The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

The green smoke from the incense burner lingered on the chessboard. Xiao Yunluo had calmed down at this time and started taking seriously this thing called "backgammon" she played with Pei Lianxue.

For her, who had many records in Go, this kind of game with simplified rules was not difficult at all.

Previously, she had lost many games to Pei Lianxue because her mind was not there.

But this round---

Click---

The four pieces were connected.

Xiao Yunluo smiled faintly and said, "Hmph~ Lianxue, you lost this time."

Pei Lianxue stared blankly at the chessboard. She was clearly winning now, but when Xiao Yunluo got serious, she lost in just ten moves. She immediately pouted: "Yunluo, how did you suddenly become so good?"

"I lost to you because it was my first time playing this... Now I've learned the rules..."

Boom---

A dull sound, accompanied by a slight vibration, broke the tranquility of the entire inn. Xiao Yunluo and Pei Lianxue became alert in an instant. Even the parrot, who was trying to chew the dried fish with its beak, flapped its wings and turned to look at the door.

Following that, there was a rush of footsteps.

Tap-tap---

The parrot opened its beak slightly and croaked. "Ye Tianchong!! Ye Tianchong!!"

?

Before Xiao Yunluo could ask the parrot where he learned that name, the door was knocked open from the outside with a bang.

Ye Anping, who rushed into the room, looked very bad now. The blood vessels on his forehead throbbed with the flow of blood as if they were about to burst.

Although Pei Lianxue had seen many times how her brother looked when his yang energy got out of control, this was the first time she had seen him look like this, and she was extremely worried at the moment.

With no regard for Xiao Yunluo's presence, she immediately stood up from her seat, quickly ran to take Ye Anping into her arms, and sent her spiritual energy into his meridians.

Xiao Yunluo reached out and tried to say something, but before her voice came out, she saw Pei Lianxue stand up on her tiptoes and kiss Ye Anping's lips.

She sat blankly in front of the chessboard and glanced at the game that she had just won against Pei Lianxue, feeling her heart inexplicably stifled. However, she composed herself quickly.

She gently grabbed the parrot, who was still nibbling on the dried fish, stood up from the chair, and walked to the door.

As she passed the two people kissing, she paused and whispered, "I won't disturb you two."

Then, she picked up her skirt, stepped out of the room, closed the door, and thoughtfully took out two soundproofing talismans from the storage bag and pasted them on the outside of the door.

Xiao Yunluo leaned against the door as she looked up at the ceiling of the inn, her lips pursing slightly.

A crystal teardrop slipped from the corner of her beautiful lavender eye and slid down her round cheek, landing on the collar of her uniform.

She wiped her eyes with her sleeve, then asked the parrot, "Hey, do you think if I hadn't come out just now, they would have chased me away?"

"In front of you!! In front of you!!"

"No... Would I be invited to join... them?"

After a moment of silence, the parrot opened its beak again. "You're adorable!! So adorable!!"

Xiao Yunluo pursed her lips and took out another dried fish from her storage bag to feed it. "Who's adorable? Forget it, I won't ask you anymore. Just go back to my mother! She is probably dying of loneliness..."

The parrot tilted its head, picked up the dried fish, spread its wings, and flew out of the inn.

Just as the parrot left, Feng Yu Die, who had been meditating in her room, also rushed out. Seeing Xiao Yunluo squatting alone at the opposite door, she asked with confusion on her face, "Eh? Sister Xiao, what are you doing at the door?"

"Ye Anping is inside with Lianxue... shouldn't I have come out?"

"You can work with Sister Pei to help Young Master Ye relieve his yang energy." Feng Yu Die shrugged slightly. "Young Master Ye had this problem with his yang energy and I was the one who helped him resolve it when we were at the Dragon House."

?

Hearing this sentence, Xiao Yunluo's eyes instantly widened, and she was so shocked that she couldn't even speak. "You... second idiot... you help... helped Ye Anping..."

"Yes, and I have earned tens of thousands of spirit stones." Feng Yu Die grinned, then said with some bitterness, "I was just about to offer to help him relieve his yang energy and gain some spirit stones, but he rushed off to find Sister Pei. What a pity."

After this, Xiao Tian, who got into the room earlier, flew out through the door and said, "Alright, you go back and continue practicing the Black Moon Routine, or else Anping won't buy you roasted chicken tomorrow. He'll be okay, he's got Miss Pei to help him."

Hearing Xiao Tian say that Ye Anping was fine, Feng Yu Die felt a little more at ease. "Young Master Ye has booked this wing of the inn. Sister Xiao, why don't you find a room to rest?"

Xiao Yunluo slightly raised her chin and answered, "Ah... no... no need."

"Then, I'll go back to my room. Let me know if you need anything!"

Feng Yu Die turned around and retreated to her room to continue practicing.

After Feng Yu Die returned to her room and closed the door, Xiao Yunluo still did not come to her senses.

It turned out that Lianxue was not the only one who was one step ahead of her.

The second idiot...

And... at the Dragon House?

When did this happen?

Why didn't she know?

Wasn't the second idiot living with her in the Dragon Mansion at that time?

When did she and Ye Anping...

"...Does Lianxue know?"

...

Time flew, and it was almost daybreak.

Rip-- As the door opened, Xiao Yunluo's insulating talisman that was stuck to the door, was torn into two pieces.

Neatly dressed, Ye Anping stepped out of the room. Only then did he see Xiao Yunluo, who was crouching outside the door, wrapped in a blanket. She did not seem to have wrapped in the blanket herself, but rather as if someone saw her sleeping here and covered her with it.

Just as Ye Anping was wondering if it was Si Xuanji who had secretly come here, Xiao Tian flew directly out of Feng Yu Die's room.

She flew to Ye Anping's shoulder and sat down, poking his cheek with her hand: "Yu Die covered her, as Miss Xiao has been guarding your door the whole night."

"Ah, so..."

Looking at Xiao Yunluo, Xiao Tian felt that she was quite pitiful. She covered her mouth and snickered: "Anping, you are so cruel~"

"I have no choice."

"Then when are you going to favor Yu Die? She was worried about you just now."

"How's her practice going?"

"When you and Miss Pei were busy here, she reached the third level and broke through the cultivation level. She just came out, took a quilt to cover Miss Xiao, and went back to the room to sleep.''

"Really?"

Ye Anping was silent for a while. The amount of cultivation he received from the settlement this time was a little too much. He even gave some to his sister. Now he has broken through the bottleneck in the middle stage of the Foundation Building, and his sister has entered the Core Formation stage.

He decided he had to explore his and Feng Yu Die's meridians. Then he approached Xiao Yunluo and picked her up from the ground.

"Woo..."

Xiao Yunluo opened her eyes slightly, and when she saw Ye Anping picking her up, her dazed consciousness suddenly woke up: "You..."

"If you sleep here, you will wake up with back pain. Go to bed."

"Bed... bed?!" Xiao Yunluo seemed a little nervous, and her eyes widened, "Is it possible... you still want me to..."

Ye Anping clicked his tongue, and interrupted in a slightly cold voice: "Calm down."

"Oh..."

Xiao Yunluo realized that she was so nervous that she spoke nonsense, froze for a while, and asked in a small voice: "Ye Anping, you and the second idiot... Feng Yu Die..."

"What about me and her?"

"When you and her were in the Dragon House, have you already... practiced dual cultivation?"

?

?

Two question marks, one big and one small, instantly popped above Ye Anping and Xiao Tian's heads.
