The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix – Chapter 390

Chapter 387: Senior Brother, Sleeping Prince

Tap tap~~

The doors and windows were tightly shut. The noisy footsteps outside could be heard, but the room was warm, filled with a faint, calming fragrance that relaxed both body and mind.

Feng Yu Die slowly opened her eyes, her gaze falling upon the wooden ceiling. Her head was still buzzing.

Fragmented memories began to play back from the depths of her consciousness.

The taste of roasted chicken skin, salty, and a little slippery…

Deep down, she actually liked that taste. And after tasting Young Master Ye’s lips at that time, she had also felt a sense of security she had never experienced before.

Clearly, at that moment, both she and Young Master Ye were buried under the mountain, moments away from being crushed into meat paste by the rocks above.

But after that accidental kiss, she had felt a sense of release, as if with Young Master Ye present, there was nothing to worry about.

Her heart felt warm…

Could it be that, just as Xiao Tian said, she was attracted to Young Master Ye?

Feng Yu Die slightly furrowed her brows, wanting to find a reason to refute it, but she couldn’t find any words. The turmoil built up in her chest, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Her Master had told her to stay away from men!

But now, she was attracted to a man.

This was heresy, an act of betraying her Master! She couldn’t let down her Master, nor Junior Sister Pei. She was completely devoted to Junior Sister Pei…

Feng Yu Die bit her lip and immediately called out:

“Xiao Tian! Xiao Tian!!”

However, Xiao Tian didn’t seem to be with her.

The response was a strange female voice:

“Xiao Tian?”

Feng Yu Die followed the sound.

The morning light filtered through the paper window into the room. Desks and chairs carved with bas-reliefs, along with vases, were placed around, making it look like a guest quarter in some immortal’s mansion.

A Snow-clothed Guard, whom Feng Yu Die didn’t recognize, stood guard inside her room, her spear leaning beside her.

Feng Yu Die furrowed her brows and asked in confusion:

“Who are you?”

The Snow-clothed Guard’s face immediately showed a hint of panic. She quickly walked to the bedside, took a deep breath, clasped her hands in a deep bow, and said:

“Senior Feng, if it weren’t for your and Senior Golden Dragon’s help, my Senior Sister and I would have already become food for the blood python. Thank you for saving our lives!”

“Ah…”

Feng Yu Die recalled, and only then did she remember that when she encountered Gu Ming Xin, she had saved two Snow-clothed Guards. She felt a bit embarrassed and sat up, scratching the back of her head, giggling sheepishly with a blush:

“Heh heh… You’re welcome.”

Seeing her shyness, the Snow-clothed Guard was quite surprised. She quickly took out a roasted chicken from her Storage Bag.

When she returned earlier, she had specifically asked Young Master Xiao to inquire about Feng Yu Die’s preferences.

Xiao Yunluo’s words were: “What does she like? Buy her a roasted chicken and some Spirit Stones, and she’ll smile like a flower.”

Upon seeing the roasted chicken, as Xiao Yunluo had said, Feng Yu Die’s eyes immediately lit up.

Seeing this, the Snow-clothed Guard’s brow relaxed slightly:

“Senior Feng, I heard from Young Master Xiao that you like roasted chicken, so…”

But the next moment, Feng Yu Die seemed to remember something. She looked around and picked up the Storage Bag by her pillow. She poured out seven or eight roasted chickens sealed with oilcloth.

These were all given to her by Ye Anping earlier, but roasted chicken wasn’t a spiritual item and would still spoil if kept in a Storage Bag.

A rotten smell immediately assailed them.

Feng Yu Die slightly frowned, finding it a pity, but immediately realized that she had probably been asleep for a long time. She asked:

“How long have I been asleep? Where is Young Master Ye?”

The Snow-clothed Guard’s face showed a hint of nervousness. After a pause, she slowly replied:

“Ah… You’ve been asleep for seven days. As for Senior Ye…”

The Snow-clothed Guard hesitated to speak, but her expression revealed Ye Anping’s condition, causing Feng Yu Die to widen her eyes. She quickly pulled back the bedding and moved off the bed.

Feng Yu Die’s face was written all over with worry, but her body was weak. Her left hand was bandaged, and her right leg and waist were swollen, with two lumps as large as her breasts.

However, she couldn’t afford to care about that. Gritting her teeth, she forced herself to stand up from the bed.

