I Am Overlord

man face mask, capable of changing one's appearance.
With this mask, very few people would be able to see one's actual appearance.
For Xiang Shaoyun, something like this was akin to a second life.
Apart from that, he picked up some herbs as well.
The rest of the treasures were left alone. 

Mo Mo suggested, “We have an incomplete king-grade battle technique here.
Do you want to take a look at it?”

“Nope.” Xiang Shaoyun waved his hand.

What a weirdo, Mo Mo mumbled inwardly.

For many people, the treasures here were invaluable.
Any Transformation Realm expert would dream to have the things here.
But Xiang Shaoyun only picked a few of them and rejected the others.
It was understandable that Mo Mo was astounded.

The two finally left the storage room.
Xiang Shaoyun asked, “Do you know if there is any land here where fire congregates?”

Mo Mo shook her head and said, “No idea.
But you can try asking around at the Cloud Margin City.
The people there know much more than us.”

“Cloud Margin City huh?” Xiang Shaoyun sighed.
He paused and muttered to himself, “Looks like I really have to go there.”

“Can you take me with you?” Mo Mo asked, her eyes lit up.

“Take you with me?” Xiang Shaoyun was astonished.

“Of course.
Since you want me to disband the Redwolf Bandits, I am now homeless.
My only choice is to stay by your side,” said Mo Mo with an expression of someone who had been terribly wronged.

“A late-stage Transformation Realm expert like you will be homeless?” Xiang Shaoyun laughed.

“Criminals like us will be hated and hunted wherever we go.
After our disbandment, my enemies will definitely come looking.
I might as well take this chance to get myself a new backer while I can still do it.
No matter what, I can still be of some sort of help to you, young hero,” said Mo Mo seriously.

That's right.
Mo Mo had used the short time she had to think of her next step.
With the disbandment of the Redwolf Bandits, she wished to stay by this youth's side and serve him.
That would be better than being completely aimless and homeless.
In any case, she was already tired of life as a bandit.
She wanted to have a taste of how a different life felt.

“Disband your underlings first.
Then we'll talk.” Xiang Shaoyun did not give a direct answer, and it caused Mo Mo to feel somewhat nervous.
She kept having a feeling that Xiang Shaoyun looked down on her, but since he hadn't outright rejected her, there was still hope. 

She did as told and gathered all the bandits before announcing the disbandment.

These bandits were already used to the life of banditry.
Disbandment made them feel like they were children being kicked out by their parents.
Suddenly, all of them were at a loss, not knowing what to do next.

After a momentary silence, chaos erupted.
Some were still feeling lost, some were feeling angry, some were willing to leave…all sorts of emotions erupted.
A lot of the bandits started raging and scolding Mo Mo for being a coward, scolding her for swearing fealty to a little kid, among other things.

Mo Mo did not bother shouting back at them.
She merely erupted her cultivation base and slashed her sword, leaving a terrifying gap on the ground.
The sight terrified the bandits into quickly leaving with their mouths shut.

No matter what, Mo Mo was once the second head.
The fear they once had for her still remained.
Xiang Shaoyun watched on as everything unfolded.
Inwardly, he thought to himself, This woman is quite capable it seems.

“Stupid kid.
Disbanded bandits are still bandits.
They will still kill and pillage.
Doing this will only harm more innocents,” suddenly, a voice rang out right beside Xiang Shaoyun's ear, greatly alarming him.
