Samsara Online
chapter-395-30041322

With a small ray of hope inside him, Xie Feng looked at the girl sitting next to him and asked, "Wuhen, can you tell me where you got the Pearl of Light? Actually, these items are very important to me and I am currently traveling all over the continent looking for them all."

At Xie Feng's question, Shui Wuhen did not even need to think about it as she immediately shook her head gently and replied, "I'm sorry, big brother Shiva. Wuhen doesn't know where that beautiful pearl came from..."

"Oh..." Like a balloon that had lost all the air inside, Xie Feng became deflated and couldn't help but let out a small sound of disappointment.

Although from the beginning his hopes were not too high, those hopes of obtaining the smallest amount of information possible was there. Because of this, not getting anything, not even a small trace, Xie Feng couldn't help but get a little discouraged.

"Sorry... Wuhen can't help you in any way..." Seeing Xie Feng deflated clearly depressed, Shui Wuhen bit her lips softly and apologized with her head down.

When Xie Feng noticed this, he couldn't help but feel a bit amused... He, a proper grown man, was actually being comforted by a little girl who was half his age.

"Don't worry, I just felt bad for a moment since these pearls are really important to me." Xie Feng returned to normal and gently patted the little girl's head with a carefree smile and said, "Besides, you already helped me a lot more than you think!"

"Really?" The girl's eyes regained their radiance once again when she heard his words and looked at him as if she wanted to confirm that what he told her was true.

"Of course it's true!" Xie Feng nodded and put on a serious expression as he said, "If it wasn't for Little Wuhen, the Pearl of Light would never have appeared before me so soon and a person very important to me would now be suffering a lot silently."

Indeed. Although it was not Shui Wuhen's intention, the reality was that this little girl had helped Xie Feng to the point where she could be considered his benefactor. After all, it was thanks to her appearance that the Pearl of Light fell into Xie Feng's hands as soon as possible and it was also thanks to this that Gu Qianxue could now smile from the depths of her heart after regaining her eyesight.

As if to prove to the little girl beside him that his words were real, Xie Feng raised his communication tool and called out to Gu Qianxue.

"Xie Feng!"

Not even three seconds passed when Gu Qianxue's cheerful and charming voice greeted him.

Xie Feng smiled at her cheerfulness and asked, "Qianxue, are you and the girls busy now?"

"Not really." Gu Qianxue replied quickly. "By the way, Xie Feng! You can't guess what Xinya's ID is in this world!"

Xie Feng blinked several times at the sudden change of topic and for a moment didn't know how to react. Curious, he asked, "No. I really have no idea. What is her ID?"

"Well, she actually-"

The excited voice was suddenly interrupted and strange sounds were the only thing coming out of her mouth. Obviously, a person next to her had covered her mouth with a hand as the sound of constant fighting reached Xie Feng's ears.

"Qianxue, you!"

"Girl, we clearly said it would be a surprise for later!"

Shen Xinya's voice and Xie Yao's voice were clearly heard by him. The two women were scolding Gu Qianxue as if she was a little girl who had did something bad.

The corner of Xie Feng's mouth twitched several times at his women's childish act. All of them were already adults with countless admirers; in front of the public they were serious and demure, but only with him did they display such carefree behavior and attitude. This was not only because of their love for him, but also because they trusted him with all their hearts.

Love and trust were two different issues. A person could love relatively easily, but trust was something that was built over time and with actions.

Shui Wuhen, who was sitting next to Xie Feng, also clearly heard the words spoken by the people on the other side of the communication tool. She covered her mouth and giggled quietly to herself, feeling amused at the situation.

Xie Feng coughed to get the attention of the girls who had amused themselves by scolding Gu Qianxue and when he had their attention back he continued: "Anyway, can you come to Eternal Wind City now? There is a person I would like you all to meet."

Eternal Wind City was relatively close to Eminentis City; in fact, the only problem was that one had to pass through monster territories level 25 and above. However, with the average player level increasing exponentially after two months of Samsara Online's launch, such monsters could not prevent players from venturing further.

Precisely for this reason, many players had already discovered Eternal Wind City. However, since this was only a small-sized city and there was nothing particularly attractive to the players, most of them did not stay long before leaving in search of more adventures.

In the past, Xie Feng had given Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue a teleportation scroll to reach Eternal Wind City. The girls also took it upon themselves to use that scroll to get to the city and then buy several more scrolls, so now they could get here at will without having to travel long distances and waste precious time.

"Alright. We'll go soon~" Gu Qianxue had apparently learned her lesson as she didn't try to talk about the previous matter again and simply continued as if nothing had happened, "We'll be there in about five minutes hehe."

Xie Feng shared his coordinates with her via message and then ended the conversation by saying that he would wait for them at that location.

After seeing him end the conversation, Shui Wuhen couldn't help but ask with curious eyes, "Handsome big brother, why did that big sister call you Xie Feng before?"

"Ah, that?" Xie Feng smiled slightly and began to explain to Shui Wuhen the truth.

The two of them were chatting for a few minutes before a beautiful housekeeper came into view. This person was precisely Yue Qingyu, Shui Wuhen's mother.

"Mom! Look who's here!" Shui Wuhen stood up and was about to rush out to greet her mother when her footsteps suddenly stopped. She returned beside Xie Feng and clung to him apparently worried that he would disappear again like he did last time.

"Young man, it's you." Yue Qingyu looked at him with eyes filled with gratitude and nodded towards him as she said, "Last time, I'm sorry for my lack of manners... I didn't even thank you even though you offered your help selflessly."

"Don't worry, auntie. I understand." Xie Feng shook his head and softly sighed.

Yue Qingyu at that time had just found out that her husband attempted to murder their own daughter, then found out that Xie Feng had no choice but to kill him. Of course that she was too devastated to notice small details.

Moreover, although Xie Feng had really helped selflessly and did not expect to get anything in return back then, he actually ended up obtaining the Pearl of Light, a Saint grade item whose value to him was incalculable. Therefore, to say that he got nothing for the help he gave back then was not correct either.

Seeing the sincere look on his face, Yue Qingyu could not help but smile kindly at him. Soon, however, her gaze fell on her daughter and her face became serious.

"Wuhen, you know your fault?"

Like a cat that had seen a tiger, Shui Wuhen hid behind Xie Feng for protection as she looked at her mother with guilty eyes, "Mom, I'm sorry... But little Wuhen really is bored to death learning about herbs!"

"You..." Seeing her own daughter seek protection behind a man she had only seen twice in her entire life and with whom she had spent less than a day together, Yue Qingyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Wuhen, you're already a big girl and you're very smart... You know mom is only doing this so that you can fend for yourself in the future." The middle-aged woman smiled bitterly as she explained.

Hearing this, Shui Wuhen lowered her head and bit her lips tightly.

Because her family was poor, they often had no choice but to go outside the city and venture into the dangerous forests; in fact, most families were like that. After all, there were many things that could not be obtained in the city at low prices because to obtain them one had to risk one's life. Such raw materials would naturally not fetch a low price.

Xie Feng, who had remained silent as he observed the interaction between the mother-daughter pair, suddenly had an idea and opened his mouth: "Excuse me but... It turns out that I actually have a very big house in Eminentis City... In my house, there is a huge garden and many plants that require care. However, neither I nor anyone close to me knows about plants and herbs so they are currently being neglected."

Indeed. Although Xie Feng's mansion had many precious plants, they had currently stopped producing. This was because, after such a long time without care, the plants were no longer generating fruits of any kind. Fortunately, this world was different from the real world so the plant had not really died and only failed to produce fruits due to neglect.
