You two sign your names, and I'll just borrow the city lord's seal—cough cough, I mean, I'll just borrow it.

Right here, you sign your names, I stamp mine, and the two of you plus Xiao Huo are officially a family, a household.

"Hiss—"

Hongli opened her eyes, stretched her hands above her head, let out a long sigh, picked up a pen from the table, carefully turned the pages, her heart pounding, and muttered to herself.

"We've finally made it this far! My heart is pounding, my hands are trembling, hehehe..."

"Mom and Dad, could you show me where I should sign this?"

"Here, on this page."

Having had experience before, Lan Yuying pointed out the location to her daughter and jokingly said with a smile, "Xiao Li looks very happy. Is she so eager to be with Xiao Yang?"

"Hehe, of course!"

Hong Li laughed and readily admitted, "That's Black Sun! How many Hong Lis could refuse it!"

That way, no matter how I manipulate, cough cough, or treat Hei Yang, it'll all be legal! Hahaha!

"Is there a possibility..."

Hei Yang said weakly, "Murdering one's husband is still considered a crime."

Hongli: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Hei Yang: "???"

Hongli: "Oh dear, what are you thinking? I said I absolutely have no intention of murdering you!"

Hei Yang: "..."

Why does it feel like it lacks a certain persuasiveness...?

"Oh, right, I just remembered something..."

After a pause, Hongli couldn't help but chuckle.

"Speaking of which, my aunt once pretended to be a love guru and told me: 'Oh, weddings and marriage certificates are not that important to you and Xiaoyang. You don't need to put so much effort into them!'"

Xiao Li, instead of focusing on these formalities, you should care more about the real, living people who are by your side!

My aunt said that those formal proofs and such are just policies and systems promulgated by a mortal country. As the leaders of the cultivation world, Hei Yang and I don't need the other party to acknowledge us. What qualifications does the other party have to acknowledge us?

She also said that I just didn't quite grasp the point, and that if we encountered the Emperor of Qiankun Kingdom, he should be the one to treat us with utmost respect...

Oh well, anyway, I've rambled on and on. The old lady is getting on in years, cough cough, just kidding, hehe. My aunt is still very approachable.

But that was roughly the gist of it: it told me to relax and not worry about so many formalities…

"But..."

Hongli suddenly made a funny face.

"How could she, a single person, understand? Do I care about those formalities? What I care about is who's helping me prepare all that stuff!"

Is it faster to eat by sharing food at the table or by eating separately?

Is going on a date with Hei Yang more comfortable than the two of them lying at home?

Or is it that without this wedding, they can't be husband and wife?

No, that's not it! It's just a romanticized narrative created by merchants to boost sales!

Singles might think it's a waste of money, but couples don't necessarily spend money only for each other to see!

Just chatting casually, posting on social media, "Oh, so-and-so had such a great time with me again," who wants to see it? Let others see it!

That's right, this is the legendary hateful display of affection. Happiness is relative, and letting single friends see it is also part of the plan!

So, in the end, when couples exchange gifts, they're actually spending money to impress their friends!

I was so worried that my friends wouldn't have enough money to buy lemons that I was willing to sell everything I owned to buy them!

They are so gentle, I'm so happy...

(The above seven paragraphs are crossed out)

Ultimately, all of this is about the satisfaction and enjoyment in one's heart. We care about the result, but we care even more about the process!

While passionate emotional outbursts certainly involve genuine feelings, most of the time, love is hidden in these mundane matters.

The grand, epic romances are mostly other people's stories, often with artistic embellishment. But these trivial, everyday things are what truly define their love!

"Tsk tsk, next time I see your aunt, I'll definitely have to thank her."

Hei Yang glanced at Hong Li and said speechlessly, "Thank you for refusing to hire someone to kill you after all this time. You've been so merciful in letting me live."

"Hey."

Hong Li chuckled, not arguing, and handed the pen to Hei Yang, pointing it out to him and indicating that he should also sign his name.

"Make sure your signature looks nice, this is for record-keeping, so pay attention to your appearance!"

"Come on, I'm afraid if I put in too much effort, my handwriting will be too beautiful and make your handwriting look terrible in comparison."

Hei Yang retorted casually, then sighed and couldn't help but complain, "Actually, what I wanted to say from the beginning was this job title section!"

Black lines appeared on Hei Yang's forehead as he couldn't help but angrily say, "Why is Hong Li the sect leader of the Five Elements Sect, while I'm just an unemployed bum here? What the hell is this unemployed bum?!"

"Ah? Is there a problem?"

Hongli brought over a bowl of peanuts from somewhere, popped them into her mouth, glanced at Heiyang, and chuckled softly.

"You're not wrong, are you? You're unemployed right now, what kind of job do you have?"

"Well……"

Black Sun was deep in thought.

"Sleep therapist?"

"What kind of job is this? Did you create it yourself?"

"foodie!"

"Come on, give me a break!"

"A master alchemist, his record is verifiable!"

"Get out of here!"

"Hongli, the nanny! The sect leader's wise and capable wife!"

"Huh? Interesting."

Hong Li's eyes lit up, she held up a finger and nodded, saying, "It's decided, you'll be the sect leader's wife!"

"It's my husband..."

Hei Yang revealed dead fish eyes: "Sect Master, that should be my husband."

"Oh, whatever you want."

Hongli turned to her parents and asked, "How is it? Can it be changed?"

"This is not as simple as just saying it."

Lan Yuying reminded her, "It seems we also need proof of employment. We can't just fill it out randomly; it needs an official stamp..."

"That's it..."

Hongli nodded in realization, reached out and tore a page from her notebook, then placed it on the table and began to work on it.

"It's just a certificate, an official stamp!"

[Mr. Heiyang, you are hereby notified that you have been chosen to be the husband of the Sect Master of the Five Elements Sect. Your job is to please the Sect Master until you retire together with Sect Master Hongli!]

"Snapped!"

Hong Li took out the token, pressed it down on the surface, infused it with spiritual energy, and the stamping was completed.

"Alright! All done. Congratulations, Hei Yang, you've become a qualified sect leader's husband. Now you're no longer an unemployed bum!"

"You're so gentle, I'm so happy I could cry..."

"It should, it should."

Hei Yang Hongli kept muttering to herself, but she still carefully followed her parents' instructions to modify and confirm the information, which meant that Hei Yang Hongli and Xiao Huo had officially registered as a family.

"Hmm, is everything alright now?"

Hei Muguang put the document away again, nodded and said, "I'll go to the city lord's mansion again in a little while, put the original there, and then give the transcribed copy to you two for safekeeping."

"Mmm!" *2

Hei Yang and Hong Li nodded quickly, and of course, the two of them didn't forget about laziness.

They explained to their parents with gestures, asking their dad to register Lazy on his way home.

However, laziness won't be recorded in Hei Yang Hong Li's household register; she's just a friend.

Besides, how could a 600-year-old lazybones be registered in the household of Hei Yang, Hong Li, and Xiao Huo? The parents and daughters combined are not even forty years old!

……

"Look, this is a list of things that Yu Ying and I need to prepare."
