The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix C45

Chapter 45: Open-minded Senior Sister Bai

Ye Anping couldn’t figure it out. He couldn’t comprehend why he did Bai Yuexin’s “task” just to obtain her “20% discount coupon.”

In theory, if Bai Yuexin emerged from her self-isolation, the task should have been completed. However, why didn’t the “coupon” arrive, and why did he end up blaming himself for it?

Were the rewards for in-game tasks set by the game planner different from those in the real world?

Ye Anping felt somewhat helpless. Without the “20% discount coupon,” his future purchases of rare materials and treasures would be reduced by one-fifth. He crouched by the window, peering through a crack in the paper window at Bai Yuexin diligently cleaning the yard. He sighed and returned to bed, practising meditation to transform the accumulated yang energy into spiritual energy, releasing it from his body.

In the game, the combination of Siyang Sect’s Heart Technique with Jiuyuan Heart Technique and Wenjian Jue was considered an optimal solution by experienced players. It was relatively easy to obtain and had a fast cultivation speed, providing players with significant early-stage combat power. Yet, modifying other techniques in the mid to late game was also straightforward, without the need for decades of cultivation setbacks. However, it seemed that Ye Anping had made the wrong choice as practicing this combination had unintended side effects not present in the game.

He understood why the game didn’t include such side effects – “Tales of Heavenly Sword” was an all-ages healthy game. The current side effects were manageable for him, considering his low cultivation level, but he couldn’t help but think he made a mistake.

He considered the possibility of finding a Daoist companion now but realised that Miss Xi Yue was in a mid-to-late game map, making it dangerous to go there at this point. The idea of using something with Yin energy to suppress the side effects crossed his mind, but the associated difficulties made it impractical.

Ultimately, his junior sister seemed to be the only solution. With her extremely yin body, hugging her every day could neutralise the excess yang energy. However, he wondered if she would agree to it and decided to postpone the decision until after he built the foundation.

Setting aside these concerns, Ye Anping shifted his focus back to the Seven Killing Sect. He needed to find an opportunity to meet with Feng Yudie and discuss matters with her.

“Um…”

After thinking for a while, Ye Anping also got off the bed, got dressed, opened the door, and walked out, preparing to ask Bai Yuexin to help him send a message to Feng Yudie, asking her to come. Bai Yuexin was sweeping the floor at the moment, and when she saw Ye Anping coming out, she quickly came up.

“Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Do you want me to take you to the hospital for the doctor to take a look at?”

“Not really… I took a moment to adjust my breath, and I feel much better now.”

“Okay…” Bai Yuexin nodded, guiding him into the main hall and saying, “By the way, I made some porridge for you. Give it a try…”

Ye Anping was led to the table, observing the colourful and bubbling porridge resembling lava. He raised an eyebrow and glanced at Bai Yuexin.

“Senior Bai…”

“Yes?”

“Do you think this porridge looks edible?”

“Ah…” Bai Yuexin awkwardly pursed her lips, smiling, “It’s my first time making porridge, and I thought you needed some nourishment, so I added a lot of medicinal herbs. It turned out to be this colour, but I tasted it, and it’s not bad.”

“…”

Ye Anping was somewhat speechless but decided to taste the porridge after Bai Yuexin’s explanation.

“How is it?” Bai Yuexin sat beside him, looking at him expectantly.

“Hmm… I can barely drink it.”

“Hehe…” Bai Yuexin laughed foolishly, unconsciously reaching out to touch the back of Ye Anping’s head. “That’s good. If it’s not enough, there’s more in the pot.”

Seeing this, Ye Anping hesitated for a moment and then spoke frankly, “Senior Bai, although it may sound impolite, I’ll be direct. I already have someone I’m interested in… So, if you’re thinking of making me your Daoist companion, please reconsider.”

Bai Yuexin smiled awkwardly and attempted to tap Ye Anping’s head playfully, but he skillfully avoided it.

She paused and said, “What’s going on in that little brain of yours? So self-centred.”

“Um?”

“I just thought you resembled my younger brother, and that’s why I wanted to take care of you. Besides, you’re so young. Sister Bai and I have lived for almost forty-five years. Why would I be interested in a little guy like you?”

“Is it just that?”

“Maybe not just that…” Bai Yuexin muttered but then continued, “Anyway, I’m willing to take care of you. You just need to endure it, and I don’t expect anything from you. Worried I might extort something from you?”

“Yeah, I’m scared.”

“…”

After taking a sip of the porridge, Ye Anping asked, “Earlier, I overheard you and the senior talking about the Seven Killing Sect. Has anything happened in Xuanxing Sect these days?”

“Don’t mention this to anyone. I told you because I trust you,” Bai Yuexin said, leaning in and whispering to Ye Anping, “It seems that people from the Seven Killing Sect attacked some disciples yesterday. Elder Lei got furious and called all the sect elders to decide on wiping out the Seven Killing Sect.”

After receiving Bai Yuexin’s confirmation, Ye Anping completely let go of his concerns. He shrugged and replied, “Well, it has nothing to do with me.”

“Well, it’s not irrelevant. You should be more careful recently. What if there are still people from the Seven Killing Sect hiding in the city? Those people are all people who accept money but not their fate. Bad guys, all of them! They specialise in catching children!”

“Senior Bai, you don’t have to talk to me in this tone when speaking to an adult.”

“Okay, okay, obviously, you are not very old, but this old-fashioned look is not cute at all. Shouldn’t children of your age pounce on a big sister like me and act like a spoiled child in the future?”

Ye Anping took another sip of porridge speechlessly, paused, and asked tentatively, “Senior Bai, can you do me a favour?”

“Huh? Tell me! What are you busy with?”

“Can you give a message to a Xuanxing Sect disciple?”

“What words?”

“I want to invite her to dinner. I hope she can come and see me when she is free in the next few days.”

“Um…”

Bai Yuexin held her chin and thought for a while, then suddenly remembered that Ye Anping seemed to have said that he had someone he liked…

Could it be that the person he liked was a disciple of a certain Xuanxing Sect?

For a moment, she felt a little uncomfortable, but after all, she agreed, and Ye Anping said that it was a treat, which meant that the two of them had not developed yet…

Bai Yuexin nodded and asked curiously, “Who is it?”

“Feng Yudie.”

Upon hearing this name, the smile on Bai Yuexin’s face froze instantly.

“Do you know her?”

“Yeah. I don’t know her. I just want to get acquainted and expand the business of my physical therapy centre.”

“Business?”

Ye Anping nodded, “Yeah, I just want to ask her to help promote my physical therapy centre. Something like ‘The sword test with foundation-building period disciples and Qi-refining period disciples is tried and approved by everyone!!'”

Bai Yuexin twisted her eyebrows and scolded, “You little villain! Are you trying to make your sister angry? Do you believe I won’t spank you?”

“It’s okay. I’ll help sister teach her a lesson when the time comes.”

“Okay, I’ll go tell her for you. Don’t use this as publicity! Otherwise, I’ll not spare you!”

“It’s just a joke. Senior Bai is really narrow-minded.”

Bai Yuexin looked at him, full of resentment, but then she exhaled, “If you lose, you lose. I thought about it a long time ago. I don’t want to compete with her, huh~”
