The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix-Chapter 506 - Brother, Meet Jiujiu
One day ago—
It was a windy night in a dark eerie forest about a hundred miles away from Heavenly Sorrow City.
Boom—
"Die for me—!"
With a loud noise like an earthquake and a curse in the southern dialect, dozens of trees were uprooted by Yun Jiujiu's giant sword.
Yun Jiujiu panted heavily. She put the giant sword that had smashed the ground back on her shoulder, looked at the demonic cultivator in front of her with contempt, then sneered disdainfully before hurrying forward to check the man's storage bag.
Yun Jiujiu knew her own limitations. If it was just a fight to kill a demonic cultivator, she could easily do it. As long as they weren't more than one level higher than her, she could kill as many as they came.
However, the task she received was to find out information about Heavenly Sorrow City.
She couldn't do this kind of work.
The only way she could think of was to find demonic cultivators around Heavenly Sorrow City to kill, and then search their storage bags to see if there was anything useful.
Yun Jiujiu squatted in front of the demonic cultivator's corpse, reached into his storage bag, and took out a thing that looked like a jade rod. Suddenly, her face scrunched in disgust, and she quickly threw the stick aside, wiping her hands on her clothes. "Damn, bad luck! Too gross--"
Yun Jiujiu cursed and then sat down on the ground, a little discouraged. She looked up at the crescent moon in the sky that was dyed red by the evil aura of the Eastern Region, and she inexplicably thought of Feng Yu Die.
"If that No-bird was here, it would be better. Alas, I don't know what happened between her and that guy Ye? Tsk tsk tsk..."
As Yun Jiujiu was looking at the moon and thinking about her old friend, the sound of footsteps came from a tree behind her.
Chang Long looked at Yun Jiujiu who was sitting on the ground, with a slightly nervous expression, but the other two people beside him kept hinting at him with their eyes. After a while, he spoke. "Second Miss."
"What?"
"It's useless to kill these little demonic cultivators outside the city. We haven't found out anything yet, so I just thought..."
"Go ahead."
"...How about we pretend to be demonic cultivators and sneak into Heavenly Sorrow City to get information?"
Yun Jiujiu looked at him like he was a fool and said with disdain while pointing at her face, "Do you think I look like a demonic cultivator?"
"Uh..." Chang Long was taken aback, and he turned to look at the demonic cultivator that Yun Jiujiu had just killed. "Second Miss, why don't you wear this guy's clothes and dress up? I think it should be okay."
"The hell I will!"
Guo Zhiruo and Hu Renyi quickly joined in, saying, "Second Miss, I think it should be okay for you to dress up. Just pretend to be a Seductive cultivator... You are naturally beautiful, so if you put on some eye shadow or something, it shouldn't be too obvious. We could also place some demonic cultivator's magic tools on our bodies..."
"Yes, I also think Brother Chang's idea is feasible."
"Yes, let Sister Guo help you dress up. If you can't get in, we can just run away..."
...Yun Jiujiu felt that this idea was simply jumping into a trap. These three people were disciples of Yun Xi's Night Tide Peak. She brought them out of Seven Star City, and she had to consider their safety above all.
Therefore, she didn't quite agree with Chang Long's idea.
But in the end, she could not resist the three people's nagging persuasion.
After they persuaded her for an hour, Yun Jiujiu finally decided to give it a try. The next morning, she let Guo Zhiruo put on makeup for her and brought the three of them to the gate of Heavenly Sorrow City.
After kicking open the gate of the tower, Yun Jiujiu saw that all the demonic cultivators inside were looking at her. From their stares, it was obvious that they had seen through her identity as an immortal cultivator.
She glanced sideways, preparing to draw her sword to demolish the tower and then run away with the three people behind her. "I told you yesterday that we can't get in... This group of Foundation Building demonic cultivators has already seen through my disguise. Let's kill a few and run away..."
Hearing this, Chang Long, who was following behind her, blushed and said quickly, "Second Miss, I don't think they saw through it..."
Guo Zhiruo also hurriedly joined in. "Second Miss, I think these demonic cultivators are only staring because you are too beautiful now, and you look like a Seductive cultivator..."
Yun Jiujiu glanced at her speechlessly.
