Socially awkward female cultivator survives in the cultivation world through online games

“My goodness! To tell you the truth, I went to the city to find the Justice Hall a long time ago, but they were unwilling to come to our poor, remote village to investigate this matter!”

So I had no choice but to come here to try my luck. I beg you, sage, to have mercy and save the lives of my entire village!

As he spoke, the old man looked at Chu Yunyi with pleading eyes, his face full of pleas, which truly evoked pity in people.

However, Chu Yunyi had some doubts. Although she felt she should help the old man who was in such a pitiful state.

But the thought of going to a village full of people that she knew nothing about, and not knowing what the situation was like there, made her want to back out—after all, she was naturally a bit socially anxious!

After much deliberation, Chu Yunyi decided that it would be more appropriate to call Hua Qi over for help.

So she spoke to the old man.

"Grandpa, don't worry. Here's what I'll do: I'll contact someone right away to come and check on your village. Is that alright? Please wait a moment, I'll contact someone right away."

“Immortal, are you going to call someone over? This old man is really worried that the people you summon will come to our little village and wreak havoc! What if they really turn the village into a hellish place?”

So, Immortal, could you please not call anyone? It's just looking for someone, nothing serious. You can come with me, Immortal.”

When the old man heard Chu Yunyi say that she still wanted to bring someone along, he immediately became hesitant. He not only refused repeatedly, but also asked her to go to the village with him alone.

This scene reminded Chu Yunyi of the villains who trafficked people on Earth. Could it be that such despicable people also exist in this cultivation world?

The thought sent chills down her spine, and cold sweat poured down her back.

"Since you think this is not a big deal, then I won't bother you any longer. I wish you success in finding the villagers. I'll take my leave now."

Chu Yunyi felt that she should not stay here any longer, so she hurriedly said those words and turned to run away.

As she left, she kept a careful eye on what was behind her, afraid that the strange old man might suddenly catch up with her.

After walking for a while with trepidation, Chu Yunyi finally breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure the old man hadn't followed her. However, her heart was still in her throat, and she couldn't completely let her guard down.

The journey from Xiyu Forest to Huaqi's cottage is actually only five or six miles.

If one were to fly on a sword, reaching the destination would be effortless, taking only a short while.

However, at this moment she had no such intention, and instead preferred to stroll along, leisurely enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way.

So she walked slowly and leisurely, her steps light and relaxed, her gaze lingering on the scenery along the roadside as if she were in a trance.

The trees are lush and green, and the flowers are in full bloom. A gentle breeze caresses her hair and clothes, bringing a touch of freshness.

In this way, time passed quietly without us noticing.

However, as the distance traveled increased, a strange feeling gradually welled up in my heart.

Logically speaking, she should have arrived at Hua Qi's cottage long ago!

After all, he clearly remembered that there was a conspicuous signpost outside that grove of trees.

But now, she has been gone for a very long time, and the signpost has still not been found.

Moreover, the sky was overcast, as if it were about to rain.
