The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix C19

Chapter 19: Protagonist, brought by the crane

Ye Anping was dumbfounded after arriving at the house where Feng Yudie was living.

Feng Yudie was now dressed in a silk dress. Naturally good-looking, the silk dress paired with her silver hair tied into a bun made her look like a fairy. But he was dumbfounded, not because she was beautiful, but because he looked at the black pattern-sleeved shirt Xiaodie had asked him to put on earlier. Whether it was the embroidery pattern or the color, the outfit was practically a “couple outfit” with Feng Yudie. There was also a gold and jade tassel that Xiaodie somehow got for him to hang on his belt, and Feng Yudie now had one on her waist.

“…”

Ye Anping fell silent, somewhat speechless, as he looked towards Kong Yulan, who was now in the room. He wanted to say something but didn’t know how to start.

Seeing him glance over, Kong Yulan blinked at him, a joyful expression on her face as if inviting praise – “My dear, I know you like this girl, so I specially brought you and her matching clothes yesterday.”

“Mom, thank you so much,” He said.

At this moment, Feng Yudie also noticed his clothes and looked blankly at the clothes Kong Yulan had forced her to wear. Black lines hung from her forehead.

She quickly glanced at Ye Anping, using her eyes to ask, What’s going on?

Ye Anping shook his head slightly, sighed, and replied with his expression and eyes that it was none of his business.

At this point, Xiao Tian also reveled in amusement, floating in the air and covering his mouth, snickering, “Yudie, you and that Ye boy are so well-matched now.”

After a while of pleasantries, Elder Wang inquired about Feng Yudie’s knowledge of Master Tai Xu, checked the authenticity of the letter on her body, and discussed the matter of the demonic cultivator in Wuxi Town.

When Feng Yudie spoke about it, Kong Yulan quietly walked to Ye Anping’s side, seeking credit, “Anping, how is it? Miss Feng looks beautiful today, right? Your mother specially chose this outfit for you and Miss Feng.”

“Mom…”

Ye Anping wanted to say it was unnecessary, but he felt that if he said this, his mother would cry pitifully on the spot.

Kong Yulan was a bit of a control freak, and being her only son, she doted on him a little too much, giving off an overpowering mother-in-law vibe.

Ye Anping still remembered that when he was three years old, he accidentally tripped over an old stone brick and injured his knee. His mother found out, immediately brought him to the stone brick, scolded the brick, and then used magic to blast the stone brick into crumbs. She even renovated all the floor tiles in that area. It was already a pathological level of pampering.

Ye Anping thought for a while and simply nodded to avoid causing more trouble and said, “Thank you, mother. I like it very much.”

“As long as you like it, you can take others to the sect’s flower sea for a walk. I just asked Feng Yatou, and she also has a special liking for you. I also asked before that the Xuanxing Sect allows disciples to bring a companion into the school. When the time comes, let Feng take you there. It will be good for you two Daoist lovers to live together.”

“Ah…”

How about you pay a brief visit in the past few days and then return in a few years? My mother will host a big wedding banquet for you.”

“I…”

Fortunately, Ye Ao and Elder Wang also talked about the demon cultivator and called him.

“Anping, come and talk about that demon cultivator.”

“Ah, Mom, I have my plan for this matter, so don’t bother me too much.”

“You dislike your mother, don’t you?”

“No, no, I don’t mind.”

Ye Anping quickly stepped away, walked up to Elder Wang, and retrieved the missing magical artifacts and identity jade tokens from the storage bag.

“Elder Wang, these are the things from the demonic cultivator.”

Elder Wang glanced over, squinted slightly, and asked, “Young Master Ye, your father mentioned that when you and your junior sister encountered the demonic cultivator, he was severely injured. However, even if injured, a Core Formation cultivator is not something a Qi Refining cultivator can easily kill. Can you tell me the specific circumstances of how you and your junior sister managed to kill him?”

“My junior sister and I were practicing formations in the woods, and the demonic cultivator happened to come by. It seemed like he wanted to use our blood to heal himself, so I used a formation to trap him.”

“What kind of formation can trap a Core Formation cultivator?”

“It’s a formation from the Hantian Kingdom. I don’t know its name. I obtained it by chance.”

On the side, Ye Ao had a puzzled expression—those cultivation techniques were understandable, and he could buy them in the market with more spirit stones. But this formation sounded like it was from the Hantian Kingdom. Where did this kid learn it?

Elder Wang nodded, “Demonic cultivators are indeed afraid of the cold energy from Hantian. In that case, I can understand how you and your junior sister killed him. Besides these things, does he have anything else in his possession?”

