The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix C379

Chapter 379: Senior brother, before the fierce battle

Thousands of feet high in the sky, snow clouds gathered, and the flying snow fell on the golden city below, but it did not cover the city’s solemn glory.

Over Han Yue Immortal City, there was a crescent-shaped pumice stone suspended. On the top of the stone were jade tiles and jade towers. Countless palace people wearing immortal silk were busy running around in the compartments of each building.

This was the Si Tianjian of the Han Tian Kingdom, in charge of the astronomical calendar, and it was also the headquarters of the Royal Guards in the Northern Domain.

In the star-gazing Si Tiantai at the top, a man in white who looked like a mortal in his twenties and seventies stood in front of a suspended sand table with his hands up and down and performed military tactics with his fingers.

——The famous master Chen Yin, who was in the middle stage of becoming a god, was the president of the Han Tian Kingdom.

About a month ago, Li Longling, the head of the Chilong Mansion, sent an urgent letter, reminding the Han Tian Kingdom that the demonic cultivators might have penetrated deep into the Northern Domain.

Because of the efficiency issues of Han Tian Kingdom’s five departments and three hubs, this letter had been stagnant for at least several months. By the time Chen Yin saw the letter, the Royal guards from various immortal cities in the Northern Domain had already sent memorials of “witnessing demonic cultivators”.

The demon cultivators sneaked into the Northern Domain. As the president of the Royal Guards, Chen Yin naturally needed to arrange for the Royal Guards to go and eliminate them. But the problem was that he didn’t know how many people the demon cultivators had sent in, nor what kind of cultivation the demon cultivators had sent, nor where they were located.

If he knew that there was a demon cultivator in the core formation stage somewhere, he would send two Royal Guards to the core formation stage to eliminate it. But if he sent two snow-clothed guards at the core-formation stage and found that there was only one demon cultivator at the foundation-building stage in that place, it would be like killing a chicken with a sledgehammer.

There were only so many snow-clad guards in the Northern Domain. In this case, even if a little bit of combat power was wasted, it would give the demonic cultivator one more chance of winning. Moreover, he was not sure now what the purpose of so many cultivators from the Demon Sect sneaking into the Northern Domain was.

“…”

Chen Yin closed his eyes and let out a breath, trying to deduce the matter using the Star Act, but with his Daoism, he was still unable to see through the meaning of the stars like Immortal Danyue.

Ask Heaven, and Heaven will not answer. Asking people, there is not enough manpower to provide information.

While he was thinking hard, a sudden rush of footsteps interrupted his thoughts.

A palace maid in a snow-white gauze skirt, holding a parchment scroll, came up from the stairs of Si Tiantai, leaned down and bowed:

“National Master, Commander of the Royal Guard of Tianfeng Immortal City, Xu Mulan sent the jade slip.”

“Tianfeng Immortal City…”

Hearing this, Chen Yin swept his eyes across the sand table in front of him and landed on the location of Tianfeng Immortal City. Then he raised his sword with his hand, used his spiritual power to hold up the black flag next to him, and stood at the position of Tianfeng Immortal City on the sand table.

“Is there also a demon cultivator in Tianfeng Immortal City?”

“Yes, according to what is said in the jade slip, he is a demon cultivator in the Nascent Soul realm. Commander Xu hopes that Han Yue City can send Royal Guards in the Nascent Soul realm to eliminate him.”

Chen Yin frowned slightly and said directly:

“No.”

Nowadays, all the immortal cities in the northern region want Han Yue City to send people there, but where can Han Yue City have so much combat power to mobilize?

There were a total of forty-six Nascent Soul cultivators in the Royal Guards. Except for the seven who stayed in Han Yue City, he had already assigned the others to garrison in various important spiritual cities. Although Tianfeng Immortal City occupied a spiritual stone vein, its importance was far less than that of gateways and spiritual vein points like Linghe Immortal City.

After hearing this, the palace maid behind her felt helpless:

“National Master… How to reply to Commander Xu?”

