Hongling's head popped up with a string of tic-tac-toe characters: "Your aunt is young and beautiful, in the prime of her romantic youth! How dare you say I'm old?!"

“Isn’t it?!”

Hongli blurted out, "I asked my dad, and he said you're more than ten years older than him... mmm..."

Hong Li stared wide-eyed as Hong Ling covered her mouth with one hand, the latter looking at her with a murderous expression and a sly smile.

"Xiao Li, this kind of thing..."

Hongling smiled faintly: "Let's not mention it again! Otherwise, your aunt will tell your parents everything about your sect!"

"Uhhhhhh!!!"

Hongli's eyes widened, and she shook her head frantically.

"You don't want me to talk about it?"

"Ugh! Hmm! Hmm! Ugh!"

Hongli nodded vigorously.

"I can't just not say anything, and you'd better forget about what just happened."

Hongling smiled and said, "Do you understand?"

"Well?"

Hongli looked puzzled. Had she forgotten something? She didn't know anything! She couldn't remember anything!

"Phew, that's more like it."

Hongling let go of her hand, revealing dead fish eyes, and sighed: "It's been more than a month since we last met, and you didn't even say you missed me. Just seeing you makes my blood pressure skyrocket!"

"Hehe, um, um..."

Hongli chuckled twice, released Heiyang's arm, and stood next to him.

"This is just a special way to strengthen our family bond, don't you think?"

"It's you!"

Hongling sighed helplessly: "Fine, I can't be bothered to argue with you, but then again..."

"Ok?"

Hongli tilted her head.

"That, that's it..."

Hongling glanced around, then furtively lowered her head and whispered, "I've finished reading all the novels you left me before."

"Huh?!"

Hongli's eyes lit up: "How is it? How is it? Pretty good, right?"

"Well, to be honest..."

Hongling nodded and gave a thumbs up: "That's definitely possible!"

"Hehe, of course."

Hong Li said smugly, "If I can send it out, how could it be bad? Hahaha!"

"That's great, that's great."

Hongling quickly offered a few compliments, then whispered, "Do you have anything else? I haven't had enough, I want to see more!"

"Uh……"

Hong Li paused for a moment, then scratched her head and said, "Then let's go look. There are bookstores in Five Elements City and Five Colors City. Just go and buy it yourself. You can't just say you don't have money, can you?"

"Oh dear, it's different!"

Hongling shook her head, looking disgusted: "There are so many books there, how am I supposed to know which ones are good and which ones aren't? The ones you recommended are much more to my liking!"

"Uh, why don't you go check which books are selling the best at the bookstore?"

Hongli shrugged: "Or, it's like searching for treasures in a sea of ​​books, finding your favorite book one by one, isn't that a kind of fun too?"

"Wow, if I read whatever books are popular, won't I become a mindless follower without any independent thought?"

Hongling retorted, "Besides, searching for treasures in the sea of ​​books is not only tiring, but you might also get your mood ruined by bad books..."

I trust you, that's why I contacted you!

"Tch, in the end, he's just a blind follower who blindly follows my lead."

Hongli waved her hand helplessly: "Alright, alright, when I have time, I'll take you to my little study and pick out a few books for you, okay?"

"Hey! Xiao Li, you're the best! Your auntie really didn't spoil you for nothing!"

"Ha ha……"

The Five Elements Sect had already given instructions to the City Lord's Mansion, since Five Color City was originally a city within the Five Elements Sect's protection area, and the relationship was quite close.

Therefore, the large group of people entering the city did not cause any disturbance.

Moreover, several of the disciples are actually locals.

After learning that Senior Sister Hongli didn't need them to start work immediately and after agreeing on a time, the local thugs immediately summoned their friends to form teams and go into the city to have fun, leaving the hospitality plan that Hongli and Heiyang had prepared unused.

As for whether those disciples will encounter any danger, putting aside the fact that Five Colors City has always had relatively good security, it would be too absurd if a group of disciples who are at least at the Qi Refining stage, and who are being led by locals, still encountered any danger.

Meanwhile, on Hei Yang Hong Li's side, Xing Yun and Hei Hui Hong Qiao, the two girls, unexpectedly got along well. In no time, they were arm in arm, laughing and joking, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Phew, they can have fun, but I still have to suffer."

Hongling sighed and waved the little notebook in her hand.

"I need to go to the Qing family to meet this young lady who has a disciple spot. I also need to emphasize some important points to her. It's so troublesome!"

"What's so great about getting to know him? He's just... you know, that guy!"

Hei Yang glanced at the name on the list, raised an eyebrow, and waved his hand dismissively.

"Xiao Su, right? I'm not very familiar with her, but she calls my mom 'Auntie,' and my mom knows this girl quite well. We can just ask her to put in a good word for us."

"Tsk tsk, alright then."

Hongling clicked her tongue and exclaimed, "It's true that almost everyone in this city is related by blood or marriage. It really does feel different from the capital."

"uh-huh."

Hongli nodded, took out two pictures from her body, and unfolded them in front of her: "Auntie, can you take a look? This is the land we chose, which we plan to use to build a house."

Then this is a rough sketch of our new house, drawn on the spot. Following this pattern should be fine.

"Hmm, let me see..."

Hongling raised her eyebrows, looked at the design drawings, and showed a hint of surprise.

"This this……"

"How is it? Not bad, right?"

Hongli chuckled and said, "We moved here directly according to the layout of our original home."

There are just a few things to pay special attention to, but it looks like a great new home, doesn't it!

"Well, actually, the main problem is that I didn't understand it..."

Hongling's lips twitched: "What did you draw?"

"Ah this..."

Hong Li craned her neck to peek at her design, and looking at the distorted lines, she revealed a guilty expression.

"Well, haha, I knew it was just a concept drawing, so giving you a general idea would be enough..."

"Ah this..."

Hongling blinked and looked at Heiyang beside her: "You can do that?"

"Hmm, I said I'd design it, but she said her aesthetic sense is superior to mine."

Hei Yang gave him a deadpan look: "Then let her go draw it, I'll just watch from the side."

To be honest, Xiaoli is surprisingly proactive when it comes to things that are important to us.

"Hey, Hei Yang, don't just stand there talking. It's easy for you not to feel the pain!"

"Then I'll find somewhere to sit down?"

"Climb, climb, crawl!"

Hong Li gritted her teeth fiercely and said, "I don't care. Others can say my drawing is ugly, but you can't!"

Even if my drawing is really terrible, just pretend I've lost my conscience and you still have to find a way to praise me!

"Hey, hey, hey, putting aside the point of self-deception, what kind of nonsense is this, having eaten your conscience? How can you be so self-degrading?"

Hei Yang said speechlessly, "Now that's settled, since no one can understand your design drawings, they should just follow what I said, right?"

"Absolutely not!"

Hongli puffed out her chest and looked confident: "It's okay if you don't understand, I'll just explain it to you verbally."

"I feel like I can't understand what you're saying either."
