I Am Overlord

Chapter 1444: Sweeping Through the Border

With his 108 generals, Xiang Shaoyun headed toward the Dragon Society's border. His advance had caused a massive ruckus in the Dragon Society's territory. All their subsidiary organizations were filled with fear, worried that the Ziling Sect would crush through them on the way to the Dragon Society.

"The Ziling Sect is sending their experts to attack the Dragon Society's territory. What should we do?"

"What's there to be afraid about the Ziling Sect? Didn't the Dragon Society's army reach the center of their territory not too long ago and nearly destroyed them?"

"The hell do you know? Ziling Sect's young sect master, Xiang Shaoyun, is now strong enough to kill Great Saints. Not too long ago, he even entered the Dusk Dynasty's Saintly Forest Ranking. He is among the most exceptional cultivators of humanity. I don't even know if the Dragon Society can resist his invasion."

"That's right. The Ziling Sect does not seem like they're going to return empty handed. However, Long Jun is not to be underestimated either. He hasn't fought anyone for many years so his strength must have reached an extremely terrifying level after years of cultivation. He can probably repel the invasion."

...

Xiang Shaoyun's group wasn't in too much of a rush. Like what the Dragon Society did during their previous invasion, Xiang Shaoyun's group also slowly advanced, aiming to create a massive pressure on the Dragon Society before defeating them in one fell swoop.

After they entered the Dragon Society's society, a group of people appeared to stop them. These were the people from the Dragon Society's subsidiary organization. A total of 250 people had arrived. Led by a Saint, the group consisted of Sovereigns, Emperors, and Kings. They looked decently strong, but were too weak compared with Xiang Shaoyun's group.

"I'm Qian Jiuteng from Chiba Sect. May I ask your purpose for intruding into the Dragon Society's territory?" asked the leader as he cupped his fists into a greeting.

The Chiba Sect was a tier-6 organization, one of the three tier-6 organizations under the Dragon Society.

"Sect Master Qian, the Ziling Sect is here to advise the Dragon Society to surrender to us. Your Chiba Sect can be the first to surrender. We will definitely not mistreat you," offered Tian Ji.

Xiang Shaoyun did not need to say anything toward someone like Qian Jiuteng. Someone in his position needed to put on some airs.

"I advise you all to return. The Chiba Sect is loyal to the Dragon Society and will never betray them. If you take another step forward, do not blame us for showing no mercy," said Qian Jiuteng firmly.

"People say that a wise man submits to circumstances. Our young sect master is brilliant and exceptionally talented, slayer of Great Saints. Nobody below the God Realm can stop our advance. The Ziling Sect is already strong enough to advance into a tier-8 organization. Do you not see the circumstances before you, Sect Master Qian?" asked Tian Ji.

"All that has nothing to do with me. Please retreat," said Qian Jiuteng indifferently.

"Fine, looks like the negotiation has failed. Brothers, show them what we're capable of," said Tian Ji.

At those words, the Ziling Sect people unleashed their auras. The numerous auras combined together before crushing down at Chiba Sect's group. The Ziling Sect's Saints hadn't even done anything. Just their Sovereigns were enough to cause the Chiba Sect members to tremble with fear. Not even a Saint like Qian Jiuteng could resist such a powerful suppression. If he continued resisting, only death awaited him.

"Alright. Let's move on," said Xiang Shaoyun. He did not want to waste more time here.

At his command, the Ziling Sect group started charging the opposing group.

Qian Jiuteng's expression changed as he exclaimed, "Everyone, move aside!"

The Chiba Sect members hurriedly dodged aside, but many failed to move away in time. The Ziling Sect crushed over them, instantly creating numerous clouds of blood. Wails rang out repeatedly.

Clearly, the Chiba Sect was no match for the Ziling Sect. Just the Ziling Sect's aura was enough to crush them into death. If they insisted on not moving away, more of them would die. The Chiba Sect members were greatly frightened. Their faces were covered with hatred, but not one of them dared to say anything as that would only invite death.

Xiang Shaoyun did not think that he had done anything wrong. There definitely would be deaths in a war between two organizations. That was the cruelty of war. At present, the only thought Xiang Shaoyun had was that those who obeyed shall live and those who disobeyed shall die.

"Tian Ji, I'm thinking of sending you as an envoy to the Dragon Society. Do you dare to take this task?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.

Being an envoy wasn't a good job. After all, an envoy could very easily be killed in the event of a disagreement.

However, Tian Ji agreed unhesitatingly, "Young sect master, I'm willing to go."

"Very well. Head over to the Dragon Society and tell them that if they do not surrender in seven days, we'll flatten the Dragon Society," said Xiang Shaoyun with a pleased look on his face. He tossed a jade slip to Tian Ji and said, "Take this. If the Dragon Society dares to try anything against you, crush that thing. It will keep you alive."

That was the same jade slip Purple Lightning Marquis had given Xiang Shaoyun. One could see how much importance Xiang Shaoyun attached to Tian Ji from the fact that he had given Tian Ji the jade slip. Tian Ji did not hesitate and accepted the jade slip. After giving Xiang Shaoyun a deep bow, he started heading toward the Dragon Society.

Tian Ji was a brand new Sovereign. With his strength, he couldn't even be considered strong in the Ziling Sect. But his intelligence and courage had won Xiang Shaoyun's appreciation. As Xiang Shaoyun's envoy, he was more than qualified to talk terms with the Dragon Society. Meanwhile, Xiang Shaoyun and the others continued advancing and would only arrive outside the Dragon Society several days after Tian Ji.

Tian Ji traveled on his mount, a massive rooster. The rooster looked incredibly ugly and did not even have a lot of feathers on it. However, the crown on its head was extremely conspicuous while its eyes looked incredibly proud, as though it was the king of chickens.

That was a rooster Tian Ji had occasionally encountered in the Buried Monarch Mountain Range. The rooster had gotten itself injured for some reason, and Tian Ji felt pity for it. Thus, he brought it back to the sect and took care of it. After it recuperated, it decided to stay by his side.

Others might not know the rooster, but it couldn't hide from the likes of Purple Lightning Marquis and Scarlet Flame Monarch. The two could see that the rooster was no ordinary beast. To be precise, it was a sacred rooster, among the strongest chicken beasts in existence. It was a warlike demonic beast that was much more terrifying than many other demonic beasts.

There were very few sacred roosters in existence and they were extremely proud existences. A regular person would not be able to subdue one. Thus, Tian Ji was pretty lucky to be able to get one by his side.

"I will definitely complete the young sect master's mission!" said Tian Ji confidently as he lightly stroked the rooster's neck.
