The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

For a moment, Pei Lianxue wanted to stab Feng Yu Die who took away her brother, but in the end, she held back.

---Don't be hasty or impatient, the winner is the one who has the last laugh.---

Ye Anping taught her this and also made her memorize a lot of positive thinking quotes so that she could remember them whenever she encountered difficulties.

Her looks were no worse than that vixen's, and she could also dye her hair silver. Only the value of her spiritual root could not compare to that of Feng Yu Die.

She might not be able to surpass her, but when it came to Ye Anping's feelings, that vixen could never compare to her.

Feelings were not only possession but also the need to give.

Pei Lianxue clenched her fist as if making a vow. "Brother, I will prove to you that I am ten thousand times better than that vixen!"

Brother said that gold always shines. So, she's going to be gold!

"Hmph."

Pei Lianxue stopped looking at the two people walking toward the gazebo and headed to a sword test pole at the edge of the training ground. She took out a yellow talisman from the storage bag, wrote the words 'Feng Yu Die' on it, then pasted it on the pole and started slashing it with the sword like crazy.

"Go to hell, vixen!"

The wooden pole was split into pieces by her in an instant, but she didn't stop. Instead, she immediately found another pole, pasted Feng Yu Die's name on it, and continued to chop.

...

On the other hand, after settling down in the pavilion with Feng Yu Die, Ye Anping knew that she was not someone who liked to beat around the bush, so after Xiaodie brought the tea, he was ready to get straight to the point.

But then he saw Feng Yu Die stealing glances at Pei Lianxue, who was cutting wooden poles not far away and smiling foolishly from time to time. Instantly, blue veins popped up on his forehead, and he couldn't help but slam his hand on the stone table in the gazebo.

Bang---

"..."

Feng Yu Die was like a frightened cat, her silver hair standing up, and she quickly turned her head and sat upright, looking at him.

"Young Master Ye, you misunderstood. I was only looking at the scenery, not your sister."

"Heh."

"Really, this ***Hundred Lotus*** Sect has such wonderful scenery and everything is so beautiful."

"Enough." Ye Anping sighed. "Let me remind you one last time. Stay away from my sister, and let's get down to business."

"Uh-huh!!" Feng Yu Die nodded like pounding garlic and took a sip of the tea that Ye Anping poured for her. "Speak, Young Master Ye, I'll listen."

"I have two things to ask you."

Taken aback, Feng Yu Die supported her chin on the back of her hand, tilted her head slightly, and stared closely into Ye Anping's eyes.

Her silver hair spread over her forehead, half covering one eye.

The silver hair covering her eye brought about a change that made Ye Anping's scalp tingle. But he was not surprised. He knew that Feng Yu Die had started to keep a little notebook now.

As for why she kept that little notebook?

That was because she grew up in poverty and fear, so she developed a calculating and vengeful character. If she lost a penny, she would find a chance to ask for a thousand pennies later.

Now that she heard he had something to ask her, she must have thought he wanted to make a deal with her. And, since it was a transaction, there must be a profitable side and a losing side. There was no such thing as an equitable deal.

At such times, she would be 100% vigilant and never suffer a loss.

"Alright, Young Master Ye, tell me."

"Well." Ye Anping exhaled and said calmly, "I saved your life, so you owe me a big favor. Now I'm going to ask you to repay this favor."

Feng Yu Die grimaced and said, "I thought Young Master Ye saved me out of kindness. Turns out that you wanted me to owe you a favor and get some benefits back?"

"You dare to eat the pie that fell from the sky?"

"I only owe you one favor, yet you want me to help you with two things?"

"Saving your life in **Wuxi Town** was one favor, and asking my mother to use her true energy to heal your wounds was another." Ye Anping narrowed his eyes slightly and did not back down. "If my mother hadn't used her true energy to heal you, you would have missed the ***Black Star*** Sect's selection."

Feng Yu Die stared at Ye Anping in dissatisfaction, but she had to admit that he was right, so she nodded in response. "Okay, that's two favors. What are they?"

"The first one is that you must bring me into the ***Black Star*** Sect."

"Bring you in?" Feng Yu Die frowned and shook her head. "Although I have a letter of recommendation from my master, ***Black Star*** has very high requirements for its disciples. I can't help you."

"You will nominate me to be your companion. All new disciples are allowed to bring someone to accompany them."

"Let me think about it, and tell me the second thing."

"The second thing is that, during the initiation ceremony, the newly initiated disciples will choose one of the seven boxes containing heavenly treasures or magic weapons. At that time, you must choose the box with the word 'empty' written on it and give it to me."

Feng Yu Die was puzzled. "Is there such a thing?"

"Well, it's just a test to determine the disciples' fate." Ye Anping shrugged and said, "It's impossible to see things like fate, so ***Black Star*** Sect came up with this method. Simply put, whoever is lucky will get the highest score in this assessment. The seven boxes contain things of different quality, and the one who gets the best one will get the highest score."

"What's in that box?"

"A treasure that you can't use but is useful to me and my sister."

"What treasure?"

"Something called '*Cold Sand*.' It's not worth much in the Northern Region, but it can't be bought here because not many cultivators in the *Western Region* use it."

Feng Yu Die suddenly felt something was wrong, like, why did this person know so much about ***Black Star***'s assessment?

The selection was held every five years, and the assessment tests were different. Just like the imperial examinations in the ordinary world, the test details were top secret.

She frowned and asked, "How do you know what's in the box? If this was the test topic of the ***Black Star*** Sect, then it should be top secret."

"Is there an airtight room in the world?"

Feng Yu Die frowned and thought for a while. "I can agree to these two things, but I also have conditions."

"Tell me."

"Your sister will come with me as a companion. If I bring a man, what will people think of me... The influence would not be too good."

Ye Anping had already guessed that she would say this and nodded without hesitation. "Then, I will also add one more request."

"..." Feeling that she had been tricked, Feng Yu Die's eyelid twitched slightly.

"Stay away from my sister, don't lead her astray." Ye Anping grabbed the teapot, filled her teacup, and said seriously, "I brought up Lianxue myself. I won't allow you, a fickle vixen, to get your hands on her."

"Fi... Fickle vixen?"

"Well, he's right." Xiao Tian, who had been listening all this time, nodded in agreement. "Yu Die, you are not just a fickle vixen, but rather a bitch."

"..."

Feng Yu Die glanced at Xiao Tian awkwardly, sighed helplessly, and waved her hand. "Alright then."

"Let's have a good deal," Ye Anping raised his teacup, wanting to clink it with hers.

Right at this moment, a violent bang came from the training ground, and both Ye Anping and Feng Yu Die looked over in fright.

It turned out that Pei Lianxue, who was slashing at a wooden pole, had blown it up.

Ye Anping looked blankly for a while, then said, "Miss Feng, go back to your room and rest for today. An elder from the ***Black Star*** Sect will come tomorrow."
