Socially anxious me transmigrated to a world of cultivation.

When Pingfan sensed someone approaching, he hid.

Unexpectedly, the five people did not leave immediately, but stopped there.

Then Pingfan heard their discussion. He thought to himself that the four major families who had surrounded and killed Li Tiansheng and his wife had all come here.

"Today is truly an auspicious day; I was just about to look for them, and they showed up uninvited."

As for what the five people said next, Pingfan had no interest in listening anymore and was thinking about going to find Zhang Liang and the others right now.

However, just as Pingfan was about to turn around and leave, his foot landed on the ground with a cracking sound, as if he had stepped on a tree branch.

Upon hearing this noise, Pingfan knew that he was probably about to be exposed.

Sure enough, just as Pingfan was about to turn around to see the five people's reaction, the burly man shouted out.

"Who goes there? Get out here right now!"

Upon seeing that the five people were already preparing for battle, Pingfan knew he couldn't escape.

After realizing the situation, Pingfan could only slowly emerge from his hiding place.

However, because Pingfan is not used to interacting with people, he appeared somewhat timid and hesitant when he came out.

As Pingfan stepped out, he looked at the five people in front of him and quickly spoke.

"Just passing by, I'm just passing by."

The five burly men frowned when they saw that the person who came out had no cultivation at all.

This is the Chaos Mountain Range. Although this place is located on the outer edge of the mountain range, countless first-tier demonic beasts roam here.

It is obviously impossible for an ordinary person to move around freely here.

Moreover, although the man in front of me appeared timid and submissive, perhaps this was just a deliberate act.

Thinking of this, the burly man looked at Pingfan with scrutiny in his eyes and asked coldly.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Seeing the scrutinizing gaze of the burly man, Pingfan, not wanting to cause any trouble, spoke slowly.

"I was just hunting some low-level demonic beasts here, and I happened to be passing by."

Upon hearing Pingfan's answer, the burly man was slightly taken aback, then exchanged glances with the four people behind him before looking at Pingfan and speaking.

"Hunting demonic beasts? How dare you, a mere mortal..."

Before he could finish speaking, the burly man seemed to realize something, and quickly changed his mind, asking, "Having no cultivation level doesn't mean having no strength."

"A body cultivator?"

Hearing the burly man's words, Pingfan looked at him and nodded slightly.

Upon seeing Pingfan admit it, all five of them wore strange expressions and stared at Pingfan cautiously.

Normally, who would cultivate physical strength? Generally, it's only after one's cultivation has been ruined or after reaching a certain level that one would think about tempering their physique to improve their strength.

Judging from his ordinary appearance, he is probably not even twenty years old. How could someone so young be practicing body cultivation?

Unable to figure out the reason, the burly man found the person in front of him increasingly strange.

Although he was dressed very simply and his clothes had some holes, there was no blood on his body.

It seems that even if this person is a body cultivator, he is not comparable to an ordinary body cultivator.

Thinking of this, the burly man waved to the people behind him, put away his fighting stance, looked at Pingfan, and said calmly.

"Since you're just passing through, please leave quickly."

Upon hearing the burly man's words, the man called Xiao Wu frowned slightly, looked at the burly man, and said urgently.

"Brother, how can we just let him go? He just happened to be passing by, who can we tell this to..."

However, before he could finish speaking, the burly man shouted sharply.

"Shut up!"

Hearing the burly man's rebuke, Xiao Wu could only reluctantly shut up, but his eyes were filled with strong hostility as he looked at Pingfan.

Pingfan saw the hostility in his eyes but pretended not to, cupped her hands in greeting to the burly man, and said.

"I will leave now."

After saying that, Pingfan turned around and was about to leave when dozens of whooshing sounds rang out from the sky, flying rapidly towards the outside of the Chaos Mountains.

Upon seeing this scene, not only was Pingfan stunned, but even the five rogue cultivators stared blankly at the numerous figures that had just flown by.

After a long while, Pingfan and the five rogue cultivators finally came to their senses. The man called Xiao Wu looked at the many figures leaving in the sky and murmured something.

"Were those people who just flew by members of the four great families? But why did they look so flustered as they left?"

Hearing his words, the burly man and the others were also very puzzled.

After a moment, the only woman among the five spoke up, puzzled.

"Could it be that a powerful figure has appeared at the place where the treasure was discovered? That's why these people seem somewhat flustered."

After hearing what the woman said, the others agreed with her.

After all, only in such a situation would these powerful families, with cultivators at the half-step Nascent Soul stage in charge, appear in such a sorry state.

After the five people had processed this guess, the gray-robed man looked at the burly man and asked softly.

"Brother, should we still go over there now?"

Upon hearing his question, the burly man hesitated. If it was as he suspected, then the five of them going there would be nothing short of suicide.

But he was reluctant to go back like this. Just as the burly man was wondering what to do, a plain voice rang out.

"I advise you not to go, because there's no treasure there at all."

Upon hearing what Pingfan said, the five of them looked at him in astonishment, not understanding why he would say such a thing.

There were clearly unusual celestial phenomena just now, so why didn't any treasures appear?

At this moment, seeing that the people from the four major families had already left, Pingfan's initial excitement subsided.

Thinking that he still had to leave this place and go find them one by one to take revenge, he felt a little depressed.

Just as he was about to leave, he overheard the five people talking and, out of kindness, reminded them that there was no treasure there.

Seeing that Pingfan was about to leave, the burly man quickly stopped him and asked in confusion.

"Fellow Daoist, where are we headed?"

Upon hearing this, Pingfan frowned slightly, turned to look at the burly man, and said coldly.

"What? Are you suggesting I stay?"

As he spoke, Pingfan assumed a fighting stance, coldly staring at the five burly men.

Seeing Pingfan's appearance, the burly man realized that he had been a bit abrupt and chuckled.

"Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand. I merely noticed you were traveling alone and wished to invite you to join us."

Hearing the burly man's answer, Pingfan was slightly taken aback, then looked at him suspiciously.

Even the four people behind the burly man looked at him in disbelief after hearing his words.

Seeing that Pingfan did not respond, the burly man was not in a hurry, but slowly spoke again.

"My name is Xie Yuan. May I ask your name, friend?"
