The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Chapter 492 - Brother Became A Demonic Cultivator

It was late at night when they returned to Song Dragon Town from the valley.

Ye Anping was standing by the window, secretly surveilling the endless stream of low-level demonic cultivators on the nearby streets and eavesdropping on the conversations of the passers-by. 

At the table behind him, Gu Mingxin was holding a small knife, carefully peeling Kong Huayuan's face.

Next to her ear, Xue'e held the Heavenly Demonic Scroll in her hand and instructed her. "Mingxin, be gentle here, it's easy to pierce..."

"Uhm~"

Feng Yu Die sat on the other side of the table, holding her sword and pouting. She watched Gu Mingxin across the table with a vigilant look on her face, but she didn't say anything.

Back when they left the Black Star Sect, Ye Anping had already informed her that Gu Mingxin would accompany them on this trip. 

Although she hated Gu Mingxin, it was Ye Anping's request after all, so she agreed.

Xiao Tian, who was sitting on Feng Yu Die's head, was also holding her chest with a solemn face. She occasionally glanced at those two and snorted coldly. "Hmph!"

Seeing Feng Yu Die staring at her like that, Gu Mingxin smiled playfully and called out to her. "I thought you, white fool, would be reduced to ashes by the Nascent Soul lightning tribulation. It's Anping who has protected you again, right?"

"I formed my Nascent Soul by myself."

"Isn't it because he prepared all sorts of treasures for you, practiced with you, and passed on his spiritual energy to you through dual cultivation, that you were able to form your Nascent Soul?"

Hearing that the two of them were arguing again, Ye Anping sighed and walked over. 

Before Feng Yu Die could retort, he patted her on the head, saying, "She formed her Nascent Soul on her own. It had nothing to do with me. And I have never practiced dual cultivation with her."

Seeing that Ye Anping spoke for Feng Yu Die, Gu Mingxin became jealous, and she pouted aggrievedly. "Anping, I thought you came to see me alone, I was looking forward to it. But now you brought her..." 

"I dare not see you alone." Ye Anping kept patting Feng Yu Die's head. "I had to bring with me someone who can match you." 

Gu Mingxin was silent for a while. With her lips pursed, she tilted her head, looked at Feng Yu Die who was holding the sword, and murmured, "Equally matched..." 

The next moment, she suddenly raised her hand, and her blood-colored sword swung directly toward Ye Anping's neck. 

Feng Yu Die's eyes focused as her sword was instantly unsheathed. 

Ding— 

Sparks burst in front of Ye Anping's neck. 

Ye Anping's expression remained unperturbed as if he had expected Gu Mingxin to do this, but Gu Mingxin pouted in dissatisfaction and put the sword back into her soul realm.

"It seems that there is indeed some progress."

Feng Yu Die glared at Gu Mingxin. After seeing her put away the sword, she also put her sword back into the sheath and sat down.

"Hmph."

Ye Anping shook his head slightly and felt a little tired. He sat down, looked at Gu Mingxin's half-peeled human skin mask, and asked, "Is it done?"

"Oh! Almost done..."

Gu Mingxin smiled and picked up the knife to outline Kong Huayuan's face. Very soon, the mask was made after mixing the liquid from several demonic treasures.

Ye Anping took over the skinned face and examined it. Although it was a little creepy, this was the best way for him to change his appearance now. 

Ordinary magic tools could hardly escape the detection of spiritual sense.

This method of disguise, which was only used by ordinary people, did not require any spiritual energy, making it even more difficult for cultivators to see through it.

Moreover, he knew Kong Huayuan's personality and even his life very well. 

Wearing this face, as long as he did not meet Kong Huayuan's father, he was confident that he would not be recognized.

Ye Anping lifted his hair slightly to put the mask on his face, took out a bronze mirror to examine it, and then let his hair down. After seeing that there was no problem, he took off the mask again and nodded to Gu Mingxin. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Gu Mingxin propped up her cheek and looked at Ye Anping with a smile. "Ye Anping, I think you will be better off in the Eastern Region than in the Immortal Family."

"I was born the Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect, my parents are both immortal cultivators, why would I choose demonic cultivation?"

