"If I hadn't taken you in, you would have died without a burial place. Besides, you chose this path yourself. Why don't you just work for me?"

"Don't even think about going back to the Dragon and Tiger Palace. Give up on this idea as soon as possible!" Shiji warned them sternly.

The warriors remained silent, but it was clear that they had no intention of completely obeying.

In this way, they continued on their way. Suddenly, a group of robbers jumped out from the roadside and tried to rob them.

The leading robber shouted, "Robbery! Hand over all your money!"

Shiji snorted coldly and said to them with a smile: "Robber me? Are you sure?"

As he spoke, Shiji started a fierce battle with the gang of robbers, while the warriors on the side just watched and did not help.

This made Shiji very angry. He didn't expect these warriors to be so unreasonable at the critical moment. He no longer showed mercy and let the pigeon elf fly back to the space ring to avoid injury. Then he used his true energy to subdue all the robbers in one wave.

This little incident was quickly resolved by Shiji, as a few robbers were just a piece of cake for him. But Shiji's face was very gloomy, he turned around and glared at the warriors behind him.

The warriors knew that their actions had angered Shiji, so they lowered their heads guiltily, not daring to look him in the eye.

Shi Ji snorted coldly and said, "At this point, don't you know who you should be loyal to? Resisting to the end will only be futile. Wouldn't it be better to go back and die? If you really want to go back, why did you choose to follow me to deliver the mine?"

"Look at yourselves, you are just a bunch of cowards. Why are you pretending to be so brave in front of me? Who else will watch your performance except me?"

"Besides, if you were truly strong, you wouldn't have ended up like this..."

"I don't want it to happen again. Since you have chosen to follow me, you must act like a follower. Now, I am your master."

"If you can sincerely serve me, I will treat you well. I can guarantee that you will not die. Think about your wives and children. You should be able to settle this account, right?"

After Shiji finished speaking, the warriors stopped talking. Most of them had families and hoped to be reunited with their loved ones alive.

They have seen Shiji's strengths and weaknesses, and they know they are no match for him. Going back is a dead end, but staying here might give them a glimmer of hope...

At this moment, a warrior suddenly burst into laughter. He spat and said to Shiji: "Bah! Hypocritical! It sounds good! Who knows if you will really do it in the future!"

"I am the confidant of the Dragon and Tiger Palace! They have cultivated me for so many years, not for me to betray them in the future! I have sworn an oath to the Dragon and Tiger Palace long ago. I am a member of the Dragon and Tiger Palace in life and a ghost of the Dragon and Tiger Palace in death! No one can stop me from being loyal to the Dragon and Tiger Palace! I will never be able to repay the Dragon and Tiger Palace for its kindness in my lifetime!"

As the samurai spoke, he squeezed in front of the other samurai.

He turned around and said to the group of warriors, "Think about how the palace treats us! How can we be the kind of people who bully the weak and fear the strong! Dear warriors, no matter how strong Shiji is, he is just alone!
We are all elite soldiers of the Dragon and Tiger Palace. As long as we work together, can't we defeat him alone? "After hearing this, the warriors looked at each other and hesitated.

"This...this..." The warriors did not dare to express their opinions easily. They knew that anything they said at this time might cause trouble.

The warrior standing in the front looked at the cowardly appearance of this group of people, frowned, stomped his feet, and a surge of momentum surged out.

"You...you are a bunch of cowards! As timid as mice! He is just a Shiji, watch me chop off his head!" As he said that, the warrior turned his head and stared at Shiji.

"Give me your life!" He roared, jumped into the air, and rushed straight towards Shiji, stabbing Shiji fiercely with the halberd in his hand.

The expression of watching a show on Shiji's face had not yet faded. He looked up at the warrior who was rushing towards him as if he was looking at a pile of garbage.

He didn't rush to dodge, but just slightly turned his body to avoid the fatal blow.

"Bang--" The halberd was inserted straight into the ground. Shiji took advantage of the situation and used the force, but the halberd broke unexpectedly.

