《I Am Overlord》Chapter 1269: Behead
Advertisement
Xiang Shaoyun's Imperial Nether Domain had fused with his soul foundation. This was something no other Imperial Nether Clan member could replicate. Ming Pan had never expected there to be other attacks coming from the domain, and the barrage caught him by complete surprise. He reacted nimbly and quickly entered a defensive mode while retreating. However, his domain had started to shrink from the bombardment.
Xiang Shaoyun took the chance to press on. His domain revolved and sent out numerous attacks formed of his soul marks, bombarding both Ming Pan and his domain. Fists, palms, swords, sabers...all sorts of attacks flew out of the domain, each with a might to threaten a Saint.
Ming Pan cut a sorry figure as he tried his best to defend. He couldn't protect both himself and his domain at the same time. The stream of attacks forced him to retreat again and again.
"I thought you were really strong. Why are you running?" said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile.
Within the range of his domain, he was the supreme master. He could transform all his soul marks into attacks with a mere thought. Unless one was much stronger than him, one wouldn't be a match for him in this situation.
Ming Pan was no weakling, but his Imperial Nether Domain was far inferior to Xiang Shaoyun's. He helplessly withdrew his domain. Just as he was about to be enveloped by Xiang Shaoyun's domain, he flew into the air, no longer daring to face Xiang Shaoyun head on.
Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn't spare him so easily. He chased into the air and spread out his domain, attempting to trap Ming Pan within it. Ming Pan couldn't leave the colosseum, as that would be considered his defeat. Left with no choice, he drew his weapon and charged toward Xiang Shaoyun with all his strength.

As a third-stage Devil Saint, his strength was not to be underestimated. His attack caused space itself to collapse. Not even Xiang Shaoyun's domain could fully envelop him. If this continued, Xiang Shaoyun would really be helpless against him.
However, Xiang Shaoyun was determined to use Ming Pan to establish his dominance. He naturally wouldn't give Ming Pan any chances. His soul clone flew out and turned invisible. Because everyone was focused on his domain, nobody noticed the soul clone. Not even Ming Pan noticed anything.
Although Xiang Shaoyun's soul had a slightly lower cultivation level than Ming Pan, his soul was powerful enough to not fear an opponent of this level. It moved swiftly and instantly arrived behind Ming Pan. With his sharp senses, Ming Pan immediately sensed something. Unfortunately, it was too late.
A heavy kick struck his buttocks. Along with a sharp pain on his rear, Ming Pan was sent crashing into the ground. It was at this time that Xiang Shaoyun fully enveloped Ming Pan in his domain. Numerous chains and soul marks blasted Ming Pan from all directions.
Ming Pan reacted in a way that befitted his status as a Devil Saint. An odd weapon and a shield appeared in his hands. He swung his weapon in all directions while protecting himself with the shield.
"The Imperial Nether Domain is the unique ability of our clan, yet you had changed it into something like this? You're truly a mongrel! Die!" roared Ming Pan, infuriated. Numerous attacks flew out of his weapon as his boundless devilish energy surged everywhere, attempting to break the domain around him.
As a member of the Imperial Nether Clan, Ming Pan wasn't suppressed too badly by the domain. Thus, he was still able to unleash powerful attacks even when trapped inside it.

