The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix
Chapter Summary
Although the Imperial Sect incident was a turning point in the game when the main story was about halfway through, he had already had two experiences with the Dragon House and the Moon Shadow Sword Sect. He had been thinking that after sending Feng Yu Die to the Black Star Sect, he would take his sister back to the Hundred Lotus Sect and get engaged to her in front of his father and mother. It seemed that in the future, when he and his sister wanted some private time, they would have to guard th...
The crescent moon hung in the middle of the sky, and the cold moonlight shone over a small town located in the mountains and forests on the border of the Western Region.
On the paper window on the second floor of the inn in town, there was the outline of a young man writing.
Ye Anping, dressed in thin white clothes, sat at the desk in the room.
With a worried face, he frowned at the paper in front of him that had been scribbled and circled beyond recognition.
A hint of helplessness showed in his eyes.
Now, the crisis of the Sword Sect had come to an end, and the incident of the Imperial Sect in the Central Region was about to begin.
However, he was not worried about the Imperial Sect affairs right now.
Although the Imperial Sect incident was a turning point in the game when the main story was about halfway through, he had already had two experiences with the Dragon House and the Moon Shadow Sword Sect.
To formulate a plan was nothing more than spending a little time and effort, and he also had hints to follow.
It was those things that didn't have any hints that would make him feel worried.
Such as...
The marriage to his sister.
About marriage, in his opinion, as long as two people truly loved each other, then the wedding and whatnot were quite meaningless.
However, if he really acted on this idea, although his sister might not care on the surface, she would surely feel uncomfortable in her heart.
He had been thinking that after sending Feng Yu Die to the Black Star Sect, he would take his sister back to the Hundred Lotus Sect and get engaged to her in front of his father and mother.
The thinking was easy, but implementing it was as difficult as writing the plan.
After all, he had no experience in getting married.
Furthermore, in this world, marriage was much more complicated than in his previous life.
Even before going to the wedding hall, there were lots of rules, such as three books, six betrothals, and four rites, choosing a good time and auspicious days, and a lot of other trivial things.
As Pei Lianxue was born into an ordinary family, he wanted to take her back to her birth house and meet her parents, and there were also quite a few ways about that as well.
But all these were fine and could be solved with some time.
The biggest headache for Ye Anping was sending invitations.
He looked at the names lined up on the whole sheet of paper and felt tired.
"On my father's side, there should be about twenty, and my mother's should also have quite a few.
They can just deliver them themselves.
As for my side...
" He counted on his fingers, feeling stressed.
Sister Bai must be invited as she had taken care of him.
Elder Wang and Elder Qi, who were responsible for his and his sister's Black Star Sect entry exam.
There was also Elder Qin, all three of them had to be invited; after all, he and his sister were part of their sect.
...
Then, should he send an invitation to Si Xuanji?
As far as he knew, she probably wasn't aware yet that he knew her identity, so should he write the invitation for Xiao Yunluo's sister?
Should he send an invitation to Xiao Yunluo?
Should he send an invitation to Li Longling?
Should he send invitations to Yun Yiyi and her two sisters?
Should he send an invitation to Feng Yu Die...
better forget about Feng Yu Die.
This matter must happen behind her back and explained later.
Otherwise, it was very likely that they would be prevented from going to the ceremony, and Feng Yu Die would feel compelled to do something crazy, such as stealing the bride.
If she hijacked the marriage in the mid-to-late stages of the game...
If the protagonist kidnapped his wife, wouldn't he, the cannon fodder, become the villain?
"I thought it wouldn't be too much trouble, but now that I think about it...
would it be possible that we can't officiate the marriage?
" Feeling a little helpless, Ye Anping put down the pen in his hand, rubbed his temples, and turned to look at the crescent moon outside the window.
Bang bang--- There was a sudden noise in the next room, and Ye Anping suddenly became more alert.
He remembered that the people living in the next room were two rogue cultivators only in the Qi Refining stage.
After a moment of hesitation, he leaned against the wall and listened.
---"WifeyWifey" ---"Haha...
Hubby, is this your strength when you call for your wife?
Harder!
" "...
" Ye Anping was somewhat speechless.
Of course, it was quite normal to encounter this kind of thing when staying at an inn.
When he was writing, he didn't even hear it.
The soundproofing of this inn was quite good.
Having said that, the three of them had been on the road for the past month and a half and hadn't stopped much to rest, so he had never had the opportunity to explain things to his sister.
And this was a rare occasion, to stay in an inn with such good soundproofing...
After some inner struggle, Ye Anping murmured, "...
Feng Yu Die should be asleep now, right?
" Still hesitating, he put all the papers on the table into the lampstand in the corner of the room and burned them.
He walked quietly to the door, opened a small crack, and peeked out.
Then...
Then, he saw Xiao Tian's face.
