The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

The crisis was finally over.

In the center of the Defensive Mountain Formation behind the inner mansion of the Dragon House, Li Longling sat, holding the Heavenly Splitting Sword, and ordered the thirty guards around her to support the formation with her.

"Line up!!

" "Yes!!

" As the thirty palace guards shouted in response, streams of spiritual energy were drawn from the ground, spreading to the sky in a radius of hundreds of miles, and hit the circular spirit shield that now covered the entire Dragon House.

At the border of the Defensive Mountain Formation, Ye Anping, wearing a bamboo hat and dark clothes, was leaning against a brick wall ten feet away, looking at Li Longling's face quietly.

He was actually quite worried that Li Longling would be disturbed by what had happened before, but after observing her for half an hour, he found that his worries were unnecessary.

This girl was just like in the game; her body was delicate, but her mind was not.

"Whew-- looks like there's nothing for me to do here.

" As he muttered, Ye Anping stood up and went to take his sister and Liang Zhu back to Duchun City to rest.

What happened overnight had consumed a lot of his spiritual energy.

He was now exhausted both physically and mentally and just wanted to sleep and rest for a few days.

Moreover, he didn't know when the settlement of his 'golden finger' would come.

This time, he killed three demonic cultivators in the Core Formation stage in one fell swoop and also, prevented a Nascent Soul cultivator from causing a disaster.

If his sister was not around when the settlement came, he would probably explode on the spot due to the yang excess.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Ling'er, who was accompanying him, hurried over and asked, "Master Ye, where are you going?

" "To rest.

" "Then, I will take you to...

" "No need, I'm not staying here tonight.

You stay here and take care of your Young Lady.

After the formation closes, take her back to the house to rest.

She's very tired.

" "...

I understand.

" Ling'er seemed to want to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything and silently watched Ye Anping leave.

By the time Ye Anping's silhouette disappeared in the night, the defensive formation also happened to be finished.

Li Longling took a deep breath, stood up with her sword in her arms, and trotted over.

"Master Ye...

" It was Ye Anping who took her hand and led her here.

Now, she wanted him to hold her hand just like before, but after she called out, she didn't hear his response.

"Young Master Ye?

Are you...

here?

" The maid Ling'er looked at her Young Lady and said with difficulty, "Miss, Master Ye said he was tired and was going back to rest.

" "He went back?

" Li Longling was a little disappointed, but she quickly shook her head.

"That's right...

He must be tired.

So many things happened tonight.

Ling'er, send Master Ye some pills for healing wounds and restoring spiritual energy...

" "But Master Ye said he is not staying in the mansion.

" "Then, where did he go?

" "He didn't say...

" Ling'er shook her head weakly.

"Master Ye only said that when you close the Defensive Mountain Formation, I should take you back to rest.

You should be very tired.

" "Ah, so...

" Li Longling thought for a while and asked, "Ling'er, can you describe to me what Master Ye looks like?

Is he good-looking or...

is he rather robust?

Does he have a beard?

His voice sounds like he is a delicate person.

" "This...

I don't know.

" "You don't know?

" "Well, Master Ye had his face covered with a bandage.

I could only see that he had deep purple eyes, and his face seemed to be oval.

After removing the bandage on his face, he should be a very handsome young man.

" "Is that so...

" Li Longling was a little disappointed.

If she had known, she would have just touched Ye Anping's face.

Recalling the touch of his chest in the garden and the scent of his body, she felt like a deer in the headlights.

Now, she was left all alone in the Dragon House.

From a rational point of view, she urgently needed to find someone to manage the future of the Dragon House with her.

And this person would be her future husband.

However, a "husband" was easy to find, but a "true heart" was hard to find.

She could announce through the Western Region and ask all major families for a husband.

No matter what, there would certainly be no shortage of families who would like to be related to her.

But how many of them would treat her sincerely?

How many people wouldn't try to fool her because of her eyes?

And how many of them would be capable of supporting the future of the Dragon House together with her?

There should be very few of them.

Most people would apply for the marriage just to take over her family property, and she couldn't tell what they were all thinking.

In the past, with her father around, she could take her time to choose, but now she no longer had a choice.

For her, marriage and love were not the same.

However, she also wanted to strive for the best marriage.

And now, she met this man.

Although she had only met him twice, she could already tell that Young Master Ye was the one who touched her heartstrings and the one she could trust with everything she had.

Whether this Young Master Ye was beautiful, ugly, old or young, she did not have the slightest dislike for him.

"Ling'er, is there a big family named Ye in the Western Region?

" "Named Ye?

" Ling'er tried to remember, then shook her head slightly.

"Ye is a common name, there should be.

" "Oh...

" Li Longling puffed up her cheeks.

"It would be great if Young Master Ye were not from a noble family.

" "Huh?

Why do you say that, Miss?

" ---If Master Ye was not from a big family, he could think highly of a blind girl like her.

Li Longling thought so, but of course, she would not say it out loud.

She just shook her head.

"It's nothing...

help me go back and rest.

" "...

Yes, Miss.

" ...

Under the moonlit corridor, a figure walked quickly.

Ye Anping's entire body was exhausted, his muscles and bones ached, and he felt that if he sat down or lay down now, he might never be able to get up.

He just wanted to return to Jiang Mansion with his younger sister and Liang Zhu as soon as possible.

In a few days, he also had to put an end to the affairs of Jiang Mansion.

There were quite a lot of spirit stones in Jiang Mansion's warehouse, and it would take him several rounds to get it out without arousing suspicion.

By the time Jiang Yu returned with his master, who was in the Core Formation stage, he and his sister should already be far away.

While his mind was wandering, a pair of small hands suddenly rested on his shoulders.

"Ye Anping!!

" Perhaps because he was too tired, he didn't notice Xiao Yunluo coming to his side at all.

He stopped in his tracks and turned to look.

"Sister Xiao...

weren't you taking care of my sister and the others in the back room?

" "Ah...

They were all fine, so I came to look for you.

" Xiao Yunluo looked away a little guiltily.

It was rare that Sister Pei couldn't move and was not by Ye Anping's side.

How could she not seize this opportunity?

She shook her head and then looked at Ye Anping's eyes.

Seeing the tiredness in them, she quickly stepped forward, lifted his arm, and put it on her shoulders.

"Are you...

are you tired?

I'll hold you up, you can lean on me.

" Ye Anping didn't refuse, mainly because he really didn't have the energy to speak, so he nodded in agreement and half-leaned on Xiao Yunluo's shoulders, letting her support him.

"Hmm.

" But at the same time, he smelled a somewhat unnatural aroma on Xiao Yunluo's body.

"Did you even spray flower-scented perfume?

" "Ah...

" Xiao Yunluo was stunned but quickly retorted, "I didn't spray any perfume specially.

I just use this perfume daily.

" "...

" "It...

smells good, doesn't it?

" "Not that good.

" Ye Anping narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"Your natural body fragrance smells much better.

This one is too strong.

" "My natural...

" ?!!

A blush crept up Xiao Yunluo's neck, covering her entire face in an instant.

"You, you, you...

"
