The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix-Chapter 83: The Heroine’s Companion

**Heavenly Cloud Peak**, the martial arts training ground.

"Elder Qin, thank you for your guidance!!!"

The twenty disciples who entered **Heavenly Cloud Peak** through the selection process cupped their hands and saluted a woman standing before them, who appeared to be in her early twenties.

The woman nodded, then her eyes swept over them, and she said, "Feng Yu Die, Pei Lianxue, Xiao Yunluo, the three of you come with me. The rest of you are dismissed."

In an instant, except for the three people whose names were called, the other seventeen disciples slumped on the ground, gasping for air. The sword lesson at the **Heavenly Cloud Peak** might have been a little too much for them.

The woman led the three girls to a small pavilion not far away and carefully sized them up again.

"First of all, you two, Feng Yu Die and Pei Lianxue, have completed your *Qi Refining*. I'll take you two to learn how to use the Spirit Gathering Array and start the *Foundation Building* practice in a moment."

"Thank you, Elder Qin." Pei Lianxue hastily thanked her.

Elder Qin nodded, then thought for a while and asked, "Pei Lianxue, you joined the sect as a companion. You'll need to pay a thousand spirit stones to use the Spirit Gathering Array within the sect. Also, do you have all the *Foundation Building* materials ready? If not, I can give them to you."

Pei Lianxue cupped her hands in response. "Ah... Thank you, Elder Qin, for your kindness, but Young Master Ye has already equipped me with the spirit stones and *Foundation Building* materials, so don't trouble yourself."

At this time, Feng Yu Die was slightly startled and said, "Elder Qin, I have no materials!"

"..."

Elder Qin looked at her with a frown. "You don't have the materials? Then, don't build the foundation if you don't have the materials. Tsk... It's only been two months since you joined the sect, and how many times have you missed classes?! You still dare to ask me for the materials..."

"Ah haha... It was too cold today to get up. Why do you have classes in the morning, Elder Qin..." Feng Yu Die shrank her neck and giggled, then blinked and said innocently, "But, haven't I practiced quite well?"

"..."

Elder Qin glared at her but then sighed heavily, feeling an inexplicable melancholy in her heart.

As a sword teacher, what bothered her the most wasn't those students who were really careless.

Not all children could be taught.

What bothered her the most were 'ruffians' like Feng Yu Die---people who were usually lazy and fooled around yet still came out on top every time.

Previously, in order to dampen Feng Yu Die's unbridled spirit, she initiated a sparring session with her in front of the other disciples. At that time, she used magical tools to contain her cultivation to an appropriate level.

Although she eventually defeated Feng Yu Die, the battle was quite laborious. If she had been distracted or hesitated for a moment, she would have been cut down by Feng Yu Die's wooden sword in front of all the disciples.

You know, she was a sword cultivator in the middle stage of *Nascent Soul*!

Even with her cultivation level suppressed, it shouldn't be so frustrating to win against a *Qi Refining* stage cultivator.

Elder Qin shook her head. "As expected, people who share the same traits will find each other. You, girl, and Master Taixu have the same manner..."

Upon hearing her master's name, Feng Yu Die's eyes lit up and she quickly asked, "Eh? Elder Qin, do you know my master?"

*That old hag used to beat me every day*... Elder Qin rolled her eyes at Feng Yu Die and ignored her. Then, she looked at Xiao Yunluo and said, "Miss Xiao, Mr. Qi sent a message to me earlier and asked you to come over after class. It seems to be about your companion for *Foundation Building* study and practice."

"Yes..." Xiao Yunluo immediately cupped her hands, then froze, and suddenly reacted. "Companion... What companion?!"

"Right. In the *Foundation Building*, you need to practice outside from time to time, to gain experience. Usually, two people go together so that they can take care of each other."

"I know..." Xiao Yunluo nodded, then looked at Pei Lianxue. "... I can go with them."

"Yes, of course you can go with them, but you are the Young Lady of the ***Black Star*** Sect, after all. I think someone should be specially arranged for you to protect you. Do you understand?"

"... I do not need it!!"

"Well, I'm afraid this matter has been decided." Elder Qin sighed softly and said, "And... it seems to have been settled by the Matriarch herself."

