The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

Chapter 564 - Yu Die Can't Eat Roasted Chicken Anymore

Squeak—

Rustle...

"Are you still sleeping? We've already reached the Western Region. Xiao Tian, have you checked Yu Die's body?"

"I have checked! The previously injured meridians, spiritual sense, energy, and golden core are all fine, and the depleted spiritual energy has also recovered. I also asked the old dragon to pass on the spiritual energy to Yu Die… but she..."

"She has been sleeping for almost two months. Miss Gu's previous injuries were much more serious than hers, and she woke up a month ago… Xuanji also said that she should have woken up earlier. If nothing works, we can only wait until we return to Black Star Sect to find Doctor Zhou..."

"Well… Anping, I have a way..."

"Tell me."

"Well, how about you try to pass on your yang energy to Yu Die?"

"?"

"It doesn't affect her, hehe… anyway… ah?!! Anping, just give it a try..."

"How can I try it, I can't do it! And what if she wakes up in the middle of it? You stay here and call me when she wakes up."

Squeak—

"Oh~ Really, Yu Die is so cute when she's asleep, what's the big deal... You're already a couple."

Pah—

"Yu Die, wake up~ If you don't wake up, Anping will be eaten up by Miss Pei and the others! Ah~~ Yu Die, you've been sleeping for almost two months, it's time to wake up! Yu Die!! Yu Die~~"

Pah—

… … 

Feng Yu Die felt that she heard the voices of Ye Anping and Xiao Tian talking, and she slowly opened her eyes and turned her head to look at the window.

The window was half-open, and the sun was shining outside. The mountains in green robes were scrolling rapidly toward the back.

"Hmm?" Feng Yu Die sat up in a daze and found herself lying in the cabin of the immortal ship. She looked around in confusion. 

She remembered that when she, Blacky, Sister Xiao, Xiao Tian, and Xue'e activated Yu Yan's formation together, her vision suddenly went black, and then she couldn't remember anything. 

Where am I? 

"..." 

That's right! Where is Young Master Ye?! 

Thinking of Ye Anping, Feng Yu Die's expression suddenly froze, and without saying a word, she lifted the soft blanket covering her body and prepared to look for him. 

Because she lost consciousness at that time, she didn't know what happened with Sun Juehu, so now she was worried, fearing that Ye Anping had encountered some trouble and got injured during her sleep... 

However, when she saw a steaming roasted chicken on the table next to her, Feng Yu Die suddenly felt relieved again. She twitched her nose and sniffed, and immediately smelled the roasted chicken that was made by Young Master Ye for her. 

Master Ye's roasted chicken was completely different from the roasted chicken sold at the market. It had the kind of fragrance that made her mouth water when she smelled it. It was extremely soft and glutinous in her mouth. The juice in the meat seemed to have spirit, and when she bit it, the secret sauce fully exploded between the taste buds. 

She would be willing to be Anping's wife forever if she could eat three hundred roasted chickens every day!

"Hehe..." 

Looking at the roasted chicken on the table, covered with gauze and kept warm by the flint, Feng Yu Die giggled, put her feet into the embroidered shoes neatly placed beside the bed, and walked to the table, ready to eat. 

However... 

After tearing off a piece of chicken skin and chewing it, Feng Yu Die felt that it tasted like chewing wax, which was completely different from the roasted chicken of Ye Anping in her memory. 

"Is it because it was warmed with flint and left for too long... slurp... gulp—"

Feng Yu Die frowned and lost her appetite for some reason. But thinking that it was made by Ye Anping after all, she was reluctant to waste it, so she simply forced herself to continue eating it in small bites.

But after only eating seven or eight bites, she felt a surge of gastric juice rising from her stomach along the esophagus...

Feng Yu Die couldn't hold it back and quickly turned to the side, covered her chest, lowered her head, and retched.

"... Bleagh– cough cough... cough cough..."

However, she didn't spit out anything, just a little saliva fell on the floor from the corner of her mouth.

She wiped her mouth with her arm, and suddenly felt her vision go black again. She swayed twice, almost falling off the round stool.

"Huh?"

Sweat broke out on her forehead, and her whole body was sore and weak...

She was fine when she woke up, what just happened?

Feeling fear, Feng Yu Die tried to shout toward the door. "Master Ye… Master Ye!! Master Ye… Help… Master Ye..."

However, her voice was so weak that it could not break through the door and reach Ye Anping, whose whereabouts were unknown.

Even in the room, it might not be heard clearly by others.

She tried to stand up and walk out of the cabin, but she did not have the strength.

"Woo… Woo..."

"Hey? Yu Die, you are awake..."

