How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

"You were the one who said it first."

Hong Li snorted lightly: "Why can't people fight back? Can't take a joke, how boring."

"Okay, okay, my bad."

Hongling conceded, "Please, Xiaoli, have mercy and don't hurt my heart anymore. It really hurts, sob sob sob..."

"Yes, it is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them."

Hongli looked at her aunt who had finally realized her mistake, and stood on tiptoe to try to pat her head. Hmm... she couldn't reach it. Damn it!

"this matter……"

Hongling lowered her head and exchanged a glance with Hongli: "Neither of us is allowed to tell anyone, otherwise one of us will have to die, or we'll both perish!"

"Hmph, that's exactly what I was thinking."

Hong Li suddenly glanced to the side: "However, there is another person here who knows the whole story!"

This person who knew the truth was not just anyone, nor was it a reader, but rather...

"Little Fire! Say your last words!"

The crimson spear pointed at the small, pitiful, and helpless little firecracker hiding in the strands of Hong Ling's hair: "You know too much. This time, no one can protect you!"

"Chirp!"

Little Flamingo was listening intently when it suddenly realized the camera was on it. Its feathers stood on end, and a chill ran from head to toe.

"Chirp...chirp?"

Little Firecracker turned its head pitifully to look at Hongling. They're still in cahoots, aren't they?

"Sorry, Xiao Huo."

Hongling sighed, "Things are different now. Even I, your old aunt, have a reason to silence you!"

We're sorry, but you're very important to us!

"Chirp!!!"

Xiao Li Huohe finally felt utterly disheartened. Could this world ever be any better? All she wanted was to live!

Little Flamingo's eyes were filled with tears, carrying a trace of her final attachment to this world. Goodbye, world. Although I've only been here a short time, although you are so cold, but...

She really couldn't bear to leave this colorful world. She hadn't grown up yet, and she couldn't fly. After listening to her mother and the others, she also wanted to have a passionate love affair!

It's hopeless, there's no one who can save her anymore...

This world is cold and painful, but...

She will come again next time!

"Hey! Senior Sister Hongli, Aunt Hongling, over here, over here!"

"The savior has arrived!"

Xiao Li Huohe was startled and turned to look in the direction from which the sound came. Sure enough, she was destined to survive. She always managed to meet a benefactor in times of crisis. She must be the chosen one of destiny!

Xingyun ran over happily, waving as she ran. Today, she was no longer wearing the pink dress she had worn when we first met, but had changed into a white outfit. Her hair was also styled into a neat ponytail, and she looked full of energy.

The only slightly odd thing is that, for some reason, Xingyun dyed her hair blue. Does the sect even offer hair dyeing services?

Hongli fell into thought.

In the blink of an eye, the other party had already rushed up and stopped in front of them.

"I came right away after receiving your message!"

Xingyun looked at Hongli and asked excitedly, "Did Senior Sister Hongli really agree to duel with me?!"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 73 The Fire Crane Protection Association condemns Hong Li and Hong Ling!

"Really, I gave you a chance."

Hongli looked at Xingyun with a helpless expression: "I really don't want to discourage you. Our goals don't conflict at all. You can continue to be your cultivation genius and just pretend I don't exist, okay?"

What are you saying?!

Xingyun's face was full of determination: "Challenging the strong, bravely scaling the peaks, advancing despite difficulties, and never being afraid—isn't that what it means to be a cultivator!"

"Chirp!"

As soon as Xingyun finished speaking, a fluffy creature suddenly pounced on her, startling her so much that she almost drew her sword to cut it in half. However, after realizing that it was a small fire crane, she hurriedly stretched out her arm to catch it.

"Wow! Is this the Flamingo Bird from when I was little? It's so cute!"

Xingyun's eyes sparkled: "Mine hasn't even hatched yet! No wonder Sister Hongli is so fast, even hatching a spirit beast is a step ahead of me!"

"Don't be fooled by her lovely appearance; she has committed an unforgivable sin!"

Hongli gripped her spear tightly, her face filled with murderous intent: "Let her go, or I'll take you down with me... ugh..."

Before she could finish speaking, Hongli was covered in the mouth by her aunt. She pushed her aunt's hand away and turned her head in confusion, saying, "What are you doing? Didn't we agree..."

"Shh! Why are you in such a hurry!"

Hongling brought her mouth close to Hongli's ear and whispered, "You're acting so excited right now. What if Xiaoyun asks us what's going on? Wouldn't that be troublesome?"

Anyway, Xiao Huo can't stay by his side forever. Once they get home, she'll close the door and spank the child... cough cough... you know what I mean!

"Oh ho, 'Don't wash your dirty linen in public, deal with her when we get back,' is that what you mean?"

Hongli suddenly realized what was going on, coughed twice, sheathed her spear, and said with a smile, "Um, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. I was just teasing Xiao Huo, she likes..."

Yeah, I love having a gun pointed at me!

She's had this strange habit since she was little, and you can't get rid of it no matter what you say. Being a parent is such a hassle!

"Ah?"

Xingyun tilted her head, looking at Xiao Huo with surprise: "Is what Sister Hongli said true? You're so strange."

"Haha, of course it's true."

Hongli looked at Xiaoli Huohe with a kind expression: "Don't you think so, Xiao-Huo-?"

"Chirp!"

Xiao Li Huohe frantically clung to Xingyun's arms, shaking her head as she did so, "It's not like that, don't believe them!"

"Haha, this is a special habit of our little fire: shaking his head means he agrees."

Hongli looked at Xiaoli Huohe with a smile: "Look how happy she is!"

"Wow, I didn't know you had such a strange personality, Little Fire!"

Xingyun was even more surprised.

"Chirp! Chirp!"

No, it's even stranger to believe such things!

Xiao Li Huohe's mentality collapsed. The savior turned out to be a fool who easily trusted bad people!

"Ha, Little Fire, you're being naughty."

Xingyun smiled slightly and shook her head, then reached out and took Xiao Huo from her bosom, handing it to Hongli: "But you've had enough fun, hurry back to Senior Sister Hongli's side!"

"Yep!"

Hongli's voice was eerie: "Quick, come back quickly—"

"don't want!!!"

Xiao Li Huohe's pupils shrank to the extreme as she cried out, "I don't want to go back! I'll be killed if I go back! Waaah! Help me!"

"Ah, this..." *3

The three people present were stunned for a moment. As it turns out, life is indeed the greatest miracle in the world. In this critical moment, Xiao Li Huohe actually spoke human language!

You know, even Hongling's Fire Crane was raised to the Qi Refining stage before it learned to speak, but this little Fire Crane has only been born for a short time.

At this moment, the three of them were filled with countless thoughts!

Xingyun: Wow, Xiaohuo can talk! Wait, is she... asking for help?

Hongli: Damn, it's even more threatening now. Before, it could only chirp, which was already a risk of leaking secrets. Now that it can talk, I don't even want to think about what will happen!

Hongling: How strange! How long did it take me to reach the fourth level of Qi Refining? How long did it take my little Li to learn to speak? There's no comparison at all!

Xingyun: She's so pitiful, I want to save her!

Hong Li, Hong Ling: She's terrifying, she must be eliminated!

"Ha, that..."

Hongli was still holding out her hand, waiting for the other party to return the little fire crane, when she blinked and said, "Well, the child is just kidding, I was just joking, don't mind him!"

"Senior Sister Hongli..."

Xingyun frowned and took the little firecracker back: "You don't think you can fool me with such an obvious lie, do you? Do I look that stupid?"

"Uh...no, no!"
