Samsara Online-Novel

A white light illuminated the entire boss’s room for five seconds before disappearing completely. The place soon became silent again.

As for Xie Feng... He did not know how to react. This is the second time the same thing has happened to him since he started playing Samsara Online.

First, the Ring of the God of Destruction. Although the current Ring of the God of Destruction seemed to be becoming obsolete, since Xie Feng does not know how to remove the four seals, it is an undoubtedly godly item. Without it, Xie Feng could never have defeated the Guardian of Hell in the Beginner’s Village.

Moreover, even with four powerful seals suppressing it, the Ring of the God of Destruction was still an immortal-grade object.

But as if the whole world thought Xie Feng was not confused enough, one of the seven legendary and mysterious pearls of the world Samsara had chosen him as its holder.

The Samsara world refers to ALL Samsara Online, and not only to the Chinese Battle Zone. In other words, one of the seven most mysterious and powerful objects in the whole virtual world, has just accepted him as its master.

Xie Feng could assume that the Ring of the God of Destruction had chosen it by chance. After all, his gaming name was the name of the God of Destruction from India. He could even assume that it was due to a number of factors such as; player ID, 10 lucky points at the start of the game. He had also used his initial status points in such a way that the system identified him as a mage.

Even if it’s a bit illogical, he could still accept it. But he could not accept what had just happened.

For what reason, would the Pearl of Light suddenly choose him as its holder? That was a question that would not be answered for a long time.

***

Xie Feng called Ferghana’s horse and put Shui Wuhen, who was still sleeping peacefully, on the animal’s back.

Something that confused Xie Feng is that the system did not attack him when his lips touched Shui Wuhen’s lips. Normally, the system should have killed him with a heavenly lightening. Fortunately for him, it seemed that the system knew that his intentions were pure and had no evil thoughts, otherwise his current level would be zero.

He rode at full speed through the corridors of the cave, risking a blow to the saddle.But he had no other choice, as he could not carry Shui Wuhen all the way.

He ran all over the corridor, dodged, took some hidden paths he found on the way and avoided many monsters. Only after crossing the territory of skeletons and skeleton mages level 50 and above, Xie Feng was able to relax slightly. Even so, he could not relax too much since one or two hits from these monsters are enough to kill him and the girl on the mount.

After approximately two hours of using all of his movement skills, plus the 60 points of movement speed of the Ferghana Horse, Xie Feng saw the small wall of Eternal Wind, indicating not only the end of this mission... It also meant the end of a stage for him.

Who would have thought that a mission given by a female NPC, a mission that gave him no reward, and a mission that he accepted for a moment of kindness, would actually give him so many surprises.

Thinking about it, Xie Feng looked down for a moment and carefully observed the girl who was sleeping leaning against his chest. Even he does not understand why he was so angry at her being hurt. If the reason for his anger were his pride, Xie Feng would understand... But that is precisely why he is confused.

"Wenwen!".

The agitated voice of a woman drove Xie Feng from his inner conflict. As he looked forward, he saw Yue Qingyu, the middle-aged woman who had entrusted him with this mission, running towards him.

More precisely speaking, running towards her sleeping daughter.

Xie Feng stopped Ferghana’s horse and carefully lowered the sleeping girl.

"Shh...".

Xie Feng took a finger to the lips and made a small sound to indicate to Yue Qingyu to avoid making loud noises, so as not to wake up Shui Wuhen. After all, she had been through too much in the last few days... Besides, she will also have to face and accept the death of one of her loved ones soon.

Yue Qingyu put both hands to her mouth to prevent her sobbing from waking up her daughter and nodded repeatedly.

Xie Feng took Yue Qingyu aside and explained everything to her.

From the powerful monsters surrounding a cave, monsters that should not exist, humans killed, his battle against a powerful Shui Xiu.

On his way here, he was considering whether he should tell the whole truth to Yue Qingyu, but finally decided that this poor woman had the right to know what had happened. Therefore, except for the moment when Shui Wuhen almost died, he told her the whole truth.

The only reason he did not tell her this is because the current Yue Qingyu was definitely not in a position to receive any more cruel news. Not after learning that her husband tried to murder her daughter and that the man she had married was a cruel murderer.

"How can it be possible... how can it be possible... Why would he do something like that...?". Yue Qingyu shook her head again and again, not wanting to accept the words of Xie Feng... Not wanting to accept the reality.

But he understood her, so with a bitter smile he could only hope that this woman who was willing to go several days without eating or drinking while waiting for her family, could overcome this challenge.

Xie Feng wanted to tell her that the Pearl of Light that Shui Wuhen had suddenly chose him as its owner, but seeing the current state of Yue Qingyu, he knew that she would not be interested in knowing.

After all, her family was half-crippled. How could she be interested in an object, however legendary it may be.

Xie Feng does not expect the thanks of Yue Qingyu. He got on Ferghana’s horse and after taking one last look at Shui Wuhen, he began to move quickly away from the small town.

’If destiny wants it, we will meet again...’

"Haa!". With a shout to urge the horse to run faster and leaving a cloud of dust behind, Xie Feng continued to ride south.

When Yue Qingyu returned to herself and Shui Wuhen woke up, Xie Feng had already disappeared.

***

After he got far enough away from the Eternal Wind City not to see the walls, an announcement of the system that he didn’t expect sounded in his head.

[Ding!... Mission ’Light in the Darkness’ successfully accomplished. You have obtained hidden reward.]

[You have obtained: ????]

"Well... I don’t know what to think about all this anymore". Said Xie Feng as he continued to ride without stopping. He decided to stop being surprised after what happened to the Pearl of Light... Whether he will make it or not remains to be seen.

"Big sister System, do you like to harass me or do you just want me to have a headache?"

After saying strange words to the sky, Xie Feng continued on through Raging Cow territory, a level thirty-five monster. He didn’t think much of the unknown reward. It was impossible for him to know what those question marks meant.

______________

09: 30 PM.

Xie Feng closed his session and disconnected from the game to have dinner with the two beauties who live with him.

He stared at the familiar white ceiling, as he always does when he wakes up and when he exits from the virtual world, and only after several seconds did he stand up.

However, as he was about to leave the bed to go to the 1st floor, his face turned pale as a sheet and a terrifying amount of pain made Xie Feng’s face contort.

He lay back on the bed and bit the pillow next to him hard, to avoid alarms and to scare the two women with his screams of pain.

"Aghh...!"

Although the pillow did not completely suppress his voice, it was enough to keep his cries of pain from going over the walls.

Xie Feng was a man who was very confident of his endurance, but the pain he felt at this moment was too cruel, so cruel that he did not wish it on anyone.

His body trembled fiercely and he squirmed in bed for almost ten minutes before finally settling down.

"Huff... Huff...Hufff...".

Xie Feng’s chest moved up and down furiously, his face was covered in sweat and even his hair stuck to his forehead. The bed under his body was completely wet and several objects from the nightstand were thrown on the floor.

"What... what was that?... What happened just now?". With his eyes wide open and a little bit of persistent fear, he murmured.

*Bang!*

That’s when the door to his room opened abruptly.
