The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix-Chapter 450 - Brother Felt Something
It was unknown how long had passed in the void realm.
However, in the cave on the Moon Spring Peak, it was but a mere blink of an eye.
...
In the cave on the Moon Spring Peak, the parrot stood on the windowsill, pecking at its rice. When Old Madam Si was summoned beyond the veil curtain, it just saw her closing her eyes and exhaling. Then, suddenly, a dark and thunderous expression appeared on her face. The parrot was so scared that the rice fell out of its beak.
The parrot immediately turned around and spread its wings, flying out the window while shouting, "Her hair stands up in anger!! Her hair stands up in anger!!"
"Young Master, be careful!! Young Master, be careful!!"
The drake-like quacking echoed from the courtyard inside the cave...
Not long after, Qiu Shuirou, who was tending the garden, heard the ruckus and rushed over. After knocking on the door twice, she pushed it open and entered.
However, seeing her Little Miss' face now, which was as green as sprouting grass, Qiu Shuirou was also scared out of her wits. She quickly ran over to fetch some melon seeds and tea and leaned over to her side, asking softly, "Little Miss, eat some sugar-fried melon seeds to cool off. What happened?"
Si Xuanji grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into her mouth, her cheeks bulging. She spat the shells into the plate, then chewed and swallowed the seeds. "Where is Ye Anping?"
"Uh... he should be cultivating on Heavenly Cloud Peak. Young Master Ye came earlier and brought these melon seeds that were fried by him. I said you were in seclusion and didn't let him in."
Si Xuanji paused for a moment and looked at the plate of melon seeds beside her. She couldn't tell whether it was because Ye Anping's cooking was good or because the plate of melon seeds was fried by him that it was really fragrant...
Anyway, this plate of fried melon seeds made her anger dissipate a lot.
Sun Juehu, that stinky bitch, used Ye Anping's portrait to annoy her last time, and now she was just clinging to him, knowing that he was very important to her. She actually said in front of all the heads of the immortal sects that he had the Spring Phase energy.
Over the past few thousand years, there had been countless people who had annoyed her, which were recorded in her little notebook.
Now, she was ready to record Sun Juehu in the first row and first column of her notebook!
However, there was nothing she could do about it.
She had an old feud with the Sun family of the Northern Region.
The death of Sun Juehu's master was indeed related to her. This was not a secret in the Immortal Family.
Now that Sun Juehu knew Ye Anping was her weakness, she would naturally use this to set her up.
"Heh..."
Si Xuanji let out a breath and gradually calmed down.
Who was right and who was wrong about what happened back then?
Because she was the one standing at the end, she was naturally the one who was right in the four regions.
However, for thousands of years, the new had replaced the old, and wasn't it always a hero killing a hero?
The Sun Clan leader was only slightly inferior to her, but he was still an immortal cultivator who could obtain the title of "Immortal Venerable".
Initially, Si Xuanji didn't want to argue with Sun Juehu. It was okay to have a small fight with her, bicker, or be sarcastic, but Sun Juehu had obviously crossed the line now.
---The time has come to make an end.
A gentle breeze blew into the room from the window, lifting the black-and-white hair draped on her thin shoulders. Her yin-and-yang eyes burst with murderous intent, causing Qiu Shuirou to feel a chill on her back and hastily step back.
Si Xuanji closed her eyes and slowly exhaled before jumping off the long couch.
The grudge against Sun Juehu was, by no means, something that could be easily broken overnight.
Right now, she had to go and warn Ye Anping...
Si Xuanji could guess that Ye Anping must have his own plans and had made all the preparations, but he had never told her about them. What if he missed something?
"I'm going to Heavenly Cloud Peak."
"Ah... Then, I'll..."
Before Qiu Shuirou could finish her words, Si Xuanji used the escape technique to transform into a little light and disappear from the cave.
...
In just a moment, Si Xuanji, who was dressed in the sect master's immortal robe, appeared in the bamboo forest next to the three-house compound on Heavenly Cloud Peak.
---Was Shuirou going to say something just now?
"Forget it..."
Si Xuanji shrugged and walked forward.
She only took a few steps when there was a sudden noise not far away. freeweɓnovel.cøm
Whoosh---
A stream of water like a green coiling snake, shuttled between green bamboos that were dozens of feet high in the forest.
"Ah?!"
At this moment, Xiao Yunluo was practicing water element spells in the forest. When she saw Si Xuanji suddenly appear in the sect master's official robe, she was startled.
