The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Chapter 130 - Ating, Brother's Natural Enemy

The next day---

The sky cleared up after the rain and the air was hot and humid.

Ye Anping held his waist and stood hunched in the yard, directing about twenty guards to place wooden stakes in a formation.

"That one over there, yes you, move the stake two feet further to my right."

"Yes, Young Master!"

The wooden stakes were about the size of an adult and were imbued with spiritual energy.

The guards didn't know why their young master wanted to fill the main courtyard with these spiritual wooden stakes, and they didn't care. At the moment, they were more concerned with the beautiful silver-haired girl sitting next to him.

Now, all the maids and guards in the mansion had basically acquiesced that the silver-haired girl was the culprit for the young master's current weakness and waist problem, but they were also very surprised.

After all, in the past few months, their young master had slept with his wife in the same room every day and was never seen holding his waist. How come he started supporting his waist after the silver-haired girl arrived?

Ye Anping saw that the guards had almost finished arranging the backyard. He looked up at the sky and estimated the time in his mind-- Li Feng should have started preparing the formation now, so tonight or tomorrow night, the blood sacrifice formation would be activated.

Suddenly, a child's voice interrupted Ye Anping's thoughts.

"Uncle!"

Through this period of time spent together, Liang Ating and Ye Anping have become familiar with each other, and her playful nature has gradually been revealed.

Ye Anping heard the voice coming from above. When he looked up, he saw Liang Ating lying on the roof of the main hall, with her head sticking out, looking at him with a smile.

Seeing him looking over, Ating directly jumped down with a flip from the thirty-foot-high roof, opened her hands, landed in front of him in a "T", then ran over and pulled his hand.

"Uncle, play chess with me. I will definitely beat you this time."

Ye Anping didn't have time to play with her, so he patted her head. "I am busy. Ask your aunt to play with you."

Liang Ating turned to look at Pei Lianxue, who was munching on an apple.

Pei Lianxue liked children very much. Seeing Liang Ating looking over, she nodded in agreement. "Ating, I will accompany you."

Liang Ating was silent for a moment, then shook her head, and replied with disdain. "Auntie plays so badly, there's no fun playing chess with her."

"..."

After that, Liang Ating looked at Feng Yu Die, who was sitting on another chair next to Pei Lianxue.

Right now, Feng Yu Die was dozing off, with a large snot bubble hanging from the tip of her nose.

Liang Ating observed it for a moment, then ran up to her, and popped her snot bubble. Then, she said something that stunned Pei Lianxue. "Second aunt!! Will you play chess with me?!"

?

Hearing this, Ye Anping raised his eyebrows and looked at them, feeling a little puzzled in his heart as to why this girl called Feng Yu Die-- Second aunt?

Feng Yu Die suddenly woke up and looked in a daze at Ating who was pulling her hand. It took her a while to react and asked, "What did you call me?"

Liang Ating tilted her head and said innocently. "Second aunt. The maids said that uncle brought back a second wife who hurt his back..."

Feng Yu Die stared at Ye Anping in bewilderment, waiting for him to explain what was going on.

Somewhat helpless, Ye Anping walked over and patted Liang Ating on the head. "She is not your second aunt."

"Eh?" Liang Ating turned around and looked at Ye Anping. "Uncle, are you a scumbag?"

?

Ye Anping blinked blankly, with a confused look on his face.

Liang Ating explained. "Uncle slept with her but won't marry her. Isn't that what a scumbag is?"

It's just a child's words, nothing more... Ye Anping gritted his teeth and grabbed her face. "I didn't sleep with her."

"Then, uncle, why do you look so drained?"

Ye Anping was silent for a while, then replied with a dark look on his face. "Your aunt did it."

"And my second aunt didn't do anything?"

"..."

Ye Anping forgot to close his mouth, and he was speechless for a moment. At the same time, he felt a little bit unsure about such things as having children.

