The Cannon Fodder Turns His Sister Into A Soaring Phoenix-Chapter 419 - Eastern Great Wall, The Beginning Of The Grand Finale

"Mingxin... I heard what Fu Yuanhua said just now. I think..."

"Well?"

Xue'e pursed her lips before continuing, "Why don't we wait for the war to start and secretly find an opportunity to slip away? We can go to the Southern Region or the Northern Region, find a place where no one knows you, and hide..."

"Hide? Do I look like someone who would hide?" Gu Mingxin frowned slightly, quite dissatisfied. "Not to mention, where can I hide? Wherever I hide, Master can find me..."

"Ah... then... then... why don't you go to Ye Anping and discuss it with him? Let him find you a safe place to rest. If you can't bring yourself to do it, I'll talk to him for you."

"Xue'e."

"Mingxin... I just don't want to see you get hurt. I don't care about the immortals, demons, or the heavenly fate and heavenly scrolls. I'm afraid something will happen to you..."

Gu Mingxin rolled her eyes with disdain, then simply ignored her as she turned around and slid down the dune.

"Hey! Mingxin, think about what I said..."

Gu Mingxin felt as if a buzzing fly floated in her ears. She was extremely agitated, although what Xue'e said might not have been a bad idea.

But she simply couldn't stop being angry!

It's not that she was angry with Ye Anping. She didn't understand what she was thinking. Although Ye Anping had made her suffer so many setbacks, she couldn't hate him no matter what. Instead, she felt that Ye Anping was so cool every time.

Ye Anping was the only person in the world who could put her in such difficult situations.

Without Ye Anping, that Feng Yu Die was nothing!!!

Gu Mingxin clenched her teeth. She could not afford any failure. This time, she would definitely snatch Ye Anping away and let the white-haired girl who was her opposite experience her bitter state in all these years.

Suddenly, an eagle's cry resounded in the night sky.

Kyiiaaa--!!

Fu Yuanhua, who was lecturing He Jiming, looked up and saw a black shadow hovering above her. She immediately raised her hand and let the black shadow land on her protective sleeve.

She removed the jade slip from the eagle's claw, infused it with her spiritual sense, and read it.

"Ghost Patriarch has arrived at the Netherworld Mountains. Let's head over there immediately."

He Jiming and Gu Mingxin did not say anything. They nodded and then turned into three beams of bloody light, shooting through the sky. They turned around and headed toward the valley where the black clouds were located about five hundred miles to the east...

...

The night was still, and the moon flowed with the clouds.

Thunderbolt---

A dark purple snake stretched out across the black clouds, reflecting the shadows of dozens of people in a huge hall on a large sand table.

With a ghost mask on his face, Seven Ghost Tomb sat on a square chair forged from dragon bones, facing the north direction as he propped his face with his fists and scanned the dozens of Ghost Spirit Sect Elders with his faint purple eyes.

The hall was silent, except for a few rhythmic tapping sounds.

All of a sudden, Seven Ghost Tomb's fingers, which were tapping the armrest of the chair, stopped.

The next moment, the iron door of the great hall opened.

Fu Yuanhua and her two companions, wearing the Heavenly Demon Sect's robes, strode in, and cupped their hands in salute.

"Elder Fu Yuanhua and two disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect pay their respects to the Ghost Patriarch."

Seven Ghost Tomb's lips moved slightly, and he responded with a muffled sound that resembled ventriloquism. "Hmm..."

His eyes swept up and down Gu Mingxin's body, only staying for a moment, and then he raised his right hand slightly, giving a signal.

A Deification-stage Elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect stepped forward. "According to our information, the Justice Division is preparing to abandon the Eastern Wall cities and escape. Fu Xuan began to gather the immortal cultivators in the three cities yesterday. It seems that they are preparing to split into four groups and escape through the Sword Gate Pass in the south of the Central Region."

