Samsara Online
Chapter 79: You for me and me for you (Last part)

Xie Feng was preparing to retreat after attacking, but when he suddenly heard a girl's voice, his movements stalled, and he unconsciously looked towards the source of the voice.

Xie Feng saw a beautiful girl looking at him and Shui Xiu on the other side of the barrier. The girl's eyes were red, and even though she had just woken up, her face was full of tears.

Unfortunately, even though Xie Feng's movements stalled, Shui Xiu did not hesitate and ignored the girl's voice.

"Watch out!". Shui Wuhen screamed with a panicky expression on her face.

Xie Feng's pupils contracted to the size of a needle when he saw out of the corner of his eye three scythes heading towards him at breakneck speed.

'I don't have time to dodge!'

The scythes were so close that he wouldn't have enough time to avoid the attack. If the three scythes hit his body, then that means that Xie Feng's adventure has ended here.

*Swoosh!*

*Swoosh!*

*Swoosh!*

The three scythes passed by and hit the air, missing their target.

Shui Xiu quickly looked everywhere and tried to find it, but could not find any trace of Xie Feng. He soon realized that the pesky person he was trying to kill, and only a triple scythe attack would be enough to accomplish his goal. But Xie Feng was like a cockroach that refuses to die, he failed, and now that cockroach had escaped again.

*Swoosh!*

A gentle breeze danced in front of Shui Wuhen, and the body of Xie Feng was formed in just a moment. To escape from that situation, he had no choice other than to use his most potent escape skill, Dissolve. This means that during the next 120 seconds, he would have to avoid being hit only by making use of his innate abilities and speed of movement.

Dissolve keeps Xie Feng's body inexpugnable for five seconds... Unless he attacks before those five seconds are up.

-1020! (Critical Hit!)

A Small Fireball, along with a critical hit and over a thousand health points were taken from Shui Xiu's health bar. This infuriated Shui Xiu as not only did Xie Feng avoid his attacks again, he also countered!

Even Xie Feng himself was surprised. He clearly wasn't expecting a critical hit again since he had been blessed with one a few seconds earlier.

Now, Shui Xiu's total HP was less than 19,000 points.

"Dad! Please wake up now and go back to your old self! Mom is waiting for us at home... You also said you would protect me, so... so why are you doing this!?".

The voice of Shui Wuhen sounds behind the back of Xie Feng. Her voice broke for every word she said, and by the end of her speech, it was a bit difficult to understand what she was saying because of her sobbing.

"Aaagh! Damn brat! Because of this goddamn light, all my plans and mission were ruined! How dare you call me dad!!!". Shui Xiu's response was a roar followed by an angry cry. He did not even care about her words, as if instead of talking to his daughter, he was talking to a stranger.

Although Xie Feng felt sorry for the poor and innocent girl, he was no longer distracted and focused his attention on Shui Xiu, only defeating him will he survive while protecting the life of Shui Wuhen. At the same time, he can bring her safely back to her mother. He promised that he would do so even if he dies, and that is what he will do.

Besides feeling sorry, he also felt that he would go crazy with anger at any moment. He has no memory of enjoying the warmth that a father and mother should give to their children.

Xie Feng's memory only begins when he was ten years old, and beyond that, everything is blank. There is nothing. It is as if he was born into a ten-year-old boy's body or as if his childhood memory been erased.

That is precisely why Xie Feng feels a special dislike for people like Shui Xiu.

No matter what his motives, no matter what his reasons!

"Bastard! A piece of trash like you doesn't need to exist!". Xie Feng screamed and started running at full speed, like a whirlwind, towards Shui Xiu.

The real world was already unpleasant enough for him, but now even the virtual world he loves so much had to trash in it. He will clean it up then!

Shui Xiu also advanced fast to intercept his attack.

*Sou!*

*Sou!*

*Sou!*

*Sou!*

Amazingly, four folded scythes of a terrifying undead aura were thrown from Shui Xiu's body in less than two seconds!

Each scythe has a fixed damage rate of 1100 points. This means that this attack would cause 4400 points of fixed damage! What do 4400 points of damage mean? This means that not even the player with the highest defense and the highest amount of health points in the whole world Samsara could survive this attack!

Xie Feng gritted his teeth and continued to advance without any intention of retreating. He leaned slightly forward, and his movements became lighter.

*Woosh!*

With a strange foot movement, he dodged the first scythe and immediately afterward used the same foot he had used before to make a full turn and shake off the second scythe.

Now, the third scythe was reflected in front of his eyes. Without changing his expression, he raised his sword, and with a quick movement, did the same action he practiced hundreds of times with the skeletons before he got here.

*Clang!*

*Clang!*

With a single attack, he shook the third scythe, and using the force of that same attack; he intercepted the last scythe. Attack and defense at the same time!

Shui Xiu's eyes, which from the beginning of the battle until now seemed demonized and had shown no other emotion than anger, shook slightly for a moment due to the surprise.

