The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Under the red sky, there was a light as small as a bean in the forest.

In the small tent built temporarily on the side of the cave, Xu Mulan sat on the bed with her upper body naked and a blood-stained white cloth wrapped around her chest, while a female doctor bandaged her wound.

"Commander Xu, although the injury is not too serious, the demonic energy in the Eastern Region is overwhelming.

It is better to retreat and cultivate yourself in peace in the next few days.

""Okay...

""Then, I will take my leave.

""Okay.

"After the doctor left the tent, Xu Mulan let out a long sigh, pulled her clothes back on her shoulders, and then took out a jade slip engraved with the emblem of the Hundred Lotus Sect from the storage bag, holding it in her hand.

The jade slip was thrown to her by Ye Anping when she met him just now.

Because there were other Snow Guards on the way back, she didn't have time to look at it.

Xu Mulan stood up and walked to the entrance of the tent.

She lifted the flap and peeked outside.

Seeing that there was no one around, she felt relieved and sent her spiritual consciousness into the jade slip to read it.

[Commander Xu, Sun Juehu led the Cold Country to invade the demonic cultivators in the east but this time, her intention is not to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect, but the Red Moon Matriarch.

][After the Immortal Family kills Yu Yan, she will want to settle the thousand-year family feud with the Red Moon Matriarch.

][I asserted that Sun Juehu would most likely make you her personal attendant in the future.

This move is not a reward, she just wants to use you to stop me.

That's why I left you this jade slip, to warn you.

][The hatred between the Red Moon Matriarch and the Empress is a family feud and has nothing to do with the Cold Country.

][If you believe me, you must escape to a solitary temple on the top of a peak about three hundred miles south of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

There is a formation left by an ancient cultivator in the temple, which can block Sun Juehu's spiritual sense.

Wait in the solitary temple until the dust settles, then you can return to the Northern Region safely and reunite with your sister.

】[I know that you are a kind-hearted person and loyal to the Cold Country, but please don't fight me for Sun Juehu.

】Xu Mulan read the contents of the jade slip word by word, gradually frowning as countless doubts arose in her mind: —Her Majesty wanted to kill the Red Moon Matriarch?

—And use her to stop Ye Anping?

And the last two paragraphs, did they mean that she should flee the Cold Country immediately and save herself?

Xu Mulan thought about these questions, but her mind became more and more confused.

She recalled Ye Anping and the group of demonic cultivators before, and her face gradually showed embarrassment.

Ye Anping saved her life twice, this was a fact.

She also believed in Ye Anping from the bottom of her heart.

If he asked her to help with something or even promised her body, she would be obliged to do so.

But now Ye Anping wanted her to defect?

Her Xu family's ancestors had been the Snow Guards of the Cold Country for generations!

Wasn't this asking her to renege on her clan and defy her ancestors?!

Also, how would Sun Juehu make her a personal attendant?

Although Cold Country was established by relying on the imperial system of the ordinary world, there was a natural difference between cultivators and mortals.

As the Empress of the Cold Country, Sun Juehu was a powerful cultivator, she did not need any "personal attendants" at all.

Therefore, although the Cold Country had the position of "Emperor's personal attendant", this position would only be given in one situation.

That is, the previous emperor was about to die and the heir's cultivation was insufficient.

In this case, the previous emperor would select the person he trusted the most and give him or her the position of "personal attendant" to protect the heir when he was still young and had low cultivation.

However, since ancient times, the immortal emperors of the Cold Country had been at least in the late stage of Deification when they ascended the throne.

Therefore, this position of "personal attendant" had not been conferred once in ten thousand years.

Xu Mulan let out a breath, feeling that Ye Anping must have thought too much, so she withdrew her thoughts and put the matter behind her, preparing to go to the Spirit Gathering Array next to her to condense energy to heal her injuries and have a good rest.

But, it was at this time.

Tap tap——"Commander of the Snow Guards, Xu Mulan, come out of the tent to receive the order!!

"The voice of Chen Yin, the Imperial Adviser, came from outside the tent.

Xu Mulan held her breath as her mind went blank, and she hurriedly prepared to go out.

But after taking a step, she came to her senses, turned around, looked at the jade slip that Ye Anping gave her again, and froze in place.

"...

"Chen Yin's order was conveyed, but the tent remained silent.

After a while, probably seeing Xu Mulan's lack of response, Chen Yin cleared his throat and asked, "Commander Xu, are you injured and unable to walk?

