How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

Hongli retorted without hesitation, "If someone has feelings for you, would they find another girlfriend?"

"This this……"

Hongling whispered, "What if he's testing me? For example, he might deliberately tell me that he has someone he likes, just to see how I react?"

He was really just testing me, trying to see how important he was to me.

"Well, it's hopeless."

Hongli looked at her aunt with pity and shook her head: "Yes, she's really beyond saving."

"Hey! Xiao Li, what do you mean by that?!"

Hongling said unhappily, "Didn't you tell me before that as long as they weren't married, I still had a chance..."

"I lied to you."

Hongling: "???"

"Promise me, Auntie."

Hongli grabbed her aunt's shoulder and said sincerely, "Don't become such a pathetic third party, okay?"

"But, but I was here first!"

Hongling looked at her niece's face, and her eyes instantly reddened: "Waaah, clearly, clearly I was the one who met him first! Back then, back then, waaah, she was the third party!"

"I see."

Hongli pulled her aunt into her arms, gently patting her back to comfort her, "I can understand. It's just too sad to think about a childhood sweetheart being defeated by a newcomer!"

"Xiao Li..."

Hongling sobbed, her eyes welling up with tears as she looked at her niece: "You're so kind..."

"Ah."

Hongli nodded in agreement: "Of course I'm ready."

"Please promise me something, okay?"

"Okay, I'll promise you something."

"You and that boy named Hei Yang, you must confess your feelings to him soon!"

Hongling sobbed uncontrollably: "Don't follow in your aunt's footsteps!"

"that……"

"Ok?"

A slight blush rose on Hongli's face, and she smiled shyly: "We're already... together. Yes, he confessed to me!"

Hongling: "???"

"Xiao Li..."

Hongling slowly placed her hand on Hongli's back, her head lowered.

"Uh……"

Hongli sensed something was wrong and instinctively stepped back: "What's wrong...?"

"Did not you say……"

Hongling's voice was calm: "Do you understand me?"

"Yes."

Cold sweat dripped from Hongli's forehead: "I'm trying to understand you from the perspective of the victor, is there a problem with that...?"

"Oh, that's how it is."

"Ah, haha, that's how it is."

"Then go to hell!"

Hongling suddenly grabbed her niece by the back of the neck, gritting her teeth: "You winner in life, just die!"

"Ahhhhh, Auntie, calm down! I'm your niece!"

"I'm killing you! May your spouse spend the rest of their life in regret and pain!"

"Ahhh, I'm so cute, I can't die, I want to live!"

"You little vixen who only brings pain to others, I'll get rid of you!"

"Aaaaaaah, help!"

Three minutes later.

Hongli, Hongling, and Xiaohuo were all bowing their heads as Elder Yao scolded them.

"What's going on! Don't you know you can't make loud noises in the pharmacy?!"

"Sorry, we were wrong!"

"What if it disturbs the other patients?!"

"Sorry, we were wrong."

"What if I disturb the patient's family?"

"Sorry……"

"Don't do that again next time!"

"Um……"

Watching Elder Yao walk away, the two people and the crane finally looked up. Little Fire innocently pouted, "So why does Little Fire have to get scolded too?"

However, no one answered Xiao Huo.

Hongli rubbed the back of her neck and looked at her aunt: "But besides visiting you, Aunt, I also want to tell you something quite important."

"Ok?"

The aunt looked at her niece with displeasure: "What's wrong? Do you want to upset your aunt again?"

"No, that..."

Hong Li hesitated for a moment, then made up her mind, looked at Hong Ling, and said solemnly, "I don't want to stay in the Five Elements Sect anymore. I want to go home. I want to go back to Five Colors City with Hei Yang!"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 138 Many things seem difficult, but in reality... you'll find they are truly difficult!

"Xiao Li, you mean..."

Hongling paused for a moment, then repeated uncertainly, "Go home?"

"That's right, it's about going home!"

Hongli breathed a sigh of relief, a look of relief on her face. Making a decision felt good; she just needed to follow her heart!

Thinking of this, Hongli's voice became lighter. She smiled and gestured to her aunt not to speak yet, to wait until she finished speaking.

"Auntie, don't be surprised. This decision was made after careful consideration. It wasn't something I blurted out on a whim. Well, my mind raced for quite a while!"

"But……"

"Nothing to worry about."

Hongli shook her head, her face filled with emotion: "Looking back on this year, we have truly experienced far too many dangers."

Tiger chase, falling off a cliff, poisoned chicken soup, abandoned disciple of the Medicine King, shattered meridians, surrounded by wild beasts, prince plotting for the throne, escape from the snowy mountains, food poisoning, struggle in the River of Oblivion...

"Of course, these hardships and experiences can also help people grow a lot, I must admit that."

Hongli smiled helplessly: "But it's just too tiring. If I continue down this path, I might encounter an accident that I can't overcome one day. It would be too ironic if I lived longer than I did and died peacefully in my sleep."

"but……"

"There are no buts."

Hong Li waved her hand nonchalantly: "Aunt, you may not know, but I'm already at the Foundation Establishment stage. I'm only seventeen years old now, and if nothing unexpected happens, I still have over two hundred and eighty years to live... Although I still feel it's a bit short, it doesn't matter!"

"Oh, you've reached the Foundation Establishment stage?"

Hongling's eyes widened, she paused for a moment, then spoke again: "But even so..."

"Don't try to persuade me, I won't regret making this decision!"

Hongli looked at her aunt: "As the saying goes, how do you know if you don't try?"

But now, I have not only experienced the mundane life of an ordinary person, but also witnessed the wonderful world of cultivation.

Having experienced both kinds of lives, I should have the right to speak on this, right?

That's why I said my decision was made after careful consideration. Cultivating immortality? I'd rather return to the source!

"but……"

"Do not worry!"

Hongli patted her aunt's back, her eyes filled with tears: "That's it then. I'll pack my things, pay back the money I owe, and then I'll leave."