Xie Feng arrived at Shui Xiu's side the next moment and attacked with his sword followed by a magical attack.

-398

-509

But that's not all. Just as Shui Xiu raised his right hand to attack, Xie Feng leaped up in the air as he twisted his body and kicked Shui Xiu's face, causing his movements to stall.

Just that second of stalling was enough for Xie Feng to attack again, wielding the sword in his left hand while extending his right hand to fire a Magic Bullet.

-397

-406

Surprisingly, there was not even a split second between their attacks. In other words, Xie Feng's attacks were precisely one second later than the previous one!

This means that at this point, he was attacking with perfect timing!

It may seem easy, but in actuality, it is not at all simple to attack always without missing even a millisecond in between. However, Xie Feng was doing just that!

-399

-509

-398

-407

Xie Feng continued to attack while occasionally dodging some scythes that shot out of any part of Shui Xiu's body.

Shui Xiu's total HP soon dropped below 14.000, and although he roared and attacked repeatedly, his attacks never managed to touch even the corner of Xie Feng's armor.

Tornado!

-1120... -1118... -1119

Shui Xiu was sent flying backward and his health bar was now finally close to 10.000. Because the Pearl of Light caused the health points, level, and grade of Shui Xiu to drop a full level, his full HP was 100.000. This means that Xie Feng finally drained almost 90.000 health points from a BOSS grade EMPEROR.

It is just that Xie Feng also knew that Shui Xiu had a 70% chance of recovering its full HP when its health bar drops below 10%.

Although the anger Xie Feng felt made his movements more polished and perfect, his reasoning was slightly obstructed instead. Therefore, he did not realize that the place where Shui Xiu was sent to fly was direct to the barrier where Shui Wuhen was.

*BANG!*

Suddenly, the Bright Light Barrier that protected Shui Wuhen for hours or even days exploded after being hit by Shui Xiu's booster attack.

Xie Feng's eyes opened in disbelief. Thousands of questions plagued his mind as he watched the barrier be destroyed.

Why was the barrier suddenly destroyed so easily?

Shouldn't it resist for at least a few more hours?

Xie Feng's gaze was suddenly drawn to a pile of white bony hands sinking to the ground. His eyes trembled at the realization of something.

Since the first five minutes of the fight were over, the number of bony hands invoked by Shui Xiu was much less compared to the beginning. But Xie Feng simply assumed that Shui Xiu did not want to waste MP after seeing that the summoned bone hands had little or no effect.

Only now did he realize that the reason was not simple at all. Shui Xiu continued to summon bone hands without stopping even while they were fighting. It's just that their goal was not him, it was the barrier!

Because the light emitted by the barrier was too bright, the white bone hands behind were perfectly hidden, and from the angle of Xie Feng, he could not see them!

This was the difference between a monster or Boss without intelligence and a monster or Boss with intelligence!

Xie Feng did not even stop to think and activated Fast Movement while running towards Shui Wuhen, leaving a gust of wind behind him.

[Movement speed: 188 (118 + 20 (Cloud Path)+50 (Fast Movement)]

Xie Feng's movement speed had become so high that he suddenly felt as if the whole world had become slower. Shui Xiu's right arm pointing towards Shui Wuhen, the girl's terrified and pain-filled expression... everything was recorded in his eyes.

*SWOOSH!*

Xie Feng appeared between Shui Xiu and Shui Wuhen. The girl seemed surprised by the abrupt change of events.... But Shui Xiu had a horrible smile on his face, and he laughed: "Ha ha ha... I was waiting for you to disturb me again! I was waiting for this moment!".

The attack that Shui Xiu was casting at this time was different from all the previous attacks that Xie Feng had seen him use so far! It was different from the invocation of the Bone Hand and was different from the sudden appearance of the scythes. It was clearly a skill that, a basic inspection skill like the one the system gives, did not notice!

Xie Feng cannot use Dissolve as it is currently in cooldown, and even so, if he escapes, then Shui Wuhen who was behind him, will be hit!

"Curse of the soul!". Shui Xiu shouted enthusiastically, clearly happy that all his plans had come to fruition.

However, something neither of them expected happened.

Shui Wuhen stood between the two of them and looked back with a sad smile on her little face. It was such a sad smile that Xie Feng felt his heartbreak into a thousand pieces, but her words were even more painful:

"Big brother, I know you came to help me... otherwise, you would not be in this ugly place. I think mom asked for your help .... you... Could you help Wenwen tell Mom I love her?".

Then she looked forward, and although Xie Feng couldn't see her expression, he could imagine it.

The words of Shui Wuhen made Xie Feng's eyes open complete, and his heart shuddered violently. Words would stay engraved in the depths of his soul for the rest of his life without erased by the terrifying flow of time.

It was also at that moment that Xie Feng's destiny, which was destined to be tragic in the near future, was changed and gave him the key to victory. Thanks to a ten years old girl he had just met.

"You took a risk for me, I'll do it for you... You for me and me for you".