At this point, he waved his hand, and the sand table, which had originally only outlined hills and terrain, immediately showed four gullies.

When the Ghost Spirit Sect members heard this, suddenly there was an uproar.

"Fleeing without a fight? That's not in the nature of those Justice Division people..."

"Yes, and the attack of the Ghost Spirit Sect on the Eastern Wall was a tight secret. The Division should not have known so early that the entire ***Ghost Spirit ***Sect was dispatched. Did someone leak the news?"

...

In fact, the Ghost Spirit Sect had been hiding their whereabouts the entire time. As usual, they had sent some low-level disciples to harass the surroundings of the Eastern Great Wall. Their goal was to make the Justice Division think that the demonic cultivators were just like usual, a lot of thunder and little rain.

Logically speaking, the Justice Division would have no way of knowing that the Ghost Spirit Sect was going to attack, so they had no reason to abandon the city and flee so decisively.

As people spoke, they could not help but glance in Gu Mingxin's direction, seeming to suspect that she was the one who had secretly contacted immortal cultivators and exposed Ghost Spirit Sect's plans.

Faced with the scrutiny of these Deification and Nascent Soul stage old monsters, even the fearless Gu Mingxin could not help but sweat.

Fortunately, Xue'e slipped out, distracting her attention from these old monsters of the Ghost Spirit Sect, and she relaxed a little.

"Mingxin, look at me, look at me~~ ignore them~~"

"..."

Seven Ghost Tomb, sitting on the bone chair, tapped his fingers again, the sound shutting up the Elders.

The Deification-stage cultivator who had spoken earlier stretched out his hand and said, "No matter what, it's a good thing that the Justice Division is fleeing. The three cities of the Eastern Great Wall can be said to have fallen into the hands of our Ghost Spirit Sect. However, we Elders also know that what the Patriarch wants is not only the three cities of the Eastern Wall but also the Commander of the Justice Division, Fu Xuan. The whereabouts of the Dragon Heavenly Seal are unknown. The only person who knows where the Heavenly Seal is is probably the Justice Division Commander."

At this, the Deification-stage demonic cultivator pointed at a long groove in the sand table. "According to their plan, Fu Xuan will lead the cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage and flee to Heavenly Gate City on this road. In the past, when Elder Xu was here, it was not easy for demonic cultivators to enter the Demon Clan territory, so... they must be stopped before reaching the city."

One of the Elders asked, "Is there any movement from the Demon Clan?"

"No, everything in Heavenly Gate City is the same as usual. Last time, someone tried to sow discord between us and the Demon Clan, but it seemed that the provocation was not successful. At least there's no sign of their soldiers leaving the city."

Another person also said, "They are divided into four groups. Won't we stop the remaining three groups?"

"Of course." The demonic cultivator shook his head and smiled. "That Fu Xuan seems to want to protect her people. The other three routes are divided by cultivation level. One route for Qi Refining cultivators, one route for Foundation Building cultivators, one for Core Formation stage cultivators... Ghost Spirit Sect won't let them return to the Southern Region undisturbed."

Gu Mingxin didn't want to speak, but after hearing what that person said, she couldn't help asking, "May I ask where this news came from?"

"..."

For a moment, the hall fell silent, and all the Ghost Spirit Sect Elders were looking toward her again.

Fu Yuanhua felt the pressure and glanced at her as if saying, 'Don't speak. Your current position is not suitable...'

But the next moment, Seven Ghost Tomb raised his hand to indicate that it was okay and motioned the demonic cultivator to answer her.

"Young Miss Gu, I got this news from a cultivator from the Justice Division."

"Could it be fake news?"

"Then, Miss Gu knows the real news? Please speak."

"..."

Gu Mingxin was speechless. No one present seemed to think so, but she felt that Ye Anping would expect this, as such getting people to deliberately spread false news to delay the pursuit of the demonic cultivators.

If it was Ye Anping, he would definitely think of the possibility of information leakage, and make secondary preparations.