“What is Xu Mulan’s current level of cultivation?”

“…the late stage of core formation.”

“Then let her stay in the city for at least four months. After four months, I will ask the Royal Guards from Liuxue City to rush in for reinforcements.”

“Yes…” The palace maid nodded but did not leave. Instead, she took a step forward and handed the parchment in her hand, “National Master, this map was also sent by Commander Xu.”

“Map?”

Chen Yin frowned slightly, turned around again, took the map with his spiritual power, and spread it out to float in front of him. He was a little confused. What was the purpose of sending a map?

But when he saw the dense markings outlined in the Northern Domain on the map, especially a few locations highlighted with red ink, Chen Yin’s originally cold face suddenly showed a look of astonishment. This map not only marked twelve of the eighteen formation eyes in the Northern Domain’s Protective Formation, but it also seemed to mark all the demon cultivators hiding in the Northern Domain.

Chen Yin couldn’t believe it, and quickly looked at the Northern Domain sand table in front of him, comparing the contents of the sand table with the map. The demon cultivators marked on the sand table were also marked on this map.

Moreover, the map also marked some locations where he did not receive the message…

But it was also because of this that it indeed increased the credibility of this map. Chen Yin frowned. This map was undoubtedly a timely help for him, but a question also arose: Where did Xu Mulan get the help?

“Where did she get this map?”

“Reporting to the master, according to what was said in the jade slip, was inferred based on the intelligence in the black market. She also said that the target of the demon cultivator is probably the eye of the Northern Domain’s Protective Formation…”

Black market’s intelligence to speculate?

He guessed the locations of so many demon cultivators and even guessed the Great Domain Protecting Formation Eyes of the Northern Domain.

Chen Yin didn’t believe it, but this map was evidence, which truly proved Xu Mulan’s outstanding ability in gathering intelligence.

He looked at the palace maid, twisted his eyebrows, and asked:

“Huh… Why is a person with such ability stationed in a small place like Tianfeng Immortal City? Xu Mulan… What is her origin?”

“Reporting to the master, Commander Xu is not from a noble family. There is a sister in the family who is in the Qi refining period, named Xu Xiyue. The two sisters grew up in Tianfeng Immortal City. At that time, her Royal Guard’s ranking in the spear test and written test was only B…”

Chen Yin became even more confused after hearing this, but he didn’t care too much and said:

“The reply remains unchanged, let her stick to Tianfeng Immortal City and never take the initiative to fight with the Nascent Soul Demonic Cultivator.”

“Yes…”

After giving the order, Chen Yin picked up the map, summoned the flying sword from the storage bag, stepped on it, and then headed toward the immortal palace suspended above the moon.

There was music in the immortal palace, and in front of the jade-tiled main hall, a woman wearing a double dragon crown was sitting on a wicker chair, with a lazy look on her face and yawning.

In front of her, dozens of dancers were waving their sleeves vigorously, but they seemed to be unable to arouse the slightest interest in her. Empress Sun Juehu slowly moved her eyes from the dancing girl to the bright full moon in the sky. For some reason, she suddenly thought of that old woman Si Xuanji again, and her teeth itched with anger.

But she suddenly recalled that when the Taibai Sect had a meeting, Si Xuanji yelled “Idiot!” in the middle of the meeting and then left suddenly. She didn’t know why Si Xuanji left the scene, but for the first time, she saw some embarrassment and worry on the old woman’s face…

Why the embarrassment?

Then who is the old woman worried about?

Who in the world would let her show such an expression? Will it make her lose her temper?

Who is it?

Thousands of years ago, Si Xuanji spat on the moon and killed her master. She had been thinking about it, looking for a way to make Si Xuanji pay with blood, but how easy was it to kill Si Xuanji?

However, when she saw Si Xuanji lose her composure in the Taibai Sect, she had a vague feeling that the person who made Si Xuanji lose her composure might be the way to make her pay for her debt with blood. The more Sun Juehu thought about it, the more curious she became, but she became more and more at a loss.

