I Am Overlord

Chapter 1727: You Just Can ’t Resist Playing Tricks, Can You

The aliens weren ’t easy to kill.
Even when being ambushed, they were still difficult opponents, especially when they had 80 Gods in their ranks.
Between themselves, these aliens had enough strength to pose a serious threat wherever they went.

Xiang Shaoyun, Ling Ziruo, and Song Tiandao also had a decent number of Gods at their side.
Instead of being careless, they worked together to surround and kill the aliens.
Xiang Shaoyun did not make any move during the battle.
Rather, he had his people do all the fighting.
He aimed to ignite their battle intent and have them experience the cruelty of the war with the aliens.
Only by adapting themselves to such dangerous battles would they be able to benefit from the war.

Eventually, all the aliens were eliminated before they could do much even though there were thousands of them.
Xiang Shaoyun and company didn ’t suffer much loss from the conflict.
Only a small number of Saints perished from the collision, a small price to pay considering the fact that they had defeated the entire alien group.

They also looted all the bodies of the killed aliens.
After all, the aliens had quite a decent number of treasures on them, enough to help Xiang Shaoyun ’s group reach a higher level in their cultivation.

The surviving aliens were all brought before Xiang Shaoyun to be transformed into Xiang Shaoyun ’s puppets.
One third of all the aliens were captured, and they were transformed into Xiang Shaoyun ’s puppets.

When Ling Ziruo and Song Tiandao learned of Xiang Shaoyun ’s ability to turn a living person into his puppet, they were greatly shocked.
They knew that if this continued, Xiang Shaoyun would accumulate more and more puppets.
It would only be a matter of time before the forces under his control surpassed everyone else ’s.
He might even gain enough strength to deal a major blow to the aliens.

They rejoiced at their decision to ally with Xiang Shaoyun.
If they hadn ’t made that choice, they wouldn ’t have been able to hunt the aliens so easily.
When Xiang Shaoyun and company were done with this group of aliens, they concealed themselves nearby.
Some of the aliens under his control were sent back to the main alien group.
They were tasked to ask for more reinforcements and lead these aliens over to the ambush.

Xiang Shaoyun had profited decently from his newly gained alien puppets.
He passed some of the saint-grade items he received from the aliens to his people, ensuring that they would continue growing rapidly even during wartime.

”Young Master Xiang, are you not afraid that the aliens would send over stronger enemies? ” asked Ling Ziruo.

Ling Ziruo was an absolute beauty.
The tiny fragrance emanating from her body caused Xiang Shaoyun ’s heart to flutter as she approached him.
He forcibly calmed himself, clasped his hands behind him, and said, ”The moment we decided to come to this battlefield, we all decided to live with our lives hanging on a thread.
What is there to be afraid of? At worst, we ’ll only die here in outer space. ”

At that moment, Xiang Shaoyun truly meant what he said.
His indifference to his own life was further strengthened after witnessing the manifestation of the dominion behind his master.
That scene greatly touched him, allowing him to better understand the significance of this war.

Naturally, the young guild master position was also his goal, but what he wanted more was to eliminate all the alien invaders.
The position no longer seemed so important.
He only wanted to contribute to the dominion!

Ling Ziruo sensed the change in Xiang Shaoyun ’s mental state.
As she gazed at his resolute face from the side, her heartbeat accelerated.

Just as she was about to take a step closer to Xiang Shaoyun, Devil Concubine ’s voice rang out, ”Overlord, I have just gained a new insight on the dao of time.
Can you give me some advice? ”

She spoke with a coyish voice, a voice that could melt the heart of any man.
When Ling Ziruo sensed Devil Concubine ’s gaze, she tactfully left.
Ling Ziruo was far stronger than Devil Concubine, but she knew very well that Devil Concubine had an innate Yin Yang Physique.
In the future, Devil Concubine would probably become a cultivator no weaker than her.
In any case, it wouldn ’t be wise to offend Devil Concubine since they would still spend a long time together.

Xiang Shaoyun understood what Devil Concubine was trying to do.
Thus, he wrapped his arms around her waist and said, ”You just can ’t resist playing tricks, can you? ”

”I wasn ’t playing any tricks! I was serious! ” said Devil Concubine as she nestled against Xiang Shaoyun, satisfied.

”Sure.
Let ’s study the dao of time together.
We ’ll push your cultivation to an even higher level, ” said Xiang Shaoyun.

”No thanks.
I only want to spend some quality time with you, ” said Devil Concubine.

Xiang Shaoyun did not say anything else.
Just like that, the two silently leaned against each other, enjoying their time together.
Xiang Shaoyun had a feeling that moments like this would only become rarer and rarer in the future.

…

Meanwhile, at the other part of the battlefield, the aliens and the humans were still continuing their one-on-one matches.
The aliens all had incredible abilities, allowing them to pull countless tricks against their opponents.
The humans found these aliens extremely tricky to deal with.
Fortunately, the young Gods had generously granted the Saints some god-grade weapons to raise their strength.
That was why the humans had been doing better in the matches.

Three rounds were fought that day.
For the first round, five out of ten human combatants had won, ending the round at a draw.
For the second round, four human combatants were victorious, but the overall result wasn ’t as good as the first round of the day.
And for the third round, only three humans were victorious.

The aliens were no fools.
They knew that the humans had given the combatants some secret weapons to help with the matches, so they had sent even stronger combatants for the second and third rounds of the day.
They were able to deliver the humans yet another crushing defeat.

”Is this all you humans are capable of? You truly are nothing special.
The only thing you can do is rely on external objects to fight, ” said an alien provocatively.

”That ’s right.
Just surrender already.
Perhaps we will consider sparing you.
Otherwise, all of you will die when our army decides to attack, ” said a different alien.

The humans wore unsightly expressions, but they couldn ’t find anything to say.
They even considered attacking with their entire army instead of continuing the matches.
Unfortunately, their morale was at a low point after their many defeats.
If they started the decisive battle immediately, they would only place themselves at a disadvantage.

”Looks like we need to change the rules.
I need to fight a match and raise our morale, ” muttered Qin Jiu.

The old man beside him hurriedly stopped him and said, ”Young Master, do not fight personally.
It ’s not the time for you to fight yet. ”

”But if I don ’t fight and Gongsun fights instead, he will be the one basking in the limelight, ” said Qin Jiu.

Just as he was about to challenge the aliens, an alien suddenly flew over and shouted, ”L-lord, this is bad! Our group was defeated by that group of humans! ”

The alien was loud, so even the humans heard him.
All of them were stunned.

”Speak clearly! ” said Mao Gangqiang as he furiously grabbed the alien.

”We were chasing after a stray group of humans, but we were defeated, ” the alien hurriedly said.