Although his sister and Feng Yu Die were only fifteen-sixteen years old, not much older than Liang Ating, in terms of temperament, Liang Ating was how a teenage girl should be.

Suddenly, Ye Anping noticed that there was no movement in the yard. He turned around and looked back, only to find that all the guards who were carrying wooden stakes had stopped and seemed very interested in the conversation on his side.

Seeing him looking over, the guards sheepishly went back to their business.

Ye Anping looked at Pei Lianxue and Feng Yu Die's dark expressions and quickly changed the topic. "Ating, where is your father?"

"Over there."

Liang Ating pointed behind Ye Anping, and he followed the direction of her finger.

Liang Zhu just entered the gate of the Jiang Mansion and saw the guards carrying wooden stakes. Although he was confused, he felt it shouldn't be anything good, so he didn't ask.

He just glanced at Ye Anping and turned around to take the side path to the backyard.

Ye Anping raised his voice to greet him. "Brother Liang!"

Liang Zhu pretended not to hear and walked toward the side courtyard without turning his head.

Ye Anping hurriedly added. "There are a lot of benefits!"

"..." Liang Zhu still ignored him.

"... And something you've always dreamed of."

At this, Liang Zhu stopped in his tracks. After thinking about it for a while, he turned and walked toward him.

"You called me?"

Ye Anping sent Liang Ating with Feng Yu Die to play chess in the main hall. Then, he turned to him and said, "You're going to face someone named 'Wu Chengzhou'. He is in the early stage of Core Formation and a demonic cultivator specializing in spells. We'll use these stakes to simulate that man's formations, and you'll be able to deal with him after you've practiced."

Liang Zhu frowned slightly. "Why don't you do it yourself?"

"We are going to deal with the other demonic cultivators. There are three of them. My wife and I are taking one together; the silver-haired girl has one, and you have one."

Liang Zhu looked at Feng Yu Die and Pei Lianxue, then looked at the strangely placed wooden stakes around him, considered it for a while, and asked, "You want me to deal with a demonic cultivator in the Core Formation stage alone?"

"Yep."

"Well, unlike these two ladies, I don't have that kind of ability."

"..."

Saying that, Liang Zhu wanted to leave, but Ye Anping quickly said, "You can handle it, and this time, the reward I offer is something you need very much now."

A place to stay... Thinking of this, Liang Zhu frowned slightly and stopped again. "What do you mean?"

"After the Dragons' Convention, I will no longer stay here. Young Master Jiang will definitely bring his master to prove his identity, and you will not be able to stay either."

"Go on."

"You're a fugitive of the Seven Slayers Sect, and you're on the wanted list of every Immortal Sect right now. I can arrange a place for you, and you will never have to wander around with Ating again. She'll be able to settle down and practice."

"And where is that exactly?"

"The Hundred Lotus Sect."

"Hundred Lotus Sect?" Liang Zhu frowned slightly, hesitating. "Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect, Ye Anping. Is this your true identity?"

?

Ye Anping was taken aback. "What did you think?"

"I thought all your current identities were fake." Liang Zhu said expressionlessly. Wanting to reassure himself, he asked, "Are you serious about that? I can bring Ating to the Hundred Lotus Sect, and they will take me in?"

"I have the final say there."

Liang Zhu didn't say much and nodded: "Then, what do I do?"

"Stand in the center of the yard and protect your body with spiritual energy. I'll teach you how to dodge."

"Okay."

Liang Zhu backed up ten steps and stood between the wooden stakes. He started to condense energy and mobilize his spiritual power to protect his body.

Ye Anping retreated to the position where he had just stood, released his spiritual energy, and in an instant, those fifty-odd wooden stakes in the courtyard floated up in turn.

"Brother Liang, you can only use your physical skills to dodge. If you get hit, you start over. The first method is to encircle and kill, using the two southeastern locations as killing opportunities. You only need to pay attention to the southeast sides."

"Well... bring it on."
