Prehistoric: The female saint Shiji, brilliant and talented

The two clashed, and neither could gain the upper hand after a single move. This surprised Shi Ji greatly, as she hadn't expected that the Emperor-level expert would be able to withstand her attack.

It seems that this Emperor-level expert is not to be underestimated, and he also possesses many secret techniques. If he were to unleash them, they would undoubtedly pose a great threat to Shi Ji.

"Brother Daoist, how about you give this old man some face? I can guarantee that this matter will absolutely not be leaked!"

Just then, on the other side, an ancient ship flew rapidly toward Shiji and landed steadily.

A group of cultivators stood on the ancient ship, led by an old man. Shi Ji recognized the old man; his name was Lu Tianlong.

This guy once chased after him and the ferocious beast army of the Evil Sea, almost causing him to perish in the Evil Sea.

However, the ferocious beast army of the Evil Sea was later annihilated, and the old man took the opportunity to escape. Shi Ji did not hold it against him.

"Who are you?" Shi Ji asked calmly, her expression serene.

Lu Tianlong clasped his hands in a salute and said, "I am Lu Tianlong from Immortal Spirit Manor. Fellow Daoist, you must have heard of the renowned reputation of Immortal Spirit Manor, right?"

Shi Ji raised an eyebrow slightly. He had indeed heard of the reputation of Immortal Spirit Manor, but so what? He didn't take it seriously at all.

Shi Ji said calmly, "I don't care if you're from Immortal Spirit Manor or Demon Spirit Manor. Today, whoever dares to touch her, I will slaughter; whoever dares to stop me, I will kill. No one can save you!"

"You ignorant fool!" A chorus of angry roars erupted around them, many cursing. In their eyes, how powerful was Immortal Spirit Manor? In the Nine Provinces World, it was an absolute behemoth. For Shi Ji to dare to provoke them like this was simply courting death.

Everyone present felt that Shi Ji was extremely arrogant and didn't take Xianling Manor seriously at all.

"You little beast!" Lu Tianlong gritted his teeth, glaring fiercely at Shi Ji.

Shi Ji was really too much, completely disregarding him, which made Lu Tianlong furious and wished he could slap Shi Ji to death immediately.

However, Lu Tianlong was shrewd and knew that if he attacked Shi Ji now, he would not only fail to suppress him, but might also bring trouble upon himself.

Is it worth it?
A moment of hesitation flashed through Lu Tianlong's mind.

"Haha, I know you don't dare to deal with me. You're just afraid of death, that's why you don't dare to make a move rashly. But you must remember, this is only temporary! One day, I will pay a visit to your Immortal Spirit Manor!"

Lu Tianlong's face instantly turned ashen. To have his cowardice exposed in public by a young brat was an absolute humiliation for him, making him so angry he wanted to go crazy.

Shi Ji, too lazy to pay attention to Lu Tianlong, that despicable and shameless fellow, turned around and looked down the cliff. He sensed a dense aura of death emanating from the cliff, as if the coffin lid of the ancient tomb might be opened at any moment.

Shi Ji knew in his heart that once the terrifying being in the coffin was revived, he and Xia Zidie would probably die without a doubt.

Not long after, Shi Ji and Xia Zidie arrived at the bottom of the cliff and saw the huge tomb.

The tomb occupies half a mountain peak in a canyon. It is pitch black and shrouded in a thick aura of death, permeating the void and suffocating people.

This is where that terrifying being resides. Xia Zidie took a deep breath and said, "I really wish I could leave here now."

Seeing Xia Zidie's worried expression, Shi Ji comforted her, "Don't worry, this place is no longer dangerous to me. I'll take you to a secluded place to hide, and then we'll work together to break down that megalithic formation."

The next moment, Shi Ji grabbed Xia Zi Die's hand, and the two of them took off into the air and quickly flew away into the distance.

Meanwhile, the hundreds of powerful cultivators sent by Lu Tianlong followed closely behind. These cultivators' target was Shi Ji and Xia Zidie, and they wanted to take the opportunity to kill the two of them.

But would Shiji sit idly by and wait for her doom?
He activated his golden wings, instantly increasing his speed and leaving Lu Tianlong and the others who were chasing him far behind in the blink of an eye.

Shi Ji stopped beside a rock wall, reached out and ripped through the void.

Then, Shi Ji and Xia Zidie disappeared without a trace.

"That damned little beast, he actually got away! But there's the aura of that terrifying being here. As long as we keep investigating, we'll find those two sooner or later!"

