After Ye Chen finished speaking, the atmosphere between the two instantly became awkward.

Pingfan didn't expect him to say it so bluntly, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled and nodded at him.

However, Ye Chen seemed to have forgotten that when Pingfan met Ye Qingyue, it was three hundred years ago.

If Pingfan were truly an ordinary person, how could he have survived until now? He would probably have turned to dust long ago.

Having figured this out, Ye Chen put away the contempt on his face and looked at Pingfan with curiosity, asking a question.

"How did you, a mere mortal, get into this place?"

Looking at Ye Chen's deliberate attempt to distance himself, Pingfan couldn't suppress his curiosity. He shook his head helplessly and said softly.

"I've always been here; I've never left."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen was slightly taken aback and looked at Pingfan with a puzzled expression, not understanding what he meant by saying this. Did he look stupid?

However, when Pingfan saw Ye Chen's expression at this moment, he guessed a little bit about it, but he didn't say anything.

Ye Chen frowned even more as he looked at Pingfan's nonchalant expression, then completely forgot about Pingfan's words.

Ye Chen's face lit up with curiosity again. He looked at Pingfan, then at the Chaos Coffin behind him, and asked in confusion.

"Why are you lying in a coffin? Did you know your time was coming to an end and specially prepare a coffin for yourself?"

Seeing Ye Chen's thoughts jump around so much, Pingfan was speechless for a moment, and really wanted to crack open his head to see what was inside.

However, Pingfan suppressed this impulse, took a few deep breaths, and then looked at Ye Chen and said calmly.

"Hmm, you're really smart, you guessed that."

Upon hearing Pingfan admit it, Ye Chen showed an expression of "I knew it," then sighed softly and offered words of comfort.

"Although I don't know why you can't cultivate, I can only offer my condolences in consideration of the fact that you saved my sister."

Upon hearing this, Pingfan's lips twitched slightly, and he silently chanted in his heart, "Don't get angry, don't get angry, getting angry is stupid."

After calming down, Pingfan looked at Ye Chen and sighed.

"If you have nothing else to do, please leave. I need to go back into the coffin, or I'll die immediately."

Hearing Pingfan's words, Ye Chen was stunned. He didn't expect him to be so weak. His body couldn't take it after just a short time outside.

Ye Chen still had many questions he wanted to ask him, and most importantly, he still didn't know his name.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen hesitated for a moment, looked at Pingfan, and said cautiously.

"I have one more question. Can I leave right after I ask it?"

Seeing Ye Chen's appearance, Pingfan nodded slightly and waited for his question.

Seeing this, Ye Chen pondered for a while, and finally decided what he wanted to ask before slowly speaking.

"My name is Ye Chen. What's your name? If you're still alive, come find me."

Hearing that Ye Chen had thought for a long time but only said such words, Pingfan felt a little more favorably disposed towards him and slowly said.

"It's just an ordinary life. As for the future, I hope there will be a day when I can get out."

Seeing that Pingfan said such a thing, Ye Chen seemed to understand the meaning behind his words. Then, he silently memorized the name Pingfan and said.

"Alright, then hurry back into the coffin, I'm leaving now."

After saying that, Ye Chen glanced at the coffin behind Pingfan again before turning around and leaving the place, flying towards the entrance of the Chaos Mountain Range.

Pingfan watched Ye Chen's departing figure and slowly shook his head. Ye Qingyue and Ye Chen were truly two extremes.

Ye Qingyue has a cool and aloof personality, while Ye Chen has a lively and curious personality.

However, Pingfan didn't think much of it; even twins can have very different personalities.

Once Ye Chen's figure had completely disappeared into the distance, Pingfan climbed the fruit tree beside him, picked a Chaos Origin Fruit, and ate it.

Then Pingfan called Lin Xiao a few more times, and seeing that there was still no response, he lay down in the Chaos Coffin with little interest.

At the same time, Ye Chen only realized what had happened after leaving the Chaos Mountain Range, and then angrily cursed.

"He's just trying to fool me. How could a mere mortal have lived for three hundred years? What a shameless scoundrel! All he knows is how to deceive my innocent and naive self."

However, the people from various forces guarding the entrance to the Chaos Mountains were completely baffled by Ye Chen's vulgar language, wondering who had offended this outspoken fellow.

When the man surnamed Chen, who was guarding the place, saw Ye Chen's appearance, he quickly came to his side and asked softly.

"Young Master Chen, who has offended you? Do you need this old servant to avenge you?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen hurriedly shook his head, then waved his hand and said.

"It's alright, let's go back."

After speaking, Ye Chen walked towards the Ye family courtyard in Chaos Town under the questioning gaze of the man surnamed Chen.

Seeing this, the man surnamed Chen was puzzled, but he could only follow.

After Ye Chen left, the people who remained began to whisper among themselves.

"Is this the younger brother of the Ye family?"

"That's right, it's him. I didn't expect that even he has broken through to the Nascent Soul stage. It seems that even though the Ye family has lost a Mahayana stage cultivator, another Mahayana stage cultivator will probably appear soon."

"The Ye family's return to its former glory is nothing special. What I've heard is that the Xiao family's genius seems to have taken a liking to Ye Qingyue and wants to become her Daoist partner."

……

As the murmurs subsided, fewer and fewer people remained.

After all, there was only one hour left before the entrance to the Chaos Mountains closed. If they still hadn't come out by then, they were probably in grave danger.

The temporary courtyard of the Ye family in Chaos Town.

As soon as Ye Chen returned, he saw Ye Qingyue sitting in the pavilion and rushed over, excitedly saying...

"Sister, guess who I saw inside?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyue shook her head helplessly, then said with a serious expression.

"Xiao Chen, you are now a Nascent Soul cultivator, how come you are still so unsteady?"

Upon hearing Ye Qingyue's reprimand, Ye Chen's excitement instantly vanished, and he muttered softly.

"I know I was wrong, and I will be more careful with my words and actions in the future."

Seeing Ye Chen's appearance, Ye Qingyue sighed softly and said helplessly.

"It's good that you know you're wrong. Now tell me, who did you see inside?"

Ye Chen, who had been looking sullen, immediately became excited again. However, upon seeing Ye Qingyue's gaze, he quickly put on a dignified and serious expression and said...

"It's the person your sister often mentions who saved you back then."

Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, Ye Qingyue's expression shifted slightly, but she quickly regained her composure and asked slowly.

How is he doing now?
