Samsara Online

"Oh?" Yao Zenyu did his best to control his facial expression and made sure that the tone of his voice did not reveal in the slightest the emotions he was feeling as he looked at his younger sister and asked, "Little Mei, on what basis do you say that? As a player I naturally expect him to win, however realistically and objectively his chances of coming out victorious are nil no matter how you look at it."

Yao Mei on the other hand did not look at him and continued to stare at the battlefield. After a few seconds of silence, her answer was brief but concise: "Because he is Xie Feng."

Although Yao Mei had only spent a little over two weeks together with Xie Feng’s group, she had already noticed what kind of person he was; he usually smiled but in reality, could become furious in the next instant for the smallest reason like a childish kid who had no control over his own attitudes. However, he was also an honest person who said things directly and did not underestimate or disdain anyone no matter how insignificant the other person was.

Yao Mei had seen how respectfully Xie Feng treated the employees of the restaurants they went to for meals even though his status was infinitely superior. Such a person who was arrogant by nature but at the same time respected and did not look down on those below him, such a person who was smart enough to grow a multi-million dollar business in just two years would naturally not look down on someone if he believed that they were superior.

Although Yao Mei did not know how, the fact that Xie Feng dared to look down on the emperor meant that he had his means.

Hearing his younger sister’s answer, Yao Zenyu gritted his teeth to the point where if this wasn’t a virtual avatar his mouth would be bleeding by now.

How close they became in such a short time?! Yao Zenyu thought with hatred. For her to say such words and with such confidence, it could only mean that she had to know him well enough... But it was only two weeks! How much can two people get to know each other in only half a month of time!!!!

Yao Zenyu’s mind was in chaos and his memory couldn’t help but go back to the time when he tried to approach the little black fox back then and the illusion he got caught up in.

It is not good, I have to tell father to call little Mei back to Beijing! Yao Zenyu made up his mind as he looked at Mu Wuying with eyes filled with uncontrollable passion.

Before, he hated Xie Feng for humiliating him in public, but that hatred had now multiplied countless times! His own blood sister seemed to be closer to a stranger whom she had just met not long ago and the woman he had loved since childhood seemed to be under some kind of strange spell... For Yao Zenyu, who had always had everything since he was a child and who was practically an imperial prince, to lose was simply unforgivable and unacceptable!

Of course, Yao Mei had no idea what her older brother Yao Zenyu was thinking, and even if she did it was unlikely that she would care too much. She was just looking forward, waiting expectantly for the next battle.

In the center of the great circle cleared by the crowd.

Human Emperor Xuan Liuxian stood with his back straight and his head raised as he gazed into the distance, clearly not putting the enemy before him in his eyes. In his right hand, his golden sword that matched his imperial robe was pointed towards the ground, with no intention of making the first move.

On the other hand, Xie Feng was standing in gold-grade armor that looked extremely ugly in front of the emperor’s imperial robe. His hands were free as there was no weapon and he had even removed his gloves.

After a moment of silence, the emperor finally opened his mouth and slowly said, "If these were normal times, this seat would praise you for your bravery. However, since you dared to disrespect this seat, this seat can only kill you."

"Hehe..," Xie Feng laughed. His laugh was somewhat strange, a laugh that the emperor could not understand. "If your majesty wishes to have a battle to the death, then how about we wait two days? During these two days, you can meet with the King of the North and learn about everything that happened during the last few years in the northern Adastreia Continent and two days later we can fight to the death in the central arena of Eminentis City where all the citizens can see us. How about it?"

"Em?" The emperor blinked in surprise and finally looked at Xie Feng. With a smile full of disdain, he sneered, "What’s wrong? Could it be that you’re afraid to fight this seat now? You finally realized the difference in power?"

"No, no... Nothing like that." Xie Feng shook his head and slowly explained, "If it was a day ago, I actually wouldn’t have any confidence in killing you at all... But not long ago I obtained the ability to threaten existences of your level."

+

In fact, if it was the past Xie Feng would never dare to accept a battle to the death against a God grade boss like Xuan Liuxian. But after defeating Hai Lun in the ocean, Xie Feng had obtained the ability to seriously threaten the life of such a grade powerhouse; at the very least, Xie Feng was 50 to 60% certain to kill Xuan Liuxian.

However...

"However, 90% of my skills are currently on cooldown." Xie Feng continued slowly, ignoring the frown on the emperor’s face. "During the battle against the Abyssal Dragon, in order to try to win, I was forced to use my most powerful attack skills and even suffered a punishment that caused me to lose three levels after activating a forbidden skill."

"Heh... You’re still talking nonsense."

The emperor shook his head as he sighed. He clearly still didn’t believe anything the king or Xie Feng said. From his point of view, someone with such a weak aura could never threaten the Abyssal Dragon, an existence that even he himself could not defeat, let alone threaten with death.

Xie Feng chuckled before making an inviting gesture, "Your majesty will know whether I am lying or not in two days when I am at my peak strength. At that time, you and I can fight to the death. What do you think then?"

"This emperor has no spare time, brat!" Xuan Liuxian finally began to lose patience. What was the point of waiting two days to have a duel whose outcome he already knew?. "Since you challenged this emperor and claim not to have your skills available, then what do you want to do?"

"One minute."

Xie Feng’s voice rang across the battlefield.

"One minute?" Xuan Liuxian frowned and suddenly didn’t know why he had a premonition that something was amiss.

Xie Feng looked at the emperor and said in an icy voice, "If you can’t kill me, an ant seventy levels lower and whose grade is incomparable to yours, then you must publicly apologize for your treatment towards the players in the central arena of Grandeux City when we. players, reach level 50 and it’s time for the martial arts competition. During this minute, I will not even move from here."

Surviving a whole minute of attacks from a God grade powerhouse without even moving? The crowd gasped noisily and looked at the unarmed young man as if they were looking at someone who had just escaped from a psychiatric facility.

"Really... The arrogance drove him crazy." Yao Zenyu shook his head and looked sideways at his younger sister to see her reaction. However, he was disappointed to see her beautiful face indifferent as always and with no intention of responding to his words.

Nangong Lei coldly snorted and made no comment. However, his eyes glittered with mockery as he looked at Xie Feng.

Even Xie Yao, Shen Xinya, and Gu Qianxue were dumbfounded and looked at each other as if searching for answers in each other’s eyes. In the end, they could only shake their heads and looked at Xie Feng again, waiting to see what would happen next.

But, what surprised everyone was that the emperor actually hesitated.

His eyes were somewhat erratic and he was looking at Xie Feng as if trying to figure out what was this strange feeling of trepidation he felt.

Detecting the emperor’s hesitation, the NPC soldiers began to murmur and that murmuring soon spread to the players, creating a rather chaotic scene.

One thought couldn’t help but pop into everyone’s mind... A wild thought that normally should never appear.

It could be... Could it be that the emperor really didn’t believe that he had the ability to defeat a low level player in a minute’s time? Worse yet, during that minute that player said he wouldn’t even try to avoid the attacks!

"Could it be that your majesty doesn’t believe you can kill an insignificant ant in one minute?" Xie Feng’s voice brimming with mockery rang out. "If one minute isn’t enough, how about five minutes? Maybe you’ll feel more comfortable that way."

Xie Feng was smart and knew that arrogance for his strength and superior status was Xuan Liuxian’s worst quality and his perdition.

He said he was not going to avoid the attacks... But he didn’t say anything about not counterattacking. Even if his attacks did not cause damage, Xie Feng’s target was different this time.
