《I Am Overlord》Chapter 1245: Let's Spar
Advertisement
Yu Caidie had an extraordinary status because the Yu Clan was Western Desert's number one clan. They were an ancient clan that ruled over an entire province. But how about Devil Concubine's status?
Every True Martial Academy disciple knew of her extraordinary status. Even when she had first arrived at the academy, several high-level elders had personally welcomed her. Even the deputy principal was alarmed by her arrival. At that time, she was only a Dragon Ascension Realm cultivator. One could only imagine what kind of a background she had for her arrival to be such a big deal.
Xiang Shaoyun knew Devil Concubine well. She was someone who would always offend someone when she opened her mouth. He hurriedly said, "Alright, stop bickering. More devils are coming. We need to leave."
He had successfully shifted their attention, causing them to focus on leaving. They didn't go too far away and stopped after finding a safe place. They only needed to give Yu Caidie and Yu Ziyang some time to recuperate. At the temporary shelter, Xiang Shaoyun used the Secret Reversal Technique to help accelerate their recovery.
Among the injured, Yu Caidie recovered the fastest as she also had her own recovery secret technique. Her technique was none other than the phoenixes' technique Rebirth in Flame. It was even more effective than Xiang Shaoyun's Secret Reversal Technique.
Xiang Shaoyun would only be able to match Rebirth in Flame's healing speed if his comprehension of the profundity of life deepened. He could clearly sense that Yu Caidie was much more outstanding than her past life's self.
After her recovery, Yu Caidie walked up to Xiang Shaoyun and asked, "In the past, you promised that I was the only woman you loved. But now, you are surrounded by women, and I'm reduced to a mistress. Do you perhaps think that I'm not worthy of you?"

Xiang Shaoyun rubbed his head awkwardly and said, "Th-this is an accident. Accident!"
He had a feeling that he was a different person from his past life's self. Although he had his past life's memories, he behaved in a completely different manner.
"Perhaps time has indeed changed everything," said Yu Caidie with a sigh.
Xiang Shaoyun also sighed as he said, "You're right. We can no longer return to the past." His face turned solemn as he continued, "Regardless, I still love you. You're still my woman. Nobody can take you away from me!"
He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and pulled her into his embrace. Devil Concubine was about to say something, but she eventually looked away. The envy in her heart grew. She had always been possessive. A man had finally caught her eyes, but that man was actually hugging a different woman right in front of her. It was completely understandable why she wouldn't feel too good about it.
"Dream on. Unless you drive all your women away, don't even think of taking my sister as your wife," said Yu Ziyang. He looked at Devil Concubine flatteringly and said, "Devil Concubine, this playboy doesn't suit you. Why don't you be with me instead? I've been in love with you ever since I saw you. Wouldn't it be perfect if the two of us become partners while my sister stays with him?"
Xiang Shaoyun was rendered speechless. He had seen a lot of shameless people, but this was his very first time encountering a shameless brother-in-law. This brother-in-law was actually trying to steal his woman right in front of him.
"If you can defeat him, that might be possible," said Devil Concubine provocatively, still angry.
Yu Ziyang had not turned mad from lovesickness. He had personally witnessed Xiang Shaoyun's strength during the battle earlier. Challenging Xiang Shaoyun was simply asking for a beating.

"Xiang Shaoyun, did you hear what I said earlier? Let me have Devil Concubine, and you can have my sister," Yu Ziyang offered confidently.
Yu Caidie glared at Yu Ziyang unhappily and said, "Brother, how can you act like that?"
"Caidie, for your brother's happiness, also for your own happiness, you should persuade your man to agree," said Yu Ziyang.
Xiang Shaoyun said, "Yu Ziyang, I still remember that we once agreed to have a spar. Why don't we do it now?"
As he said that, he let go of Yu Caidie and walked toward Yu Ziyang. So what if this was his brother-in-law? He would still beat up this brother-in-law if necessary.
"Y-you're trying to challenge me while I'm ridden with injuries? Do you think I'm really scared of you? What's the worst that can happen? Merely death!" said Yu Ziyang righteously.
Xiang Shaoyun didn't even care as he continued walking forward.
Yu Ziyang finally grew timid. He shouted to Yu Caidie, "Sister, you are not married to him yet! You can't side with an outsider against your brother! Don't you see that I'm seriously injured? Stop this fellow. I'll spar with him after I'm fully healed."
But when he saw that Yu Caidie was keeping her mouth shut, he hurriedly turned and fled. He was really afraid that Xiang Shaoyun would beat him up. That would be too embarrassing.
Xiang Shaoyun did not give chase. He turned around and said seriously, "Caidie, Devil Concubine, I need to tell you about my current situation. You can decide for yourself whether you want to continue following me. I don't intend to force you."
He had suddenly changed his mind. He had always viewed Yu Caidie as his woman, regardless of whether it was in his past life or current life. But everything changed in this life. Both he and Yu Caidie had changed. They both held their previous memories, but they were also completely different individuals than their previous selves.
It was impossible for them to return to how they were. Xiang Shaoyun thus decided to give them the freedom to choose. It was pointless to keep dragging this on. He started listing all the women around him. He even told them about his son, Tuoba Lingtian. He hid nothing from them.
Yu Caidie's face turned unsightly. Devil Concubine had a much better reaction in comparison because Xiang Shaoyun had already told her that he was a married man.
However, Devil Concubine was still furious upon learning that he had so many women. She shouted, "What a womanizer!"
Xiang Shaoyun shrugged helplessly and said, "I can't help it. I don't want to hurt any of them. So while you still have the chance to make your choice, do it."
"If I make all of them disappear from your life, will you hate me?" asked Devil Concubine.
"No, but I'll kill you," said Xiang Shaoyun as his eyes flickered with a sharp radiance.
Since he had acknowledged all his women, he wouldn't give any of them up. Thus, he had to protect them.
"You're heartless," said Devil Concubine. "You're a fickle man, but also someone with a sense of responsibility. I don't think I have a choice, as I've fallen for you."
It was now Yu Caidie's turn to make her choice.

Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met. His eyes swept about the trees, and he could feel an instinctual urge to drag himself away. He knew what this forest was, and here, he would find his salvation. Or his doom. The voices behind him grew closer, and among the noise was the faint clanging of steel. Gritting his teeth, he ousted all the will he had from the depths of his soul and stepped forth into the forest. Damned he be by the Gods if they wanted him dead. -new synopsis 10/6/2016 ---------- A new chapter would be released every friday. And the quality of writing should improve each time, hopefully.

Exhausted and bleeding, it was only a matter of time until he passed out. By then, his fate would be sealed and he would be no more. Thus, he had to make a decision that might just save his life. It was a gamble, he knew, but he had no He ran into the forbidden forest where no man had ever come back. He headed within, intending to scare his pursuers away. But they persisted in their chase, hounding him down until he was forced to take a step of no return. There, in the darkest depths of the forest, was the ghastly fog and behind him where men who wanted his head. Left with nothing else, he stepped forth and crossed the boundary of the living and the dead. Henceforth, his fate was forever changed. No longer just a scholar, but something more…
