1508 Close Relationship with the Royal Children
Pamela stood there and widened her eyes to look at Chu Nan. Although she did not speak, her eyes and expression revealed obvious concern.
Chu Nan smiled and waved his hand at her, indicating that he was fine. At the same time, he seriously sized up Pamela from head to toe.
Although he could not investigate the situation in Pamela’s body through direct contact, from the surface, it was obvious that she was not injured. Most importantly, her mental state was quite good. She still maintained the arrogance that was almost the opposite of before after her “transformation”. Her eyes were bright as she looked at Chu Nan without holding back as if she did not take the surrounding people seriously.
Seeing her like this, Chu Nan put down his greatest worry.
It seemed that the royal family of the Declan Empire had a much better attitude towards their descendants. Pamela’s encounter in the past few days should be slightly stronger than his. She might have been interrogated, but at the very least, she would not be tortured.
As for the trial…
Chu Nan felt Pamela’s fixed gaze on him and could not help but smile bitterly in his mind.
If she appeared to be so concerned about him, wouldn’t that prove their crime even more?
Bang!
A muffled sound suddenly sounded from the high platform in front of him, interrupting the gaze exchange between Chu Nan and Pamela.
Chu Nan turned to look at the stage. An especially old man in the middle of the row of old men and women put down the stone brick-like thing in his hand. His eyes shot out a sharp gaze that did not match his age and nailed Chu Nan.
With just a glance, Chu Nan felt a subtle and strange change in the spatial energy fluctuation around him, causing him to feel very uncomfortable.
After quickly analyzing this discomfort through his powerful brain, Chu Nan could not help but be shocked.
Under the influence of this subtle fluctuation change, the entire spatial energy environment around him actually showed signs of collapsing, causing any thought of controlling spatial energy to definitely become more complicated and difficult.
This special sign was clearly the effect of activating the Exterminating Heart Technique. Now, it was only because that old man had glanced at him.
Chu Nan immediately put away the last trace of contempt in his heart and focused his gaze on the old man as his heart skipped a beat.
This old man who looked like he could die at any time had unbelievable attainments in the Exterminating Heart Technique. It was even more shocking than the standard that Prince Lekas had displayed previously!
The royal family of Declan was indeed filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It was even more difficult for the elder council of these 13 people.
It was almost impossible for him to escape safely from the current environment.
On the high platform, President Anduin retracted his gaze and a trace of surprise flashed through his heart.
He had used an extremely special high-end technique in the Exterminating Heart Technique to test Chu Nan earlier and was immediately sensed by him. This did not surprise him because the report had long clearly pointed out that this kid from the Earth Federation was extremely talented and his perception of the change in the spatial energy environment around him was abnormally outstanding. It was not strange for him to sense this test.
However, Chu Nan immediately made the most correct response. He instantly released his aura and changed the fluctuation of the surrounding spatial energy, minimizing the effect of the Exterminating Heart Technique on him. This made President Anduin feel surprised.
Not only was this kid’s reaction abnormally fast, but his ability to control the spatial energy around him was also extremely powerful, and it seemed to be extremely precise and exquisite. This level simply should not appear on a young man like him who was only 20 years old. Generally speaking, only veteran martial artists who had been tempered in martial techniques for many years could do this.
Just this test made President Anduin confirm that what the report said to Prince Lekas was not exaggerated at all. He even held back.
This kid was definitely an extremely rare super martial arts genius!
However, from that small test just now, he came to another conclusion. This kid was clearly extremely familiar with the Exterminating Heart Technique, which was why he could make the most correct response immediately and deal with it so cleverly.
When he thought of this, President Anduin’s expression sank and he whispered, “Chu Nan, do you know how serious your crime is?”
Chu Nan was slightly stunned.
This old man who looked to be the most decisive person actually convicted him as soon as he spoke. What was the point of judging?
He frowned slightly and shook his head.
“I don’t know. Please tell me.”
“Hmph!” President Anduin sneered and raised the thing that was very similar to a piece of shocking wood to slap the table heavily, “You’re not from our Declan royal family. You actually dare to secretly learn our race’s most precious Exterminating Heart Technique. Could it be that you don’t know your crime? Let me tell you, according to the rules of our race, any outsider who secretly learns the Exterminating Heart Technique will become our race’s mortal enemy. Once they’re captured, they’ll immediately be sentenced to death!”
Chu Nan shook his head with a serious expression, “I don’t understand what you mean. Although I’ve always yearned for the Exterminating Heart Technique, I’ve never had the chance to secretly learn it, let alone dare to. I’m close to a few descendants of the nobles and know a little about the rules of the nobles. I know very well how serious the consequences of secretly learning the Exterminating Heart Technique are, so how can I dare to secretly learn it?”
“You said that you’re close to a few descendants of our race?” President Anduin’s eyes suddenly widened, and his eyes which were originally a little turbid because of his old age shone brightly, “Which descendants of our race are you referring to?”
“This…” Chu Nan pondered for a moment and knew that it was useless to hide this, so he replied, “There are many people I’ve interacted with, but not many can be considered close. There’s Princess Romanti, Princess Viennelle, and Prince Montique…”
Chu Nan listed almost all the descendants of the royal family of the Declan Empire he had come into contact with. In the end, he turned to look at Pamela on the left.
“…Of course, there’s Princess Pamela.”
After saying that, Chu Nan turned to look at President Anduin.
“To be honest, it’s very unreasonable for you to suspect that Princess Pamela privately imparted the Exterminating Heart Technique to me, because there’s a problem with her learning the Exterminating Heart Technique. If she can’t cultivate it herself, how can she teach me? Instead of suspecting him, it’s more reasonable for you to suspect the other princes and princesses.”
Chu Nan knew very well that since the Declan Royal Elder Council had captured him and Pamela, they must have received some news. However, they clearly did not have very definite evidence to prove that he had secretly learned the Exterminating Heart Technique from her and could not easily execute him to resolve future trouble for some reason, so they prepared such a trial.
It was impossible for him to change this trial alone, so he could only try his best to muddy the waters.
Even if he could not completely clear his name, he could not let Pamela bear the crime of leaking the Exterminating Heart Technique alone.
Although it was a little unkind to drag Princess Romanti and the others down, the view that the law could not punish the masses was suitable anywhere.
Even if they were confirmed to be problematic, it was impossible for the royal family of Declan to pin the blame on the most outstanding descendants of the royal family of their generation, because this was a serious loss that they could not accept at all.
“You want to say that they’re also suspected of teaching you the Exterminating Heart Technique in private?” President Anduin sneered and slapped the table again, “Alright, send them up.”
“Hmm?”
Chu Nan was stunned. He turned around and saw a row of people entering from a door opened by the hall. The leader was Prince Montique. Behind him were Princess Romanti, Princess Viennelle, and all the princes and princesses he had come into contact with.
Among them, even Princess Kasyapa, who he had only seen once in the Endless Abyss and had not interacted much with, was included.
“Alright… you really caused such a huge commotion. Is there a need?”
Seeing such a large group of princes and princesses walk in expressionlessly and stand separately, Chu Nan grinned and felt extremely strange.