Can I enter the tent?

""Ah...

wait a minute.

"Xu Mulan took a deep breath, hurriedly put the jade slip on the table back into the storage bag, then lifted the tent flap and walked out.

Outside, Chen Yin held a scroll with a golden dragon seal in one hand, waiting for Xu Mulan to come out and kneel on one knee before calling,"Her Majesty has ordered.

Xu Mulan, Commander of the Snow Guards has made great contributions in the war against demonic cultivators, has set a good example of internal discipline, and has been loyal to the Cold Country.

From now on, Xu Mulan is removed from the Snow Guard Commander position and is hereby appointed as the Empress' personal attendant.

From now on, you should work hard for the Sun family.

This is Her Majesty's decree!

""...

"Xu Mulan nodded and knelt on the ground, her face dull.

She couldn't help but recall the contents of the jade slip again in her mind.

Seeing her like this, Chen Yin raised his eyebrows slightly.

"What?

Commander Xu, are you unwilling to take this position?

As the Empress' personal attendant, you'll be on equal footing with me, the Cold Country Imperial Adviser.

I remember that you have a sister?

After the war in the Eastern Region is over, your sister can also receive honors...

"Xu Mulan swallowed her saliva, then stepped forward and received the scroll from Chen Yin with both hands.

"...

Yes, I accept the order and I thank Her Majesty for her grace.

""This appointment should have been given by the Seventh Office, but now that we are in the Eastern Region, the etiquette is naturally not that strict.

After returning to the Northern Region, Her Majesty will hold a banquet to personally confer the honor to you.

""Yes, sir!!

"Xu Mulan nodded and waited for Chen Yin to turn into a beam of spiritual light and return to Sun Juehu's cave not far away.

She then stood up, slightly staggering, and held the scroll with the dragon seal pattern in both hands.

She stood rooted to the ground.

Probably because Chen Yin's voice was too loud just now, several Snow Guards in the tents nearby also heard it, and now they came out and surrounded Xu Mulan.

"Commander Xu, have you been demoted or promoted?

What is the Empress' personal attendant?

Why haven't I heard of it before?

""It is said that only those who have been personally chosen by Her Majesty can be appointed.

It seems to be the same as the Imperial Adviser and can inherit a high position.

When Her Majesty is not around, they can mobilize the cultivators of Cold Country at will.

" "So powerful...

"...

Xu Mulan looked at the girls around her in silence, then said, "Okay, okay!

Weren't you guys injured by the demonic cultivators?

Go back and heal your wounds.

""Yes~ Commander Xu!

Hehe...

""...

"These people were all brought up by Xu Mulan, and that's why they were really happy for her after hearing that she was appointed the "Empress' personal attendant".

However, Xu Mulan herself was not happy at all.

After she frowned and urged the girls to go back to their tents, she sighed and looked up at the moon in the sky that was dyed red by the demonic energy.

"Young Master Ye, what on earth is this...

"… … As the clouds rolled, more than twenty flying swords flew close to the treetops in the forest below, and the low calls of birds and beasts could be heard from time to time.

Feng Yu Die and Gu Mingxin followed at the end of the team, one on the left and one on the right, capturing all the wind and grass movements around them.

Up in the sky, Xiao Tian and Xue'e were like two radars, constantly scanning any living creatures within a hundred miles with their spiritual sense.

At the front of the team, Ye Anping, wearing a bamboo hat, looked up thoughtfully at the horizon ahead, at a tower that looked as small as a bean.

To be honest, before coming to the Eastern Region, he didn't expect to meet Xu Mulan.

The main thing was that he hadn't expected Xu Mulan to form her Nascent Soul yet.

It seemed that after he returned to the Western Region from the Northern Region, Xu Mulan should have been transferred directly to Cold Moon City and obtained a lot of pills and natural materials for cultivation, which enabled her to successfully form her Nascent Soul.

This indirectly proved one thing.

—He made a mistake.

When he was in the Northern Region, he was afraid that Xu Mulan would be targeted by Sun Juehu, so he left in a hurry at that time.

Now it seemed that Sun Juehu had seen through the relationship between Xu Mulan and him.

It must be said that she was really an old witch.

But Ye Anping was not surprised.

This was Sun Juehu's method.

When she and her ancestors were trying to control someone, their favorite method was to take that person's relatives, friends, and loved ones as hostages to coerce the person to work for them.

Before, Sun Juehu used him to threaten Si Xuanji.

