Primordial Era: The Holy Maiden Shiji, a woman of exceptional talent and beauty

"This guy is so arrogant!"

"I thought the people in the Dragon and Tiger Palace were already domineering enough, but I didn't expect to meet someone more domineering than them today."

"Haha, this is the first time I've met such an interesting person. This guy is really brave."

Everyone was talking about it, and their eyes were full of ridicule when they looked at Shiji.

An ordinary person who dares to provoke the people from the Dragon and Tiger Palace is simply seeking his own death.

"Huh?" The burly man was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Shiji to be so rampant.

"Boy, do you know what you are talking about?" The sturdy man narrowed his eyes and exuded a terrifying aura.

Shiji sneered, showing no fear at all, and said indifferently: "Hasn't what I said been clear enough? If you want to do it, just do it."

The sturdy man was silent for a moment, then restrained his momentum.

For some reason, he had a feeling that if he really did it, he might be killed instantly. Although this feeling was hard for him to believe.

He said in a low voice: "I advise you to be sensible and not to seek death, otherwise you will die without knowing how."

"Oh? Are you threatening me?" Shiji's face darkened. As a Chaos Saint, even if the power of chaos was temporarily sealed, he was still no match for a warrior who had reached the Perfection of Sea Breaking.

"That's right, I'm threatening you. If you don't obey, I will kill you now!" the burly man said coldly and ruthlessly, emitting a terrifying murderous aura that enveloped the entire campus street.

In the Xuanlong Kingdom, apart from those old monsters, who dared to provoke him? That's why he was so unscrupulous.

"What an arrogant slave, you dare to threaten me." Shiji's eyes flashed with a cold light. When he was about to take action, Bai Yiyi suddenly stood up, pulled Shiji's sleeve and said, "Forget it, let's go. After all, he is from the Dragon and Tiger Palace. We can't fight him."

Although Bai Yiyi doesn't know Shiji's true identity, she is worried that Shiji will be retaliated by the Dragon and Tiger Palace, so she doesn't want anything to happen to him.

When Shiji saw Bai Yiyi pulling her sleeve, a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes.

Although the two had only known each other for a short time, they had developed a wonderful connection. He could feel Bai Yiyi's concern for him.

"Who dares to threaten my granddaughter like this?"

At this moment, an old man with white beard and white hair and a youthful face slowly stepped into the air. With every step he took, the space seemed to explode, and storms were set off around him, making people feel suffocated.

This scene shocked everyone.

The white-bearded old man was wearing a golden robe, with his hands behind his back, looking down upon the whole audience with pride.

When he descended, the people around him couldn't help but tremble and their souls felt depressed.

"The Dean of Yutian College?" The burly man's pupils shrank, and his eyes revealed fear and solemnity.

He never expected that the dean of Yutian Academy, who had not appeared for almost a year, would show up in person and protect Bai Yiyi so much.

"Granddaughter, are you okay?" The dean swept his eyes across the audience and then looked at Bai Yiyi.

Bai Yiyi shook her head: "It's okay, Dean Grandpa, don't worry."

The dean breathed a sigh of relief, as he thought something had happened to Bai Yiyi.

However, when he saw Shiji acting as if nothing had happened, he frowned slightly and thought to himself, "Who is this guy? How could he not be influenced by the First Guard Captain of the Dragon and Tiger Palace?"

"Dean Ma, Bai Yiyi is the person that the young prince of our Dragon and Tiger Palace has personally requested. Please hand her over to us!" The burly man took a deep breath, and his tone became serious, but he no longer dared to be as arrogant as before.

"Haha, so you are from the Dragon and Tiger Palace? No wonder you are so arrogant." Ma Deyuan sneered, and then said, "But, what about the Dragon and Tiger Palace? I will never hand this little girl over. She is my goddaughter. If you touch her, you will be slapping me, Ma Deyuan, in the face!"

Hearing the dean's determination, the burly man's heart sank.

This is bad.

"Dean Ma, you should understand what our little prince means to your Yutian Academy." The burly man gritted his teeth, feeling very aggrieved.

"What does it mean?" Ma Deyuan sneered, and then said coldly, "I might as well tell you that my Yutian Academy is not afraid of any force. Let alone the Dragon and Tiger Palace, even the royal family, my Yutian Academy may not take it seriously."

As soon as Ma Deyuan said this, everyone present was terrified and their eyes were filled with disbelief.

Ma Deyuan's words were extremely arrogant.

Although the Dragon and Tiger Palace does not belong to the imperial dynasty, their status is equally inviolable.

"Dean grandpa!" Bai Yiyi said hurriedly.