“There’s also a fragment of the ‘Xuan Yin Jue,’ but I can’t mention it.”

Ye Anping deliberately recalled and said, “There were also two cauldrons holding Gu insects. I burned them using fire talismans, so they should be gone. His body is in the woods next to Wuxi Town, sealed with earth magic. It should be easy to find. The formation shattered all the trees in that area.”

Elder Wang seemed convinced. He patted Ye Anping on the shoulder and said, “Killing a demonic cultivator, you can claim your reward at Xuanxing Sect. Moreover, he was a Grand Master of the Gu Poison Sect. If you have time later, take this identity jade token to Xuanxing Sect. You should be able to receive many good things.”

“Thank you, Elder Wang.”

“Alright.” Elder Wang nodded and then turned to Feng Yudie, “I will inform the Sect Master about your situation when I return. Please come on time for the selection in two months. Although you have a recommendation letter from Master Taixu, being late will still result in losing the qualification to join the sect. You will have to wait another five years.”

“Understood.”

“I won’t stay any longer. The appearance of Gu Poison Sect members in the Immortal Family’s territory is no small matter. I must report to the Sect Master and other elders at Xuanxing Sect immediately.”

He bowed to Ye Ao and Kong Yulan, then left in a hurry, looking genuinely anxious.

Ye Ao quickly chased after him, intending to see him off.

After he left, Ye Anping was initially ready to return to his room. However, he suddenly noticed Kong Yulan constantly using eye signals to indicate—Anping! Quickly! Invite Feng Yatou for a walk!

He opened his mouth, sighed one last time, looked at Feng Yudie, and stretched out his hand,

“Miss Feng, are you free now?”

Feng Yudie was momentarily stunned, then noticed Kong Yulan looking at her with shining eyes and sighed like Ye Anping. She gently took his hand.

“I’m very happy too.”

So, the two of them walked down from the Heavenly Pavilion hand in hand until they felt Kong Yulan’s gaze disappear behind them, and only then did they let go of each other’s hands.

Feng Yudie made a face and remarked, “Young Master Ye, Mrs. Kong insisted on dressing me in this attire. Considering I’m currently a guest, it’s challenging to decline.”

“I can probably guess,” Ye Anping replied with a helpless look, “Is my mother boasting about me in front of you and asking for your opinion?”

Feng Yudie nodded and sighed in response.

“Hey,” Ye Anping sighed as well, “Don’t worry, I don’t have any romantic feelings for you, and I also know it’s impossible for you to feel the same.”

“…”

“Anyway, let’s go sit in the flower sea. If you head back directly, my mother will likely come and ask me again when she sees it.”

Seeing Ye Anping’s resigned expression, Feng Yudie couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Puff–“

“What’s so funny?”

“I initially thought your parents would be very traditional and stern people. You also gave me the impression of a stoic young master from a prestigious family. But unexpectedly, your mother is so adorable.”

Ye Anping, hearing Feng Yudie complimenting his mother’s cuteness, paused for a moment and suddenly felt that something was off. He immediately brought his face close to hers, staring at her wide-eyed.

“Feng Yudie…”

“Ah?”

“Are you trying to pursue my junior sister and my mother?”

“Feng Yudie, what do you mean by ‘yes’?” Feng Yudie quickly pulled her neck back.

Hearing this question, Ye Anping paused for a moment and then stopped being angry.

“Oh, that’s right, you don’t even know how you were born.”

“Ah?” Feng Yudie asked, a series of question marks floating above her head, “Why wouldn’t I know how I was born? What do you mean I don’t know? A divine crane created me and then sent as a gift to my parents.”

“Yes,” Ye Anping smiled, “You’re right. You are a gift from the crane to your parents.”

Xiao Tian, floating above Feng Yudie’s head, sighed immediately, watching Feng Yudie with a shake of his head and a tongue click.

Tsk, tsk, tsk… hey——”

“What’s wrong?” Feng Yudie was even more puzzled seeing Xiao Tian’s reaction and quickly asked Ye Anping, “What? Didn’t a crane bring you? Did you grow out of the soil or something?”

Ye Anping was speechless. “A crane didn’t bring me. I turned into a ginseng fruit that fell from a tree.”

“Ginseng fruit?” Feng Yudie was bewildered, “What kind of fruit grows on a ginseng tree?”

“A ginseng tree.”

“Oh… What about Miss Pei? Is she also transformed from a ginseng fruit?”

“Yes, you said it, yes!”
