The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

The next day.

Tick, tick...

The ethereal sound of dewdrops falling into puddles made the atmosphere in the room extraordinarily tranquil.

On the bed by the window, Feng Yu Die opened her eyes and turned her head to look outside. The sky was gray, and she couldn't tell what time it was.

Sitting on the windowsill, Xiao Tian noticed that she was awake and flew to the bedside, asking with a worried face, "Yu Die, how are you doing? Does anything hurt?"

Feng Yu Die tried to clench her fists, then moved to get up from the bed, but when she stood up, her legs gave out and she sat down again.

"Still a little weak in the legs, but I feel much better."

Xiao Tian flew to her shoulder, leaned on her head, and said, "Yu Die, you do not know how dangerous the situation was. If that kid and his sister came a quarter of an hour later, your primordial soul would have been completely dispersed. I was worried to death."

"Didn't I survive?" Feng Yu Die relaxed and collapsed back on the bed before cheerfully saying, "Hmph, I really am a child of fortune! I can even survive the encounter with a demonic cultivator."

"Come on, haven't you heard that there is such a thing as 'pushing your luck'?" Xiao Tian gave her a blank look.

"What, didn't you tell me that I am the bearer of the Mandate of Heaven?*"

"Indeed, you have the Mandate of Heaven and the bloodline of the Holy Emperor, therefore you are able to see me, but do you know what those kids who saved you did?"

"What did they do?"

Xiao Tian smiled crookedly and said, "They killed the demonic cultivator who attacked you. I saw that demon burned down to ashes by the two of them."

For a moment, Feng Yu Die thought she heard it wrong, and she asked, "Hadn't that demonic cultivator already reached the Nascent Soul stage?"

"Indeed." Xiao Tian nodded and said, "I still can't believe it. Those kids' spiritual roots are not particularly outstanding, but their cultivation speed is far beyond that of their peers. The boy reached the third level of the Qi Refining stage at fifteen years old, and the little girl completed the Qi Refining stage at only fourteen."

"..."

"Furthermore, they were able to kill a Nascent Soul stage demonic cultivator, overcoming the huge two-level gap separating them. Although, at that time, the demonic cultivator had already been injured by the golden dragon. Still, being able to kill that man is enough to show the power of those two."

"Really?"

"I saw it with my own eyes." Xiao Tian nodded and flew toward her with his arms spread. "Let's not mention the boy. After all, his cultivation base is only the third level of Qi Refining and he can't defeat you, but the girl is different. In front of her, you won't even last five moves, do you believe me?"

Xiao Tian wanted to discipline Feng Yu Die's dashing spirit.

Competition makes people feel pressure, while pressure pushes people to grow faster. He always felt that Feng Yu Die lacked a worthy competitor.

Her aptitudes were really great. Over the past ten years, almost all people her age, or even ten years older, had been defeated by her. This time, that demonic cultivator taught her a lesson, and that Pei girl could also inspire her.

"Turns out Miss Pei is so powerful."

"Well, there's always someone better." Xiao Tian lectured, nodding deeply. "So, you have to work harder, you know? You are more qualified than that Pei girl, and she will certainly not be able to compare with you in the future. But, if you keep fooling around like this, only thinking about roast chickens and having fun all day long, sooner or later you will waste your spiritual root..."

However, after listening to his lecture, Feng Yu Die didn't receive the inspirational shock he intended. Instead, she inexplicably blushed.

Xiao Tian frowned. "Why are you blushing?"

Covering her face, Feng Yu Die smiled shyly. "Miss Pei is so beautiful and powerful, and she also saved me. I think..."

"What do you think?"

"I... think I am in love with her."

Xiao Tian's expression froze for a moment, then she pinched the bridge of her nose helplessly before giving her a flying kick on her forehead.

"Yu Die!!! I didn't tell you this to make your heart flutter, but it's for you to feel a sense of crisis if you do not work hard..."

"I know, I know!" Feng Yu Die waved her hand and laughed, saying, "But, Xiao Tian, look, I am also a young girl, feeling confused. How can I not be impressed? Besides, she is my savior!"

Xiao Tian was speechless. "Yu Die, the boy is also your savior. I could understand if you were attracted to him, but why are you attracted to the girl?"

"Men are all bad."

"..."

Feng Yu Die giggled and asked, "Xiao Tian, do you think Miss Pei has a crush on me?"

"You have such a good impression of yourself. Do you think all girls are as shameless as you?"

"But she was by my bedside all day yesterday and peeled apples for me." After saying that, she took out the apple core that Pei Lianxue threw to her when she left yesterday from under the pillow, and Xiao Tian's face twitched.

"...You kept this apple core under your pillow last night?"

"Yes, Miss Pei peeled it for me." Feng Yu Die smiled. "I thought I'd put it under my pillow so I could dream about her when I sleep."

"..."

This time, Xiao Tian was really speechless.

It was true that, after all, Feng Yu Die was a fifteen-year-old girl, and it was normal for her to have secret feelings for someone powerful and good-looking.

Normal, my ass!

This girl was like a deer in the headlights because of another girl. If her master, the great Taixu knew that she was like this, he would definitely whip her ass.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Xiaodie entered with a bowl of medicinal porridge. Seeing that Feng Yu Die had woken up, she greeted her with a smile. "Miss Feng, are you awake? This is the medicinal porridge specially prepared by the young master today to help you recover faster."

"Hmm?! You are... Xiaodie, right? Miss Pei told me about you yesterday."

"Yes, Miss Feng, just call me Xiaodie." She walked to the bed with the porridge and handed it to her, saying, "While you are in the Hundred Lotus Sect, if you need anything, just let me know. The young master said we should serve you well, so you don't have to be too formal."

"Then, thank the young master Ye on my behalf."

Xiaodie nodded and smiled, saying, "Miss Feng, if you want to thank him, it's better to do it in person. Now, drink the medicinal porridge first, then I'll help you comb your hair and change your clothes. Your clothes were stained with a lot of blood and couldn't be washed, so I threw them away. The young master brought some new clothes and asked me to give them to you."

Listening to Xiaodie's incessant talk about the 'young master', Feng Yu Die felt that the young master had taken a fancy to her and asked this maid to come and gain her favor.

After a pause, Feng Yu Die swiftly changed the subject and asked, "Well... By the way, where is Miss Pei?"

"Miss Pei should be practicing her sword in the training field with the young master."

"...Can I go and have a look later?"

"Of course. I'll take you there after you finish the porridge."
