The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

December website update

The blood moon hung high in the sky like a hook.

The gate plaque with the three words "Slaying Immortals City" engraved with spiritual cinnabar seemed to be falling, and corpses of demonic cultivators were scattered under the gate tower. Many Black Star Sect Foundation Building cultivators put scarves on their faces, piled them together, and turned them into ashes with fire talismans.

"Work quickly! Burn these demonic cultivators, and remember to throw the corpses of the Toxic parasite cultivators into the pit outside. There are Seniors in the Core Formation stage to help deal with them. Be careful of those poisonous insects that pretend to be dead."

"Understood..."

… 

There was a saying among demonic cultivators: Slaying Immortals in the west, Heavenly Sorrow in the south, and Spirit Prisoner in the north.

Thousands of years ago, the immortals invaded the Eastern Region, and Heavenly Sorrow City blocked the siege of Nangong Cheng and his tens of thousands of Imperial Sect cultivators with only a few thousand demonic cultivators.

However, this Slaying Immortals City dealt a heavy blow to Immortal Yun Jian, who was in the limelight at the time and had fought his way here from the south. Half of the nearly thirty thousand immortal cultivators from the Southern Region that Yun Jian led were killed or injured, and Yun Jian himself was injured by the sword formation in this city and became a virtual spirit.

After the immortals were defeated in the battle of the Slaying Immortals City, the demonic cultivators took the opportunity to counterattack, which almost led to the immortals being forced out of the Eastern Region again.

It could be said that the turning point of the last war between the immortals and the demonic cultivators was in this city.

However, this time, Lei Wanjun, with three subordinates of the Demon King and about ten thousand immortal cultivators, only took twenty-five days to break through the city gate and kill all the demonic cultivators in the city.

At this moment, the immortal cultivators in the city had finished clearing the streets and were now toasting and chatting, enjoying the celebration banquet after the victory.

Because the demonic beasts were also among them, their cheerful cries could be heard everywhere in the streets and alleys.

Meow~~ Meow~~

Hum~~ Hum—~

However, in the midst of the city's jubilation, there was a girl with long black-and-white hair, walking alone on the street. The lonely look on her face was out of tune with the lively environment around her.

"Sigh..."

Carrying a small paper umbrella, Si Xuanji slowly walked down the middle of the street. She was sighing every five steps and shaking her head every ten steps, looking like a frail lady who was sad about the passing of time.

If you ask her why she showed such a sad expression after winning the battle?

"It's itchy! It's itchy!!"

A croaking voice was heard.

Si Xuanji glanced at the parrot on her shoulder. "How can I be like a lovesick girl who feels lonely just because I haven't seen my lover for a few months?"

"Yes, yes, yes!! Yes, yes, yes!"

The parrot nodded, then tilted its head and clicked its tongue again. "Lovesick old woman? Lovesick wife... Gah—! Just kidding!! Just kidding!"

"..."

Si Xuanji didn't take the parrot seriously and just plucked a few of its feathers before letting go. She looked up at the crescent moon that was dyed red by the demonic aura of the Eastern Region, but her attention was suddenly attracted by a man and a woman dressed in the Black Star Sect uniform.

The two looked like a cultivator couple. The man was in the Core Formation stage, and the woman was only in the Foundation Building stage.

The man held the woman's hand, his face full of sorrow, and said, "A Ling, I heard from the Seniors that after Slaying Immortals City, the Heavenly Demonic Sect is next. I don't know if I can come back alive..."

However, the woman put her finger on his lips, frowned, and scolded him. "You are such a jinx, don't say that."

Then, she touched her belly. "I've been pregnant for two months..."

"Huh?! What..."

"Yes. After we destroy the Heavenly Demon Sect, we will ask Elder Liu for leave and find a beautiful cave in the Western Region to recuperate for a year or two... Hehe—"

"Okay!! I promise you!!"

...

Looking at the affectionate couple, Si Xuanji couldn't help showing a little envy in her yin-yang eyes, and she sighed again. "Sigh—"

Just as the two said, the Heavenly Demon Sect was next, and she and Yu Yan would almost inevitably fight a deadly battle. And, she had to deal with not only Yu Yan but also the old woman Sun Juehu.

