Samsara Online Chapter 269

Perhaps, to say that he was being underestimated was not the right word and instead, he was simply being ignored by the newcomers. Xie Feng also knew two essential reasons why this was happening.
The first essential reason for all this was undoubtedly his age. Xie Feng was simply too young! Just like the Gu Family ancestor explained to Xie Feng earlier, the person known throughout the world to be the most talented and break into the ancestor realm was Luiz Fernandez but even he took half a century to reach such a level. Therefore, it was simply impossible for them or anyone else to think that a young man in his early twenties was already at such an overwhelming level of power to defeat Nangong Jun.
Nangong Jun was a person who had lived at least a thousand years so he was quite well known to be a very powerful old monster. The power to control lightning allowed Nangong Jun to control the brain electrodes of weak people to perform actions under his will just as Xie Feng could simply suffocate those who were several times weaker than him. In addition, the movement speed and attack speed as well as the secondary effect of numbness that the lightning caused made Nangong Jun a terrifying person for the vast majority.
The second reason why the newly arrived "Gods" ignored Xie Feng was because in the beginning, when the four ancestors of China released their auras, only Xie Feng stayed still without taking any action. This simply increased people's thinking that he was just another young man like Mu Wuying's group.
"It really is a pity that we missed a battle like this." A wise-looking woman in her fifties sighed regretfully. She looked at Yao Mei and said with a neutral smile, "I see that little baby over there is growing up fast. Probably in 40 years more she could become the sixth guardian of the east.... 'Empress of Fire' Yao Mei is already pretty well known far and wide as one of the most powerful existences out there."
Yao Mei merely stared straight ahead without saying a single word. Even though the woman in front of her had the power to slap her to death, she kept indifferent to everything as if none of what was happening was any of her business. In fact, except for occasional curious glances at Xie Feng, Xie Yao, and Gu Qianxue, she wasn't paying attention to anyone else. From the expression on her face it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.

"Old corpse, I see you're still pure bone as usual." Yao Chu said, breaking the silence for the eastern side.
"Ke ke ke ke ke ke.... Yao Chu, your words are quite cruel." The old skeletal man laughed horribly. "This old man has been eating more lately but no matter how much I get it doesn't seem enough."
Saying that, the old skeleton old man pulled out something inside his robe; it was a human heart.
The young girls screamed in alarm and even Yao Mei's face turned pale when she saw how the old man directed the heart with fresh blood into his mouth; it was obvious that it was a freshly obtained heart.
"On my way here I met a young virgin girl and I couldn't help it ke ke ke ke..... The heart of young virgins really tastes delicious." The old man laughed, enjoying the scared expression of the younger people.
On the other hand, Xie Feng's expression changed and his face became quite ugly. He usually prevented Xie Yao from seeing blood as much as possible, but this unknown old man who looked like a walking corpse was actually doing such an atrocity in front of her.... How could he not be upset?
"Old dog, has anyone ever told you that you are an atrocity?"
Everyone was stupefied when Xie Feng's somewhat annoyed voice echoed out over the sea. Even the people who came to international waters with him from China looked at him with wide eyes; especially the ancestors. Xie Feng might not know the old man but the four of them knew him very well!
The old man's name was unknown but he called himself "Vhan". Vhan was extremely powerful; so much so that even Yang Luoyang who relied heavily on his defense did not dare to take one of his blows casually.
"Oya?"
The skeletal elder, Vhan, looked at the twenty years old young man with some surprise. Since his arrival, just like the rest, Vhan had naturally seen Xie Feng, but just like everyone else; he simply ignored him after a brief glance. Although Xie Feng was standing on the sea making it obvious that he was a skill user, none of the group of newcomers took any skill user seriously.... Even Yao Mei was no exception, let alone a young man unknown to everyone.
From the point of view of all of them, the skill users were simply babies who were just beginning to learn to walk on their own.

