Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One
Chapter 621 - 229: She Alarmed the Curator, but He Was Doing a Gourmet Livestream (Part 2)
"Okay."
Ming Feng, holding the dagger, was ready to leave, but suddenly stopped and asked Dongfang Yi, "Where did you get this dagger from?"
Dongfang Yi hesitated for a moment before revealing the origin of the dagger in detail, "The Medicine King Ying Family of the Central Yu Alliance left a Supervisor in the Mortal World. Every ten years, the Mortal World sends three gifted doctors to the Central Yu Alliance. This year, as usual, three people have been sent."
"This dagger was given to me by a doctor from the Mortal World to pass on to you."
"From the Mortal World?" Ming Feng’s heart warmed. He sighed, "That is the old site of Ancient Xia Country, the resting place of the Divine Hidden Emperor!"
"Then how could he possess this National Guardian Dagger?" From what he knew, the civilization of the Mortal World experienced a gap, and now the people there are almost unaware of the existence of the Divine Hidden Dynasty.
Then, how did that doctor obtain the dagger and know the connection between it and the Divine Hidden Dynasty?
"She said that recent excavations in the Mortal World uncovered a tomb, and after identification, it was confirmed to be the tomb of the Divine Hidden Emperor. This dagger is an ancient artifact unearthed from that tomb."
"Knowing she was coming to the Divine Martial Realm for study, their country’s President entrusted her with the dagger to pass on to the curator of the Divine Concealment Emperor Exhibition Hall."
"Which would be you."
Xu Xingguang told Dongfang Yi this, who then relayed it word for word to Ming Feng.
After learning the whole story, Ming Feng still felt something was odd and out of place at every turn.
Not to mention, the people of the Mortal World are completely unaware of the existence of the Divine Martial Realm, and even if they were aware, they wouldn’t know about the Divine Concealment Emperor Exhibition Hall within it.
Could it be that they learned about it from the mouths of those exiled criminals from the Divine Martial Realm?
That’s a possibility as well.
But...
"The doctor you mentioned, what’s her name? What is her identity in the Mortal World?"
"Her surname is Xu, named Xu Xingguang. As for her identity in the Mortal World, I didn’t ask." Dongfang Yi noticed Ming Feng suddenly fell silent, fearing he might have misspoken, he slowed his breathing a bit.
"Curator, i-is there a problem?"
Could Xu Xingguang really have set him up?
"Xu Xingguang." For some reason, Ming Feng suddenly pictured the figure of a woman he saw in a short video last night.
That woman was the doctor from the Mortal World. According to Ming Lan, she was also a Super Power User.
And she held Marshal Lin’s Starlight Sword!
Xingguang.
Xingguang!
Linking to the mysterious disappearance of all personal effects when Marshal Lin was buried in the Kunze Mountain Range Infected Zone, Ming Feng had an absurd and bold guess.
Suppressing the absurd idea as much as possible, he asked Dongfang Yi, "Do you have a photo of that girl?"
Dongfang Yi shook his head, "Sorry, I don’t."
"I see."
He decided that if the National Guardian Dagger was authenticated as genuine, he would definitely make a trip to Golden Gate City to meet the woman from the Mortal World.
The opponent’s identity, it seemed, harbored a deep secret.
Ming Feng took the dagger and went to a meeting, while Dongfang Yi went downstairs to accompany his sister to view all the exhibits in the exhibition hall.
The love letter written by the Divine Hidden Emperor to the Empress became a new favorite of the exhibition hall. It was placed in the center of the third-floor hall and protected by a comprehensive bulletproof glass case.
A projector enlarged and projected the contents of the love letter above the glass case into the air.
This way, visitors who couldn’t get close to the display case could still stand on the perimeter and admire the exhibit.
[Lin Piaopiao had been drinking, and her lips tasted of alcohol. I secretly kissed her, but she slapped me on the face, scolding me about being a blind mosquito. Was she really drunk?]
Every visitor who came to view the exhibit couldn’t help but softly read aloud the contents of the love letter.
Dongfang Qing’s face slightly reddened as she whispered her thoughts to her brother, "I think this can’t be counted as a love letter; it should be a diary."
Dongfang Yi also felt it was a diary, "It feels like a diary secretly written during the time the Divine Hidden Emperor had a crush on Marshal Lin."
He chuckled, "Even the Divine Hidden Emperor had times when he secretly admired someone and didn’t dare to confess. This puts my mind at ease." If even idols had times when love was difficult to express, then his secret crush on the girl in Wuyuan Town wasn’t shameful.
Dongfang Qing heard Dongfang Yi’s words, and for reasons unknown, the bright smile on her face unknowingly turned to worry.
"Alright, now that we’ve finished here, let sister take you out for dinner," Dongfang Qing said, linking her arm with Dongfang Yi as they walked out. "Emperor City has several nice restaurants. Although they’re expensive, we rarely come back, so we should try them when we’re here."
