1506 Don’t Want Him to Die

After changing his clothes, His Majesty Gremayne also recovered his supreme dignity as the emperor of the empire. He waved his hand and got the surrounding maidservants to retreat. Then, he waved at Prince Lekas and turned to walk towards the wall where he had built a huge rock.

The two of them strolled over. Soon, they passed through the wall and walked out, but they happened to be at the cliff at the top of the mountain.

Gremayne stopped at the edge of the cliff and focused his gaze on the distance. He took a deep breath and suddenly asked, “Lekas, do you know why I chose this place to build this house?”

Prince Lekas turned around and looked at the house that had only completed three walls so far. He shook his head.

“I don’t know. I only know that the main reason why I didn’t want to fight for this throne back then was because I didn’t want to build a house myself. This is really too stupid.”

“Oh? Isn’t it because you can’t defeat me?” Gremayne smiled at Prince Lekas.

Prince Lekas sighed and spread out his hands.

“I could not defeat you since I was young, so I had long known that my talent was inferior to yours and my focus on martial techniques was inferior to yours. Of course, it had always been impossible for me to defeat you, so I had long given up on the thought of fighting for the throne. Look, I did not even have the intention to challenge you at that time and directly announced that I had given up, right?”

Gremayne focused his gaze on Prince Lekas as if he wanted to see something from his expression. However, he quickly gave up on this thought and smiled.

“Then do you know? Sitting on this throne is definitely not as good as many people think. In fact, many times, I’m very envious of you. As the prince of the empire, you can go wherever you want. You can interfere in whatever you want and ignore whatever you don’t want to interfere in. Most of the time, I can only force myself to perk up and deal with those things that I’m unwilling to pay attention to. Look, the reason why I chose to build a house here is because I feel that this house is close to the cliff and can escape at any time.”

“Don’t think about it. If you really escape, it will definitely be the greatest news in the entire Milky Way… Oh, no, it’s a scandal. You don’t want to become the protagonist of a scandal, right?” Prince Lekas laughed.

“Of course, I don’t want to.” Gremayne shook his head and turned to look at Prince Lekas, “However, this time, we rarely cooperated with that b*stard, but we almost suffered a huge loss. If the news is exposed, it can be considered a scandal. As the emperor of the empire, I’ll still become the protagonist of the scandal, right?”

Prince Lekas smiled bitterly, “You indeed know why I’m here to find you. That’s right, I just want to find you to discuss how to deal with the next cooperation with the Noctem Chamber of Commerce. Do you have any thoughts?”

“Tell me your thoughts first,” Gremayne said.

“Alright.” Prince Lekas nodded and did not stand on ceremony. He directly said, “My thoughts are different from those guys in the empire. They feel that there’s no benefit in cooperating with the Noctem Chamber of Commerce and will only be cheated of things by that merchant. However, I don’t think so. Although there are many problems in the process of this cooperation, the result is good. Be it us or the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, we’ve obtained a lot. One of them is very important and will even change the structure of the entire Milky Way. Therefore, I feel that our cooperation needs to continue and dig deeply. Otherwise, if we let the Noctem Chamber of Commerce gain the initiative, we’ll be very passive.”

Gremayne pondered for a moment and asked, “You’re talking about the teleportation door technology?”

“Yes. There’s a very important role in this operation. It’s a young girl who called herself Carola to outsiders after participating in the second stage of the Garden Hunting Assembly. She has a deep understanding of the teleportation door technology and has very detailed data information. However, according to our investigation, she… should actually be a complete biological clone developed by a research institute under the Noctem Chamber of Commerce. Clearly, she will definitely be affected and controlled by the Noctem Chamber of Commerce. If she brings these data back to the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, it will definitely give them a huge advantage in the research of the teleportation door.”

“Carola?” Gremayne narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Prince Lekas for a while. He shook his head and suddenly said, “Are you deliberately not mentioning Chu Nan? In terms of understanding the teleportation door, it’s obvious that he’s the most important person.”

Prince Lekas did not expect Gremayne to directly point it out in advance. He could not help but choke. Then, he instantly reacted and directly nodded and admitted, “Yes, I indeed deliberately did not mention him first. I believe you know the reason.”

Gremayne looked at Prince Lekas deeply and shook his head slightly.

