《I Am Overlord》Chapter 511: Not Even Houseflies Are as Noisy as You

"All in all, your materials are worth 1,500,000 contribution points," concluded the appraiser.
Xiang Shaoyun nodded. "I have some more here. Please appraise them for me as well."
Yet another pile of devil materials appeared. This was also a pile of Devil King materials, and they were valued at about 500,000 contribution points. Next, Xiang Shaoyun took out yet another pile of materials.
The appraiser was getting displeased. "You don't have to take them out bit by bit like this. Take them all out at once."
The appraiser concluded that Xiang Shaoyun had definitely not gathered all these materials by himself. Rather, he must have robbed others for the materials. Otherwise, there was no point in taking them out separately.
Xiang Shaoyun smiled. "Sure, I'll take them all out, then."
He thus took out all the devil materials he intended to sell. Instantly, a massive pile of devil materials appeared. In fact, the pile was the size of a tiny hill, occupying much of the space in the hall. It shocked all the people there.
"Wow, so many materials! How much contribution points are they worth?"
"Who is that young man? Is he the young master of some big organization, and did he have his underlings hunt devils for him?"
"That might be the case. Look, there are even Devil Emperor materials. How can a Skysoar Realm cultivator like him kill Devil Emperors? Someone else must have been doing the hunting for him."
"Wait, I remember him! He is one of the Yu Clan's son-in-law candidates! He is Xiang Shaoyun, the victor of the competition for the yin devil wind. This has been publicly announced by the Yu Clan at the Bloodsin City."
"So it's him? There's no surprise, then. If a son-in-law candidate of the Yu Clan is not a decently capable person himself, he would be an embarrassment."

...
The Han Clan sisters were completely calm when they saw the large pile of devil materials. They had long known how capable Xiang Shaoyun was. The only thing they had in mind right now was to spend more time with him. After he left for the ancient academy, it would probably be very hard for them to see him again.
After scanning the materials, the appraiser valued the materials at a price of over one billion contribution points. That was an astonishingly large figure. After all, Xiang Shaoyun was only a King. The fact that a King had so many contribution points in hand gave the people there an odd feeling.
If they knew that most of the materials were obtained from killing the Noxious Blood Gang and extorting the nether prison devils, they would no longer be as surprised at the price tag of over one billion contribution points.
Of course, Xiang Shaoyun had still kept some of the materials for himself. He was quite satisfied with the amount of contribution points he had gotten from the materials. So long as he could purchase a blood cocoon stone or an icesouls heart, giving away all these materials would be worth it.
"Alright, your turn to do your trade," said Xiang Shaoyun to the Han Clan sisters after getting his contribution plate back.
"Ok. Please wait a bit for us. We'll leave together," said Han Xuewei.
Xiang Shaoyun hesitated for a bit before deciding to wait for them.
Although he did not have much interest in the sisters, his attitude toward them had still improved considerably out of respect for the friendship between Han Pojun and Du Xuanhao.
Of course, the fact that the two had changed their behavior around him was the main reason for his change of attitude. If Han Qianwei had still harbored suspicions about him, he would not have had much interest in deepening their friendship.

The sisters did not have a lot of devil materials. After they both traded their materials for some contribution points, they left with Xiang Shaoyun. When they stepped out of the Contribution Hall, they found that Yang Shuo was waiting for them with a group of people.
That much was obvious from the look in their eyes. Xiang Shaoyun wasn't even bothered to spare the group any of his attention. He walked away with the sisters, completely ignoring the group. However, Yang Shuo still approached looking for trouble.
"Mister Lin, what do you think of these two?" asked Yang Shuo as he stood in the way of the sisters.
"What is the meaning of this, Yang Shuo?" Han Qianwei asked in a displeased manner. Han Xuewei also wore a cold expression; a ruthless look started filling her eyes.
A young man in Yang Shuo's group raised his brow, and with a look of appreciation in his eyes, he said, "Not bad, not bad at all. But it looks like they already have a lover?"
"That doesn't matter at all. What can a wimpy brat like him do?" said Yang Shuo with a look of disdain. He then looked at the sisters and said, "This is Lin Yi, the young master of Soaring Dragon Province's Lin Clan. The Lin Clan is only slightly weaker than the Dragon Society. Although your Han Clan is quite powerful, you are still incomparable to the Lin Clan. It is in your best interest to serve him well."
Lin Li had a decent appearance. He was fair and clean, his clothes gorgeous, and with an elegant folding fan in hand, he emanated a scholarly and refined aura. Although Lin Yi came from a powerful clan, he was a simple-minded person. With just some praises from Yang Shuo, he was filled with elation.
"Exactly. If you follow me, your clan will benefit from it. That is much better than following this wimpy brat," said Lin Yi arrogantly, as if he alone could decide what the Lin Clan would do.
Xiang Shaoyun was feeling rather helpless. He was already 19 years old and was rather tall among humans. Although his face still looked slightly tender, nobody would actually see him as just a brat. Now that Yang Shuo and Lin Yi were seeing him as a brat, his anger started rising.
"I have never heard of the Lin Clan. Move away, or don't blame me for what I'm about to do," said Han Qianwei, losing her temper.
She would generally avoid getting into such arguments, as she did not want to create any trouble. But with her uncle, Han Pojun, nearby, if these youngsters really pushed it too far, her uncle would definitely come to help them.
"Oh, she's quite spicy as well! I like it!" said Lin Yi.
"What are you waiting for, then? Just take her with you. In any case, the Han Clan's base in the Bloodsin City has been destroyed. I doubt they have any other backers," said Yang Shuo. With an impatient look, he berated Xiang Shaoyun, "Brat, piss off. Do you want to die here?"
Right after he said that, a palm slapped his face.
Pa!
"AHHH!"
A crisp slap rang out, followed by a miserable wail. Yang Shuo was sent flying away, his teeth and blood spraying everywhere, looking extremely sorry.
"Not even houseflies are as noisy as you! Are you trying to make me deaf?" said Xiang Shaoyun while digging his ear. The sisters grinned happily at the sight of that.

Casa do Diaño: The Fool
As Thomas Hobbes once said, "Humans are driven by a perpetual and restless desire for power." Given the heavily moral standards society has placed on its inhabitants for centuries, it's no wonder many people deny their internal need to be in control of something. "Oh, we do not want to rule the world at all! We just want to live happy and die happy!" Of course, the irony there is that, by wanting a happy future, you are actually projecting your own desires and opinions into what the world should be like. Hence your inner monarch banging his/her scepter for all their subjects to hear. Though to be fair, this is a pretty small, small example. Why settle for small? Why not go the extra mile and become that vicious monarch pounding his scepter at his feet? This is the story of a young man by the name of Genghis Dillinger Boy. There are quite a few words that can describe Genghis. Anarchist. Libertine. Criminal. Psychopath. He has denied the moral standards society has set for him and constantly lives his life seeking more and more power. Once an unexpected turn occurs in his life, he uses it as an excuse to burn his bridges and move him and his bride to a mysterious island known as Casa do Diaño. Genghis vows to burn the old world to the ground and watch as his brand new world arises from the ashes. But what if he's biting off more than he can chew? After all, monsters like Genghis are not the only kind of monsters lurking in the House of the Devil...