She knew that the dean was supporting her, but Yutian Academy was after all on the land of Xuanlong Kingdom, and the Longhu Palace was one of the most powerful forces in the Xuanlong Kingdom.

If she completely angered the Dragon and Tiger Palace, it would not just be her trouble.

"Yiyi, grandpa will definitely do what he promised you." Ma Deyuan touched Bai Yiyi's hair and said lovingly, "Don't be afraid."

Shiji glanced at Bai Yiyi, then shifted her gaze to the burly man, with a playful smile on her face, and said, "Are you going to make the decision for the Dragon and Tiger Palace?"

Shiji's eyes were very calm, and she even had an air of looking down on the world. She didn't take the Dragon and Tiger Palace seriously at all.

"You're looking for death!" The burly man was furious, and rushed out suddenly, turning into a black afterimage, attacking Shiji. The murderous aura rolled and filled the sky and earth.

Although he is only a peak Sea-Breaking warrior, his physical strength is extremely terrifying, far exceeding that of warriors of the same level.

However, Shiji did not take action because Ma Deyuan had already taken action.

"A mere trifle!" Ma Deyuan chuckled indifferently and threw a punch. The surging magic power surged out like a flood, instantly submerging the burly man.

"boom!"

In the blink of an eye, the burly man flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and crashed into a building.

"How is this possible?" Everyone who witnessed this scene widened their eyes and looked shocked.

With one strike, he knocked the captain of the guards of the Dragon and Tiger Palace, who was at the peak of the Sea Breaking Realm, completely defenseless. Could it be that the dean of the Yutian Academy is already a strong man at the Stepping Heaven Realm?
"This old guy is really good at hiding." The master from the Dragon and Tiger Palace who was hiding in the crowd narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"How dare you attack me?" The burly man struggled to get up, his eyes full of horror.

Ma Deyuan snorted coldly, not wanting to pay attention to him. He turned to look at Shiji, showing a kind smile of an elder towards a younger generation, and asked, "You are Yiyi's friend, right?"

"Oh, Dean grandpa, he is just my friend." Bai Yiyi stomped her feet and her cheeks turned red instantly.

"Oh?" Ma Deyuan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Bai Yiyi, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.

Bai Yiyi felt uneasy when Ma Deyuan looked at her. Why did the dean look at her like that?

"Since we are friends, there is nothing wrong with that." Ma Deyuan suddenly smiled and said, "I see that you are very talented. If you are willing to join Yutian Academy, how about I take you in as my apprentice?"

Shiji frowned and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary." Hearing this, Ma Deyuan raised his eyebrows and showed surprise on his face. He is a strong man in the Heaven-Stepping Realm, and there are no more than ten of them in the entire Xuanlong Kingdom. How could he be rejected by this kid?
After a moment, he laughed, turned his gaze to Bai Yiyi, and said, "You are so lucky, girl, to have met such a good grandfather like me. If you have any problems in the future, just tell grandpa, and grandpa will definitely protect you."

Bai Yiyi blinked, feeling that the dean was a little strange, but still nodded obediently.

"Little guy, what's your name?" Ma Deyuan asked again.

"Shiji." Shiji replied.

"Shiji?" Ma Deyuan muttered in a low voice, then patted Shiji on the shoulder and said, "Shiji, I remember your name."

"Thank you, Dean." Shiji nodded. Although he had some doubts in his heart, after all, others helped him. He couldn't be ungrateful, right?

Ma Deyuan nodded, and then looked at the burly man, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, "You wanted to take my granddaughter away just now, are you trying to use my Yutian Academy to establish your authority?"

"I dare not, I dare not." The burly man waved his hands quickly, "How dare I?" Although the Stepping Heaven Realm is only one major realm higher than the Breaking the Sea Realm, the gap between them is like a natural chasm.

Ma Deyuan is a genuine strong man in the realm of stepping on the sky, and he is also a more powerful one among them. It is easy to kill him.

"Go away." Ma Deyuan waved his hand, too lazy to argue with him anymore.

"Yes!" The burly man breathed a sigh of relief and left in shame.

"Little guy, tell me the truth, what is your relationship with Yiyi? I see that you two are in love with each other, and I don't want Yiyi to suffer any grievances." Ma Deyuan looked at Shiji and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Shiji's mouth twitched.

Why did he feel that this old man was deliberately making things difficult for him?

Bai Yiyi hid behind Shiji in shame and anger. The dean was so mean that he actually made fun of her in front of outsiders.

"Dean grandpa, what are you talking about? Shiji and I are really just ordinary friends." Bai Yiyi poked her head out from behind Shiji and said with puffed cheeks.

Ma Deyuan shook his head, looking as if he knew it all.