Xiao Tian's golden head poked down from the ceiling above. Seeing Feng Yu Die sitting at the table, she was surprised and flew down quickly. "Yu Die, you have been sleeping for two months. Anping is worried about you and comes to see you whenever he is free. If the roasted chicken gets cold, he will cook it again for you. He just roasted this chicken for you. Eat it while it is hot!"

As she spoke, Xiao Tian suddenly realized that Feng Yu Die's face was not quite right. She tilted her head with a puzzled look and asked with a frown, "Yu Die, what's wrong with you?"

Feng Yu Die's brain was like tofu. She looked at Xiao Tian with her golden eyes full of confusion. After a long pause, she finally managed to utter, "Eat... can't eat..."

!

Her Yu Die couldn't eat roasted chicken!!

When Xiao Tian heard this, she was horrified, and then she quickly floated up and flew straight upstairs, shouting in an anxious voice, "Yu Die, hold on for a while!!! I'll call Anping over!!!"

… … 

On the open platform at the top of the immortal ship's stern, wooden swords were heard clattering incessantly. 

Pei Lianxue and Gu Mingxin, each holding a wooden sword in their hands, were sparring in an open area cleared by Qiu Shuirou, and the fight was quite fierce.

Not far away, under a large parasol, three wheelchairs were sitting around a wooden table. Si Xuanji, Xiao Yunluo, and Mo Chi Ling were eating melon seeds and fruits, enjoying the comfort of spring in the Western Region. 

Ye Anping was naturally accompanying them. 

He had stayed in the Eastern Region for more than a year during this trip. The Eastern Region was overcast all year round, and the sun and moon were basically invisible. Now that he was back in the Western Region, he felt relieved. 

"Aah~~ Anping... open your mouth." 

A small white hand picked up a freshly peeled melon seed and brought it to Ye Anping's mouth. 

Ye Anping withdrew his gaze from the sword fighting and saw Si Xuanji squinting and at him gently. He opened his mouth helplessly to receive the melon seed. 

Xiao Yunluo, who was sitting on the other side, was not willing to be left behind as she watched her feed Ye Anping. She quickly brought an orange piece she had just peeled to Ye Anping's mouth. "Anping, eat mine too."

"Ah… Okay."

A bite of melon seeds, a bite of orange...

Mo Chi Ling, who was drinking tea at the opposite table, looked at Si Xuanji and Xiao Yunluo and suddenly smiled. She rolled her eyes and asked, "Mr. Ye, is the orange more delicious or the melon seeds?"

?

Ye Anping's face darkened in an instant. He looked at Si Xuanji and Xiao Yunluo who were expecting him to give an answer and felt defeated.

But Xiao Yunluo looked at her master and argued. "Of course it's oranges! Master, I've never seen Anping eat melon seeds before."

Si Xuanji pursed her cat-like mouth, turned her yin-yang eyes to her, and said, "Yunluo, you dare to challenge me..."

"Ah..." Xiao Yunluo shrank her neck but still answered unyieldingly. "So what... We are all Anping's cultivator companions. Master, don't think that you can... Woo—"

Si Xuanji raised her finger and drew it horizontally. Xiao Yunluo's mouth seemed to be sewn shut, and she could no longer open it.

—"No martial ethics!! No martial ethics!"

The parrot, who was standing on the bird stand nearby, started to make a ruckus.

Ye Anping sighed and touched Si Xuanji's forehead, advising her. "Xuanji, don't mess with Yunluo... Yunluo, you too, why fight about this kind of thing, Xuanji is your master after all..."

Si Xuanji thought about it, and simply asked again, "Anping, then tell me, who did you like more that night? Yunluo or me?"

"..."

Ye Anping hesitated, caught in a dilemma, and some romantic scenes appeared in his mind.

He remembered how, that night in the Brilliance City, when he was together with Xiao Yunluo and Yun Yiyi, Xiao Yunluo was vying for it all the time, saying "Anping, it's my turn~ It's my turn~~".

However, when she and Si Xuanji helped him expel his yang excess together for the first time that day, Xiao Yunluo didn't dare to make a sound unless Si Xuanji took the initiative to give way to her, otherwise she would sit aside and watch...

But as the saying goes, the first time is strange, the second time is familiar.

In the past two months, after one, two, and three times, Xiao Yunluo's true nature could no longer be hidden. She even pulled Si Xuanji in his arms aside the night before yesterday and took the initiative to occupy the nest... 

Although Xiao Yunluo was usually very reserved in front of his sister, Si Xuanji, or other people, she was the most proactive among all the girls around him in that matter. Moreover, her Black Dragon physique was particularly resistant to tossing, a million times stronger than Sister Gu... 

Ye Anping simply ignored the master and disciple as he glanced at Gu Mingxin who was sparring with his sister. 

