The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix – Chapter 114

Chapter 114: Protagonist, A Secret Meeting With Senior Brother Again

Ye Anping, as usual, completely ignored Xiao Tian and continued to gaze silently at Feng Yu Die.

Jiang Yu, also having recovered from his surprise, bowed with clasped hands despite his bruised and swollen face.

“Senior, I am Jiang Yu, the Young Master of the Jiang Mansion. May I ask for your esteemed name?”

“My surname is Ye,” Ye Anping replied truthfully, then narrowed his eyes slightly and asked suspiciously, “Young Master of the Jiang Mansion?”

“Yes! I…”

Jiang Yu was about to explain that someone had impersonated him, but Ye Anping raised his hand and interrupted him.

“There have been quite a few people trying to impersonate Young Master Jiang lately. Are you one of them?”

“Ah…” Jiang Yu was taken aback and quickly shook his head to explain, “Senior, I am the real one. The person inside the Jiang Mansion now is the fake one!”

“Do you have any proof?”

“This…”

“Do you have a token?”

“…”

“Do the people from the Jiang Mansion recognize your face?”

“…”

“Since you have none of that, then words are not enough,” Ye Anping shrugged slightly and reprimanded him without mincing words. He then looked at Feng Yu Die and said, “Senior Sister Feng, you are truly something. You believed him just like that? You even helped him kick down someone’s door.”

Hearing this, Feng Yu Die twisted her brow and gave Ye Anping a sidelong glance. She then continued his sentence,

“To be honest, I also think he’s an impostor now.”

“Ah?!”

Hearing this, Jiang Yu’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Feng Yu Die.

“Senior!! I’m the real one…”

At this point, Jiang Yu glanced at the expressions of Ye Anping and Feng Yu Die. He could tell they were both finding him annoying, so he no longer dared to speak.

After a moment of hesitation, he bowed to both of them, wiped his eyes, turned, and ran away.

“Junior… Junior will not disturb you two seniors anymore. *Sniff*—”

Watching Jiang Yu run away crying, Ye Anping sighed lightly. Feng Yu Die also rubbed her nose and glanced at him.

“It was you and Junior Sister Pei who robbed him, wasn’t it?”

“Guess.”

“Guess my foot!” Feng Yu Die said with disdain and couldn’t help but punch his shoulder with her fist, asking, “Weren’t you and Junior Sister Pei on a sect mission? Why are you here? And why are you impersonating a cultivator partner and pretending to be the Young Master of the Jiang Mansion?”

“Sit down and I’ll tell you slowly. I’m treating you to roasted chicken, want to come?”

“En?!”

Upon hearing the words “roasted chicken,” Feng Yu Die’s eyes lit up.

“Why wouldn’t I go? It’s free food. You must have earned a lot, right? I want to eat at the best restaurant in Du Chun City.”

“Alright, but you have to help me out in a few days too.”

“What do you want to do now?”

“Sit down and I’ll tell you.”

…

Walking down the street for one block, Ye Anping led Feng Yu Die to a decent-looking restaurant. He asked the waiter to prepare a private room and they went upstairs to sit.

After the waiter brought several plates of snacks and the roasted chicken, Feng Yu Die didn’t stand on ceremony. She directly moved the entire plate of roasted chicken to her side, leaving Ye Anping with only the chicken’s tail.

“Speaking of which, why were you and Junior Sister Pei impersonating a cultivator partner?”

“It was convenient.”

“Then why don’t you include me?”

?

Ye Anping was slightly stunned and frowned, asking, “Include you?”

“I’ll impersonate a cultivator partner with Junior Sister Pei too. We can stay at the Jiang Mansion for the next few days. We can even call Senior Sister Xiao over, and I can help set you up with Senior Sister Xiao then.” Feng Yu Die said while gnawing on a chicken drumstick, giving Ye Anping a wink. She then sighed and added, “Besides, I don’t feel safe living in the Chi Long Mansion.”

