Chu Yunyi's gaze was involuntarily drawn to it, and as she looked at that wisp of hair, she couldn't help but feel a sense of longing.

Wow, he's so handsome! But she quickly came to her senses and realized that staring at him like that was really impolite.

She quickly looked away, her cheeks flushing instantly. She was too embarrassed to lift her head, afraid of meeting Hua Qi's gaze.

He lowered his head and pretended to eat while talking.

"Actually, it's normal that you can't find me. The name I use in the game is not my real name. Plus, I'm a bit socially awkward, so I don't usually go out unless I have something to do. I just stay at home all day practicing."

"Look, I finally managed to go out, but I ended up in a secret realm. So, finding me is going to be pretty difficult."

If it weren't for the tasks issued by the sect that she had to complete, she really wanted to stay in the house forever.

Thinking about this, she couldn't help but frown, feeling a surge of annoyance.

She gets a headache whenever the topic of sect missions comes up.

This time, I have to make another trip to the Jade Forest to collect herbs.

Sigh, I just hope that the journey will be peaceful and safe, and that I won't encounter any strangers, let alone any strange and mysterious places.

Her only wish now is to be able to quietly hunt a few demonic beasts, smoothly collect the necessary spiritual herbs, and then quickly return to the sect to report back.

Upon hearing this, Hua Qi nodded in deep agreement.

"Finding someone with social anxiety is indeed not an easy task."

"However, my sect's mission is not yet complete. Sigh! I must set off to gather herbs tomorrow."

"What kinds of medicinal herbs do you need to collect?"

"The medicinal herbs I need this time are Clever Leaf, Hawthorn, Fire Spirit Grass, and Greenery."

Hua Qi was somewhat surprised when she heard the word "greenery".

"What? Greenery? Isn't this herb supposed to grow in the deepest part of the outer edge of the Stream Jade Forest? As far as I know, there are fourth-tier demonic beasts in that place!"

Normally, only cultivators at the Golden Core stage are capable of contending with such a being, and you are currently only at the second level of Foundation Establishment. This journey will likely be extremely dangerous! How could your sect assign such a daunting task to a Foundation Establishment disciple?

Upon hearing the word "greenery," Hua Qi immediately realized that this task was far too difficult for a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

After all, with their current strength, it is already difficult enough for them to hold their own against a third-tier demonic beast. If they were to rashly encounter a fourth-tier demonic beast, it would be tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock, with absolutely no chance of winning.

Thinking of this, Hua Qi's expression became even more solemn.

"Oh dear, but I have to accept this mission! I can't refuse it! You know what? I've only accepted four solo missions in total for the Foundation Establishment mission. I've looked through all the missions, but I just can't find any other solo missions."

There was no other way; I had to grit my teeth and accept a solo quest at the Golden Core level. Honestly, I really didn't want to deal with anyone else! Just thinking about interacting with those people made my blood boil. Hua Hua, this is so hard for me!

As Chu Yunyi spoke, she tried to get up and go to his side, reaching out to shake Hua Qi's hand, as if this would make him feel her helplessness more clearly.

However, just as she was about to get up, she suddenly stopped moving as if she had realized something.

Her cheeks instantly turned bright red, like ripe apples. She and Hua Qi had only just met...

This isn't quite right, so she sat down again, feeling a little embarrassed, and lowered her head.