Ta-ta-ta... 

Gu Mingxin, who was busy parrying Pei Lianxue's sword, saw Ye Anping looking at her from the corner of her eye and suddenly wanted to show off her skills, so she accelerated her movements and seized a flaw of Pei Lianxue... 

Whoosh—

However, she never expected that Pei Lianxue had deliberately exposed this flaw. The moment Gu Mingxin thrust her sword, Pei Lianxue turned around and swept horizontally, directly hitting Gu Mingxin's face with the wooden sword and causing her to fall to the ground with a bang.

At the same time, the wooden sword in Pei Lianxue's hand also exploded because of her strength.

Pei Lianxue was shocked, afraid that she really hurt Gu Mingxin because she hit too hard, and her brother would get angry. She shrank her neck weakly and leaned over. "Ah… Sister Gu, are you okay..."

Gu Mingxin pretended to surrender and suddenly attacked her, thrusting the wooden sword straight to her chest.

Looking at this scene, Ye Anping shook his head and sighed.

"Sigh—"

He had taught his sister since young to be careful of opponents faking their death...

Pei Lianxue turned around to dodge, hugged Gu Mingxin's waist and threw her to the ground with another loud "bang!", then straddled her and pressed her down.

Ye Anping didn't look at them anymore, sighed, and looked over the railing.

Calculating the distance, it would take about ten days for the immortal ship to return to the Black Star Sect. At that time, he would immediately ask Doctor Zhou to help find out what Yu Die's problem was...

And just as he was thinking this, Xiao Tian suddenly crawled out from the floor under his feet and hugged his face with a horrified look. "Anping!!! Anping!!!"

Seeing its panicked expression, Ye Anping frowned and asked with his eyes:

—What's wrong? What happened to Yu Die?

"Yu Die she… she..."

"..."

"She can’t eat roasted chicken anymore!!!"

?!!

"What?"

Startled by Xiao Tian's words, Ye Anping stood up without saying anything and ran downstairs quickly.

Si Xuanji and Xiao Yunluo were stunned for a moment, but before they could come to their senses, Ye Anping had already rushed out.

Xiao Yunluo tilted her head. "Hmm? What's wrong with Anping?"

Si Xuanji lowered her eyes and covered her mouth, chuckling twice. "Heehee..."

"Ah? Master… what are you laughing at?"

"Hasn't Feng Yu Die been out cold for two months? Anping asked me to see her before. Although I told him that she was fine, but..."

Si Xuanji smiled, adding, "Well... Let Anping find out about this himself... Yunluo, you have to work harder."

"Eh? What?"

"Let's go, you'll know if we follow them... Shuirou~"

Qiu Shuirou, who was waiting quietly on the side, came up with a smile, pushed Si Xuanji's wheelchair, and followed Ye Anping to the cabin...

… … 

What happened?

Xuanji had said that she was fine...

Why suddenly...

After rushing down the stairs, Ye Anping ran along the corridor toward Feng Yu Die's cabin and accidentally knocked down a disciple who was carrying a lot of things on the way.

Although he had been calm and collected before, and had tea with his sister and the others every day, he was actually worried because Feng Yu Die had not woken up for two months.

After all, for cultivators, as long as the cause of the disease was found, there was almost no such thing as a "terminal illness", and there were medicines to treat it.

However, cultivators were afraid of those situations where there would be a problem with their bodies, but no matter how hard they checked, they couldn't find the cause. 

After experiencing the battle with He Buqun and the matter of Yu Yan, Ye Anping was afraid that he had overlooked some details, causing Feng Yu Die to suffer from some kind of disease...

Tap tap tap—

Ye Anping ran in front, Xiao Tian chased behind, and even Xue'e, who had been in Gu Mingxin’s soul realm, caught up with them.

"Golden fool, what happened?"

"Black bastard, Yu Die... woo woo... she can't eat the roasted chicken."

"?"

Xue'e didn't understand, but seeing Ye Anping so anxious, she felt that it was probably a big deal, so she flew up to comfort him. "Ye Anping, don't worry, calm down. I'm here, and there's an old woman who's thousands of years old upstairs, right? It's okay..."

Ye Anping gritted his teeth and tried to calm himself down, but for some reason, the deeper he took a breath, the more nervous he became.

For so many years, he rarely felt this anxious.

—Damn the Heaven's mischief...

Tap tap tap--

The footsteps echoed in the corridor.

Ye Anping ran to Feng Yu Die's room, pushed the door open, and what he saw was:

A pale Feng Yu Die had fallen beside the table, and the roasted chicken that had been nibbled on had fallen near her as if it was poisonous.

"Yu Die!!"

