I Am Overlord

Chapter 1711: The Godly Talented Young Master is Unequaled

Ling Ziruo might be a woman, but she was as ruthless as anyone in a battle.
Carrying a moon in each hand, she unleashed terrifying slashing attacks upon Xiang Shaoyun.
If Xiang Shaoyun was even a tiny bit slow in his response, he would lose his head.
Even with his rapid dodging, he still had several strands of his hair cut off.

One could only imagine how thrilling the fight was.
In a single spurt, she increased the intensity of her attacks, successfully suppressing Xiang Shaoyun.
Her cultivation level was far higher than Xiang Shaoyun's.
With the prowess of her physique, she had gained enough strength to contend against even a ninth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator.

Xiang Shaoyun was only a fourth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator.
He could contend against those in the eighth stage, but the ninth stage was beyond him.
Of course, it wasn't like the gap was insurmountable.

Xiang Shaoyun stirred his devil pearl and mustered all its devilish energy, unleashing an eruption at the same time his astral energy erupted.
The two energies blended together while his three lifetimes of battle intent reinforced his body, granting him an unimaginable level of strength.

He swung his fists again and again, unleashing attacks as destructive as Ling Ziruo's attacks.
If Ling Ziruo did not take her trump card out, she would no longer be able to keep Xiang Shaoyun suppressed.
After a while, the two finally stopped.

“Lady Ling is truly amazing.
You have Shaoyun's admiration,” said Xiang Shaoyun with his hands cupped.

A regular sixth-stage God would have been killed facing such attacks from him.
Ling Ziruo's strength had given him an estimate of the strength of the other young Gods.
He could imagine that there definitely would be existences even stronger than Ling Ziruo among the candidates.

“Young Master Xiang is too kind.
You have a lower cultivation level, yet I still can't defeat you.
After a couple years, I will no longer be your match,” said Ling Ziruo candidly.

She was speaking the truth.
Xiang Shaoyun's strength had surpassed her expectations.
If he was at fifth-stage Rebirth Realm, she would definitely not be his match.
She felt somewhat disheartened at the realization.
After all, she had never been defeated by a peer before.
Thus, the thought of losing to someone a stage lower than her was hard to swallow.

Xiang Shaoyun smiled.
“I wonder if Lady Ling is interested in forming an alliance with me?”

“You're visiting everyone because you're searching for allies?” asked Ling Ziruo, somewhat amused.

Xiang Shaoyun nodded.
“Sure, the deputy guild master position is important, but fighting the alien invaders is even more important.
We should unite against external enemies, not waste our strength against each other.”

After leaving the Heart Asking Hall, Xiang Shaoyun's mindset had changed.
He now carried a sense of righteousness in his heart.

Ling Ziruo had a look of admiration as she said, “If that really is what you think, Ziruo will be more than happy to agree.
However, who would be the leader of the alliance?”

“As allies, it is more important to provide each other with mutual assistance and advance and retreat together.
It is better for us to keep our independence.
It wouldn't be late to decide on a leader after the fight for the young guild master position is over,” said Xiang Shaoyun.

“Sounds good.
In that case, we're allies from now on.
I'm in your care!” agreed Ling Ziruo without wasting any time.

Xiang Shaoyun was surprised to see her agree so easily.
His view of her improved considerably, and he now viewed her as an amazing individual.
He did not stay in house number 8 for long.
After a short chat, the two separated.

Ling Ziruo escorted Xiang Shaoyun all the way to the front door.
Standing behind her were the nine palace ladies.
Such an escort was enough to showcase the importance they attached to him.

“My goodness.
Young Master couldn't have conquered all the women here, right? He's much more incredible than Master when he was young!” exclaimed the red freak.

“Yes, yes, the godly talented Young Master is unequaled.
If I were a woman, I would also be in love with his noble visage.
These women have good taste!” said the green freak with a nod.

“I would fall for Young Master even if I'm a man! He's too perfect!” said the blue freak bashfully.

All the people present had incredible hearing.
Because the three weren't even trying to hide their conversation, the palace ladies all blushed.

“If Young Master Xiang can win the position, Ziruo will definitely fall for you,” said Ling Ziruo earnestly.

Xiang Shaoyun and the three freaks were dumbstruck.
Ling Ziruo was peerless and magnificent.
No ordinary person could compare with her.
Thus, those words were the biggest sign of her acknowledgment of Xiang Shaoyun.
Those who were spying on the encounter also heard her words, and it wouldn't be long before their effects were felt.

Many of the young Gods present were Ling Ziruo's long-time admirers.
Thus, they were unable to accept that she would give such a promise to Xiang Shaoyun before they could win her heart.

Xiang Shaoyun merely smiled and said nothing as he left with the three freaks.
Sure, Ling Ziruo was so attractive one wouldn't be able to reject her.
However, Xiang Shaoyun did not intend to get involved in any romance for the time being.

After three days, a summons finally came for all the young Gods to gather at the guild's main hall.
The two deputies and the God Realm elders would have an audience with the young Gods.

Xiang Shaoyun and all the young Gods left the housing area.
They had been focused on silently cultivating, and they had made gains of various levels, displaying their outstanding talents.

After drinking three cups of tea from Ling Ziruo, Xiang Shaoyun had fully consolidated his fourth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivation level.
He had also formed his battle intent of three lives.
As a result, his combat strength had increased by a large margin.

Xiang Shaoyun and Ling Ziruo walked side by side as though a pair of immortal lovers, inviting envy from all who looked at them.
A man and woman approached Xiang Shaoyun.
The two were comparable to Xiang Shaoyun and Ling Ziruo in terms of looks.
They were none other than Yu Tianhuang and Yu Caidie.

Since the two were here, it was obvious they had also passed the test.
Yu Tianhuang was a heroic man with the symbol of a blazing phoenix on his forehead.
It made him look incredibly noble.
His tranquil gaze landed on Xiang Shaoyun.
It looked as though he was either studying or judging him.
In any case, he wasn't showing Xiang Shaoyun any sort of goodwill.

As for Yu Caidie, she walked over and stood at Xiang Shaoyun's other side obediently.
She casually wrapped her arms around his arm and said, “Overlord, I'll walk with you.”

Ling Ziruo narrowed her eyes as she looked at Yu Caidie.
It was unknown what she was thinking.

“Sure.
I still have something I need to give you anyway,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a nod.

“Caidie, come back!” commanded Yu Tianhuang coldly.

“I told you.
The moment I meet Overlord, I'll return to him.
You don't have to be bothered with me,” said Yu Caidie resolutely.

“Looks like you really have abandoned your clan.
I will take back everything you have!” said Yu Tianhuang with a ruthless glint in his eyes.

“What are you going to do to my woman?” asked Xiang Shaoyun coldly as he took a step forth.