At that moment, a golden flying sword entered the Immortal Palace from the side. The national master Chen Yin walked respectfully from the palace gate, came to Sun Juehu, knelt on his knees, cupped his hands, and said:

“Chen Yin pays homage to His Majesty.”

Sun Juehu raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, nodded faintly, waved her sleeves to disperse the dancing girls in front of her, and said:

“What’s important for the Imperial Master?”

“Just now, I received a map from the commander of the Royal Guards of Tianfeng Immortal City. According to what she said, she guessed the current location of the demonic cultivators in the Northern Domain based on the black market intelligence.”

Sun Juehu frowned slightly, raised her finger slightly, and the map in Chen Yin’s hand rose into the air and fell into her hand. She unfolded the map and looked at it, then narrowed her eyes and asked:

“Oh? Did you fill in the positions of these Han Tian Formation Eyes later?”

“It was not the fault of my subordinates.” Chen Yin cupped his hands and said, “This is what the royal guard guessed, and this is the goal of the demon cultivator’s invasion of the Northern Domain.”

“So, the demon cultivators invaded the Northern Domain this time to break the Northern Domain’s protective formation? Do they want to invade the Northern Domain?”

“According to the meaning of that royal guard, that’s it.”

Sun Juehu frowned, glanced at the map again, and asked:

“So, why are you here?”

“I just want to inform Your Majesty about this matter, and it can be regarded as a contribution to that person. If this map is not wrong, the royal guard can be regarded as having made a great contribution. After the matter is settled, I want to send her to Han Yue City.”

“…allow.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty…”

Rumble——!

The moment Chen Yin finished speaking, suddenly a bottom-up icy blue light pillar appeared on the northern skyline, breaking through the dark clouds in the dome below and shooting straight out into the sky.

The eyes of Sun Juehu and Chen Yin were instantly attracted. Both of them understood instantly: one of the main formation eyes of the Han Tian Formation was broken.

Chen Yin pinched his fingers slightly and said, “This is the Hantian Formation Eye of Linghe Immortal City.”

Sun Juehu’s face remained calm, she removed the two maids beside her, stood up from the wicker chair, and said:

“Those demon cultivators from the Eastern Domain… Actually, come for real this time? Do you think I am as easy to bully as Nangong Cheng?”

“Your Majesty, just leave this matter to your subordinates. There is no need for you to take action yourself.”

“Snort!”

At the same time, thousands of miles away in Baiyue Town, living on the second floor. Ye Anping was dressed in white, carrying the Snow Spirit Sword on his back, standing in front of the window sill, looking at the beam of light reaching the sky from the southwest, and curled his lips slightly:

“One of the formation eyes has been broken…”

Feng Yudie, who was eating roast chicken at the table next to her, heard his words tilted her head, and asked:

“Eye of the formation oooh…?”

When Ye Anping heard this, he turned around with a dark look on his face. Seeing Feng Yudie’s “Glib tongue” appearance, he felt depressed for a while.

In the past few days, junior sister and Xiao Yunluo seemed to have been preparing to deal with Jiang Mojiao, searching for elixirs and talismans everywhere in Tianfeng Immortal City.

Xu Mulan also returned to Tianfeng Immortal City and summoned all the royal guards she could mobilize.

Only Feng Yudie…

Apart from sneaking over to her place to eat roast chicken every day, this guy had nothing else to do. But Ye Anping also gave up talking about her, and simply took out the ten roast chickens he prepared yesterday from his storage bag and threw them on the table:

“Here, roast chicken.”

“Oh~~~.”

Seeing so many Master Ye’s special roasted chickens on the table, Feng Yudie’s eyes instantly shone, but as soon as she thought about it, she twisted her eyebrows and asked with suspicion:

“Why did you suddenly give me so much?”