This time, the Eastern Region's crusade against the demonic cultivators was actually a trap set up for her by Sun Juehu.

No matter how she thought about it, if the immortals could really defeat the Heavenly Demon Sect and Yu Yan as Ye Anping had assured her, Sun Juehu would definitely turn the guns on her immediately, to avenge the murder of her father.

If it was before, she would not care, and naturally would not fall for this trap.

But, Ye Anping said it was okay.

So, she came out of the Western Region all the way to this hellish place.

Si Xuanji withdrew her gaze from the two people and lowered her eyes, continuing to walk forward along the street. Looking at the street ahead, she was somewhat scared.

In the Western Region, she could know everything through her Star Reading Art. 

But here, in the Eastern Region, the demonic spirit of heaven and earth sealed her star interpretation ability, and directly turned her into a little deaf and blind person.

The "known" that she was used to, became "unknown".

Dinglingling...

Dinglingling...

The footbells on her ankles rang lightly with her steps.

Si Xuanji looked down at her embroidered shoes, counting her steps.

"One... two... three..."

When she walked twelve hundred steps, two familiar voices came from the front, and Si Xuanji looked up again.

Ye Ao and Kong Yulan, wearing the uniforms of the Hundred Lotus Sect leaders, were waiting in front of the original City Lord's Mansion, pacing back and forth with a mix of worry and impatience on their faces.

Restless, Kong Yulan asked, "Why hasn't anyone come out yet? We have been waiting for almost an hour."

"Elder Lei is very busy. He must be busy now, how can he have time to receive us?"

"But... our Ping and Miss Xiao have an engagement, and we are..."

"Hey! Yulan, this love affair is a small matter, and the battle between immortals and demonic cultivators is a big matter... Let's wait a while, and Elder Lei will definitely receive us after he is done."

... … 

As she listened to them talk about this, Si Xuanji was a little surprised.

She remembered that when she set out from the Black Star Sect, she asked Qiu Shuirou to send a jade slip to the Hundred Lotus Sect, informing them that they did not need to follow the Western Region immortal sects to the Eastern Region.

After all, there would inevitably be casualties in this war.

Although the Hundred Lotus Sect had gradually grown in recent years, recruited many disciples, and also expanded its territory a lot, except for those who came from the Justice Division, there were still mostly small cultivators in the Foundation Building and Qi Refining stage and only a few Elders in the Core Formation stage.

Cultivators on these levels, let alone fighting with demonic cultivators, might not even be able to withstand the demonic energy of the Eastern Region.

And the most important thing was that she was practically deaf and blind in the Eastern Region, unable to use her Heavenly Eye.

What if Ye Ao and Kong Yulan were unfortunate enough to encounter some powerful demonic cultivators and something unexpected happened, how could she meet Ye Anping later?

With a pout, Si Xuanji walked over slowly, tilted the small umbrella on her shoulder upward, pretending to be a young lady, and spoke, "Master Ye, Madam Kong, why are you two here?"

The cold and indifferent voice suddenly came from behind, startling Ye Ao and Kong Yulan, who turned their heads in shock.

After staring at Si Xuanji's yin-and-yang eyes, Ye Ao remembered that when he and Kong Yulan went to the Black Star Sect to find Ye Anping, who had just joined the sect, several years ago, it was this girl who showed them the way.

"Hmm? You are... Miss Xuanji? You have already reached the Core Formation stage..."

"I am honored that Patriarch Ye still remembers me." Si Xuanji smiled and nodded. "But... I remember that Black Star Sect should have sent a jade slip to the Hundred Lotus Sect to tell them they did not need to come to the Eastern Region to fight the demonic cultivators... Patriarch Ye, what are you two doing here…"

"Ah..." Ye Ao touched the back of his head, smiling awkwardly. "Heh, isn't this a bit embarrassing? If we don't come to fight the demons and prove our worth as immortals, the others will say that we are greedy for life and afraid of death, and we only took advantage of that kid Ping's fame, which is not good."

