The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix C230

Chapter 230: The protagonist has a secret

At the same time, on the other side, in the snow-covered cedar forest, smoke and dust billowed, choking the air. The mountain fires spread continuously, disturbing hibernating monsters and animals, causing them to flee in all directions. By the side of a frozen stream, Feng Yudie, her clothes tattered, leaned on Ye Anping’s shoulder as they sat down by a snow-covered cedar.

During the explosion, although both had mentally prepared themselves and released their spiritual power to protect their bodies in advance, they were still dangerously close to the alchemy furnace. It was almost as if they had directly confronted a fire spell from a late-stage core-formation cultivator.

Ye Anping had shielded Feng Yudie with his body during the explosion. Now, while Feng Yudie’s injuries were minor, with only her silver hair slightly curled by the spiritual fire and some scratches on her face and body, Ye Anping was severely injured. His clothes were burnt in several places, and his back suffered extensive burns. His arms and legs were cut by flying rocks, and his dishevelled appearance spoke of his ordeal.

Ye Anping frowned and took a deep breath, pushing his hair away from his face as he settled down to gather his thoughts and reflect on the situation. He had considered many possibilities and made numerous contingency plans, but he had yet to anticipate Yun Jiujiu’s reckless actions.

While he had thought about scenarios like breaking her meridians or confronting Zhuang Yan, he hadn’t expected Yun Jiujiu to destroy the obsidian platform with a single kick. Originally, he had planned for them to be at least ten yards away from the furnace during the explosion, but Yun Jiujiu’s actions forced him to change his plans and detonate the furnace prematurely.

Originally, he had planned for them to be at least ten yards away from the furnace during the explosion, but Yun Jiujiu’s actions forced him to change his plans and detonate the furnace prematurely.

Otherwise, Zhuang Yan would have been guarding the alchemy furnace, and Feng Yudie would have never had the chance to approach the alchemy furnace and open a hole.

As the saying goes, it is easy to predict the behaviour of fools and wise men, but it is impossible to predict the behaviour of a madman.

Fortunately, he left enough redundant space in his plan this time. He had calculated that even if he and Feng Yudie were close to the furnace when the furnace was exploding, they would not be seriously injured. Otherwise, it would be over.

Ye Anping decided that when he met someone like Yun Jiujiu in the future, it would be better for him to be more cautious.

“Sigh–“

Seeing that Ye Anping’s breath had calmed down, Feng Yudie dared to ask,

“Young Master Ye, how are you?”

“Well… it’s a little worse than I expected…”

Hearing this, Feng Yudie unconsciously twisted her eyebrows and interrupted,

“I’m asking how you are, not your current situation.”

“I’m fine.”

“It’s okay.” Feng Yudie breathed a sigh of relief, remembering that Ye Anping had blocked her just now. She simply scolded, “Why do you think you don’t care about your own body? It’s been like this, and you are still thinking about the current situation. Please take care of yourself.”

“It’s just a minor injury, nothing to worry about.”

“A small injury!” Feng Yudie rolled her eyes at him, suddenly smiled, and said, “Remember that, ten thousand spiritual stones.”

Ye Anping was a little speechless, and the corners of his eyes suddenly twitched. He was kind enough to protect this guy from being bombed, but this guy actually had the nerve to ask for money from him.

“Are you still embarrassed to accept my spirit stone?”

“Why are you embarrassed? This is the same thing.” Feng Yudie stood up, akimbo and chest raised, “You hug me, you give me 10,000 spirit stones. You help me block it. I’ll give you 10,000 spiritual stones, calculated separately, humph~.

Ye Anping narrowed his eyes, realizing that this person seemed to view him as an ATM, expecting him to shell out tens of thousands of spiritual stones every day just for a hug.

“Hehe…”

“Heheh– anyway, it’s ten thousand spirit stones for a hug.” Feng Yudie blinked and raised her index finger. “As long as you pay up, you can come find me anytime.”

Ye Anping pinched his nose, deciding not to engage with her on this matter. The main priority now was to locate Yun Yiyi and the others. Yun Jiujiu had forcibly broken through her cultivation realm, and if left untreated, she would almost certainly die.

In the game’s storyline, if Yun Yiyi’s route were followed, Yun Jiujiu would often resort to such drastic actions. Though she would return to Jianjiu Peak alive, she would remain bedridden, relying on elixirs to prolong her life for about ten days before eventually passing away. This incident was unavoidable.

Feng Yudie glanced around, noticing the encroaching mountain fire. She quickly prepared to help Ye Anping up and continue their journey. But Ye Anping raised his hand to stop her, leaning against a tree trunk as he got up. “Let’s go find Yun Jiujiu and the others.”

Feng Yudie stepped forward and dragged his arm over her shoulder. “Okay, where to?”

Ye Anping was silent for a moment, then glanced at her. He had considered asking Xiao Tian to come out, but after some thought, he spoke cryptically, “You figure it out.”

“Huh!”

“What? It’s just finding two people.”

“Oh…”

Feng Yudie pondered for a moment, naturally thinking of asking Xiao Tian to help in the search.

The Earth’s veins and spiritual energy there were mixed, making it impossible to release one’s spiritual consciousness. Only Xiao Tian could quickly detect the surrounding situation. However, with Ye Anping nearby, she wasn’t comfortable calling Xiao Tian directly.

After all, Xiao Tian was her secret. Ye Anping didn’t disclose the source of his information so she couldn’t reveal Xiao Tian’s existence to him.

“Master Ye, why don’t we exchange secrets?” Feng Yudie suggested. “How do you know so many things? You tell me about that, and I’ll share a secret with you that I’ve never told anyone before.”

Ye Anping felt a bit weary and pondered for a moment. Just as he was about to come up with a plausible excuse, they heard hammering sounds not far away in the forest.

Ding ding—

Moments later, a loud, irritable voice cut through the woods,

“You bunch of lackeys, are you still chasing me? Screw you all! Come on–!”

Boom—

A burst of snow dust erupted in the forest, uprooting rows of cedar trees.

Ye Anping and Feng Yudie stood shoulder to shoulder, watching the commotion not far away. They exchanged glances for a moment, then sighed simultaneously.

“No need to search anymore, let’s go over there,” Ye Anping said.

“Alright…” Feng Yudie agreed.