Xiao Tian seemed to have been guarding his door.
When he looked out through the crack of the door, she immediately showed a wicked smile.
"Anping~ Where are you going so late?
Shouldn't you rest?
Hehehe...
" "...
" Squeak--- Speechless, Ye Anping pretended nothing happened and slowly closed the door again.
He forgot that this little rascal was here.
Why didn't she stay in Feng Yu Die's head to sleep in the middle of the night?
What was she doing at his door?
"Forget it.
Let's rest.
" Ye Anping lost interest and turned around, ready to lie down on the bed to rest.
However, Xiao Tian walked directly in through the door and shouted noisily.
"Hey!
Don't ignore me!
" Ye Anping frowned as he asked back, "What are you doing in front of my door in the middle of the night?
" "I wasn't...
" Xiao Tian blushed a little but shook her head and hurriedly added, "Well, you were drugged by that golden-haired vixen before and have experienced...
It's been written in the books that after the first time, a man can't help himself for a second time, then a third time!...
" Ye Anping was expressionless.
"So?
" "I'm afraid you'll sneak out to find those kinds of unclean girls.
" Xiao Tian floated onto Ye Anping's shoulder, poked her fingers nervously, and whispered, "I can understand, Anping.
You're already seventeen years old, you're in your prime.
It's normal to have that kind of need.
Especially after your first time, you definitely need it again, and it's not good to hold it in all the time...
" "Um...
" Xiao Tian blinked and asked shyly, "So, will you go to Yu Die to help you?
" "...
" "Don't worry, I will tell Yu Die that this is beneficial to her.
She will definitely listen to what I say.
And then Yu Die will become muddleheaded...
Hee hee hee hee hee...
" ?
Seeing Xiao Tian's silly smile, Ye Anping narrowed his eyes.
"Is this how you act as a servant, tricking your master into randomly sleeping with someone?
" "Aren't you also my master...
" Xiao Tian covered her golden and rosy cheeks.
"And Yu Die is also at the right age.
Proper relaxation is good for her and good for you, not to mention, don't you have too much yang energy?
" Ye Anping rolled his eyes.
"First of all, I'm not interested in her.
Secondly, she doesn't turn me on.
Thirdly, she's not as gullible as you think.
" "...
Secondly what?!
" "In my eyes, she is no different from a female Bodhisattva.
Is there anyone in the world who would have sex with a female Bodhisattva?
Even breaking a hundred wooden fish drums is not enough to make up for this sin.
" Xiao Tian froze in disbelief.
"No way...
Yu Die is so cute, white, and delicate.
Who wouldn't like her?
" Ye Anping sighed and didn't want to talk about this with her, so he ended the topic.
"So...
you came here in the middle of the night to talk to me about this?
" "Well, after all, private conversations are held at night, right?
" Xiao Tian blinked.
"Then, if that doesn't work, you can solve it yourself.
I'll just watch from the sidelines.
" ?
"...
Why are you watching?
" "Oh...
right.
Then, I won't watch.
I'll go out.
" Xiao Tian blinked before hurriedly flying out through the wall.
"...
" Ye Anping stared at the wall she went through for a while, then suddenly looked up at the ceiling.
There, he saw Xiao Tian poking her head out from above again.
!!
After meeting Ye Anping's eyes, Xiao Tian smiled awkwardly.
"Ah haha...
I didn't look!
I really didn't look...
" Then, she retracted her head back into the ceiling.
Ye Anping felt very tired.
He covered his forehead and shook his head.
It seemed that in the future, when he and his sister wanted some private time, they would have to guard themselves not only against Feng Yu Die but Xiao Tian as well.
Kee-kee-ker--- As he was sighing, an eagle cry came from outside the window.
Ye Anping focused his eyes and pricked his ears.
Immediately after, there was a 'bang', followed by Feng Yu Die's cry.
"Ouch!!
" The walls of this inn were really soundproof but her scream still went through.
Something must have happened.
Ye Anping immediately summoned his sword from the storage bag, pushed open the door of his room, rushed toward Feng Yu Die's room, and kicked open the door she had locked with the latch.
Boom--- "What's wrong?
" "...
" There was a big hole in the window inside the room, and Feng Yu Die rolled off the bed while a fat bird was pecking at her forehead with its beak.
Bang--- Feng Yu Die grabbed the body of the fat bird and just smashed it on the floor.
"Where did this stinking bird come from!!
" Ye Anping glanced at the fat bird and breathed a sigh of relief.
He put the sword back into his storage bag and stepped forward to stop Feng Yu Die who wanted to cut the bird into pieces.
"This is the Swift Eagle raised by Yun Jiujiu.
It can travel three thousand miles in a day as a messenger.
" Feng Yu Die was stupefied and turned to look at the fat bird with doubt in her eyes.