Although Xie Feng's words were quite rude, the skeletal elder's reaction was beyond his imagination.
"Ke ke ke ke ke!" Vhan laughed horribly showing his bloody rotten teeth as he looked at Xie Feng and slowly said, "What an interesting young man.... Although I'm generally not interested in men's hearts, I could eat yours.... Unfortunately, you are no longer a virgin."
Vhan shook his head while sighing as if he was regretting something.
This caused all of Xie Feng's hairs to stand on end and the resentment he felt towards this skeletal old man faded to disgust. Such a disgusting person! The farther away, the better!
The place fell silent for a few seconds before another middle aged European-looking man started another conversation.
"By the way... Since that old thing surnamed Nangong had to fight someone a few moments ago and seeing that he's the only one alive.... Then I assume that the enemy was an acquaintance of this kid over there?" the middle-aged man said as he looked at Xie Feng.
In fact, the middle-aged man's words were quite reasonable considering the basic situation. It was obvious that the Yao, Gu, Nangong, Mu, and Yang families were known to all the world powers, therefore, it was natural to assume that they would not fight each other in front of strangers, let alone fight each other to the death; this would cause China and Asia to be greatly weakened.
Keeping all the above matters in mind, it was easy for the "Gods" of other regions to assume that Nangong Jun fought against an unknown enemy and since Xie Feng and Xie Yao were separated from the other families, it was natural to assume that they came here with a kind of master.
As for Xie Yao, a simple glance was enough for everyone to know that she was just a normal person watching as she held onto the young man next to her.
The expressions of the ancestors, patriarchs, and younger people became somewhat strange after hearing the middle-aged man's reasoning.... Reasonable? Yes... But incredibly wrong too!
However, the other people took the silence and the change of expression on the faces of the Chinese people as a silent consent, so they finally turned their attention to Xie Feng.
He received all kinds of looks; sympathy, disdain, ridicule, interest, and many complex emotions through the eyes of the ten strangers. But there was one look in particular that was bothering him too much.
"Do you believe me if I tell you I'll tear your eyes out if you dare look at her that way again?"
Xie Feng's indifferent, confident, and disdainful voice shook everyone's temple timpani. The ten "Gods" looked at him open-mouthed before eight of them began to burst out laughing, looking at him as if he were a clown.
However, two people reacted differently.
The 50 years old wise looking woman removed the neutral smile from her face when she seemed to realize that there was something strange about the situation in front of her. She, unlike 90% of the people who reached such a level of power, never relaxed her guard and never underestimated anyone; precisely thanks to this, the woman who looked 50 years old but had probably lived several centuries noticed that the people of China never said anything about the handsome young man wearing an elegant evening suit.
After some thought, the middle-aged woman was surprised to realize that until now, everything they believed about this young man was simply assumed by themselves! So far, the Chinese old people had said nothing and to every hypothesis about him they were simply taken in silence; neither denying nor nodding... As if they didn't want to get involved in something and were waiting for something interesting to happen.
With a strange shine in her eyes, the woman who looked 50 years old slowly moved away and looked at the other person who wasn't laughing out loud.
Luiz Fernandez.
It was him whom Xie Feng had just threatened.
The Amazon man who was over two meters tall and looked like an iron tower withdrew his gaze from Xie Yao to narrow his eyes at Xie Feng.
"Are you threatening me?"
Bang!
Speaking somewhat broken English, Luiz Fernandez's voice thundered and the sea waves rose several meters high. Unconsciously or consciously, he released some of his aura towards the daring young man with the intention of making him kneel down. Unfortunately...
"Threaten?" Xie Feng scoffed. "Have you ever seen a human being threaten an ant? I was simply warning you, giving you a chance so you can leave here with both your eyes healthy.... But if you don't appreciate it, that's cool with me too!"

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6

Statless
Summary Alexander Weiss, an intelligent and slightly unusual man, always dreamt of becoming a mage. Sadly, reality is harsh and even his best efforts never allowed him to achieve his goal during his lifetime... or did they? One has to be careful what they wish for, lest they might live to see it fulfilled. Description Follow Alex, a man whose pursuit of magic could not even be stopped by his non-magical reality, going as far as to create it himself, only to encounter an unsurmountable obstacle shortly before achieving his lifes goal, denying him all access to these powers. His journey will take him through a miraculous world, full of wonders, magic and manic beasts trying to devour him! He will learn much about this world during his adventures, exploring individual aspects of the System and the various monsters that came from it... or did they? Strong points What you'll get from this novel is the following (read with overly enthusiastic salesman-voice) : • An ending! I'll complete it, no matter what. Well, not "no matter what", but as long as I don't unexpectedly end, this novel won't either! • Good grammar! Might not be perfect, but it's definitely good enough to not detract from the story in the slightest. I'll also fix any reported mistakes as soon as possible, be they grammatical, syntactical or just inconsistencies. • No plot-armor! Or plot-weapons! Or plot-... potions? And no plot-holes! If you see some, it's most likely information that is being witheld for future revelations! But in the (hopefully) very unlikely case of such a vile beast being encountered, please inform me immediately and I'll see to slaying it without grace! (Translation: If you see plot-holes, tell me and I'll fix them) • Logic! [Hidden : Spoilers][Hidden : More Spoilers] [Moved to Chapter [Hidden Spoiler]'s Author's Note] Marvelous, I know! • Blue Boxes! And maybe something more! • Sensible retroactive edits! Not to be confused with radioactive edits! You'll not have to re-read previous chapters, even if they get some major edits. If they were to receive new information, I'll add that very information to the newly released chapters too, in a reasonable way. • Realism! Shocking, I know! Especially considering the tag related to that and the point about "Logic!". This also means that the story will be... well, realistically depicting a pretty messed up world. Don't expect bunnies... at least not cute ones. • Relatively faster paced! No long and boring descriptions of irrelevant stuff. There will be some longer descriptions about important things, but that's gonna be necessary world- and/or character-building! • Short action! Might not be a plus for some, but you won't have to look at a whole (or, god forbit, multiple) chapter describing a fight against the same enemy... • Strategy and hard progression! It's a dog-eat-dog world! No grinding/power-creep! If you're up against three enemies of your level at once, you've already lost! • Understanding! It will be mostly about discovering the wonders of this new world and how it became like that, all while trying to survive. So there will be enough action nonetheless! • Humor! Sometimes dark, sometimes light, always at the worst moment! • Constructive critics, welcome! Destructive critics, nope... I can handle criticism though, so don't go easy on me! Just make sure it's really a mistake when complaining about something. • Will add more in the future! If I can think of more stuff...
