Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Nie Shuangshuang casually surveyed the surrounding environment. It was clean with no signs of fighting. The vegetation was lush with few signs of being trampled or broken.

Walking to the two people ahead, Nie Shuangshuang bent down to inspect them. Both were male disciples, lying together with their eyes tightly shut, black worm-like things slithering beneath their skin.

”This is due to resentful energy invading their bodies.” Feng Feiyu observed the black worm-like substances moving beneath their skin and stated with certainty. He had seen cases like this many times in his past life.

Sending resentful energy into a cultivator’s body, causing the cultivator to suffer, was a common torture method used by evil cultivators. Feng Feiyu witnessed this many times when following that perverse evil cultivator in the past.

Nie Shuangshuang nodded: ”Indeed, the movement of resentful energy under the skin is a clear symptom of invasion. It seems these two fainted because resentful energy invaded their bodies.”

While speaking, Nie Shuangshuang gestured to Feng Feiyu to help lift them. She then formed a spell gesture, sending spiritual energy into their bodies to circulate and expel the resentful energy.

Once the resentful energy disappeared, the black worm-like air that moved beneath their skin faded, and soon the two woke up.

The two people who woke up looked a bit confused, staring at Nie Shuangshuang and Feng Feiyu, unable to react for a while.

Feng Feiyu waved a hand in front of them: ”Immortal friends, are you okay? You both fainted due to resentful energy, and my mentor saved you.”

Upon hearing Feng Feiyu’s words, the two slowly regained their senses. Their vacant eyes refocused, and they quickly supported each other to stand, solemnly bowing to Nie Shuangshuang.

”Fang Bai of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect thanks the senior for saving my life.”

”Luo Ying of Feihua Valley thanks the senior for saving my life.”

Nie Shuangshuang nodded, maintaining an icy expression as she addressed the Heavenly Mechanism Sect disciple, Fang Bai: ”Judging by your attire, you should be an Inner Sect Disciple of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

How is it that I have never seen you in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect? To which peak do you belong, and who is your mentor?”

Fang Bai replied, ”In response to the senior, I am a disciple seated under Peak Master Yun Tianche of Fangzheng Peak, having just entered the sect not long ago.

There are tens of thousands of disciples in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect. An ordinary Inner Sect Disciple like me is quite insignificant, so it’s natural for the senior not to know who I am.”

Nie Shuangshuang regarded him indifferently and continued to ask: ”Since you’re a newly entered disciple, why did you venture out for training? And why come to Luofeng Mountain, where resentful energy is dense for training?

Did your mentor not warn you, upon leaving the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, that with your cultivation, you shouldn’t venture to places like Luofeng Mountain?”

Fang Bai hung his head: ”To respond to the senior, I was not out for training. I took leave from my mentor to return home to visit my parents.

My parents are merely mortals, with a lifespan of barely a hundred years. I received a letter saying my father was critically ill, and in a moment of anxiety, after obtaining spiritual medicine from my mentor, I left the mountain.

Fortunately, thanks to the spiritual medicine granted by my mentor, my father recovered, and after bidding farewell to my parents, I hurried back to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

On my way back, I accidentally discovered an evil cultivator who had kidnapped a young female cultivator. Naturally, I couldn’t stand by and do nothing, so I fought with the evil cultivator.

The evil cultivator’s cultivation wasn’t high; the same Foundation Establishment Stage as mine. We were evenly matched in combat, but when he saw we were in a stalemate, he fled with the female cultivator. Naturally, I pursued immediately, wanting to rescue her.

To my surprise, the evil cultivator was remarkably fast. Despite my relentless pursuit, he managed to escape into Luofeng Mountain.

Although I knew with my cultivation level, I shouldn’t enter Luofeng Mountain, saving a life was my priority. I couldn’t care less at the moment. Moreover, I thought the resentful energy in Luofeng Mountain had long been sealed and subdued, so I continued in pursuit.

Coincidentally, at the foot of Luofeng Mountain, I ran into fellow Feihua Valley disciple Brother Luo Ying. After I told him about the evil cultivator, Brother Luo Ying joined me in the pursuit into Luofeng Mountain.

We followed the evil cultivator into Luofeng Mountain, reaching a mountainside where the evil cultivator disappeared. We intended to check for any mechanisms on the mountainside.

However, before we could investigate, the resentful energy in Luofeng Mountain suddenly erupted, catching us off guard and invading our bodies.

Realizing the danger, we immediately attempted to escape the mountain, but the resentful energy was formidable. Our cultivation wasn’t enough to suppress it, and we fainted.

Forced into a corner, as we were on the verge of losing consciousness, we released a distress signal, luckily encountering you, senior. Otherwise, I’m afraid we might have perished in Luofeng Mountain.”

After Fang Bai’s explanation, Nie Shuangshuang ceased her questioning and turned to glance at Luo Ying, inquiring of both, ”Do you remember where the evil cultivator captured the female cultivator at the mountainside?”

Fang Bai and Luo Ying nodded quickly. Luo Ying, with urgency on his face, said: ”I remember. Before leaving, I left a unique mark of Feihua Valley on that mountainside.

That place isn’t far from here. The female cultivator might still be alive. I am willing to lead the way for you, senior. Please, save that female cultivator.”

Nie Shuangshuang nodded: ”You two have just been disturbed by resentful energy. Your spiritual power circulation might still be sluggish. Can you hold on while traveling?”

Fang Bai and Luo Ying nodded hastily: ”Rescuing lives is the priority. There is no time to waste. The two of us can manage. There’s no need for you, senior, to worry.”

Nie Shuangshuang said nothing further. Instead, she used Thousand Silk Entanglement to wrap around their waists and directly transported them onto Mo Xuan’s back with a teleport gesture.

To facilitate guidance, Nie Shuangshuang had Fang Bai and Luo Ying sit on Mo Xuan’s head to direct the way, while she and Feng Feiyu stood on Mo Xuan’s back.

Feng Feiyu stood beside Nie Shuangshuang, observing Fang Bai and Luo Ying directing Mo Xuan at the front. He transmitted a thought to Nie Shuangshuang: ”Mentor, don’t you think there’s something odd about these two?”

Nie Shuangshuang lowered her head to look at Feng Feiyu, responded with silence, raised a finger to her lips in a gesture of silence, and then clasped her hands behind her back, watching the front without speaking.

Feng Feiyu paused, unsure of what Nie Shuangshuang thought, but obediently said nothing more. He stood beside Nie Shuangshuang, imitating her stance, his hands clasped behind, and watched the front.

Ruoyang tilted its head, looking around, twitching its little paws. It hadn’t understood a word of what Shuangshuang and Little Yu had just exchanged, its mind filled with curiosity.

However, observing how Nie Shuangshuang had signaled Feng Feiyu to stay silent, Ruoyang sensibly refrained from asking further questions, planning to inquire when not surrounded by others what kind of silent exchange Shuangshuang and Feng Feiyu were having.