"So..."

"So what can I do? As the Patriarch, I have to follow along." Ye Ao stroked his beard and continued, "When attacking Slaying Immortals City, my wife and I killed six Core Formation-stage demon cultivators together... Ahaha—"

Hearing this, Si Xuanji was scared.

When Lei Wanjun broke through Slaying Immortals City, the city was in civil strife, which seemed like Heaven's help, but in fact, during the twenty-five days of the siege, many immortals and demonic cultivators were still killed and injured.

She had no idea that these two were...

If Ye Ao and Kong Yulan had fallen in the battle of Slaying Immortals City, their remains might not even be found at that time...

Si Xuanji considered her words, then advised, "The Heavenly Demon Sect is next, and there will inevitably be a fierce battle. Patriarch Ye and Madam Kong, you should not stay here, it's better to return to Brilliance City and then to the Western Region as soon as possible. Anping is the fiancé of the Young Lady of the Black Star Sect. If something happens to you two..."

Ye Ao laughed as he waved his hand. "It's okay... Our Ping and Little Pei are not in the Eastern Region. It's not right for us, as Elders, to hide behind..."

Ye Ao didn't notice, but Kong Yulan's eyes lit up immediately as she squeezed him away and reached out to grab Si Xuanji's hand, then brought her face close.

??

Si Xuanji shrank back in confusion. "Mrs. Kong..."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Miss Xuanji, you just called our Ping, 'Anping'? Hmm?~~"

"..."

Si Xuanji blinked in confusion, while Kong Yulan's smile became wider and wider.

Beside her, Ye Ao broke out in a cold sweat and interrupted her. "Yulan… you…"

"Shut up, let me ask…" Kong Yulan glared at him before asking, "Could it be that Miss Xuanji also likes my Anping?"

"Yulan, this…"

"Hey… what's the matter? Didn't Elder Wang say before that Anping has too much yang energy? And Miss Xuanji's sister, Young Miss Xiao, and our Ping are already engaged. If Miss Xuanji also marries him, it will be a double happiness~"

Embarrassed, Si Xuanji looked away and said, "Mrs. Kong, this…"

But Kong Yulan didn't let her speak and continued, "It's okay, if you like Anping, it's fine. If you are worried that Anping will not agree, don't worry. I will speak to him as his mother and make sure he agrees."

Si Xuanji hesitated but thought it seemed quite interesting. She lowered her head with a blush on her face. "Then… I would like to thank you, Madam Kong."

Ye Ao, who had been cast aside, and the parrot, who didn't say a word throughout the whole process, had almost identical expressions on their faces at this moment, with mixed feelings that were hard to describe.

Ye Ao looked at Si Xuanji and felt that his son had too many romantic interests. Each one was more beautiful than the last, and they were all daughters of wealthy families...

However, he didn't come here to find a wife for his son.

"Ahem--"

Ye Ao coughed twice, interrupting the two of them, and asked, "Miss Xuanji, we actually came here to ask about Anping... There has been no news about him for several months, and we, as his parents, are really worried... I wonder if you..."

"So that's what happened." Si Xuanji replied with a smile. "Anping, under the order of my master, sneaked into the Heavenly Demon Sect undercover. Patriarch Ye, don't worry, he's fine."

"Is that so... Then, I'm relieved. After all, the Eastern Region is full of demonic cultivators, and although this kid is powerful, this... Well~ Thank you, Miss Xuanji, for telling me. "

"You're welcome~" Si Xuanji nodded. "Then, I will visit the Hundred Lotus Sect in person after the matter in the Eastern Region is completed. Patriarch Ye, you and your wife should return to Brilliance City first and stay in a safe place to wait for the good news... I will not accompany you for now, as I have important matters to report to Elder Lei."

Ye Ao did not say much but bowed and watched Si Xuanji walk through the gate of the City Lord's Mansion with her umbrella. Then, he said a few words to Kong Yulan, and they left together.

Si Xuanji walked into the mansion alone, and after noticing that the two had left, a sly smile appeared on his face. "Hehe..."

"Double happiness. Double happiness."

