How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

Xingyun frowned and asked, "Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration? Doesn't he have any weaknesses?"

"Ah, of course there are weaknesses, and there are many of them."

Hongli waved her hand: "But none of that applies to the current situation, unless..."

"unless?"

"Use wine!"

Hong Li's eyes lit up: "That stupid dog can't drink alcohol, he'll be drunk after just two sips. I heard that restaurants in Five Elements City sell wine that even high-level cultivators would get drunk from. The only downside is that it's quite expensive, but that's not a big deal!"

"Just wait until he's drunk, hehehe..."

"Okay!"*2

"However, there is still a problem."

Hong Li suddenly stopped and muttered to herself, "Unfortunately, I'm such a good-for-nothing that I can't drink. One sip and I'm probably done for!"

"Ha, leave this to me!"

Xingyun suddenly burst out laughing and patted her chest: "I'm known as the master of drinking a thousand cups without getting drunk. Even my dad can't outdrink me!"

"Hiss! A master is right beside me!"

Chapter 113 Eat without worry, there's no knife. Damn it, trust me!

When Hei Yang was in the capital, he rented an alchemy room and used the alchemy furnace provided by the owner to refine medicine.

So, it's impossible for Hong Li not to find a place to refine pills.

She didn't even need to go down the mountain. Just a few steps outside was the alchemy hall, which was managed by Elder Dan, who looked very much like a married couple with Elder Yao and was actually a married couple. There were many alchemy rooms specially provided for the disciples.

Apart from the medicinal herbs and spirit stones needed for the alchemy furnace, all other facilities in the alchemy room are free to use.

Moreover, the alchemy furnace inside radiated a precious light, clearly a high-grade product. The inferior alchemy furnace that Hei Yang used back then was simply not worthy of being compared to it.

What is a major sect of immortals?

Of course, the alchemy room is free, but to prevent some disciples from maliciously occupying the room without actually refining pills, such as locking the door and sleeping inside, it is absolutely not allowed.

However, alchemy in the alchemy room requires precise operation, so it is inconvenient to directly enter the room to check who is slacking off. Therefore, we have to find another way.

For example, in Elder Dan's small room, it can be shown which room's alchemy furnace is in use and which room's furnace hasn't even been lit, making it easy to find out who is just pretending.

But if you really have money to burn but nowhere to burn it, and you want to find a warm and quiet little house to sleep in, and you insist on using spirit stones to power the alchemy furnace while you sleep there, then there's nothing the sect can do.

This is an exceptional case, and special circumstances require special handling. After all, a fool wouldn't have that many spirit stones!

Of course, if you cause equipment damage in the alchemy room, such as blowing up the alchemy furnace or blowing up the entire alchemy room, you will be required to compensate the sect for the losses.

Considering they are your own disciples, you can be a little more humane and allow for installment payments for compensation.

By the way, there's a legend circulating in the sect: back when Elder Dan wasn't an elder yet, but just a disciple, he once caused an accident in the alchemy room.

I heard that the accident not only blew up the alchemy room and furnace, but also sent him and the alchemy elder into the air, where they were seriously injured.

As a result, he was discharged from the hospital before the previous Elder Dan, and after accepting the sect's punishment, he took over the position of Elder Dan in a daze.

Oh, that's when he met Elder Yao, who was working at the clinic back then. The two of them started flirting and fell in love, and in the end, the only one who got hurt was Elder Dan...

However, when her aunt told Hongli this "rumor" with a gossipy look on her face, Hongli didn't believe it.

You, a disciple, got blown up right next to the alchemy furnace. Elder Dan's cultivation was higher than yours, and he was farther away from you. Why is it that he recovered more slowly than you?

Hmph, I won't spread rumors, I won't believe rumors, it must be fake!

……

"click"

The door to the alchemy room was pushed open, and Xiao Huo and Xing Yun greeted them expectantly: "Is it ready?"

"Ha, a mere trick, not worth mentioning!"

Hong Li smiled smugly and took out a small transparent bottle in her hand: "One batch, twelve pieces, this round is in the bag!"

"stable!"

Xiao Huo and Xing Yun cheered, then suddenly remembered something: "So, when will he come?"

"Uh, today is the 28th, his birthday is the 30th, and mine is August 2nd."

Hongli frowned in thought, then asked uncertainly, "Just... in the next couple of days?"

"Huh? Sister Hongli doesn't know?"

"That's hard to say."

Hong Li clicked her tongue and stroked her chin: "Given that guy's style, he might want to deliberately obscure the time, for example, he might say he'll arrive on the 29th, but he actually arrived on the 28th."

Then they'd launch a surprise attack on me, trying to scare me half to death or something..."

[Hong Li: Useless! Why aren't you here yet? Look at the numbers!]

[Black Sun: ???]

[Black Sun: Wait, has someone forgotten they still owe me an apology? Why are they jumping around like this?]

[Hong Li: !!!]

[Hongli: Waaaaah, I'm so sorry, I got carried away. Please forgive me, Lord Heiyang, waaaah...]

[Hei Yang: That's more like it. So, are you ready?]

[Hongli: Haha, what do I need to prepare?]

[Black Sun: For example, after not seeing me for half a year, they might lay some kind of elaborate trap or a terrifying snare to welcome me back.]

[Hongli: Wow, am I really as bad as you say?]

[Black Sun: What do you think?]

Hongli: ...

[Hongli: Oh, that's not important. Just give me a definite time when you're coming so I can pick you up, hehe.]

[Heiyang: You're still going to pick me up? You're that kind?]

[Hongli: I'm sorry, I made you worry before, so...]

[Black Sun: Hesitant!]

[Heiyang: But the mountain roads here are so winding, who knows if another bunch of mountains will suddenly appear after we pass one road? I don't have a definite timeframe.]

[Hei Yang: I probably won't be able to make it to your birthday party this year, but you can rest assured I'll get there before yours.]

[Hongli: ? ? ? ! ...

[Hongli: You can't come to my birthday party?!]

[Black Sun: Hmm, what's up?]

[Hongli: I prepared a birthday present for you! It would be a waste if you didn't come!]

[Hei Yang: Ah, well, then I'll have to make it up later... I'll try to get there as soon as possible, and I'll tell you when I get there, is that alright?]

[Hongli: Hmm.]

[Hei Yang: Oh dear, don't be upset, I didn't want this to happen either.]

[Hongli: I know, I'm not upset at all.]

[Black Sun: ...]

[Hongli: Okay, I'm hanging up now. Let me know when you arrive.]

[Black Sun: Okay, sure!]

"..."

"Hongli... Sister?"

Xingyun looked at Hongli beside her. For some reason, the other woman's expression had suddenly turned very ugly.

Hong Li exuded a murderous aura that Xing Yun had never seen before. The pressure was so great that the latter could hardly breathe, and even Xiao Huo secretly slipped out of Hong Li's arms and into Xing Yun's arms.

Are you... alright?

Xingyun asked cautiously, "Yes, is something bothering you?"

"Ah, no."

Hong Li shook her head expressionlessly and closed her eyes: "Let's set the date for August 2nd. He should arrive on that day."

"Hey? It's my senior's birthday? How romantic!"

"Ah, yes."

Hongli turned her head away, and where Xingyun and Xiaohuo couldn't see, she opened her eyes, her gaze filled with anxiety and worry.

He didn't just arrive on my birthday; rather, my birthday was his deadline for himself!

[Hongli: Damn it! Just tell me the truth right now, what happened? Don't try to lie to me, I can tell you're hiding something even from a distance!]
