Ye Feng walked into the dense forest to the north. The lush flowers, plants, and branches obscured his vision. Yun Shuang'er still felt it wasn't safe, so she picked up her clothes from the bank and walked to a large rock near the mountain wall before she started to get dressed.
A moment later, Yun Shuang'er walked out.
"Ye Feng, come over here."
Ye Feng hid in the forest, his heart pounding, worried that another white-browed tiger with hanging eyes would jump out and eat him.
Hearing Yun Shuang'er's voice, he immediately darted out of the dense forest and ran over, wagging his tail.
Yun Shuang'er sat on the edge of the pond, wiping her hair with a cloth.
Her movements were gentle and practiced. Looking at the side profile of this beautiful Fairy in the moonlight, Ye Feng's heart fluttered again.
He sighed inwardly, thinking that this woman could only be from the heavens.
Yun Shuang'er continued to wipe her hair as she said, "You really don't remember anything?"
Ye Feng nodded repeatedly.
Yun Shuang'er snorted and said, "Serves you right. In the past, with Yulong Shishu around, you could be a bit unruly, but Yulong Shishu has been missing for over three years, and you still don't know how to rein yourself in. It's no surprise that you've ended up in this state."
Yulong Shishu?
Ye Feng got another useful piece of information. It seemed his relationship with this "Yulong Shishu" was very special. Could he be his Master?
He asked, "Miss, what is your name?"
"Yun Shuang'er, the seventh Disciple under Immortal Master Yu Ying of Yunhai Sect."
"So it's Miss Yun, no, I should call you Shuang'er Senior Sister... Do I have a Master?"
"Isn't your Master Yulong Shishu?"
Ye Feng thought, 'Sure enough.'
"Shuang'er Senior Sister, after I crawled out of the grave, I lost all my memories. Could you give me a brief introduction? I'd be very grateful."
Yun Shuang'er looked at Ye Feng before her. In her memory, this boy had never been so proper. Usually, he was a ne'er-do-well, hanging out with a bunch of shady friends, specializing in doing despicable things that benefited himself at others' expense. Sometimes, he even harmed others without benefiting himself, truly a bizarre individual in Yunhai Sect.
Perhaps this amnesia wasn't a bad thing for Ye Feng, but a new beginning.
So Yun Shuang'er said indifferently, "I can tell you, but I need to ask you one more time, did you really not see anything tonight?"
"Of course not! I was resting in the mountains, and suddenly that big tiger chased me, so I escaped here. Thankfully, Shuang'er Senior Sister was here, otherwise I would have become that big tiger's supper by now!"
Seeing Ye Feng's serious and righteous expression, Yun Shuang'er no longer doubted him.
She said, "You'd better be telling the truth. If you're lying to me, I'll make sure you die a very ugly death."
"How could I! I, Ye Feng, swear to the heavens, I absolutely did not deceive Shuang'er Senior Sister, otherwise may lightning strike..."
Just as he said this, suddenly, the white crane that had gone to chase the giant tiger flew back and landed beside Yun Shuang'er.
Ye Feng also took the opportunity to stop his oath.
For a long time afterward, Yun Shuang'er introduced this world and Ye Feng's identity to him.
They were currently in the Shenzhou Continent.
As Ye Feng had guessed, this was a world primarily focused on Cultivation, where Humans, demons, spirits, and monsters coexisted, with the Human Race holding absolute dominance.
The Shenzhou Continent had a history of millions of years, and the trend of Cultivation was extremely prosperous.
Years of development had made the Cultivation System of this world very complete. Dao, demonic, Buddhist, shamanic, ghostly, and other Cultivation factions all had complete Cultivation Systems and Cultivation Ranks.
From lowest to highest, there were ten levels in total.
They were: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Hundred Meridians, Royal Sky, Royal God, Reversion, Shen Ji (Spirit Severing), Heaven-Human, Void Transformation, and Tian Zhi Realm.
The towering giant peak before them was named Xingluo Peak.
It was named thus because there were over three hundred peaks of varying sizes suspended in the air around it, resembling a dense scattering of stars.
This was also the main headquarters of the Yunhai Sect, a major immortal Cultivation sect in the Human world.
The Yunhai Sect had been established for over four thousand years. The Mind-Cultivation Technique they Cultivated was the "Cloud Sea Art," which was a top-tier immortal Cultivation Cultivation Technique in the Human world. Cultivating it to its extreme could reach the tenth level, the Tian Zhi Realm.
Ye Feng was a twenty-seventh generation Disciple of the Yunhai Sect, sixteen years old this year, and his Master was Yu Long Shangren. He should now be at the third-level Hundred Meridians Realm.
More than three years ago, his old lecherous Master, Yu Long Shangren, said he was going to the mortal world to temper his mind and save fallen women, but he disappeared like a yellow crane, his whereabouts still unknown.
With his Master gone, Ye Feng's status within the Yunhai Sect plummeted. He went from an Inner Sect Disciple to a Medicine Garden boy guarding the Medicine Garden.
