The elder looked with satisfaction at the outstanding disciple who had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage at such a young age, stroked his beard, and said, "As long as you calm down and cultivate, you will surely be able to inherit the position of elder within a hundred years!"

"Ah."

Hong Li's emotions did not fluctuate much, and she nodded in response, "Thank you, Elder."

"Hmm, her personality is a bit too ethereal, ultimately lacking a certain liveliness..."

The elder frowned and pondered, "Um, Hongli, have you ever thought about going home to visit?"

In recent years, many disciples who have joined the sect have talked about their hometowns to some extent. Your junior sister, Xingyun, goes back almost every year, but you have never mentioned your hometown at all.

Now he's even planning to bury himself in seclusion and cultivate diligently, isn't he going back to see them one last time?"

"Go home..."

Hong Li's expression remained calm, and her tone was even.

....................................

In the silent darkness, a faint light flickered uncertainly, seemingly about to be extinguished as if battered by wind and rain, yet also carrying a sense of composure.

"squeak"

Hei Yang gently pulled the curtains back, opened the door, went into the living room, and then turned into another study.

"Xiao Tian?"

The woman wearing glasses, who was writing something in her notebook at the desk, looked up and frowned at Hei Yang: "Is there something you need? What are you doing here? Those two workbooks..."

"I'll stop writing for now."

Hei Yang smiled and shook his head. He watched as the woman frowned, stood up, and walked over to give her a gentle hug: "It's so good to hear you say a few more words."

"Xiao Tian, ​​what's wrong with you..."

The middle-aged woman seemed to have never seen him like this before and was startled: "Are you sick?"

"It is okay."

Hei Yang smiled, loosened his arm, took a few steps back, waved, and said, "I'm very healthy. Take care of yourself too. I should go now. Goodbye, Mom."

"Xiao Tian?!"

The woman exclaimed in surprise, but there was no one in front of her. She was stunned.

After a long silence, she murmured softly, "As long as you're healthy..."

……

"Sorry."

Hei Yang gently put down the bowl in his hand and smiled at Meng Po, saying, "I still won't drink from this bowl."

However, out of respect for you, I won't rinse my mouth this time. Also, you're right about something: the next life is indeed quite good.

Hei Yang's figure suddenly disappeared, and the bowl of soup, without support, drooped and fell, but was steadily caught by a withered hand.

"Smelly boy..."

The aged voice carried a hint of amusement.

……

"Was that Grandma Meng really from a dream world?"

In the spacious room, Hei Yang took down the family photo, examining it while muttering to himself, "Why does it feel like there's a bit of truth mixed in? Ugh, it's kind of scary."

Hei Yang hissed softly, looked at the family photo in his hand, smiled and shook his head as he hung it back up: "They all look like complete strangers. This little boy isn't even as handsome as I was when I was a kid."

"If I didn't know her, I wouldn't say goodbye. Blind dates are ridiculous. Even though nothing happened and I haven't even met her, I still need to apologize to Xiaoli at least a little bit to feel at ease. Tsk tsk."

Black Sun disappeared into the house, and then the entire house vanished as a phantom.

....................................

"You stinky Hei Yang, why aren't you coming to play with me? You'd better wait to apologize!"

The little girl, who looked to be two or three years old, spoke fiercely in a childish voice, glared fiercely in the direction of someone's house, and slowly stood up from the steps.

"Xiao Li, what did you say?"

The woman standing to the side looked puzzled, while the little girl waved her hand and said, "Mom, we're going back right away. Remember to keep a close eye on Xiaoxue..."

…………

"Oh, bah!"

Hongli used her red-tasseled spear to pry at the bodies of the giant tiger and weasel on the ground, muttering to herself, "I'm really amazing, I even managed to kill them. I knew Heiyang was the one who dragged me down. I'll make him apologize when we get back..."

.........

On the airship, Hong Li gazed into the distance, secretly enjoying the whispers of a few extras who thought they were talking about her quietly.

Hehe, suddenly I have a cool and powerful ice queen persona. Oh dear, I've managed to pull it off again!

...............

"Um, Elder, do you mean I should go home and visit?"

A strange light flickered in Hong Li's eyes.

"Huh? How..."

The elder suddenly felt something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on why: "Uh, well, I was just suggesting that if you don't want to..."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm the kind of person who listens to advice the most."

Hongli turned and left, cheerfully saying, "It's just going home, I know that well. But Elder, I don't plan to return to the sect after I get back, so I'm letting you know in advance..."

"???"

The elder looked astonished and instinctively reached out his hand: "Wait, you..."

"Click"

The illusion shattered.

..............................

"Well……"

Beside a tiny, rice-grain-sized ball of light, Hei Yang Hong Li suddenly opened her eyes.

"Xiao Li!"

Seeing Xiao Li appear unharmed before him, Hei Yang's face lit up with joy: "I've been looking for you for ages..."

"Hehehe, honey~~~"

Hongli leaped into Heiyang's arms, feeling the familiar and warm scent and touch, and whined coquettishly, "Husband, let me tell you, I am the powerful and aloof ice queen Li, I can kill two sheep with one tiger, ptooey ptooey, I can kill two demons by myself..."

"Alright, alright, Ice Queen Li, kill two sheep, kill two sheep..."

Hei Yang coaxed gently with a smile, "But you aloof little Li, you didn't realize you were putting pressure on yourself again, did you?"

"Huh? Oh my god?! How embarrassing! Waaah, you stinky Hei Yang..."

"Oh, Xiaoli, don't cry. Your husband is here. Only your husband is here!"

"Mmm, honey, kiss me. I've missed you so much after just one hour..."

"Mmm, okay, mua!"

"Kiss me again."

"Uh-huh."

"Kiss me again."

"Okay! Alright!"

"Again... honey... can you do it?"

"Oh ho, getting cocky now? Take this!"

"Hey, hey, oh, help ...

The tiny ball of light beside it: "..."

(Look at me, look at me!)

(Stop busy! I have important business to attend to!)

(In broad daylight! Shameless! People's hearts have changed...)

..............................

"Hey, old man, I dreamt about our son..."

"Are you still half asleep? Your son is still asleep in the next room..."

I was referring to my eldest son!

"...What did you dream about?"

He said he was safe and healthy and told me to take care of myself.

"That's good, it sounds auspicious."
