I Am Overlord

Chapter 1324: Recollecting The Past

Overlord, Purple Lightning Marquis, Scarlet Flame Monarch, and Devouring Ghost had finally reunited. Together, they drank and talked as though they would never run out of topics. After 10,000 years of separation, their friendship was as strong as ever. Not even time could dilute their brotherhood. That was unimaginable for an ordinary person. These were people who could trust each other with everything; their brotherhood was stronger than actual siblings.

In the past, they had waged numerous wars throughout the world, fighting alongside each other as they tried to conquer the world. Although they had failed to realize their ambition, their names had still spread far and wide.

One overlord, five generals, eight-thousand-man Xiang Army, undefeated wherever they went. Everything had changed, akin to a withered flower. Their dream was no more, and their previous comrades were also no more.

"Overlord, back then, us six brothers fought side by side, facing death together. We have survived, but Ten Thousand Slayer and Gold Clothed Blood are no more," lamented Devouring Ghost.

Scarlet Flame Monarch said, "Overlord, you have a noble ambition. Back then, we were too weak to help you. If we were more capable and managed to enter the Rebirth Realm, those bastards wouldn't have been able to do anything to us!"

"We had suffered, but we had also killed many of them. In a way, it was an equal exchange, or perhaps we had even profited. In the future, I'll still fight alongside the overlord and return to those places, unleashing boundless slaughter upon them and avenging third and fifth brother!" said Purple Lightning Marquis.

Xiang Shaoyun could sense that the flame of ambition still burned in their hearts. In a gratified manner, he said, "This overlord had spent a lifetime in war. The best thing to have ever happened to me was getting to know you guys. So long as this overlord remains alive, a day will come when us brothers will once again spread our names far and wide. The world shall learn to shudder upon hearing our names!"

"The world shall learn to shudder upon hearing our names!" the others shouted, lifted their liquor, and started drinking.

They stayed at the same place for three days and chatted endlessly. Although they still had many things to tell each other, they had managed to bring their friendship back to how it was 10,000 years ago.

When they were done catching up, Purple Lightning Marquis asked Scarlet Flame Monarch, "Scarlet Flame, how's your current condition?"

Scarlet Flame Monarch sighed and said, "I managed to reignite my astral flame, but I have too many hidden injuries. Also, my body is getting old. It will be hard for me to regain my previous strength."

He looked distressed. He had already tried his best, but time had left a deep mark on his body. There was nothing he could do about it.

"Don't be disheartened. Over the years, I collected quite a lot of treasures. Both you and Devouring Ghost can shed your bodies and exchange your bones, forging a new Saint body. With that, both of you can easily regain your peak strength," said Purple Lightning Marquis confidently.

Both Scarlet Flame Monarch and Devouring Ghost became excited. Scarlet Flame Monarch asked, "What good stuff have you collected? Is it a god-grade item?"

"Yes, it's god grade. To be precise, it's a god-grade spring that can help one reforge one's body," said Purple Lightning Marquis.

The eyes of Scarlet Flame Monarch and Devouring Ghost lit up.

If they could receive the baptism of a god-grade spring, it wouldn't take them long to regain their peak strength.

"The god spring should be helpful for the overlord as well, right?" asked Devouring Ghost.

"Of course, but before using the spring, it's better for the overlord to reach the Heaven Battling Realm first. Otherwise, much of the effect would be wasted," said Purple Lightning Marquis.

"Um. Let them use it first. My current body is very good. There is no need to use the spring for now. It won't be too late for me to use it upon entering the Heaven Battling Realm," said Xiang Shaoyun calmly.

"Let's not wait. I'll let them use the spring now," said Purple Lightning Marquis.

Xiang Shaoyun said, "It's better to return to the Ziling Sect first. You can stand guard for them while you help me watch over the sect. I'll have to enter the Saintforce Realm soon. Only with your help will I leave without worrying about the sect."

"We'll follow your plan, overlord," answered Purple Lightning Marquis, Scarlet Flame Monarch, and Devouring Ghost.

At this time, Scarlet Flame Monarch said, "There's no rush to leave. Let me dig out the vein I found down there. We can further enrich the sect with it."

He then dove underground and dug up a chunk of land from under the ground. His aggressive action alarmed all the demonic beasts in the area. The more powerful ones started roaring. They were about to attack, but when they sensed Scarlet Flame Monarch's strength, they remained still. historical

Without a Demon Saint, they wouldn't dare to challenge a Saint like Scarlet Flame Monarch. Soon, some reddish ores appeared. This ore was actually a type of rare ore known as a scarlet stone.

A large number of scarlet stones could be found underground. They were all sovereign-grade materials excellent for forging equipment. They could also be sold for an excellent price. This was quite a bountiful harvest.

"Even the heavens are helping us. Scarlet stones of such quality are comparable to several years of the sect's income," said Xiang Shaoyun.

They worked together to mine the entire vein before returning to the sect. After returning, Xiang Shaoyun arranged the best seclusion locations for both Scarlet Flame and Devouring Ghost. Purple Lightning Marquis took out his god-grade spring water and handed it to them. They would definitely leave seclusion with greatly improved strength.

Next, Xiang Shaoyun brought Purple Lightning to the grand hall. He also called Green Ghost over, intending to further suppress Green Ghost's ambitions. Green Ghost might have sworn loyalty to him, but Xiang Shaoyun was sure that Green Ghost was still having second thoughts. He wouldn't have insisted on remaining a subsidiary organization otherwise.

Upon entering the hall, Green Ghost first bowed at Xiang Shaoyun. When his gaze landed on Purple Lightning Marquis, he trembled.

"Y-you're Lord Purple Lightning?" Green Ghost was shocked.

As Devouring Ghost's disciple, Green Ghost had naturally met everyone close to Devouring Ghost, including Purple Lightning Marquis. As the leader of the Five Skyslaying Generals, Purple Lightning Marquis had always been someone whom Green Ghost could only bow to. He had thought that Purple Lightning Marquis had died, but Purple Lightning Marquis' sudden appearance gave him a great shock.

"You know me?" Purple Lightning Marquis asked.

Xiang Shaoyun said, "This is Devouring Ghost's disciple, Green Ghost. He now leads his own organization."

"Ah, it's that kid. I never expected to see him again. Not bad, I guess," said Purple Lightning Marquis.

"It's great to see you again, Lord Purple Lightning! My master will definitely be happy to see you again," said Green Ghost excitedly.

"I already met your master. He will regain his peak strength soon," said Purple Lightning Marquis.
