The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix C71

Chapter 71: The heroine wants to become stronger

After enjoying the thoughtful treatment at the Xuanxing Sect Medical Center for a few days, Ye Anping also returned to the physical therapy center in the city. He had expected Si Xuanji to come to find him during his stay at the medical centre, but the enigmatic old lady seemed to enjoy keeping him in suspense. Instead of appearing herself, she sent a parrot as a messenger, and he never saw her in person.

Thinking ahead, Ye Anping planned to take Pei Lianxue to the upcoming annual winter sale at Tianqiong Chungui Pavilion. So, during this time, he focused on accumulating more funds for the trip.

Setting aside thoughts about Si Xuanji for the moment, he diligently reopened his store and resumed business. The news of the breakthrough by a Xuanxing Sect disciple named Xu, brought by Bai Yuexin earlier, had spread. On his first day back, the physical therapy centre saw an influx of cultivators, and Ye Anping found himself engaged in polite conversations with each one.

“Young Master Ye, I haven’t had your therapy for a few days, and my Qi condensation feels off.”

“Senior is joking. My therapy is not that miraculous.”

“But it’s quite effective, much better than the Spirit Gathering Pill,” another senior sister chimed in. “By the way, are you alright? I heard you were wrapped up like a bandage ball by Doctor Zhou. Are your injuries healed? If not, I have some healing elixirs here.”

“No need, no need…”

This group of people seemed familiar and made it a point to exchange pleasantries with him. They also brought small gifts like homemade pastries and some lower-grade elixirs. Although not expensive, Ye Anping accepted them as gestures of goodwill.

However, the number of visitors was particularly high that day. He didn’t get a chance to rest until noon. Around lunchtime, Ye Anping finally took a moment to relax. He sighed and laid down on a lounge chair in the lobby, intending to take a short nap.

However, as soon as he closed his eyes, he heard a commotion from the back room. There was a heated exchange between a person and a bird.

“Silly girl!! Silly girl!!”

“Who are you talking about? You idiot!! If you have the guts, don’t stand on the beam!!”

“Hit me!! Hit me!!”

Ye Anping pinched his nose and sighed. He stood up, walked into the back room, and opened the door. As soon as the door opened, a feather duster flew towards him like an arrow. Thankfully, he reacted quickly, avoiding the projectile.

“Ah~ Anping.” Bai Yuexin quickly became obedient, apologised, and explained, “Sorry! This bird kept scratching me, and it was driving me crazy.”

“Silly girl!! Silly girl!!” The tiger-striped parrot, perched on a beam, continued its scolding.

Ignoring the commotion, the bird flew down and landed on Ye Anping’s shoulder, affectionately rubbing its crest against his face.

“Nai glanced at it and scolded, ‘You too, don’t mess with Senior Bai.'”

Ye Anping felt helpless, gave it a quick look, and rebuked, “You as well, don’t provoke Senior Bai.”

“Congratulations on getting rich!! Congratulations on getting rich!!”

“…”

After that, he looked at Bai Yuexin and said, “Sister, you too, why are you so fussy with a parrot?”

“That’s not…”

Bai Yuexin felt aggrieved after hearing this.

On that day, Bai Yuexin caught the parrot and brought it over. After exchanging a few words, when she went back to her morning class, Mr Qi suddenly called her name during class and assigned her to clean the birdhouse for five days.

Ye Anping didn’t need to think about it to know that her words probably caused this at that time, “I don’t know if she was raised by an unqualified disciple in the sect, so why did she teach someone to curse?”

However, Bai Yuexin didn’t know that Si Xuanji was raising her at this time.

When she came back, she blamed the parrot for sweeping the birdhouse. The two of them didn’t deal with each other in those days, and they would scold each other when they met.

Ye Anping shrugged helplessly, then walked to the table, saw that it was covered with stones of various sizes, and asked, “How is the profit today?”

“That’s good.” Bai Yuexin quickly came to her senses, took out her account book, made some calculations, and said, “There were thirty guests this morning, and a total of nearly two thousand stones were recorded in the account.”

“What about taking away the rent, drug costs, and taxes?”

Pat pat pat——

Bai Yuexin made up her mind and said, “That’s more than five hundred.”

“Um…”

The income of more than 500 stones in one day was actually quite considerable for an ordinary shop, and this was the income in a single morning. However, after just one morning, Ye Anping fell from exhaustion.

Physiotherapy involves using spiritual energy to insert needles and threads into the meridians. He would not go that deep with ordinary customers, but he still needed to explore the other person’s meridians and control his aura. These two things were extremely energy-consuming.

If an ordinary practitioner were to do this, he would probably lose his energy within half an hour. Bai Yuexin also saw the fatigue on Ye Anping’s face at this time and asked,

“Anping, are you tired?”

“To be honest, a little bit.” Ye Anping exhaled heavily and said, “Let’s do this. Help me put up a sign at the door later saying that I can only receive thirty guests a day. I can’t bear it any more.”

“I told you to teach me. I can help you share the burden.”

Ye Anping thought for a moment and said, “Sister, go buy some live chickens later. Give it a try, and if they don’t survive, we can have roasted chicken tonight.”

“Alright!!” Bai Yuexin nodded in agreement.

Ye Anping then placed the budgerigar standing on his shoulder back on the nearby bird stand and turned around, preparing to take a nap.

Just as he walked out of the back room, he suddenly noticed a suspicious person in the lobby of the physiotherapy centre. The person’s facial features were highly asymmetrical. One eye was larger than the other, the nose was crooked by thirty degrees, and there were fiery red lips.

A Picasso-like beauty. After observing for a moment, Ye Anping quickly realised that it was likely a face-changing tool. He released his consciousness, scanning the person cautiously.

The next moment, Ye Anping’s previously furrowed eyebrows relaxed, and he asked, “Senior Sister Xiao!”

“Ah!” Xiao Yunluo was momentarily stunned, a hint of disbelief in her eyes. She reached out to touch her face, saying, “Young Master Ye, how did you know it was me?”

“…”

Ye Anping sighed softly, walked up to her, and gently twisted her nose.

Click—

The originally crooked nose straightened out.

“Senior Sister Xiao, now you look human.”

“…”

Xiao Yunluo touched her nose, looking embarrassed. Finally, she decided to tear off the face, revealing her original appearance. She looked at Ye Anping and whispered, “Young Master Ye, can you not tell Lianxue that I came to find you secretly?”

“What’s wrong? Did you disagree with my junior sister?”

“No, no!! No quarrel.” Xiao Yunluo pursed her lips and said, “Anyway, don’t mention it. If you do, she’ll definitely be mad at me. I just wanted to ask you some questions, if it’s possible…”

Ye Anping pondered for a moment, roughly understanding her intentions.

In the game, after increasing Feng Yudie’s favorability, she would ask Feng Yudie to practice together.

Now that her junior sister’s favorability had increased, Xiao Yunluo likely wanted the junior sister to take her to practice. However, the junior sister could dance but wasn’t good at teaching. In other words, her junior sister was intelligent but struggled with verbal communication.

Since she had chosen to contact Si Xuanji, her junior sister couldn’t help in this matter. Only he, as her senior brother, could assist.

Ye Anping nodded and gestured, “Let’s go inside and talk.”

“Ah… alright.”
