Quick Transmigration: Finding a Successor for a Sect in JX3

After joking around with Wei Wuxian for a while, Hongfei asked, "Are you two interested in this sect?"

Wei Wuxian shook his head and said, "I don't want to be a Taoist priest. I can't stand those rules."

Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "I don't really want to join this sect either, mainly because I feel a bit awkward about it."

Hongfei nodded and said, "Okay! Let's go find other sects then, there are plenty of sects anyway."

Hong Fei then brought Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng back to her private residence, and then returned to the Burial Mound in the world of The Untamed through the teleportation array.

Hong Fei fought her way out of the mass grave again, asked for directions in Yiling, and headed towards Kuizhou. If Hong Fei's calculations were correct, Xue Yang was only 14 years old at the moment. He hadn't completely turned to the dark side yet, so Hong Fei wanted to go and save him.

Hong Fei remembers that in the story, Xue Yang lost a finger at the age of 7, became a notorious villain in the Kuizhou area at the age of 15, and wiped out the entire Chang family at the age of 17. In the end, he was captured by Xiao Xingchen and his group and sent to Jinlingtai, where he was handed over to the scoundrel Jin Guangshan. All these circumstances shaped the utterly wicked Xue Chengmei.

Hong Fei arrived in Kuizhou and stood on the street, suddenly feeling lost. How was she supposed to find Xue Yang? She had absolutely no clue. She couldn't just grab anyone and ask them if they were Xue Yang! Hong Fei felt a headache coming on.

Just as Hong Fei was wandering the streets of Kuizhou, feeling troubled, a clear child's voice came from not far away, accompanied by the sounds of children laughing and playing. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of children surrounding a little boy holding a sugar painting. The little boy smiled brightly, his eyes sparkling with liveliness and innocence.

Hongfei's heart stirred. She carefully observed the group of children, watching them sing nursery rhymes with innocent joy. She slowly approached the children, trying to make her tone gentle as she spoke, "Hello, children. Can I ask you for a favor?"

One of the little boys looked up at the beautiful older sister who had suddenly appeared, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes, and then answered confidently, "Big sister, is there anything we can help you with?"

Hongfei was secretly delighted, but she didn't show it on her face. She just smiled and said, "My name is Hongfei, and I'm just a passerby. I'm looking for someone but can't find him. Can you help me find him? Whether you find him or not, I'll treat you to candy, okay?"

When the children heard there was candy, they excitedly surrounded Hongfei and asked, "Big sister, who are you looking for? How can I help you find them?"

Hongfei took out Uncle Chadan's candied hawthorns from her backpack. She had hundreds of these in her backpack, even though she didn't usually like them. They'd just been sitting there, and now it was perfect to take them out.

Hongfei handed each child a candied hawthorn skewer and then said to them, "You can ask other children for help. All you need to do is loudly repeat one sentence throughout this Kuizhou city. What is this sentence called?"

Hongfei looked up and around and saw a large restaurant across the street called Fanqinglou. She looked down at the children and said, "You can call out 'Xue Yang, a big sister has invited you to eat at Fanqinglou.' If you bring her along, there will be other pastries for you to enjoy."

Hongfei made a promise with the children, and the children scattered to find their friends, shouting the phrase Hongfei had taught them all over the streets.

After the children left, Hongfei went into Fanqinglou, asked for a private room, and had a banquet prepared. She told the waiter, "If a man named Xue Yang comes later, bring him to the private room."

Hong Fei had arranged everything and was quietly waiting for Xue Yang to come to her.

Two hours passed, and it was getting dark when Hongfei finally saw Xue Yang.

When Xue Yang entered Fanqinglou, his face showed a mixture of doubt and curiosity, clearly drawn by the "big sister treating us to dinner" that the children were talking about. He looked around, trying to spot the "big sister" in the crowd, until a waiter led him through the bustling lobby to a quiet private room.

Hearing the voice, Hong Fei looked up, a gentle smile playing on her lips. She stood up, straightened her clothes, and greeted Xue Yang. "Young Master Xue, I've long admired your name. I am Hong Fei, and I've been waiting for you here for quite some time." Her voice was clear and melodious, like a mountain spring, instantly breaking the silence in the private room.

Xue Yang was slightly taken aback, then came to his senses. He looked Hong Fei up and down, a complex light flashing in his eyes. What did such a wealthy and elegant girl want with him? "Miss Hong Fei? We don't seem to know each other. May I ask what brings you here?" His tone was somewhat wary, but more so, it was filled with curiosity about this mysterious girl who had suddenly appeared.

Hong Fei smiled slightly and gestured for Xue Yang to take a seat. "Young Master Xue, there's no need to be nervous. I mean no harm. I've simply heard of your esteemed reputation for a long time, and since I'm fortunate to be in Kuizhou today, I'd like to invite you for a simple meal and make friends." As she spoke, she poured Xue Yang a cup of tea, her movements practiced and elegant.

Seeing this, Xue Yang did not lower his guard, but he did not refuse again. He sat down calmly, took the tea and took a sip.

"Why is Miss Hongfei looking for me? We shouldn't have any connection, right? Besides, I don't think I have any reputation yet." Xue Yang put down his teacup, his gaze falling on Hongfei again, trying to glean more information from her expression.

Hong Fei chuckled softly, her eyes sparkling with barely suppressed amusement. "Young Master Xue really doesn't need to be so guarded. Actually, the reason I invited you here today is purely to make friends. As for other matters, they are certainly a good thing for you."

Upon hearing this, Xue Yang's heart tightened, but he maintained his composure on the surface. "Oh? What is it that requires you to go to such lengths to find me, young lady? Is this something that only I can handle?"

Seeing that Xue Yang was very nervous and wary, Hong Fei suddenly felt like teasing him. She said mischievously, "This is something only you can do; no one else can."

Xue Yang was even more nervous, almost jumping up and running out the door. He forced himself to remain calm and asked, "What does the young lady want me to do? And it's something I can do? The young lady thinks too highly of me."

Hong Fei suppressed a laugh and said with a serious expression, "This matter is very simple. You come with me to a place, and you will know when we get there."

Xue Yang's face darkened. He glared fiercely at Hong Fei and gritted his teeth, saying, "What if I don't go?"

Hong Fei deliberately revealed a wicked smile, and Xue Yang said, "If you don't go, then I'll have to do it myself. Will you come with me by yourself, or will I tie you up and take you there? It's up to you, Young Master Xue."

Xue Yang stared intently at Hong Fei, not making a move. Hong Fei was suppressing her laughter until her stomach ached, but she still had to maintain a villainous expression. Hong Fei pinched her thigh tightly with her right hand, afraid that she would burst out laughing.