“Ah…” The Snow-clothed Guard quickly went to support her. “Senior Feng, the doctor said you need to rest…”

Feng Yu Die’s brow hardened, and she asked seriously:

“Hiss— I’m fine. Where is Young Master Ye? What happened to him?”

“Senior Ye… the doctor said earlier that half of his meridians were shattered. His condition is dire, and he might not wake up. If it weren’t for the Heavenly Dao Golden Core and his strong physique, he would have long since returned to the Yellow Springs…”

“… …”

Feng Yu Die’s entire face went blank. She had no intention of bothering with her own injuries and quickly pulled the Snow-clothed Guard towards the outside of the room.

“Take me there.”

“Ah… but Senior Feng, you…”

“Take me there!!”

The Snow-clothed Guard flinched at the shout and no longer tried to persuade her. She quickly supported Feng Yu Die and walked out of the room, heading towards another courtyard in the Commander’s Mansion.

In the corridor, a young Apothecary Boy carried hot water, running back and forth between the rooms. Many rooms were occupied by the injured Snow-clothed Guards from this incident. The smell of blood filled the entire Commander’s Mansion.

Seeing this, Feng Yu Die felt a pang of heartache, but she didn’t pay much attention. She rushed straight to a slightly larger guest hall at the back of the Commander’s Mansion.

Just as she arrived at the entrance of the guest hall, Feng Yu Die heard Senior Sister Xiao’s voice from inside:

“Lian Xue, don’t worry. Ye Anping’s body is very strong. If all else fails, we’ll take him back to the Xuan Xing Sect, and my mother can definitely save him. You haven’t slept for seven days, go back to your room and rest for a while. I’ll stay with him…”

“Wuuu… No…”

… …

Feng Yu Die’s heart suddenly felt heavy. Without a word, she pushed open the door, causing everyone inside to look towards her.

Besides Pei Lian Xue and Xiao Yunluo, Xu Mulan and an old man with a long beard, who looked to be in his sixties, were also guarding here.

She scanned everyone’s expressions. She noticed that Pei Lian Xue’s eyes were red, as if she had been crying. Feng Yu Die immediately gritted her teeth, shook off the Snow-clothed Guard supporting her, and limped to the bedside.

“Young Master Ye…”

Ye Anping lay on the bed with his eyes tightly closed. His face was as pale as a corpse. Even Feng Yu Die couldn’t help but hold her breath.

Xiao Yunluo, standing beside him, quickly came forward to support her, lest she lose her balance and fall on Ye Anping, causing further harm.

“Second Fool, we’ve got it covered here… You should go back and lie down. Your injuries aren’t light either.”

“But…”

Just then, Xiao Tian popped its head out from Ye Anping’s chest. Seeing Feng Yu Die, it anxiously shouted:

“Yu Die, you’re awake?! Great, quickly kiss Anping!”

?

Feng Yu Die’s brows furrowed even deeper. Xiao Tian usually joked around, but in this situation, it still had the nerve to say that?

But seeing Feng Yu Die’s expression, Xiao Tian quickly shook its head and flew out to explain:

“Quickly! Listen to me! Kiss him! Hurry! I can’t hold on much longer!”

“… …”

Seeing that Feng Yu Die was still looking at it seriously, Xiao Tian anxiously stomped its feet in mid-air. Its lips moved for a long time, and it shouted:

“Yu Die! That, that, that… Yun Jiujiu!! Do you remember Yun Jiujiu?! Hurry! Hurry! Kiss Anping! He can’t hold on much longer! Hurry, hurry! Yu Die!!”

!!

Hearing the name Yun Jiujiu, Feng Yu Die finally understood Xiao Tian’s meaning.

At that time, Yun Jiujiu’s heart meridian had shattered to protect Yun Yiyi. It was also she who, following Xiao Tian’s instructions, held Yun Jiujiu and transferred her spiritual power to her, saving her.

But why a kiss? Couldn’t a hug suffice?

“Yu Die! Hurry! Anping is really going to collapse!”

Xiao Tian’s anxious expression disrupted Feng Yu Die’s thoughts. She looked at Ye Anping, slightly moistened her lips with her tongue, and then bent down.

“Second Fool…”

Xiao Yunluo, who was supporting Feng Yu Die, was confused about what she was doing. She saw her lower her head and kiss Ye Anping’s lips.

“?!”

