The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Sensing that the two were so close to him, Wu You was slightly puzzled.

It had been seven days since they had been infected with the toxic parasite, and the poison should have slowly eroded their minds.

Being devoured by toxic parasites for seven days, even the spiritual consciousness integrated into the *Qi Refining* process would result in a madman who couldn't even remember his own name.

So, the appearance of the two people in the same forest as him now was quite strange, but he didn't think much of it. After all, they were only two little cultivators in the *Qi Refining* stage, and they didn't have the Holy Emperor's blood like the girl he had just met.

Even though his *Cultivation Base* was now reduced to half, it was still not difficult to catch those two and make them a blood sacrifice to heal his wounds.

"Heh." With a chuckle, Wu Yu propped himself up on his knees and stood up, then summoned his flying sword again to head toward the location he sensed.

However, when he arrived, he only saw the young man meditating in the woods.

He clearly sensed that both parasites were here, so why was it that only the boy was there? What about the girl who had completed her training?

Ye Anping was collecting the energy around his body, and when Wu You flew out of the forest, he opened his eyes and greeted him with a smile on his face. "Hmm? Aren't you the Senior from before? What a coincidence to meet you here again."

Wu You frowned slightly and immediately became alert as he had a strange sense of rebellion from Ye Anping.

After being infected with his toxic parasite, why did this young man act like a normal person, with a rosy complexion and no signs of degradation?

Seeing his weird expression, Ye Anping smiled, took out a small container from his storage bag, and threw it at him. "Senior Wu You, I'll return these two little bugs to you."

"What?" Hearing him call his name, Wu You's pupils shrunk, feeling that something was wrong, but he quickly calmed down. He waved his hand and pulled out a cauldron with poisonous parasites from his storage bag.

"Little fellow cultivator, I don't know what you're up to, but if you think that you, a small practitioner at the third level of the *Qi Refining* stage, can confront me..."

"Well, I probably can't do it alone, but I've been preparing for this day for ten years."

"...Ten years?" Wu You didn't understand.

The next moment, he felt a cold, killing intent behind him and immediately turned around to face it.

Pei Lianxue, who had been lurking nearby, was now in front of him with a long blue sword in her hand.

Wu You hastily mobilized the true energy in his body, trying to repel her attack. However, Pei Lianxue's sword speed far exceeded his expectations, and it was definitely not the speed that someone in the *Qi Refining* stage would have.

An icy blue glow directly hit the cauldron with insects in his left hand.

Ding!

Sparks flew everywhere as the cauldron hit by Pei Lianxue's sword was sent flying.

Things like centipedes, scorpions, and flesh-burrowing worms from the cauldron were directly thrown out and then cut into pieces by the wind brought about by Pei Lianxue's sword swinging.

"This way of mobilizing true energy..." Wu You stepped back quickly. "You, girl, are you a cultivator from the **Cold Sky Country**?"

"..."

Pei Lianxue didn't answer him, but she swung the long sword again, blowing away all the fallen leaves on the ground. The seemingly ordinary leaves floated around her in an instant.

Just as Wu You was wondering what she was going to do, suddenly, those leaves that she had blown away flew toward him.

Swish~

Wu You reacted very quickly and jumped away to dodge, but his cheek was still grazed by a leaf. That one single leaf had left a long scratch on his smooth face. He touched his cheek, then looked back in disbelief at the leaves that Pei Lianxue had mobilized with her spiritual power.

If he was not mistaken, this little girl had just used the ***Moon Shadow Sword*** Sect's *Leaf Shadow Sword* skill.

That was the secret technique of the ***Moon Shadow Sword*** Sect.

A demonic cultivator like him had been poking around for hundreds of years and couldn't get it. How could this little girl in front of him know it? And also, what about the **Cold Sky Country**'s *Luck Technique*?

Who taught her this?!

Wu You kept dodging the leaf blades that were attacking him. He wanted to mobilize his spiritual energy to protect his body, but Pei Lianxue didn't give him a chance, not to mention that he had been injured by that golden dragon before.

In just a few minutes, his robe had been cut all over by those blades.

"Tsk... to be forced into this situation by a girl in the *Qi Refining* stage!!" Wu You clicked his tongue and no longer dared to hold back.

He had to use blood essence.

Sensing what he wanted to do, Pei Lianxue hurriedly withdrew her sword and jumped back, as if preparing to escape.

