《I Am Overlord》Chapter 749: I'll Be Shy
Advertisement
"That's right. You did bully his subordinate back then, and just half a month ago, you were acting in such a high-profile manner. All that is enough to attract that lunatic's attention," said Ouyang Chuanqi lazily while drinking.
From the tone of his voice, it was clear even he was slightly fearful of Zhan Wushuang.
Xiang Shaoyun shrugged. "Why can't you freaks do anything else instead of focusing on bullying me? If I was actually a few years older, I would definitely beat him up so badly even his mother wouldn't be able to recognize him."
In a way, he was right. He was only 22 years old. Among the disciples, he was among the youngest. Because of that, he had spent a comparatively shorter time cultivating, resulting in a lower cultivation level. That was a disadvantage he held among the various disciples.
"Hehe, yes, that's right. But that is not an excuse for you to admit defeat. If you actually cultivated one power with your nine stars, even with your age, you would still be able to beat him until his mother couldn't recognize him. Too bad you chose a dead end in your cultivation. I really can't understand how your brain works," said Ouyang Chuanqi with a look of regret.
"This is a dead end for others but not necessarily for me," said Xiang Shaoyun with a faint smile. "If Zhan Wushuang really comes to challenge me, you, as the deputy commander, can't sit still, you know?"
Ouyang Chuanqi quickly made his stance clear. "Don't even think of dragging me into this mess. I don't have any confidence in beating him."
"Let's work together and beat him up, then," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"Can you have some pride? If he issues you a challenge, are you not embarrassed to be looking for helpers?" criticized Ouyang Chuanqi.

"This has nothing to do with pride. An act of fighting someone who I obviously know I can't match is called courting death," said Xiang Shaoyun shamelessly.
Each of these young geniuses had arrogance carved in their bones. None would easily admit defeat. That was something known by everyone. Thus, when Xiang Shaoyun admitted that he wasn't Zhan Wushuang's match with such forthrightness, Ouyang Chuanqi was astonished.
He did not feel contempt for Xiang Shaoyun because of that. Rather, he admired Xiang Shaoyun for his honesty. Instead of wasting time talking about the same topic, the two soon shifted to other random topics. After a while, Ouyang Chuanqi took his leave.
After Ouyang Chuanqi left, Xiang Shaoyun called Tang Longfei, Zhuge Zhantian, and Shang Jifeng over. And when he was done handling the Overlord Legion affairs with them, he no longer had any time to resume his intimate session with Lady Shura. He went straight to one of the nine major training spots, the City of Light.
Regardless of whether Zhan Wushuang was really going to challenge him, his best option for now was still to vanish from the academy for a while. Doing so, he could try comprehending the profundity of light and avoid any challenges Zhan Wushuang might throw his way. One could say that he was hitting two birds with one stone.
Of the nine major training spots, the City of Light was the safest. It was an immense city, its architecture foreign and unique. Instead of humans, this was the territory of the kind race known as angels. An angel looked almost the same as a human, with the addition of a bright halo above the head and a pair of snow-white wings on the back.
The male angels were handsome and tall, while the female angels were beautiful and charming. A joyful smile hung on their faces at all times. They would always welcome the foreign visitors to their city with a friendly smile capable of affecting any visitor's mood. Here, nobody could bring himself to get angry, create trouble, or kill.

Naturally, anyone who dared to create trouble in the City of Light would be collectively oppressed by the angels. One should not look down on the angels because of their kindness. In truth, they were extremely strong.
They were akin to the pets of the heavens. Each was born with a Radiant Light Physique, granting them a 100 percent affinity with light energy. For them, growing in strength was an incredibly simple matter.
Thus, every single angel was an expert. One should never provoke them lightly. Because of that, anyone coming here to cultivate would follow the rules of the angels and wouldn't create any trouble.
When Xiang Shaoyun arrived, he saw three suns hanging in the sky. Each sun occupied a different position. One was setting, one was right in the middle of the sky, and one was rising.
Seeing this scene, Xiang Shaoyun exclaimed in astonishment, "No wonder it was rumored that night does not exist here. I finally understand why."
Since three suns were rising and setting at different times, night naturally wouldn't exist here. However, the three suns were not what surprised Xiang Shaoyun the most. Instead, it was that the sunshine was not as hot as the sunshine in the outside world.
Furthermore, instead of the usual reddish or yellowish glow, the suns here emitted pale white radiance. Bathing in such sunshine, one would be filled with a sense of calmness and comfort. Xiang Shaoyun could feel the sunshine wash away his worries, fury, and killing intent.
"Hello, handsome human," greeted a passionate angel.
Xiang Shaoyun looked over and nodded with a smile. Soon, more and more angels greeted him. Some of the braver female angels even started flirting with him. They were incredibly passionate and open-minded. Evidently, they were very interested in the handsome human who had just arrived.
Xiang Shaoyun found himself blushing from all the gazes focused on him as he said, "Yes, this young master is handsome. But you don't have to keep staring at me, right? I'll be shy."
At this time, a beautiful angel waved her gorgeous wings around as she approached Xiang Shaoyun and asked, "Handsome human, is there anything we can help you with?"
The beautiful angel was tall and slim. Her exposed arms were tender, while her exposed shoulders and slender legs showed her milky white skin. She also emitted a faint fragrance that made one feel comfortable around her.
At any other place, if a woman as beautiful as this was flirting with a man, the man's blood would definitely be boiling, with all sorts of perverted thoughts rising in his head. But here, it was very hard for anyone to have such thoughts.
Xiang Shaoyun smiled. "Thank you, beautiful lady. I will first take a stroll around the city and witness for myself the culture of the angels."
"Will it be fine for me to help you with that, then?" asked the angel with a sweet smile.
"It will be my honor to receive your assistance," said Xiang Shaoyun, unable to reject such a friendly offer.
And thus, he gained a beautiful angelic guide as he toured the City of Light. If any disciples from the academy saw this, they would be filled with envy. Inwardly, they would even curse his wanton spending of contribution points because every second spent in the City of Light was charged. But unlike everyone else, that limitation did not apply for Xiang Shaoyun. Hence, any sort of jealousy was pointless.
