Samsara Online-Novel

If a watermelon and a coconut fall on your head, which will hurt more...? One would normally think about which fruit would cause more pain, right? Who in their right mind would give the same answer that Gu Qianxue had just given? At least, Xie Feng couldn’t!

Jade blinked in surprise before loudly exclaiming, "Woah! Big Sister, you really are very smart! I wonder why you didn’t replace big brother Shiva more quickly!"

Of course! If a watermelon and a coconut fall on your head, what will hurt will be your head; the watermelon and the coconut will not get hurt! Damn it! Xie Feng felt that the answer made a lot of sense but at the same time he couldn’t help but feel that these questions and answers were created by a person with evil intentions!

"Ding Dong!" Jade once again made a ringing sound as she did every time a person successfully answered one of her questions and clapped her hands happily as she said, "Beautiful big sister, now you and your group have the qualifications to choose one of the remaining holes to head to a random dungeon!"

"Thank you, little sister Jade." Gu Qianxue replied with a beautiful smile that dazzled countless men in the crowd. Even with more than half of her face covered, everyone knew that hidden behind that butterfly mask was a heavenly beauty; after all, Gu Qianxue ranked third in the ranking of beautiful women!

"Yey~ easy and simple." After stepping back and returning together with her team, Gu Qianxue raised her index finger and middle finger in a V-shape as a sign of victory.

"That was amazing!"

"As expected of one of the sisters-in-law, her mind is at a level that us mortals can never comprehend."

"She even responded as fast as the Empress Yao Mei.... Speechless."

The Hu Chen trio began to spit out all kinds of praises without any shame, causing Gu Qianxue to smile even more brightly.

"By the way, my dear Qianxue.... How did you know how to answer those questions? Have you heard of them before?" Xie Feng asked in a weak voice. The four questions he answered after more than two hours of scrabbling around in his mind were all completely and utterly wrong. Meanwhile, Gu Qianxue... she had answered right only two or three seconds after she replaced him.... This difference seemed to be wrong!

"No." Gu Qianxue slightly shook her head and replied in a weak voice. She looked at Xie Feng with a hard to understand smile and comforted him, "Xie Feng, it’s okay you don’t need to worry.... Actually, it’s normal that you don’t know the answers to those questions. My case is a little special, that’s all."

Actually, Gu Qianxue knew that just because Xie Feng couldn’t answer Jade’s questions didn’t mean that he was dumber than her. Rather, it was because he had never encountered this kind of situation before, so he did not know how to think out of the box to solve these questions. He had a habit of using the most direct way to solve problems, but using the most direct way to solve these questions would derail people, completely baffle them and lead them further and further away from the right answer.

The real reason Gu Qianxue knew how to answer Jade’s questions was because in her childhood she played these kinds of games a lot with her mother and father. Since she had lost her eyesight, the early years in Gu Qianxue’s life had been really difficult to overcome, so she often listened to her mother read funny questions while giving her some hints, then Gu Qianxue would have to struggle to answer the questions correctly. After so many years, she naturally became good at these kinds of games.... She could be considered an expert above experts.

Xie Feng shrugged his shoulders with a complex expression and finally let this topic go; he now needed to worry about other things.

"I just hope to find some monsters to vent my sorrows and frustrations." Xie Feng grunted as he slowly advanced towards the three holes that still remained open because the other seven had been occupied earlier.

His words caused Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue to look at each other before a small smile rose on their beautiful faces. As expected from Xie Feng! If words didn’t solve it then his spear will!

"Why do I feel that things will get ugly later on?" Xiao Luo couldn’t help but mutter while looking at the holes with different colors and auras.

One of the holes was almost completely white but there were some traces of gray and deep blue that was barely noticeable; if one didn’t pay enough attention one would easily miss them.

The second hole was yellow like sand. Just by approaching it, you could feel embracing warmth coming from inside the place to which this hole was connected.

The third and last hole available was difficult to describe but Xie Feng and the rest were sure that choosing it was not an option. The reason? This hole was black as night and except for a strange ominous feeling, nothing else could be felt from it.

"I guess the choices aren’t many." Xie Yao forced a smile and looked at Xie Feng for an answer.

"Mm..." Xie Feng rubbed his chin while his gaze swept over both holes. He was deep in thought for a few seconds before remarking, "The white hole will undoubtedly be a cold world, the frost aura is so clear that from here my body can feel it vividly. As for the yellow one... I could bet all my hair that we will be sent to a desert if we walk through this entrance."

After hearing their group leader’s reasoning, they all subtly nodded. In fact, Xie Feng’s thoughts were almost the same as everyone else’s. Now, the question weighing on everyone’s mind was which hole should they choose? This was a question of utmost importance since depending on the difficulty of the world they would be sent to was how quickly they would be able to reach the final dungeon where the little snow fox would apparently be held captive.

"So... Cold or warm?" Xie Feng looked at the girls and asked with a smile that wasn’t a smile.

Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue had miserable puppy dog eyes as they looked at each other helplessly. Such extreme climates were really bad, however, since neither of them were willing to back down and leave Xie Feng alone, without saying a single word they already seemed to have made up their minds.

""Cold!""

Both beauties said at the same time, taking the four men in the group by surprise.

Hu Chen raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but ask, "Just out of curiosity but.... May I ask the reason why both of you chose without even hesitation the cold weather instead of the hot one?"

Surprisingly, the person who answered was Yue Kai. He rolled his eyes and said as if it was obvious, "Of course it’s because of the skin.... Who doesn’t know that sun and heat are the biggest enemies of perfect skin!"

...

Xie Feng and the other three gave Yue Kai a strange look. Even Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue were looking at him dumbfounded. To think that a man actually knew something like that! Everyone was so shocked that for a moment no one knew what to say.

"As expected of you!" Xiao Luo slapped his leg hard and shouted loudly. "A woman in a man’s skin, of course you would know!"

"Hahahaha!"

Yue Kai’s face turned black and everyone started laughing loudly.

[Ding! You have entered a special dungeon: ’World of Snow and Rocks.’]

After passing through the white hole, a system announcement rang in everyone’s head and informed them of the name of the place they were currently in.

Here there was not only snow, but there was also a lot of ice. There were walls of ice at the back that looked extremely hard and resistant. Under their feet, the white snow reached even further than the eye could see and the tall mountains created by the union of countless amounts of snow and ice could be seen in the distance.

Most noticeable to all, however, undoubtedly was....

"How cold!" Hu Chen could not help but scream. His voice echoed and traveled far and wide until it could no longer be heard.

Xie Feng frowned deeply as he looked at Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue. Both of them had turned pale and their previously beautiful reddish lips had turned almost completely purple in a matter of a minute. He easily noticed how they both seemed to be struggling against the terrifying gusts of freezing wind that whipped their small bodies constantly but how could they bear it when even he, an innately hardier man, felt their bones freezing.

At this rate, when their bodies couldn’t take it anymore, the cold would slowly begin to drain their health bars and they would die! Not even in his wildest dreams did Xie Feng ever imagine that the place they would be sent to would be so cold!

"Ke ke ke ke... I knew the money would come to this place..." A laugh suddenly rang out amidst the constant howling of the wind and snow falling to the ground.

Xie Feng unconsciously summoned the Calamity Spear. Without even hesitating he stood in front of Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue as he looked towards the source of the sound.
