After a sleepless night, Xie Feng went to the university with Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue. There, he handed over the tickets for VIP seats at Shen Xinya's concert to his three friends as he had promised the day before. Then, Xie Feng looked for Mu Wuying and gave her the rest, telling her that she could give them to her friends if she liked.

After midday, he and the two beauties returned home. There, Han Xue Nai was waiting for them with a cheerful smile and lunch ready.

​​

The small but mighty girl had spent the night, sleeping between Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue. From her attitude, it didn't look like she would be leaving soon; but Xie Feng wasn't upset. He felt very grateful to Han Xue Nai, since thanks to her he had not made a fatal mistake that he might regret forever.

"Xue Nai, do you play Samsara Online?" Xie Feng asked after lunch. The reason he didn't ask if she knew about the game was because it had been Han Xue Nai herself who had recommended him to reach the top of Heaven of Samsara and obtain the seven legendary pearls, therefore, it was obvious enough that she knew about the existence of the game.

"Mm? Nope." She shook her head as she got down from the chair.

"Do you want to play with us? I have a big house in that world too, I'm sure you'll have fun." Xie Feng tried to coax the girl.

"But, handsome big brother... Xue Nai doesn't have a gaming device." She looked at him with sparkling eyes and said something Xie Feng didn't expect.

After blinking several times somewhat dumbfounded, Xie Feng laughed out loud before slowly saying, "I didn't expect that you, who told me those strange advice before, don't even have a gaming device!.... But it's okay, it's not hard to obtain it. Give me a moment."

Xie Feng walked away and started making some phone calls. About five minutes later, he returned to the living room with a casual smile and said, "Done. In about an hour someone should arrive with the gaming device and the necessary apparatus to identify your DNA."

"Oh!" Han Xue Nai exclaimed cheerfully. She ran to Xie Feng and surprised him with a tight hug, "Now I'll be able to play with you and the beautiful big sisters!"

Although he was somewhat surprised by the show of affection and happiness, Xie Feng didn't think too much about it and simply smiled. He gently patted the girl's sleek hair and slowly said, "We'll all connect together, for now let's go eat some ice cream."

Han Xue Nai nodded, just in time to see Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue bringing four fruit ice creams. Although the weather was cold outside, inside the house it was so comfortable that everyone had to be in light clothing... Eating ice cream in this cold weather, watching the rain fall from the comfort and warmth of his home together with his loved ones, was undoubtedly a small luxury for Xie Feng; however, he had no way of knowing how joyful Han Xue Nai, who had always been alone, felt... To her, the joy was so great that playing with moon and stardust in outer space, a feat that would delight countless people, was insignificant in comparison.

Although Xie Feng did not know about Han Xue Nai's joy, he was at least adult enough to think things through carefully before acting. Even if Han Xue Nai was powerful, the fact that she was a mere eleven years old girl with a childish mentality did not change in the slightest, so he simply did not feel relaxed leaving her alone in the house while he along with Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue had fun playing Samsara Online. That was why he decided to have her play with them; that way, they could all be in the same world and even if they weren't always together they could easily communicate with each other.

...

Only forty minutes later, a beautiful woman arrived with the necessary devices to make all the arrangements for Han Xue Nai to finally start playing with them.

After the pretty woman registered Han Xue Nai's DNA, she handed her a beautiful pink necklace and left.

"Yay! I love pink!" The little girl placed the necklace above her head and took it in her hands with a smile.

Well, although Xie Feng didn't know what Han Xue Nai's favorite color was, most young girls loved pink and even if it wasn't her favorite color, she shouldn't hate it; it was for these reasons that while making some calls, he told the person in charge that the necklace should be pink.

"Okay, we should go." Xie Feng stood up and extended both arms to shake off the accumulated laziness from sitting around doing nothing. "Hu Chen and the others should be waiting for us."

Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue stood up as well and nodded with beautiful smiles on their faces. Ever since Xie Yao got the Cedar of Hope yesterday, she always wanted to play to be able to help Xie Feng.

[Welcome to Samsara world. Wish you a happy reincarnation].

The small empty room was illuminated with three flashes of white light and Xie Feng together with the two beauties logged into the virtual world at the same time.

After looking at his surroundings and confirming that there was indeed nothing strange, Xie Feng looked at Xie Yao and asked, "Did you explain to Xue Nai?"

"We did." Xie Yao nodded and said slowly, "We told her that in order to play with us she had to reach level ten. She said she would soon catch up with us."

Xie Feng chuckled and said nothing more, heading for the exit.

"It's about time!" Was the first thing the three guys who were bored waiting for Xie Feng and the two beauties to connect said.

...

After finishing chatting with Slekpnir, the white-bearded gnome elder, Xie Feng and the rest of his team finally learned how to get out of this place. Since it was a dungeon, there had to be some portal somewhere, that was what Xie Feng thought, but it wasn't as simple as he thought.

Although there was indeed a portal, there was a strange beast sleeping nearby so it was very likely that if they got too close the beast would wake up from its lethargy and start attacking them relentlessly.

Still, it was not as if they had any choice but to do it, so after learning the information, Xie Feng and the rest prepared to leave.

The little gnome girl, Emir, looked somewhat heartbroken when she heard that Xie Feng and the others were leaving; apparently, she had grown fond of the people who saved her life yesterday. But after Xie Feng assured her that he would return in the near future, the girl was finally willing to let them go.

Although Slekpnir and Daroock were skeptical about whether he could return or not, Xie Feng didn't bother to explain anything. With the Void Breaking Stone, he could return to this dungeon without any problems.

The group set off from the mountain where the members of the gnome race lived, heading northwest. On the way they encountered all kinds of snow, ice, and water type beasts; they fought for a long time, between yesterday and today they gained enough experience for everyone to go up a level, with Xie Yao leveling up twice thanks to her passive skill Daughter of Heaven, which increased the amount of experience received by twice the amount.

Before, Xie Feng wondered why this world was called 'World of Snow and Rocks' if there wasn't even a rock monster, but after meeting the gnome race he finally understood the true reason behind this dungeon's name.

After walking for over six hours, occasionally stopping to fight monsters, the group of six finally saw a beast about five meters long and about ten meters tall resting on the snow with its eyes closed.
