The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Ye Anping recalled some things and realized that Xiao Yunluo had misunderstood. As he held her, he pushed open the door of his room, entered, and explained at the same time. "That time, I just asked Sister Feng to use her true energy to help me dispel my yang excess. For this, I gave her thirty thousand spirit stones..."

At this point, Ye Anping was pretty certain. He suddenly realized that Feng Yu Die's stagnation in her cultivation seemed to have something to do with him.

---First, after he built his foundation and Xiao Yunluo returned to the Black Star Sect, Feng Yu Die had just come out of the stone room after building her foundation too.

---After the Dragon House events, he reached the middle stage of the Foundation Building, and Feng Yu Die also reached the middle stage of the Foundation Building one step behind him.

---Just now, due to settlement, his cultivation broke through the mid-stage bottleneck and entered the late stage. At the same time, Feng Yu Die, whose cultivation was sluggish lately, also made a breakthrough and cultivated the Black Moon Routine to the third level.

For several hours, Feng Yu Die's progress was extremely slow, but after his own yang energy settled and he broke through, she also broke through.

This couldn't possibly be a coincidence.

Si Xuanji once told him that he and Feng Yu Die were bound by fate.

Thinking about it this way, he was now dragging down Feng Yu Die, and this was even on the premise that he had a golden finger.

Without the golden finger of the yang energy settlement, Feng Yu Die would probably only be in the early stage of the Foundation Building now.

This wasn't much of a problem before, but it was different now.

Now, Feng Yu Die and Gu Mingxin had encountered each other, and they were already mortal enemies.

Originally, there wasn't much of a difference in qualifications and training between the two of them, but now that Feng Yu Die was linked to him, the difference between them and Gu Mingxin would only widen.

For now, he could use his foresight and strategy to make up for this gap, but sooner or later, the gap would be so big that he wouldn't be able to make up for it anymore.

Ye Anping had the confidence to let a Foundation Building cultivator kill one Core Formation cultivator and not sustain any damage, by relying on their weaknesses. But even if he calculated without fail, he would never be able to make a Foundation Building cultivator kill a Nascent Soul cultivator.

When the power gap reached a certain level, tactics and strategies would no longer be effective.

In a nutshell, he needed to find a way to raise his cultivation level. At the very least, he needed his cultivation to be on Gu Mingxin's tail, or else in the future, he and Feng Yu Die would inevitably die under her sword.

However, how could a dual spirit root cultivator catch up with a peerless genius like Gu Mingxin?

---Could he use a demonic cultivator's technique to rapidly improve his cultivation level?

But although the demonic cultivators' techniques were fast, they were contrary to the way of heaven. Almost all used the inner essence of other people to promote their cultivation. It was easy to encounter inner demonic tribulation and fall, so it was definitely not a good idea.

That left a method that did not violate the immortal way...

---Dual Cultivation.

In other words, practicing dual cultivation with someone whose level and qualifications were higher than his, and merging yin and yang to boost his own cultivation, was probably the only shortcut he could take at the moment.

Thinking of this, Ye Anping suddenly remembered how Si Xuanji flirted with him.

He was actually wondering why a powerful person like Si Xuanji would be so interested in a young cultivator with two spiritual roots like him, and even tried various ways to seduce him, offering to help him resolve his yang excess issue.

But now, he finally understood the meaning of Si Xuanji's move.

Apart from the main reason that he was indeed very handsome.

Si Xuanji must have already expected his spiritual root qualifications to become a drawback, so she had already prepared to help him compensate for this weakness with dual cultivation, right?

The engagement between him and Xiao Yunluo was probably for this reason.

Just as he cultivated his younger sister in order to survive Wu Yu's destruction of the sect.

In the game, Si Xuanji raised Feng Yu Die to become one of her capable subordinates.

Perhaps, ever since Si Xuanji came to him and handed him the Yin-Yang Pendant for his and Yunluo's engagement, he already had no way to escape his destiny in this world.

Just as Ye Anping was thinking about his destiny with mixed feelings, a small hand suddenly rose up and gently smoothed his brow.

Xiao Yunluo, who was held in Ye Anping's arms like a princess, looked at him frozen in thought with a serious expression and did not disturb him. Then, she saw him frowning deeper and deeper, and unable to hold back, she stretched her hand to smooth his frown.

"Ye Anping, what's bothering you?"

Looking down at Xiao Yunluo, Ye Anping opened his mouth slightly. After hesitating for a while, he just shook his head without saying anything. He carried her to the bedside, sat down, and let her lean on his chest.

?!

Xiao Yunluo was caught off guard, and her eyes suddenly showed a hint of panic. She wanted to struggle, but on the other hand, she was unwilling to get away. Her heart was so confused that she could only protest in a small voice. "You... What are you doing?"

