The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix-Chapter 371 - The Protagonist Misses Her Roasted Chicken

Under the night sky, light snow drifted.

On the streets of Yulu Town, travelers came and went with waxed paper umbrellas in their hands.

A travel-worn silver-haired woman was sitting alone in a tea stall on the street, fighting with a steaming roasted chicken.

The chicken leg entered her mouth. She bit it, pulled it, and then burped. "Burp~~~"

The plate looked as if a locust swarm had crossed it, with only a complete chicken skeleton left.

Seeing this scene, the owner of the tea stall suddenly realized the truth of the saying, "You can't judge a book by its cover".

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

This silver-haired girl, with bright eyes and white teeth, looked like a fairy, but she ate like a pig that had been starving for three days, which ruined her white fairy hair and stunning face.

But the boss only dared to comment in his heart. After watching for a while, he retracted his gaze and continued to make tea.

Feng Yu Die licked her lips, looked left and right, then beckoned the tea stall owner to come over. "Boss, is there a girl named Xiyue in Yulu Town?"

The tea stall owner paused before saying, "Uh... Not that I know of."

"Forget it then."

Feng Yu Die pouted in disappointment and stopped asking. She asked the boss to pack another roasted chicken for her, then poured a cup of tea, held it in her palm, looking in boredom at the people walking down the street.

Just as she was waiting for the boss to pack the roasted chicken, a golden light suddenly crossed the sky and flew straight toward her.

Seeing this figure, Feng Yu Die's eyes lit up immediately.

---There is news from Young Master Ye!

Xiao Tian had come once before and told her that Ye Anping had completed his Core Formation. When he heard that they had come to the Northern Region, he also followed after them and sent another letter.

Feng Yu Die's eyes were full of anticipation. The roasted chicken sold on the street seemed to lack some seasoning. She had eaten hundreds of roasted chickens in the Northern Region, but none of them tasted better than the one sent by Ye Anping.

Xiao Tian circled in the sky and saw Feng Yu Die sitting in the tea stall, so she floated down, put her small bag on the table, and sat down with her legs stretched out.

"Oh! I'm so tired..."

Feng Yu Die blinked, looked around, and asked in a low voice, "Where is Master Ye's roasted chicken?"

"..."

Xiao Tian froze for a moment, and only then remembered.

Since Ye Anping and Feng Yu Die entered the Core Formation stage, her strength also increased a lot. She could lift some small things and also be used as a portable storage bag.

So, after delivering the letter to Feng Yu Die, Feng Yu Die asked her to reply and by the way, bring a roasted chicken made by Ye Anping.

But the journey was quite long, and she was so tired that she forgot.

"Yu Die, you see..." Xiao Tian looked embarrassed as she knocked her head and stuck out her tongue. "I forgot, heh~"

"..."

The smile on Feng Yu Die's face instantly collapsed, and she raised her hand to pinch her face. "I've been looking forward to it for so long!!"

"Ah..." Xiao Tian shook her head and comforted her. "He's very close. When you see him, ask him for it yourself. Anping has prepared a lot of roasted chicken for you, just waiting for you to eat it."

"Really?"

"... Yeah!" Xiao Tian nodded. "Anping has some news for you. He wants you to be wary of the demonic cultivators on the road. The Eastern Region demonic sects have sent many people to the Northern Region."

"Demonic cultivators again? How come there are demonic cultivators everywhere I go..."

Xiao Tian shrugged. "Then, he asked you to tell Miss Pei that Xiyue is near Heavenly Wind City. He has already gone there, so you guys should hurry over to meet him."

"Heavenly Wind City?"

"From here, it's about a hundred miles to the south. "

"Only a hundred miles? Then, I must hurry up... I'll go tell Sister Pei."

With this, Feng Yu Die stood up and ran out of the tea stall, heading toward the inn in town.

As soon as she said that she had found Xiyue's location, Sister Pei would definitely reward her!

"Hehehe..."

---"Hey, Miss... didn't you order another roasted chicken?"

Seeing her leaving, the shopkeeper of the tea stall hurriedly chased out, waving his hand and shouting.

However, Feng Yu Die turned and said no with a smile before throwing out a few spirit stones, then ran away without looking back, leaving the shopkeeper confused.

