Socially anxious me transmigrated to a world of cultivation.

"Hmm~"

Ye Qingyue was awakened by the pungent aroma of meat, and then looked at the scene in front of her in a daze.

A man who looked to be under twenty years old was seen constantly rotating pieces of meat on the grill beside the fire.

Seeing this, Ye Qingyue recalled that before she lost consciousness, she had sensed someone approaching her.

Upon seeing the man before her, Ye Qingyue sat up abruptly and examined her clothes.

After discovering that nothing had been touched, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the man grilling the meat and questioned him in a cold voice.

"Who are you? Where is this?"

Pingfan, who was focused on grilling meat, suddenly heard a sound, paused, and slowly turned his head to look.

Seeing that the woman he had rescued had woken up, he suppressed his nervousness and quickly scratched his head, saying...

"You're awake? We're still in the dense forest of the Chaos Mountains."

Hearing the man's flustered appearance, Ye Qingyue finally felt relieved. She then looked at Pingfan with a scrutinizing gaze and asked.

"You saved me?"

Feeling very uncomfortable under Ye Qingyue's gaze, Pingfan slowly nodded to her.

Seeing that Pingfan had admitted it, Ye Qingyue shifted her gaze away from him and looked around the area.

He was slightly taken aback when he saw a dead fruit tree next to him, and then he noticed a coffin next to it.

This deepened Ye Qingyue's doubts, and when she looked at Pingfan again, her eyes revealed a look of inquiry.

When Pingfan saw Ye Qingyue looking at him again, his heart pounded, and he stammered.

"I...I didn't...have any ill intentions. My name is Pingfan. I don't know...what your name is, young lady?"

Listening to Pingfan's fragmented words, I realized that he and his younger brother were completely different people.

However, seeing Pingfan's appearance, Ye Qingyue, though still having doubts about this place, also sensed that Pingfan was not a sinister person, and said softly.

Ye Qingyue

Upon hearing Ye Qingyue's name, Pingfan silently repeated it three times in his heart, and then blurted out his true feelings.

"Ye Qingyue? Not only is she beautiful, but her name is also lovely."

After saying that, Pingfan realized something was wrong and quickly covered his mouth with his hand, then carefully observed Ye Qingyue's reaction.

Ye Qingyue was momentarily stunned after hearing Pingfan's words.

Although the phrase "ordinary" was rather flippant, it came out of his heart and made Ye Qingyue feel no discomfort whatsoever.

Realizing her own thoughts, Ye Qingyue quickly coughed lightly, then frowned and asked, noticing that there was no trace of spiritual energy on Pingfan's body.

"You're a mortal? Then how did you get in? And how did you save me?"

Upon hearing this, Pingfan, after a moment's thought, told her how he had saved her.

However, he hesitated when considering whether returning to the realm of the ordinary meant being a mortal, and how he came to be one.

However, when Ye Qingyue heard that Pingfan had used the Soul-Returning Grass to bring her back to life, she was shocked and exclaimed.

"What? You mean you saved me with the Resurrection Grass? Do you even know what kind of environment the Resurrection Grass needs to grow?"

Hearing Ye Qingyue ask this question, Pingfan thought she didn't believe him, so he didn't say anything more and stared at the pieces of meat on the grill.

Seeing that Pingfan ignored her, Ye Qingyue was speechless. Although her questioning was impolite, it was hard not to have doubts based on her description of the Soul-Returning Grass in ancient books.

After all, the chance of a single Soul-Returning Grass growing is only one in ten thousand, provided it contains chaotic energy and is constantly nourished by swamp gas.

How could someone as young and ordinary as Pingfan, a mere mortal, obtain the Soul-Returning Grass?

It seemed impossible, but seeing Pingfan's expression, Ye Qingyue couldn't help but wonder if she had misunderstood Pingfan.

Suddenly, Ye Qingyue remembered something: this was the Chaos Mountain Range, the place where the immortal with the Chaos Body from the Snow Sword Sect had fallen.

Moreover, the Chaos Mountains have complex terrain, and places that meet these conditions may indeed exist.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingyue slowly stood up, walked to sit opposite Pingfan, and said softly.

"I was being rude. After all, you are the one who saved me; how could I doubt you?"

Upon hearing Ye Qingyue's words, Pingfan looked at her face, which was so close to his, and was momentarily stunned, his heart pounding wildly.

Seeing that Pingfan was staring intently at her, Ye Qingyue was furious and was about to explode when she noticed that Pingfan's face was gradually turning red.

Instantly, Ye Qingyue's anger subsided, replaced by a rapid heartbeat.

Ye Qingyue hadn't expected the man in front of her to be so innocent; he would blush just looking at her.

"cough~"

Seeing that Pingfan was still looking at her, Ye Qingyue coughed lightly, trying to break his daze.

Sure enough, after hearing Ye Qingyue's light cough, Pingfan instantly came to his senses, quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at her, and kept shouting in his heart.

"How embarrassing! How could you stare at a girl like that?"

"But she's really beautiful, she perfectly matches my aesthetic standards."

Just as Pingfan was still lost in thought, he suddenly heard Ye Qingyue's voice reminding him.

"The meat you're grilling is almost burnt."

Upon hearing this, Pingfan quickly looked up at the pieces of meat on the grill.

Sure enough, the meat chunks started to turn black and charred. He hurriedly took the meat chunks off and was about to put them in his mouth when he remembered that there were still people here.

Thinking of this, Pingfan looked at the pieces of meat that had been taken off, and saw that one piece looked quite good. He handed it to Ye Qingyue and said...

"Here, take this. You were injured earlier, and although you're mostly recovered, you still need some nutrition."

Hearing his ordinary words, she saw that he simply handed her the piece of meat without looking at her.

And at this moment, Pingfan actually stopped stuttering, and couldn't help but want to tease the boy in front of him.

But then I thought to myself that I was over two hundred years old, how could I possibly flirt with a man?

Moreover, it was a complete stranger. Given Ye Qingyue's personality, she really couldn't do it, and could only think about it in her heart.

Pingfan noticed that the piece of meat he had offered was not being taken by her, so he gently shook it again, signaling her to take it quickly.

Sensing Pingfan's intentions, Ye Qingyue reached out her delicate hand and took the piece of meat from his hand.

However, when they received the piece of meat, their palms touched slightly.

In an instant, both of their hands quickly retracted, and the piece of meat fell to the ground.

Pingfan savored the sensation from just now, his heart pounding wildly. He secretly glanced at Ye Qingyue, only to find that she was also secretly looking over at him.

In an instant, their furtive gazes met, and then, as if struck by lightning, they hurriedly lowered their heads.

At this moment, Ye Qingyue's heart was pounding as if it were about to leap out of her chest. This was an emotion she had never experienced before.

A moment later, while eating a slightly dark piece of meat, Pingfan asked, pretending to be calm.

What brings you here?
