Samsara Online Chapter 347
Advertisement
You should know that each of the false gods possessed such dreadful power, enough for humankind to consider them true gods. However, much of that power came from a True God whom they revered and, through the prayer of normal humans, they received small benefits... Of course, the talent and skill of each of them was an extremely important factor in getting where they were as well.
If one or two of these people joined together to attack, even the Rothschild family, a family with several centuries of history and accumulation of power, would suffer a terrible price. Although the Rothschilds possessed military might comparable to that of a world power, the power of normal modern firearms could not compare to the destructive power of the false gods.
Of course, the Rothschild family possessed ultimate weapons capable of making these false gods suffer, however, even then, if several of these false gods attacked them, the Rothschilds would undoubtedly have to pay a bloody price to survive the fury of these loyal worshippers.
However, against all odds, Lucian Rothschild did not seem perturbed by his son's arrogant words.
"However, before you have enough power, you must learn to restrain yourself." Lucian Rothschild pointed out."To lower your head once or twice for a year or two in exchange for obtaining decades and even centuries of glory... Or live with pride and honor for a year or two and die like a stray dog... Which one do you think is worth it?"
At his father's question, Avan Rothschild simply snorted but said nothing. He was someone smart from the start. However, Xie Feng's attitude had simply driven him beyond normal anger. Avan Rothschild was used to having what he wanted since he was little, so even if it was something as simple as a seat, then he should get it no matter what.
Because of his arrogance, when Avan Rothschild met a man even younger than him, who was actually even more arrogant than him and was not afraid of his familiar backing, Avan felt his brain stop working and anger took over his body and his actions.
Until yesterday, in his 25 years of life, Avan Rothschild had only met a wall; Shen Xinya.
No matter how much he courted her, no matter how strong the backing of his Rothschild family was, Shen Xinya would not give in no matter what. She was not willing to give him even the chance to get to know each other better, let alone become his woman.

Previously, Avan Rothschild believed that as time went by, she would fall in love with him. After all, all his qualities were excellent no matter how one looked at him.
Avan Rothschild knew that he could use force and force Shen Xinya to be his woman; after all, even though the Shen family was powerful, it could not compare to the Rothschild family no matter what... However, Avan was simply too proud to lower himself to do such a thing. Therefore, he continued to persist.
However, today, Avan Rothschild met a second wall. This wall seemed to be extremely robust and tall, completely ignoring Avan Rothschild's power and leaving him unable to break it down... This second wall was precisely Xie Feng.
Coincidence or not, Shen Xinya and Xie Feng, the two walls that Avan Rothschild could not cross, had some sort of connection with each other.
"How strong is this brat surnamed Xie?" After calming down a bit, Avan Rothschild slightly regained his calm demeanor and asked.
"Do you remember the events of a week ago?" The leader of the Rothschild family asked. Seeing his son Avan nod, Lucian Rothschild continued, "That boy Xie Feng was the trigger. Not only did he defeat Nangong Jun, the ancestor of the Nangong Family of China... Xie Feng also killed Luis Fernandez, the number 1 genius in the history of humankind and who had the best chance of becoming a True God."
Avan Rothschild was shocked when he heard his father's words.
Nangong Jun was a person so powerful that his lightning could flatten an entire city and turn every living thing for hundreds or even thousands of miles around into mortal remains! Even Avan did not dare to say that he could defeat Nangong Jun with 100% confidence!
However, his arrogant nature would not allow him to look up to anyone, so he sneered, "In the end, everyone is a dog of a God. When I become a God, a little Nangong Jun will be nothing but a joke!"
Avan didn't wait for his father to say anything else and stood up, walking towards the exit. However, before leaving, he casually said, "But you're right. I'll wait for a while and then stomp that bitch surnamed Xie under my feet!... For now, I'll settle for crushing him in the virtual world."
Lucian Rothschild watched his son's back until he disappeared at the end of the hallway. He didn't even have time to tell him Xie Feng's name in the virtual world; Avan was so confident that he didn't even ask who he was.

From Avan Rothschild's point of view, as long as he overwhelmed all the Chinese players, then Xie Feng could only hide like a turtle in its shell.
"Your arrogance will also be your downfall..." Lucian Rothschild muttered to himself, gently sipping his tea.
"It should be soon. Just a few more months and a year at most."

The next day.
-Shanghai University.
"What's going on here?" Xie Feng frowned slightly and a puzzled look appeared on his handsome face.
"This... I don't know either." Xie Yao shook her head. She was confused as well.
The atmosphere in the university was somewhat strange. The female students seemed annoyed for some reason while the male students seemed to be delighted about something.
From the look in the males' eyes, Xie Feng was almost 100% sure that they were thinking about something lewd. However, he had no idea what it was.
"Forget it." He shook his head and accompanied Gu Qianxue to the building where she was receiving her classes. Then, he accompanied Xie Yao before heading to the classroom where the business class was.
On the way, Xie Feng overheard some things and received the hungry gaze of many pretty students. He completely ignored all of the above, but there were two things that slightly caught his attention.
One of the things the students were mainly talking about was Shen Xinya.
Yesterday, Shen Xinya's final concert had been performed and its success was so great that the evening news was practically talking about her concert.
Shen Xinya had officially retired from the music world, which took many people by surprise. However, what shook people's hearts the most was to learn that the goddess Shen Xinya was actually in love with a man; moreover, according to Shen Xinya's speech, it seemed that she had been in love since she was very young!
Everyone was wondering who the lucky man was.
Shen Xinya's body was absolute perfection, her curves were not explosive or small in any way; simply perfect, capable of igniting lust, passion, desire, and many other emotions with each movement of her waist. Her face was so beautiful that even the angels of heaven would have to admit defeat before her, her dark eyes were like the gates to heaven, just one look was enough to warm the soul of anyone who looked at her.
If a man could hold such a woman, even if he died the next day his life could be considered successful.
Unfortunately, the heart and therefore the body of such a heavenly goddess already had an overlord.
Of course, many talented young men were not willing to allow the woman of their dreams to be with another man so they began to think of all sorts of ways to find out the guy's identity.
Xie Feng shook his head helplessly. After Shen Xinya abandoned the world of music, she simply disappeared; even Xie Feng had no idea what things were going on in this woman's head.
Soon, he turned his attention to the other subject that had slightly interested him.
Apparently, a belle beautiful enough to rival the flowers on campus had appeared.
According to the murmurs and exclamations that Xie Feng managed to overhear, this new beauty might be a new student as many students saw her accompanied by the college principal, touring the facilities.
Even Xie Feng felt a little curious about this. After all, he was also a young and healthy 20-year-old man; it was natural for him to be interested in beauties... On the contrary, it would be weird if he wasn't interested.
However, although Xie Feng was curious, it was just that, curiosity.
Even if the most beautiful woman in the multiverse suddenly descended to tell him that she loved him, Xie Feng would not pay any attention to her. He was only willing to share his bed with those women who filled a part of his heart.
Most students would have sex with anyone they thought was handsome or beautiful, enjoying their youth 100%. However, from Xie Feng's point of view, doing such a thing did not make much sense.
Without any feelings involved other than lust, sex was just animal copulation. Xie Feng considered himself a human being, not an animal.
Making love. That little phrase explained everything by itself.
If Xie Feng wanted to, with his power, he could have slept with countless beauties. But now, he had only had sex with one woman in his entire life. This was proof enough of his view regarding women.

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