"Want to leave? If you force me to use my blood essence, how can I let you go?!" Wu You shouted loudly, and instantly a wave of evil energy gathered into a giant hand, intending to chase Pei Lianxue.

"Take this!"

However, at the same time, an icy blue glow suddenly erupted from the ground, forming a curtain of light, up to a hundred feet around him.

"A magic trap?!" Wu You glanced at it with a growing panic in his eyes. "Heh, what can a mere *Qi Refining* cultivator's magic do?!"

He hastily turned the chasing direction of the giant hand and slammed into the center top of the ice curtain, planning to break the spell first and then go after the girl.

But when the giant hand of evil energy was about to hit the light screen, a blue glow directly pierced it and instantly turned it into an ice sculpture.

At the same time, the temperature in the forest plummeted, and the fallen leaves and soil were covered with a layer of snow and frost.

Wu You was stunned when he felt the cold air.

He didn't understand.

First, the **Cold Sky Country**'s *Luck Technique*, then the *Leaf Shadow Sword* skill, and now this unknown freezing air spell.

Each of them effectively attacked his weak spots.

Ten years...

At this moment, he seemed to understand the meaning of the 'ten years' the teenager spoke of before.

That kid had been preparing for ten years to kill him?

But how was this possible?

And why?

He had never even seen the boy before.

"Hiss..."

Wu You gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, then he calmed down. Although this spell did precisely target his weak spot, it could only trap him here for a while.

That magic trap must have been cast by the teenager and with his current level of *Qi Refining*, he would run out of true energy within a quarter of an hour.

"Let me see what other tricks you two little bastards have?!"

However, just as he said this, there was another flash of cold light. A three-foot blue sword appeared out of nowhere, and by the time he saw it, it had already reached his throat.

Wu You frowned and grabbed the blade with his hand. The blade sliced his palm, and blood dripped along it onto the frozen ground.

He looked at the girl who was swinging her sword at him and laughed. "That kid is really cruel. He even locked you, little girl, in this ice trap. Isn't he afraid that the cold air will freeze you to death first?"

Pei Lianxue tried to draw her sword back, but Wu You was too strong, so she simply let it go and attacked him with her fists and feet.

Still, she was only in the *Qi Refining* stage. Wu You dodged the first and second punches but grabbed her wrist when she punched the third time.

"Heh... I should really praise you guys. Even though you are only in the *Qi Refining* stage, you can make me suffer tremendously, but..."

Wu You grabbed Pei Lianxue by the wrist and dragged her forcefully in front of him, then opened his mouth slightly and exhaled a purple fog in her face. After inhaling the mist, she struggled twice and then completely relaxed.

Seeing this, Wu You released her hands and shouted to the outside of the ice screen. "Hey, kid, your sister has already fallen under the spell of my magic poison. If you still care about her, remove this ice trap."

"..."

"I'll count to three. If you still don't remove it, then when your true energy is exhausted, I will personally let you taste my heart-crushing toxic parasite..."

Swish~

Just as Wu You confidently spoke to Ye Anping, who was beyond the ice screen, a sword suddenly pierced his chest.

"Cough--"

Stupefied, he looked down at his chest and turned his head in disbelief toward Pei Lianxue behind him.

"How did you..."

"My brother taught me." Pei Lianxue pulled out her sword indifferently and then stabbed Wu You again.

Swish~

One stab, two stabs, three stabs...

She never stopped, and when she stabbed the fourth time, Wu You couldn't stand anymore and fell to the ground, but his eyes were still fixed on Pei Lianxue.

Pei Lianxue withdrew her sword, exhaled lightly, and then happily shouted, "Brother! It's done!!!"

However, the magic trap was still not removed. Ye Anping, who was maintaining it from outside, heard Pei Lianxue's voice, hesitated for a while, and then called out, "Slice him!!"

Pei Lianxue only then remembered the rest of the plan and hurriedly took out the fifty fire talismans that Ye Anping had given her in the morning from her storage bag.

Lying on the ground, Wu You was planning to play dead, waiting for the girl to let her guard down. After that, the primordial spirit would separate from his body and take control of her. As a result, seeing her suddenly pull out a stack of fire talismans from her storage bag, his eyes bulged out in fright, and he hurriedly raised his hand, trying to stop her.

"Wait!!!"

It was a pity that Pei Lianxue did not show mercy, and without the slightest hesitation, she threw the stack of fire talismans at him.

"Ahhhhhhh!!!"

The sound of someone screaming and the smell of something burnt filled the forest.
