Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

Chapter 637 - 236: Sister Xingguang, Are You Also a Diehard Fan of Marshal Lin?

  • Next Chapter

In the ’Life Record of the National Guardian Marshal’ written by the historian of Ancient Xia Country for Marshal Lin, there was a special account of the death of Marshal Lin.

She died on the third day after a meteorite fell on the Kunze Mountain Range, in the arms of the Divine Hidden Emperor, and after her death, more than half of the items she carried with her mysteriously disappeared.

The National Guardian Dagger, the Starlight Battle Sword, and her favorite rare gemstones were all gone.

Thinking of this detail, Ming Feng looked deeply at Xu Xingguang and said thoughtfully, "The historian recorded that after Marshal Lin was buried in the Kunze Mountain Range, all the things she loved in life mysteriously disappeared without a trace."

"Back then, the Divine Hidden Emperor stayed in the Kunze Mountain Range for several days looking for Marshal Lin’s belongings, but returned with no results." Ming Feng tilted his head and smiled as he asked Xu Xingguang, "I wonder where Miss Xu acquired that National Guardian Dagger?"

Xu Xingguang was somewhat dazed.

After her death, did Xiao An still look for his relics?

Curiously, Xu Xingguang asked, "After Marshal Lin’s death, besides the National Guardian Dagger and the Starlight Sword, were there any other things that disappeared with her?"

"Miss Xu indeed knows the origin of that sword." Ming Feng was certain that the silver long sword in Xu Xingguang’s hand was the Starlight Battle Sword of Ancient Xia Country’s National Guardian Marshal Lin Piaopiao.

Xu Xingguang just smiled and remained silent.

Staring at her slight smile, Ming Feng felt that he did not even have the right to play small tricks in front of her.

How eerie.

Ming Feng thought for a moment before saying, "It is said that the things Marshal Lin loved most in her life almost all disappeared. Besides that, a blood-colored pigeon egg ring treasured in the Divine Hidden Emperor’s bed-chamber also vanished."

Xu Xingguang blinked, with a bit of helplessness in her heart.

She remembered that ring.

Near the days of Divine Hidden Crane’s thirtieth birthday, Xu Xingguang happened to be on vacation. Hearing that the Monarch was unwell, she took a plane back to the Imperial City. When she saw Divine Hidden Crane, he was indeed not feeling well, reportedly due to some stomach discomfort.

Divine Hidden Crane was somewhat spoiled when sick, refusing to eat this or that, until Xu Xingguang came to the Royal Palace and made him a bowl of bamboo mushroom clear soup noodles, which he finally deigned to eat.

He licked the bowl clean.

After the meal, Divine Hidden Crane pulled Xu Xingguang to enjoy the moon in the garden.

The moon was hazy that night, making Xu Xingguang drowsy and eager to sleep. But Divine Hidden Crane kept mumbling on, and she could not interrupt him, so she stayed with him.

Later, she was so sleepy she dozed off.

When she woke up, it was two in the morning, and as she opened her eyes, she saw Divine Hidden Crane furtively hiding something behind his back.

Xu Xingguang, who had practiced ancient martial arts since childhood, was a bit more skilled than Divine Hidden Crane. She successfully captured his shoulder and grabbed the item in his hand. It was a blood-colored pigeon egg ring, darker than fresh blood, exuding an intoxicating scarlet glow in the dim moonlight.

Xu Xingguang couldn’t resist all the shiny treasures; she asked Divine Hidden Crane, "It’s so beautiful, can I have it?"

Divine Hidden Crane’s eyes clearly shone at the time, looking at her with a deep and ambiguous gaze. He asked, "Do you really dare to want it?"

What the ring represented went without saying.

When Xu Xingguang heard Divine Hidden Crane’s response, she was momentarily startled. She could feel that her growing-up emperor seemed to have overstepped boundaries in his feelings for her.

Her Monarch was handsome, possessing the best appearance she had ever seen in her several reincarnations.

She was willing to fight for her Beauty God across all lands, to defend the country.

Yet she could only fight for her Beauty God across all lands, to defend the country.

She always felt she could not stop moving forward; once she stopped, she would lose her momentum. She had to keep going, even if this road was endless; she had to keep walking.

Once she decided on something, she would persistently walk to the end, even if it meant smashing into the wall until it broke.

She returned the ring to Divine Hidden Crane, smiling as she said, "I like this gemstone, can you give it to me?"

The ring setting was something she could not afford.

At that time, Divine Hidden Crane’s gaze on her was darker than the cloudy sky, but he eventually agreed, "If you like it, it’s all yours."

Because of these words, Xu Xingguang began to think about that ruby.

Each time she was close to death, she would sympathize with her treasures in her mind. Unexpectedly, when she returned to the real world, the Reincarnation Mirror Fragment truly transmitted her treasures over.

Even the blood-colored pigeon egg was transmitted over.

As Xu Xingguang lowered her gaze to drink tea, her consciousness quietly entered the Reincarnation Mirror Space and opened the fifth ancient book, ’King of War.’ This ancient book contained all the battle strategies she summarized in her life as Lin Piaopiao, along with the treasures she cherished.

Starlight Sword, electromagnetic bombs, God’s Spear, various glittering gemstones...

Finally, in the corner, she saw the blood-colored pigeon egg and a soft whip that could be tied around the waist.

The soft whip was stained with dried blood.

The soft whip was what her father marshal often used as a tool to urge her to study hard when he was alive, eventually wearing it as a belt around his waist. Back then, Xu Xingguang feared this item the most.

But, when they were forced off a cliff by enemy troops, hanging on a crooked tree, her father marshal used this soft whip to wrap around her arm. Her father marshal sacrificed his life to throw her up the cliff while he fell into the abyss down below.

Once viewing the soft whip as a formidable foe, Xu Xingguang then regarded the soft whip as a faith.

Because she had experienced true fatherly love as heavy as a mountain, she felt disappointed when she woke up and faced Xu Zeqing in the real world.

Xu Xingguang did not expect the Reincarnation Mirror Space would actually transmit both these items over to her. Those things she dared not care about, dared not love, were all transmitted by the Reincarnation Mirror to her side.
