The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

After informing Xiao Yunluo and Feng Yu Die, they left the Black Star Sect and headed toward the Dragon House.

Xiao Yunluo didn\'t say anything and readily agreed to allow her companion to leave. However, after he left, she sourly chopped down all the bamboo trees near the house.

As for Feng Yu Die, when Pei Lianxue talked to her, she hugged her thigh and cried and wanted to go with her. In the end, she was severely beaten by Pei Lianxue.

Anyway, they were going to meet Feng Yu Die and Xiao Yunluo in the Dragon House later...

...

Rumble---

After a muffled thunder in the sky, it began to rain heavily.

At the Clear River\'s pier, the peddlers ran back and forth, covering their heads, and the large and small boats docked at the river bank rose and fell with the waves.

Holding a waxed paper umbrella, Ye Anping stood at the bow of a painted boat, staring at the small ferries hurrying into the dock in the distance.

Beside him, Pei Lianxue happily ate the baked sweet potato she had just bought on the street.

Another month had passed in the blink of an eye, and the brother and sister had smoothly traveled from the Black Star Sect to Clear River City, which was only about thirty miles away from the Dragon House

.

Seeing that there was only a small piece of sweet potato left, Pei Lianxue hesitated for a while, looked at her brother, then reached out to his mouth.

"Brother, I saved this for you."

"It\'s okay, you can eat it. I\'m not hungry."

"Alright..." Pei Lianxue nodded, and following his gaze into the distance, she said, "Brother, we have been waiting here for three days."

"Are you bored?"

"No..."

Ye Anping turned around and saw that Pei Lianxue still had two small crumbs of sweet potato left on her mouth, so he reached out and brushed them off with his index finger.

Seeing his action, Pei Lianxue was slightly startled, thinking that he was going to eat the sweet potato from her mouth, but with a gesture, Ye Anping flicked the crumbs into the turbulent river.

"..."

Pei Lianxue sighed helplessly and asked, "Brother, who are we waiting for?"

"The Young Master of the Dragon Slayer Society."

"Who?"

"He is a young master, remember. Don\'t kill him, just knock him out. As for the guard, also try not to take his life. It\'s better to leave a way out. But if the guard\'s cultivation is above the Foundation Building middle stage, don\'t hesitate to kill him."

"Oh..."

Pei Lianxue nodded, only half understanding. Although she had absolutely no idea why her brother wanted to rob the young master of the so-called Dragon Slayer Society, she just needed to follow his instructions, and she didn\'t need to use her brain at all.

---Her brother was her brain.

Ye Anping sighed lightly and continued to look toward the river under the heavy rain.

After a while, a small ferry that could carry no more than thirty people appeared on the river. Ye Anping closed his eyes, breathed out, and used his spiritual sense to scan it.

In an instant, thirty faces entered his mind.

"Here they come, sister. Cover your face."

"Ah, alright!"

They looked at each other and, in synchronized moves, pulled black cloth masks from their storage bags and covered their faces before jumping from the boat onto the pier.

...

Meanwhile, on the little ferry.

A boy, who appeared to be about sixteen, lay over a wooden barrel with a pale face.

The young man, named Jiang Yu, was a cultivator at the fourth level of the Qi Refining stage.

His father was the twenty-seventh guild leader of the Dragon Slayer Society. Unfortunately, he passed away two months ago after reaching the end of his life, so the title of the leader fell to him.

Therefore, Jiang Yu, who originally practiced in the forest, had to come out of the mountain and go to the Dragon Slayer Society in Duchun City to take up the position of Young Master.

Beside Jiang Yu, an older man smiled cheerfully and stepped forward to pat him on the back.

"Young Master, are you still seasick even though you are at the fourth level of Qi Refining?"

"...retch--"

Jiang Yu glared at him and said, "I\'m only at the fourth level of Qi Refining...why can\'t I be seasick? I haven\'t even learned to wield a sword yet."