Si Xuanji patted the parrot's head happily and rewarded it with a few spiritual rice grains, but then she composed herself, took out the Matriarch's robe and shawl from her storage bag, and draped them on her shoulders before walking toward the main hall in front.

Inside the hall, all the Elders of the Black Star Sect were gathered around a sand table to discuss the route of the impending attack on the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Hearing the sound of footbells coming from the door, Lei Wanjun, Mr. Qi, and everyone else immediately shut their mouths and bowed. "Greetings, Matriarch."

"No need to bow."

Si Xuanji answered calmly and went to the sand table. Finding the sand table a bit high, she stood on tiptoe, then glared at Lei Wanjun and simply floated up with the body control spell. Then she took out a sword-shaped token from her storage bag and stuck it into the sand table at the main peak of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

"Send a message to the sects in the Western Region. Seven days later, we start the fight against the Heavenly Demon."

"Yes, Matriarch."

… … 

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away.

Seven immortal ships lined up in three or four teams, hiding their bodies behind the clouds, and slowly sailed thousands of feet above, in the sky.

The cabin was silent, and the canopy was filled with the fragrance of women.

Ye Anping lay on the bed, his handsome face a little paler than three days ago. He stared at the ceiling carved with stars and moons, and his mind was already filled with worries about his future life.

He looked left and right at his shoulders.

His sister and Yunluo used his shoulders as pillows, sleeping with satisfied smiles on their faces.

"Finally… I can rest… Huh..."

Ye Anping let out a long sigh, and he gradually emptied his mind, wanting to have a good sleep.

However, his body was sticky, and his sister and Yunluo were now hot. He couldn't fall asleep at all when they were hugging him.

After opening and closing his eyes several times, Ye Anping finally held his breath, opened his eyes, and decided to go out for some fresh air.

So he carefully moved his numb arms from under the two girls' necks, quietly got off the bed on Xiao Yunluo's side, and tiptoed out of the room with his clothes in his arms.

After putting on his clothes in the corridor, Ye Anping leaned against the wall with some fatigue and prepared to go up to the deck along the long corridor of the cabin.

However, when passing by Feng Yu Die's room...

"Young Master Ye... Young Master Ye..."

?

Could it be!!!

Two soft moans coming from the room instantly awakened Ye Anping's confused mind.

He had already walked past the door of the cabin, but after hearing the two gentle calls, he took a deep breath and walked back. Squinting his eyes, he carefully pushed the door open a crack, looking inside.

As it turned out, he imagined wrong.

Feng Yu Die was lying on the bed, curled up in a ball, and sucking her thumbs like a baby. No one knew what she was dreaming about.

Ye Anping breathed a sigh of relief for no reason, and after closing the door, he continued to walk up to the deck.

The cold wind from a thousand feet high in the sky helped him blow away the colored thoughts in his mind. Ye Anping walked to the bow and looked toward the sea of dark clouds in front of him. After a while, a flying sword landed from the immortal boat nearby. 

Liang Zhu, holding a jade tablet in his hand, looked around and saw his Sixth Brother standing at the bow in the wind. He sneered and walked over directly. "Hmph... Old Six." 

"Well..." 

Liang Zhu didn't say much, just threw the jade slip in his hand to him and said, "Black Star Sect sent the order to attack Heavenly Demon Sect in seven days." 

"Seven days..." Ye Anping took the jade slip, looked at it, and then frowned slightly. "It's a little faster than I expected." 

"Is there a problem?" 

"Not a big problem." 

Ye Anping turned and looked at the cabin. He originally wanted to reprimand Xiao Yunluo later, but it seemed that he would have to wait until the matter was settled. 

He said, "Brother Liang, please inform my sister and Yunluo when they wake up. I'll take Feng Yu Die and Gu Mingxin to the Heavenly Demon Sect first. Tell them to go back to Red Moon Matriarch with the disciples of the Black Star Sect and not come after me."

Liang Zhu rolled his eyes at him. "Go and tell them yourself."

"Okay... Then, I'll leave a letter. Brother Liang, help me pass it on. I'll rest for an hour, take a shower, and leave..."
