Chapter 2055: I Will Protect You For As Long As I Live Chapter 2055: I Will Protect You For As Long As I Live Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation “Ye Chen, do you think I’ll become powerful enough to protect you and my sister one day?” “Although I’ve always called you names, in my heart, you’re someone I can rely on.” “Since I was young, I’ve had no friends other than my sister. However, during those five years in the Kunlun Mountains, I really treated you as a friend.” “Ye Chen, Huaxia’s snacks are so delicious. I wonder when I’ll be able to eat them again…” “Ye Chen, if I die one day, I hope you can bury me in Huaxia. I want my grave to be filled with flowers. I don’t have much ability. I just want to be a supporting character like those on TV and always watch over you and my sister…” Hearing this, Ye Chen stopped in his tracks. He took a deep look at Ji Lin in his arms and realized that Ji Lin was hugging him tightly. Her body was trembling, and she seemed to be having a nightmare. Her eyelashes were covered in tears, and a long trail of tears appeared on her cheek. For some reason, when Ye Chen heard Ji Lin’s last sentence, he could not take it. The line of defense in his heart was broken. Ji Lin was still a child. What she had experienced was not something a child should experience. Pain, torture, helplessness, and sorrow had been happening every day since Ji Lin stepped into the Lingwu Continent. A child who did not know life and death actually hoped that her grave would be filled with flowers. What kind of despair did that represent? Ye Chen did not know how Ji Lin had spent the days and nights trapped by the Soul Race, and he did not know what kind of pain Ye Luo was going through. For the first time, he felt that he was useless. He wanted to become stronger. This was because a child with an Innate Poison Body was destined to never be able to live a peaceful life. Was this sadness or joy? Ye Chen reached out to touch Ji Lin. His gaze was gentle and firm. “Ji Lin, I promise you that I will protect you for as long as I live.” “As long as I’m alive, even the heavens can’t touch you.” The gate then closed completely, and the dazzling light bore witness to Ye Chen’s lifelong promise. He would use his blood to protect those he cared about. … The next day. Ji Lin opened her eyes with difficulty. When she saw everything around her unfamiliar, her eyes widened. “Didn’t I sleep on a rock? Where is this?” Suddenly, Ji Lin saw Ye Chen sprawled beside her. At this moment, Ye Chen’s hand was still holding hers. It was very warm. Ji Lin secretly smiled, revealing her dimples. However, she quickly put on a serious expression and coughed. “Ye Chen, wake up. Did you wash your hands yesterday? It stinks.” Ye Chen opened his eyes and saw Ji Lin. He rubbed her head. “I’ll go wash up now, okay?” Ye Chen had just turned around when Ji Lin suddenly thought of something and shouted, “Ye Chen, there’s something I haven’t told you. Something happened to Sister Luo!”  “She was taken away by a force called the Linghu family.” “I came to find you because I hope that you can come with me to save Sister Luo.” “I know.” Ye Chen stopped in his tracks, his expression grave. He had seen the Linghu family while he was in the Western Region. They were not very strong, so they were probably just puppets. Right now, he just had to find Ye Luo’s whereabouts. “How did you find out? Since you know, why are you still standing there? Let’s set off immediately,” Ji Lin said anxiously. Ye Chen grabbed Ji Lin and said, “Little Luo used a technique to give me some information. She seems to be bound by chains. As for where she is, I don’t know at all.” “If we don’t receive any detailed information from her soon, we’ll go and pay a visit to the Linghu Family!” “I want to see who dared to touch Little Luo!” There was a reason why Ye Chen did not move immediately. If he left today’s banquet, then the Wang family’s anger would be borne by the Divine Fire Academy and the Chu family. This would be his fault, as it was his burden to bear. Ye Luo was only trapped now, and her life was not in danger. After dealing with the matters here, he would immediately set off. At this moment, Ge Qing’s voice rang out from outside the door. “Ye Chen, are you awake?” Ye Chen opened the door and saw Ge Qing standing outside with a bitter smile. “Please come in, Principal,” Ye Chen stepped aside and said. Ge Qing walked into Ye Chen’s room. When he saw Ji Lin, he was stunned. “Ye Chen, how did this child come here?” “The Nine Remoteness Kingdom does not allow outsiders to enter. This child’s aura is clearly not from the Nine Remoteness Kingdom…” “Director, she’s my sister. I have to bring her around with me. There shouldn’t be any problems with the banquet, right?” “It’s best not to bring her along. Otherwise, there’ll be trouble.” Ge Qing frowned. However, Ye Chen had already made up his mind. He said directly, “Principal, I am going to protect her for the rest of her life. She must be brought along.” Ge Qing was rather helpless about this, and did not pursue the matter. Instead, he said, “Ye Chen, why did you kill Wu Yang?”  “That old b*stard Chen Bei from the Divine Wind Academy is going crazy from anger!” Even Chen Bei would not be able to explain the loss of such a genius. “He wanted to kill me, so naturally I decided to kill him,” Ye Chen said calmly. Ge Qing nodded and did not say anything else. Ye Chen was someone he had brought here after all. He would help Ye Chen resolve Wu Yang’s matter. Otherwise, if a student of the academy was held accountable for self-defense, what was the point of him being the principal? “Ye Chen, I’m here to see you about today’s birthday celebration,” he suddenly said sternly to Ye Chen. “Oh?” Ye Chen’s eyes lit up. “Please speak, Principal.”  “Although we old fellows have brought you all here for this birthday banquet and will be celebrating the birthday as well, we will not be in the same venue as you,” Ge Qing said. “After all, the royal family member of Nine Remoteness Kingdom being celebrated is the ninth daughter of the current Nine Remoteness Emperor. She is a junior.” “The people of Nine Remoteness Kingdom call her the Ninth Princess. Many members of the younger generation won’t be able to act normally during the birthday banquet if we old fellows are present. Although that’s what they say, actually…” “Actually, they don’t want the elders to interfere in this birthday banquet?” Ye Chen continued. Ge Qing nodded and said, “That’s right. This is an unwritten rule. If there’s any conflict at the birthday banquet, the juniors have to resolve it themselves. However, there’s another rule. Ordinary existences above the early stage of the Sealed Gate realm will not provoke existences below the Sealed Gate realm. The same applies during sparring.” Ye Chen nodded. If it was an ordinary Sealed Gate realm expert, he would not be afraid. However, those who attended the birthday banquet were all top talents and peerless geniuses of the Lingwu Continent. The Sealed Gate realm experts that attended were definitely on a completely different level from ordinary Sealed Gate realm experts. Ge Qing continued, “I’ll help you handle the Divine Wind Academy’s side. However, you can only rely on yourself at this birthday banquet.” “The Divine Wind Academy’s Liu Baizhan, who’s close to the Sealed Gate realm, is probably no match for you. Without a Sealed Gate realm expert, they shouldn’t be able to do anything to you.” “However, I received a piece of news. The Divine Wind Academy seems to have some connection with the Divine Imperial Academy for some reason. This time, the geniuses of the Divine Imperial Academy might target you, so you must be careful.”