"We will arrive at Clear River docks soon. Young Master, we agreed that I would escort you to the inn in the Clear River City. After you reach the inn, I will leave."

"Hmm... ugh---"

Jiang Yu vomited again, then took out a small pouch of spirit stones from his sleeve and handed it to the man.

The man took the pouch and weighed it, then shook his head. After that, he put it into his storage bag and sat aside without speaking.

As soon as the ferry docked, Jiang Yu shakily climbed ashore along the edge of the boat, quickly opened a waxed paper umbrella, and looked toward the Clear River City.

Due to the heavy rain, the city was overcast, and the streets were deserted.

"Whew-- let\'s go."

Jiang Yu sighed and prepared to find a nearby inn. However, just as he was walking down a street, a boy about the same height as him suddenly stepped out from an alley.

At first, he didn\'t pay much attention, but after the young man confronted him and pulled out a sword from his storage bag, Jiang Yu suddenly realized that he seemed to have met a gangster.

Taken aback, he stopped and looked at the guard he hired, who was in the early stage of the Foundation Building.

"Hey! Aren\'t you going to do something?"

"Huh?" The man guarding him reacted slowly. Seeing the young man blocking the way, he suddenly frowned, "Did you really encounter a robbery?"

"What do you mean by really encounter? Didn\'t I hire you just to meet such dangers?... Bah!! I hired you to do something at times like this."

"..."

The guard frowned harder, then took out a long sword from the storage bag and walked in front of Jiang Yu, shielding him.

He scanned the young man in front of him with his spiritual sense and said, "Fellow cultivator, you are also in the early stage of Foundation Building, same as me. If we fight, we will probably both lose. This young master doesn\'t have many spirit stones on him, so it is not worth robbing him."

The young man listened to his speech, and after a pause, he replied, "...You are truly a role model as a guard."

"What?"

"My accomplice is behind you."

Hearing this, the guard was shocked and quickly turned his head to look behind. However, he was met with an iron rod in his face.

The guard was hit by the rod and flew for more than 20 feet. His eyes rolled up as he smashed directly into the wall.

Jiang Yu watched how the guard that he had spent a fortune to hire was dealt with in one go just like this, and the waxed paper umbrella in his hand also fell to the ground.

He glanced at the masked woman who appeared unnoticed in front of him at some point, took a deep breath, and hit the ground with his knees.

"Senior! Two seniors!! Please don\'t kill me! I only have two hundred spirit stones and a few bottles of Spirit Gathering pills left, you guys take it all!!!"

Ye Anping came forward and squatted down to comfort him. "Young Master Jiang Yu, I am also a young master. Let me give you a suggestion, you should always keep a calm mind."

"What?" Jiang Yu was slightly startled. "Do you know me?"

"Hmm."

Ye Anping shrugged, then waved his hand in front of him.

A light flashed across Jiang Yu\'s eyes, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Ye Anping quickly took off the small pouch from his waist and looked inside.

"The token, the letter, well... it\'s all there, okay."

After confirming what was inside, he put the small pouch into his storage bag, then took out about twenty spirit stones and placed them on Jiang Yu\'s chest. He then stood up and looked at Pei Lianxue.

"Sister, we\'re done. Let\'s find an inn to rest."

"Yes..." Pei Lianxue nodded, glanced at Jiang Yu lying on the ground, and asked, "Brother, what are we doing?"

"For the next few months, my name will be Jiang Yu."

"Oh..." Pei Lianxue paused and asked, "What about me?"

"You are my cultivation partner. As for the name, just use your real name. When Sister Xiao and the others arrive, they will probably get the general idea and act accordingly."

"Cu... Cultivation partner?" Pei Lianxue widened her eyes.

Seeing her reaction, Ye Anping was taken aback and tried to retract his words, "How about a stepsister? The main reason was that the status of a cultivator couple is easier to justify."

"No... it\'s okay." Pei Lianxue shook her head desperately. "Cultivator couple is good, yes... cultivator couple."
