Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

After Bai Shuyao tortured people to death, the Bai Family would naturally help deal with the aftermath. Since those killed by Bai Shuyao were children from ordinary families, those people simply didn't dare to stand up to the Bai Family. The Bai Family would compensate them with some gold coins, and the families of the deceased could only accept the compensation helplessly.

Of course, there were also some strong-willed ones who refused the money and wanted to seek justice for their kin, so they went to the City Lord Mansion to lodge a complaint. Unfortunately, no one ever survived the journey to the City Lord Mansion. Any family that refused compensation was driven to ruin by the Bai Family.

Tan Shuangshuang chose Bai Shuyao because she was solitary, and solitude meant less contact with others, thus reducing the risk of exposing flaws while impersonating her.

Another reason was that Bai Shuyao, unlike the rest of the Bai Family who stayed at the mines, would come out every few days, making it easier for Tan Shuangshuang to observe Bai Shuyao.

Bai Shuyao had a habit of wandering around outside and then idling in lively places. Outside, Tan Shuangshuang could easily observe Bai Shuyao, and even when Bai Shuyao returned home, Tan Shuangshuang could transform into a guard of the Bai Family to secretly observe her.

Since Tan Shuangshuang timed it well, the Bai Family never discovered that a guard at their home would sporadically play the role of twins.

After observing Bai Shuyao for a few days and ensuring she was familiar with her habits and even some minor gestures, Tan Shuangshuang made her move.

Because Bai Shuyao was violent and disliked people entering her room or getting close without her invitation, no servant dared to enter Bai Shuyao's room unless she summoned them. Thus, Tan Shuangshuang smoothly infiltrated Bai Shuyao's room.

Tan Shuangshuang remembered that the Tan Family's investigation mentioned a recent incident involving Bai Shuyao, wherein Bai Shuyao bound and gagged a maid who had angered her, locking her in a small box.

After imprisoning the maid, Bai Shuyao had the box placed in her courtyard until the maid starved inside and emitted a foul odor, then had the box discarded. Such cruel, perverse acts were outrageous!

Tan Shuangshuang utterly despised Bai Shuyao's disregard for human life. So, after knocking Bai Shuyao unconscious, she tied her up, gagged her, and stuffed her into a small box, mirroring what Bai Shuyao had done, leaving it in Bai Shuyao's room.

Tan Shuangshuang knew that even if the servants outside noticed an extra box in Bai Shuyao's room, they wouldn't dare to check it for fear of angering her.

Although Bai Shuyao was gloomy and solitary, she loved bright red clothes. The red outfits paired with her perpetually gloomy aura, and her tendency to stand silently in corners, gave off a truly chilling effect at a glance. Thus in the Bai Family, nobody really liked her.

Tan Shuangshuang first used the Transformation Technique to become Bai Shuyao, wore Bai Shuyao's clothes, and looked in the mirror. Inside was an ostentatiously stunning beauty, attesting to Bai Shuyao's remarkable appearance.

Tan Shuangshuang raised her eyebrows, recalling Bai Shuyao's usual demeanor. She closed her eyes, and upon reopening them, the stunning beauty in the mirror was gone, replaced by a gloomy woman who made others uncomfortable at first glance.

Tan Shuangshuang curled her lips, and the woman in the mirror immediately displayed a sinister smile, evoking a sense of horror. Satisfied, Tan Shuangshuang nodded—it was flawless, perfect.

Pushing the door open, Tan Shuangshuang boldly walked through the Bai Family estate with Bai Shuyao's face. All the servants they encountered shrunk to the side in fright, wishing they could become invisible.

Tan Shuangshuang hadn't walked very far when four Warrior Level guards approached Bai Shuyao, looked straight ahead, greeted her, then stood behind Bai Shuyao. These were the guards assigned by the Family Head of the Bai Family to escort Bai Shuyao to and from the mines.

It could be said that besides ignoring and refusing to meet this granddaughter, the Family Head treated her exceptionally well, giving her anything she wanted and handling all troubles she caused, never punishing the troublemaking Bai Shuyao.

With Bai Shuyao's gloomy demeanor, Tan Shuangshuang walked silently, and when she reached the Bai Family's entrance, she happened to encounter the chief steward of the Bai Family, who was smiling and leading in a youthful, gentle-looking man with a naturally smiling face.

Seeing the man, Tan Shuangshuang was momentarily stunned, but she quickly regained her composure and continued her role as the uninterested Bai Shuyao, proceeding without stopping, silently and without expression, not even glancing, leading the guards outside. Though outwardly calm, Tan Shuangshuang was actually rattled, even shocked, because she recognized the young man!

The young man was named Yan Xing, although he appeared youthful, he was actually over a hundred years old. It was only due to his profound cultivation that he maintained a youthful appearance.

In her past life, Tan Shuangshuang had met Yan Xing once while with Liang Ziqian. Back then, Yan Xing was one of the managers of the Wanyou Trading House in Baiyue Country!

Yan Xing was notoriously cunning, daring to do anything for profit, yet was so well-connected that even the Imperial Family of Baiyue Country couldn't touch him because the Wanyou Trading House was so vast, the Imperial Family couldn't discern how many resources it possessed.

If asked what the most powerful force in the world is, it must be the nation. All ordinary people must attend state-run academies for study, ultimately serving their country. This created a massive base that no family or sect could match.

Moreover, the nation also employed many cultivators with superb skills. It was said that the most cultivated of all the Baiyue Country's champions was the legendary Martial King!

Besides the nation, there were the Major Sects. These sects also recruited disciples every year, and although they recruited fewer people than nations, they selected them based on merit, though fewer, yet elite.

Unlike nations who had to cater to everyone who wanted an education, leading to significant resource consumption, sects required fewer resources, enabling sect disciples to receive better resources, thus the best could become even better.

Thus, although sects did not match the power of nations, everyone's first response was to join a Major Sect. It was only if rejected by the sect would they consider attending nation-run academies.

Below the sects were the large families, such as the Tan Family. Certainly, beneath these were smaller families, the most common powers within a nation.

The Wanyou Trading House, however, was an exception. No one knew who founded the Wanyou Trading House, but it existed in every nation. The Wanyou Trading House sold a vast array of things, from Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to ordinary goods to all sorts of secret information—practically everything was available.
