I Am Overlord

Chapter 1305: Xue Buyi

Chapter 1305: Xue Buyi

Xiang Shaoyun's conversation with Dong Ziwan attracted a lot of attention.

Xiang Shaoyun ignored everyone's gaze on him as he grabbed Dong Ziwan's shoulders and asked seriously, "Your eyes can't hide from me. You're Dong City's Dong Ziwan!"

"Hehe, yes, I'm Dong Ziwan. But I'm not the same Dong Ziwan you know. Of course, I can still be your friend if you don't mind my ugly face. I can even be your woman if you want. Do you dare to accept me with my face," said Dong Ziwan with an ugly smile on her face.

Xiang Shaoyun answered unhesitatingly, "Fine. From now on, you're my woman."

His words created an uproar.

"No way, this is Xiang Shaoyun's taste in women? This is really surprising."

"Perhaps he has a special fetish? No normal person can stand her face."

"He is really worthy of being the champion. His ability to accept what nobody can is truly admirable."

"I thought both Devil Concubine and Yu Caidie were in love with him? So is he uninterested in beauties and prefers uglies instead?"

"Regular people like us will never be able to understand an expert like him."

...

Xiang Shaoyun heard the countless jeers, but he ignored all of them. His focus was only on Dong Ziwan as he waited for her to admit who she was. He did not know what she had experienced, but he had always viewed her as a good friend. Back when he was still trying to regain the Ziling Sect, he had also gotten involved with many women.

He had never found a chance to return to Dong City, and he had eventually decided to just forget her because he already had too many women around him. But when he saw how she was, his heart ached greatly. He had to do something for her to reduce the guilt he was feeling.

"Haha, are you hearing that? Everyone is laughing at you. Get lost already. I'm not interested in you," said Dong Ziwan as she roared with laughter.

Xiang Shaoyun refused to move. He said, "I don't care what others think. I only care what you think. It doesn't matter how you look. You will still be my woman. Who did this to you? I'll destroy that person!"

He then returned to his seat. He knew that Dong Ziwan needed some time to calm down and think about this. He did not want to pressure her too much. As he walked away, Dong Ziwan turned her head around as tears trailed down her cheeks uncontrollably.

H-he still remembers me! He doesn't mind how I look, thought Dong Ziwan with both joy and sorrow.

Alas, they could no longer return to how they were. Along with her face, her heart had been destroyed as well.

After Tang Zhan finished calling out the top-100 participants, he made the final announcement. "The names I called out are the top-100 devil hunters. They will be rewarded in accordance with their contribution. In a year, all of them will be granted entry into the Saintforce Realm. They will be allowed to train inside for a year."

Next, he personally handed the top-100 participants their rewards. All the rewards were stored in storage rings. Nobody would know what each participant had obtained. However, there was no doubt that the higher one's rank, the better one's reward.

After handing out all the rewards, Tang Zhan officially announced that the Devil Hunting Expedition had ended. Those who hadn't been able to enter the top-100 left with disappointment, but they were also aware that they had no one to blame but themselves for not being skillful enough.

In any case, just surviving the Devil Domain itself was a reward. Many had even earned numerous benefits from the Devil Domain. The contribution points they had earned could also be used to trade for what they wanted.

Xiang Shaoyun did not immediately check what he had received. He first put the storage ring away then went looking for Dong Ziwan. But before he could leave, Xue Buyi blocked his path and said, "It's time I avenge my 18 brothers."

A bloody aura surged out of Xue Buyi, displaying his peak Soul Foundation Realm cultivation level.

"Piss off," said Xiang Shaoyun.

Xue Buyi answered with action. His palm shot toward Xiang Shaoyun's throat at the speed of lightning. Regular peak Sovereigns were incomparable with him in terms of speed. With a frown, Xiang Shaoyun evaded the attack and sent a kick at Xue Buyi's crotch, aiming to turn Xue Buyi into a eunuch.

The viciousness of Xiang Shaoyun's attack was a sign of how much anger he was feeling. As someone on the top-10, Xue Buyi was naturally no weakling. He deftly evaded the attack before unleashing 18 claw attacks at Xiang Shaoyun.

Bloodbone Claw!

The claw attacks flew forth, sending waves of bloody energy toward Xiang Shaoyun. The bloody energy was capable of causing one to involuntarily feel fear. The concentrated claw attacks were incomparably powerful, threatening to tear Xiang Shaoyun into pieces.

Xiang Shaoyun could feel the discomfort the claws were causing him. However, these attacks couldn't even threaten him or influence his will. They only made him more furious.

"All who stand in my path will die!" roared Xiang Shaoyun as he attacked with two powers. He urgently needed to see Dong Ziwan.

Golden Fury!

Two strands of energy swirled together and formed a dreadful attack of red and gold, clashing against the incoming claw attacks. Numerous explosions erupted, sending shockwaves rippling in all directions. The surrounding people hurriedly fled. The two combatants seemed evenly matched as they soared into the sky and started an intense battle.

Xue Buyi utilized astonishing claw attacks as he surrounded Xiang Shaoyun with the power of his peak soul foundation. He seemed infinitely close to the Saint Realm, displaying a strength that could cause one to surrender before even attempting to fight him.

As for Xiang Shaoyun, his fused astral energies were boundlessly powerful. The profundities of powers further increased the might of his attacks as numerous different powers fused and blasted his opponent, creating numerous explosions around them.

In a flash, the two had exchanged over 100 moves. It did not seem like a victor would be decided anytime soon. The onlookers all exclaimed in astonishment.

"This Xiang Shaoyun is capable indeed. As a fourth-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator, he can actually match Xue Buyi evenly. I really wonder who will emerge victorious."

"It feels like they're already as strong as pseudo-Saints. Those in the top-10 really can't be underestimated."

"If Xiang Shaoyun's cultivation level was one or two stages higher, Xue Buyi might not be his match."

"Xue Buyi hasn't even used his blood-soaked cloth. If he uses that, Xiang Shaoyun would be dead for sure."

"I believe Xiang Shaoyun also has his own trump cards. He is, after all, the champion. How would he have obtained so many contribution points otherwise?"
