Xiaobai was Ye Xi's Spirit Beast, and had accompanied Ye Xi growing up since she was little.
And Xiaobai's grandfather had even been captured by Ye Fei's subordinates in order to save Ye Xi, and in the end died a miserable death at their hands.
So Ye Xi truly felt she owed Xiaobai a lot.
She absolutely could not let anyone hurt Xiaobai ever again.
Only by bringing Xiaobai back to her side could he be at ease.
"All right. With Xiaobai together with Zitong, there shouldn't be any danger, but let's still go and bring her back!" Ye Chen nodded and said.
Right now, everyone who'd wanted to harm Shangguan Zitong had already been killed by Ye Chen.
In this Ancient Ruins, there shouldn't be anyone left who would dare cause trouble for Shangguan Zitong.
After all, Shangguan Zitong was a Core Disciple of Ziwei Sacred Landâso long as they weren't idiots, no one would provoke her.
"Brother, who is this Zitong you're talking about?" Ye Xi asked curiously.
When she was one or two years old, she had met Shangguan Zitong, but she didn't remember any of that.
She also didn't know that Shangguan Zitong was Ye Chen's betrothed fiancée from the womb.
"Xiao Xi, you really don't remember Zitong. When she was little she even held you in her arms!" Ye Chen said with a faint smile.
Next, Ye Chen told Ye Xi about Shangguan Zitong's identity.
"So I already have a sister-in-law. I really want to see what sister-in-law looks like!" Ye Xi said with a giggle.
"Let's go." Ye Chen didn't continue to dwell on this topic, but instead took Ye Xi and left the Golden Sect Treasure Vault.
Although he was Shangguan Zitong's fiancé, the two of them hadn't officially married yet.
So whether Shangguan Zitong would really become his other half was still far from certain.
Very quickly, Ye Chen took out the Communication Crystal Stone and began to contact Zhu'er.
"Young Master, Xiaobai and I are in the Wind Shelter City to the east right now. In order to prevent anyone from still trying to harm her, my lady separated from us and went to another Wind Shelter City." Not long after, Ye Chen received Zhu'er's reply.
It turned out that after Ye Chen and Shangguan Zitong parted ways, Shangguan Zitong had gone alone to the southern Wind Shelter City to go into seclusion for Cultivation.
Meanwhile, Zhu'er and Xiaobai stayed in the eastern Wind Shelter City.
That way, even if someone really still wanted to harm Shangguan Zitong, Xiaobai wouldn't be dragged into it.
Xiaobai had been entrusted to Shangguan Zitong by Ye Chen; she absolutely could not allow anything to happen to Xiaobai.
"We'll go pick up Xiaobai now." Ye Chen said with a faint smile.
The next moment, he took Ye Xi and sped off toward the Wind Shelter City in the east.
The experts of the Human King Hall had built a total of four Wind Shelter Cities within this Ancient Ruins, and in each Wind Shelter City there was an expert of the Human King Hall personally sitting in town.
Therefore, hiding in a Wind Shelter City was extremely safe; almost no one dared to cause trouble inside a Wind Shelter City.
Whoosh!
Half an hour after Ye Chen and the others left, a man in red armor suddenly appeared in the sky above the Golden Sect Treasure Vault.
This man was none other than Lin Tong and the others' second brother, Chi Feng.
"Damn it, damn it all, that dog Ye Chen actually escaped." Chi Feng gnashed his teeth, flames of fury blazing in his eyes.
He had rushed to the Golden Sect ruins at the fastest possible speed, yet he was still a step too late.
"You dog, you're dead. No matter where you run, no one can save you. Even if you hide in a Wind Shelter City, I'll still tear you to pieces." Chi Feng said, his expression incomparably ferocious.
In his view, the place Ye Chen was most likely to go was a Wind Shelter City.
Because in a Wind Shelter City, experts of the Human King Hall were stationed, and no one dared make a move inside.
However, while others might fear the experts of the Human King Hall, Chi Feng was not afraid in the slightest.
If the experts of the Human King Hall dared shelter Ye Chen, he would suppress them along with him.
"I heard that this dog also has a fiancée. As long as I crush his fiancée to death, I don't believe he still won't show himself." In the depths of Chi Feng's eyes, a terrifying killing intent shot out, making one's Soul involuntarily tremble.
Whoosh!
The next moment, his body vanished from where he stood, as if turning into a streak of scarlet lightning, flying toward the Wind Shelter City to the south.
That Wind Shelter City was the one closest to the Golden Sect ruins; Ye Chen was very likely hiding inside.
Even if Ye Chen wasn't hiding there, he could still force others to reveal Shangguan Zitong's whereabouts.
Time flew by.
An hour later, Ye Chen arrived at the eastern Wind Shelter City.
Although last time he had killed people in the Wind Shelter City and had been put on a blacklist by the experts of the Human King Hall, forbidden from stepping into the Wind Shelter City againâŠ
After he killed Bai Feng and Jia Xiong, that blacklist had been removed.
After all, even the experts of the Human King Hall wanted to recruit him into the Human King Hall, so of course they wouldn't mind him killing people in the Wind Shelter City.
"Master, it's so great that you're fine. These days, Xiaobai has really been worried about you." Inside a palace in the Wind Shelter City, a whiteâclothed young girl who looked exactly the same as Ye Xi said, incomparably excited and overjoyed.
This girl was none other than Xiaobai.
Her eyes were brimming with tears as she threw herself at Ye Xi, tightly hugging her.
"Xiaobai, I'm sorry, I've made you suffer." Ye Xi's eyes were filled with deep guilt.
Every time she thought of how Xiaobai's grandfather had died luring away the enemy for her, her heart was filled with selfâreproach.
"As long as Master is fine, what's a little suffering?" Xiaobai shook her head and said.
"Young Master, you actually killed Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan, and even rescued your younger sister from Bai Feng and Jia Xiong. Just how powerful have you become now?" Zhu'er couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
When she first heard from others that Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan had died at Ye Chen's hands, she simply couldn't believe her ears.
What made it even harder for her to believe was that even the two Outer Realm visitors who were stronger than Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan had been slain by Ye Chen.
How could Ye Chen's strength have increased so many times over in just half a year?
Now, let alone herâeven her lady, Shangguan Zitong, had long since been left far behind by Ye Chen.
"I'm still not strong enough. Only by continuing to grow stronger can I avenge my parents' blood debt." Ye Chen's fists couldn't help clenching tightly, letting out a sharp crackling sound.
Right now, although he already had the strength to contend with some Venerable Golden Cores, he was still far from being able to avenge his parents.
After all, the experts who besieged his parents back then were basically all Nascent Soul Realm existences who had already grasped the Law.
For Ye Chen to defeat them was harder than ascending to the heavens.
