The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Chapter 252 - Brother Didn't Get To Enjoy Himself



As the moon set and the sun rose, the melodious chirping of small birds in the forest marked the beginning of a new day.

A yellow oriole flew into the cavern, cocked its head as if it had found something, and hopped over to a small mound to peck at the soil on it.

Chirp chirp...

Boom---

The next moment, a lean arm suddenly broke out of the ground, startling the oriole into jumping three feet away, spreading its wings, and flying out of the cave.

Buried underground, Ye Anping held his breath and forcefully pushed his head up. He broke through the gravel and dirt above, pulling his body out of the hole.

The sunlight coming from the entrance of the cave shone on his face, rendering him unable to open his eyes for a while. He waited a little before climbing out of the hole and looked around in confusion at the temporary hiding place he had made last night.

Yesterday, to escape from those Sword Sect disciples pursuing him, he hid inside the mountain rocks with his sister and sealed off the entrance. Then, he fell asleep groggily while holding her in his arms.

But why...

Ye Anping turned to look at the square hole behind him that looked like a tomb pit and then looked at the burnt granite at the entrance of the cavern. After some brainstorming, he roughly guessed what had happened here while he was sleeping.

The disciples happened to discover this cave, used spells to force open the rock wall, and his sister dug a hole to hide him underground. She then led those people away and returned to the Night Tide Peak.

Although there was indeed nothing wrong with his sister's method, burying her partner in the ground after their first night together...

This was probably unprecedented.

With a hint of helplessness, Ye Anping walked out of the cave and came to the side of the cliff. He gazed at the winter morning scenery of Moon Shadow Sword Sect, trying to wake up his groggy mind.

Unfortunately, perhaps because he couldn't fully enjoy yesterday's activities, he inexplicably remembered his sister's unconscious bird-like chirping from yesterday, her sweet, fragrant lips, and flawless white skin...

Pah---

Ye Anping raised his hand and slapped himself, then rubbed his face. Ye Anping, get a grip on your emotions... Yesterday was an unexpected situation, and it caused such a big commotion. You should now be vigilant about whether the events of last night will affect the overall situation instead of lingering in the past... Being consumed by desire is a major taboo on the path to immortality...

He now felt as if his brain had been taken away, and his previous logic and clear thinking had become muddled.

Wasn't there a saying that the sage mode helped people think calmly?

So...

Ye Anping lowered his head and looked at his tense 'little brother', feeling somewhat speechless.

Previously, Elder Wang from the Black Star Sect told him that he must find a cultivation partner one or two levels higher than him; otherwise, the partner would keep running back to hide with her family every few days.

At first, he didn't take it seriously and thought it was an exaggeration. But after last night's incident, he realized that Elder Wang might not be just trying to scare him.

Normally, people hoped they could be like a dragon and last for a long time, but too much vigor was also a problem.

"Sigh... I wonder if there is any medicine in this world that can help ejaculate sooner... Even if there was, probably no one would want it..."

Ye Anping sighed lightly, then glanced toward Night Tide Peak. From afar, it looked no different from usual days. Disciples had already woken and hurried to the martial arts field for classes.

He walked back into the cave and saw that his sister had taken away his storage bag, so he had no choice but to pick up a stone and use the secret code he had taught her before to leave a message. Then, he hurried back to the Sword Wine Peak.

Yun Yiyi should have woken up by now, and she was quite quick-witted.

If she found him gone when she woke up and then heard about the attack at Night Tide Peak, she would surely guess that he had something to do with the forced entry. Moreover, he drugged her. If Yun Yiyi wanted to, she could have him thrown in prison for interrogation with a wave of her hand.

As Ye Anping hurried back, he was analyzing the current situation with a frown.

Rationally speaking, when the yang energy erupted, he should have chosen to practice dual cultivation with Yun Yiyi. But somehow, he felt like this went against his innermost feelings, so he ended up forcefully breaking into the Night Tide Peak to find his sister.

Without a doubt, this was the worst decision.

However, instead of regretting something that had already happened, it was better to think about how to fix it.

"Sigh -- I hope nothing bad will happen."

... ...

On the Sword Wine Peak, in the garden behind the Cloud Wine Mansion, the sad sound of the zither could be heard, making the surrounding flowers seem as if they were shedding tears, with their buds drooping.

Yun Yiyi sat cross-legged inside a pavilion with her eyes closed, playing the zither. Recalling what happened last night in her mind, she felt a sharp pain in her chest. Two tears fell from the corners of her eyes on the back of her white hands with a soft tapping sound.

