Chapter 635 (2/2)
They were overjoyed to see Xiang Shaoyun appear, and they quickly saluted him, ”Greetings, Overlord.”
”What happened?” Xiang Shaoyun asked.
”Overlord, you're back in time. The Di Alliance sent something here. Take a look,” said Zhuge Zhantian as he handed Xiang Shaoyun a letter.
Xiang Shaoyun accepted the letter and opened the envelope. When he saw the contents of the letter, he furrowed his brows tightly. A clump of flame lit up from his hands as he burned the letter to ash.
”What nerves! He dares to lay hands on my woman?” Xiang Shaoyun clenched his teeth in anger.
The letter basically detailed how Lady Shura had been captured. If Xiang Shaoyun did not show himself at the appointed location at an appointed time, Lady Shura would suffer. Of course, the Di Alliance did not admit to being the kidnapper in the letter. Rather, they claimed to have obtained news about her kidnapping through coincidence and were kindly informing Xiang Shaoyun about it.
The words weren't believable at all, but n.o.body could say otherwise, anyway. After all, there was no proof that the Di Alliance was the culprit. Furthermore, the kidnapping had not happened within academy grounds, so they couldn't even investigate through the academy's surveillance system.
”Overlord, the letter was sent two days ago. We were talking about looking for you, but good thing you're back now. You need to decide what to do about this,” said Zhuge Zhantian.
”Overlord, this is most certainly a trap. If you go, you will only face numerous ambushes,” said Ma Qihao.
”But we can't ignore Lady Shura. Even if this is a trap, we still have to step on it,” said Shang Jifeng.
After thinking about it for a bit, Xiang Shaoyun said, ”You guys don't have to get involved. I'm their target.”
”What are you saying, Overlord? With the establishment of the Overlord Legion, we are one. Since Lady Shura has encountered trouble, we will naturally help. If you have to do everything yourself, what is the point of establis.h.i.+ng the Legion?” Zhuge Zhantian pointed out blatantly.
”That's right. What's the big deal about the Di Alliance? Let's go together. I doubt they can capture or kill all of us,” said Ma Qihao, his battle intent surging.
Shang Jifeng and Li Haonan also made it known that they were willing to go as well. Xiang Shaoyun was touched to see them offering help. Only during moments of crisis like this would he know that they were worth recruiting in the first place.
However, he had a feeling it wouldn't be so simple. Otherwise, the Di Alliance wouldn't have bothered kidnapping Lady Shura to lure him out of the academy. Perhaps his display of power had caused the Di Clan to feel threatened, and they could no longer wait to eliminate him.