The water snake shuttling between the bamboos instantly turned into a whip, cutting the bamboo stems in half and swinging at Si Xuanji.
?
Bang--Sa...
Si Xuanji thought Xiao Yunluo was going to "kill her mother". She raised her eyebrows, flicked her fingers lightly, and swept the water snake that was crashing toward her into a splash.
Si Xuanji turned to look at Xiao Yunluo, and seeing her look of astonishment, she understood what was going on and began to scold her. "Don't let your mind wander when performing the elements techniques! If it wasn't me, but an ordinary disciple, he would have been cut in half by your spell."
"Ah... I'm sorry... Mother..."
"...Master."
Xiao Yunluo could tell that Si Xuanji was in a bad mood, but she didn't know what had happened, so she didn't reply. She could only nod and adjust her address mode. "Yes... I'm sorry, Master."
Si Xuanji sighed slightly and sized Xiao Yunluo up. She could tell that she had already reached the middle stage of the Core Formation and was about to enter the late stage of the Core Formation in just a month and a half. She understood that this girl definitely ate a lot of Ye Anping's food.
And she had been holding back for a month and a half, fearing that Ye Anping's rice bowl was empty!
This girl wasn't sympathetic to her husband at all...
"Dual cultivation should be done with moderation. What if the milk cow is exhausted?"
"?"
This was the first time Si Xuanji had brought up such a topic, and Xiao Yunluo felt extremely embarrassed. Her toes curled in her embroidered shoes as she lowered her head sheepishly.
"Mother... Master, what are you talking about..."
"Don't think I don't know what kind of messy books you usually read. If you move your butt, I know what you are thinking."
Xiao Yunluo felt so embarrassed that she wanted to dig into the ground and hide.
"Ah... I... I..."
"Forget it, is Ye Anping in the yard?"
"Yes... Yes."
"Continue with the practice."
Si Xuanji sighed and walked barefoot to the house outside the bamboo forest.
Seeing her dressed in the sect master's robe and looking for Ye Anping, Xiao Yunluo thought that she was going to confess her identity. She suddenly came back to her senses and asked, "Mother... Master, are you going to tell Anping?"
"Eh?"
Si Xuanji was stunned for a moment. Following Xiao Yunluo's line of sight, she looked at herself, then suddenly realized that Qiu Shuirou was trying to get her clothes just now...
---Sun Juehu annoyed her so much at the Immortal Summoning Order that she forgot to change her clothes.
She thought for a moment, then walked back to Xiao Yunluo, raised her head, and moved closer, her hands opening slightly.
?
Xiao Yunluo was puzzled. Thinking it was a hug, she opened her arms in response.
Then, Si Xuanji stripped her of her clothes, leaving her only in her underwear, changed her clothes in front of her, and threw her a blanket to cover with.
"I'll return it to you later."
Then, she left Xiao Yunluo squatting there, wrapped in a blanket, as she walked quickly toward the house where Ye Anping lived.
Si Xuanji arrived at the redwood courtyard door and raised her hand, about to knock on the door. However, after a moment, she decided to surprise Ye Anping. She bypassed the restrictions set around the courtyard and jumped in.
In the courtyard, the spring breeze swept the tender leaves, and weeds had grown on both sides of the stone table under the tree, creating a peaceful scenery.
Si Xuanji glanced around, and when her eyes fell on the window sill of the west wing, her slightly frowned eyebrows relaxed.
Ye Anping was sitting at a table by the window, concentrating on writing something on paper with an ink pen. Sometimes he shook his head, and sometimes he rested the pen on his chin.
Si Xuanji watched him for a while, then formed a hand seal to conceal her presence. She walked to the window sill, jumped up lightly, sat down sideways, and was about to poke him mischievously.
Then, she saw the severed hand that kept wriggling toward the edge of the table.
"..."
Gu Mingxin's hand was twisting around with no idea of what it was doing. When it was about to fall off the edge of the table, Ye Anping would reach out and pull it back. With a frown, he asked, "Aren't you bored?"
Si Xuanji tilted her head and looked at the paper in front of Ye Anping, and her eyes filled with surprise. On the paper were the names of all the Elders above the Nascent Soul stage and those who were closely related to the Zu Yuan.
At this moment, Ye Anping suddenly raised his head and looked toward her, narrowing his eyes slightly.
"..."