Gu Mingxin lowered her eyes and sighed. "How great would it be if you were born in the Eastern Region…"

"…"

"You would meet me first, be friends with me, and accompany me…"

"There are no ifs."

Ye Anping interrupted as he slowly raised his head. "Miss Gu, after going to Brilliance City, you have to help me break the city defense formation."

Gu Mingxin lowered her head, nodding. "Okay."

"Won't you think about it before agreeing with me? If you help me, you will be the public enemy of all demonic cultivators."

"I know."

Gu Mingxin narrowed her eyes and said with a look of admiration. "Anping, thanks to you, I have nowhere to go back to now. My adoptive father regards me as a traitor, the Great Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect plotted against me in every possible way, and now all the demonic sects in the Eastern Region regard me as a villain."

"…"

"I want you to compensate me. You owe me, and you also owe me the life of this fool Feng."

"What do you want then?"

Slightly widening her eyes, Gu Mingxin stood up and leaned on the table to get closer to Ye Anping. "You have to give me a home."

Ye Anping frowned. He looked at Gu Mingxin silently before nodding. "...Okay."

"Then, I am willing to help you no matter what you do…"

Gu Mingxin sat down with her cheeks flushed, and she looked at Ye Anping sitting opposite her with a sweet smile. "Hehe~"

Ye Anping exhaled slightly and took out the blindfold and iron chain he had prepared from his storage bag. He threw them on the table and said, "Put these on."

?

Gu Mingxin was stunned looking at the blindfold and iron chain thrown by Ye Anping. She blinked but did not ask any more questions. She just nodded and picked up the two things. "Okay~"

… … 

Before dawn, the lights in the brothels of Brilliance City were still on, and strange sounds of "hmmm" and "ahhh" could be heard everywhere in the streets.

Suddenly, two flying swords came from outside the city, attracting the gazes of many Ghost Spirit Sect disciples in the streets. Seeing the person at the front of the flying sword dragging a black-haired woman blindfolded and tied with a chain, they all felt a little confused and rushed to where the flying sword landed.

Ye Anping brought Feng Yu Die and the chained Gu Mingxin to a separate pavilion. Seeing lots of disciples of the Ghost Spirit Sect rushing over, he immediately lowered his voice and shouted hoarsely, "Move! I'm going to teach you a lesson!" 

Then, he pulled the chain hard, and the blindfolded Gu Mingxin staggered and fell to the ground. 

The Ghost Spirit Sect disciples who heard the news and rushed over didn't think much of it when they saw that the Young Master of the Kong family came back with two girls. Kong Huayuan was known as a playboy, and it was not a big deal for him to bring a few women to enjoy, but seeing his angry face at this moment, they were truly shocked.

One of them stepped forward and cupped his hands. "Master Kong, this woman is..."

"Young Miss of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Gu Mingxin." Ye Anping looked up at the man. "Just now, Elder Chen and I cooperated with Elder Liang of the Heavenly Demon Sect's Prison Hall to capture this woman, but she..."

"..."

Ye Anping took a deep breath, pulled the chain hard again, and pretended to calm down. "Go and report to my father that I have captured Gu Mingxin, but Elder Chen and Elder Liang of the Heavenly Demon Sect's Prison Hall were killed by this woman."

"Ah?! What? Elder Chen... Elder Chen was..."

"Hurry up!!"

"Ah... Yes! We will take her there right now..."

"Wait! I have spent a lot of my essence to capture her. I will send her to prison after I replenish it."

"Oh... Okay."

Boom—!

Ye Anping glared at the Ghost Spirit Sect disciples, then kicked the door of the pavilion in front of him open and pulled the chain tied to Gu Mingxin before walking into the yard.

Feng Yu Die followed him with her mask on. Although she knew it was just acting, she was inexplicably happy.

Xue'e looked worried, and she floated from Gu Mingxin's head to Ye Anping's side, scolding him. "Ye Anping! Be gentle! You hurt Mingxin..."

"It's okay... I like it~ Hehe..."

Although Gu Mingxin's eyes were covered with the blindfold, there was still a smirk on her face.

