "I'm fine now."

"That……"

Hei Yang and Hong Li exchanged a glance, pondering what else they hadn't explained, but in the end, they had already explained everything that needed to be explained.

"Then we'll be leaving?"

Hei Yang Hong Li spoke.

"Did you get the food?"

Lan Yuying suddenly asked again, still feeling uneasy.

"I've got it, Mom, you already asked about it."

Hongli nodded repeatedly.

"Oh."

Lan Yuying looked suspicious, as if she had forgotten to say something. After thinking for a long time, she realized that she had indeed explained everything, so she stopped talking and just stared at the two of them intently.

His gaze was somewhat intense, making Hei Yang Hongli subconsciously hesitant to look at him.