At this time, a city guard in the Core Formation stage came out from the inner room, bowed, and asked in a friendly manner, "You, sister from the Hedonistic Sect, are you here to apply for a permit to enter the city?"
Yun Jiujiu looked at the man warily, but before she could speak, Chang Long stepped forward and answered on her behalf. "Yes, yes, yes, we are here to enter the city. This is Elder Feng from the Hedonistic Sect."
"...Oh, it turns out to be Elder Feng from the Hedonistic Sect." The city guard smiled affably, took out a token from his storage bag, and handed it over to her. "Since you are an Elder of the Hedonistic Sect, you don't need to be examined here, just take the token and enter the city directly."
?
Yun Jiujiu took the jade token that the man handed over and looked at it, confused.
At this moment, she felt that the city guard was simply useless. He didn't check her identity, nor did he use magic tools to detect her spiritual roots. She just said one sentence and he already gave her the entry token?
Yun Jiujiu couldn't help it and asked, "You're giving me the token without verifying my identity?"
The city guard was slightly stunned when he heard it, and he hurriedly explained, "You are a Nascent Soul cultivator, how would I dare casually examine you? There is a City Lord here, I think no immortal cultivator would dare sneak into the city, right? Besides, you don't look like an immortal cultivator, Elder Feng..."
?
She doesn't look like an immortal cultivator?!
Yun Jiujiu's eyes widened, and she was inexplicably annoyed. This person actually insulted her that she didn't look like an immortal cultivator?!
She suddenly had the urge to chop this demonic cultivator, but Guo Zhiruo beside her quickly helped. "Elder Feng, immortal cultivators are not as charming as you."
Charming? Yun Jiujiu felt that everyone present had eye problems. But before she could say anything, the city guard bowed and turned back to the inner room.
Guo Zhiruo and the other two exchanged glances and half-heartedly pushed Yun Jiujiu through the gate.
After arriving at a place with few people on the street, Yun Jiujiu turned to look at the three disciples and pulled the Hedonistic Sect's uniform on her body. "Do I really look like a demonic cultivator now?"
Chang Long nodded. "Absolutely."
Guo Zhiruo pretended to check her up. "Second Miss, you are now like a Seductive cultivator who has suppressed three thousand men..."
Hu Renyi also nodded. "Yes, I agree with Sister Guo. That's how you look."
"???"
Yun Jiujiu listened to the three of them, her mouth opening and closing several times, but she just couldn't squeeze out a word. There happened to be a puddle of water on the ground next to her, so she looked down at her reflection.
Although she was now wearing the uniform of a Hedonistic Sect cultivator, because she was short and had no breasts and no buttocks, she basically had no chance of being called a "Seductive cultivator".
Although her hair was down now, and Guo Zhiruo painted her with dark purple eyeshadow, she certainly did not look like a "demonic cultivator", but more like a little girl who secretly used her mother's make-up and clothes to dress herself up.
"Where do you see that I look like a seductress?!"
Guo Zhiruo and the others shrugged and answered in unison. "Second Miss, we all think you do. And didn't the city guard think you look like one just now..."
"Yes, he gave you the entry token when he saw you like this and didn't even check your identity."
"That's right."
Yun Jiujiu seemed dispirited at the moment. However, looking at the three people's expressions, she didn't know what to think. Could it be that these three teamed up to deceive her?
But what would be the purpose of deceiving her?
To sell her to the demonic cultivators?
Yun Jiujiu thought it was unlikely.
These people, Chang Long, Hu Renyi, and Guo Zhiruo, she had met them a few times before in the Sword Sect. They were Yun Xi's Night Tide Peak disciples and had entered the Moon Shadow Sword Sect's inner ranks to cultivate more than twenty years ago. freēwēbnovel.com
Moreover, these three people were the followers that Yun Xi had asked Zhang Yihe to arrange for her.
Yun Xi couldn't possibly collude with the demonic cultivators to sell her out, right?
Yun Jiujiu kept feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't find the problem after thinking about it carefully. The only problem might be that these people's eyesight was not good today.
"Second Miss, let's go into the city, okay? Once we get the news, we will flee immediately!"
Yun Jiujiu frowned and thought for a while. After all, if it really didn't work, they could just run away. Even if she encountered a demonic cultivator in the Deification stage, she was confident that she could escape.
