How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

"Ha! Elder Huo Le is truly a master of feigning ignorance!"

Hei Yang Hong Li's eyes narrowed, and she shouted angrily, "Confess honestly!"

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you, sigh..."

Book Title: I Entered the Path to Immortality Through Taoist Scriptures

Recommendation: One talisman can conquer the world, what's a curse compared to that?

Chapter 390≡￣﹏￣≡ヽ(￣д￣;)ノ(；一_一)

"Sigh, there's nothing I can do about it!"

Huo Le sighed, gestured for Hei Yang Hong Li to sit down, and then found a seat for himself, letting out a long, worried sigh.

"To put it simply, I'm just worried about something happening to Xiaoyun."

Huo Le held up a finger and said with a solemn expression, "Think about it, this time it comes from a secret world outside the Realm of Soaring. Who knows what terrifying things might be inside!"

What if something unexpected happens? What if Xiaoyun gets hurt? How am I supposed to live then?

Elder Huo Le said with a sorrowful expression, "Hong Li! Hong Ling! Hei Xiao Huo! Now only Xiao Yun is left as our sole heir. We can't let this continue!"

"Ah this..."

Hei Yang Hong Li revealed his crescent-shaped eyes.

"I remember the last time Xiaoyun came to our house, she ran away while you were seriously ill and unconscious in bed, unable to stop her."

Why the sudden change of heart? You're not hiding her in the sect anymore, you're sending her directly to us, are you?

"Hey, isn't the situation different now? Times have changed. It was one situation back then, and it's a completely different situation now!"

Elder Huo Le said helplessly, "Don't think that I'm unwilling to let go, or that protecting Xiao Yun too much has harmed her. I've already reflected on and corrected that after what happened with Xiao Li last time!"

"what?"

Hongli raised an eyebrow: "So? Where are the corrections?"

Before, they wouldn't let me go to the sea area, but this time they won't let Xiaoyun go to the Fragment Secret Realm. Is there any difference?

"You know you're wrong, but you'll do it again next time? Do you think you're me or Hei Yang?!"

"No, no, no, there are still differences!"

Huo Le pulled a stack of papers from under the table and explained, "Since last time, I have carefully studied the strength and overall ability distribution of the disciples in the sect and made a relatively complete chart."

This way, I'll have a new reason to stop Xiaoyun—no, I mean, this way I'll have a sufficiently standard benchmark to specifically assess whether I've done anything wrong!

Huo Le unfolded the top sheet of paper, which contained a classic hexagonal statistical comparison chart.

"Look, these six sections represent realm, supernatural power, temperament, survival ability, combat ability, and exploration experience."

There are a total of six criteria. The first is the cultivation level, and the minimum requirement this time is the Foundation Establishment stage, which Xiaoyun has indeed met. In terms of supernatural abilities, she is also very outstanding.

Needless to say, her combat abilities are exceptional; she possesses an extraordinary talent for combat, a natural gift in the world of martial arts...

I don't need to elaborate on the exploration experience; Xiaoyun's exploration experience is still zero so far.

"Wow, how dare you say that!"

Hongli couldn't help but feel indignant on behalf of Xingyun.

"You're treating this like you need work experience before you can apply for a job, and then you won't give a job to someone without experience. Aren't you just bullying honest people?"

"If you don't give her the chance, Xiaoyun won't take the first step, and she'll never take the second step!"

Hongli looked serious; she genuinely wanted her best friend to grow and mature.

"But if Elder Huo Le, you give Xiao Yun a chance, and let her have a chance to show herself, do you know that she can't become an amazing star?"

"No, speaking of making a name for oneself overnight, I just remembered something."

Hong Li paused, then pointed her finger and said, "Xiao Yun was number one in that arena before, which means she also fought in the arena once, just like I did before."

Moreover, Xiaoyun's competition this time is even more prestigious because it's a grand competition for the younger generation of sects in the entire cultivation world!

With such results, Xiaoyun doesn't deserve it. Who does? Brother Bu Tian!

(Hong Butian: ???)

"Well, you can't generalize about ring matches. Who knows if letting her take the first step will cause her to stumble at the very first step..."

Huo Le muttered something under his breath, coughed twice, and pointed to the next spot.

"And then there's mindset, mindset, Xiao Li, you know Xiao Yun, she gets easily agitated when things happen, and she's also easily trusting of others, so her temperament is definitely..."

"There's definitely no problem with his temperament!"

Hongli gave a soft snort and spoke up for her best friend once again.

"Xiaoyun relied on sheer willpower to stand at the very end of the ring. Do you dare say that Xiaoyun didn't have the right mindset?"

"Uh, but this survival ability..."

Elder Huo Le shrank his neck.

"What a joke! The Fire Immortal's Divine Power can be used to heal injuries, and you're telling me it's not good for survival?"

Who can actually survive like that? Hei Xiaolong's ice-related supernatural power? Can he freeze himself to stay fresh and survive?

(Hei Xiaolong: ???)

"Hey, Xiao Li."

Hei Yang tugged at Hong Li's sleeve and muttered under his breath, "Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you!"

Talking badly about others behind their backs is not a good habit!

"I'm not stating the facts..."

Seeing Hei Yang's serious expression, Hong Li's voice grew softer and softer. She pouted and obediently said, "I know, Hei Yang, I was wrong."

Can I apologize to them next time we meet?

"Uh, what I mean is that next time you can just talk bad about them to their faces. It's pointless to talk about them behind their backs because they can't hear you."

"I see! I've learned something new!"

Hongli nodded in sudden realization, turned to look at Elder Huole who was still trying to explain, snorted, and grabbed the paper.

"Hey, Xiao Li, what are you doing?"

Huo Le quickly tried to stop Hong Li's actions.

"Those are the judging rules that I spent a long time compiling. They are very important, and we will need them later."

"boom!"

A fire erupted from Hong Li's hand, burning the paper to ashes.

She turned to look at Elder Huo Le and raised an eyebrow.

"Ah, Elder Huo Le, what did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly, could you repeat it?"

"Uh……"

Huo Le's lips twitched slightly, and he muttered, "Actually, I was thinking it's okay if you burn it, because I made many copies."

Hongli: "..."

"Where are your many portions?!"

Hong Li rolled up her sleeves and said with a fierce look, "Watch me go and get rid of them all."

"Hey hey hey, no no no!"

Huo Le quickly dissuaded him, saying, "Don't go against a bunch of dead things!"

What's the use of a pile of paper? It's just for recording things. Even if you burn it, the knowledge is still in my head. I can just retrieve it, right?

"Oh ho, I see, I get it now!"

Hong Li turned around and threw a punch at Elder Huo Le. A gust of wind swept through, ruffling Elder Huo Le's beard.

"If you don't fight with inanimate objects, then they're living things. In other words, you just need to solve the problem at its root!"

"Once we deal with Elder Huo Le, that knowledge won't be spread, right?"

"That's wrong, quickly take your fist away, I'm scared."

"whispering sound."

Hong Li pursed her lips and tapped lightly on the table with her fingers.

"Anyway, I don't agree with Elder Huo Le's ideas!"

Hongli said quietly, "Do you believe I'll go back and tell Xiaoyun right now, so he knows what you're up to!"

"do not!"

Huo Le quickly shook his head and waved his hands: "The secret realm is too unknown and dangerous!"

"What do you mean? Didn't you say there was no life inside?"
