"Damn it, I'm so weak right now, knowing Ji Ling'Er killed my mother and harmed my sister, yet I can't avenge them! I need to get stronger, I must hurry and become strong," Ye Chen gritted his teeth and said.
Ji Ling'Er, like his parents, is an exceptionally rare prodigy in the Southern Heaven Domain.
Years ago, her power was already terrifyingly immense.
Now, after so many years, she has undoubtedly become even more powerful.
With Ye Chen's current strength, not to mention seeking revenge, he doesn't even have the slightest ability to fight back in front of her.
Therefore, if he doesn't hurry and become strong, not only will he fail to avenge his family, but he could be crushed like a bug by the stronger members of the Ye Clan and Ji Race at any moment.
"Big Brother, why do you care so much about my master? What's your relationship with my master?" Little White cautiously asked Ye Chen.
Her master has a very mysterious background and was fostered in the Yuan Family since childhood.
Throughout the Yuan Family, very few people truly knew her identity.
Even Little White only learned that her master came from the Ye Clan after the Yuan Family was destroyed, realizing she was a Direct Descendant of the Ye Clan.
And Ye Chen, like her master, bears the Ye surname and cares deeply about her master.
It's clear to anyone smart enough that their relationship is not simple.
"Little White, to be honest, I am your master's actual brother," Ye Chen smiled slightly.
At this point, there's no need to hide his identity from Little White any longer.
Only by revealing his true identity to Little White could she possibly help him find his sister Ye Xi.
"What? You're my master's real brother!" Little White's small frame trembled violently, her eyes filled with disbelief.
She knew her master came from the Ye Clan but was unaware she had a brother.
No wonder Ye Chen was willing to offend Ye Fei to save her.
"It seems you don't know much about my sister's background either. My sister has been completely separated from me since she was two, and even I don't know where she's gone! If it weren't for Ye Fei sending people to hunt for my sister, I wouldn't even know she was here," Ye Chen couldn't help but lament.
"Big Brother, I believe you! Unfortunately, even I don't know where my master is hiding, or I'd take you to her right now," Little White sighed, her dark eyes filled with deep worry.
She revealed to Ye Chen that both she and her grandfather were Spirit Beasts kept by the Yuan Family, tied by a soul contract with Ye Chen's sister.
Should they betray Ye Chen's sister, they would immediately face destruction of their soul and body.
Precisely for this reason, the Yuan Family elder entrusted Ye Chen's sister to them with confidence.
Later, to avoid pursuit from the Ye Clan and Ji Race's stronger members, Ye Chen's sister was forced to escape into the Ancient Ruins.
Because entry into this Ancient Ruins is forbidden to Golden Core Realm cultivators, they have a better chance of survival here than outside.
An additional crucial reason is that the Yuan Family elder is a descendant of a Saint Son from the Five Elements Immortal Sect in Ancient Times, and he possesses Five Elements Orders left by the sect.
These Five Elements Orders have now all fallen into the hands of Ye Chen's sister.
If she can utilize these Five Elements Orders effectively, perhaps she could harness the power of the Ancient Ruins to protect herself.
However, reality is often cruel.
Not long after entering the Ancient Ruins, Ye Chen's sister's location was discovered by Huang Long and Liu Chen.
If not for Little White changing into her master's form and luring Huang Long away, Ye Chen's sister might already have fallen into Huang Hu's hands.
"Little White, thank you for all you've done for my sister. I promise to repay you well someday," Ye Chen said gratefully, patting Little White's head.
Little White's grandfather was cruelly killed by Huang Long while rescuing his sister.
Thus, Ye Chen truly feels indebted to Little White.
"Big Brother, saving my master is the most natural thing I could do. If she dies, I cannot live alone either," Little White pursed her lips tightly, speaking with unwavering determination.
"Little White, rest assured, I will protect your master from now on. Anyone who dares to harm my sister must die," Ye Chen said coldly, his eyes gleaming with frightening chills.
His sister is one of the few relatives he has left in this world.
Though many years have passed without seeing her, he still values her more than himself.
His sister is his reverse scale.
Anyone who dares touch her will face merciless death.
"Big Brother, besides Ye Fei, there are also strong members from the Ji Race pursuing my master. You must be cautious with them!" Little White said with grave concern.
As she knows, the Ji Race is also one of the nine Divine Spirit Families in the Southern Heaven Domain, not weaker in foundation than the Ye Clan.
Thus, the Ji Race has countless strong members and geniuses, with many surpassing Huang Long in power.
If they also target Ye Chen, the consequences will be dire.
"Hmph! If they don't come seeking trouble, they can live a bit longer! If they do, I will crush them altogether," Ye Chen said fiercely, a terrifying killing intent surging within him.
From the moment Ji Family's strong members began pursuing his sister, Ye Chen had already sentenced them to death.
Even if they don't seek trouble with Ye Chen, he will personally 'settle accounts' with them.
Such is the cost of touching his sister.
For his closest kin, he is willing to stand against the entire world without hesitation!
"Master, having such a brother makes you truly blessed," Little White thought warmly, her eyes filled with deep consolation.
She feels genuinely happy for her master to have a brother like Ye Chen.
"Little White, I plan to visit the area near the Fire Sect Ruins. From now on, stay by my side. With me around, I guarantee no harm will come to you," Ye Chen said softly.
Though he is very worried about his sister's safety, the Ancient Ruins' territory is vast. Searching for his sister without a clue is like searching for a needle in the ocean.
Instead, he should first find a way to improve his strength.
Otherwise, even if he finds his sister, he'll have nothing to protect her with.
Within these Ancient Ruins, he is confident he can fend off any strong attacker.
However, once outside the Ancient Ruins, what then?
So, enhancing strength is paramount.