Ye Anping closed his eyes and remained silent for a while. His hand slowly slid down into her neckline, pressed against her skin, and twisted gently.

"!!"

Xiao Yunluo instantly stiffened and bit her lip lightly, but she did not resist. She just looked away with blushing cheeks and asked, "Weren't you with Lianxue just now..."

"I am your study companion and one of my duties also includes serving you in bed."

Hearing this, Xiao Yunluo's hair stood on end, and her eyes were slightly aggrieved. She looked at Ye Anping's calm face.

"Well... Then, you can serve me."

"Hmm."

Ye Anping nodded, turned Xiao Yunluo around a quarter turn, and placed his hands on her knees, spreading her legs apart and sitting her astride him with her back leaning against his chest.

The small white jade feet dangled on both sides of Ye Anping's knees and then slightly arched.

Xiao Yunluo's face was full of shyness, and she simply closed her eyes. "But... Hands only! And don't stare!"

Rustle, rustle~~

Ye Anping gently touched her crescent moon with his forefinger, then paused and said softly, "Sister Xiao, promise me something."

"What... what..."

"No more sneaking around and reading those books at night. It is not good for your cultivation. You are about to enter the Core Formation stage, so you should know you need to exercise restraint. See where it got you now?"

Xiao Yunluo's cheeks were so red as if they were about to steam, and her mouth was slightly open, but it took her a while to utter a sentence. "I'm still a teenager... isn't it normal to have those needs?"

"Once or twice a month at most. How often do you usually do this?"

Almost every day... Xiao Yunluo was about to say but was too embarrassed to admit it. She turned her head to look at Ye Anping's face with shameful and angry eyes but saw that he actually didn't look at her and had his eyes closed.

"...How can you be so serious at a time like this?"

"Why wouldn't I be serious? Didn't you tell me not to look?"

"..."

Xiao Yunluo pursed her lips and finally relaxed, reaching out to grab Ye Anping's bigger hand and guide him to resume his touch.

The dim light of the candles shone upon the two, and every now and then, a light and tender voice, like a nightingale, rang out in the room.

Ye Anping kept his eyes closed the whole time, letting Xiao Yunluo control his fingers with her hand, feeling her wriggling and swaying in his arms.

After who knew how long, Xiao Yunluo spoke again. "Ye Anping, you... you are just my companion student, do you understand?"

"You only want me to be your companion student?"

"Lianxue is your cultivation partner. She and I have a very good relationship... so..."

Xiao Yunluo gently pursed her lips as she remembered the Yin-Yang Pendant that her mother had given to Ye Anping.

She really liked Ye Anping.

But she also liked Pei Lianxue as a friend, and she didn't want Pei Lianxue to regard her as an enemy because of Ye Anping.

She was silent for a while and resolved in her heart to not mention the matter of that Yin-Yang Pendant, at least until she persuaded Pei Lianxue to agree to Ye Anping marrying her as his second wife.

Otherwise, it would only make things difficult for Ye Anping.

Polygamy among outstanding men in this world was not a big deal. It's just that Lianxue was a little possessive.

However, she felt that she could convince Lianxue. She just had to keep a little distance from Ye Anping for now.

Ye Anping was her study companion. He would just serve her in bed occasionally...

"Will you remember? Ye Anping!"

Ye Anping looked at her and nodded slightly. "Hmm."

Xiao Yunluo smiled happily, no longer restrained her small movements, and once again grabbed Ye Anping's right hand.

However, at this time.

Jingle jingle~~

A jade bell rang in Ye Anping's mind.

Because he didn't know whether it was Si Xuanji or Su Waner, he immediately restrained himself and hastily pulled his hand back.

"What's wrong?"

A little confused, Xiao Yunluo turned to look at him, when suddenly, a teasing female voice came from the corner of the room. "Oh? Looks like I came at the wrong time, eh? Young Master Ye is busy taking care of Miss Xiao."

The fox-masked woman seemed to have slipped in with the wind, leaving a silver arc behind. As she spoke, she walked out of the shadows in the corner of the room and came five feet from Ye Anping and Xiao Yunluo with her arms crossed.

Xiao Yunluo flinched and immediately pulled down the long skirt wrapped around her waist. She looked with a face full of shame and horror at the fox-faced woman who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. "Thief... Immortal Thief?! You, you, you... aren't you dead? This afternoon..."

"Eh?"

Su Waner was taken aback for a moment, and the eyes behind the mask moved to the face of Ye Anping, who was holding Xiao Yunluo. "Didn't you tell her?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yunluo turned to look at Ye Anping, her big purple eyes full of doubt.

