I Am Overlord

Chapter 1431: Four Night Saints

The Righteous Buddhist Sect, a massive sect, used righteous aura and was among the most righteous sects in the world. They had trained countless disciples and were responsible for propagating the teachings of Buddha. Countless vajras and arhats had risen from their ranks. Now that a new entrance to the Devil Domain had formed, the Righteous Buddhist Sect would not stay idle.

After confirming that Xiang Shaoyun wasn't a devil, the abbot hoped that Xiang Shaoyun could participate in the war against the devils. He had not imagined that Xiang Shaoyun would care so little about the invasion.

As far as Xiang Shaoyun was concerned, the war between humanity and the devils wasn't something he alone could change. Only when he reached the very apex of cultivation would he possess the strength to stop the war.

For now, he only wanted to complete his current goals. After getting his family together, his next goal would be to reach the apex of cultivation and protect those he cared about. That was all he wanted. He was no hero, and he definitely did not have the ambition to become a messiah that would save the world.

The abbot did not stop Xiang Shaoyun from leaving. He only sighed inwardly, This crisis concerns all humanity. I guess there is no need for me to put my focus on this one person. Amitabha.

As soon as Xiang Shaoyun left the temple, a group of people started approaching him. With one look, Xiang Shaoyun saw the first prince mounted atop a dragonhorse. Xiang Shaoyun did not try moving away, as he had a feeling that they were here for him.

"Shaoyun, I finally found you!" said the first prince in a cordial manner. He then leaped off his mount, behaving in a manner so humble he was like a different person.

Xiang Shaoyun cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, first prince. How may I help you?"

"I come bearing good news! Shaoyun, please accept the imperial edict of the Dusk Dynasty!" said the first prince in an excited manner.

Xiang Shaoyun frowned and said, "Just tell me what you need. I'm not a member of your dynasty, so I won't be accepting any of your imperial edicts."

He had already made it clear that he wouldn't join the Dusk Dynasty. A day had barely passed, but they were already issuing him imperial edicts. He was losing his patience with them.

The first prince's expression turned gloomy, and the guard beside the prince shouted, "Audacious! Kneel down and accept the imperial edict!"

Xiang Shaoyun's gaze landed on the guard, and his divine dao eyes shone with a dazzling radiance. A massive pressure struck the guard, sending him flying and coughing up blood.

"I can kneel to the heavens, to the world, and to my parents. Nobody else can make this overlord kneel," replied Xiang Shaoyun with a sonorous voice.

As of this moment, the first prince found himself lacking the courage to even meet Xiang Shaoyun's gaze. A sense of shame rose within him as he started developing a certain hatred for Xiang Shaoyun.

"Xiang Shaoyun, the dynasty decided to bestow upon you a marriage with Princess Huang Xiaoyue. Upon accepting the edict, this matter will be announced to the world. You will then become our dynasty's son-in-law. If you refuse the edict, it will be viewed as a sign of disrespect to our dynasty. Consider your actions carefully," said the first prince loudly.

Xiang Shaoyun roared with laughter as he said, "Haha, it doesn't matter what your emperor has to say concerning my marriage. Only my decision matters in this."

He then ignored the group and spun around. With a flicker, he reached far away as he headed outside the city. He no longer intended to stay in the city. Everyone here seemed to be testing his patience.

Unless a God Realm expert personally made a move, nobody could stop Xiang Shaoyun from leaving.

When the first prince saw Xiang Shaoyun leaving, he couldn't help but curse, "What an arrogant bastard!"

Very few people could show him such disrespect in the Dusk Dynasty. He was naturally furious to be treated with such disrespect by Xiang Shaoyun. But so what if he was angered? With Xiang Shaoyun's strength, neither the first prince nor his people could do anything to Xiang Shaoyun. The first prince could only swallow his anger.

After leaving the city, Xiang Shaoyun slowed down and soared high into the sky. He could sense that the four people tailing him previously had reappeared. High in the sky, he stopped and said, "You have been following me for so long. It's about time for you to show yourself."

Four people stepped out of thin air. Surprisingly, all four looked the same. They were even dressed the same and were all Great Saints. A group like this could not be underestimated no matter where they went. If news that they were going after Xiang Shaoyun together, Xiang Shaoyun's fame would probably be further elevated.

Four Night Saints!

They were the top-tier Saints trained by the Imperial Teacher Residence. They rarely showed themselves and spent most of their time handling the dirty affairs of the Imperial Teacher Residence.

Their current mission was to kill Xiang Shaoyun and avenge Hua Ruren.

"Four Great Saints? I suppose only the imperial clan can send out a group like this," said Xiang Shaoyun.

"You'll have plenty of time to find out in the afterlife. Four Divisions Formation, suppress!" said one of them.

At that command, the four Great Saints released their auras, manifesting a tiger, a dragon, a bird, and a turtle in the air. Space was sealed with the powerful aura surging toward Xiang Shaoyun.

"Yet another rare formation. Interesting," said Xiang Shaoyun with a look of excitement.

During his previous battle in the Righteous Buddhist Sect, he faced the Devil Subduing Formation. Now, he faced the Four Divisions Formation. His battle intent had been thoroughly provoked.

During his battle in the temple, he had only derived some satisfaction in his final exchange with the Devil Subduing Vajra. He had used his devil cultivation for the rest of the battle and hadn't been able to fully satisfy his battle intent. With his god body and second-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivation, he could easily match Great Saints when utilizing primal inception energy. And now, he wanted to fight to his heart's content against these four.

The four beasts started revolving in the air, creating one phenomenon after another. Four different Great Saint powers pressed on toward Xiang Shaoyun. Soaring dragon, leaping tiger, crying bird, and valiant turtle revolved, creating a four-colored attack that could easily kill peak Great Saints.

The Four Night Saints were actually quadruplets. They were born with interlinked minds, and each cultivated a different power that corresponded to the four divisions of the twenty-eight constellations. The previous imperial teacher had personally trained them, helping them reach the Great Saint Realm and master the Four Divisions Formation. Just the fact that all four were deployed together showed how much they wanted Xiang Shaoyun dead.

Shrouded in a thick layer of primal inception energy, Xiang Shaoyun's divine dao eyes shone. The auras of dragons and tigers surged from his body as his hair whipped about. Gathering his strength in his fist, he threw out an exceptionally destructive punch.

Primal inception energy clashed against the Four Divisions Formation, causing the sky itself to tremble. Space collapsed, and spatial storms wreaked havoc everywhere. This was an extremely dreadful collision, one that could only be described with the term world-shaking. The four divisions connected with the heavens, while the cosmos destroyed the dao!
