I Am Overlord

Chapter 677: Xiang Shaoyun Leaves Seclusion

When Yu Caidie first joined the academy, her cultivation level wasn't exactly high, but she had still been able to become part of the 10 freaks due to her rapid advancement, young age, and impressive capability to punch above her weight.

That was the reason for her to rank so highly among the disciples. Now that it had been about two years since these disciples had joined, many of them had advanced greatly. Those who were already Dragon Ascension Realm cultivators had increased their stages, while those who weren't had entered the realm. Only some followers and some oddities were still stuck in the Skysoar Realm.

As for Yu Caidie, she had reached peak fourth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm and was only one step away from the fifth-stage. With her current strength, she was capable of fighting regular peak Emperors. From that, it was evident that there was a reason she was ranked top 10.

Even Han Chenfei, Xiao Xie, and the others who were fifth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm cultivators were ranked lower than her. Some said that she had a nine-star physique, some claimed she had a high-grade eight-star physique, and some claimed that her Yu Clan bloodline had reverted to the purity of her ancestors. However, none knew which was true. Only a small number of people in the academy knew the truth. Her visit to 1 Dragon Villa was extremely thought provoking.

"Holy Maiden Yu, it has been a while." Tang Longfei went out and greeted her in excitement.

Back then, he was also part of her entourage to the Devil Domain. At that time, he still carried a lot of imaginations for her. But now, even after he had grown in strength, Yu Caidie was still someone he could only look up to. That, coupled with the existence of Xiang Shaoyun, made him forget every illusion he used to have for her.

Yu Caidie nodded and said, "It has been a while, Brother Tang. Is Shaoyun here?"

"He's here, but he is currently in seclusion due to his injuries," Tang Longfei said.

"Xiao Xie had injured him right? I heard of that," Yu Caidie said. "Can I wait here for him?"

"Yes, of course you can. Please come in," Tang Longfei quickly invited.

And just like that, Yu Caidie entered 1 Dragon Villa.

Her arrival shocked the Overlord Legion. Huang Tianji, Huang Xiaoyue, and Han Chenfei were astonished. They recalled the declaration Xiang Shaoyun had made before, claiming that Yu Caidie was his woman. Now, with Yu Caidie's visit, was that declaration true?

Yu Caidie and Han Chenfei were the top-ranked women of the academy. Now, both of them were waiting in 1 Dragon Villa. One could say that just by being there, they enriched the villa's environment considerably.

For some reason, their presence caused the Overlord Legion members to feel pride as they all mused inwardly, The overlord really doesn't disappoint. He's even able to get the owners of the first two Phoenix Villas.

After Tang Longfei finished welcoming Yu Caidie's arrival, an academy elder, Xiao Wei, arrived as well.

Everyone was alarmed when they saw him. They quickly saluted him, "Greetings, elder."

In the academy, each elder occupied a high position and possessed considerable power. Armed with the authority to accept any disciple as a personal disciple, they enjoyed deep respect from many disciples. Since Xiao Wei had suddenly appeared, was this a hint that Xiang Shaoyun was his personal disciple?

"What are you bunch of kids doing here? Don't you have to cultivate?" Xiao Wei asked after scanning the crowd.

"Elder Xiao, we're here to visit Xiang Shaoyun," Huang Tianji replied.

Most of the disciples present lacked confidence when facing Xiao Wei, but Huang Tianji, with his noble status, wasn't as affected. Xiao Wei's gaze first landed on Huang Tianji before he noticed Huang Xiaoyue, Yu Caidie, and Han Chenfei. He raised his eyebrows and said, "All of you are here? Are you here to challenge Xiang Shaoyun?"

In his opinion, these people definitely weren't here to join the Overlord Legion.

"No, we're his friends," Huang Tianji hurriedly explained.

"Hehe, looks like that kid is quite popular, after all," said Xiao Wei. "Alright, you may disperse. I need to discuss something with Xiang Shaoyun. It's not like you will help him by waiting here. You should continue focusing on your cultivation instead. What's the point of getting into pointless factional struggles all the time?"

The Overlord Legion members did not dare to slight him, so they all agreed and dispersed. Only Tang Longfei, Lady Shura, Zhuge Zhantian, and Ma Qihao remained. They couldn't understand why so many visitors had come. Were these people here after hearing of Xiang Shaoyun's injuries?

Meanwhile, Xiang Shaoyun, who was still in the cultivation room, had no idea that so many visitors had arrived. Since leaving the Castle of Darkness, he hadn't gotten any chance to properly recuperate. He had even suffered a punch from Huang Xiaoyue, causing his breathing to be in complete disarray. He almost lost control of his energy circulation.

Of course, Yu Yuchen's kick was the most fatal. Even after using the two drops of the healing liquid he had, he still couldn't quickly heal up the injuries from that kick. He needed some extra time to properly rest so he could recover. historical

He refined several drops of lightning liquid and emperor-grade spring liquid, nourishing his injuries over and over again. Gradually, he started recovering.

After stabilizing his injuries, he used many spirit crystals and spread the energy into all his stars except the dark star, trying his best to shorten the gap between the dark star and his other stars.

He finally understood that without relying on external help to increase his draconic aura, the only way he could do so was by waiting for his stars to overflow with energy before transforming the excess energy into draconic aura, increasing his cultivation level.

After absorbing the dark origin energy, if he couldn't quickly increase his cultivation level, he wouldn't be able to expand the storage capacity of his dark star. The dark origin energy would slowly disperse, and it would be a great loss.

After three days of seclusion, Xiang Shaoyun had fully recuperated and had even grown slightly in strength. He had the urge to use some dragon liquid again to push himself to third-stage Dragon Ascension Realm. But after some hesitation, he decided against it since doing so wouldn't benefit him.

"Time to leave, or they will get worried," muttered Xiang Shaoyun as he stretched and left the room.

The moment he stepped outside, he sensed several different auras waiting in his villa. He assumed that they were Overlord Legion members. Thus, he blanked out when he saw Xiao Wei, Yu Caidie, Huang Tianji, Huang Xiaoyue, and Han Chenfei.

"Why are you here? Can I help you with anything?" Xiang Shaoyun asked in astonishment.
