Samsara Online-Novel

Rumble...

Several kilometers around the ocean began to rumble fiercely and steam began to rise wildly into the atmosphere due to the high temperatures of the place. The area where the "Gods" of the great part of the world had gathered together had suddenly become a kind of volcano with temperatures so high that just by being near to it without a special suit, a normal person would literally melt like a wax doll... The steam rising to the skies was so hot that a person’s body would turn to ashes within seconds of coming into contact with it.

In fact, only the patriarchs and ancestors could withstand such temperatures from so close, so they quickly covered their descendants to prevent loss. The only exception to this rule were the members of the Yao Family; thanks to their control over fire, the Yaos’ resistance was much higher than what a normal skill user could withstand.

Xie Feng casually surrounded at Xie Yao with a wind sphere, insulating all overwhelmingly high temperatures. The reason he did not care about Gu Qianxue or Mu Wuying was because next to them were extremely strong people who would naturally not allow anything bad to happen to them in their presence.

BANG!!!

The pillar of flames exploded. The small flames began to fall everywhere over the ocean, evaporating several kilometers of water and blocking everyone’s view.

Wooosh!

A gust of wind rushed through the place, dispersing the cloud of steam in a moment and revealing the two people who had disappeared from everyone’s sight. But when everyone finally saw Yao Mei’s current appearance, they gasped with disbelief filling their eyes.

"What... is this...?"

Yao Mei’s appearance hadn’t changed too much except that her hair had become even longer than it already was. However, her "outfit" was the most eye-catching thing. Before, Yao Mei was wearing a light sky-colored dress because like the others, she had not had time to change her clothes, but now there was no sign of that beautiful dress that had attracted the gaze of countless men during the night.

A pair of exotic blood-red long boots covered Yao Mei’s feet up to her knees, leaving her milk-white thighs shining like a pearl in full view. A strange skirt of matching color to the boots covered her waist to the middle of her thighs and a kind of light armor of the same color as the previous two covered her upper body. Yao Mei’s crimson hair danced softly as she held herself aloft with a giant pair of blood-red wings behind her back. She looked incredibly beautiful and her current costume added a brave and powerful charm to the birthday girl.

Those with sharp eyes soon noticed that the strange combat armor that had appeared on Yao Mei’s body were not real objects because if one looked closely you could notice small flashes of fire coming off the garments.

It was obviously something created by Yao Mei herself... Or at least, that was what everyone assumed.

"Just strange clothes won’t make any difference." Luiz Fernandez shook his head and said in a monotone voice. Then, he looked at the Yao Family ancestor and said curiously, "Won’t you do something? I might accidentally kill her if -..."

Luiz Fernandez’s words were cut off abruptly when his eyes widened. In his pupils was reflected a youthful but extremely beautiful face approaching at such high speeds that he, a person who had entered the "Realm of the Gods", found it hard not to be surprised. However, that was all, surprise.... Perhaps, Luiz Fernandez still underestimated Yao Mei after seeing that her power was minuscule in comparison to him.

But this was a big mistake on his part.

Just like before, Yao Mei did not make any noticeable action and simply punched with her right fist forward. However, the result was completely different from before.

BOOM!

Before everyone’s incredulous gaze, Luiz Fernandez’s six-foot tall body was sent flying downward at an astonishing speed as proof of how hard the impact he had just received was.

BANG!

Without being able to control his body, Luiz Fernandez fell into the ocean and his body sank who knows how far below the surface of the water.

Everyone looked at Yao Mei’s small fist with genuine surprise without being able to hide the shock in their hearts.

Powerful!

Extremely powerful!

Compared to the previous situation where even the ancestor of the Yao Family was about to make a move to prevent her from getting hurt, the difference in her power was simply abysmal!

What happened!? Everyone’s mind was in chaos, looking at each other as if they were searching for an answer in the other. Unfortunately, none of them knew anything... Except for Gu Yating.