As for the place he crawled out of last night, it was the Scattered Burial Grounds on the shady side of Luoxia Peak, west of Xingluo Peak.
Gradually, Ye Feng clarified many key pieces of information.
He had a Master, who was missing.
He had a job, a Medicine Garden boy.
He had Cultivation, the third-level Hundred Meridians Realm.
"Shuang'er Senior Sister, you said earlier that I was murdered and buried in the Scattered Burial Grounds. Do you know who the killer is?"
"I don't know." Yun Shuang'er raised an eyebrow. "Your reputation in Yunhai Sect is extremely bad. Like your Master, you cheat, swindle, eat, drink, gamble, gather for gambling, are addicted to theft, and harass girls. You've offended many people. How would I know which young hero was acting on behalf of heaven?"
"Uh? Acting on behalf of heaven?"
Ye Feng's expression instantly stiffened.
From Yun Shuang'er's words, the Original Owner not only had character issues, but seemed to be an out-and-out bully.
What was this situation?
He, a dignified chosen one, had Transmigrated into a villain?
Ye Feng found it a bit hard to accept for a moment.
Seeing Ye Feng sitting on the stone in a daze, with a bewildered and pained expression, Yun Shuang'er did not disturb him.
She now completely believed that Ye Feng had crawled out of a grave.
After experiencing the baptism of life and death, Ye Feng lost his past memories and couldn't accept his previous actions; this was a manifestation of self-repentance.
In truth, how could she know that Ye Feng was secretly cursing the Original Owner in his heart at this moment?
In a major immortal Cultivation sect, why engage in all this messy stuff instead of properly Cultivating the Dao?
You died, so you died. I just arrived, and I need to live well, learn Sword Control, and even woo Fairies.
You offended so many people and did so many bad things during your life. Aren't you just digging a pit for me?
Gradually, the eastern sky began to lighten with a fish-belly white.
It was dawn.
Yun Shuang'er stood up and said, "I'm going back. What are your plans?"
Ye Feng also recovered his senses.
He thought for a moment and said, "Shuang'er Senior Sister, can you take me up the mountain?"
Yun Shuang'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"You can."
Ye Feng was overjoyed: "Thank you, Shuang'er Senior Sister, wait for me..."
Under Yun Shuang'er's suspicious gaze, Ye Feng ran to the small stream north of the pond, moved a few stones, and pulled out his clothes, which had been soaking in the stream all night.
"I'll put on my clothes first, I'll be quick..."
Yun Shuang'er's pretty face was as ugly as it could be at this moment.
She walked towards Ye Feng step by step, her pretty face filled with murderous intent.
Ye Feng didn't notice Yun Shuang'er's abnormality and continued to put on his clothes.
Suddenly, Yun Shuang'er said, "How are your clothes here? Didn't you say you came here by fleeing in panic after being chased by a tiger?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng was startled.
He looked up and saw Yun Shuang'er radiating cold killing intent all over her body.
He repeatedly backed away, stammering, "Uh... Shuang'er Senior Sister, listen... listen to me quibble... explain! I... I didn't see anything last night, really, I didn't peek at you bathing..."
At this moment, Ye Feng cursed himself inwardly for being a complete idiot with cement for brains.
Why on earth did he go and get those dirty clothes that had been soaking in the stream?
Wasn't this just telling Yun Shuang'er that he had been here all along?
Just then, a white shadow flashed before his eyes, and then Ye Feng felt himself flying.
That's not right, hadn't he not reached the Realm of Royal Sky flight?
The next moment, a sharp pain shot through his abdomen.
He flew back a full seven or eight zhang before crashing heavily to the ground.
His Qi and blood churned within him, and a mouthful of vital blood spurted out.
Yun Shuang'er retracted her long leg.
With a crisp sound like a Phoenix's cry, her immortal sword was unsheathed.
The three-foot sword body actually glowed with dazzling white light.
"You stinky brat! How dare you peek at me... I... I'll kill you!"
As the long sword thrust forward, Ye Feng's pupils constricted. He was so terrified that his soul left his body, and his liver and gall split.
His eyes rolled back, his head tilted, and he actually fainted.
The tip of Yun Shuang'er's white immortal sword stopped less than two inches from Ye Feng's throat.
Her expression was shifting between clear and cloudy as she gazed at the young man on the ground.
As the favored daughter of Yunhai Sect, she was extremely intelligent.
She had already guessed that this brat Ye Feng must have been secretly peeking at her bathing.
Thinking that her body had been seen completely by this brat, she was filled with shame and anger.
Her pearly teeth bit her lower lip, and several times she wanted to thrust out her immortal sword.
But in the end, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
About two minutes passed, and Yun Shuang'er said bitterly, "Ye Feng, just you wait! We're not done yet!"
After speaking, she put away her long sword, used Royal Sky to leap onto the back of the crane, and flew towards the front mountain of Xingluo Peak.
