"Heavens! Did I hear that right? Who on earth gave Ye Chen the courage to say such things?"
"He's gone mad, this guy is absolutely insane. He actually thinks that by killing Huang Long, he's invincible. He simply doesn't understand how terrifying Ye Fei's strength truly is." The crowd of cultivators gasped, looking at Ye Chen as if he were a lunatic.
"Hmph! This useless fool has zero self-awareness, daring to challenge Ye Fei. Never mind Ye Fei, even the four guardians under Ye Fei's command are beyond his ability to confront." Fairy Hong Yun couldn't help but sneer, her mouth curling into a mocking smirk.
Indeed!
She admitted that Ye Chen's strength was very powerful, entirely surpassing her own.
However, there's always soone stronger.
Within these ancient ruins, powerful figures are as common as clouds, many surpassing Ye Chen.
Take Ye Fei's four great guardians, for instance. Any one of them could easily crush Ye Chen.
Yet Ye Chen lacked even this basic self-awareness, which was truly pathetic.
"Elder Wang, I will always rember how you've helped . However, I'm worried Ye Fei will give you trouble, so you'd best stay in Wind Shelter City and not wander." Ye Chen couldn't help but advise Wang Sheng and his group.
Wang Sheng and his companions, knowing they had already offended Huang Long, still took a huge risk to help him.
This truly made Ye Chen very grateful.
Thus, he naturally didn't want them to be implicated because of him.
"Hmph! What's there to fear? At worst, it's just death. We don't have much longer to live anyway."
"Those with nothing to lose have no fear; if they dare provoke us, even in death, we'll make them pay dearly." The long-browed zhenren and his companions spoke fearlessly.
"Ye Chen, my young friend, this little girl is actually a spirit beast in essence. Even if she hides in Wind Shelter City, others have reasons to kill her, so it's best you keep her by your side to protect her," Wang Sheng suggested.
"Mm! That was my intention." Ye Chen nodded slightly, a gentle smile appearing at the corners of his mouth as he softly asked the little girl, "Would you like to co with ?"
"Yes, of course, I would!" The little girl hurriedly replied, as if afraid Ye Chen would leave her behind.
Originally, she had a degree of wariness toward Ye Chen.
After all, it was her first ti eting Ye Chen, so naturally, she couldn't fully trust him.
But now, Ye Chen had forcefully slain Huang Long and Liu Chen's group to save her.
If she still didn't trust him, it would be unreasonable.
"Everyone, take care." Ye Chen cupped his hands toward Wang Sheng and his group.
Whoosh!
With that, he took the little girl and flew rapidly toward the distant sky, soon disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Sigh! Young friend Ye Chen, this ti, he's likely facing grave danger. I hope he doesn't get caught by Ye Fei's n." Wang Sheng couldn't help but sigh.
Ye Fei has four great guardians, each stronger than Huang Long.
The most powerful of the guardians is rumored to have cultivation that has reached the Ninth Layer of the Profound Pill Realm, possessing terrifying battle prowess.
If Ye Chen encounters them, there's definitely little hope.
"What to do? Junior Brother Ye Chen has already been expelled from Wind Shelter City, and he can never set foot here again! Even the other cities will absolutely not harbor him! If Ye Fei truly sends assassins after him, he has nowhere to hide." Fairy Ming Yue bit her lips tightly with imnse worry.
"Junior Sister Ming Yue, this is self-inflicted, he has no one to bla. You better sever ties with him completely; otherwise, you'll just get dragged into his troubles." Situ Qing furrowed his brows, speaking with a heavy tone.
Fairy Ming Yue, though the granddaughter of Venerable Qingfeng...
But in the eyes of soone as lofty as Ye Fei, she's nothing.
If he wanted Fairy Ming Yue dead, it would be as easy as turning a hand.
So if Fairy Ming Yue gets too close to Ye Chen, she surely won't et a good end.
"Miss Lan Ling, from now on, you should also stop involving yourself in Ye Chen's affairs. Otherwise, even I might not be able to protect you." At that mont, an old woman beside Fairy Lan Ling advised.
Even she felt imnsely apprehensive about Ye Fei.
"Alright, Granny Jin, I'll listen to all your advice." Miss Lan Ling nodded, a bitter smile on her lips.
If she could, she really wished to help Ye Chen.
Sadly, she simply didn't have the ability.
After all, the people Ye Chen offended had such powerful backgrounds that she couldn't provoke them.
"Ha! Ye Chen, Ye Chen, you don't have much ti left. You'd better cherish the days you have left! This ti, no one can save you." Fairy Hong Yun couldn't help but sneer, with a schadenfreude expression, as if she could already see Ye Chen being crushed by Ye Fei's subordinates.
...
"Little girl, what is your na?" Not long after, hovering above a vast mountain range, Ye Chen couldn't help but ask the little girl.
"Big brother, my na is Xiao Bai, and I'm a Profound Celestial Spirit Crane." The little girl grinned widely, her smile as bright as a blooming lily.
"Xiao Bai, why is your master inside these ancient ruins?" Ye Chen gently patted Xiao Bai's head, his expression incredibly urgent.
He had already guessed that Xiao Bai's master must be his sister, Ye Xi.
Thus, he was extrely eager to learn all he could about his sister from Xiao Bai.
"Sob, sob! Big brother, my master was hunted down and had no choice but to hide in these ancient ruins." Xiao Bai's eyes suddenly reddened, tears brimming, evoking imnse sympathy.
"Hunted? Could it be the Ye Clan?" Ye Chen's body trembled violently, furious flas flaring in his eyes, even his fists clenched tightly, producing a screeching sound.
He couldn't fathom who else besides the Ye Clan would hunt his sister.
"It was the Ye Clan and the Ji Race; they destroyed the entire Yuan Family to capture the master. If it weren't for our ancestor, who desperately sent the master away, she definitely would have fallen into those brutes' hands!" Xiao Bai's eyes turned blood-red, her teeth clenched tightly, seemingly about to shatter.
"What? Even the Ji Race has acted against my sister! Ji Ling'Er, you caused my mother's death and it's still not enough—now you're even targeting my sister! I swear, one day, I will make you pay with blood for blood." Ye Chen's pupils contracted suddenly, his facial features contorting, looking exceptionally grim.
At this mont, he was truly enraged.
Years ago, the secret of his mother's On Bloodline was revealed by her most trusted confidante, Ji Ling'Er.
If it weren't for Ji Ling'Er, his mother wouldn't have been hunted down by the Ye Clan's experts.
So, Ji Ling'Er is definitely one of the people Ye Chen most wants to kill.
And now, this viper extends her claws toward Ye Chen's sister—simply unforgivable.
At this mont, Ye Chen desperately yearned for imnse power, to imdiately tear Ji Ling'Er to pieces.