"Young Master Lu, what should we do? Are we just going to give up like this?"

They suffered heavy losses; several experts from Immortal Spirit Manor perished here.

If they get nothing, Lu Tianlong will definitely punish them when they get back.

"How could a mere young upstart possibly cause any trouble?"

Lu Tianlong snorted coldly, then shouted in a deep voice, "Chase them! Make sure to capture these two alive! I will reward them handsomely!"

Then, the cultivators quickly rushed in the direction Shi Ji had fled, chasing after her all the way.

Shi Ji led Xia Zidie, constantly changing positions in the void. After escaping for an unknown period of time, they finally managed to completely shake off the cultivators.

"There seems to be a swamp ahead?" Xia Zidie pointed into the distance and said.

Shi Ji nodded and led Xia Zidie into the swamp. Deep in the swamp, he found a hidden cave.

Shi Ji led Xia Zidie into the cave, then closed the stone door at the entrance, cutting off all contact.

"Why don't you take a rest?"

Shi Ji looked at Xia Zidie and said.

Xia Zidie nodded and lay down on the ground to rest.

Shi Ji then took out a pill and consumed it, before circulating her internal energy to heal her injuries.

Time passed slowly, and Shi Ji's injuries had almost fully recovered. He got up and checked himself over, finding nothing unusual.

Xia Zidie was still fast asleep, clearly having been seriously injured and not yet awake.

Shi Ji walked to Xia Zidie's side and sat cross-legged.

He was just about to use his Heaven-Mending Technique to help Xia Zidie heal her injuries when Xia Zidie suddenly opened her eyes.

"Huh?" Xia Zidie looked at Shi Ji in surprise.

Shi Ji's sudden attack had startled her.

But after careful observation, Xia Zidie found that Shi Ji's aura was very peaceful and there was no hostility, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Young master, what are you doing here?" Xia Zidie asked in confusion.

Shi Ji said, "I heard you were being chased by Lu Tianlong's men, so I rushed here to help you resolve this trouble!"

"I see, thank you for your help, young master!" Xia Zidie quickly said.

"There's no need for formalities between us friends!"

Shi Ji smiled slightly, then placed her right palm on Xia Zidie's back.

Instantly, a boundless and unparalleled spiritual power surged into Xia Zidie's mind.

That immense and vast power of the soul, like a surging wave, seemed to possess the terrifying power to destroy everything.

Under the intense impact of this extremely powerful soul force, the toxins that were originally left in Xia Zidie's body were being expelled from her body at an extremely rapid pace.

Not long after, Xia Zidie slightly opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of black blood. Her pretty face, which was originally as pale as a sheet of paper, gradually regained some color.

"This soul power is so domineering, it's truly unbelievable!" Xia Zidie exclaimed repeatedly. This soul power was too strange. She even couldn't help but wonder if the residual poison in her body could be completely eliminated by Shi Ji.

"Young Master truly possesses extraordinary fortune; Zi Die sincerely admires him!" With that, she stood up and respectfully bowed to Shi Ji.

Shi Ji gave a wry smile and replied, "I'm not some miracle doctor who can bring the dead back to life; I've just been lucky enough to inherit some knowledge."

He did not tell Xia Zidie the secret of the Reincarnation Stone, because in his opinion, the fewer people who knew about such things, the better.

“Zi Die understands that the young master must be someone who has had extraordinary adventures!” Xia Zi Die said.

Shi Ji didn't offer any further explanation, but instead changed the subject, asking, "How did you end up here with Lu Tianlong? And why is he chasing after you?"

The moment Lu Tianlong was mentioned, a chilling killing intent flashed in Xia Zidie's beautiful eyes.

This murderous intent made Shi Ji frown slightly.

Based on Shi Ji's understanding of Lu Tianlong, Xia Zidie's assassination by his men must be inextricably linked to Lu Tianlong.

Otherwise, why would Lu Tianlong want to kill Xia Zidie?
Although Lu Tianlong had once been kind to Xia Zidie, Shi Ji felt that Lu Tianlong's behavior was excessive because he did not care about Xia Zidie's safety at all.

Xia Zidie took a deep breath, trying to calm the surging anger in her heart, and slowly said, "When we were besieged, he did not come to our aid, and even sent people to kill us. If it weren't for your timely help, I would probably be dead today!"

Upon hearing Xia Zidie's words, Shi Ji cursed inwardly, "Bastard."

In fact, he should have thought of these things long ago. If Lu Tianlong truly loved Xia Zidie, why would he send someone to intercept and kill her?