And now, she wanted to use Xu Mulan to threaten him.

… … "Young Master Ye, our Lady is in the cave at the bottom of the mountain ahead.

"The ghost-faced demonic cultivator beside him pointed ahead and reminded him.

Hearing this, Ye Anping stopped thinking about it and looked at the indicated place.

He nodded and followed him on his sword before landing at the entrance of a cave hidden by a restriction.

Mo Chi Ling seemed to know they were coming early.

After they landed, she rolled her wheelchair out of the cave.

The eyes under the bandage looked at Ye Anping quietly.

After a moment of silence, she gently asked the ghost-masked demonic cultivator to retreat into the cave first.

"Red Ghost, take your people back to the cave to rest.

You've worked hard.

" "...

Yes, Milady.

" After sending the people away, Mo Chi Ling pursed her lips slightly, and looked at Feng Yu Die and Gu Mingxin, "Miss Feng and Sister Gu, you should also go into the cave to rest.

I want to talk to Mr.

Ye alone.

" Feng Yu Die didn't say anything but glanced at Ye Anping.

After seeing Ye Anping nod, she pulled Gu Mingxin to the cave entrance.

"Blacky, let's go!

Master Ye asked us to get out of the way!

""I can walk, don't pull me.

""Then walk!

"Watching the two enter the cave, Mo Chi Ling chuckled and teased.

"It seems that Little Gu and Miss Feng get along well?

""Really?

"Ye Anping was a little uncertain, and he glanced at Xue'e and Xiao Tian who flew down.

It seemed that they had quarreled again when they were in the sky just now, and now Xue'e was chasing Xiao Tian with a sword.

"Golden fool!

Stop right there!!

""Stop right there when you say so?!

Am I stupid?

"… … "Sigh—" Ye Anping slowly exhaled, somewhat helpless, and then looked at Mo Chi Ling.

"What do you want to say?

""I received a jade slip sent back by Red Ghost before, saying that Xu Mulan, the commander of the Cold Country Snow Guards, was chasing them all the way, but you, Master Ye, suddenly came out and saved that commander.

"Ye Anping shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Narrowing his eyes, he said sarcastically, "Haha, Senior Mo, you really have a reliable network.

I have been traveling with Red Ghost, and I have never seen him send you a jade slip.

""Ah...

Don't get me wrong, this is not because I don't trust you.

If I was able to survive until now after escaping from the Heavenly Demon Sect, it's all thanks to my network efficiency.

""I didn't say anything.

"Mo Chi Ling narrowed her eyes and smiled.

She considered his words before carefully asking, "So, you attach great importance to Commander Xu?

""I know what you want to say.

" Ye Anping replied with a small shrug, "I'm not the kind of idiot who will forget the big picture because of one person.

I let her go because I don't think it's necessary to kill her.

""Well...

" Mo Chi Ling lowered her eyes slightly and cautiously asked, "If you have second thoughts, why don't you leave this matter to me?

"Ye Anping thought for a while before he understood what she meant.

In other words, if he agreed now, Mo Chi Ling would most likely send someone to kill Xu Mulan for him.

"No need.

""Really?

"Ye Anping shrugged again and smiled.

"Senior Mo, your only goal is Yu Yan.

Xu Mulan's affairs have nothing to do with Yu Yan.

You don't need to intervene in this matter.

"Mo Chi Ling replied softly, "I also want to help you, Mr.

Ye, solve your problems...

""Really, no need.

I have already arranged this matter.

Senior Mo, you should focus on the affairs of the Heavenly Demon Sect...

Where is the Black Star Sect now?

""They have passed the Blood Demon Gorge and will reach the Heavenly Demon Sect in about fifteen days.

""Then, we'll wait for now.

" Ye Anping stretched.

"I have been traveling for so long, I also want to have a good rest.

"Mo Chi Ling narrowed her eyes, smiling.

"Of course.

I have prepared a bedroom for you.

Please follow me to the room.

"Ye Anping looked at her, then shook his head and joked.

"Come to think of it, Senior Mo, you are much older than me, right?

""Do cultivators still care about age?

" Mo Chi Ling pursed her lips and glanced at him.

"Does my voice sound old, or do I look older?

""Hehe...

Older than the last girl who called herself a little girl in front of me.

"Mo Chi Ling puffed up her cheeks and complained.

"...

Mr.

Ye really doesn't know how to please girls.

How can you say that in front of a girl?

""Hehe...

"
