”No!” For the sake of the Old Ancestor, for the sake of the Ye Family, I, Ye Ling, will definitely not let this brat fall into the hands of other forces! Moreover, in a month's time, the Immortal Sect's Great Assembly will be held. With this brat, our Ye Clan will definitely shine, and our strength will greatly increase. From today onwards, no one will dare to underestimate us! ”

Ye Ling quickly came to her senses. A genius like him must not be abandoned by the Ye Family. He absolutely must not support other forces.

The Ye Family couldn't afford to lose such a person!

Ye Zhen put away his Silver Dragon Sword and quickly walked in front of the horse to help untie Miao Miao. He smiled and said, ”It's bundled up like a dumpling, and it's also a tearful dumpling.”

The moment Miao Miao landed, she threw herself into his arms and cried out, ”Young master!” You're finally back! They all said that you're dead, but only Miao Miao believes that you're not going to die, wuu … ”Miao Miao is so scared …

Ye Zhen caressed her head as a hint of pity appeared in his eyes. He consoled her, ”Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Didn't I return? In the future, if anyone dares to bully you again, Young Master will let them meet the King of Hell!”

As she said this, she raised her head and looked at Ye Ling, who was deep in thought.

Ye Ling was startled. ”Why are you looking at me? I'm not bullying your Miao Miao. If it wasn't for me, hehe, you wouldn't be seeing her anymore.”

Miao Miao immediately nodded. ”Yes, young master. It was Miss Ling'er who saved me. I was captured by those bad people long ago. Miss Ling'er has been protecting me all this time.”

Ye Zhen looked at the young girl and said, ”Alright, Ye Ling, thank you so much for this. Consider that I, Ye Zhen, owe you a favor.”

As he said this, he raised his head to look at the sky. The sun had set and the curtain of night had quietly descended.

”Alright, it's getting late. Let's go back to our own homes.”

Ye Zhen took Miao Miao's hand and turned around to leave.

Ye Ling immediately became anxious and chased after him, ”Ye Zhen, your family is in the Ye family, where are you going?”

”Ye Family?”

When Ye Zhen heard this, he turned his head and looked at her like he was looking at an idiot, ”Your head isn't stuck in a trap, right? I was driven out of the Ye Family by Ye Wuji, I'm no longer a member of the Ye Family, you only now know?”

Ye Ling let out a hollow laugh. Feeling embarrassed, she stuttered: ”It's like this, I …” On behalf of the Old Ancestor, I will take back the fifth uncle's decision. That is to say, the executive elder's decision from last time cannot be counted. ”Let's go, Ye Zhen. There are dangers everywhere outside. Only in our family will you and Miao Miao be safe. From today onwards, we will treat you as family.”

Ye Zhen looked at her strangely, he touched her forehead and said: ”Ye Ling, you have a fever? What right do you have to represent the Old Ancestor? What's more, when I was kicked out of the Ye Family by Ye Wuji, other than you, did you see any other member of the Ye Family speaking up for me? Hmph, I, Ye Zhen, do not care about such a cold and heartless family! Even if the Old Ancestor retracts his decision, I will never go back! ”

Ye Ling's heart sank when she heard this. She frowned and said, ”Ye Zhen, don't be like this, the executive elder has such a temper. When the Old Ancestor comes out, I will ask the Old Ancestor to punish him. What do you think?”

Miao Miao, who was beside them, immediately pouted and said, ”Miss Ling'er, Miao Miao doesn't want to go back either.” ”Young master, you don't know, today, the Executing Elder brought some people to sell Miao Miao. Miss Ling'er came forward to protect me, and the Executing Elder was even prepared to make a move. How hateful.”

A cold light flashed in Ye Zhen's eyes as he held her hand and said, ”Don't worry, I won't go back as long as I don't eat grass. Since he chased me away, I naturally won't go back. Even if we were to really go back, we will do as I said before, tread on his face, and make him beg me to go back! ”

Ye Ling said angrily, ”Whether he is an executive elder or your father's elder brother, he is your elder. Even if he is in the wrong, you can't be like this.”

Ye Zhen sneered and said: ”Since the day he kicked me out of the Ye Family, I have no relationship with him. Ye Ling, thank you for your good intentions, but I also said very clearly, I can't go back. Goodbye, or maybe, I'll never see you again!”

With that, he pulled Miao Miao along and left decisively.

”Ye Zhen!”

Ye Ling stomped her feet in anger, thought for a moment, and still chased after him.

Ye Zhen led Miao Miao all the way back to the Black Evil Mountain Range. They travelled through the dense and dangerous forest without the slightest sign of fear.