Pei Lian Xue beside her also widened her eyes and quickly stood up from her chair, rushing forward to grab Feng Yu Die’s shoulder, trying to pull her away.

Senior Brother is being gnawed on by the Second Fool!

However, as Pei Lian Xue’s hand landed on Feng Yu Die’s back and she was about to pull her away, she saw a faint golden-green spiritual energy slowly seep into her Senior Brother’s body from the point where their lips touched.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Anping’s pale complexion, which was like that of a dead person, began to show some vitality and redness.

The doctor nearby widened his eyes, his mouth agape:

“Spring Aspect Spiritual Energy… This, this, this…”

Upon hearing this, Xu Mulan immediately grabbed the doctor’s shoulder and leaned into his ear, sternly asking:

“Did you see anything?”

The old doctor stared intently at the golden spiritual energy tinged with “green” that now enveloped Feng Yu Die and Ye Anping.

It was the Spring Aspect Spiritual Energy, widely circulated among cultivators who studied medicine, capable of saving all things.

Countless cultivators dedicated to medicine had yearned to catch a glimpse of the Spring Aspect their entire lives, yet here it was, appearing before him by chance.

But upon seeing Xu Mulan’s gaze, he quickly nodded his head:

“I saw nothing. Don’t worry, Commander Xu. I’m tight-lipped…”

“That’s good.”

“However, could you let me chat with this Fairy for a moment? This person might be able to help me reach the pinnacle of my medical practice, capable of saving millions of lives…”

Xu Mulan’s eyes showed a hint of surprise. She looked at the two people on the bed again and bit her lip slightly before nodding: “We’ll talk later.”

She didn’t know about the Spring Aspect Spiritual Energy, but hearing the old doctor’s words, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of helplessness.

Fairy Feng commands a Golden Dragon and possesses this Spring Aspect Spiritual Energy;

Young Master Xiao is the only daughter of Dan Yue Shang Xian;

The Mansion Lord Li is the Mansion Lord of Chi Long Mansion;

Even Fairy Pei is by no means an ordinary cultivator…

Among these people, she couldn’t fit in at all. But why, with so many exceptionally talented women by his side, did Young Master Ye still have his eyes on her sister?

Xu Mulan’s thoughts were in a mess. Although it was a good thing for her sister to marry into a good family, jealousy was inevitable.

Why her sister and not her?

“Alas… forget it, I’ll just consider myself unlucky.”

Xu Mulan seemed to have come to terms with it, her shoulders slumping slightly.

At this moment, Ye Anping, lying on the bed, seemed to have woken up. He slowly opened his eyes.

What greeted his vision were a pair of wide-open golden eyes.

“… …”

One breath…

Two breaths…

Three breaths…

?

Ye Anping quickly raised his hand and pushed Feng Yu Die’s face away.

The lingering residue dripped onto the bedding.

He sat up, staring blankly at Pei Lian Xue’s red eyes by the bedside, then turned to look at Xiao Yunluo, Xu Mulan, and an unknown old doctor beside him.

After a moment of thought, Ye Anping understood what had happened.

—Feng Yu Die had saved his life with her Spring Aspect Spiritual Energy.

Ye Anping, now understanding, showed a hint of a helpless wry smile.

This time, he had indeed miscalculated.

It wasn’t a miscalculation of Wu Tian Ci’s two punches, but rather Jiang Mo Jiao.

If it weren’t for Jiang Mo Jiao’s final move, those two punches from Wu Tian Ci would have at most resulted in a ten-day to half-month stint in a wheelchair.

However, a question arose…

Feng Yu Die didn’t need to transfer her Spring Aspect Spiritual Energy mouth-to-mouth.

Did he think he was Prince Charming? Did he need a kiss from a beautiful maiden to wake up?

But upon seeing Xiao Tian floating nearby, the question was resolved.

Ye Anping’s eye twitched: Xiao Tian…

“Ah…” Xiao Tian dodged his gaze warily, tapped its head, and stuck out its tongue, “Heh.”

Then, it burrowed its head into his forehead and escaped.

“… …”

The next moment, Pei Lian Xue threw herself into his arms, sobbing loudly:

“Sniff— Sniff— Senior Brother!! I’m sorry, I’m sorry! It’s all my fault!! It’s all my fault!! If I hadn’t let that Gu Cultivator get away… Sniff—”

Ye Anping looked at her helplessly, raised his hand, and rubbed the back of her head:

“It’s not your fault. It happened so suddenly, who could have predicted… Wuuu—”

“Sniff—”

Pei Lian Xue looked up tearfully, looked at her Senior Brother’s lips, and without a word, stretched out her neck and nuzzled him.