In the end, Yun Jiujiu said, "I'll go in alone. If something goes wrong, I can get out by myself."
Guo Zhiruo waved her hands quickly. "Ah, but..."
"What but? I brought you out here, so I have to bring you back safely. Who knows who we'll meet once we enter the city? Even if there's a problem, I'm confident that I can get out by myself. You three just wait outside the city."
"..." "..." "..."
"If I don't come out in three days, you can go back to Seven Star City and tell my sister about it. Do you understand?"
The three people nodded worriedly. "Hmm..."
Yun Jiujiu glanced at the three of them, then took out the wine gourd from her storage bag and took a sip. After that, she jumped on the flying sword of the demonic cultivator she had robbed earlier and flew toward the rugged town in the natural ravine.
After watching her fly away, Guo Zhiruo and the others breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other. "Second Miss is still so single-minded, haha... She is so easy to fool."
"The disciples of Sword Wine Peak are all stubborn. So what should we do now? How about finding a place to drink? I have been in the Sword Sect for more than twenty years. I haven't drunk the blood wine of the demonic cultivators for a long time. How about taking this opportunity..."
"Okay, let's go. But then again. What kind of luck does Second Miss have? She brought three people out, and all three turned out to be demonic cultivators spies... Who arranged this?"
"I heard that the Third Miss helped arrange it..."
Chang Long shrugged. "Originally there was a fourth person, Brother Liu. But the Second Miss felt that there were too many, so she left Brother Liu in Seven Star City. Otherwise, she would have brought four demonic cultivator spies to inquire about the demonic cultivators..."
… …
The main street of Heavenly Sorrow City was crowded with people, and groups of city guards stood with weapons in their hands. There were also demonic cultivators flying back and forth in the sky.
In front of the window on the second floor of a wine shop on the main street, Ye Anping calmly shook the wine glass filled with blood wine, and his ears were filled with Gong Yimo's constant bragging about himself.
This fellow seemed to be unaware of the principle of not showing off one's wealth. He told him without hiding anything, where and what opportunity he had obtained.
Ye Anping listened in one ear and out the other, nodding from time to time to show that he was listening.
Gong Yimo had been talking for a long time when suddenly, he stopped and looked out the window. "Oh~ here it comes!"
"..."
Ye Anping's shaking wine glass suddenly stopped, and he looked down, only to see Yun Jiujiu walking in the middle of the street, causing all the demonic cultivators on the street to dodge to the sides.
Looking at her, Ye Anping's eyes twitched.
"..."
Gong Yimo had a playful smile as he said, "This Sword Sect's Second Miss really lives up to her reputation. She actually thinks that all demonic cultivators are idiots who can't tell that she's an immortal cultivator? Heh..."
Ye Anping now really agreed with Gong Yimo's opinion and nodded. "...Indeed."
Gong Yimo smiled and looked back at Ye Anping, saying insincerely, "Although it is a trap, it is a bit boring to capture her like this."
"So what do you have in mind?"
"I heard that the Second Lady of the Moon Shadow Sword Sect is born with supernatural power and has the best abilities among the three ladies of the sect. Are you interested in fighting with her, Brother Liang?"
"..."
Ye Anping frowned, immediately understanding what he meant. This guy wanted to use Yun Jiujiu to test his strength.
After all, the upper and lower limits between Nascent Soul cultivators were still very high.
"So, you want to use her to test me?"
"It's too much to say to test." Gong Yimo waved his hand with a smile. "Just think of it as finding some fun for you, Brother Liang. Besides, you are also a Sword cultivator. In the future, you will work in Heavenly Sorrow City, and of course, I need to know your strengths before arranging a position for you."
"Heh..."
"But, please rest assured, Brother Liang. If there is any accident, I will personally help."
Ye Anping thought about it and decided to agree.
After all, if he refused, Gong Yimo would most likely ask other Nascent Soul or Deification-stage cultivators in the city to take action. Those demonic cultivators wouldn't control their strength like him.
Coincidentally, he also wanted to get Gong Yimo's appreciation for his next actions.
"No need to help."
Saying that, Ye Anping stood up and placed the steaming bloody wine on the table. He took out Bai Yue from his storage bag, looked out the window, then walked down the stairs to the first floor of the wine shop and strode to the middle of the street to face Yun Jiujiu, who was swaggering toward him.
