Samsara Online

In fact, the main reason why the emperor looked down on the players was because of how weak they were in general, for while it was true that their numbers were overwhelmingly high, only one king was enough to placate whole armies of them with no problem. However, another reason he didn't take them seriously was because when the weak players united to fight the Abyssal Dragon, the emperor didn't see how effective a single skill could be against the Saint grade boss.

By uniting hundreds of thousands of earth mages and activating the exact same skill, these weak players whom the emperor disdained had managed to practically clip the wings of the Abyssal Dragon; a Saint grade boss, thus successfully sealing his ability to fly.

Furthermore, the emperor had also not seen Xie Yao revive the Abyssal Dragon. All he saw was the Seraphim that had appeared in the sky and that was all. As for who had been responsible, Emperor Xuan Liuxian did not know exactly; however, he suspected that it had been one of the Light Saint Dragon's powers or even Goddess Mei Hen who was probably observing everything hidden in the distance.

"This... Your Majesty, these people-"

"That' s enough, Hu Yi!"

The emperor didn't wait nor did he feel like listening to nonsense. His mood wasn't exactly good in the first place and now it had suddenly become even worse.

The emperor looked at the surrounding players with disdain and without caring whether they heard him or not, he scoffed loudly, "You're telling me that these players whose average level is level twenty-four or level twenty-five were responsible for practically slaughtering the Abyssal Dragon? What a joke! If they had such strength then they might as well dominate these lands considering their numbers."

Gu Qianxue looked at the arrogant emperor and her face couldn't help but wrinkle as if she had eaten something bitter. She whispered in a voice low enough for only Xie Feng's group to hear, "This person is the emperor? Is he mentally retarded or did he graduate from a college for idiots?"

It didn't matter if it was Xie Feng, Xie Yao, Shen Xinya, Mu Wuying, or the rest; they all looked at Xuan Liuxian as if they were looking at a pitiful and pathetic clown who would probably soon suffer one of the strongest setbacks of his life.

"What arrogance you have there!"

A bellow sounded from the distance and a sandy-colored tiger approached as it raised a cloud of dust behind it.

"Oh? This guy came back." Xie Feng smiled and folded his arms as he hoped to see something funny.

"What insolence!" Xuan Liuxian barked and glared wide-eyed in the direction of the previous voice, as if he was a beast about to show and release his fangs.

"Insolence?! I'm insolent, so what?! Damn old fart!" Yang Tian jumped off the tiger's back and pointed directly at the emperor's nose while cursing him loudly.

Yang Tian had just returned from the walls of Eternal Wind City after successfully defending the city from the rampaging attacks of the Abyssal Dragon. Glad to have achieved his goal and relieved that the battle was over, he quickly decided to go and secretly brag to the others.

But little did he expect that the first thing he would hear would be the mocking voice of the emperor of this land, who had done practically nothing during the entire battle!

To begin with, Yang Tian always had an extremely bad disposition and was so arrogant that only his father was able to placate him in his entire family; how could he not be enraged?

Xuan Liuxian also recognized Yang Tian after a more careful look.

When he had arrived at Eternal Wind City after using Grandeux City's long-distance teleportation array, the first thing he had seen was not the empty city nor was it the hell unleashed by the Abyssal Dragon nor had it been the beast himself; the first thing that entered the emperor's eyes back then had been the huge earth-colored barrier surrounding the front part of Eternal Wind City and protecting it from the scattered attacks.

While it was true that there were some parts of the city that had been damaged, it was simply inconsequential compared to the great job Yang Tian had done.

The emperor, knowing that the player before him had at least a decent defensive skill, had looked at Yang Tian with appreciative eyes. However, now that he had been cursed mercilessly even before one of the four kings, Xuan Liuxian was enraged.