She imitated Feng Yu Die, transferring her spiritual energy to her Senior Brother.

However, feeling the spiritual energy like a tide surging into his meridians, Ye Anping immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly held her shoulders and pushed her away slightly.

“Junior Sister, that’s enough, that’s enough~ Are you going to explode your Senior Brother?”

“……”

Pei Lian Xue understood that she had made a mistake again and immediately lowered her head with guilt.

She thought for a moment, slowly moved away from Ye Anping, stood up, and turned to look at Feng Yu Die, who was standing there blankly.

“Se… Senior Sister Feng.”

Feng Yu Die snapped out of her daze, couldn’t help but shrink her head, and slowly nodded:

“En? Wh… What?”

Pei Lian Xue took a deep breath, bowed her head, and said very solemnly:

“Thank you.”

Thank you…

Thank you…

Thank…

Pei Lian Xue’s sweet voice echoed in Feng Yu Die’s mind. Her heart bloomed, and warmth spread through her chest.

This was the first time Junior Sister Pei had said thank you to her!

“Ah… No… You’re welcome. If Junior Sister Pei really feels bad and wants to express her gratitude, then how about… how about…”

Feng Yu Die pursed her lips and tentatively asked:

“How about letting Young Master Ye lend you Que Que, and I’ll have your child for you?”

？？？？？？

Six question marks instantly appeared above the heads of everyone present, except Feng Yu Die.

Seeing their reaction, Feng Yu Die awkwardly pressed her chin down and asked:

“Then… you can lend it to me, right?”

The six question marks doubled, becoming twelve.

Ye Anping sighed somewhat helplessly and said:

“Yunluo…”

“…Ah?”

“Take her back and give her some tutoring.”

Xiao Yunluo looked stunned, her expression as if asking: Why don’t you tell her? But when she saw the expressions of Xu Mulan and the old doctor beside her, her toes curled.

She didn’t know why.

It didn’t matter what Feng Yu Die did, but she felt that Feng Yu Die’s embarrassment was her own embarrassment. She immediately went forward and grabbed Feng Yu Die’s shoulder.

“Let’s go!!”

“Ah?” Feng Yu Die looked dazed. “Go where?”

“To class! Who told you all these nonsensical things? Did your Master… Senior Tai Xu not teach you when you were young?”

“…Teach what?”

“Teach you the difference between men and women, teach you where babies come from…”

Their voices gradually faded as they left the hall.

Ye Anping watched them go, feeling weary. He sighed, turned to Xu Mulan and the others, and nodded:

“Commander Xu, I still need a few days of recuperation. Please bear with me…”

“…You’re welcome.” Xu Mulan nodded with a blush. After a moment’s hesitation, she said, “Young Master Ye, Mansion Lord Li is recuperating next door. I’ve also asked the servants in the mansion to take care of him. You don’t need to worry. I have official duties to attend to, so I won’t be staying.”

Hearing this, Ye Anping was somewhat relieved. He cupped his hands in return:

“Yes, thank you…”

After cupping his hands in a farewell, Xu Mulan pulled the old doctor along and followed in the footsteps of Xiao Yunluo and the others.

After watching them leave, Pei Lian Xue walked over and closed the door of the guest hall. She then returned to the bedside and gently held Ye Anping’s hand:

“Senior Brother, I’ll stay with you. Just call me if you need anything.”

“Mm…”

Ye Anping slowly lay down, pulled the quilt up to his chin, and relaxed his body and mind.

However, only after a moment…

Pei Lian Xue bit her lip slightly, raised her eyes, and looked directly into her Senior Brother’s eyes, asking:

“Senior Brother.”

“Mm, what?”

“When did you start calling Yunluo ‘Yunluo’?”

Ding… Ding… Dong!!!

His heart, which had just relaxed, instantly tensed up again.

Ye Anping looked at Pei Lian Xue’s expressionless face and her clear, large eyes. After contemplating for a while, he decided to tell the truth:

“From when we were returning to the Hundred Lotus Sect on the boat of the Xing Tian Division from the Imperial Sect in the Central Domain…”