The warrior looked at his broken halberd and became angry.

"Impossible...Impossible!" He shouted as he pounced on Shiji, stretching out his hands, trying to strangle Shiji's neck.

Shiji bent down and dodged again.

"The Dragon and Tiger Palace is famous far and wide. It turns out that the so-called 'meticulous training' means this kind of stuff—" Shiji deliberately lengthened her voice and said provocatively.

The warrior rushed at him again, "Hah—"

Shiji still didn't make a move, but just dodged slightly.

"The Dragon and Tiger Palace can only train useless people. With this little ability, you still want to kill me? This is ridiculous!"

The warriors nearby were silent.

The warrior attacked several times in succession, trying his best each time, trying to kill Shiji with one move, but all his moves were useless to Shiji.

Shiji stood there, calm and composed, not even breathing, just looking at the warrior indifferently.

The warrior became even more annoyed, but at this time he was exhausted and could only watch Shiji standing there leisurely.

Shiji chuckled and began to gather Qi with both hands, but then loosened them. Perhaps he felt that this kind of power was too much to use against a warrior, so he used two fingers to gather Qi, and a cyclone of Qi flowed out from his fingertips.

He waved his hand lightly in the direction of the warrior, and the cyclone turned into a huge force, sweeping towards the warrior.

The warrior was helpless. He knew he couldn't just give in and tried to resist, but in the end he found that it was in vain. He alone could not resist this powerful force.

Shiji laughed and said, "You little ant, you still want to kill me?" As he said that, he flew towards the warrior.

As he charged, he gathered his spiritual energy with two fingers. This time, unlike last time, there seemed to be light flashing at his fingertips. He struck the warrior in the chest, and then his true energy burst out.

The warrior exploded like a firework, and the surroundings were immediately stained red with blood. Even the bones were broken, and the scene was horrible. The warriors next to him were all splattered with blood.

Shiji, who was in the center of the pool of blood, had not a drop of blood on his body or face, as if the pool of blood under him had nothing to do with him.

While using his true qi, Shiji set up a barrier for himself to prevent the blood from splashing on his body. In this way, his clothes were not stained at all.

The warriors nearby were stunned.

They didn't speak for a long time, and they didn't even dare to breathe. It was too scary, really too scary. Compared with the robber just now, the robber was lucky to leave his body intact.

At this time, they understood one thing, that is, even if they resisted, it would be futile. They had no chance to resist at all, the man standing in front of them was terribly powerful!
The warriors became more aware that they were no match for him. Even if they joined forces, they might not be able to hurt him at all!
The warriors became even more silent. Although they cared about the Dragon and Tiger Palace, in the face of such a powerful force, they could only choose to surrender.

Shiji turned around and looked at them.

"Have you figured out what to do?" he asked.

The warriors were silent.

"Ok?"

At this time, several warriors knelt down with their fists clasped, and shouted: "We are willing to serve our master!"

One person spoke up, and others followed suit.

"We are willing to serve our master!" They all knelt down and shouted in unison.

Shiji smiled and said, "It seems that if I don't teach you a lesson, you won't know who is the boss."

After saying that, he turned around and walked forward, saying: "In that case, let's continue on our way."

Shiji and the warriors were walking calmly, when suddenly a faint cry for help came: "Help me, help me..." Shiji looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman in a green dress running towards him. The dress seemed to have been torn in several places by branches during the long journey, and the hem of the dress was covered with mud, making her look quite embarrassed.

The woman was obviously exhausted, and she stumbled and fell into Shiji's arms. She pleaded in a hoarse voice: "Please, save me... They are chasing me!"

Shiji looked up and saw several people in black coats and grey boots chasing after her. One of the tall men pointed at Shiji and said viciously: "Hand this girl over quickly if you know what's good for you, or don't blame us for being rude!"

"Oh?" Shiji raised an eyebrow, a cold light flashed in his eyes, "What if I just don't hand it over? How are you going to be rude to me?"

The other men in black also rushed over and stood beside the tall man, threatening him in unison: "Then you can just wait for a hole to be dug and bury yourself!"