Si Xuanji initially thought that he had discovered her, but after thinking about it, he probably wouldn't be able to see through her invisibility spell with his cultivation. However, the next moment, Ye Anping suddenly reached out to her chest, scaring her so much that she hurriedly dropped from the windowsill to dodge.
?!
"Hmm..."
Ye Anping stared in her direction for a while before picking up his pen and continuing to write...
Si Xuanji let out a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, she felt at ease. It seemed that there was no need for her to interfere in Zu Yuan's matter. Ye Anping already had his own ideas.
---I'll wait for you to enter the Nascent Soul stage...
Si Xuanji shook her head slowly and left the yard with the breeze.
...
There was no sound in the courtyard except for the soft chirping of some spring birds.
Xiao Tian was like a headless fly, probing through the courtyard. From time to time, she scratched the back of her head. After a few rounds, she returned to the window and said uncertainly, "Anping, it seems to be gone, I just felt something there..."
Mrs. Si...
Ye Anping guessed in his heart.
Just now, when he was perfecting the plan, he suddenly felt that the breeze caressing his face had stopped. It was as if something was blocking the window, so he looked that way a few times.
Xiao Tian, ??who was sparing with Gu Mingxin's hand, seemed to have noticed something and suddenly said, "Anping, I feel something is at the window!"
Xiao Tian's spiritual sense was stronger than his and Feng Yu Die's. Since she said that, it must be something.
Come to think of it, the only person who could bypass this compound's restriction system and also make it almost impossible for even Xiao Tian to see their true identity, was Si Xuanji.
The old woman actually came to spy on him!
So disrespectful!
Ye Anping chuckled. Seeing that Xiao Tian couldn't find anything, ??he knew that Si Xuanji had most likely left. He propped his face and smiled.
"Xiao Tian, tell me, how good are you now?"
Xiao Tian seemed to be waiting for him to say this to show off. Suddenly, she smiled crookedly and put her hands on her hips proudly. "Hmph~ Anping. There's the saying, 'If you don't see a scholar for three days, you should look at him with new eyes'."
Ye Anping nodded. "And then?"
"I have been in seclusion for a month. Do you think I was sleeping?!"
Xiao Tian tossed her hair and walked over to Gu Mingxin's hand lying on the table. She stood in a horse stance, performed some preparatory movements as if dealing cards, then raised her leg, kicking Gu Mingxin's hand.
"Ha! Kick!"
Gu Mingxin's hand was kicked away a few millimeters. It felt as if it was being pressed by a stronger fly, and it quickly twisted...
Ye Anping looked at her as if dark clouds were gathering on his brow. "Well... I saw it. You kicked Sister Gu's hand for an hour. Is there anything else?"
"Huh, huh~ Of course!"
Xiao Tian smirked but did not fly. Instead, she walked to the pen rack on the table and grabbed a pen with both hands like a barbell. Holding her breath, she lunged forward and lifted the pen.
"..."
Ye Anping was a little surprised. After all, this pen was made of pure jade. Even he could feel its weight in his hand. To Xiao Tian, it must be like a huge rock.
Xiao Tian's face was flushed, and she held the jade pen for only two breaths before her whole body began to tremble.
But... she succeeded!
"Wow..."
Seeing Ye Anping's surprised expression, Xiao Tian looked pleased and even felt refreshed. She threw down the jade pen she had raised and panted. "Huh... Huh... How was it?!"
"Awesome."
Xiao Tian grinned, narrowed her eyes halfway, and asked again, "Did you notice any changes in me?"
"..."
Ye Anping was silent for a while, his gaze moving back and forth between the pen and Xiao Tian. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him...
It shouldn't be!
He reached out, pinching Xiao Tian's round face with his index finger and thumb, making it look like a bun.
"Woo--"
"..."
Ye Anping squeezed, then withdrew his hand. After a moment of silence, endless contemplation appeared in his eyes...
Although it felt like cotton and not meat, it could still be squeezed...
"Anping, what does this expression of yours mean?"
"...That's really awesome."
With a stiff smile on his face, Ye Anping rubbed Xiao Tian's head with his fingers and sighed earnestly. "Sigh..."
After some thought, Ye Anping suddenly had an idea and asked, "Can someone who can't see you touch you?"
"Ah, that won't work. Except for you, Yu Die, and the one named Gu, all other living creatures pass through me. Hehe... But now I can lift stones to help you hit others in the future!"
Ye Anping shook his head gently. "Hmm... it's a little useful, but not much."