Moreover, Lu Tianlong had vowed to marry Xia Zidie at the time.

Unfortunately, Xia Zidie completely ignored Lu Tianlong at the time. In her heart, she believed that Shi Ji was the most suitable man for her.

Shi Ji was always quite enthusiastic about women, but he just couldn't bring himself to like Xia Zidie.

Because Shi Ji always felt that this woman was too enchanting.

In Shi Ji's eyes, Xia Zidie was like an extremely cunning fox with a deep and shrewd mind.

She always put on a weak and helpless appearance, but in reality, Xia Zidie is a ruthless and powerful "tiger mom".

The fact that she was able to thrive in such a harsh environment is proof enough of her extraordinary abilities.

"Since he has treated you this way, from now on we will go our separate ways and have no further connection with each other!"

Shi Ji's attitude was very firm.

A sense of sadness welled up in Xia Zidie's heart.

However, she quickly composed herself and said, "Young master, your injuries are not fully healed yet. I have a pill here that may help you recover as soon as possible."

"Oh? You have such a treasure? Thank you so much!"

Xia Zidie took out a bright green pill from her storage ring and handed it to Shi Ji.

This is a third-grade elixir with astonishing medicinal effects.

After Xia Zidie took the third-grade spiritual pill, her injuries recovered rapidly.

In just about fifteen minutes, her complexion returned to normal, and her breathing became long and steady, clearly indicating that she had recovered to her peak condition.

Xia Zidie's strength is indeed not to be underestimated, as Shi Ji witnessed firsthand.

"By the way, Purple Butterfly, there's something I've always forgotten to ask you: where is your father?"

Shi Ji suddenly remembered this matter; he still owed Xia Zidie an answer.

Xia Zidie looked somber and said, "My mother passed away a long time ago, and my father was framed by villains and died in a fire!"

Upon hearing Xia Zidie's answer, Shi Ji couldn't help but sigh softly. Such a tragic ending was truly heartbreaking.

"But don't worry, I'll protect you well from now on!"

Shi Ji patted her chest and said firmly.

Xia Zidie's delicate body trembled slightly; Shi Ji's words deeply touched her heart.

Xia Zidie threw herself into Shi Ji's arms and began to sob.

Shi Ji reached out and gently embraced Xia Zidie, letting her cry as much as she wanted.

Although he didn't know exactly what kind of life-and-death separation Xia Zidie had experienced, he could guess that Lu Tianlong was definitely involved in the deaths of Xia Zidie's parents. No matter who killed her parents, Lu Tianlong could not escape responsibility.

Shi Ji slowly clenched her fists, a surge of anger rising within her.

"Young master, I have avenged my parents! From now on, I only want to focus on cultivation! Once I am strong enough, I will go back and seek revenge!"

After a long silence, Xia Zidie said, her voice choked with emotion.

Shi Ji nodded in response: "Okay! I will fully support your choice!"

Xia Zidie wiped away her tears and said, "I have another important matter I would like to discuss with you, young master!"

Shi Ji asked, "What is it?"

"I want to become your disciple!" Xia Zidie's words startled Shi Ji. Her gaze was incredibly firm, clearly she wasn't joking.

Shi Ji was somewhat surprised and asked, "You want to become my disciple? Are you sure?"

"That's right! I'm willing! I want to become stronger, I want revenge, and I want everyone who has ever bullied me to pay a terrible price!"

Xia Zidie gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with hatred, and said firmly.

Shi Ji nodded noncommittally and slowly said, "Since you have such a firm determination, then I will accept you as my disciple. However, before that, you must answer a few questions for me. If I am satisfied with your answers, I will formally accept you as my disciple!"

"Yes, please ask away, young master!" Xia Zidie replied quickly.

"My first question is, how long have you been in the Tianwu Great World?" Shi Ji asked, looking directly at Xia Zidie.

Xia Zidie pondered for a moment, then replied, "Two and a half years!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji suddenly realized that she had actually been in the Tianwu Great World for more than two years.

No wonder she is so powerful; even I have greatly underestimated her fighting strength.

"Do you know about the myriad races?" Shi Ji continued to press.

"The myriad races? It is said that they are the rulers of the Tianwu Great World, with many experts and extraordinary strength!" Xia Zidie replied earnestly.

After pondering for a moment, Shi Ji decided to tell Xia Zidie about her origins.

Xia Zidie was very surprised after hearing this. She knew that Shi Ji came from the outside world, but she did not expect that he came from another dimension.

"Have you ever been to other realms?" Shi Ji asked again. (End of Chapter)
