Chapter 706 - 266: When You Meet Miss Xu, You Must Show Respect and Filial Piety (Part 2)

Ming Lan instinctively sat up straight.

Emperor Black Card, there are only five in the Divine Hidden Alliance.

He asked the bartender, "Did you see the card number clearly?"

The bartender caught a glimpse earlier and really saw it clearly. He said, "Card number 002."

"..." Ming Lan fell silent all of a sudden.

"Boss?"

The bartender felt strange and said, "That customer wants to buy the latest Loki handheld computer; should we sell it to her?"

This Loki computer is a prized possession that hackers dream of having; their boss uses this model.

Ming Lan finally spoke, but his tone was somewhat off, saying only, "Sell it to her."

After hanging up, Ming Lan rushed downstairs to his grandfather’s room.

Ming Feng was awakened by his grandson in the middle of the night and watched the live broadcast of the competitive escape game together. He saw Miss Xu Xingguang use the blue light from her fist to blow up the surveillance system of Hell Palace and was too excited to fall asleep.

Just half an hour ago, the news of Hell Palace’s destruction on Bai Ze Island had already spread throughout the Divine Martial Realm.

Ming Feng knew that since his mother had arrived in the Divine Martial Realm, Hell Palace was just the first unlucky victim she dealt with.

He couldn’t wait to see more evil forces being destroyed by his mother.

Ming Feng originally planned to rest for a while but then received a call from the security captain of the Exhibition Hall.

After learning that all exhibits related to the Divine Hidden Emperor inside the Exhibition Hall were buzzing and vibrating, Ming Feng guessed that his Emperor must be back!

Ming Feng decided to take a morning shower, change clothes, and go to work at the Emperor Exhibition Hall.

Ming Feng hummed a tune, finished his shower, and wrapped himself in a towel to walk out.

Opening the bathroom door, he looked up and bumped into his eldest grandson standing outside the bathroom, giving him a fright. "You brat, what are you standing here for!"

"Grandpa, were you humming just now?" To be honest, hearing Grandpa singing while showering earlier made Ming Lan feel a bit mystified.

His grandpa, usually calm and mature, seemed childishly happy today.

Ming Feng chuckled, "Grandpa’s happy."

But Ming Lan was not happy.

"Grandpa." Ming Lan’s eyes showed resentment.

Ming Feng noticed and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?" It made him feel a bit guilty.

Ming Lan asked him, "Grandpa, where’s your Emperor’s Sub-card?"

Ming Feng’s eyes flickered, but he remained silent.

Ming Lan raised his eyebrows, accusing Ming Feng, "Grandpa! Am I not still your most beloved grandson? On my tenth birthday, when I asked you for the Emperor Black Card, you said it was precious and you’d give it to me when I’m an adult."

"On my adult birthday I asked again, and you said you’d give it to me when I settle down. Every time you drew me a pie, I ate it. Guess what? Ha, the pie’s gone, eaten by an unidentified woman!"

The more Ming Lan spoke, the angrier he got, looking at Ming Feng with eyes full of suspicion. "Grandpa." Ming Lan looked at Ming Feng incredulously and said, "Are you hiding something from us, like finding us a young grandma?"

From the year Ming Lan was born, his grandfather has been single.

As far as he knew, Grandpa became a widower very young and never remarried.

Now that he’s old, almost ready to be buried, is he going for a second spring?

"Nonsense!" Ming Feng slapped Ming Lan on the head, "No new love, that’s your Old Ancestor!"

Ming Lan: "Grandpa, you can joke now too." The oldest Old Ancestor in their family is Ming Feng; where else would there be another Old Ancestor!

"Ming Lan." When Ming Feng calls out Ming Lan’s full name, it means he has something important to share.

Ming Lan instinctively returned to seriousness.

Ming Lan is the smartest child in the Ming Family, cultivated personally by Ming Feng from a young age as the family heir.

Ming Lan’s authority in the Ming Family has surpassed that of his father, uncles, and uncle, making him the most authoritative person after Ming Feng.

Though young, he is already recognized as the family successor.

Traditionally, after Ming Feng’s death, Ming Lan will personally bury him. A century or two later, Ming Lan or his trained successor will bring Ming Feng back from the grave.

"You are already 20 years old. It’s time you learned the family’s secrets. Next, I will reveal something to you, something you must not share with anyone else."

Ming Lan’s heart sank, realizing that what Grandpa was about to say would be of the highest family secrecy.

Ming Lan nodded solemnly, "Grandpa, tell me; I’m listening."

Ming Feng walked to the window with hands behind his back, gazing at the Emperor Exhibition Building in the center of Emperor City in the distance. After pondering briefly, he said, "I am not your real grandfather; my real name is not Ming Feng but He Yuanhang."
