The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Chapter 413 - Brother, Nice to Meet You



The afternoon sun was a bit blinding. The streets of Brilliant City Market were crowded with people, and stalls selling strange things were everywhere.

Yun Tianchong and Ye Anping walked one after the other on the street. It could be said that they were extremely high-profile.

Not to mention that Yun Tianchong had no intention of restraining his spiritual energy of the Deification stage, which stood out in this street full of Foundation Building and Qi Refining cultivators, and his face, which was like a man with a feminine appearance, was also naturally charming.

Walking down the street, Ye Anping could not count how many female cultivators blushed after looking at him.

Ye Anping didn't want to be a part of the show, so he deliberately pressed down his hat and kept a little distance.

However, seeing Ye Anping being so reserved on the road, Yun Tianchong leaned over slightly and glanced at the handsome face under the bamboo hat, laughing. "Little cultivator friend, you are obviously very handsome, why are you still wearing this bamboo hat?"

Ye Anping replied with a smile, "I know I have some good looks, but now I have a family, so it's inconvenient for me to go out and flirt with other people, attracting bees and butterflies. It would be unfair to my cultivation partner..."

?

Feeling that these words were meant to scold him, Yun Tianchong was stunned for a moment, then he showed an awkward smile and raised his hand to knock on the bamboo hat on his head. "You brat, your mouth is quite sharp. Are you mocking me for being unfair to my cultivation partners?"

"Hehe... it was a casual remark, why do you take it to heart?"

Yun Tianchong shook his head and sighed helplessly. "But it is just as you said. I know that I have a bad reputation, and I was indeed unfair to my partners in the first half of my life. More than a dozen wives gave birth to hundreds of children for me, but now there are only three girls left. Sigh..."

"Master Yun, are you... blaming yourself?"

"Even if I blame myself or feel guilty, there is no cure for regret in this world. The only thing I want is to protect my three remaining girls and watch them grow up properly..."

Was it because his balls had been chopped that his conscience had appeared...

Ye Anping glanced at him, and seeing Yun Tianchong's slightly sad eyes, he felt as if he had really come to his senses.

"It's good to redeem yourself."

"Heh... you kid are lecturing me? But your personality is quite good, much better than the leader of your Black Star Sect. It's good to say what you have to say."

"Well, after I return to the Black Star Sect, I will tell the Matriarch what you said."

"Hiss--"

Yun Tianchong glanced and rolled his eyes at Ye Anping, then knocked on his hat again. "You are so disrespectful, you are really straightforward. If it weren't for me being easygoing, you would have had your mouth sewn shut if you dared to speak to other Deification cultivators like this."

"Didn't you say that it's good to speak my mind?"

"Forget it." Yun Tianchong shook his head before looking around. "You're a disciple of the Black Star Sect, why did you come to the Eastern Wall?"

"To save someone."

"Save someone? Do you need my help? Who do you want to save? Your cultivation partner?"

"Yes, it is my cultivation partner."

"Did your partner get kidnapped, or did she run away from home and come here?"

"To be precise..." Ye Anping looked at him with a small sigh. "She came to the Eastern Wall with her family. The demonic cultivators are coming soon, and the city is going to fall. I am here to pick her up."

"The demonic cultivators are coming to the city?"

Yun Tianchong was a little surprised when he heard this. He looked at Ye Anping's calm eyes and hesitated for a while before shaking his head. "The Eastern Great Wall has been here for a thousand years, even though demonic cultivators have been attacking it almost every ten years. Besides, Fu Xuan of the Justice Division and I are here. If the demonic cultivators come, we..."

Ye Anping sighed again and said bluntly, "This time is different from the past. Now, the Imperial Sect has been destroyed, the Demon Clan has occupied Heavenly Gate City, and the three cities of the Eastern Wall are isolated... In addition, the Ghost Spirit Sect is moving almost in full force. Even if you and the Justice Division Commander are here, if the leader of the Ghost Spirit Sect comes..."

"Where did you get the news? The leader of the Ghost Spirit Sect was severely injured by Red Moon Matriarch and Zu Yuan a thousand years ago. He lost nearly 70% of his cultivation essence and almost remained crippled..."

"But it's been a thousand years since this happened..."

"Alright, I get it." Yun Tianchong frowned slightly and interrupted him. "I'll invite the Justice Division's leader to meet you later. Why don't you tell her what you know and see if she believes you? Back to your business, aren't you here to pick up your cultivation partner? What's her name? I'll send the disciples of the Sword Sect to ask about her in the market..."

"Her name is..."

