My Wife is a Hidden Big Shot

Chapter 447 - 409: Trouble Stirs Again (Part 2)

When Kenny heard this, his expression instantly turned ugly. He clenched his fists tightly, silent for a long moment.

Just then, Xavier Marsh pulled a memory card from his pocket and placed it on the table. He said with a semblance of pity, "This is a gift from our President to compensate Karthos for its painful loss of a martial cultivation talent."

Kenny’s expression softened slightly, but then Xavier Marsh added, "However, you’ll need to do the President a small favor."

"What kind of favor?" Kenny’s face changed slightly as he asked cautiously.

Xavier Marsh beckoned him to lean in close.

After hearing what he had to say, Kenny’s expression shifted multiple times. He lowered his voice and asked, "Does such a heaven-defying Cultivation Technique truly exist?"

"Of course. I saw it with my own eyes. It’s just that they are unwilling to share it with everyone, so..."

A gleam appeared in Kenny’s eyes. "Lord Marshall, rest assured. We will make them hand over the Cultivation Technique."

After Xavier Marsh left, one of Kenny’s trusted aides asked with a hint of concern, "Your Highness, we must be cautious. There’s something strange about what that Lord Marshall said. If they truly possessed such a heaven-defying Cultivation Technique, it’s unlikely no one from their country would have participated in the Martial King Level competition."

Kenny glanced at him, then picked up the memory card from the table, examining it over and over. Suddenly, he clenched it tightly in his fist, his gaze dark. "Anyone who can attract the attention of the President must be carrying a great treasure. Even if it’s not a Cultivation Technique, they’ll have something else of value."

"So, are we really going to do as Lord Marshall says?"

"They’re not the only ones who know how to kill with a borrowed knife..."

「Meanwhile.」

Aurora Sinclair and Alvin Morgan were on a flight back to their country.

Unexpectedly, as they were passing over a country on the Western Continent, the plane was struck by a stray bullet.

Just as the plane was about to break apart and everyone on board was facing certain death, Aurora Sinclair used the Power of Heaven and Earth to land it safely.

The only problem was that they had landed within the borders of Karthos.

The survivors on the plane immediately began looking for equipment to contact the outside world for rescue.

Soon, a convoy of green rescue vehicles bearing the flag of Karthos arrived.

"That’s great! We’re saved!" the crowd cheered.

But after they arrived, they didn’t immediately begin the rescue. Instead, they cordoned off the crash site and began searching the plane, as if they were looking for something.

Aurora Sinclair watched with an icy gaze as these men barbarically tossed their luggage to the ground, opening and searching every single bag.

The passengers were furious and went to argue, only to be threatened at gunpoint.

Next, the men demanded that everyone on the plane register their information and identify their luggage.

However, before they had even arrived, Aurora Sinclair had already destroyed most of the passengers’ passports.

Alvin Morgan had also used Ditto Miles to directly hack into the transportation system and alter their personal information.

"Reporting, Captain! The two individuals are not in the registration information."

"Damn it, isn’t this the right plane?" The leader’s face turned ashen.

The reporting subordinate immediately stood at attention and said in a low voice, "According to the intel, they definitely boarded this plane. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have landed safely. They’re most likely hiding among the passengers. We’d better not alert them..."

The leader glanced at the hundred-plus survivors, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.

Afterward, they took everyone to The Oasis and notified the various national embassies, with the Veridian embassy being the last one contacted.

Aurora Sinclair and Alvin Morgan successfully got into a vehicle from the Kingdom of Barria’s embassy and headed for the airport.

The driver looked in the rearview mirror and said to Alvin Morgan, "Mr. Morgan, our ambassador has already arranged everything at the airport. You and your wife can board directly and return home."

However, not long after the two of them boarded the plane, the captain suddenly announced to all passengers that a national treasure of the Karthos Royal Family had been stolen. To prevent the criminals from escaping, all outbound routes were now closed.

The expressions on their faces changed instantly.

After circling in the air a few times, the plane returned to the airport.

Karthos officials had already entered the airport and were strictly checking the information of everyone present.

"You’re from the Kingdom of Barria?" The official checking on Aurora Sinclair and Alvin Morgan looked at their passports with suspicion.

Alvin Morgan replied in the language of Barria, "My father is from the Kingdom of Barria, and my mother is from Veridia. This is my wife; her situation is the same as mine."

The Karthos official eyed them suspiciously a few more times before letting them leave the airport.

Upon arriving at the Kingdom of Barria’s embassy, Alvin Morgan immediately twisted his watch, connecting to Ditto Miles’s system. He bypassed the Karthos network and contacted Aiden Morgan.

When Aiden Morgan saw him, he finally let out a sigh of relief. "Sir, your guess was correct. The international adjudicator from the Western Continent secretly arrived in Karthos two days ago and had a private meeting with Prince Kenny for an hour..."

"Has he left the country yet?"

"Not yet. He is currently at Prince Kenny’s residence."

Before he could finish, Aurora Sinclair suddenly interjected, "What is the national treasure that Karthos announced was stolen?"

Aiden Morgan paused for a moment, then replied, "They haven’t announced the specific name of the treasure yet."

"Send me the names and images of everything in Karthos that could be considered a national treasure."

"Huh?"

Aurora Sinclair said with a deadpan expression, "Let’s give them a hand. It’s hard to put on a good show if the acting is too fake."

"..."

’When did Aurora become so full of schemes?’
