I Am Overlord Chapter 1529: If You Want To Fight, We Fight

Chapter 1529: If You Want To Fight, We Fight

Regardless of whether it was the Radiant Saint Sword, the Divine Devilish Black Saber, or the Yin Mother Sword, none of them was Xiang Shaoyun's lifebound weapon. Only the Overlord Skyslaying Saber nourished in his body was the most suitable weapon for him. Unfortunately, he still didn't have the suitable materials to complete the saber. Otherwise, he would have been able to start using it.
"If I can get one more piece of primal chaos stone, it would be perfect," said Xiang Shaoyun with a sigh.
After half a month of rest, he ended his cultivation session and resumed his hunt. He wanted to make use of his remaining two and a half years to reach the late-stage Heaven Battling Realm. At that point, his soul clone would probably be strong enough to contend against Gods.
Upon ending his cultivation session, he found that a large number of people had arrived outside his encampment. He learned from Devouring Ghost that they were unaffiliated cultivators. They wanted to serve and protect the dominion, but unfortunately, they had limited strength and weren't able to achieve much in the war. When they learned that Xiang Shaoyun was the disciple of a lord guardian and heard of his recent fame, they decided to follow Xiang Shaoyun.
"Overlord, we are currently lacking people. These unaffiliated cultivators are not weak at all. It would be a good idea to take them in," said Devouring Ghost.
Xiang Shaoyun gave it some thought and agreed, "Ok. Let's go take a look."
Whether it was to strengthen the Ziling Sect or to fight against the devils, he needed to meet these cultivators.
About 150 unaffiliated cultivators had gathered outside the encampment. People with all sorts of cultivation levels were among them, from Dragon Ascension Realm cultivators to Heaven Battling Realm cultivators. There were men, women, the young, and the old. All of them were looking at Xiang Shaoyun with reverence in their eyes.
Xiang Shaoyun's performance half a month ago had sufficiently proved his strength. He was practically guaranteed a spot as one of the new Guardians at this point. Furthermore, he was also the Ziling Sect's young sect master. Everyone also knew that despite being the young sect master, he was the sect's true leader because the sect master had gone missing. For these unaffiliated cultivators, following someone so young and full of potential was probably the smartest option.
"Greetings, Overlord," greeted the unaffiliated cultivators.
"Be at ease. I heard you're interested in following me?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.
"We are willing to become your loyal followers, Overlord," answered the unaffiliated cultivators.
"I believe your words. However, you still need to go through my test before I can accept you without worry. I do not wish to have any disloyal people by my side," said Xiang Shaoyun coldly. "Those who wish to withdraw may still do so. If anyone dares to approach me with thoughts of disloyalty, I promise you will suffer."
He first made things clear so that some of those who had come with impure intentions would withdraw out of fear. Sure enough, after his warning, some people left quietly. Xiang Shaoyun did not say anything to prevent them from leaving. He let Devouring Ghost test the ones who had remained. With Devouring Ghost's methods, those tested wouldn't be able to create much trouble.
In fact, Devouring Ghost had found some talented candidates among the cultivators. If they could prove their loyalty, he wouldn't mind putting some effort into improving their strength.
After dealing with the crowd, Xiang Shaoyun prepared to step into the battlefield once again. He aimed to charge straight into the Devil Domain this time. Only by doing so would he be able to squeeze out all his potential and speed up his growth.
He did not hesitate to carry out the plan he had in mind. Instead of charging straight to the entrance, he aimed to approach silently. After all, Devil Gods protected the entrance. He had to stealthily approach one of the Gods before ambushing and killing the God. Perhaps such methods would be able to plant some fear into these devil invaders.
But before Xiang Shaoyun could begin, Yu Huayan and two pseudo-Gods arrived. Like a queen of flowers, Yu Huayan's beauty bloomed and attracted the attention of many cultivators. They all gasped in astonishment at her beauty.
She rushed straight toward Xiang Shaoyun's encampment. With her strength, she was naturally unaffected by the formations he had placed on the encampment. Even so, she did not dare to rashly intrude. She stopped outside and said, "Xiang Shaoyun, Yu Caidie, come out."
Xiang Shaoyun and Yu Caidie knew that they had to face this. Hand in hand, they walked out.
"Leave. I won't go with you," said Yu Caidie calmly.
"Your incident has created a big ruckus. If you don't come back with me, I'm afraid even the elders will have to make a move. Then, both of you will suffer," persuaded Yu Huayan calmly instead of using force.
"Even if your entire clan comes, Caidie won't go with you. She's already my woman," declared Xiang Shaoyun firmly as he wrapped his arms around Yu Caidie.
"What? Y-you already did the dirty deed?" Yu Huayan exclaimed, her face falling.
"What do you mean by dirty deed? We have been companions for over two lifetimes. We are destined to be together. If you guys continue to pester us endlessly, a day will come when I punch my way into your clan and turn it upside down," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?" said Yu Huayan, thoroughly infuriated. Her God aura surged and pressed down at Xiang Shaoyun.
Xiang Shaoyun showed no fear as he faced the terrifying aura with his back straight. "If you want to fight, we fight."
He then unleashed his combat strength, which was comparable with a pseudo-God's. If he used his soul clone, he could even be a match for Yu Huayan.
Yu Caidie stood firmly by Xiang Shaoyun's side. Her aura also erupted as the phantom of a phoenix manifested, surrounding her in a raging flame.
Unlike Xiang Shaoyun, Yu Caidie had fused her strength from her previous life into her current body. She was slowly regaining her previously sealed strength. Before long, she would fully regain her strength. That was why she had been able to grow so rapidly.
"Very well. I'll personally capture both of you and have the elders deal with you," said Yu Huayan furiously as she reached out for the two.
Her God Realm aura locked onto the two as two flowery palms swiftly flew out.
"Do you really think we're pushovers?" roared Xiang Shaoyun with a ruthless look in his eyes. Instantly, he unleashed the Imperial Nether Domain.
In the Imperial Nether Domain, he would be able to deal with Yu Huayan even if she was a God. Yu Huayan's face fell as she hurriedly retreated. However, Xiang Shaoyun was too close, and she wasn't able to escape in time. And thus, she was surrounded by the Imperial Nether Domain.
