I Am Overlord

Chapter 1410: Imperial Dusk City

The restaurant erupted with sounds of discussion after Xiang Shaoyun vanished. They finally realized that the so-called Xiang Shaoyun was a fake, while the stronger youngster was probably the actual Xiang Shaoyun. They felt greatly regretful for failing to befriend such an outstanding young man.

At this time, Xiang Shaoyun was already on the city streets, strolling around in a carefree manner. This kind of feeling where he wasn't rejected by his own was what he loved the most. But before he could go far, he sensed two people tailing him. The two were none other than the beauties who were with the fake Xiang Shaoyun earlier.

"Why are you following me? Are you trying to get revenge for that fellow from earlier?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.

The two were beautiful and elegant, both Dragon Ascension Realm cultivators. From their cultivation, one could see that they both came from a decent background.

The woman called Huang Yiyi said, "Excuse me, are you really Xiang Shaoyun?"

Xiang Shaoyun smiled and said, "That doesn't matter. Just come at me if you want to avenge him. If not, this is where we separate."

The woman in blue smiled and said, "We only want to thank you for exposing the fake Xiang Shaoyun. I'm Zhong Ling from Wind City's Zhong Clan. May I have your name?"

The woman called Zhong Ling seemed to be the more polite one. Instead of pushing for Xiang Shaoyun to admit his identity, she asked for his name.

Xiang Shaoyun smiled. "Hello. I'm never afraid to admit who I am. I'm precisely Xiang Shaoyun. Of course, you can consider me a fake Xiang Shaoyun as well. If there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave."

"What's the rush, Mr. Xiang? We're your admirers!" pledged Zhong Ling tenderly.

"That's right. It is rumored that you reign above all your peers. Both of us are willing to become your companions and stay with you until our deaths," said Huang Yiyi.

Xiang Shaoyun waved his hand and showed them a carefree back as he said, "Thank you, but this is more than I deserve."

When he finished his words, he vanished into nothingness. The two couldn't even sense his presence anymore.

They stood blankly with deep disappointment in their hearts. Such a youth had boundless prospects. It would be great fortune for them if they could stay by his side. Unfortunately, they were unable to pique his interest. As for Xiang Shaoyun, he had arrived at Imperial Dusk City using Wind City's teleportation formation.

The Righteous Buddhist Sect had branch temples within the various dynasties, including in the Dusk Dynasty's Imperial Dusk City. The branch at Imperial Dusk City, in particular, was one of their seven major branches. One must obtain the acknowledgment of one of these branches in order to head to the main temple.

Imperial Dusk City was the Dusk Dynasty's capital and one of the Central Region's 10 major cities. The city occupied a large territory, filled with gorgeous and majestic ancient buildings. The streets within the city were wide, and powerful cultivators mounted on demonic beasts were frequently seen in the city. As a whole, the city looked incredibly imposing.

The Dusk Emperor was a terrific emperor. It was said that this emperor had cultivated the Divine Imperial Dusk Sutra to the eighth stage and was a true Great Saint. Each Dusk Emperor who had cultivated this technique to the ninth stage was an exceptionally powerful God Realm expert. These people would then abdicate the throne and become the grand emperor instead.

At present, the younger generations of the Imperial Dusk Clan were growing up one after another. The first prince and the second prince had also cultivated up to the seventh stage of the Divine Imperial Dusk Sutra and were powerful Saints. Both were also popular candidates to be the next Sunset Emperor.

It was also said that the third prince was unwilling to fall behind his two brothers. After entering the Dragon Phoenix Academy, the third prince had cultivated hard. He had reached the sixth-stage Sovereign Realm and would probably return to the dynasty before long. As for the other princes, they were temporarily too young to compete for the throne.

Xiang Shaoyun knew that both Huang Tianji and Huang Xiaoyue came from the Dusk Dynasty. He had some grudges with the two and only hoped to not attract more trouble in the city.

Unfortunately, the moment he arrived, a group of riders rushed toward him. They were all mounted on dragonblood horses and clad in golden armor, looking incredibly majestic. They were imperial guards, granted with the authority to punish and even execute anyone they deemed fit within the dynasty.

The group of 49 riders arrived before Xiang Shaoyun. The leader looked at Xiang Shaoyun from high above and asked, "Are you Xiang Shaoyun?"

Xiang Shaoyun frowned and ignored the leader. He wasn't too pleased with the leader's attitude.

"I'm asking you a question! Are you Xiang Shaoyun?" shouted the leader.

The 48 riders behind him unleashed their imposing auras. All 49 auras combined into a heavy pressure that caused the surrounding pedestrians to flee far away.

"Who are you to question this overlord?" replied Xiang Shaoyun unyieldingly.

"Audacious! Do you know that we're the imperial guards? This is our turf. When we ask a question, answer! Otherwise, you will be charged with disrespecting the dynasty and will be punished with death!" said the leader in an overbearing manner.

The leader was quite strong. He was a peak Sovereign while those behind him were all Sovereigns as well. They were probably the elites of the imperial guards. Even in the Central Region where spiritual energy was thick and draconic aura was plentiful, it still wasn't easy to form a group this powerful. Only a powerful dynasty like the Dusk Dynasty could form one.

"Scram!" Xiang Shaoyun gave a simple reply.

He then released his devilish energy. A powerful Devil Saint aura erupted from his body and turned into a storm that blasted all the riders away. Not one of them could remain on their mounts.

"Audacious! You dare attack the imperial guards? You better submit now, or you won't be able to leave the Imperial Dusk City alive!" roared the leader furiously.

Pa!

He was answered with a slap across his face. A red palm print was left on his face, and several of his teeth were sent flying away. The leader had not expected Xiang Shaoyun to attack. That was no different than slapping the entire imperial clan across the face.

"Scram, or I'll cripple all of you!" said Xiang Shaoyun as a ruthless aura erupted from him.

It did not matter if these people were here to look for trouble, as he found their attitude annoying.

"Very well. Stay here if you have the guts. You will regret this," said the leader as he hopped back on his mount and left with the rest of the imperial guards.

Looking at their departing backs, Xiang Shaoyun seemed to have understood something. He thought to himself, Looks like some trouble can't be avoided no matter what. Very well. I'll see for myself if my master's name is enough to suppress an imperial teacher.