Startled, Xiao Yunluo pursed her lips and lowered her head fearfully.

"Mom, did she..."

"Go to Mr. Qi's place later, and he will tell you."

"I understand." Xiao Yunluo nodded.

Seeing Xiao Yunluo's reluctant look, Feng Yu Die slipped over and asked, "Sister Xiao, don't you want a companion?"

"I really don't." Xiao Yunluo glanced at her. "I like to be alone."

"But what if it's a beautiful big sister?" Feng Yu Die comforted her. "Look how beautiful my companion is. Don't you want a companion like Sister Pei?"

"..."

Xiao Yunluo looked at this second idiot, like looking at a fool.

However, after glancing at Pei Lianxue, she suddenly said, "Then, why don't we switch? Sister Pei will be my companion, and my companion will be yours?"

"Hmph! Nice try! Sister Pei won't agree." Feng Yu Die turned to Pei Lianxue and winked. "What do you say, Sister Pei?"

Pei Lianxue ignored her and comforted Yunluo again. "Yunluo, it's all right. Maybe it will be a very nice person?"

"Uhm..."

Hearing Pei Lianxue's comforting words, Xiao Yunluo wiped away the reluctance on her face.

After that, they said their goodbyes, and Pei Lianxue and Feng Yu Die followed Elder Qin's flying sword to the ***Black Star*** Sect Spirit Gathering Array.

After watching them disappear from sight, Xiao Yunluo summoned her flying sword and flew towards the academy where Mr. Qi was.

At dusk.

Ye Anping had just finished tallying today's physiotherapy center's income with Bai Yuexin.

He had previously bought *Foundation Building* materials for his sister and himself, but now, his bulging wallet bottomed out again. According to the saying, *'Plant more fields to store more grain'*, if there was not enough 'grain' in the bag, Ye Anping would always feel like something was wrong."

But fortunately, due to Feng Yu Die, he could replenish some 'grain'.

"Sister."

"Hey!" Bai Yuexin stopped her hand on the abacus and raised her head. "What's wrong? Do you want a hug?"

"No..." Ye Anping sighed and said, "I plan to return to the ***Hundred Lotus*** Sect for the *Foundation Building* practice. Starting tomorrow, I will not open the shop."

Bai Yuexin was silent for a while and suddenly felt a little disappointed. "Then, I won't see you for several months?"

"Well, please help me take care of this shop on weekdays. I'll give you half of your salary for the next few months. Please give notice to the old customers as well."

"This talk about money hurts my feelings." Bai Yuexin glanced at him, then opened her arms and rushed toward Ye Anping, giving him a bear hug. "One last hug."

Resigned, Ye Anping stopped struggling.

However, while being hugged by Bai Yuexin, he suddenly had a somewhat bad idea---if he reset Bai Yuexin's 'good impression' now, for example, by beating her up, then would his "20% discount" also reset?

The "20% discount coupon" in the game was permanently effective. Bai Yuexin was also a friendly NPC and would not be attacked by players. Therefore, even if the player reached the highest level and became a true immortal, he could still enjoy a 20% discount in the ***Black Star*** market.

But this world was different...

Maybe after resetting Bai Yuexin's 'goodwill' level and recharging it to the max again, he could get another 20% discount coupon. In that case, the two coupons added will make a 40% discount coupon.

"Hmm..."

Ye Anping pondered for a while and decided not to try.

He shouldn't be greedy.

And there was something else. Although he was quite reluctant at first, now he felt that having a 'sister' like Bai Yuexin wasn't too bad. The only problem was that...

*---I'm out of breath.*

"Sister... have you hugged me enough?"

"Not enough~ let's hug a little longer~~"

"Hug me a little longer, and I'll suffocate."

Bai Yuexin hastily released Ye Anping and smiled awkwardly.

"Ah... I didn't pay attention, hehe."

"Phew..." Ye Anping exhaled lightly and shook his head. "Okay, I'll go pack up and leave soon."

Just as Ye Anping was about to go to his bedroom to pack, Xiao Yunluo's voice was suddenly heard outside the physiotherapy center.

"Ye... Ye Anping!!!"
