The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix
Chapter 283: Xiao Tian Has Dirty Thoughts

**Heavenly Cloud Peak**, in the bamboo forest on the mountainside.

With her silver hair dancing like a silken umbrella, Feng Yu Die held a sword, and under the drizzle of the bamboo forest, she carefully practiced her own *Nine Heavens Sword* technique and the *Black Moon Routine* given by Ye Anping.

*Whoosh---*

The sword wind scattered like sharp blades, and after a flash of white light, all the green bamboo stalks around her fell to the ground.

Feng Yu Die put her sword behind her back and closed her eyes to steady her breathing. Then, she shook her head like a puppy, shaking off the raindrops on her head, and raised her hand to brush off her bangs.

She placed the sword finger in front of her chest and explored her meridians with her spiritual sense.

Although her cultivation had improved, it had not yet reached the late stage of *Foundation Building*, so it could only be said to be so-so. But what puzzled her the most was this '*Black Moon Routine*'.

When Ye Anping gave it to her, he said it was a secret technique very compatible with her personality. But after practicing for three months, she didn't feel any changes at all.

"Xiao Tian, I have been practicing this *Black Moon* technique for three months, and I don't feel any change at all. Have I been tricked by Young Master Ye?"

Standing under a large banana leaf to shelter from the rain, Xiao Tian crossed her arms and pouted.

The fragment that Ye Anping gave to Feng Yu Die was written in ancient characters, so Xiao Tian had been helping her interpret the content for the past three months.

Of course, she also checked the *Heavenly Dao Scroll*.

The *Heavenly Dao Scroll* recorded what had been heard and seen in the lives of all the humans who carried the *Mandate of Heaven* since the beginning of the world. What one recorded, the next reviewed. However, since it was recorded by human hands, there would inevitably be contradictions and conflicts.

In the end, there was no record of this '*Black Moon Routine*' technique in the *Heavenly Dao Scroll*.

However, she found a somewhat related description that said: *~When humans first came into contact with the path of Immortality, there was a talented cultivator named 'Gu Xuan Yin' (Black Moon Essence), who discovered a remarkable cultivation ability. Gu Xuan Yin later tried to pass it on to people in her tribe but found that no one else could learn it except herself, so the technique disappeared.~*

However, on this page, a former owner of the *Heavenly Dao Scroll* wrote an addition: *~Gu Xuan Yin actually perfected this technique before her life ended. She wrote it on seven tablets and took it to her grave. Over the next ten thousand years, mountains and rivers changed, the land moved, and the location of the tomb shifted countless times. After being raided by cultivators from various places, the fragments scattered throughout the four regions, and their traces were lost.~*

Below were the records of previous *Heavenly Dao Scroll* holders who had searched for the fragments:

*~In the 37th year of the Magic Calendar, the existence of this technique was suspected, but the actual object was not seen.~*

*~Year 1123 of the Lunar Calendar, I have been searching for four years with no results. I've heard that it might be found by the Devil's Heart Lake, but the evil energy there is too strong, and it is difficult to get close.~*

*~In the year 8720 of the Lunar Calendar, there was a thousand-year-old Demonic Nightmare in the Devil's Heart Lake. It had the strength of a cultivator in the Void Returning stage. Don't ask how I knew it.~*

*~In the 7th year of the Ash Calendar, the Demonic Nightmare by the Devil's Heart Lake was destroyed, but no fragment was found. It is said to be on the moon.~*

*~In the year 10293 of the Ash Calendar, the Immortal Matriarch Red Moon of the Black Star Sect reshaped the old moon and made a new one. That thing should have fallen somewhere in the four regions.~*

... ...

It seemed that as early as three calendars ago, the '*Heavenly Mandated*' people that Xiao Tian's predecessors were related to had started looking for this technique, but most of them had given up halfway through.

Xiao Tian wasn't sure if the fragment given by Ye Anping was the same thing that Gu Xuan Yin had left behind, so she didn't record it either, but she still credited Ye Anping. *"Yu Die, if you practice the wrong technique, you will delay your path to immortality. Ye kid may trick you on small things, but he won't deceive you in matters of cultivation."*

Feng Yu Die lowered her eyes in thought for a while, then scratched her hair, nodding. "That's true..."

*"Oh... huh?!"*

Xiao Tian was stupefied and almost didn't react. Her Yu Die had no doubts at all?!

That being said, after returning from the ***Moon Shadow Sword*** Sect, the relationship between Yu Die and the kid Ye seemed to have changed slightly. At first glance, it didn't seem obvious, but there really was something changed.

