The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Drip-- drip---

Fresh blood dripped down the tip of the long thorn in Zhuang Yan's hand.

Zhuang Yan glanced at Yun Yiyi, who now had a look in her eyes as if she wanted to skin him alive. He sneered and casually walked back to the side of the alchemy furnace while throwing the sharp thorn into one of its holes.

Sizzle---

The reddish-yellow flame burning inside the furnace instantly turned into bright red by the blood, and, under the reflection of the obsidian of the platform, the entire cavern seemed dyed with a layer of ominous crimson color.

Zhuang Yan peeked at the furnace again, then took out another thorn from his storage bag and slowly approached Yun Yiyi.

"Eldest Miss, I never actually intended to take your lives. To me, both you and Second Miss are nothing but ants."

While thinking of a way to escape, Yun Yiyi replied calmly, "Then, why have you changed your mind now?"

"You should blame Third Miss for that, eh?" Zhuang Yan walked up to Yun Yiyi, chuckling. "If she had obediently let herself be captured, I would only need five drops of blood from each of you. But now that Third Miss is not here, you two will have to make up for her share."

As he spoke, Zhuang Yan slowly pressed the thorn in his hand against Yun Yiyi's upper abdomen.

Yun Yiyi clenched her teeth and prepared herself for the impending pain.

At the same time, she formed seals with her hands, ready to activate the hidden protective amulet in her waistband.

Facing a Nascent Soul cultivator like Zhuang Yan, she didn't have the confidence to fight him at this time.

Her only choice now was probably to let Zhuang Yan take her blood and then fake death using the protective amulet. After Zhuang Yan left later on, she would have a chance to escape.

Although frustrating, this was the only way to stay alive.

Ye Anping was still waiting for her to avenge him and now her second sister as well.

She absolutely could not die before taking revenge.

Swish---

Yun Yiyi gritted her teeth and simply closed her eyes.

Just as Zhuang Yan was about to plunge the thorn into her abdomen, suddenly, a burst of energy like an explosion occurred beneath his feet.

Boom---

Yun Jiujiu, who was originally curled up on the ground, suddenly stood up. Raising her hand, she punched directly the thorn in Zhuang Yan's hand, knocking it away. At the same time, she changed her fist direction, hitting Zhuang Yan in the face.

With a loud bang, Zhuang Yan was sent flying, and his back hit the alchemy furnace in the center of the platform, causing it to emit a low sound like a morning bell.

Dong---

"Hooha-- Hooha--"

Yun Jiujiu gasped heavily and slowly straightened up, standing in front of Yun Yiyi.

At this moment, her whole body was exuding golden mist, and behind her, Yun Yiyi could even feel the heat waves from her body.

Yun Yiyi didn't react at first, but then she understood what had happened. Her younger sister forcibly stimulated all the spiritual energy in her meridians, and she forced a breakthrough in her cultivation level.

Among the three sisters, Yun Jiujiu's aptitudes were the best. The energy she had accumulated for more than sixty years burst out in an instant, enough for her to advance several levels in a short period of time.

But, every action she took now, not only brought excruciating pain, like being skinned alive, but there was also a high possibility that her meridians would explode and she would die.

"Second sister, you..."

"I've had enough!! The Yun family is a fucking mess!!" Yun Jiujiu roared loudly. "I was ready to leave and no longer care about this damn Yun family, but in the end, I have to go through this shit!!... Yun Yiyi, the hell with you and your father!!!"

?

Yun Yiyi frowned and asked, "Why are you cursing at me?"

"I'm cursing your father!! He gave birth to so many bastards, one being you and another Yun Xi. Now there's even a Yun Kunwu popping up!! So annoying!!"

"I am your older sister."

"Well then, listen carefully, older sister!!"

Yun Jiujiu shouted angrily, lifted the broken chain on the ground with a kick, and grabbed it in her hand.

At the same time, the two Core Formation cultivators who had brought them here stepped forward to both sides of Yun Jiujiu and raised their swords to stab at her.

"I'll help you escape now. Remember, after you get out, find a way to beat that geezer to a pulp for me!!!"

Ding ding---

She intercepted the long swords of those two cultivators with the chains she held and then kicked them away.