Before Ye Anping could say the name, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Yun Yiyi, dressed in a golden-white dress, standing on the third-floor window of a luxuriously decorated restaurant not far away. She was supporting her cheeks and staring blankly in the direction of the Great Wall.

Her smooth and soft blonde hair was draped over her shoulders. Under her bangs, her emerald eyes revealed a hint of melancholy and confusion. No one knew what she was thinking.

Yun Tianchong stopped in his tracks when he noticed Ye Anping's sudden silence. He glanced sideways at him and then followed his gaze to Yun Yiyi, who was at the third-floor window of the pavilion.

He immediately pulled Ye Anping's hat down a little to block his view. "What? Fancy my daughter?"

"..."

Ye Anping came back to his senses. He pursed his lips speechlessly and put his bamboo hat back on.

Yun Yiyi caught her father's blond hair out of the corner of her eye and turned to look at the two of them. The expression that carried a hint of longing before instantly turned cold.

Yun Tianchong put on a smile and hastily raised his hand to greet her. "Yiyi~~ Daddy is back and bought some pills for Xi. Where is she?"

"..."

Yun Yiyi, who was on the windowsill, did not reply. She paused, then raised her hand, closed the window, and went back into the room...

Pah---

A breeze swept across Yun Tianchong's blond hair. He put down his raised hand awkwardly and sighed. "Sigh..."

"It seems you and your daughter are on rather bad terms."

"Hehe..." Yun Tianchong shook his head bitterly. "I owe them, so it's fine. Right, didn't I say I'd treat you to tea? Let's go. Justice Division Commander will come soon."

"Alright."

Ye Anping cupped his hands in response before following Yun Tianchong into the restaurant, and they both went up to the hall on the second floor.

As he followed Yun Tianchong to a seat by the window, footsteps came from upstairs. Yun Yiyi, with a depressed look on her face, walked down from the third floor, holding the railing, and came toward them.

"Father, what did the Division people say? Will they help find those lost Sword Sect disciples?"

Yun Tianchong nodded. "I invited the Justice Division Commander to come here. She should arrive soon. Oh right... this."

As he spoke, he took out the Jade Dragon Pill from his storage bag and handed it to Yun Yiyi. "This is the Jade Dragon Pill. Give it to Xi... She'll be able to get out of bed a day after taking it."

"Got it."

Yun Yiyi received the box, then glanced at the mysterious Ye Anping, who was sitting across from Yun Tianchong, his face covered by a bamboo hat, and slightly raised her eyebrows. "And this is?"

"Oh~ He is a disciple of the Black Star Sect. Daddy just met him in the medicine shop and invited him to have a cup of tea."

Yun Tianchong smiled and wanted to introduce him, but realized that he forgot to ask his name, so he turned to Ye Anping. "Little cultivator friend, I forgot to ask you your name just now."

After a moment of silence, Ye Anping nodded and replied, "Ye Anping."

Yun Tianchong nodded too, then turned to look at Yun Yiyi. "Quite a nice name. Yiyi... Go and ask the shopkeeper to bring a pot of good tea."

However, Yun Yiyi seemed to have frozen on the spot. Her eyes were fixed on Ye Anping under his bamboo hat, and she did not respond at all.

"..."

Just as Yun Tianchong was wondering, the jade box in Yun Yiyi's hands suddenly slipped from her hands and fell to the ground.

Ye Anping immediately raised his right hand to catch it. "Miss Yun, please hold it steady. You can't drop this Jade Dragon Pill..."

"Ah... An..." Yun Yiyi pursed her lips as if she wanted to call his name, but after taking a look at her stinky father, she changed her words. "Thank... thank you, Senior Ye."

After nodding and bowing, Yun Yiyi picked up the small box containing the Jade Dragon Pill and fled down the stairs to the lobby on the first floor.

Yun Tianchong looked at Yun Yiyi's back as she ran away in panic, feeling a little puzzled. He put his arm on the table and said, "Young man, let me remind you... that's the eldest daughter of my Sword Sect. Don't have inappropriate thoughts, and don't think that since I'm easy to talk to, you can act recklessly."

Ye Anping smiled. He took off the bamboo hat on his head and put it on the table, nodding. "What do you mean, Immortal Yun? I was just helping her to catch the box."

"Heh..." Yun Tianchong rolled his eyes at him. "Come on, tell me about you, kid. I am very curious. How did you form a Heavenly Dao Golden Core with dual spiritual roots and not be struck to death by the lightning tribulation?"

Ye Anping thought for a moment, then slowly said, "It's not a secret. I've been practicing the hard way since I was four years old."

...

At the same time, Yun Yiyi, who had run from the second-floor to the first-floor lobby, felt as if a stag was slamming into her chest. As she reached the last step of the wooden ladder, she bent over and clutched her chest.

