  The first thing entering his vision upon opening his eyes was Lady Shura's charming face. A flush appeared on her face as she quickly looked away.

  Xiang Shaoyun took the opportunity to lift his head, and he planted his lips on her cheeks. She gasped lightly, and the blush on her face deepened. Then, Xiang Shaoyun sat up and hugged Lady Shura as he said gently, "Lady Shura, these two years have been hard on you."

  "It's not hard at all. I just keep feeling like I'm a burden," answered Lady Shura.

  Although she was now a third-stage Dragon Ascension Realm cultivator, the gap between her and Xiang Shaoyun was still rather large.

  Lightly rubbing her nose, Xiang Shaoyun replied, "You're already doing very well. My cultivation level is not even as high as yours! Also, I once said that I wanted you to be my woman. Although you are currently within my embrace, we have yet to finalize the act. That is not acceptable, right?"

  Lady Shura was so shy she did not even dare to meet his gaze. With her head lowered, she muttered softly, "Do whatever you want. You have long gained my heart."

  Overjoyed, Xiang Shaoyun lifted Lady Shura's head and leaned in, joining their lips. Initially, the kiss was gentle and soft. Slowly, he led the tempo while his hands roamed busily around her, causing soft gasps to escape her lips repeatedly.

  Finally, his blood boiled as his actions became even more passionate, his moves turning rough as if he couldn't wait to become one with Lady Shura. Meanwhile, Lady Shura seemed to be blanking out.

  Her heart had long belonged to him, and she had also wanted to give her body to him for a while. However, she was too shy to take the initiative. With Xiang Shaoyun being constantly busy cultivating, he had never found the time to make the request of her. Thus, she had been slightly sad for not being able to fulfill her wish.

  She even felt that Xiang Shaoyun was giving up on her because of Yu Caidie. Now that Xiang Shaoyun had displayed such passion toward her, she was prepared to give him her body and truly become his woman.

  Just as Xiang Shaoyun was about to rip her clothes apart, he sensed someone arriving outside the villa. The visitor was none other than Ouyang Chuanqi, who was stopped outside by Vicious One, Two, and Three.

  Since there was nobody else apart from Aikai in the villa, the three birds were on guard duty. They were already Demon Kings, and they even had high intelligence and could speak fluent enough to hold a conversation with anyone.

  Although Ouyang Chuanqi had joined the Overlord Legion, he had always acted alone. Nobody could restrict him. Not even Xiang Shaoyun.

  If this was anyone else, Xiang Shaoyun would definitely make him wait or even chase him away. But Ouyang Chuanqi was one of the top 10 freaks on the Dragon Phoenix List, an important member of the Overlord Legion. Hence, Xiang Shaoyun was forced to see this visitor.

  Of all times, why does he need to come now? Xiang Shaoyun cursed inwardly as he suppressed his raging lust.

  Lady Shura was confused as to why Xiang Shaoyun had stopped. Her passion had also been stirred, her face flushed red. In fact, she was waiting for Xiang Shaoyun to finally unleash himself upon her.

  Instead, he merely gave her a kiss and slapped her perky buttocks before saying, "Our good affair has been ruined. I'm afraid we have to resume another day."

  He then stood up, put his clothes on, and walked out of the room. Only then did Lady Shura realize there was a visitor. She quickly controlled her mental state and looked at the departing Xiang Shaoyun with indignation as she cursed, "That annoying bastard."

  Xiang Shaoyun went outside and told the three birds to allow Ouyang Chuanqi entry. Stepping forth, he smiled, "Brother Ouyang, I thought you would never visit my place."

  They had separated after leaving the Gleamstar Blessed Land, and Ouyang Chuanqi had yet to visit his villa.

  Like a magic trick, Ouyang Chuanqi conjured two jars of liquor. He tossed one to Xiang Shaoyun and said, "I have two jars of 1,000-year-old liquor. It hasn't been easy collecting them. Today, I'm here to celebrate your victory. I hope you don't mind my tardiness."

  Xiang Shaoyun caught the jar and smiled. "I'm happy that you even have the thought. Come in and take a seat. I'll get someone to prepare some dishes. Let's have a nice chat!"

  Ouyang Chuanqi waved his hand. "No need for all that trouble. I'm only here to take a look at 1 Dragon Villa. Sure enough, this place is better than where I'm staying. I think I heard that Zhan Wushuang is interested in 1 Dragon Villa as well."

  "What? Zhan Wushuang is interested in my place?" Xiang Shaoyun was astonished.

  Zhan Wushuang was a top prodigy of the academy, and he was definitely no weaker than Ouyang Chuanqi.

  Since a freak like that was expressing interest in the villa, he was most likely going to start troubling them. Although Xiang Shaoyun had full confidence in himself, he would still be nervous if he had to face an opponent that strong.

  Chapter 749: I'll Be Shy

  "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.

  Chapter 750: You're A Devil

  The City of Light was filled with light. It was exceedingly hard to even find a dark corner because the entire city was built from glass. On top of each building was a round pearl, intensifying the sunshine that filled the city's every nook and corner with light.

