Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

The curly-haired girl held doubts about this, pointing out, ”If Marshal Lin was indeed the last Empress of Ancient Xia Country, there should be records of their wedding in history. But historians, after examining all the historical archives of the Divine Hidden Dynasty, have found no records of him being married until the Divine Hidden Emperor retreated to the Infected Zone.”

”I actually think the matter about the Divine Hidden Emperor and Marshal Lin being married is not a fact, but merely a false fantasy constructed by the people of the Divine Hidden Continent.”

The others nodded in agreement, all endorsing the girl’s analysis.

But how could Dongfang Yi tolerate the curly-haired girl questioning their Divine Hidden Emperor?

Dongfang Yi said, ”The Emperor and Empress’s wedding clothes are displayed in the glass cabinet on the top floor of the Divine Concealment Emperor Exhibition Hall, and are the hall’s treasure. With the wedding clothes as evidence, why do you consider this matter to be fabricated?”

Refusing to be outdone, the curly-haired girl countered, ”Just because the Emperor and Empress’s wedding clothes were found in the Divine Hidden Emperor’s storage ring, does that prove the Divine Hidden Emperor and Lin Piaopiao Marshal were married? Perhaps, those wedding clothes were prepared by the Divine Hidden Emperor for him and his former fiancée?”

Dongfang Yi became so furious his face turned red. ”Impossible!”

The girl continued, ”If the Divine Hidden Emperor and Marshal Lin truly had a love as strong as gold, why wouldn’t he even hold a grand wedding for Marshal Lin?”

”If one truly loves another, would they allow them to suffer such grievance?”

Dongfang Yi frowned tightly, arguing back, ”That was because the meteorite suddenly fell, and Marshal Lin Piaopiao’s Lin Family Army happened to be near the meteorite’s landing site. She led the soldiers in relocating the affected people, but got infected and died, which is why the wedding wasn’t scheduled.”

”Historical records note that at the time of Empress’s fall in the Infected Zone, it was precisely when the Divine Hidden Emperor awakened his superpower. A surviving soldier from the Infected Zone testified that he saw the Divine Hidden Emperor holding the Empress, crying bitterly, and placing the Empress Crown on her!”

”In this world, who else is qualified to wear the Empress Crown? Let alone that it was personally placed by the Divine Hidden Emperor!”

”Even if they didn’t hold a wedding, I believe they were truly in love.”

The girl stared at Dongfang Yi with almond-shaped eyes for a while before saying, ”What if it was a secret love?”

Dongfang Yi stomped his foot, ”I’m too lazy to argue with you!” He snorted coldly, ”Don’t think I don’t know, you people from Central Yu Continent refuse to acknowledge the feelings between the Emperor and Empress just because your idol, Medicine King, had a secret love for the Empress but never even touched her hand?”

”You are just jealous and envious!”

Dongfang Yi set down the balance scooter, and flew away in anger.

Xu Xingguang slowed her pace, finally crouching on the roadside, staring blankly at the little supermarket across the street.

Was her death the key to awakening Divine Hidden Crane as a Super Power User?

Also, when did Ying Chong secretly love her?

Xu Xingguang felt that she must visit the Divine Hidden Continent, go to the Emperor Exhibition Hall, to see and hear the story of Divine Hidden Crane and Lin Piaopiao.

She was very curious about what her majesty had done after she left that world.

The next morning, Xu Xingguang got up early from the dormitory building and stood at the entrance of the small supermarket downstairs, nibbling on a nutrient.

Dongfang Yi, holding a few books and a pear in his mouth, was scooting towards the cultural institute on a skateboard.

Noticing Xu Xingguang dazing against the wall, Dongfang Yi stopped and asked her, ”Are you the intern coming from the Infected Zone?”

Xu Xingguang drained the nutrient in one sip, stood up straight, her loose work clothes failing to hide her captivating figure.

Dongfang Yi glanced at her covertly, then quickly averted his eyes.

”You know me?” Xu Xingguang asked with a faint smile.

Dongfang Yi nodded, ”My father told me there’s an intern who came from the Infected Zone in town.” His cheeks turned slightly red as he whispered, ”He said she looks very beautiful.”

In the whole Wuyuan Town, no one could be found more beautiful than Xu Xingguang.

Recently, the boys and girls in the academy were all discussing the beauty of the new intern in town.

Dongfang Yi, living in Central Yu Continent as a Divine Hidden Continent Person, they always carried a special sentiment for the Infected Zone.

That was their hometown, where their last monarch fell.

Xu Xingguang was their first chance to connect with someone coming from the Infected Zone, a rare opportunity not to be missed.