Probably having heard the commotion outside the door, many servants also ran out into the courtyard. A  garishly dressed demonic cultivator woman saw Kong Huayuan's angry face and hurriedly stepped forward, hugging his left arm.

"Master Kong, how did you get hurt like this... What's wrong with these two girls?" 

Ye Anping frowned slightly but did not push her away. If he remembered correctly, this woman should be a demonic cultivator raised by Kong Huayuan. She was a low-level cultivator of the Hedonistic Sect, but she was pretty, so she was taken home by Kong Huayuan. 

He didn't remember this woman's name, so he hurriedly signaled to Xiao Tian, who was sitting on Feng Yu Die's head, with his eyes. 

However, when Xiao Tian tried to get into the woman's storage bag, Xue'e had already beaten her to it. She plunged her head into the storage bag on the woman's waist and then said, "Ye Anping, her name is Xu Mei, a disciple of the Hedonistic Sect, and her bag is full of soul-bewitching pills and... some strange things." 

"Ah..." Xiao Tian felt as if she was useless again and frowned, suddenly feeling aggrieved. 

Ye Anping paused, then simply put his arm around the waist of the demonic cultivator woman and smiled. "Mei Mei... this silver-masked girl was originally the immortal human furnace of Elder Liang of the Heavenly Demon Sect. Unfortunately, Elder Liang died, so I brought her back. As for this girl... hehe... the furnace that I will enjoy tonight..."

When the demonic cultivator woman heard this, there was a hint of hostility in her eyes. She glanced back at Feng Yu Die and smiled. "Then, I will also serve you..."

Ye Anping hesitated for a moment but did not say anything. He nodded and, with his arm around her waist, headed toward the bedroom behind the courtyard.

Not long after, iron chains could be heard rattling in the bedroom.

After the demonic cultivator woman led Ye Anping into the room, she waved her hand to close the door with spiritual power and then started to bare her shoulders which were not decently covered in the first place.

"Master Kong… what are you going to do today..." 

However, just as she reached out to Ye Anping's belt… 

Suddenly, there was a crack. 

The iron chain cracked, and Gu Mingxin broke free from the bindings on her body. In one step, she arrived in front of the woman and grabbed her neck, lifting her high.

"Ah... cough cough—"

 "He is my man, how dare you touch him, a scum from the Hedonistic Sect?!" 

The demonic cultivator woman didn't even realize what happened. She saw that she was no match for Gu Mingxin, so she reached out to Ye Anping for help. "Help..." 

However, as soon as the word came out, Gu Mingxin's red eyes flashed, and the demonic cultivator woman's neck was crushed by her right hand. She struggled twice, then stopped moving, and she was thrown aside. 

Ye Anping glanced at Gu Mingxin, then sighed helplessly and walked forward. After confirming that the woman was dead on the spot, he said, "Sister Gu, you've killed her, how can I explain it later?"

"...Well, I just killed her." Gu Mingxin spread her hands and added, "This woman was the human furnace raised by Kong Huayuan. Who knows, she might be killed by Kong Huayuan himself one day. If someone asks, you can say that you were too angry because of Elder Chen's death and accidentally strangled her too hard."

"..."

Ye Anping pinched his nose bridge. After thinking for a while, he picked up the chain from the ground, put it back on Gu Mingxin, and threw her onto the bed with a little force. Then, he took off his shirt and walked to the side of the bed.

He turned to look at Feng Yu Die, who had a dazed look on her face. "Sister Feng, come over and lie down too... When I tell you to scream, you guys scream. This is not fit to be seen by Kong Xiangmo. He will come over to see his son, but he will most likely turn around and leave when he hears the noise. If he sees my face, my identity will definitely be exposed."

"Ah… oh."

Feng Yu Die glanced at the corpse of the female demonic cultivator on the ground and started to take off her clothes, but seeing her action, Ye Anping quickly raised his hand. "No need to take off your clothes."

"Oh..."

Then, Ye Anping looked at Xiao Tian and Xue'e floating on the side and said, "You two go outside and keep an eye on things. When Kong Xiangmo arrives, come in and notify me."

"...Got it."

"Okay~"