She recalled the last words Ye Anping had said to her when he left the Sword Sect.

At that time, she lay on the bed, looking at Ye Anping's back as he was walking out of the room, and asked a question, "Young Master Ye, will we meet again?"

He, in turn, replied, "I'm sure we'll meet again one day."

Over the past few years, Yun Yiyi had been waiting for Ye Anping's "one day" almost every day.

And just now, the day she had been waiting for, finally arrived.

But...

Ye Anping seemed to have no intention of acknowledging her and even addressed her as 'Miss Yun'.

Was it because her old man was there?

Or had Ye Anping already forgotten about her?

After so many years, Ye Anping should have been to many places and met many girls, while she had only spent a few months with him...

"..."

Yun Yiyi bit her lips lightly and was in a dilemma. Should she remind Ye Anping about it? But it was she who took the initiative to cancel the marriage...

"Woo..."

Her thoughts were a mess, and Yun Yiyi couldn't sort it out no matter how she tried. Finally, she squatted on the ground and held her head, shaking it.

The restaurant owner at the counter stared at her for a while, and finally, he stepped forward and asked, "Miss Yun, are you not feeling well? You want me to call a doctor..."

Yun Yiyi came back to her senses and stood up. "No need! Go make a pot of your best tea!"

"Then, I will bring it up to you in a moment..."

"I'll bring it myself! No need for you to send it."

"Ah..."

The shopkeeper was a little confused, but he didn't say anything. He quickly went to the kitchen to boil water and make tea. Just as he had run out the back door...

A man and a woman dressed in black robes stepped into the restaurant.

The woman in the lead looked young, around seventeen or eighteen years old, but her eyes revealed a maturity that far exceeded her appearance.

She looked around the lobby, and after seeing the blonde Yun Yiyi, she leisurely approached her. "If I'm not mistaken, are you the eldest daughter of the Sword Sect Master?"

"Ah..."

Yun Yiyi was stunned for a moment. When she saw the two people's black robes and the emblem of the Justice Division, she understood their identities and quickly cupped her hands. "Yes, I am Yun Yiyi. It's an honor to meet you, Seniors."

The black-robed man cupped his hands in return. "I'm the Deputy Commander of the Justice Division, Yue Xuanming, and this is the Division Commander, Fu Xuan. The Patriarch of the Sword Sect sent a message to inform us to meet at the Clear Sand Pavilion. Is Master Yun already waiting upstairs?"

"Yes, my father has just arrived and is currently talking to someone in the hall on the second floor."

"Thanks for letting us know."

Yue Xuanming gestured to the Immortal Fu Xuan and followed her up the stairs to the second floor of the restaurant.

When he saw Yun Tianchong and Ye Anping sitting by the window talking, Yue Xuanming's footsteps faltered, and his expression revealed a trace of surprise.

---Wasn't that Liang Zhu's sixth brother?

"Hiss---"

Immortal Fu Xuan heard him gasp and asked, "Deputy Yue, what's wrong?"

"Commander, the youth who is talking to Master Yun is the Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect. His name is Ye Anping."

"Oh~~ You mentioned it to me before..." Fu Xuan nodded. She squinted and sized Ye Anping up, then smiled. "It seems that demonic cultivators aren't just pretending this time..."

Yue Xuanming was puzzled. "Eh? What do you mean..."

Fu Xuan raised her eyebrows and smiled. She said as if she was joking, "This Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect is not ordinary. The places he has been to can be said to be plagued with endless disasters. Haven't you heard of it? The Dragon House, Moon Shadow Sword Sect, Imperial Sect, and even the invasion of demonic cultivators in the Cold Country, all these have his presence in common."

"..."

Seeing that Yue Xuanming was shocked, Fu Xuan covered her mouth and chuckled. "It's just a joke. Don't take it seriously, Deputy Yue."

"...Right."

As the two reached this point, Ye Anping also noticed them and quickly stood up. He cupped his hands and saluted. "It's been a long time since we last met, Master Yue. And... greetings, Commander Qu."

When Fu Xuan heard this, her eyes widened slightly, and she became even more interested in Ye Anping.

After all, very few people in this world knew that her surname was actually Qu...

"...Young Master Ye, there's no need to be so polite."

Yun Tianchong, who was sitting opposite Ye Anping, looked at the three of them in turn. After a while, he stood up and looked at Ye Anping again.

Was this kid familiar with the Justice Division?

Somewhat confused, Yun Tianchong bowed. "Thank you for answering my invitation. I have already reserved a private room. Let's move over there, please."
