Samsara Online-Novel

BANG!

The emperor’s body struck the hard ground fiercely, raising a huge cloud of dust in the process. Because the earth in this world was unbreakable as there was no power capable of overcoming the limitations that the system firmly imposed, the hardness of the ground was countless times harder than on planet Earth!

One could then try to imagine that, even feeling 5% of the total pain, the amount of pain that the emperor must have felt upon impacting so hard after being attracted by so much gravitational force was surely not a negligible pain!

"How dare you!!!" The emperor’s roar thundered across the entire battlefield.

When the dust cloud finally settled, the noble Human Emperor once again became visible to all. However, at this point, his nobility could no longer be seen anywhere as his eyes seemed to be bloodshot as he stared at Yang Li’er like a demon thirsty for fresh blood.

In fact, no one doubted that if the emperor could move Yang Li’er would be torn apart by his sword.

"Hmph... Now let’s see if you learn to respect people." Yang Li’er sneered. Her beautiful face and that mocking smile were extremely attractive when put together so instead of causing anger many would surely end up being delighted. While looking at the emperor from a superior position, she scoffed, "Old dog, do you think we are your subordinates? Open your eyes and clear your mind of that fantasy in which you live! We, players, are not puppets that you can command, order, and treat as you please!"

Yang Li’er’s words seemed to contain a kind of enchantment magic as the over two million players who had gathered began to noisily shout their approval. Many players even began to slam their swords against their armor to cause even more chaos than there already was.

That’s right! We players are not your minions or your pets!

The players had been enraged for a long time since the emperor’s words and ungrateful attitude had left them with an extremely bad taste in their mouths as if they had eaten something bad.

What the hell?! They risked their lives, gave their best effort, most of them even lost a level after being slaughtered... All to fight the Abyssal Dragon and protect the NPCs. But in the end, forget about receiving a simple and single word of thanks, instead, they were treated as if they were a freak!

Yang Li’er’s words seemed to have stirred up the bee hive as the players began to close the circle around the NPC soldiers more and more while looking at them with murderous intent without caring about the fact that not long ago they had been their allies.

Although all the players knew that the odds of defeating this army of soldiers of only fifty thousand men were extremely small and almost non-existent even when their numbers were much more overwhelming in comparison, the blood of each player seemed to have turned on some kind of switch as they could all feel their hot bodies demanding release and, at this point there was only one way to release all that anger and frustration.

Battle!

Only battle and the clash of swords could soothe and cool the burning blood they felt at this point!

"SILENCE!!!"

An extremely powerful voice filled with dominance echoed throughout the battlefield, traveling several miles away and entering the ears of every distant person.

The NPC soldiers stopped their movements in their tracks as if they were robots whose power button had been turned off and the players unconsciously stopped as well upon hearing the roar brimming with power and authority.

"Y-Your Majesty..." A level 99 golden-armored soldier with the leadership of several thousand men looked at the king with surprise in his expression.

King Hu Yi’s face was a mixture of anger, fear, sorrow, disappointment, and many other complicated emotions that were simply impossible to fully comprehend.

"Did you all forget who was the person who revived you?!" King Hu Yi looked at the NPC soldiers and roared like an enraged lion: "Is this the way this king instructed you? Eh?!"

The soldiers had clearly never seen the King of the North so enraged or at least not in a long time. They all froze as surprise and disbelief flashed in their eyes. However, that surprise and disbelief soon turned to embarrassment and hesitation.

"Soldiers, SHEATHE YOUR SWORDS!" King of the North shouted and his voice boomed like a hellish thunder in the middle of the battlefield.

Without hesitation, the soldiers sheathed their swords and the spears that were pointed outward in preparation to attack were immediately withdrawn. Shields were removed and each soldier looked at the man in front of them with complicated eyes.

King of the North looked at the soldiers for what seemed like an eternity before saying quietly and more calmly: "That girl over there is responsible for reviving all of you. Thanks to her, you will be able to see your wives, your children, your parents, your girlfriends, your friends again... Now tell me, do you think that if these people, these players, really wanted to be our enemies they would have bothered to help us to stop the Abyssal Dragon? That girl would have bothered to revive her own enemies?"

The soldiers looked at the person pointed out by the king and saw a woman with an extremely seductive body and whose face was covered by a pretty pink rabbit mask. However, every soldier could imagine that the beauty behind that mask was definitely angelic as the aura surrounding this woman was holy and sacred as if she was the one sent by God.

Xie Yao also looked at the NPC soldiers with mixed feelings. She was happy to revive all of them... But if these people raised their swords against the man she loved, then she would rather kill them all if possible.

The NPC army lowered their heads in shame and did not respond to the king’s words.

"King Hu Yi, you don’t need to blame them." Xie Feng took a step forward and approached the king. As he looked at the soldiers, he said in a deep voice, "Every one of these men is worthy of being called a real man. To dare to step forward knowing that the only destiny awaiting them is death... They are worthy of my admiration."

"Shiva, you..." King Hu Yi sighed and shook his head.

In fact, the king knew that the NPC soldiers were not the culprits here. After all, they were all trained and practically lived for the main purpose of protecting these lands and the human race from any possible danger; this was the upbringing they received from a young age and naturally, it was not easy to change. Xie Feng’s threat-filled words had unconsciously awakened the desire to protect these soldiers, that was all.

Of course, it was not Xie Feng’s fault either.

The only thing Xie Feng had said was reality and while he might be selfish he had always admitted that he was a selfish man and not a particular saint. If the emperor had really attacked back then, Xie Feng could not have protected Mu Wuying in any way considering his current condition in which he was just a weak player whose movement and attacking skills were temporarily out of service... And if Emperor Xuan Liuxian really had killed one of his loved ones before him, it was very possible that Xie Feng would go mad with rage and really end up annihilating mankind at the first moment that he gained enough power to do so.

Now? Such a thing was naturally impossible. But, in the future, it would not necessarily be so.

With the pearls, the full power of the Calamity Spear, with the powerful and mysterious Ling Long by his side and with the help of his loved ones... Xie Feng was sure that sooner rather than later he would be able to take on all humans.

It was just that if possible he did not want to get to the point of having to provoke a massacre to achieve his goals.

Xie Feng turned around and looked at the emperor who was trying to stand up but whose efforts ended up failing miserably.

The Abyssal Dragon was a Saint grade boss whose power was countless times higher than Xuan Liuxian’s and whose physical body was infinitely more powerful than his... However, even the Abyssal Dragon was suppressed by the earth mages and could only walk and move at slow speeds on the ground thanks to his powerful draconic body or he wouldn’t even be able to take a step forward. let alone the emperor whose body was that of a naturally weak human.

"If we really want to look for a culprit in all this, the person is right there, don’t you think?" Xie Feng’s voice was filled with naked disdain and the respect an emperor deserved could not be felt anywhere in his words.
