'Ugh… Where am I…?' Yuan slowly opened his eyes to the sound of water splashing beside him.

He looked around once his eyes adjusted to the bright sunlight, and to his surprise, there was a large river beside him.

'What the… How did I get here? I was just at the pagoda…'

Yuan stood up a moment later, but he immediately noticed something different about his body.

"My cultivation base is gone!" He exclaimed in a shocked voice.

Suddenly, another voice resounded, responding to his words, "Are you still dreaming, Tian Yang? You're not even a cultivator yet, how can you possibly have a cultivation base?"

"Eh?"

Yuan turned to the sound of the voice to see a pretty young girl sitting underneath a tree with a scroll in her hands.

"Meng Lili?" Yuan subconsciously muttered her name even though he had never met her before.

'Wait… Did she just call me Tian Yang? So I am seeing his memories right now?'

Now that he had an idea of his situation, Yuan decided to play along.

However, it was not as though he could actually control his body freely.

Yuan suddenly began walking towards this young lady named Meng Lili.

"How are you feeling, Meng Lili? Are you excited about tomorrow? Nervous?" Yuan asked her.