"Do you know who you just cursed? Do you have any idea of-"

"I cursed you, you old dog!" Yang Tian didn't wait or care what the emperor was about to say. "You think you're cool just because you're a God grade boss? Damn it! If it wasn't for the barrier that I, your father, erected back then, your ass right now would be black after receiving the Abyssal Dragon's attack! I, your father, one of the weak players you make so much fun of, saved your anal virginity!"

"Pfffffffft!"

Gu Qianxue didn't seem to care about anything in the world as she began to laugh out loud. As if her laughter was some kind of special switch, hundreds of thousands of lucky players who had been revived by Xie Yao's skill began to laugh out loud as they secretly gave a thumbs up towards Yang Tian.

His words had dispersed some of the bad smell in the air!

The emperor's face grew grim and his body began to tremble with anger. When in his life had he ever been humiliated in such a way? Not even his own father had treated him like this in the past.

Seeing the expression on the emperor's face, King Hu Yi could only sigh and secretly shook his head. Things had come to a point where he could do nothing but watch... The only thing he hoped now was that Xie Feng's group would not be too upset. The king had seen what this group of people were capable of and among them even the weakest one had more attack power than a high-level soldier.

"Let me see if you can still be arrogant now." Xuan Liuxian raised his sword slowly and said in an indifferent voice, "It is said that you players can die and revive infinitely in exchange for one level as punishment... Then, I will kill you again and again until your level returns to 0. Every time you appear on the resurrection point of Eminentis City, this seat will personally take care of ending your miserable life!"

Before the emperor finished his attack, another cold voice sounded in the distance, "If I were you I would think very carefully about what you are about to do."

"Em?" The emperor looked back and saw a group of about twenty people slowly approaching, "You want to die too?"

Yao Zenyu smiled faintly, his eyes glittered with a hint of unnoticeable coldness. In a slow and steady voice, he said neither arrogant nor servile, "Of course, with your strength, if you want to kill us there is nothing we can do."

"It's good for you to know that." The emperor nodded.

However, Yao Zenyu continued, "But, I wonder if you can bear the consequences? It is true, individually we are weak. But we, players, are hundreds of millions! Now, your majesty, imagine the consequence of having hundreds of millions of immortal beings constantly attacking your Imperial City... Surely that won't be fun, don't you think?"

The emperor's face finally changed a little upon hearing this.

In fact, the players were weaker than the NPC soldiers.The number of really strong soldiers under the Human Emperor's command was approximately about five million; however, in the face of the terrifying number of hundreds of millions of immortal beings, no matter how weak they were, five million was simply too few in comparison.

Nangong Lei was also attacking the Abyssal Dragon melee when he was killed by one of his magic spells. Therefore, Xie Yao's skill also affected him. In a much more creepy voice, he added: "Every one of us here is either a leader of a powerful guild or possesses enough influence to move the masses and, although that Yang Tian fellow is not to my liking, he is also a figure of great importance among us players. If you dare to attack, I expect you to be prepared to clash with everyone at the same time!"

Mu Wuying, who also had a good impression of Yang Tian although they were not particularly close, also added:  Your majesty is undoubtedly strong, your men are also stronger than us in general terms... However, can so few soldiers protect every citizen? Can they protect every nobleman in your empire? I don't think that's possible considering the glaring difference in numbers."

The emperor's eyes finally revealed a hint of fear when he heard Mu Wuying's words.

If the players really went crazy, ignoring the consequences, then it would indeed be a catastrophe. While it was true that the players would suffer from losing important NPCs, humans were existences that throughout history always committed follies due to momentary emotions.

However, Xuan Liuxian could not help but feel that his prestige would fall to the ground before one of the four kings and tens of thousands of soldiers if he backed down at this point. Therefore, he looked at Mu Wuying and regardless of her beauty said in a threatening tone: "Are you threatening me? Do you believe me when I tell you that depending on your next words, this seat will ignore all decorum and kill you right here regardless of the consequences?"

Mu Wuying didn't even have time to respond when another person stepped forward, "And you believe me when I tell you that if you dare to touch her... All mankind on this continent will cease to exist!"
