I Am Overlord

Chapter 1326: Enemies On A Narrow Road

After kicking Yuan Lingshao away, Xiang Shaoyun looked at the two women and sighed, "Women bring trouble. This ancient saying couldn\'t be more true."

Tuoba Wan\'er said, "And perverts have existed everywhere since ancient times. That fellow was one of them."

"That\'s right. Some people are too conceited. They should look into a mirror," said Gong Qinyin.

"Alright. We have strolled around for a bit now. Let\'s go to the Brightflower Chamber," said Xiang Shaoyun, as he wasn\'t in the mood to continue strolling. He decided to head straight to the Brightflower Chamber.

But before they could go far, Yuan Lingshao leaped out of the river and roared, "You dare touch this young master? Die!"

He then slammed his fan at the back of Xiang Shaoyun\'s head, unleashing an incredible might as he aimed to crush Xiang Shaoyun\'s head with one move. Without even turning his head, Xiang Shaoyun released his aura and blasted Yuan Lingshao\'s attack into nothingness. With a wail, Yuan Lingshao was sent flying away.

"Don\'t overestimate your capabilities, or I won\'t mind letting you stay at the bottom of the river," said Xiang Shaoyun coldly, still not sparing Yuan Lingshao even one look.

He then left with the two women. He wasn\'t afraid of trouble, but he did not wish to waste his time on something this pointless. Tuoba Wan\'er had been here before. With her leading the way, they soon reached an area with magnificent buildings.

On one side was a mountain, and on the other was a river. One building after another dotted the landscape, each building constructed with a unique design. The buildings each faced the river with trees, flowers, pavilions, rock gardens, and small bridges, which were everywhere. With each step one took, one would discover new fascinating scenery. When it rained, the entire place would turn hazy, further adding to the place\'s elegance.

Xiang Shaoyun couldn\'t help but say, "What a nice place."

Gong Qinyin loved the place as well. "If I could cultivate here for a bit, my zither dao would improve greatly."

"If you like this place, feel free to stay here for a while. I believe Yanran wouldn\'t have a problem with it," said Tuoba Wan\'er.

"Um. Let\'s meet them first," said Gong Qinyin.

When the three arrived at the front gate, their path was blocked. After Tuoba Wan\'er made her identity clear, the guard immediately went in to report their arrival. Shortly after, Liu Yanran came out. Dressed in a green outfit and walking along the stone steps, her nimble and petite body was akin to a swaying willow tree that was dainty and elegant. Her beauty was comparable to Tuoba Wan\'er and Gong Qinyin while her unique temperament gave off a refreshing sensation.

Liu Yanran was unaware of Xiang Shaoyun\'s visit. When she saw him, she exclaimed in shock, "I wasn\'t aware that Young Master Xiang was personally visiting. My apologies for not welcoming your arrival personally."

"You\'re too polite, Miss Liu. I\'m here to ask for benefits, so it doesn\'t matter if you don\'t personally welcome me," said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile.

When Liu Yanran heard those words, her smile became unnatural. What an unromantic fellow.

"Young Master Xiang, Wan\'er, please come in. Let\'s talk about this later," said Liu Yanran.

Xiang Shaoyun did not stand on ceremony and followed Liu Yanran inside. Instead of bringing the three to the main building, Liu Yanran first brought them to the VIP housing to get some rest.

"This is your first visit, Young Master Xiang. Feel free to stay here for a bit and enjoy the beautiful scenery. That way, I\'ll have a chance to serve as your host," said Liu Yanran politely.

Xiang Shaoyun said, "Miss Liu, we\'re not here on holiday. When can you bring us to the Brightflower Land?"

Liu Yanran feigned a happy smile and said, "I\'ll have it arranged. There\'s no rush, Young Master Xiang. There\'s still quite a while before it opens."

Xiang Shaoyun could see that Liu Yanran was acting in an uneasy manner. However, he did not expose her. He nodded and said, "Miss Liu, I hope you don\'t disappoint your ally."

Liu Yanran hurriedly said, "We won\'t. Please be assured."

And thus, Xiang Shaoyun\'s group of three settled down in the Brightflower Chamber. Xiang Shaoyun had thought that the chamber would hold a grand welcoming ceremony for them the next day, but that wasn\'t the case. It was as though everyone had forgotten about them the moment they had settled down at the VIP housing. Even Liu Yanran stopped visiting. By the time three days had passed, even Tuoba Wan\'er and Gong Qinyin felt that something was wrong.

"Looks like the Brightflower Chamber doesn\'t welcome us," said Xiang Shaoyun with a sigh.

"I\'ll go ask Yanran about this," said Tuoba Wan\'er.

"Let\'s go together. I\'m getting bored of staying here," said Xiang Shaoyun.

And thus, the three left the VIP housing. Not long after they left, they encountered Yuan Lingshao and a few other people.

"Why are you here?" Yuan Lingshao exclaimed in shock.

Yuan Lingshao still remembered clearly the humiliation he had received a few days ago. He wanted nothing more than to take his revenge against Xiang Shaoyun. He had been searching for them to no avail. Surprisingly, they had entered the Brightflower Chamber.

"This is simply a perfect example of the saying \'meeting enemies on a narrow road,\' " said Xiang Shaoyun with a sigh.

He did not want to create trouble, but trouble kept coming. He couldn\'t avoid it even if he wanted to.

"Hahaha, looks like you really insist on seeking death. Since you have come to the Brightflower Chamber, prepare to die," said Yuan Lingshao with a sneer.

"Idiot," Tuoba Wan\'er was losing her patience.

"Stinky woman, you will soon learn the price of offending this young master," said Yuan Lingshao. He then shouted at the people around him, "Brothers, take this kid down for me. He was the one who had injured me a few days ago."

"Junior Yuan, please step back. I can take him down myself," offered a peak Emperor.

Right after saying that, he reached for Xiang Shaoyun\'s throat. His attack was nimble enough that an ordinary person wouldn\'t be able to react in time. Unfortunately, his speed was as slow as a snail in Xiang Shaoyun\'s eyes. Before his hand could reach Xiang Shaoyun\'s throat, his wrist was grabbed. He was unable to advance even an inch forward no matter how he tried.

"You\'re being so arrogant with only this much strength? I truly wonder where your confidence comes from," said Xiang Shaoyun with disdain. With a twist of his hand, a crisp crack rang out.

"Ahhh!"