The pigeon elf put his hands on his hips and said angrily: "Master, they are too arrogant! Go teach them a lesson and let them know who is the real overlord!"

Shi Ji snorted coldly: "You are so arrogant, who knows who will be buried in the end!"

Seeing that Shiji didn't take them seriously, the men in black unleashed a powerful pressure. The warriors behind Shiji were pressed to the ground, gasping for breath, as if someone had strangled them and they couldn't breathe.

But Shiji stood there calmly, forming a sharp contrast with the fallen warriors. Seeing this, the man in black muttered to himself: This kid is so young, but he really has some skills.

The tall man in black might be their leader. He secretly said to the other men in black: "This guy is not easy to deal with. Although we are outnumbered, we still have to be careful. What if his strength far exceeds ours, or he has some powerful backers behind him, then we will be in trouble."

A thin man in black asked timidly, "Should we still hunt her down?"

The tall man in black said resolutely: "Of course we have to chase her, but we only need to kill her and try not to hurt that kid. If we let her escape, I don't know how the master will punish us when we return."

As he said that, he pointed at the thin man in black and said, "You, when that guy puts her down later, go and kill her. Do you understand?"

The thin man in black replied timidly: "I understand, I understand."

They thought their voices were very quiet, but they didn't expect that Shiji, who was not far away, heard everything clearly. Shiji pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "Huh, a bunch of self-righteous guys."

The tall man in black turned around and said to Shiji, "Boy, don't be shameless. I'll give you one more chance. Put her down and let us take her away. Everything that happened before will be forgiven."

Shiji remained silent.

The men in black wanted to say something, but suddenly, a huge pressure came, and everyone seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand. The weaker men in black turned red, staggered, and fell to the ground one after another.

Although the stronger men in black were still able to stand, their faces did not look very good.

Shiji held the woman in his arms and instantly flashed behind the men in black, punching them hard on the back. His movements were as fast as lightning, and even the tall men in black didn't have time to react.

"Puff!" Several men in black suddenly spat out blood.

"How could it be!" The tall man in black widened his eyes in disbelief. At Shiji's age, how could he have such a strong power?
He gathered a ball of Qi in his palm and attacked Shiji. Unexpectedly, Shiji dodged it easily and hit the thin man in black who was about to attack him.

Shiji gathered the true energy in his hands again and dealt a fatal blow to the thin man in black.

"Ah!" The thin man in black screamed, feeling that all his bones were broken and blood flowed from his mouth.

Only the last tall man in black was left. Shiji looked at him with a smile.

"What do you want to do!" The tall man in black waved his hands, his eyes full of fear. Although Shiji smiled gently, in his eyes, she was as scary as the god of death.

"Wow! I have to say, Shiji is really amazing!" A warrior exclaimed, "The pressure released by those people just now was so strong that we were all crushed to the ground, but he seemed to be fine."

"That's right," another warrior echoed, "And this time when he was fighting, he didn't even need our help. He was able to deal with so many people by himself. And the opponents were all powerful killers!"

"Alas, when can we be as strong as him?" The warriors sighed in unison.

Seeing that Shiji was about to attack again, the tall man in black became ruthless and seemed to swallow something black. Then, his face turned pale and his tall body fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

Shiji frowned and reached out to feel his breath, but he was already dead. "Oh, he chose to commit suicide. What a loyal dog!" Shiji sneered.

He looked at the warriors behind him meaningfully, and they all broke out in a cold sweat. "He... doesn't want us to die too, does he?" a young warrior asked in a trembling voice.

"No way! If he really meant this, he wouldn't have reminded us so many times before." Another warrior comforted.

Shiji was disdainful in his heart. It seemed that he was a loyal subordinate, but his loyalty was given to the wrong person. A group of big men bullying a weak woman, what kind of heroes are they?

The woman in his arms saw that all the people chasing her were dead, and she finally felt relieved. Her tired eyelids gradually closed and she fainted. (End of this chapter)
