The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix

The spiritual energy of the earth in the "Deep Confusion" swamp was extremely chaotic.

The three girls not only had their vision obstructed, but they also couldn't compete with Liang Zhu and the others in terms of spiritual sense, so they were now forced into an extremely passive situation.

Being surrounded, in this kind of environment, if they could not find a way to break the encirclement or fly to the sky, then, sooner or later, they would be worn out by those people.

In the middle of the swamp, the sounds of iron striking continued.

Feng Yu Die and Pei Lianxue began to show signs of anxiety on their faces, and their foreheads were covered in hot sweat.

They had no idea which direction those people would attack from.

They had to protect Xiao Yunluo while constantly blocking the attacks of the Foundation Building cultivators, which greatly increased the physical exertion of the two of them.

On a high ground not far away, Ye Anping, who was sitting cross-legged and eyes closed, was also looking at them with his spiritual sense, but he was sweating for himself.

As for why did he sweat for himself?

He had never expected Xiao Yunluo to be together with Feng Yu Die and his sister.

After all, Xiao Yunluo was the only daughter of the Matriarch, and she had a body protection spell set by the Matriarch herself.

Once the protection spell was activated, the Matriarch would immediately sense it and rush over there.

At that time, that old hag would probably give him and his "brothers number two, three, four, and five" a hard time and blow their heads off without asking questions.

Ye Anping gulped, quickly took out a tubular iron whistle from the storage bag, and put it in his mouth, getting ready to help.

However, before he blew the iron whistle, something seemed to have happened on Feng Yu Die's side.

...

Swish---

There was a sound of the sword piercing into the flesh and blood splattering.

When "Fifth Brother" stabbed Xiao Yunluo with his longsword, Feng Yu Die, who had blocked the attacks with her sword so far, suddenly changed her method. This time, she blocked with her own body.

When her body collided with the sharp weapon, her left shoulder was pierced by the man's sword.

Because he hadn't anticipated this, the man who stabbed her lost his concentration briefly.

But this momentary lack of focus was immediately speculated by Feng Yu Die.

She gritted her teeth, enduring the sharp pain in her left shoulder, and reached out, grabbing his blade with one hand and his wrist with the other as she alerted Pei Lianxue. "Sister Pei!"

With just this sound, Pei Lianxue instantly reacted and was beside the "Fifth Brother" in one step.

Snap---

In a flash of cold light, "Fifth Brother" fell to the ground.

In the next moment, the "Fourth Brother" from another direction noticed this scene and couldn't help but shout, "Fifth Brother!!"

But this uncontrolled shout exposed his position.

When Feng Yu Die heard it, she immediately released her sword, and with a slight gesture of her hand, she controlled it with her spiritual power and sent it flying like an arrow in the direction of the sound.

Swish---

"Fourth Brother" didn't expect to expose his position with just a single sound, and before he even had time to protect his body with spiritual energy, his abdomen was pierced by the sword thrown by Feng Yu Die.

"Cough---"

Sensing that she had hit the target, Feng Yu Die turned her hand and raised her fingers.

Instantly, her sword also turned around, and with a straight upward slash, it directly split the enemy in two from the middle.

"Now! Go!"

Feng Yu Die gritted her teeth and pulled out the sword stuck in her shoulder, then grabbed Xiao Yunluo's hand and dragged her toward the direction the person had just spoken.

"Sister Pei, keep up! There's no one here!"

In the encirclement battle right now, Feng Yu Die could see that four people were attacking them, hiding in four directions: east, west, north, and south, respectively.

Now that two out of four people were dead, half of the siege was broken.

The only thing Feng Yu Die regretted was that the two men who were killed were the ones in the early stage of the Foundation Building.

If they could have killed one of those in the Foundation Building middle stage, they might be able to rush out directly.

"Tsk..."

Feng Yu Die clicked her tongue and led the other two to run forward for twenty feet when suddenly, in the front to the right, a red light rushed from the ground to the sky, breaking through the thick fog.

Seeing this red light, Feng Yu Die immediately realized that they had fallen into the trap set up by the attackers.

Those four people were just stalling for time, and there should be a fifth person secretly setting up the trap in the dark.

"Hiss--- A trap?!" Feng Yu Die couldn't help cursing. "You, several men in the Foundation Building stage, are fighting with us three Qi Refining cultivators! Do you have too much time on your hands?!"

"Hehe, little friend. If you weren't so valuable, I wouldn't have prepared such a trap..."

The man's voice came from all directions, causing Feng Yu Die's eyebrows to twitch.

At this time, Xiao Tian also got out of her head, looked at the soaring red beam of light ahead, took out the Heavenly Dao Scroll, and opened it.

"Yu Die, this is the 'Big Dipper suffocating spirit' spell which can trap the enemy and consume the spiritual energy of the people inside. It's a one-binding spell of a Foundation Building cultivator. As long as you break the main knot, you can break the whole formation."

"...Where is the main knot?!"

"There are four places in this formation spell that correspond to four points in the Big Dipper."

While Xiao Tian read the contents of the Heavenly Dao Scroll, Xiao Yunluo also remembered the name of the spell and repeated Xiao Tian's words. "The spell knots could be set up as four points of the Big Dipper! I've seen this formation before!"

"Four points?!"

Feng Yu Die grimaced. These four positions were located in the four cardinal directions of the formation. They didn't have time to use the elimination method to check them one by one.

Even if they tried their luck, the probability of 1/4 was not high.

"Let's split up. I'll go to the east and south. You and Sister Xiao take care of the west and north points."

Pei Lianxue hurriedly said, "You two get out of the trap and go north. I will catch up with you."

Feng Yu Die retorted. "If we separate, we will only be surrounded and attacked one by one by them. Besides, I can't move my left hand now, so I can't protect Sister Xiao by myself."

"..."

Hearing these words, Xiao Yunluo lowered her head.

She couldn't help blaming herself. Not only had she lost her sword at first, but now she was also dragging the other two down.

She hesitated, then said in a rush, "You guys don't need to worry about me! I'll stay here and hide."

"You'll die if we leave you here! Those people are coming for our lives."

Frightened, Xiao Yunluo lowered her head and stopped talking.

Feng Yu Die thought for a while, then said, "Let's go together to look for them, starting from southwest to northeast. If we're lucky, we might be able to break the spell immediately."

With that, she picked up Xiao Yunluo on her shoulder and ran west.

However, just as the trio were about to leave, some birdsong rang out in the forest.

Chirp chirp~~ chirp chirp chirp~~

It sounded like a titmouse's song.

When Pei Lianxue heard it, she hesitated briefly, stopped the two in front of her, and listened.

"Wait a minute!"

"Ah?!" Feng Yu Die turned her head with a strange expression. "What's wrong?"

"Don't talk!"

The next moment, the birdsong repeated in the woods.

Chirp chirp~~ chirp chirp chirp~~

Because bird songs were something natural in the woods, Feng Yu Die didn't pay attention at all, but Pei Lianxue reacted immediately after hearing the second song.

---Brother is here!

That was not a real bird song but something her brother imitated with his iron whistle.

"One short and one long, two short and one long." Pei Lianxue murmured. "The main knot of the spell is at the north point! Let's go!"

"Huh?!"

Feng Yu Die was confused, but seeing Pei Lianxue starting to run north, she stopped thinking about it and hurriedly chased after her with Xiao Yunluo on her shoulders.
