Chapter 128: Junior sister can teleport
The sound of rain hitting the eaves intensified. It was almost midnight, and the activity in Jiang Mansion was gradually diminishing. Most of the maids and attendants had returned to their rooms to rest. Alone, Ye Anping stood under the courtyard, gazing through the dense night rain at the lights on the top of Chilong Mountain in the distance. He prayed silently, hoping Feng Yudie wouldn’t arrive at Jiang Mansion riding a flying sword.
If Feng Yudie didn’t show up today, it would mean that Li Longling had successfully persuaded Li Feng. In that case, the Chilong Mansion incident could conclude perfectly. The blood sacrifice formation wouldn’t activate, and the Chilong Conference would proceed as planned. As the clock approached midnight, Ye Anping felt a sense of relief. He believed that Li Longling had succeeded. He sighed and planned to return to his room, awaiting his junior sister after she finished bathing, ready to rest. However, as Ye Anping took a few steps towards the bedroom, a sound pierced through the sky.
Feng Yudie, drenched in the rain, landed on a flying sword beside the courtyard. Seeing Ye Anping, she hurriedly approached.
“Young Master Ye, Junior Sister Li has been…”
Before Feng Yudie could finish, Ye Anping preemptively spoke, “Li Feng has locked up Young Master Li, and Li Feng is about to take action?”
“Ah…” Feng Yudie’s head recoiled slightly, nodding with surprise. “Yes! How did you know?”
“You came to find me, indicating that something went wrong,” Ye Anping sighed, pointed his finger like a sword, and tossed a towel from his storage bag to Feng Yudie.
“Wipe your head.”
Feng Yudie took the towel, wrapping it around her hair and rubbing it while continuing to inquire, “What should we do then?”
“Go indirectly.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Yudie’s head shrank. She had initially thought Ye Anping had a clever plan, but it turned out that he intended to confront Li Feng head-on.
“Ah?!”
“Ah, what?”
“No… Do you mean we have to confront Li Feng directly?”
“Yes.”
Feng Yudie quickly shook her head, “Can we beat him?”
“We can’t.”
“Then how do we get in?”
“We need to bury those three demon cultivators and destroy the Red Refined Five Lotus Formation used for the blood sacrifice.”
“Isn’t that still fighting Li Feng?”
Ye Anping shook his head and calmly stated, “It’s just a face-to-face confrontation. Once the formation is broken, Li Feng will lose.”
Feng Yudie lowered her eyes, pondered for a moment, nodded absentmindedly, and asked, “Then how do we break the formation?”
Ye Anping wore a peculiar expression. He had clearly mentioned the “Red Refining Five Lotus Formation,” why was she not asking Xiao Tian but asking him? Did she consider him an upgraded version of Xiao Tian?
Giving her a blank look, Ye Anping responded, “Why do you always have to ask me? Can’t you think for yourself?”
Feng Yudie hesitated momentarily, shyly pursed her lips, and laughed foolishly, “Oh, leave the thinking to you. Whatever you ask me to do, I’ll do.”
“Then if I ask you never to think about my junior sister again, will you do it?”
“Ah ha ha…”
Feng Yudie chuckled, touching the back of her head. However, she quickly approached, put her arm around Ye Anping’s shoulders, and leaned in, grinning:
“Young Master Ye, since you brought up Junior Sister Pei, let’s discuss it.”
Ye Anping pushed her hand away, patting his shoulder in distaste, and raised an eyebrow inquiringly, “What to discuss?”
“How about we become Junior Sister Pei’s companion together?”
Ye Anping looked at Feng Yudie with a strange expression.
“…?”
Feng Yudie blinked, gesturing to explain, “Young Master Ye, I mean… I can be Junior Sister Pei’s main husband, and you can be her second husband. We can be with Junior Sister Pei together. Isn’t that great?”
“…”
Ye Anping was rendered speechless by Feng Yudie’s unconventional thinking. In nearly seventeen years, he had never felt so dumbfounded.
Seeing his expression, Feng Yudie shrunk her neck and asked again, “Then how about you be the main husband, and I’ll be the second husband? It’s easy to discuss…”
“…”
Ye Anping took a deep breath, pinched his nose, and regretted bringing up his junior sister’s matter to this girl. He immediately steered the conversation back:
“Where’s Senior Sister Xiao?”
“With Junior Sister Li.”
“Um…”
“By the way, there’s this…” Feng Yudie raised her sword finger, took the jade pendant Li Longling gave her from her storage bag, and handed it to Ye Anping. “Junior Sister Li gave this, saying we can use this jade talisman to mobilize the guards of Chilong Mansion.”
Ye Anping looked at the front and back of the jade talisman, slightly surprised. The jade was transparent and made from the highly flaming jade on Chilong Mountain. It had the relief of a Chilong, undoubtedly the one from the game.
He didn’t expect Li Longling to give this jade talisman to Feng Yudie. Li Longling should know that if Li Feng failed, she would be alone and without support. Li Feng taught Li Longling about the right path, but he himself betrayed it, which was quite ironic.
Ye Anping put the jade talisman into his storage bag.
“Yes, I understand. Let’s rest tonight. You can find a room to live in by yourself. There are many empty rooms in Jiang Mansion.”
“But Li Feng is already ready to take action. Shouldn’t we also…”
Ye Anping shook his head, interrupting, “The time has not come yet. We have to wait for Li Feng to take action first.”
“…I will listen to you.” Feng Yudie nodded, blinked, and shyly asked, “Where is Junior Sister Pei?”
“My junior sister…”
Boom—
The sound of thunder interrupted Ye Anping’s words. With the thunder, a lightning bolt streaked across the sky, and a flash of white light illuminated the courtyard.
Ye Anping suddenly saw an elongated figure reflected on the pillar beside him at that moment. He turned around to look behind him. A female assassin in a pure white gown stood at the end of the corridor. Her hair covered her face, and water droplets hung from the tips, falling to the ground with a chilling aura.
Feng Yudie was also startled by this figure, pulling out her spiritual sword, hiding behind Ye Anping, and grabbing his shoulders.
“What the hell is this?!”
“…”
Ye Anping didn’t reply, staring silently at the woman ahead. After a while, another lightning bolt crossed the sky.
Bah—
The white light from the lightning made Ye Anping blink involuntarily. However, in that split second, the figure ten feet away teleported to his front. Ye Anping couldn’t hold himself any longer, his face turned pale, and he took a breath.
“Hiss—”
However, he quickly regained composure, raised his hand, and removed the woman’s hair covering her face. After seeing the woman’s face, Ye Anping exhaled the breath he had held. This figure, a combination of Sadako and SCP-173, turned out to be his junior sister.
Ye Anping sighed, couldn’t help but grab Pei Lianxue’s face, and scolded, “You, how did you learn to scare people?”
“Scare people?”
“Yes, scare.”
Pei Lianxue puffed up her cheeks, removed his hands from her face, tilted her head, and looked at Feng Yudie behind Ye Anping, “Senior Sister Feng… Why are you here?”
“Um?”
Hearing Pei Lianxue’s voice, Feng Yudie raised her eyebrows, poked her head out from behind Ye Anping, and said with a smile, “So it’s Junior Sister Pei? You startled me. I thought there was a ghost. Junior Sister Pei, why are you dressed like this?”