Huang Quan, who was standing by the side, saw her young mistress so heartbroken for the first time. Although she did not witness what happened last night, she understood that something must have occurred between Eldest Miss and Master.

Waiting for the sound of the zither to stop, Huang Quan poured a cup of hot tea, knelt next to Yun Yiyi, and handed her the cup. "Miss, please have some tea."

Yun Yiyi didn't take the cup of tea. She held the zither strings with both hands and looked up and down at Huang Quan. Her heart suddenly tightened, and she squinted slightly, "Huang Quan, did Young Master Ye say anything to you during those three days I've been sleeping?"

"Ah..."

"Last time, I wanted to take a bath with Young Master Ye, but you interrupted suddenly and acted abnormally. And I heard from other servants that you went to your room very late every day in those days. Normally, when you come to warm my bed, it doesn't matter if you came a little late, but those days when I slept, did you go to Young Master Ye?"

Facing her Miss' questioning, Huang Quan started sweating and said, "I... I am just taking care of Young Master's daily life."

"I didn't ask you to take care of Master Ye's daily life. Moreover, when Master Ye first arrived, he said he doesn't like having maids serving by his side."

"It was Master Ye who asked me to serve him."

At this, Yun Yiyi frowned even deeper, and immediately, some bad thoughts arose in her heart. She questioned, "How are you serving him?"

"Just combing his hair, fetching water, changing his clothes..." Huang Quan bit her lip tightly before cautiously adding, "And warming the bed."

"?!"

Seeing Yun Yiyi's eyes widen, Huang Quan hurriedly waved her hand. "It's just warming the bed; I didn't have intimate relationships! Really!"

"Really?" Yun Yiyi frowned slightly, then threatened, "I can have a doctor come to examine you. Think carefully before you answer."

"I really didn't! If Miss doesn't believe me, I will ask Senior Chen from Sword Wine Peak to examine me later in front of you."

"What did you talk about then?"

"We... we didn't talk about anything."

Yun Yiyi stared at her for a while, then suddenly sighed heavily and shook her head with a look of frustration.

"It seems that the problem is not with you. I even did that last night, but he remained indifferent. And after this incident, how will he see me? Ah... it seems like I have been too aggressive. Huang Quan, please tell him on my behalf that our marriage is off, and I will have someone send him back to the Hundred Lotus Sect."

"Ah..."

Huang Quan listened to these words in shock, guessing most of what had happened last night. Young Lady probably wanted to take the initiative, but Master remained indifferent and even knocked her out, leaving her alone in the guest room.

Today, she had searched for a long time before finding the Young Lady, and she didn't know where Master had gone now...

Huang Quan was conflicted. Seeing that Eldest Lady was about to break off the engagement, she pondered for a moment and hurriedly said, "Miss... It's not what you think! Master is..."

The moment Huang Quan said this, Yun Yiyi's sorrowful and regretful face instantly disappeared, immediately returning to her usual serious expression as if she had merely played a trick.

"He is what?"

"Ah..."

Huang Quan also realized now that she had been deceived by the Eldest Lady. She pouted and lowered her head, trying to brush off the topic. "Miss, how could you deceive a poor servant like this?"

"Consider yourself lucky that I only deceived you." Yun Yiyi looked at her coldly and mercilessly. "If it weren't for the fact that you have been with me since childhood, I would have someone drag you out and break your legs. A little maid hiding an impure relationship with her master..."

"No... there is nothing impure! I just..."

"What did Young Master Ye say to you?"

"Well..." Huang Quan recalled the words Young Master Ye Anping said to her that day. "Miss, don't tell Master about it, okay? I... I really just listened to Master's orders..."

"Mm."

"Actually, Master has a condition."

"A condition?"

"Well, Master can't perform sexually, so every night, I secretly brew medicine and take it to him. He said it seems to be because of his cultivation technique or something..."

"For real?"

"Yes."

Yun Yiyi froze. She had never thought of this possibility, but if this were the case, then it would explain why Ye Anping was so cold to her.

It turned out he didn't dislike her, but he had a dysfunction...

The haze in Yun Yiyi's heart instantly dissipated. Although erectile dysfunction was indeed a problem, it could be treated. If the Sword Sect couldn't treat it, she would take Ye Anping to the Bright Star Sect or Black Star Sect for treatment.

There must be a way to cure him.

"So that's how it is... It seems I misunderstood."

"Eldest Miss." Huang Quan gulped as she whispered, "You'd better pretend you don't know about this, right? It's about a man's dignity."

"Of course I won't tell him." Yun Yiyi glanced at Huang Quan, her expression softening. "Huang Quan, you don't have to hide anymore. I will give you a prescription. You will go to the Alchemy Hall at the Middle Peak to take a pill and then secretly put it into Young Master Ye's tea."

