I Am Overlord

Chapter 1240: That's My Stamp of Ownership

During Xiang Shaoyun's travels with Devil Concubine, they encountered numerous devils. However, none of the devils could avoid the fate of being exterminated. So long as they didn't encounter any Devil Saints, they didn't fear any devils when working together. Even if they met opponents they couldn't defeat, they could still flee.

They weren't that far away from the third layer's entrance. Thus, they only took a short time to reach the third layer.

The third layer was the main battlefield of the Devil Hunting Expedition, and it was also where the four academies were looking for the devilsand. Many Sovereigns and genius disciples from the four academies were gathered in the third layer for the same goal of getting the devilsand.

The third layer was akin to a dividing line in the Devil Domain. A large number of devils of all ranks could be found in the third layer. The third layer also had much more Devil Sovereigns and Devil Emperors than the second layer.

The different races of devils worked together to hunt the humans, not giving them any chance to survive in the third layer. The mortality rate of humans had increased by five times in recent times, and the entire third layer had transformed into hell.

It was obvious how dangerous the third layer was. The moment Xiang Shaoyun and Devil Concubine reached the third layer, nearly 10,000 devils charged at them. They didn't even dare to stop and started fleeing. There were too many devils for them to kill. They would probably exhaust themselves to death before they could kill them all.

In truth, Xiang Shaoyun wanted to stay and harvest all these contribution points. However, he was worried that he would expose that he had devil blood in him and cause even stronger devils to come after him. For his own safety, he decided not to easily use any Imperial Nether Clan ability.

Of course, he could still deal with these devils with his saint soul, but he had a feeling that it would be better for him to maintain a low profile. He would do more after another breakthrough.

After breaking off from the devils, the two continued traveling. When encountering smaller groups of devils, they would fight instead of fleeing. During the fights, Xiang Shaoyun would constantly demonstrate the dao of time to Devil Concubine, allowing her to deepen her understanding.

After killing several hundred devils, the two found a quiet place to stop and recuperate.

After fighting so many devils, they naturally had some injuries. This was especially true for Xiang Shaoyun, who had been fighting without wearing armor. As for Devil Concubine, most of her injuries were concentrated on her four limbs due to her high-tier armor.

Devil Concubine started gently bandaging Xiang Shaoyun's wounds, but he stopped her, saying, "There's no need. I will heal quickly."

Devil Concubine opened her eyes wide and said, "Didn't you say that I'm your woman? What? Are you trying to deny it now?"

"You think too much. Since I have claimed you as my woman, it's too late for you to escape," said Xiang Shaoyun unyieldingly. He reached out and grabbed her wrist before pulling her into his arms.

Devil Concubine's body went stiff, but she soon relaxed. A blush covered her face, making her look even prettier.

"You can still regret it now," said Xiang Shaoyun as he gazed at Devil Concubine, who had her eyes shut.

Devil Concubine opened her eyes and met Xiang Shaoyun's gaze as she asked, "Do you dare to take me?"

"Yes!" replied Xiang Shaoyun firmly.

Which man would say no in this situation?

"Then I won't regret it," said Devil Concubine. "In the future, I'll be following you. If you dare to not take resp—" historical

Before she could finish her words, Xiang Shaoyun pressed his lips against hers, interrupting her from speaking. At the same time, his hands started roaming her body. At this moment, she seemed to have turned limp.

No matter how cold and strong she was, she was also a woman, one who had zero experience with another man before. Thus, she felt incredibly bashful when placed in her current situation.

Xiang Shaoyun naturally wouldn't finish the job at a time like this. After a while, he let go of her and said, "That's my stamp of ownership. From now on, you're mine. Understand?"

Devil Concubine was still blushing as she replied, "Um. I'm yours."

"Good. Be obedient from now on. Let's heal up together," said Xiang Shaoyun as he used the Secret Reversal Technique on both of them.

A gentle green radiance started shining and enveloped the both of them, nourishing their bodies with life force. Devil Concubine wasn't aware that Xiang Shaoyun had such an ability. The pain of her wounds receded as she healed.

She wrapped her arms around Xiang Shaoyun's waist and shut her eyes to enjoy the blissful sensation that she had never felt before. After all their wounds were healed, Xiang Shaoyun shared his comprehension of the dao of time with her. Since she was willing to become his woman, he wouldn't hold anything back from her. He intended to help her reach an even higher height in cultivation.

Devil Concubine also took out the Yin Yang Sword Technique and showed it to Xiang Shaoyun. With the two exchanging their knowledge, their understanding of the dao of time improved. They did not stop at the same place for long. After a while, they started heading toward the devilsand's location.

The devilsand was the target of the four academies. Not only could it help one forge a devilish body, but it was also an important material for puppet refining. It was an incredibly valuable sovereign-grade item.

The devilsand could only be found in the devilsand bug territory. The devilsand bugs were a race of devils living in groups. Not only were they highly poisonous, but their shells were also incredibly tough. Regular attacks and weapons couldn't harm them. Thus, these devilsand bugs were the first obstacle one needed to get through if one wanted to obtain the devilsand.

A considerable number of powerful prodigies were heading to the devilsand bug territory. While avoiding the stronger devils and killing the weaker devils, they gradually arrived at their destination, but instead of successfully obtaining the devilsand, they were chased by the devilsand bugs. Many prodigies perished.

Near the devilsand bug territory were people such as Little Overlord Xiang Chenxi, Bu Feng, and the others from the True Martial Academy; Luo Nantian and his followers from the Nine Palace Academy; Yu Ziyang, Yu Caidie, and their followers from the Dragon Phoenix Academy; and Jiang Qi and some other disciples from the Sacred Deer Academy.

Apart from them, the overseers of the four academies were also participating in this operation. Although they did not move together with the disciples, they also didn't want to miss out on getting some devilsand. Many Sovereigns had also come to the area, all of them sharing the same goal.
