Samsara Online-Novel

"Interesting."

The emperor chuckled as he heard the players’ battle cry and, although he could not see the expression on his opponent’s face because he was covered with a mask, he could imagine an arrogant smile on that face he wanted to crush.

"It will be even more interesting soon." Xie Feng replied in a flat tone of voice. He knew that even though the emperor was smiling, what he wanted most was probably to slaughter him a million times over.

"Little idle chatter, see to it that your kind retires." The emperor waved his hand before looking at King Hu Yi and ordering in a stern voice, "Hu Yi, take your men away. My mood at the moment is lousy, to say the least, and I fear my attacks might get a little out of control."

The Human Emperor’s words were clear enough for even a five year old to understand; "I don’t think I can control my attacks and some people might die."

King Hu Yi’s face changed upon hearing this and after giving Xie Feng a last complex look he retreated to give orders.

On the other hand, Xie Feng approached his group and the first thing he did was to look at Yao Mei. However, even before he had a chance to say or ask anything, she nodded softly and said in a low voice, "I’ll talk to my brother."

"I’m sorry to bother you again." Xie Feng looked at her gratefully and nodded.

Not only had he had to trouble her to contact her brother during the Abyssal Dragon problem, but now he also needed her to step forward.

While Xie Feng’s influence was not small, the two biggest guilds here were the Yao Family’s God of Heaven guild and the Nangong Family’s Sacred Wings guild; both were families that Xie Feng did not get along particularly well with and in fact, could be said to be enemies.

Being the two strongest guilds with the most members present, Xie Feng needed the leaders of those guilds to move back.

"I will also start moving." Mu Wuying approached Xie Feng and gently caressed his face through the mask while looking at him with tender eyes.

"Thank you very much for everything so far." Xie Feng took her hand between his and gently caressed it as he assured her, "I’ll spoil you later."

"That’s the best reward I can hope for." After giving him a beautiful smile that left many players dumbfounded, Mu Wuying turned around and left together with her cousin Mu Yin to give orders to the female players of her own guild.

"Make sure you don’t lose." Yang Tian gave him a thumbs up and turned around to leave to give orders as well.

Yang Li’er looked at Xie Feng and gritted her teeth as she said, "No matter what, you have to kick that old dog’s ass. Otherwise, I won’t let you go!"

Then, she turned around and ran away.

Xie Feng looked at Yang Li’er’s back unsure whether he should laugh or cry and in the end ended up softly shook his head as he secretly thought: Girl, it’s not like you can do anything to me anyway.

"Then we’ll be waiting for you." Shen Xinya said such words and turned around, slowly walking away.

Xie Yao and the other girls also gave him a look full of confidence and followed after her. However, Gu Qianxue stopped halfway and shouted loudly, "If you beat that old dog, tonight I will-"

Fortunately, before she could say words capable of making anyone blush with embarrassment, Xie Yao and Shen Xinya reacted in time and forcibly dragged her away.

"Haha..." Xie Feng couldn’t help but laugh lightly and if someone could see his expression at this moment they would probably be surprised by the carefree look on his face.

It was as if the person he was about to face was not the Human Emperor, a powerful God grade boss, but as if he was about to face a harmless little rabbit.

But in fact, the reason why he wasn’t worried was because at this point it didn’t matter whether it was Saint grade or level 1 monster as the outcome would be almost the same and the only difference would be the impact on the crowd as Xie Feng would not be affected in any way.

Although neither Xie Yao nor any of her beloved ones knew what Xie Feng had in mind to dare to challenge the strongest human being on this continent when he had obviously already used all his strongest attack skills and even the Bright Light Barrier skill were on cooldown, they all wholeheartedly trusted him.

No matter if it was Xie Yao who had been together with Xie Feng for so many years, no matter if it was Gu Qianxue who had only known Xie Feng for a little over two months but felt like she had known him for a lifetime, nor did it matter if it was Shen Xinya who had been separated from him for so many years only to meet again recently; they were all certain that since he dared to speak with such confidence and arrogance, then victory definitely belonged to him.

As for Mu Wuying, she probably hadn’t even thought about it since to her Xie Feng was everything.

...

...

Thirty minutes later, players and soldiers were ordered.

The players and NPC soldiers had retreated several hundred meters away and a huge circle had formed, leaving a gigantic ring where the strongest player and the strongest human being of Adastreia Continent, the leader, and emperor of mankind would face off in combat.

"Who do you think will win?" Nangong Lei asked as he folded his arms and looked forward with an indifferent gaze.

"Hard to say." Yao Zenyu shook his head before looking towards the arena and speaking his thoughts, "Although that emperor is arrogant, in fact, we can’t deny that he has the qualifications... For better or worse, he is still one of the greatest powers on this continent and if we leave aside the Saint grade bosses he is technically the absolute peak."

"Mmh." Nangong Lei thought about it for a moment before nodding slightly.

Although Yao Zenyu hadn’t specifically said anything, what he said was enough for anyone to realize that from his point of view it was impossible for Shiva to come out on top.

The root of his thinking did not stem from the hatred he felt, it stemmed from logic. After all, Xie Feng was only a level 31 player and the Human Emperor should definitely be at the peak of level 99 or even have already reached level 100, which was the maximum. How were Xie Feng’s attacks supposed to reach him with such a disparity then?

As if the aforementioned was not enough, Shiva had already used a lot of powerful skills and since he was forced to stop attacking the Abyssal Dragon, it was natural to assume that he no longer had any cards under the sleeve, or else he would have used them before.

However, although Yao Zenyu was being extremely logical and had put his hatred aside to draw such a conclusion, a baby-soft voice disagreed with his deduction.

"Xie Feng will win."

Yao Zenyu turned his head slowly to the side, his eyes were filled with disbelief as he had recognized that voice. The owner of that voice was a person who usually never spoke and even he could go more than a year without hearing even a single word from her mouth; Yao Mei, his younger sister.

She... She had just spoken? This was the first time he had heard her voice in over six months not counting the occasion of her birthday where she had been forced to speak by circumstances; even before that, when she had informed him of the Abyssal Dragon’s attack and when she had informed him of the emperor’s words she had only passed it on to him by written message.

But she had just spoken and worst of all, she had spoken to say such words... She had actually spoken to him for the first time in so long but it was to support his worst enemy and the man he hated the most!

Yao Zenyu’s body shuddered and his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
