The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Dusk dyed the sky red.

Two horses galloped along the ancient road between the endless dunes.

"Hyah!"

Ye Anping, who was embraced from the front and behind, held the reins and drove the horse with all his might, fleeing full speed along the east road.

Ever since they left the city, their sweaty horse had been running at full speed. Pei Lianxue, who sat in the front, occasionally stuffed sugar cubes into its mouth, while Feng Yu Die, who was in the back, held Ye Anping's waist tightly for fear of being thrown off the bumping horse's butt.

Su Waner was chasing behind them on her pony. Seeing the three people in front of her galloping on their horse as if running for their lives, she finally couldn't help it anymore. "Hey!! Why are you in such a hurry? My... horse is almost exhausted."

"..."

Ye Anping glanced back and saw that the little white horse, which was about the same height as Su Waner, was panting from exhaustion, so he tightened the reins and came to a sudden stop.

"Whoa!"

Feng Yu Die wasn't paying attention, and her face was directly planted into Ye Anping's back.

"Ow~"

Ye Anping pulled the reins, turned the horse around, and stopped, then looked in the direction they had come from.

After coming out of Jade Pass City, everything was endless desert, so they could still see the city on one side of the valley.

Feng Yu Die rubbed her red nose and pinched Ye Anping's waist hard, resentfully grumbling, "Young Master Ye, what are you doing..." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"I'll brake slower next time." Ye Anping lightly apologized to her. "We're almost there. Let's rest here today and continue our journey in the morning."

Su Waner finally caught up with them and stopped her little white horse. She raised her eyebrows, asking, "Master Ye, why are you in such a hurry? Walk slowly. A horse can travel five hundred miles a day. If you run like this, the horse will be exhausted by the time you reach the Heavenly Gate City."

"Who said we are in a hurry? We are on the run."

?

Su Waner followed Ye Anping's gaze back to the Jade Pass City, which was now only the size of a bean. "On the run from what? Demonic beasts?"

Ye Anping jumped off the horse, helped Pei Lianxue and Feng Yu Die climb down, then smiled. "Miss Su, how about we bet five hundred spirit stones? Just bet that Jade Pass City can't last past ten days?"

Su Waner raised her eyebrows and agreed directly without even thinking. She crossed her arms and nodded. "What's there to bet on? Jade Pass is the border of the Central Region. Although the cultivation level of the Imperial Sect's disciples stationed in the city is not high, there is a defensive formation set up by the Emperor of the Central Region himself. Even if there are a few ninth-level beasts, they can never break it..."

Boom---!!

Before she could finish her words, a dark spiritual light shot out from the Jade Pass City, and a loud noise as if the sky was crashing down was heard. In an instant, black clouds pressed down on the city, and the red haze at the horizon was dispersed by scarlet lightning.

The rumble came first, followed by a strong wind.

The two horses, one black and one white, instantly panicked, raising their hooves and neighing.

"Hiiihiii~~~~"

Still shocked, Su Waner found herself thrown to the ground.

Ye Anping quickly grabbed the reins of his horse and patted its neck to pacify it. "Shh~~ Shh---"

Su Waner sat on the ground, looking at the spiritual light rising over Jade Pass City with wide eyes. She didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Although it was her first time seeing it, she understood at first glance: ---That light was the Defense Formation of the Jade Pass City.

The Defense Formation of the Jade Pass City was set up thousands of years ago through the concerted efforts of four Void Returning cultivators. It was originally used to resist demonic cultivators, but after those were driven to the Eastern Region by the Red Moon Matriarch and others, this formation became a mere decoration.

However, now, the City Lord of the Jade Pass City had activated the formation.

Su Waner didn't expect that she would ever see the energy of the ancient formation in her lifetime, but while marveling, she also felt a little worried.

Since Jade Pass City had activated this formation, it meant that the invaders on the border were by no means as simple as demonic beasts.

She now regretted betting the five hundred spirit stones with Ye Anping.

If Jade Pass City launched the city protection formation, it meant they were almost in a precarious situation, and this was only the first day of the beasts' attack.

If she hadn't followed Ye Anping out, she would have been trapped inside the city by the Defensive Formation.

Su Waner slowly stood up and turned her head to look at Ye Anping and his gang who were now pitching their tents. There was a trace of fear in her eyes but also curiosity.

---What were their backgrounds?

---Where did they get their information?

Even on the black market, there was no news about these beasts attacking the city... How did they know about it? Divination? But fortune telling could never be so detailed.

Since yesterday, when these three set up a trap to catch her, she had already felt something was wrong. They all targeted her weak points. If it weren't for the three idiots from the Justice Division who came at the end, she would have been caught.

---They knew that the Immortal Thief's Escaping Technique could not bring people along, and the Heavenly Picking Technique could only snatch things within twenty feet...

---Now, they even knew about the Jade Pass City...

Su Waner's original plan was to gain Ye Anping's trust first, then follow them to the wilderness, strip them naked, and then run away to avenge the beating yesterday. And the dark-haired girl's Black Ice Spirit Sword looked pretty valuable.

But now...

She felt it necessary to change her plans.

If the Jade Pass was defeated, war would surely break out in the Central Region.

And if you wanted to make a fortune in a war, intelligence was definitely the most important.

This kid named Ye was so well-informed, that there should be important benefits to be gained from following him.

Moreover, even if there really was a problem, she could just use the sword of that dull-looking girl to run away.

"Right..."

Su Waner felt that her plan was simply genius. After thinking about it, she stood up from the ground, patted her butt, and walked up to him, asking, "Master Ye, why don't we walk a little further? Isn't it too close here?"

"Do you want to carry your horse on your back?"

?

Su Waner paused and turned to look at her little white pony, which was still panting. She smiled awkwardly and replied, "Yes, you're right. Well, among the four of us, I have the highest cultivation level, so I should be the one taking care of you. If you need help with anything, just ask."