“Oh? Not safe?”

“Yes, there was a demonic cultivator in the Chi Long Mansion yesterday. It was a cultivator from the Tian Mo Sect. Senior Sister Xiao and I went to see… I heard it was two Xuan Xing Sect disciples…”

At this point, Feng Yu Die’s chicken-eating paused. Xiao Tian, perched on Ye Anping’s shoulder, sneered,

‘Most likely it was you, Young Master Ye. Hmph~ Right? Young Master Ye, it was you, wasn’t it?’

Ye Anping wanted to nod, but suddenly realized Xiao Tian was asking and remained silent. He only nodded in agreement when Feng Yu Die asked.

“It was you?”

“Yes, it was us.”

“Why are you fighting with demonic cultivators again?”

“Your intuition isn’t bad.”

Ye Anping shrugged slightly and looked around. To be safe, he took out a soundproofing talisman and stuck it on the private room door before continuing,

“The Chi Long Mansion definitely has a problem. In simple terms, Li Feng wants to extend his lifespan through a blood sacrifice, so he made a deal with demonic cultivators.”

“Mhm… As expected,” Feng Yu Die nodded deeply. “I told Senior Sister Xiao something similar before, but she didn’t believe me at all.”

“She didn’t believe you?”

“Yes, because that Li Feng has a pretty good relationship with her mother. She completely doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with Li Feng.”

Is it because of affection?

Ye Anping fell silent for a moment.

According to the plot, this was indeed the point where Feng Yu Die discovered something was wrong and told Xiao Yunluo. Although Xiao Yunluo was half-believing, she also started secretly investigating and probing the situation inside the Chi Long Mansion. Later, she even used Li Longling’s authority to sneak to the core of the suppressing formation behind the Chi Long Mansion to investigate.

Feng Yu Die continued to gnaw on the roasted chicken and asked,

“Is Senior Sister Xiao’s mother also colluding with demonic cultivators?”

?

Ye Anping blinked at the question, stunned for a long time before replying,

“No, you’re overthinking it.”

“Then why did her mother still let her participate in the Chi Long Convention?”

“I think her mother probably also believed that Li Feng couldn’t possibly be colluding with demonic cultivators before. But she likely feels it now.”

“So, are you planning to stop Li Feng?”

“Not me, us.”

Feng Yu Die immediately shook her head and refused, “That’s a Nascent Soul cultivator. I don’t have the ability to fight him.”

“To be precise, he’s a Nascent Soul cultivator whose lifespan is about to run out.”

Feng Yu Die pondered for a moment and asked again,

“What will happen if no one stops him?”

“The area around the Chi Long Mansion will become a dead zone, and the Western Regions will once again be eroded by Extreme Flame Spiritual Energy, leading to the suffering of millions.”

“…”

“So? Are you in?”

“Mhm…” Feng Yu Die lowered her eyes and mused for a moment, then looked at Ye Anping’s face and grinned, showing her teeth. “I’m in! Even if it’s for Junior Sister Li! Hehe— And with you here, I inexplicably feel a sense of security.”

“…Go back and tell Li Longling for me. Ask her to meet me in the mountain forest outside Du Chun City in three days.”

“Why don’t you just go with me to see her?”

Ye Anping shrugged slightly:

“I need to lure out a demonic cultivator. Yesterday, I deliberately had Junior Sister leave some information in the Chi Long Mansion. The other demonic cultivators will definitely want to find us to avenge their people, so they’ll definitely find us through Li Longling.”

Feng Yu Die knitted her brows and pondered, then her eyes lit up in understanding.

“Junior Sister Li will bring that demonic cultivator to meet you?”

“Yes.”

Feng Yu Die narrowed her eyes and asked, “Could it be… her name is Wu Yue?”

Ye Anping slightly raised his eyebrows and countered, “You’ve met her?”

“I saw something was wrong with her at a glance. Hehe.”