How was this thing round as a ball an eagle?
"Eagle?
" "He was fed too much and got a little fat.
" Ye Anping knelt, took off the letter tube and a palm-sized package from Fat Bird's foot, pulled it open, and glanced over it.
The note was written in Yun Jiujiu's heartfelt calligraphy.
"Feng Yu Die, I kicked your master's enemy's 'bird'.
Then, Yun Yiyi and Doctor Zhang of the Sword Sect colluded and cut it off.
You take it as an offer to your master.
I guarantee that it won't grow back.
I said I would help you take revenge, and so I did!
" ?
Reading these words, Ye Anping froze and looked at the package wrapped in waxed paper that came with it, gulping.
What was going on here?
If he understood correctly, Yun Jiujiu kicked her father's 'jewels'...
and then, Yun Yiyi colluded with the Sword Sect's doctor to cut them off?!
Ye Anping was extremely shocked.
He had never expected that it would turn out like this, nor did he expect that the three Young Ladies would be so vicious toward their rotten father.
This was completely unplanned, and it was hard to say what impact it would have.
In the game, after Yun Tianchong went into seclusion again, he died in the process of breaking through the Void Returning stage.
But now that this happened, he might not go into seclusion again.
He was also surprised to see Feng Yu Die holding Yun Tianchong's portrait.
After all, the game did not mention that the man who deceived Master Taixu was Yun Tianchong.
Seeing Ye Anping frozen, Feng Yu Die tilted her head and asked, "Young Master Ye, what did Jiujiu write?
" Ye Anping gave her the letter.
"She helped you avenge your master.
" Feng Yu Die's eyes widened, as she quickly took the letter and read it, slightly puzzled.
"That bird again?
" Then, she hurriedly opened the package that came with Yun Jiujiu's letter.
It contained a glass bottle, and inside the bottle was a mess of blood and flesh.
"What's this?
" Feng Yu Die wrinkled her face.
"Is this the bird?
" Ye Anping sighed, raising his eyebrows.
"Isn't this a nice surprise?
Haven't you been nagging me about the bird?
" "But on the way here, Xiao Tian told me that the bird is quite lovely.
" Feng Yu Die scratched the back of her head with a frown.
"She also said that she would convince you to show me the real thing.
" ?
Ye Anping stiffened when he heard this and turned to look at Xiao Tian, who was now hiding outside the door.
Caught in his line of sight, Xiao Tian shrank back and scrambled to turn and flee.
"Alright...
I'm sorry!!
" Ye Anping pursed his lips, thinking that he had to find a way to teach Xiao Tian a lesson, but he couldn't hit or catch her...
With a sigh, he looked at the glass bottle in Feng Yu Die's hand.
"You can take it to Master Taixu's tombstone to pay homage, but don't throw it away after that.
Keep it for refining a pill, and feed it if you have a spiritual pet in the future.
The medicinal value of this thing should be quite high.
If you want, you can ask Brother Liang to sell it on the black market.
The second gold pill of a cultivator in the Deification stage should be priceless...
If you can auction it on the black market, you should be able to fetch a million or so?
Of course, Brother Liang will probably take a huge commission from you.
" "Oh...
" Feng Yu Die held the glass bottle in both hands and stared at it for a while.
"I still feel uncomfortable.
I did not avenge Master with my own hands.
" "It would be great if you could take revenge now, but your master's enemy is a cultivator in the Deification stage.
If you go by yourself, you won't even get close to him.
" Feng Yu Die pouted and replied awkwardly, "Although it is true, but...
it just doesn't feel right.
" "Well, go to bed early.
We have to travel tomorrow.
" Ye Anping then threw the fat bird out the window.
Bang--- Instead of flying, it crashed into the street.
"...
" Ye Anping poked his head out to take a look, pursed his lips speechless, and simply didn't bother with it.
He turned around and prepared to go back to his room.
When he was about to step out, Feng Yu Die suddenly spoke.
"Young Master Ye, thank you.
" ?
"Thank me for what?
" Ye Anping was confused.
He turned his head and saw the glass bottle she was holding.
He waved his hand.
"If you want to thank someone, thank Yun Jiujiu.
" Feng Yu Die watched Ye Anping close the door and leave, then sighed softly.
Although Ye Anping denied it just now, she still felt that it was he who probably planned the matter secretly.
After all, he could arrange anything.
Ye Anping was a man, but he was not as bad as her master said men were.
Not only he didn't deceive her, but he was even so kind as to help her avenge her master.
Feng Yu Die looked at Yun Tianchong's second gold pill and blinked.
"Well...
Young Master Ye must be a girl at heart, right?
Otherwise, why isn't he as bad as master said?
" After putting the glass bottle into her storage bag, Feng Yu Die jumped back on the bed, wrapped herself in the quilt, and soon fell asleep.