Ye Anping sighed helplessly, still maintaining his posture with Xiao Yunluo, and said, "Miss Su, can't you knock on the door before you come in?"

"Hehe~ Sorry! I never knock anywhere I enter."

A smile appeared on Su Waner's face under the mask as she pulled a chair and sat down. Taking out a scroll from her storage bag, she sent it to Ye Anping.

Xiao Yunluo caught the scroll, hesitantly opened it, and her eyes widened slightly. "This... is the map of Heavenly Gate City's Imperial Palace?"

Ye Anping glanced at the map over Xiao Yunluo's shoulder and asked in surprise, "When did you get it?"

"Just now, but don't worry, no one noticed." Su Waner shrugged as she spread her hands. "Although I am no longer an Immortal Thief, I used to be one. Stealing a map is no problem."

Ye Anping looked at Su Waner's foxy face with raised eyebrows. "I haven't told you yet what kind of help I was going to ask for, but you already know?"

"Hehe... I'm not a fool. The only two things I'm good at are the Heavenly Picking Technique and the Escape Technique. Since you want my help, it naturally must be related to stealing something, right? And within this Heavenly Gate City, the only thing that can arouse Young Master Ye's interest is most likely the secret vault of the Imperial Sect, so consider this as my job application."

"Well, since you have already guessed it, I don't need to explain too much."

Ye Anping took the map from Xiao Yunluo's hand, spread it out, and held it in mid-air with his spiritual power. Then, he threw the holy water that had not yet dried on his fingertips to the center of the map, staining it with a little wet mark.

"It's here."

Su Waner turned to look and paused. "Heavenly Harmony Palace?"

"Well, directly underneath the Heavenly Harmony Palace Hall, there is a Five Elements Prohibition. I would like to ask Miss Su to bring my sister along and get in, break the restriction, and take out a statue weighing a thousand pounds. I will wait at the Southern Gate outside the Heavenly Harmony Palace Hall. You just bring the statue over and then go on your way. When the matter is settled, we will meet outside the city."

"Understood. What about the payment?"

"Fifteen percent."

"Deal."

"Miss Su is so decisive, don't you want to negotiate the price with me?"

Su Waner shrugged. She stood up, took out the jade token that Liang Zhu had given her, and said, "No need. By the way, my last name has changed to Ye."

"I see... Well, we will act after the Demon King comes to the city. At that time, Brother Liang will take you to the palace first, and a maid named Hongyu, who serves the Empress, will pick you up."

"Understood. Then, I won't disturb you from taking care of Miss Xiao, but I still want to say, Mr. Ye, you are still young, so it is better to exercise some restraint."

Ye Anping replied with a dark look. "Don't trouble yourself with that."

With a wave, Ye Waner turned around and walked to the shadow in the corner of the room.

The dim candlelight flickered slightly, and her figure disappeared from the room in a flash.

After Ye Waner left, Xiao Yunluo stood frozen for a while before finally coming back to her senses. Her shameless posture just now was seen by the Immortal Thief...

For a moment, she was fuming in shame and anger so much, that she just wanted to bite her tongue and kill herself.

However, very quickly, she got over her sense of shame and turned to look at Ye Anping. "Ye Anping, you want to hit the Imperial Sect's treasury? But it's the Emperor of the Central Region..."

"Sister Xiao, you don't have to worry. Everything is ready except for the Demon King." Ye Anping then looked down at her disheveled appearance. "Do you want to continue?"

"..."

How could she still be in the mood after what happened...

Xiao Yunluo shifted her gaze. "Is there anything I can help with? I..."

"When the time comes, and the Demon King and Sister Feng are fighting, you have to help Sister Feng."

"Ah? Demon... Demon King?"

"Well, the Demon King wants something from Sister Feng. However, her cultivation has just reached the late stage of Foundation Building, and I'm worried that she won't be able to withstand it. It doesn't matter if she gets some bumps, just don't let the Demon King kill her."

She might not stand it...

Hearing Ye Anping speak so lightly, Xiao Yunluo didn't know what to say.

The Demon King, Hu Mu, was a powerful cultivator in the Void Returning stage in terms of human cultivation.

What was the second idiot's level of cultivation now?

Fighting that guy, wasn't that asking for trouble?

Xiao Yunluo didn't understand, but it was Ye Anping who said it after all. She trusted Ye Anping, so she stopped thinking about it and nodded in agreement. "Okay."

Then, she pursed her lips, held Ye Anping's hand in her little hand, and placed it in front of her moist crescent moon.

"Then... then, you go ahead and serve me..."

Ye Anping sighed slightly. "Well... after today, the next time will be a month later. Sister Xiao, you must remember it clearly."

"I... I know! Hurry up... it will be dawn soon, and second idiot and Lianxue will get up."

"Sigh--"