The Gu Family ancestor looked sideways at Xie Feng in disbelief. He, who could also control the wind of the atmosphere, could do practically anything with the air in every corner of the planet. However, although Gu Yating could create something as delicate as the Water Mirror from before with the union of his water element and wind, he could not influence the bodies of others!

It was true that wind could amplify the power of the other elements; make ice harder, water more powerful at the time of impact, earth firmer... and fire more fiery and powerful. However, knowing and doing were two very different things.

When Yao Mei’s central fire core was in danger of going out at any moment and Yao Xiyu asked for the help of his family’s ancestor, Yao Chu failed to feed Yao Mei’s fire. However, the Yao Family ancestor was not willing to lose such a talented seed so easily; therefore, he sought help from the Gu Family ancestor.

Gu Yating, who controlled the wind, could perhaps revive Yao Mei’s flame.... It was natural that a person with so many years of experience like Yao Chu would have thought of something like this. Therefore, after seeking out Gu Yating and having him agree to help, the two of them secretly returned to Yao Mei’s room.... However, to the disappointment of both of them, Gu Yating could not refuel the flames of the then dying little beauty.

But Gu Yating clearly sensed the movement of the air in the surroundings a moment ago and it was naturally obvious from the control over the element that it was not Gu Pojun’s doing.... Therefore, only Xie Feng could have been the person responsible. But what surprised the Gu Family ancestor the most was that in reality, this young man in his early twenties could actually do something that he, over a thousand years old, could not do!

By strengthening Yao Mei’s flames, the red-haired beauty’s power increased exponentially thanks to Xie Feng’s power. Now, she was at a level where she didn’t have to fear any of the people present!

"Mei’er..." Beiming Fei, Yao Mei’s mother, murmured while looking at her daughter’s change with wide eyes.

Yao Xiyu and Yao Zenyu were in no better condition than the surprised Beiming Fei. They both looked at their familiar with wide eyes, unable to believe the reality in front of them.... Although they both knew that Yao Mei was very powerful, tonight they had seen the power of people like Xie Feng, Gu Yating, and Nangong Jun, broadening their horizons.

But now, she had the power to fight against characters of such magnitude!

Yao Mei completely ignored everyone’s gaze and exclamations of surprise. She also did not chase after Luiz Fernandez or take the opportunity to continue attacking; instead, she turned her small body slightly and looked at Xie Feng intently.

He looked at her with an indifferent smile and from the expression on his face, not only was he not surprised by the terrifying increase in strength she had experienced, but he looked normal as if he knew nothing of what was going on.

But the princess of the Yao Family knew perfectly well that the person who had propelled her flames to another level had been him. When the wind particles entered her body and the eolic elemental force bathed her soul, the feeling Yao Mei experienced at that moment was difficult to be described in words; warmth, security, fear, terror, surprise, disbelief, joy, mighty.... Yao Mei had not experienced such a slide of emotions like she had experienced at that moment.

Even now she felt as if a pair of invisible arms were silently holding her, it was as if a soft and gentle voice was whispering in her ear to continue forward.

Two pairs of eyes, one pair golden as pure as the finest gold and the other pair as red as the most beautiful ruby in the world, looked at each other in silence without saying a single word. But although none of them said anything, it seemed that they both communicated silently since they seemed to be able to sense each other’s thoughts through their eyes.

For a few seconds, the place had become silent and everyone turned their gazes between him and her, realizing that they both seemed in strange synchronicity.... A strange and subtle atmosphere surrounded the place.

BOOOM!!!

A terrifying explosion from the deep water caused everyone to turn their eyes in that direction and the strangely silent atmosphere was completely broken.

BANG!

A pillar of water rose into the sky for a moment before bursting into pieces, revealing a silhouette. His body was wet as were his strange pants, but most striking was a red fist mark with small burns on the person’s right chest.

This person was Luiz Fernandez.

"YOU ARE... COURTING... DEATH!!!"