Ye Anping's eyes widened, and after a moment of shock, he hurriedly ran up, hugged Feng Yu Die who was lying on the ground, knelt, and sent his spiritual sense into her body.

It looked like... anemia?!

A cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage who was anemic?!

What's more, Feng Yu Die also had the Spring Phase spiritual energy, how could she be anemic?

Feng Yu Die, who was leaning in his arms, grabbed his collar at this moment, as if she was about to cry, revealing a kind of weakness that was not at all like her usual self. Like a child with a fever, she whispered softly. "Anping... I... I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry, I am here. Calm your mind first, don't let your spiritual energy spread randomly..."

Ye Anping comforted Feng Yu Die with words, but after thinking about it, suddenly his father's expensive red-crown crane emerged in his mind.

Although he had used his spiritual sense to check Feng Yu Die's body several times before, he missed a place.

The lower abdomen of a cultivator was a place where the spiritual sense could not enter.

Because of the yang and yin energy, even if the spiritual sense was sent there, it was like being blindfolded and couldn't see anything, so...

"Could it be..."

Ye Anping's frowned brows suddenly relaxed, and after making a mental preparation, he gently held Feng Yu Die's right wrist, put his index and middle fingers on her pulse, and closed his eyes.

Her vein was pulsating smoothly, and if pressed deeply, it was like a rolling ball jade plate.

"Hiss—"

Ye Anping shook his head in disbelief.

He and Feng Yu Die had not practiced together many times, how could it be possible...

The probability of two Nascent Soul cultivators becoming parents was lower than the probability of a useless spiritual root cultivator achieving the Deification stage...

However, no matter how many times he touched Feng Yu Die's pulse, it was still as smooth as a ball, strong and smooth...

Xue'e and Xiao Tian looked at Ye Anping's expression, feeling extremely anxious. "Anping, how is it..."

"Ye Anping..."

At this time, a series of wheels clattering and footsteps came from outside the door.

Si Xuanji, Pei Lianxue, Xiao Yunluo, Gu Mingxin, Mo Chi Ling, and Qiu Shuirou, six people came to the door at this time. They wanted to come in but were stopped by Si Xuanji.

Si Xuanji narrowed her eyes and called softly. "Anping, I'm sorry I kept it from you before. Congratulations on becoming a father~"

After these words, Pei Lianxue and the others behind Si Xuanji froze for a moment, and all eyes moved to her face, and then to Feng Yu Die and Ye Anping.

Ye Anping looked back at Si Xuanji, feeling a little helpless.

She knew it before, but she kept it from him...

His tense shoulders dropped, and he met his sister's eyes again.

She frowned, seeming a little disappointed, but she didn't say anything as she nodded to him and retracted her head from the side of the door.

Xiao Yunluo was dazed, with a look of "Who am I? Where am I? What's going on?" on her face, and she seemed to have not understood yet.

Gu Mingxin, on the other hand, raised her eyebrows and said with a slightly teasing tone, "Wow~~ White fool, you... woooo—"

Before she could finish her words, Pei Lianxue covered her mouth and dragged her away.

"Don't spoil my brother's moment!"

"..."

Ye Anping wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. After a long silence, he picked up Feng Yu Die, walked back, and placed her on the bed again.

"I won't bother you anymore." Si Xuanji smiled, waved to Qiu Shuirou beside her to let her leave, and then left with the crowd.

Feng Yu Die lay on the bed with a tired face, whispering, "Anping, congratulations on becoming a father... Do you and Sister Pei have a child?"

Ye Anping froze, and then he gently squeezed her hand with a smile. "It's not Sister Pei's."

"Then, it's... Sister Xiao's?"

Ye Anping shook his head. "No."

Feng Yu Die looked at him in a daze and then raised her eyebrows. "It can't be Blacky..."

"Nope????..."

"Red Moon Matriarch?"

"No."

"Then whose..."

Ye Anping smiled and asked back. "Who else is left?"

"Well... Miss Yun, Miss Li..."

"And who else?"

"And..." Feng Yu Die seemed to have just realized something, and her golden eyes suddenly widened. "Mine?!"

Ye Anping nodded speechlessly.

Xue'e floating on the side shook her head helplessly and sighed. "Sure enough, she is a fool..."

However, when she looked at Xiao Tian, she found that Xiao Tian was already in tears, and her silly eyes had turned into two poached eggs.

"Black... black... woooooooooo..."

"Hiss—"

Ye Anping sighed, looked back at the two little ones, then held Feng Yu Die's hand with both his hands and smiled. "Yu Die, you are going to be a mother."

Feng Yu Die was stunned, and just like Xiao Tian, her golden eyes also turned into two golden poached eggs...
