Shen Xinya narrowed her eyes and turned her gaze toward the source of the voices. Seeing Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue slowly approaching, their hair slightly wet and their skin shiny and slightly rosy due to the fact that they had just stepped out of the shower, which gave them another point of charm, her eyes flashed dangerously.
Although Shen Xinya was willing to put aside her pride as a woman after much effort, consideration, and other aspects difficult to describe, the matter of becoming the empress in charge of the emperor’s (Xie Feng) harem was something she was not willing to give in to. She might be kind and gentle, but hidden inside her was a domineering personality that in no way lost out compared to that of Xie Feng.
Shen Xinya walked towards Xie Yao and looked her straight into her eyes as she said, "You dare to say that I should be happy that you are willing to share him with me?" with a slightly mocking smile she continued, "The first one to meet Xiao Feng, is me. The first woman he ever really loved is also me... So, the one who should feel grateful here is you, don’t you think?"
She did not wait for Xie Yao’s reply and looked at Gu Qianxue. A seductive smile that Xie Feng had never seen on her before appeared on her face and she slowly said, "As for what you said... Your love for him might be as strong as you say, but I wonder if you could continue to love him with the same intensity and even greater intensity if you were separated from him for a decade, not even knowing if you could see him again and not hearing his voice... As for bed business, that will have to be seen in the future."
Xie Feng was dumbfounded as he watched the scene unfold before his eyes.
What the heck!?
Although he already knew Shen Xinya’s temperament and knew that she was an extremely arrogant and proud woman, it seemed that this pride only grew more as the years went by. In fact, Xie Feng was incredibly surprised because even he could feel a slight suppressive atmosphere surrounding her.
If Xie Feng was surprised, then it was easy to imagine Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue’s reaction; they were both shocked beyond words. The two beauties were stunned... Neither of them expected that the modest and polite demeanor Shen Xinya displayed in public was simply one of the two sides of the same coin.
The corner of Gu Qianxue’s mouth twitched slightly and she said softly, "Xie Yao..."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Yes, it seems we have no choice." Xie Yao didn’t even need Gu Qianxue to finish her speech and nodded.
Xie Feng could feel his back drenched in cold sweat as he watched things go from north to south. A moment ago there was a romantic and slightly provocative atmosphere, but in a matter of seconds everything seemed to turn into a war camp.
Before it all turned into pandemonium, Xie Feng made a wise decision.
"Well... We don’t have class tomorrow but I’m suddenly a bit sleepy so I’m going to bed!" Xie Feng said timidly while pretending to yawn. Even without looking back, Xie Feng could imagine the disdainful face of the three beauties. But as a smart man, he knew which battles to fight and which not to fight.
"Oh, right!" Xie Feng exclaimed, stopping midway. He looked at Shen Xinya and pointed, "Xinya, the room opposite mine is where Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue sleep. You can take the one you like best. They are all clean and tidy. Tomorrow we can go shopping and buy some clothes for you.. After all, even though you brought a small suitcase, you couldn’t have brought a lot of things in there, right?"
Shen Xinya looked at him deeply for a few seconds, but in the end she sighed and temporarily decided not to continue with the previous matter.
"In that case, I’ll take the room next to yours." She decided as she gently pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. Then, she smiled in a strange way "Indeed, there are many things I’m missing here. However, you don’t need to worry because Yin Yue will come tomorrow and bring my belongings."
Although Xie Feng felt that there was something off about her smile, he temporarily couldn’t think of anything so he pushed that thought to the back of his mind and simply nodded.
After telling the three beauties good night, Xie Feng went straight to the shower with a happy smile.
The next thing he did after returning to bed was to turn on the silver necklace that adorned his neck. The green light came on and soon his consciousness slowly faded away.

[Welcome to the Samsara world. Wish you a happy reincarnation].
Honestly speaking, Xie Feng had intended to go straight to sleep after dinner and shower. However, the events that happened right after dinner had left his blood boiling so that even if he tried to sleep it was likely that he would not be able to close his eyes easily.
Shen Xinya’s arrival and acceptance was a great surprise and indescribable joy to Xie Feng and, since he knew that due to his agitated emotions he would not have the capacity to fall asleep in comfort, he preferred to log back into the game.
In any case, with his constitution, going several days without sleep was not a problem at all.
Xie Feng summoned Ferghana’s horse and Ling Long. After activating his skills to boost his speed, he disappeared from his position in the blink of an eye and went deeper and deeper into the caverns.
Even though Ling Long could not change into her human form again until several hours later, he still chatted with her and told her many things about the real world.
Ling Long also listened to him as she settled into his hug. Her two big blue eyes glittered with curiosity and occasionally she moved her little paws making puh puuh sounds as if she was trying to communicate with him. She clung to him, clearly happy that he was coming back so soon, as she knew that generally after he left he would only return several hours later.
Xie Feng and Ling Long rode along without a care in the world. For the whole of the previous week, he had been following the path marked by the ancient map with great care not to take the wrong path; otherwise who knows where he would eventually end up. Moreover, not once had they encountered any monsters along the way, so while Xie Feng’s guard was not 100% off, it was true that he was quite relaxed.
Along the journey he encountered millions of tiny Moonlight Stones. If a player with the intermediate grade Mining skill arrived here, they would easily become a rich person overnight. However, considering how well hidden this place was and how dangerous the poisonous lake was, it was unlikely that such a thing would happen.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven Xie Feng with his high HP would have died in that poison-ridden lake were it not for the fact that he was very lucky and found the right path on his first try; not to mention other players with much less HP than him.
Approximately two or three hours later, Xie Feng dismounted Ferghana’s horse and watched the scene in front of him with fervent eyes.
The sun was shining brightly, the sand surrounded the whole place and the lush trees were swaying gently.
After a week of not seeing sunlight and breathing humid cave air, Xie Feng was tempted to roar to the skies... Finally, after so much effort and boredom for a little more than seven continuous days, he was very close to his final destination.
Curious, Xie Feng opened the map to see his current position and sucked in a breath of cold air when he realized that he was actually very close to the east of the Adastreia Continent.
In fact, a few hours of riding would take him directly to Lumence City, another of the five major cities whose importance to the NPCs was in no way inferior to Eminentis City.
Of course, for the players, Eminentis City was much more important because it was the initial city for all players on the Chinese server.
Even so, Xie Feng secretly decided to make a trip to that city to see how magnificent it was. Who knows, maybe he might come across something interesting. After all, he was undoubtedly the first player to go that far.
One had to know that to get here one had to pass through the territory of many high level monsters. Even Xie Feng could die if he was careless, forget about the other players. If it wasn’t because he traveled countless kilometers underground, then his journey would have been by no means so simple and easy.
Xie Feng looked at the ancient map again and after confirming his directions and confirming the path he should take next, he let Ling Long go back to the pet space and took out his spear.
He approached near the shore of the huge endless ocean and watched for a few minutes.
Thousands of different species and countless dangers lurked in the waters of the Samsara world. Even the emperor of the continent, whose strength was in the God rank, did not dare to go too deep into the waters and act rampant.
Precisely because the ocean waters were fraught with danger it was extremely difficult for players from different continents to attack the territory of other players, thus creating a war between different Battle Zones. Before players could create certain means of transportation and gather enough resources and manpower, no one would commit the folly of adventuring into the sea, because doing that was no different from seeking death.
However, it was not as if Xie Feng had any more options he could pick and choose about.