Shiji showed an embarrassed look on her face and said, "The dean has misunderstood. Miss Yiyi and I are indeed just ordinary friends. We have no other relationship."

After hearing Shiji's explanation, Bai Yiyi let out a breath and smiled happily, but why did she feel a little disappointed in her heart?

"Well, if that's the case, then forget it." Ma Deyuan nodded and turned around.

Suddenly, a gust of wind swept in and knocked him away.

"Who? How dare you sneak attack me?" Ma Deyuan coughed twice and looked at the black-robed man who was supposed to leave but came back. It was the man brought by the captain of the guards.

"Ma Deyuan, long time no see."

The black-robed man's voice was hoarse and unpleasant, as if it had been sharpened by sandpaper, extremely harsh.

"So it's you?" Ma Deyuan's expression suddenly became solemn, and two sharp rays of light burst out of his eyes. "What are you doing here?"

The man in black robe raised his head, revealing half of his hideous and ugly face. He was the guest of the Dragon and Tiger Palace, the Dark Demon!
"Hehehe, what do you think?" The Dark Demon's evil gaze swept around and finally stopped on Bai Yiyi, with a weird smile on the corner of his mouth.

Ma Deyuan was silent for a few seconds, then his eyes suddenly became stern and he said, "You want to snatch my granddaughter?"

"You guessed right!" The Dark Demon chuckled.

"I advise you to give up. With your strength, there is no way you can beat me." Ma Deyuan said lightly.

"Oh? You don't think that you, an old fellow, are the only one who has reached the realm of stepping into the sky?" The Dark Demon grinned, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Ma Deyuan's pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart skipped a beat. He knew what the Dark Demon was talking about as a strong man in the Heavenly Realm!

"You have broken through to the Heaven-Stepping Realm?" Ma Deyuan asked in shock.

"That's right, I have broken through to the middle stage of the Heaven-Stepping Realm, which is only one small realm stronger than you!" The Dark Demon grinned.

Ma Deyuan sighed, he knew that he could no longer stop the dark demon.

Bai Yiyi looked at the dark demon that suddenly appeared, and a chill rose in her heart. She felt that this dark demon was so scary.

"Yiyi, go with Shiji!"

Ma Deyuan gritted his teeth and launched a sneak attack on the Dark Demon without hesitation. He was no match for the Dark Demon, so he could only attack first to protect Bai Yiyi from escaping.

"Old thing, you are looking for death!" The Dark Demon shouted angrily. His figure disappeared from the spot like a ghost, appeared in front of Ma Deyuan, and punched him!
"No!" Ma Deyuan's face changed drastically. He could clearly feel the terrifying power of the Dark Demon's punch. He couldn't resist it at all!
"boom!"

Accompanied by a muffled sound, Ma Deyuan's chest caved in, his bones broke, blood splattered, and his body flew backwards like a cannonball.

The whole place was silent, everyone was shocked by this scene!

They didn't even understand what was happening. They only saw Ma Deyuan fighting with the Dark Demon, and then Ma Deyuan flew away!

How is this possible!

The dean of Yutian Academy of Xuanyun Kingdom, the powerful man who had reached the level of stepping on heaven, was defeated so easily?

Bai Yiyi's heart suddenly clenched. She stared in amazement at Ma Deyuan's serious injury. She rushed over and shouted anxiously, "Grandpa Dean, how are you?"

Ma Deyuan slowly opened his eyes, his lips trembling slightly: "Yiyi, don't worry about me, run away quickly."

As soon as he finished speaking, a fierce force came roaring.

Just when everyone thought that Ma Deyuan was about to die here, Shiji suddenly appeared in front of everyone like a ghost, and no one noticed his movements.

Just when the Dark Demon thought that the old man was powerless to resist and victory was in his grasp, Shiji flashed and saved Ma Deyuan who was about to fall into the Dark Demon's clutches.

Not only did he save Ma Deyuan, he also pulled Bai Yiyi out of the dark demon's attack range.

In a flash, a deep pit appeared where Ma Deyuan had just fallen, making the people watching the battle around him worry for Ma Deyuan.

"Who is so bold as to ruin my good deeds?"

The Dark Demon's attack missed, and his voice was full of majesty and anger. The weaker people around him could not bear it and vomited blood.

Shiji waved her hand gently to block the pressure of the dark demon for Bai Yiyi and Ma Deyuan behind her.

"Hmph, nothing more than that." He looked at the Dark Demon with contempt and said softly.

Shiji glanced at the two people behind him, signaling them to evacuate quickly, while he went to fight alone.

Bai Yiyi understood Shiji's intention instantly, and she helped the dean back away quickly, fearing that it would affect Shiji's fight. (End of this chapter)
