Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Nie Shuangshuang, with her hands behind her back, looked at Qin Meng, who was a bit cautious following Pei Ling: ”Still a child, youth only comes once. As long as it doesn’t affect cultivation, indulging a little more won’t hurt.

When they grow up, these interests can no longer be found. Did Vice Sect Master Pei bring the disciple here today to attend the auction?”

Pei Ling nodded with a smile: ”Although Meng’er is still young, I thought it would be best to prepare her lifebound magical treasure now to avoid being rushed in finding materials later.

It’s just right that the Treasure Pavilion is hosting an auction this time, I came over to see if there are any good materials, and if so, to bid on them in advance for backup.

I didn’t expect Master Nie to be here, seeing how Master Nie never liked to take disciples in the past, I thought your disciple would suffer hardships under you. But I didn’t expect you’ve taken a disciple; Master Nie seems to be a good teacher.”

Although speaking of Nie Shuangshuang spoiling her disciples, Pei Ling is actually equally doting on his little disciple.

Having just taken her in, he is already concerned about the lifebound magical treasure for Golden Core formation, preparing materials so early shows how much emphasis is placed on this disciple.

Nie Shuangshuang and Pei Ling exchanged pleasantries in casual conversation; although Nie Shuangshuang spoke little, she was still capable of socializing. Nie Shuangshuang was previously cold and indifferent in appearance, but she spoke when necessary, just less.

Therefore, the chat between Nie Shuangshuang and Pei Ling did not contradict Nie Shuangshuang’s former image. While the adults chatted, Qin Meng and Feng Feiyu observed each other in boredom.

Speaking of Qin Meng’s feelings towards Feng Feiyu, they were truly up and down. Initially, Qin Meng wanted to apprentice under Nie Shuangshuang.

There were two reasons: firstly, Nie Shuangshuang is female, and so is she, having a female master would be much more convenient than a male one.

The second reason is that Nie Shuangshuang is recognized as the number one demon genius of the Four Great Immortal Sects, a late-stage Soul Emergence Great Cultivator at thirty-five years old, a rarity in a millennium.

Despite rumors portraying Nie Shuangshuang as a cold-faced Yama, there were many who wanted to apprentice under her, Qin Meng was no exception.

But Qin Meng didn’t expect Nie Shuangshuang to choose Feng Feiyu as an apprentice; Feng Feiyu, who is lanky and small.

Clearly fifteen or sixteen years old, yet looks more like twelve or thirteen, despite good Immortal Roots, other aspects were too ordinary, even too weak.

Especially when climbing the Ten Thousand People Platform, seeing Feng Feiyu climb among the last few, making a fool of Nie Shuangshuang, Qin Meng had no good impression of Feng Feiyu.

Although she was not apprenticed, Qin Meng still admired Nie Shuangshuang immensely; she felt Feng Feiyu’s aptitude was not worthy of such a good master.

But unexpectedly, Feng Feiyu introduced energy into his body within three days, raising Nie Shuangshuang’s prestige, shaking the entire Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

This rare occurrence was a genius with exceptional perception appearing in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, isn’t that worth celebrating?

Upon hearing this news, Qin Meng felt complicated, thinking no wonder Master Nie, such an amazing person, would take him as an apprentice, his perception is indeed extraordinary.

In cultivation, perception is more important than Immortal Root, for good perception facilitates enlightenment. One moment of enlightenment is worth years, even decades, of cultivation for those with Heavenly Spirit Root.

Upon learning that Feng Feiyu had introduced energy into his body, Qin Meng secretly competed, relentlessly cultivating, and is now at Qi Refinement level one.

Qin Meng’s cultivation speed is indeed rapid, even making Pei Ling smile for days, continually praising Qin Meng’s cultivation speed.

Originally, Qin Meng thought her perception couldn’t compare to Feng Feiyu, but her cultivation speed was surely competitive. Yet upon meeting, she realized she couldn’t ascertain his presence.

This only occurs when the other has higher cultivation, meaning while she was proud of her cultivation speed, the other had already moved ahead, possibly reaching the second level, leaving Qin Meng feeling a bit discouraged.

Unlike Qin Meng’s complex thoughts, Feng Feiyu felt good upon seeing Qin Meng, as he recognized her.

Feng Feiyu had a brief encounter with Qin Meng in a past life, Qin Meng was one of the few who left a good impression then.

In a previous life, Feng Feiyu visited a Secret Realm, an ownerless realm which would have been open to others, but disciples from major sects feared the dilution of treasures.

They didn’t dare stop aristocratic family disciples, so they blocked loose cultivators outside, prohibiting them from entering the Secret Realm, Feng Feiyu was stopped at the time.

It was Qin Meng, leading a group of sect brothers and sisters, who scolded disciples from aristocratic families blocking loose cultivators, letting Feng Feiyu and them enter the Secret Realm.

When Qin Meng did this, she didn’t even notice how many loose cultivators there were, yet Feng Feiyu remembered Qin Meng, rare to find a good impression of a major sect’s disciple.

When climbing the Ten Thousand People Platform, Feng Feiyu recognized Qin Meng, but Qin Meng clearly did not recognize him, and as she was always with her master, Feng Feiyu had no chance to greet her.

Unexpectedly meeting Qin Meng at the Treasure Pavilion again made Feng Feiyu feel a connection, so he took the initiative to greet her.

”Senior Sister Qin, hello.” Feng Feiyu called her that, not knowing if Qin Meng was older, but using senior titles as a courtesy when ages aren’t clear.

Qin Meng replied: ”Brother Feng, hello.” Then Qin Meng fell silent, as did Feng Feiyu, who wasn’t adept at conversation.

Seeing Qin Meng uninterested in chatting, he couldn’t help but touch his nose, unsure of what to say next.

And Qin Meng, in a secret embarrassment, felt she lost a master and was inferior, embarrassed at being proven wrong about the other’s aptitude, felt awkward talking to Feng Feiyu.

As their direct atmosphere grew more awkward, Nie Shuangshuang and Pei Ling eased the tension between both.

”Feiyu, the auction is about to begin—pack up your things and let’s go.” Feng Feiyu obediently waved his hand, storing everything in the Heaven and Earth Ring, bid goodbye to Pei Ling, and left with Nie Shuangshuang.

”Meng’er, follow me to the auction venue. If you like these little things at the Treasure Pavilion, I’ll take you shopping after the auction ends.”

Pei Ling thought Nie Shuangshuang’s earlier words were true, during youth, one should indulge in things suited for that age, have fun, and laugh.

As the saying goes, flowers bloom again, but youth cannot be regained. Once grown past this age, such youthful joy cannot be recaptured.
