Chapter 883 Xin’er’s Origins (1)



After the dust had settled, the Mu Stellar King returned to the viewing box where Lin Fan and Xin'er were waiting for them.

Even if Xin'er had the limited understanding of a child, she still had a rough understanding of what had just happened, so she felt a bit nervous meeting the Mu Stellar King again.

After all, he was now the king and not just the uncle that she could talk casually to.

But the Mu Stellar King quickly dispelled her nervousness by saying with a smile, "Xin'er, why are you acting like that? You can still act the same way as before."

Xin'er was surprised to see the Mu Stellar King acting this way, but after seeing Lin Fan give a nod in response, she nodded to the Mu Stellar King with a smile.

The Mu Stellar King also nodded back with a smile before turning to Lin Fan. He calmly looked at Lin Fan for a bit before suddenly bowing his head to Lin Fan's surprise and saying, "Thank you for taking care of…Xin'er."

When he said her voice, he couldn't help hesitating a bit.

It was almost as if he didn't know what to call her by…

But he still chose to say Xin'er in the end.

Lin Fan could tell that this situation wasn't normal, but he calmly gave a slight bow back before saying, "It's not a problem."

The Mu Stellar King raised his head again and then suddenly said, "Can you come with me to a place? I have something that I want to show you."

Lin Fan was about to agree, but then he suddenly noticed something out of the corner of his eyes.

So instead, he said, "Can we go back to my store first? I also have someone that I want to bring along to this."

The Mu Stellar King raised a brow as he looked at Lin Fan, but seeing the serious look on his face, he nodded in response.

So the three of them left the arena without a single care about the people that were still there. There were many nobles that wanted to talk to the Mu Stellar King as he left, but he scared them all off with a single look.

The way that the Mu Stellar King looked at them, it was as if he was prepared to kill anyone that disturbed him.

Under this kind of gaze, naturally not a single person dared to disturb him and Lin Fan.

When they reached the carriage, Xin'er still chose to sit beside Lin Fan in the end. However, that caused the Mu Stellar King to reveal a bit of sadness in his eyes as he had been rejected by her.

Once they arrived at the store, they found that Angela was waiting outside for them.

That was the reason why Lin Fan had wanted to come to the store.

He had noticed in the corner of his eyes from the system display that Angela had come back. As the owner of the store, anything that Angela did with the resources of the store would be reported to him.

So when she came back with the Any Place Door, he had immediately been notified.

When Xin'er saw Angela standing there, she jumped out of the carriage and ran up to her, jumping into her arms.

Angela revealed a faint smile as she held Xin'er in her arms, but she didn't relax for long since she could see that the second prince was also here.

Since she had been away, she didn't know anything about what had happened in the Mu Stellar Kingdom. She didn't know that the second prince had already deposed the Mu Stellar King and had taken the throne.

So she was still wary of him.

But Lin Fan waved his hand for her to calm down.

Angela had a trace of confusion appearing in her eyes, but she still calmed down since she trusted Lin Fan.

She moved Xin'er behind her as she watched the second prince and Lin Fan come over.

Lin Fan had been paying attention to the Mu Stellar King's expression when Xin'er ran out and he had seen that strange look that he had before again…

Just what was this look?

The Mu Stellar King still revealed a smile after seeing Angela since he had already known about her as well.

While he was confused why he didn't see her recently, he had kept tabs on her and he knew about her relationship with Lin Fan and…Xin'er.

He didn't mind at all that she had her guard up and said in a calm voice, "Can you come with me for a bit? I have something I want to show you all and a story I want to tell you."

Angela once again looked at Lin Fan and seeing him give a nod of confirmation, she picked Xin'er up and walked into the carriage.

It took them another half an hour to reach the center of the city where the Mu Stellar King's second prince manor was.

The servants came forward and they all wanted to serve the Mu Stellar King after hearing about what had happened today. They all wanted to seize this chance to gain as many benefits as possible while he still didn't have many subordinates yet.

However, the Mu Stellar King just glared them all down and forced them away before heading into the manor with Lin Fan, Angela, and Xin'er.

He led them deep into the manor, coming into the basement before pressing a button to reveal a secret passage. Going through this secret passage, they continued on for a few more minutes until they finally came to a hidden room.

The door to this hidden room was made from a material that Lin Fan recognized.

This was Flowing Light Mithril, it was the most resistant and hardest metal that one could find in a Stellar Kingdom. This was something that should have been impossible to find, but there was a giant door that was made from this material.

When he looked even closer, he saw that even the hinges and the walls that these doors were connected to were also made from the same material.

It was very clear that whatever was in this room was very important to the Mu Stellar King.

The Mu Stellar King took a locket from his neck and inside of that locket was a fine key that was also made from this Flowing Light Mithril.

He put the key into the keyhole of this door and then turned it to unlock the door. The moment that the door was unlocked, there were various glows that also came from the door.

Lin Fan and Angela both revealed frowns when they saw this because they recognized these glows.

Each single different coloured glow was a different array that had been put on the door. Even the glows that had the same colours were different defensive arrays.

This kind of precaution, even the panic rooms inside of the palace wouldn't have this kind of defense…

The door slowly opened and the light of the room was revealed.

The person sitting inside was surprised to see the door suddenly opening, but seeing that it was the second prince, she revealed a relieved look. She naturally knew what today was and what would happen, but she never expected the second prince to be back so soon.

Seeing the crown on his head, she asked him, "Is it all over?"

The Mu Stellar King gave a nod before turning his head to look at Xin'er.

The woman also followed his gaze and turned to look in that direction. The moment that her eyes fell onto Xin'er, she couldn't stop the tears from appearing in her eyes as she muttered, "Is it really?"

The Mu Stellar King gave a nod in response.

The woman couldn't hold back her emotions as she ran forward towards Xin'er and she cried out, "Bao Bao, it really is you!"

But Xin'er was scared by this person suddenly running towards her, so she hid behind Angela who narrowed her eyes to look at the woman running towards them.

The woman felt a chill hit her when Angela's eyes fell onto her, but she didn't mind it. It was Xin'er's reaction that caused her to stop in the end.

She looked at Xin'er and was heartbroken by the reaction that she had. She had thought that this would be their tearful reunion, but this…

Xin'er couldn't help peeking head out from behind Angela and then she asked Angela, "Mom, who is this person? Why do I feel that she looks familiar?"

The woman looked at Angela with a stunned look that also had a trace of hatred, but she quickly suppressed this since she knew that this person was her benefactor. She was the one that had taken care of and protected Bao Bao when she had been out in the world alone, so she couldn't fault her…

It was just the fact that Bao Bao called her "mom" tore into her heart.

The Mu Stellar King gave a sigh when he saw this as his heart was also filled with pain for his Hua'er.

He turned to look at Lin Fan and said, "I'm sure you're wondering what this is about, aren't you?"

Lin Fan didn't say anything at first, but then he shook his head and said, "I could already guess some of it." As he said this, he took out the token that he had received from Duanmu Hua Yu.

The cherry blossoms that were on this token were the same as the cherry blossoms that were all over this room.

It was clear that this woman was Xin'er's real mother.