"What? Do I really need to sneak it into his tea? Can't I just give it directly to Young Master?"

"Of course, we have to do it secretly." Yun Yiyi shook her head. "Young Master Ye is very clever. If you give him the pill directly, he will definitely wonder where it came from and then guess that I gave it to you."

"... Miss, do you mind Master's condition?"

"I don't."

Yun Yiyi shook her head, covered her chest, and murmured gently, "Even if he is bedridden for his whole life without being able to move, I would still choose to marry him... I guess I understand now my mother's feelings toward my stinky old man. Love is something that cannot be explained..."

"..."

"Huang Quan, tell me, why did my mother fall in love with this scoundrel father of mine?"

How would she dare answer this question...

Huang Quan shook her head frantically, indicating that she didn't know.

Whoosh---

Just as they were talking, several flying swords descended from the sky. Four disciples in golden and white robes walked in from the back garden gate and cupped their hands to salute Yun Yiyi. "Greetings, Eldest Miss."

Yun Yiyi was a little confused. She knew that the Elders had sent many people to protect her. In the Flowing Water Peak, there were about seven cultivators in the middle and early stages of Core Formation patrolling around day and night.

However, the four people who had just arrived were even higher in cultivation, all of them in the Nascent Soul stage.

She glanced at them and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

"Three disciples at the Core Formation stage died in the Night Tide Peak last night. Master Pei was kidnapped, and Third Lady also went missing."

Yun Yiyi asked in disbelief. "Three Core Formation stage disciples died?"

"Yes, they were all shot through the heart by an arrow, and they couldn't even fight back. The attacker is probably a Nascent Soul cultivator."

"Tell me the details."

"Last night, while Third Miss and Master Pei were bathing at the new residence, a masked cultivator suddenly broke in and took away Master Pei. The seven people who were on duty at the Night Tide Peak split up, four giving pursuit while three staying behind to protect Third Miss."

"So, the three people left behind were attacked by a Nascent Soul cultivator?"

"Well, in order to pursue Master Pei, many disciples followed them, and then the attacker took advantage of the situation, killed the three Core Formation disciples, and took away the Third Lady."

Yun Yiyi frowned, propped her chin, and started thinking.

In the past, if Yun Xi had been kidnapped, she probably would have been gloated over it...

But now...

"Did you catch the person who forced his way into the Night Tide Peak and took Pei Lianxue away?"

"No... Master Pei managed to escape on her own. Our people followed her indications but found no trace of the perpetrator."

"I see..."

At this time, Ye Anping walked in from the garden gate.

Because he didn't have a flying sword, he could only rely on his body to fly, but the energy consumption was very high. At this moment, his forehead was covered in sweat, and he looked a bit disheveled.

Entering the garden and seeing the four Nascent Soul disciples standing before Yun Yiyi, he felt something was wrong; something bad must have happened.

Ye Anping didn't believe that these people came just because he forcefully broke into the Night Tide Peak yesterday. There should have been other incidents last night.

As he hesitated whether to go over or not, Yun Yiyi looked over and noticed him.

When their eyes met, a hint of embarrassment appeared on their faces. However, Yun Yiyi pursed her lips and took the initiative to break the silence between them. "Master Ye, come over and listen to this. There was an incident at the Night Tide Peak last night, and Yun Xi was kidnapped."

"..."

Ye Anping narrowed his eyes and quickly walked up, saluting the four people.

The four continued to recount what happened last night, and after listening to half of it, Ye Anping understood what was going on.

---When he took his sister away, he lured away half of the Core Formation disciples in the Night Tide Peak, and Zhuang Yan took advantage of the situation, killed three disciples, and quietly took away Yun Xi.

Ye Anping felt slightly tired all of a sudden. He did have a premonition that Zhuang Yan would act soon, but because the Sword Sect incident had developed differently than in the game, he couldn't predict exactly when and what Zhuang Yan would do.

But now he knew.

In the original game, Zhuang Yan successfully refined an evil pill with the blood essence of the three descendants of the Yun family. Therefore, he could naturally remove the restriction of the Thousand Sword Pool and enter it.

But now, Zhuang Yan had an incomplete evil pill, so he had to kidnap Yun Xi and force her to use her blood essence and her Leaf Shadow Sword skill to open the restrictions.

Thinking about this, Ye Anping let out a sigh of relief.

"Phew---"

This situation was a bit beyond expectations, but it was still within his plan framework; it's just that some steps had to be slightly advanced.

But then again.

That girl was really unlucky...

Was Yun Xi's luck that bad in the game?
