Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

”I really don’t have any.”

The fact that the other party could silently enter her room indicated they were a skilled person. Ying Jing was alone in the Mortal World, and she was somewhat afraid of dying.

Moreover, her superpower was very weak, not much stronger than the people of the Mortal World.

If the other party really wanted to kill her, she truly had no strength to resist.

”Who said you don’t?” Huo Wen’an stared at the black line on Ying Jing’s neck, faintly visible. ”Your Passage Token, you can lend it to me.”

Huo Wen’an reached out and grabbed the Passage Token from Ying Jing’s neck, putting it around his own neck in front of her.

Ying Jing was stunned. ”You took my Passage Token, I can’t go back!”

”Then don’t go back.” Huo Wen’an sincerely said, ”You’re a guide from the Divine Martial Realm; Old Madam Ying and the others will surely treat you as an honored guest. Besides, Old Madam Ying’s health is deteriorating, and I’ve heard your acting skills and Disguise Technique are exceptional. Why don’t you stay in the Mortal World for a few more years as Old Madam Ying?”

Huo Wen’an truly thought this was a good idea.

”Bastard!” Ying Jing cursed, ”I must return to the Divine Martial Realm. Your Mortal World is a polluted dump, I absolutely cannot live here!”

She was from the Divine Martial Realm; how could she stay in such a filthy place as the Mortal World!

”Dump...” Huo Wen’an felt a chill in his heart. ”Do you know that the dump you’re speaking of is the homeland that your ancestors once lived in and fought for!”

Hearing this, Ying Jing said dismissively, ”That was ages ago.”

”You bastard, return my Passage Token!” Resisting her inner panic, Ying Jing said, ”Before departing for the Mortal World, I left a wisp of my energy in the family’s energy bottle. If I die, that energy bottle will explode.”

”You think that holding my Passage Token means you can sneak into the Divine Martial Realm? Impossible, I’ll do everything I can to commit suicide.”

Nodding, Huo Wen’an said, ”Then let me kill you first, and then use your Passage Token to enter the Divine Martial Realm. Once inside, we need not go to the Ying Family, we can go somewhere else. Anyway, nobody knows what we look like; even if the Ying Family wants to pursue it, they can’t find anyone.”

”From what I know, besides the Central Yu Alliance where your Ying Family resides, the Divine Martial Realm also has the Eastern Alliance and the Divine Hidden Alliance. The Divine Hidden Alliance are followers of the Divine Hidden Crane; as long as I run to the Divine Hidden Alliance and explain that I come from Xia Country as a descendant of the Divine Hidden Emperor, they will surely be very willing to take me in.”

”Don’t you agree?”

After saying this, Huo Wen’an raised his Divine Hidden Sword and without hesitation thrust it towards the center of Ying Jing’s chest.

Realizing that Huo Wen’an would truly kill her, Ying Jing panicked and hurriedly shouted, ”I have two more Passage Tokens!”

The tip of the Divine Hidden Sword stopped just at the fabric covering Ying Jing’s chest.

It didn’t pierce through, but it made her heart ache painfully.

Ying Jing, enduring the pain, urgently said, ”I have two spare Passage Tokens given by the Family Head before I left. He told me if I encountered young medical geniuses, exceptions could be made to bring them back to the Ying Family.”

”I, I can give you those two Passage Tokens, but you must return my Passage Token to me.” Ying Jing said with trembling lips, ”I can’t stay in the Mortal World; staying here will shorten our lifespan.”

”Oh?” Huo Wen’an interrogated Ying Jing, ”The poison gas in the Mortal World has long disappeared; why do you say that people from the Divine Martial Realm coming here will have their lifespan reduced?”

Ying Jing, stammering, said, ”I don’t know why either; I’ve only heard that every once in a while, the Divine Martial Realm sends criminals who have committed serious crimes to the Mortal World and then measures their lifespan.”

”They found that those who were previously strong and healthy grew weaker in physical condition and ability once they entered the Mortal World. Even their lifespans were much shorter than normal Super Power Users.”

If not for this, the group of lunatics in the Central Alliance would have stormed into the Mortal World long ago.

”I’ll give you those two Passage Tokens, but you must return my Passage Token to me. Otherwise,” Ying Jing said, ”without my help, you won’t find a way into the Divine Martial Realm either.”

”Deal.”

After ’borrowing’ two Passage Tokens from Ying Jing, Huo Wen’an returned to the forest villa and, after a careful discussion with Xu Xingguang, finally decided to take Zheng Qin and Ying Ziyao to the Divine Martial Realm.

The reason being that the technological advancements in calculators in the Divine Martial Realm could be learned from by taking Zheng Qin there. Moreover, Ying Ziyao is a genius in traditional medicine who spent three years in the Divine Martial Realm and has some understanding of it.

Ying Ziyao’s return to the Divine Martial Realm could help Xu Xingguang quickly find a way to eradicate the mutation crisis.

Upon learning that he could also go to the Divine Martial Realm to study, Zheng Qin immediately packed all his belongings to prepare for departure. Worried that the Divine Martial Realm wouldn’t have his favorite milk tea or hot pot, he took some time to go to the supermarket to buy a large batch of authentic spicy hotpot base and instant milk tea packets.

Ying Ziyao had already packed his things, ready to return to the Capital City.

He was carrying his suitcase out of the forest villa when he bumped into Huo Wen’an.

”Captain Huo?” Ying Ziyao looked at him in confusion and asked, ”Is something the matter with me?”

Huo Wen’an tossed him a black token.

Ying Ziyao quickly caught the token and glanced at the object hanging on his fingers, seeing the Passage Token with the shadow of the Medicine King Tower printed on it, his expression was incredibly shocked.

”Isn’t this the Passage Token to the Divine Martial Realm?” Many years ago, he had also received such a token. ”Captain Huo, how do you have this thing?”

Shouldn’t only Xu Xingguang and the other two winners have this thing?

Huo Wen’an said, ”I stole it from a messenger sent by the Ying Family in the Divine Martial Realm.”

”What?” Ying Ziyao was dumbfounded, not expecting such a move.

When they initially went to the Divine Martial Realm, it was the Ying Family’s escort who welcomed them. At that time, both the three winners and the then Family Head of the Ying Family were extremely respectful to the escort sent by the Divine Martial Realm.

They were even afraid of offending the escort by talking too loudly, let alone thinking of robbing them!

”Come with me to the Divine Martial Realm, and let’s find a way to resolve the mutation crisis together. But keep in mind, this Passage Token was stolen, and when we arrive in the Divine Martial Realm, we are likely to be wanted by the Ying Family.” Huo Wen’an asked Ying Ziyao, ”Doctor Ying, do you dare venture into the Divine Martial Realm with me?”

The usually calm black eyes of Ying Ziyao flashed with a wild glimmer.

He clenched the Passage Token, flashed a radiant smile, ”Alright!”
