Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

"Feiran, a thief has broken into the manor. We need to come in."

Liu'er recognized the voice of the guard A Liang. She and Yao Feiran exchanged a glance, then quickly dressed and opened the door.

When Ah Liang saw Liu'er, his eyes showed shock.

"Sister Liu is here too? That's great! I thought something had happened to you."

"What's wrong?"

"A martial artist infiltrated the Wei residence, but the leader discovered him, and your house was burned down."

"What?"

Liu'er was startled; what were martial artists doing in her room?

The group hurriedly went to where Liu'er lived, but the house had been burned to the ground.

Yao Feiran thought of Liu'er's fiancé, who might have been implicated. The temperature inside was too high, and Liu'er dared not go closer.

"Sister Liu, is there anything important inside?"

"I put some stored silver there, but it doesn't seem to be missing."

The wooden box was half burned, revealing the silver inside.

Ah Liang cupped his hands and said, "Sister Liu, don't worry, we have already reported to the yamen. Any martial artist who dares to offend the Wei family will be hunted down by the Imperial Guard."

Thank you.

The matter passed peacefully, and Liu'er's luck did not diminish. It seems they wouldn't dare to try again.

When the old man learned that a martial artist had entered the inner courtyard, he was both shocked and furious. He ordered the Martial Court Guards of Cangzhou to search the entire city for the murderer. The whole city was on high alert, and entry and exit from the city were even more strictly controlled. They actually found several criminals.

The matter was dropped after that, but the Wei family had a few more guards and never encountered the thief again.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye, and Yao Feiran found the possibility of learning martial arts. There were martial arts schools in the city, but they required a guarantor from a respectable family background and registration with the government. For someone like Yao Feiran, who was a slave, it was impossible.

"Fei Ran, I've brought you the Fierce Cloud Palm technique you requested."

A boy of about fifteen years old appeared in front of Yao Feiran. This boy was named Xue Yuan and was also a guard of the Wei family.

"Thank you very much, here is twenty taels of silver."

Xue Yuan shook his head: "I don't want it. Didn't you say you just wanted to take a look? Then you can look, and you don't need to pay."

Three years ago, Xue Yuan joined the Wei family's guard team. Once, during martial arts practice, he struggled to execute a move correctly for a long time. Yao Feiran couldn't bear to watch and gave him some pointers. Over time, the two became acquainted.

Xue Yuan came from a well-off family and was one of the most prominent families in Cangzhou. Joining the Wei family's guard team was just a temporary measure; he would participate in the martial arts academy's assessment once he reached the third rank. He was able to obtain some basic external martial arts skills, and when Yao Feiran casually mentioned wanting to take a look, he actually brought them over.

"Where did you come from?"

"It was taken from my grandfather's private treasury. My grandfather went out to gain experience when he was young, and I don't know where he stole it from."

"...Won't you be found out if you take money from your grandfather's private funds?"

"He already knew, and he turned a blind eye as long as it wasn't too excessive. It's just that practicing this kind of external martial art requires a lot of herbal medicine to replenish the body's energy, which costs a lot of money."

"I understand, I'll just take a look."

After returning the book to him, Yao Feiran brewed some medicinal liquid herself and mastered the skill that very night.

A month later, Wei Wanying opened the door and pouted, "Feiran, you're sneaking food again. Why can't you gain weight no matter how much you eat?"

She also likes to eat, but she gains weight too easily. She can't fit into her clothes from last year anymore, and her mother even said a few words to her. But Yao Feiran can eat as much as she wants and never gain weight.

Since Yao Feiran started practicing external martial arts, she has been quite hungry. She can compensate for her physical enhancement with food, which is much more convenient than medicine. It's just not very elegant, though, as she eats meat from time to time. However, Wei Wanying doesn't care about that.

"Third daughter, you're quite cute now, not fat at all."

Wei Wanying blushed, squatted down, and held out her hand, saying, "Break off a chicken leg for me."

"Then remember to wipe the oil off your mouth, or Second Grandma will blame me again if she sees it."

"I know." She was a little unconvinced. "It's understandable that I'm blaming you. Who told you to eat so heartily outside? I couldn't sleep."

"..."

After the two finished eating, Wei Wanying asked, "Is Liu'er leaving?"

Why?

"A Liang asked his mother for Liu'er's hand in marriage, and after consulting with Liu'er, his mother agreed."

Three years have passed since Liu'er's fiancé died, so it's normal for her to fall in love with someone else. Besides, A Liang is already a fourth-rank martial artist and has joined the Imperial Martial Guard, so he has a promising future.

"That's good, Sister Liu has wasted so much time."

"Will you marry Xue Yuanyao?"

"Ahem—I'm so young, what are you talking about?"

She's only 13 years old, that's outrageous. Besides, there are many restrictions on marriage in this world, so it's not very meaningful.

Wei Wanying teased, "I saw Xue Xuan secretly giving you something."

"That's because I wanted to see a martial arts manual, and he showed it to me."

"If you want to see him, he'll obediently give it to you. He's the Xue family's precious darling. He used to be lawless and didn't give anyone face."

"How old are you to be so gossipy?"

Yao Feiran tapped her on the head.

She covered her head and said, "I'm going to tell Mother that you disrespected me!"

"Then you go and tell them, I'll be transferred then."

Wei Wanying pursed her lips and remained silent. She couldn't bear to say anything. If she told her mother, her mother would definitely punish Yao Feiran. She didn't have many friends, and only Yao Feiran would often keep her company and talk to her. She already considered Yao Feiran a friend.

After Wei Wanying fell asleep, Yao Feiran returned to the room and found Liu'er there as well.

"Sister Liu, what are you doing here?"

Liu'er smiled and said, "Third Miss has told me about my situation, so I'll give you something."

Her expression was somewhat desolate. Then, Liu'er took out a jewelry box, and Yao Feiran saw that there was a bracelet inside, which was of decent quality.

"He gave this to me. I can't bring myself to sell it or anything, but I can't keep it with me anymore. I'm giving it to you; you can do whatever you want with it."

"it is good."

Yao Feiran knew that this was something given to her by Liu'er's ex-fiancé. The moment she touched it, she sensed something and quietly took it back.

A few days later, A Liang left with Liu'er.

Yao Feiran held the bracelet and examined it carefully. She sensed that there was something important inside. Remembering that Liu'er's fiancé's family had been wiped out, she realized that they were probably looking for this.

She studied the Qi for a long time but gained nothing. If it weren't for the fact that it would be bad if she broke it, she would have tried to crush it.

It wasn't until she put it on her wrist and washed her hands that the light and shadow fell on the water, revealing a piece of text.

The Mind Method of No Origin.

With a single thought, one ascends nine steps; the Grandmaster understands the will of Heaven.

That's quite arrogant, but to be able to directly reach the Grandmaster level, that must be a top-tier cultivation method.

Yao Feiran memorized the complete mental cultivation method and finally crushed the bracelet into powder.

Just then, the maid Xiaohua rushed over: "Sister Yao, your... parents are here again."

In recent years, Yao Tieniu has visited Yao Feiran many times. At first, Su Yumei agreed to let Yao Feiran's parents in after hearing the steward's report. Later, when she learned that Yao Feiran had fallen out with her parents, she did not allow them to come in and had them kicked out.

However, it's still like a persistent nuisance, and I guess even the person in charge is annoyed.