After a pause, she blinked and tentatively said, *"Yu Die, I also think it's not much use for you to practice that *Black Moon Routine*. Why don't you stop practicing?"*

?

Feng Yu Die turned her head and asked in confusion, "Didn't you just say that he wouldn't trick me? Then, why don't I practice, just in case it turns out to be of great use."

Xiao Tian tilted her head. *"Then, do you listen to me or him?"*

Feng Yu Die frowned in silence for a while, as if she was deep in thought, then glanced at Xiao Tian. "I listen to him when he's here and listen to you when he's not. When I was in the ***Moon Shadow Sword*** Sect, you didn't help me at all and just kept knocking things in my head every day. It was so annoying!"

Although it felt uncomfortable to hear this, Xiao Tian was very happy at the same time.

What did this mean?

This meant that Ye kid's status in Yu Die's heart surpassed hers, the one who grew up with her.

It showed that Anping and Yu Die had taken a big step toward being a couple.

Xiao Tian happily covered her mouth and giggled, then floated onto Feng Yu Die's shoulder, and patted herself on the chest, boasting, *"Didn't I tell you that Ye kid would be a fine match with you? I just can't figure out how that kid could possibly be as good as me, the hidden spirit of the Heavenly Dao Scroll?! Hmph~"*

"Pfft~~"

Feng Yu Die rolled her eyes, but it was only superficial disgust.

After all, Xiao Tian had grown up with her since childhood. Even if she was no longer useful, she would not drive her away.

Looking at the rain in the sky, she took a deep breath, put the sword back into her storage bag, and went back toward her own courtyard, ready to take a bath and change her clothes.

"Anyway, why haven't Sister Pei and Young Master Ye come here yet? Didn't they say they'll only stay in the ***Hundred Lotus*** Sect for a few days? It's been more than half a month. Sister Xiao isn't here either... It's so boring."

*"Hmmm..."*

Xiao Tian heard Feng Yu Die mentioning Xiao Yunluo and remembered the scene she saw when she sneaked into Xiao Yunluo's room on the way back from the ***Dragon House***. She touched her chin, thinking about it, and suddenly came up with a plan.

*"Yu Die, why don't you go to Miss Xiao's house to have a look? There might be something interesting there."*

"Ah?" Feng Yu Die had a confused look on her face, "Sister Xiao is not here. If I go to her house to rummage around, won't I be like a thief? I'm not going."

*"Oh~ Just go and take a look. Didn't you say you'll listen to me if Ye kid isn't here? I asked you to take a look, I didn't ask you to steal anything."*

"..."

Feng Yu Die was completely unaware of Xiao Tian's dirty thoughts. After pondering for a while, she thought she might as well help Sister Xiao clean the house, so she turned around and walked in the direction of Xiao Yunluo's residence.

There were actually ten identical small courtyards in the residential complex, prepared for the top ten disciples. The one where Feng Yu Die lived was five or six hundred steps away from another sister, who sometimes would say hello to Feng Yu Die when she saw her.

However, Xiao Yunluo's residence was located a little further away from the others.

Now that Ye Anping and Xiao Yunluo were not here, it looked strangely deserted from a distance.

Feng Yu Die climbed the back wall and ran to the door of Xiao Yunluo's house. She tried the door, thinking that she would go back if it was locked, but it seemed that, since Sister Bai came here to clean almost every day, she didn't lock the door.

*Squeak---*

Watching the door open, she was still a little unsettled, feeling she was doing something bad, so she whispered, "Sister Xiao, I'm coming in~"

Meanwhile, XiaoTian frowned and scanned the room. Some cabinets had high-level talismans stuck on them, which were supposed to be where the valuables were stored.

She thought for a while before saying, *"Yu Die, look inside her pillow. What could be there?"*

"..."

Feng Yu Die gave her a confused look, wiped her rain-drenched hands on her clothes, then went to Xiao Yunluo's bed. She took her pillow and flipped it to the left side, then rubbed it on the right side.

"Isn't this just a feather pillow?"

Xiao Tian paused for a moment, then put her head through the pillowcase with her butt in the air, and checked the pillow core. She looked for a couple of moments, and then, as if she had found a treasure, she withdrew her head and announced, *"Yu Die, there is a book inside!"*

"A book?" Feng Yu Die tilted her head. "A diary of sorts? Then, I won't read it."

*"Take a look!"*

"Nope!"

Xiao Tian blinked. *"Just take a look. Listen to me!"*

"..."

Feng Yu Die glanced at her. She reluctantly reached through the opening on the back of the pillowcase, took out the book, then blew out the feathers on it and looked at the cover.