Xiang Shaoyun's domain transformed into a battlefield as an intense fight raged on within.
Unfortunately for Ming Pan, Xiang Shaoyun was nevertheless still the master of this domain. With the addition of his soul clone, it wasn't too much of a challenge for him to take Ming Pan's life.
While suppressing Ming Pan with his soul marks, Xiang Shaoyun sent his soul clone out. Instantly, a destructive attack arrived from an unexpected angle. In the domain, Xiang Shaoyun's soul could freely move around. Ming Pan had no way of stopping the clone. And thus, the clone gave him a beating and broke his defense, letting the numerous soul mark attacks strike him.
"No!" Ming Pan roared in disbelief. He couldn't accept his defeat, and he struggled to use his second ability. Unfortunately, he wasn't given a chance; the chains shackled his entire body, rendering him completely helpless as the rain of attacks continued landing on him.
"Since you intend to step on me and my mother, you can die," said Xiang Shaoyun. He raised his saber and brought it down toward Ming Pan's neck.
At the same time, he withdrew his domain, allowing everyone to witness the execution.
"Stop!" Ming Abi shouted.
Shouting was all he dared to do. This was a fair battle. He wouldn't dare to enter the colosseum, as the clan would punish anyone who dared to interrupt a fight in the colosseum.
With pure devil blood flowing in his veins, Xiang Shaoyun was no longer the same person. He showed no hesitation as he decisively sliced off Ming Pan's head. The pupils of all the observers shrank.
"This kid..." Ming He felt a chill creep up his spine. He had a feeling that if it wasn't for Ming Cigeng's protection, he would have suffered the same fate.
"This is the price for challenging this prince," declared Xiang Shaoyun coldly as he stared at Ming Abi. He then pointed at Ming Abi and said loudly, "Like I said, you're next after him. Come and die as well."
His challenge alarmed everyone.
"I-is this nineteenth prince mad? He dares to challenge Lord Abi?"
"Even the fifteenth prince was killed so easily. It's not surprising that he dares to challenge Lord Abi. Looks like a good show is about to unfold."
"This nineteenth prince seems really murderous. Even the fifteenth prince was killed. But that suits the temperament of our clan. No wonder the Nether Monarch looks so favorably upon him. He has a bright future in the clan."
"Too bad he's half human. It would be perfect if he was a pureblood."
"How ignorant. Lord Abi is much stronger than the fifteenth prince. This nineteenth prince is seeking death."

The Legend of Ghost
This is a quick novella origin story to one of fan-favorite characters in the ZERO universe, Sam Dobbs, a.k.a. Slade Gardner, a.k.a. the Ghost. I wrote it for current ZERO series fans, after many insistent, fervent, teary-eyed demands. Still, I think it pretty much works as a stand-alone, so I'll post it here. (He gets the name Ghost later, not as part of this story...this is just the why he decided to do what he did, being slightly insane and all.) Lots of easter eggs for current fans. 15k words total, chapters will be approx. 2.5k each. Oh, and if you get turned off by crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials being crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials, this isn't the story for you. ;)

The Girl Named Rino
Oh. Hello. I didn't see you come in. No, don't worry. I don't need to hear your name. I already know what it is. I also knew that you'd come up at around this time. But, at the same time, I also didn't know. It's very hard to put into words - but that's what happens when you become the Chaos God. Your psyche gets messed up, big time. That's even more so for me, who was already warped enough to confuse reality with imagination - and, even make the rest of the universe believe that it was so. But, enough about me. Let's talk about you. You seem to come from a very far away land. It's faint, but your presence is there - in a relatively primitive planet. No wonder, no one wanted to stay in, or conquer your region of the universe - there's nothing worth controlling there. Your existence, much like your entire solar system, also seems to be pretty insignificant. Tell me, is your race capable of destroying your own world? Oh, you're already well along the way? Global Warming? Pollution? Overpopulation? Nuclear weapons? Wow... it's been many millenia since I'd last heard of such ancient concepts from someone who is actually living through it. Still, good job getting that far. That means that your world is now, at least, worth considering as a possible place to install a World System. If I find the time, I'll try surveying it. You can just thank me, later. Oh wait! What kind of person am I, not even offering my guest any hospitality. I'm ashamed. Please, take a seat. What would you like? I have everything the multiverse has to offer, whatever it is you want - I can get. Ah! After we talk, would you mind, if I asked you to do me a tiny favor? There's this girl, I want to keep tabs on. She's in one of the Worlds that I preside over, it's called Aiarthe. But, for some reason, I can't see her - not directly, at least. All I need you to do, is check up on her from time to time. Whether you do it as a pure spectator or through someone else's eyes, is entirely up to you. Really!? You would!? Wow! Thanks! You really did me, a huge solid there! For agreeing so quickly, how about I get started on surveying that planet of yours, right now!? You can help yourself, to anything in the fridge! Well, see ya!