  According to the angel named Dreve Rose, the City of Light had a longer history than humanity. The only reason they even had any sort of relationship with the humans was due to the appearance of the Envoy of Light among the humans. Back then, this expert had contributed greatly to the angels, resulting in the opening of this city to humans.

  Of course, the city wasn't fully opened to all humanity. Rather, it was only opened for Dragon Phoenix Academy members. Other humans would have a much harder time coming here. One ought to know that the angels didn't exactly have a pristine impression of humans—human craftiness and viciousness had once harmed the angels.

  Because of that, the Dragon Phoenix Academy took great care in restricting the number and personality of anyone entering the City of Light. Otherwise, the angels would ignore all past agreements and sever their connection with humans.

  Before coming, Xiang Shaoyun had already read the key information about the city. It was reminded again and again that one should never create trouble in the City of Light. The moment one angered the angels in any way, one would be forever banned from the city. And if one committed a serious crime, one might even be expelled from the academy or outright killed.

  Thus, nobody dared to disobey the rules as the consequences were grave. Xiang Shaoyun had a rather pleasant interaction with Dreve Rose. She told him a lot about the local customs and the rules of living here.

  Xiang Shaoyun would listen seriously, occasionally giving some humorous replies, causing Dreve Rose to giggle without stop. Under her guidance, he arrived at the Tower of Light, the city's most important building. The tower was triangle-shaped, reaching the clouds high in the sky. Its entire body was bright and dazzling, looking incredibly grand and spectacular.

  "Handsome Xiang, if you stand below the Tower of Light, your talent in the way of light will be displayed. Do you want to give it a try?" asked Dreve Rose.

  Xiang Shaoyun rejected, "I don't think I should do it. This Tower of Light is so pure and holy. Mortals like me would not dare to stain it with my presence."

  "Don't worry. A lot of humans have tested themselves at the Tower of Light. Humans with pure hearts will even be rewarded by our high priest. Even if you fail to get the reward, you won't lose anything by trying, right?" Dreve Rose persuaded.

  After a slight hesitation, Xiang Shaoyun agreed, "Ok. I'll give it a try."

  He guessed that this Tower of Light was probably the same as the Evaluation Stele, capable of scanning one's physique. It wouldn't be an issue for him to take a little test here. Thus, he strode toward the tower.

  Standing before the tower, he could feel himself bathed in the power of light, giving him an unprecedented sense of comfort.

  Swish! Swish!

  Rays of light energy shot out of the tower and enveloped Xiang Shaoyun. When these rays converged on his body, his light star stirred and started absorbing the light energy in them. It was also at this moment that a radiant aura erupted from his body. It was as if he was going to fuse with the light energy around him.

  Dreve Rose watched on with a smile on her face, clearly pleased about what was happening. Since Xiang Shaoyun could fuse with the tower's power, it signified that his physique suited the cultivation of light.

  But the next moment, panic covered her face. She retreated repeatedly, and as she pointed at Xiang Shaoyun, she shouted, "Y-You're a devil! Men! Come! Seize this devil!"

  Xiang Shaoyun was still bathed in the power of light. Hearing Dreve Rose's shout, he was completely confused. At this time, several angels flew out from different directions.

  Their gazes focused on Xiang Shaoyun and saw a specter hovering above Xiang Shaoyun. The specter was akin to a Devil Emperor, swaying about in the air with its vicious features clear for all to see.

  Finally, Xiang Shaoyun sensed what was going on with himself. His Imperial Nether Clan bloodline had apparently been exp
osed by the Tower of Light. No matter how he tried, he couldn't suppress it.

  Shit! I need to retreat! Xiang Shaoyun cursed inwardly when he realized the truth. Without any hesitation, he used his footwork and dashed in a certain direction.

  He recalled how the angels held a natural hostility against those with dark or devilish physiques. Now that the tower had exposed his devil bloodline, the angels would not spare him. They would most certainly purify him in a way they deemed necessary. He did not know what would happen to him then.

  Xiang Shaoyun fled at top speed, his single step sending him far away. Even the angels failed to encircle him. He had to reach the teleportation formation as quickly as possible, or things would get troublesome.

  Unfortunately, angels were everywhere in the City of Light. With their high unity, so long as one called for help, the others would quickly work together. Xiang Shaoyun was able to escape the first encirclement, but he couldn't escape the others.

  Hundreds of angels surrounded him, their wings spread wide as they blocked all routes of escape. These were angels of differing strengths. Some were weak and some were strong. Xiang Shaoyun could still try breaking free of them, but he knew that if he harmed them, he would be in even bigger trouble.

  Thus, he kept trying to escape while withholding from attacking. However, the angels launched numerous beams of light, filling the sky with a bright radiance that forced Xiang Shaoyun to shut his eyes before forcefully restraining him.

  This was one of the angel combination techniques. Even if Xiang Shaoyun was a Sovereign, he still wouldn't be able to escape this easily. Restrained by that move, he couldn't even move anymore. Thus, he gave up on resisting.

  One of the angels stepped forth while muttering, "Dear gods, please purify this evil human."