“The Elder Council represents the entire Declan royal family. Although I’m the emperor of the empire, I still can’t interfere in their decision. Moreover, I agree with the judgment of the Elder Council. The Exterminating Heart Technique represents the most fundamental and core benefit of our Declan royal family. It’s the most important thing that we can stand for more than ten thousand years. We definitely can’t allow any problems to arise in this. Therefore, anything related to leaking the Exterminating Heart Technique has to be handed to the Elder Council to determine independently. I believe you understand what I mean.”

“Of course I understand.” Prince Lekas shrugged, “Therefore, aren’t I here to find you? To be honest, I admire Chu Nan very much. He can be said to be the most outstanding young martial artist I’ve seen in so many years and is even more outstanding than all the young people in the empire. If he dies, it will definitely bring about a huge loss…”

“But he’s not from our Declan, but from the Earth Federation, right?” Gremayne interrupted Prince Lekas, “He won’t directly bring benefits to the empire. It’s not a wise choice to oppose the Elder Council for him.”

“Then let’s make him one of us,” Prince Lekas said.

“Hmm?” Gremayne was slightly stunned, “You mean?”

“Let’s not talk about this for now.” Prince Lekas did not immediately answer Gremayne’s question. Instead, he deliberately kept him in suspense.

Just as Gremayne frowned and wanted to ask, he opened the personal terminal on his arm and pulled out two pictures on the virtual screen.

These two pictures were both of Princess Pamela.

The picture on the left was the previous Pamela and the picture on the right was the current “transformed” Pamela.

“You should know her, right?” Prince Lekas pointed at Pamela and asked.

“Of course, she’s the other protagonist of this leak of the Exterminating Heart Technique.” Gremayne nodded lightly, “The report says that her body became like this because she was injected with a large amount of chaotic biological genes by the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance. Is this information accurate?”

“It’s accurate, but not completely,” Prince Lekas replied. “Don’t you think it’s strange? According to our race’s previous speculations about Pamela, if she participated in the Garden Hunting Assembly, it was very likely that her cultivation method would directly collapse during this period of time and she would die. However, she has successfully survived the Garden Hunting Assembly now and even survived after being injected with a large number of chaotic genes. Even the cultivation method problem in her body has basically been resolved. Don’t you want to know the reason?”

“These reasons are not written in the report, and this report has clearly been processed by you. Are you asking me now?” Gremayne looked at Prince Lekas in anger and amusement.

“Cough… I just feel that writing this in the report might not attract your attention. In fact, through the information I obtained from Chu Nan and his girlfriend, Angie Prairie, I can basically confirm that the main reason for this change in Pamela is Chu Nan.”

Gremayne frowned, “You just said that the problem of Pamela’s cultivation method has basically been solved. Now, you’re telling me that the main reason is Chu Nan. Isn’t this telling me that she indeed leaked the Exterminating Heart Technique to him?”

“I believe she didn’t, and I believe Chu Nan didn’t secretly learn it because he…” Prince Lekas frowned as if he did not know what to say. After thinking for a moment, he continued, “He’s a very magical young man. His understanding of cultivation methods far exceeds ordinary martial artists, and even… in some places, even I’m inferior to him. It’s not strange for him to be able to find a way to resolve the problem of Pamela’s cultivation method.”

“You have a high evaluation of him,” Gremayne said.

“No, it’s not very high. It’s very high,” Prince Lekas said seriously without any joking or exaggeration, “This is also the reason why I insist on turning him into one of us. Moreover, the reason why I want to persuade you is because I feel that since he can help Pamela resolve the problem, he might be able to help Zinoan resolve it.”

Hearing the name “Zinoan”, Gremayne’s expression involuntarily changed slightly. Even the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

“Why did you mention Zinoan?”

“Because I believe Chu Nan can.” Prince Lekas still had a serious expression, “However, if you want to do it, you have to ensure that Chu Nan doesn’t die first. That’s why I came to find you.”

Gremayne took a deep breath and turned to look out of the cliff in silence.

Prince Lekas did not rush him and waited calmly at the side.

After a long time, Gremayne gently exhaled and turned to look at Prince Lekas.

“Lekas, I’ve told you many times that I don’t like your way of doing things. If you want to protect Chu Nan’s life, you can use many methods. I’ll only watch from the sidelines if you directly interfere with the council, but you have to use this method to lure me. According to the laws of the empire and the clan, you’ve already made a huge mistake.”

Prince Lekas’s expression did not change as he smiled at Gremayne.

Gremayne took another deep breath, and his expression completely calmed down.

“Tell me what you think.”