Because there is a high probability that you will encounter Gu Mingxin in the future, there is a high probability that you will have more troubles in the future, and there is a high probability that you will not be able to eat roast chicken well in the next few months…

Ye Anping smiled slightly and said:

“No? If you don’t want it, I’ll accept it…”

“I want it!!” Feng Yudie hurriedly lay on the dozen roast chickens wrapped in oil paper on the table and said protectively, “What else do you want me to do?”

“Nothing.” Ye Anping shrugged slightly and said, “There must be supplies before a fierce battle. This is your supply.”

“Huh? Isn’t he just a demonic cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage?” Feng Yudie looked confused and asked, “Maybe I can handle it by myself!”

Ye Anping shook his head slightly, thought for a while, and said:

“…I asked you a question last time.”

“Um?”

“If you meet Gu Mingxin alone, what are your chances of winning?”

“Are we going to run into her?”

Feng Yudie was frightened and straightened her head.

Ye Anping was speechless. Didn’t this guy tell him last time that she had a 100% chance of winning?

He sighed and said:

“I just have a premonition. This time to eliminate the demon cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, there is a high chance that they will encounter Gu Mingxin.”

Feng Yudie curled her lips and frowned:

“If you say there is a high probability of encountering it, then it means that you will encounter it.”

But after glancing at Ye Anping, she wiped away the troubled expression on her face.

“But… It’s okay. I didn’t beat the shit out of her last time, but it will be the same this time! And I will chop her up this time.”

Ye Anping walked forward, picked up the roast chicken on the table, stuffed it into her mouth, and said:

“I won’t be on the sidelines this time. Long Ling and I will deal with the other demon cultivators, so don’t underestimate the enemy.”

Hearing that Ye Anping was not here this time, Feng Yudie immediately lowered her head and twisted her eyebrows:

“…you won’t help me?”

“I want to help but don’t count on me too much. We won’t be able to get through it in a short time.”

“…Oh.”

At this time, Xiao Yunluo’s voice came from outside the window:

“You idiot! You idiot! Stop eating your rotten roast chicken and come down quickly. Commander Xu has sent someone over to pick us up.”

Feng Yudie paused and shouted out the window:

“…Oh!! It’s coming~~”

Then she looked at the roast chicken on the table, held ten roast chickens in her arms, jumped out of the window, and turned to look at Ye Anping as if she was longing for it, but also said nothing.

Ye Anping sighed and comforted, “Don’t worry.”

“Um!”

After hearing this, Feng Yudie nodded and then fell from the window.

The next moment, Xiao Yunluo’s voice reached Ye Anping’s ears again:

“Why did you buy so much? By the way, why do you come here to eat roast chicken every time these days? Is the roast chicken in Tourist Pavilion different?”

“The roast chicken here is delicious, and it’s right across the street…”

“Oh… forget it, let’s go! We will meet Commander Xu in Tianfeng Immortal City later, and then we will go straight to the cave of the demonic cultivator.”

After hearing the two voices disappearing, Ye Anping walked to the window and took a look at the Tourist Pavilion across the street.

At this time, there was another creak of the door opening behind him.

Li Longling also changed into a velvet dress at this moment and also put on wrist guards. The fire phoenix stood on her shoulders, looking at Ye Anping with its bright phoenix eyes.

“Anping, Commander Xu has sent someone to pick us up and meet us in Tianfeng Immortal City.”

Ye Anping was silent for a while, turned around, and saw a strange snow-clad guard next to Li Longling.

“I’ve met Senior Ye.”

“Without courtesy, please go back and talk to Commander Xu. Palace Master Li and I will go over to investigate the situation first. Then we will meet in front of the Demon Cultivator’s cave.”

“…Yes.”

Ye Anping let out a long breath, took off the Snow Spirit Sword behind him, wrapped it with a bandage again, and then took Li Longling from the back door of the Inn and flew towards the north with the flying sword.

    “The famous master Chen Yin, who was in the middle stage of becoming a god, was the president of the Han Tian Kingdom.”

    Just realized it went from president to national master to imperial master. Also, “becoming a god”? Really?