Alas, it was also at the time she turned around and threw the spirit stones.

Plop---

"Oops!"

Feng Yu Die was stunned for a moment. Turning around, she saw that she bumped into a girl in her teens, who was only at the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining. She quickly stepped forward to help her up, patted the snow off her robe, and apologized with a smile. "Sorry, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm okay."

The girl nodded weakly and was a little absent-minded as she looked at Feng Yu Die's face, as if she was curious about her silver hair.

But before she could say the next sentence, a calloused hand suddenly stretched out from the side and pulled her away from Feng Yu Die.

Feng Yu Die turned her head and saw a female cultivator who looked to be in her thirties. She quickly cupped her hands and said, "You are her mother, right? It was an accident just now..."

"..."

However, before Feng Yu Die finished speaking, the female cultivator turned around, took the little girl's hand, and continued to walk along the road toward the outskirts of the town.

Feng Yu Die was stunned. For a moment, she felt that the person was very cold; she didn't even say a word to her. After all, she was still a Core Formation cultivator...

She watched the two walk away, and the girl looked back at her, waved, and then looked up at her mother. "Mom, where are we going?"

"We're going to eat something delicious. Don't ask questions."

"But we are leaving town. Didn't you say it's dangerous outside the town at night?"

"Let's go eat something delicious. Don't ask questions."

...

The girl said something to her mother, but because the street was noisy, by the fifth sentence the two had already walked away, and Feng Yu Die didn't hear it anymore.

Although she thought those two were quite strange, she didn't think much about it and turned around to continue walking toward the inn.

But after walking a few steps...

"Oh shit! Fine! Let's follow them and take a look!"

Looking a little annoyed, Feng Yu Die stomped her feet and turned one hundred and eighty degrees, quickly chasing after them.

Xiao Tian floated by her side while helplessly shaking her head. "Yu Die, you really like to meddle in other people's business."

"I have a nagging feeling about that person... It doesn't hurt to take a look."

Feng Yu Die formed a hand seal and used a technique to conceal her aura, maintaining a distance of about ten feet while following behind the mother and daughter pair.

Facts proved that her feelings were not wrong.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the barrier set up at the edge of the town.

Because there were too many demonic beasts in the mountains and forests of the Northern Region, at the edge of every village or town, restrictions were set to prevent those beasts from coming in.

However, Feng Yu Die watched as the two of them walked out of the restrictive barrier in the night, braving the wind and snow, and headed into a bamboo forest outside the town, following a small path.

"Where are you going..."

Feng Yu Die frowned, wondering whether to bring Sister Pei and Sister Xiao over, but seeing that the two figures had disappeared in the forest, it was probably too late to fetch them now.

"Xiao Tian, watch out. Is there anything strange in the bamboo forest?"

"I can't see. The cold air in the Northern Region is too strong, so my spiritual sense can't get through. But something is definitely wrong. Young Master Ye said that there are many demonic cultivators in the Northern Region lately. You might just run into them, so don't be stubborn. If you meet a powerful one, just get away..."

"Hmm..."

...

In the night, the winding path of the pine forest led to a secluded area. With the fine snow falling from the branches, the lights in Yulu Town were getting fainter and fainter.

The girl, held by her mother, finally sensed that something was wrong.

"Mom! Where are we going?"

"Let's go eat something delicious. Don't ask questions."

"..."

From the moment she left home, her mother had only said this one sentence.

Seeing that she had been taken deep into the forest by her mother, she pursed her lips and pulled her mother's hand back. "Mom! I don't want to eat. Let's go home, okay?"

"Let's go eat something delicious. Don't ask questions."

"Mom..."

The little girl's face gradually turned pale, and she wanted to let go of her mother's hand. However, she realized that her mother's usually gentle hand was now like a vice, tightly clamping her little hand.

Suddenly, a man's voice came from ahead. "Stop."

At this command, the girl's mother stopped in her tracks.

The girl was startled, and when she turned her head to look, she saw a tall man clad in a hood hiding his face, walking toward her.

The back of his hand, exposed from his long sleeves, had a scorpion tattoo, and in his palm was a bug looking like a centipede.