"I'll be waiting in the underworld, you can kick him over here, and I'll continue to beat him down there!!"

With that said, Yun Jiujiu split the iron lock on Yun Yiyi's wrist with the edge of her palm, then hugged her waist and prepared to rush out with her.

Zhuang Yan, who was still by the furnace, saw that something was wrong and didn't want to leave any margin for error. He had already taken Yun Jiujiu's blood essence, and as for Yun Yiyi, he could take it when he killed her later.

He raised his sword finger, and ten golden swords shot out from his storage bag.

However, instead of escaping through the exit above with Yun Yiyi, Yun Jiujiu raised her right leg high and kicked hard the obsidian platform.

Boom---

A vibrating sound like an earth dragon turning over resounded through the cavern.

The iron chains supporting the platform began to break one after another after she put her foot down. The Foundation Building cultivators on the platform started to panic. They stood up and prepared to summon their flying swords to avoid falling into the lava below.

Only the six Core Formation cultivators maintaining the fire in the pill furnace remained unshaken.

However, now that there were fewer Foundation Building cultivators than originally required for the formation, those six people started to feel their spiritual energy being drained.

Zhuang Yan did not expect that Yun Jiujiu would actually think of breaking his alchemy formation first. Suddenly, the sisters were not a priority anymore.

He formed seals with his hands and directed his own spiritual power to replace dozens of Foundation Building cultivators in maintaining the furnace fire. At the same time, he recalled the ten spirit swords and dispersed them in various directions to replace the iron chains and lift the obsidian platform that was about to fall.

"Pfft."

Yun Jiujiu saw that Zhuang Yan didn't pay attention to them anymore, so she quickly lifted Yun Yiyi and prepared to make her escape.

However...

"Stop them!!"

While still maintaining the formation, Zhuang Yan shouted loudly, jolting all the fleeing Foundation Building cultivators.

Those sixty-odd people, along with the two Core Formation cultivators who had just been kicked away by Yun Jiujiu and the one who was supervising the process of condensing the pill from above, instantly took out their swords from their storage bags and rushed toward Yun Jiujiu and Yun Yiyi.

"Hiss--"

Seeing so many people, Yun Jiujiu was worried.

Now, she could win completely against a cultivator in the Core Formation stage, and more than likely have a tie with two of them. But with so many people...

"Sister!! Think of something!!!"

"Charge straight out..."

Yun Yiyi glanced left and right, and took out the protective talisman hidden in her waistband, preparing to activate it and wrap herself and Yun Jiujiu within.

Although it might not be able to withstand a Nascent Soul cultivator, this group of Foundation Building cultivators along with several Core Formation cultivators would definitely not be able to break through the spiritual shield for the time being.

It was at this time that a golden light flashed from the direction of the alchemical furnace.

Ding---

Zhuang Yan's eyes widened. Because the situation was a bit chaotic, he didn't react until he saw this golden light. He then discovered that two Foundation Building cultivators had secretly approached the pill furnace, and one of them had pierced and opened a small hole in it with just one sword strike.

How was this possible?

So much spiritual energy gathered in this alchemy furnace acted like a spiritual shield. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator exerting all their strength might not be able to open a hole in this furnace.

So how did this person split a hole in the alchemy furnace?

The doubt that filled Zhuang Yan's eyes turned into panic the next moment---

He saw one of those two people looking at him with deep purple eyes full of mockery.

Ye Anping held a Water Spirit Pearl in his left hand and placed it in front of the small hole that Feng Yu Die had broken open using all her strength. He did not throw it directly in but deliberately waited for Zhuang Yan to see what it was before letting go.

"Wait!!!"

Zhuang Yan immediately reached out to grab it, but the water spirit pearl had already fallen into the furnace.

In the same instant, Ye Anping hugged Feng Yu Die and ordered, "Protect yourself, now!!"

Feng Yu Die reacted swiftly and released her spiritual energy. Together with Ye Anping, they formed a spherical spiritual shield around themselves.

On top of the Jade Snow Peak, under the fierce wind and heavy snowfall.

A ray of light shot straight into the sky, illuminating all the Moon Shadow Sword Sect's corners.
