How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

But the reality is that, relying solely on my own talent, it would be very difficult for me to be selected by the Five Elements Sect to become a disciple of the immortal sect—I was stuck at the very first step of the plan!

If anyone is blocking or hindering me, I just need to remove that obstacle.

But the problem lies in my talent, and I don't even know how to make up for it!

I know that because of you, Sister Hongli, Aunt Hongling told me that entering the Five Elements Sect wouldn't be difficult... But what happens after that?

I am inherently unqualified, and even if I get in through connections, the gap will likely only widen.

Sister, you became the sect leader in a year, while I might be forced to leave or end up at the bottom in a year.

Wasting my time, achieving nothing, and then going back home to continue relying on my parents for support... I would feel so guilty!

But Mom and Dad said, "It's nothing, as long as you're happy! We can support you!"

This is not the point!

The key point is that I also want to repay them!

Otherwise, what have I been working so hard for all these years?

Was my life over the past ten years or so meaningless?

Should I accept my fate and admit that I'm just not cut out for this?

I don't want to! I don't want to! I don't know!

But I can't do it, I really can't, I've tried for so long, but I still can't do it!

But the nicer they are to me, the more open-minded they seem, the more pressure I feel.

I'd rather get yelled at; that would actually make me feel better...

I'm feeling very confused right now. I have so much to say to others, but when my parents try to talk to me and find a solution, I become extremely resistant.

I felt like I was stranded on a deserted island, constantly sending out distress signals and throwing out messages in bottles, hoping someone would see them and find me.

When I finally saw a boat passing by in the distance on the island, I panicked and scurried into the bushes to hide myself...

I want to be saved, but I don't want to have any contact with anyone. I'm so conflicted. I feel like I'm pushing myself to the brink of despair...

Hong Qiao rested her arms on the table, burying her face in them. Hong Li sat down next to her and stroked her cousin's head.

"So, you came to your sister for help?"

"I don't know... I really don't know..."

Hong Qiao's voice trembled: "I can't sleep, I haven't been able to sleep for a long time."

I heard a sound, like some kind of music, but after listening for a while, I realized it was just a meaningless auditory hallucination.

Closing my eyes means having nightmares, and my mind is filled with negative emotions.

I know I think I might be sick, and I'm worried that if anything happens to me, my parents will be heartbroken...

The more I thought about it, the more anxious and restless I became; I felt like I was going crazy...

I even started fantasizing about things that never happened, scaring myself with unfounded fears, like my spiritual progress suddenly regressing instead of improving, or me suddenly falling seriously ill, and everything just vanishing into nothingness...

Even recently, I experienced heart pain, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, and cold sweats...

I was terrified because I've often heard people say that the heart is a very important organ; it's usually fine, but if it does, it can be fatal. I'm so afraid of dying!

I cried and looked for my parents. They took me to see a doctor, who said there was nothing wrong with my heart; it was a psychological issue...

My parents breathed a sigh of relief, but I felt like I had caused unnecessary trouble for the family.

I...I...I..."

"If only Heiyang had half of your maturity and hard work..."

Hong Li revealed her crescent-shaped eyes: "I'll just treat him like a parasite, happily kept at home by him without moving a muscle..."

"elder sister……"

Hong Qiao looked up, her eyes red with tears: "What should I do? I feel like there's no way out in my life..."

"You can't say that! How old are you?"

Hong Li frowned: "Don't be afraid, I'm here for you. In the Qi Refining stage, you can just use resources to build up your abilities. But in the Foundation Establishment stage, comprehension of supernatural powers depends on your brainpower. Talent is no longer the deciding factor."

Moreover, I've heard there are rare and precious materials that can improve one's talents, and I can help..."

"But in this case..."

Hong Qiao sobbed, "Isn't it just causing trouble for my sister?"

So, wouldn't that mean I'd go from relying on my parents to relying on my older sister? What's the difference? So I'm still a burden!

Hongli: "???"

This is from yesterday...

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 275: The incident of almost dying of thirst despite a pot of plain water being on the table less than three meters away from me.

"nailed it?"

Hong Li noticed Hei Yang the moment he appeared in the room.

She looked at her boyfriend, who hummed in response.

"The other party is relatively easy to talk to."

Hei Yang sat down opposite Hong Li and Hong Qiao, nodding in affirmation.

"Everyone exchanged pleasantries politely, and everything is fine now."

"That's it..."

Hongli raised an eyebrow, those who know, know.

"what happened?"

Hei Yang turned to look at Hong Qiao, who was in low spirits. Although he already had a general understanding of the situation, he still wanted to show her some specific concern.

"There's nothing I can't say."

"Well, let me explain."

Hongli waved her hand helplessly, and after muttering a few words, she explained the situation to Heiyang.

"That's it."

Hong Li glanced helplessly at Hong Qiao.

"Sister, how should I put it, I don't feel any connection with you at all, and I don't know how to help you..."

"or……"

Hongli whispered, "Shall I brainwash you?"

Hong Qiao: "???"

"Uh……"

Hongli explained weakly.

"That's right, you know about soul-searching techniques, puppetry, and stuff like that!"

Well, it's still your personality. I'll just guide you a little on your attitude towards this matter so you won't get upset!

Think about it, isn't psychological counseling essentially a form of hypnosis and brainwashing...?

"Hmm, I do have a way to get you in touch with a memory erasure expert, it'll only take a spoonful... Oh dear!"

"Black Sun!"

Hongli covered her head, looking at Heiyang with indignation: "Why did you hit my head!"

"Who told you to talk nonsense and scare other people's children?"

Hei Yang rolled his eyes, looked at Hong Qiao who was full of question marks, and comforted her, "Don't listen to your sister's nonsense. The psychological counseling is not like what she said."

Yes, this is actually a very common question; many children your age have this kind of confusion.

"Tch tch tch, you act like you know everything."

Hongli rolled her eyes: "If you're so good, then you do it."

"Tsk tsk..."

Hei Yang chuckled helplessly. The anxiety magic in this child had been withdrawn; now it was just the part that was naturally there.

"Well, to be honest, I actually know a little about it..."

Hei Yang laughed and retorted, "At least I know more than Li. Well, experience makes perfect!"

"Eh?"

Hongli turned to look at Heiyang, blinked, and knew that he was bringing up the other world again.

Having already learned a great deal about Hei Yang's past, she could roughly guess what was going on after hearing these words.

I've heard that anxiety is more common in that world, and that it's an emotion that can be sold for profit...
