The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Two Elders were sitting on wooden chairs, questioning him with solemn eyes, while Yun Yiyi was at the side with a black quill in hand, silently recording every word Zhuang Yan said.

"In the Sword Pavilion murder case, I asked Xue Xinghai to kill those inner disciples, remove one of their internal organs, and sew them together to form a demonic body. However, unexpectedly, Xue Xinghai missed one person and then met the Third Lady in the market. I sensed something was wrong and rushed to take him away, but the Eldest Lady seemed to have noticed something... and later came with Elder Hu, so I had no choice but to use the soul-searching technique to destroy Xue Xinghai\'s soul."

Zhuang Yan turned to look at Yun Yiyi with a trace of resentment and resignation in his eyes.

The two Elders nodded. "What about the Jade Snow Peak? What do you have to say?"

"In the case of the Jade Snow Peak, I wanted to take the blood essence of the Eldest and the Second Ladies to complete the demonic pill. It was going smoothly at first, but I didn\'t expect that at the last moment, two unknown young cultivators would break my alchemy furnace. They threw a Water Spirit Pearl into it, causing turbulence of the water and fire spiritual energy and the furnace exploded..."

... ...

The interrogation went on for a long time.

After all, Zhuang Yan was also an Elder of the Sword Sect, and although he had made such a big mistake, things were pretty clear now. The Elders choose not to use the soul-searching technique on him. Instead, they just asked questions one by one like a normal interrogation.

Yun Yiyi listened to the testimony, remaining silent throughout the process, taking the role of an official registrar, quietly recording on paper.

Recording the facts of the case was just a chore. Even if Zhuang Yan\'s case involved Yun Kunwu, it could be done by any high-level inner disciple.

As for why Yun Yiyi didn\'t go back to Flowing Water Peak

to rest and rather took over this matter despite being exhausted physically and mentally, it was because of the words she heard from Feng Yu Die at that time.

---"Young Master Ye!! What are you doing? You should have expected that it would be like this..."

This sentence alone was enough for her to connect everything that happened during this period.

Feng Yu Die and Ye Anping had known each other for a long time.

When Yun Jiujiu met Feng Yu Die, Yun Xi met Pei Lianxue, and she met Ye Anping.

In the initial Sword Pavilion murder case, it was Ye Anping who hinted to her that there was something wrong with Zhuang Yan.

Zhuang Yan said that two people threw a Water Spirit Pearl into the alchemy furnace. One of them was Feng Yu Die and the other was Ye Anping.

Ye Anping acted like an outsider in front of her, yet every single thing was related to him as if he controlled the whole matter from beginning to end.

Not only the events but also the people involved seemed to be mere pawns in his hands.

Yun Jiujiu fell in love with Feng Yu Die, who was disguised as a man. She heard that they met on the street by chance and did not know each other before.

When Yun Xi met Pei Lianxue, she encountered a level four demonic beast and almost died, but was saved by Pei Lianxue.

Although there was no evidence to prove her conjecture, it was the only logic that could string the whole thing together.

... ...

After listening to what Zhuang Yan said, the Elders also noticed this sketchy point, so they asked, "Zhuang Yan, you just said that two unknown young cultivators caused your demonic pill to fail the completion. Who are those two people?"

"Elder Wu, I really don\'t know the identities of those two people, but I can say that they are by no means ordinary. You could even say that if it weren\'t for those two, Kunwu would never be defeated."

"But he has been defeated. Elder Hu found the corpse of his demonic body in the forbidden area. She certified that Yun Kunwu was destroyed. After being struck by Tianxing\'s Phoenix Earth True Treasure, he was lucky to still have a corpse."

"Heh..."

When the Elder next to Elder Wu heard this, he stroked his long beard and said, "In any case, there are still unresolved issues regarding this case, and we still need to find out the identities of those two people. If they have caused such a big disturbance, we shouldn\'t leave any details unsolved, just in case... "

Elder Wu nodded. "What you said is true. I will ask the Crime Division disciples to investigate thoroughly when I return..."

At this, Yun Yiyi, who had been silent until now, hurriedly interrupted. "Elders, can you leave this matter to me?"

"Eldest Miss, you have suffered such an ordeal, so it\'s better to go back and recuperate for a while... In half a month, Patriarch Yun will come out from seclusion, and by then..."

No, she absolutely must not let the Elders investigate!

Although Yun Yiyi felt that Ye Anping should not have left any hints, what if he did?

What if Ye Anping missed out something and the Elders found out that he was the one helping behind the scenes?

Even if he had merits in this matter, he still violated the Sword Sect\'s rules, interfering in the sect\'s internal affairs as an outsider.

The best outcome would be that the merits and demerits would be offset, and he could be released after a few dozen days of imprisonment.

However, if the Elders wanted to impose a harsh sentence, they could also transport him to the Southern Region Crime Division for questioning, and he could be punished for at least several decades.

Yun Yiyi gritted her teeth slightly and said, "I have some clues about the identities of those two people, so I would like to ask you to leave this matter to me. In less than half a month, I can find out the whereabouts of those people."

The two Elders paused, and seeing her determination, they finally nodded in agreement. "Eldest Lady, since you are so determined, then we\'ll leave it to you."

"Alright, then I will go back and organize the documents." Yun Yiyi answered as she stood up, cupping her hands. "I will send the compiled documents to the Crime Division in a few days."

"Eldest Lady, rest well. Don\'t get tired..."

Yun Yiyi nodded, quickly stacked up the dozens of slips she had written, and walked out of the stone room.

When passing by Xue Xinghai\'s cell, she stopped for a moment and glanced inside through the gap in the iron grill. She could see the former master of the Sword Pavilion looking over with innocent eyes. "Aba Aba... Baba..."

"..."

Yun Yiyi smiled bitterly and shook her head, then continued toward the elevator and the entrance platform.

... ...

At dusk, the outline of the distant mountain peaks was dyed with a golden hue.

Escorted by two Sword Sect disciples, Yun Yiyi flew with her sword to the Flowing Water Peak, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

---Ye Anping had been lying to her from beginning to end! He was never interested in her at all, and never regarded her as his fiancée.

I can\'t get it up, he said!! Let\'s wait until after the wedding, he said!

Yun Yiyi reckoned that Ye Anping would definitely abandon her and leave after she returned.

"... Having come to the Sword Sect, do you think you can flee without leaving anything behind?!"

"?" "?"

Behind her, the two escorting disciples were confused. "Eldest Miss, what did you say?"

"Hoo--"

Yun Yiyi closed her eyes and let out a heavy breath. She twisted the flying sword under her feet, turned around, and headed toward the Middle Peak.

"I\'m going to the Middle Peak to get some pills."

Still confused, the two disciples following her asked, "Eldest Miss, we can go on your behalf. What pills do you need?"

"..."

Yun Yiyi ignored them and accelerated toward the Middle Peak. She only thought to herself: You deceived my feelings first, so don\'t blame me for tricking you as well!

If you can get out of bed tomorrow, don\'t call me Yun Yiyi!
