1539 Hostility and Killing Intent

“Let’s get back to the topic.” Prince Lekas pondered for a moment and said, “Even if you’re sure that Chu Nan can help you complete your research on the teleportation door, so what? Do you think I’ll hand him to you like this?”

“Of course not.” Hearing that Prince Lekas’ tone had loosened, Elkart immediately smiled, “So aren’t we negotiating now? Our Chamber of Commerce actually won’t ask for so much. After all, he’s in your hands now, right? However… we at least ask you to ensure that he’s alive. The value contained in him is too rich. It’s too wasteful to die. In addition, after this matter is settled, I hope that our two sides can cooperate more on his foundation. The most important thing is the teleportation door. Believe me, if this research is successful, it will bring great benefits to your Declan Empire. Moreover, we can guarantee that we’ll share some very precious technology with you first.”

“Share technology?” Prince Lekas raised his eyebrows, “About the technology of the teleportation door?

Elkart smiled and shook his head, “I’m not the one discussing the specific technology with you. My goal in coming today is only to reach a consensus on Chu Nan’s handling.”

Prince Lekas also shook his head. He smiled lightly and took another sip of red wine. He pondered for a moment and finally said, “Don’t worry, I know the value of this kid very well. Otherwise, why do you think I made it so troublesome?”

Elkart straightened his expression again, and his eyes became sharp again.

“But why have I heard that many people in the nobles want to take advantage of this opportunity to harm him?”

Prince Lekas laughed and waved his hand.

“They’re only some clowns. They’re not worth mentioning.”

“But this might bring danger to Chu Nan and even make him lose his life!” Elkart emphasized.

“Don’t worry.” Prince Lekas still did not mind, “Just as you have absolute confidence in his brain ability, I also have absolute confidence in his ability in martial techniques. It’s impossible for those guys to kill him.”

Elkart frowned slightly. Although he was still a little worried, he knew very well that since Prince Lekas had already said this, it was meaningless to remind him.

He took a sip of the red wine in his hand and turned his head slightly. His gaze landed in a corner of the hall.

There, Carola was standing upright in an extremely compatible gown that did not match her temperament.

Her almost completely still appearance was completely incompatible with the atmosphere in the entire hall. At first glance, she looked simply like an accessory.

Only when Elkart looked over did she feel his gaze. She moved her neck and also looked over, then revealed a questioning expression to him.

Ekart nodded at her and smiled reassuringly.

Carola immediately seemed to have been given a string. Her entire body instantly seemed to have completely relaxed, and a sincere information smile appeared on her delicate face. It was as if a frozen flower had suddenly bloomed and immediately became lively and beautiful.

Elkart was stunned and could not help but click his tongue in wonder.

“Heh, it seems that those fellows from the Gamalan laboratory were not bragging when they said that they had obtained a breakthrough in cloning technology. Carola’s feelings have actually become so rich. However… this might be related to Chu Nan?”

…

Of course, Chu Nan did not know that Prince Lekas and Elkart, these two important figures in the Declan Empire and the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, would be together and talk to him as the theme. Moreover, even if he knew, he did not have the time to pay attention to so much because all his attention was on his opponent.

From the way his opponent looked at him, he felt an undisguised strong hostility, and he also felt a trace of true killing intent that was not so well hidden.

It was very likely that this guy came with the intention to kill him.

Chu Nan was not surprised.

Even without Princess Viennelle’s whispered reminder, he was not surprised that someone wanted to take advantage of this test to harm him and even kill him.

In the end, the last sentence he said at the trial belittled the Exterminating Heart Technique. It was equivalent to belittling the entire Declan royal family. These guys who had always thought highly of themselves naturally did not like him.

As for those who wanted to target him because Prince Lekas had stood up for him, there were naturally many people who wanted to target him.

After all, there were so many people in the royal family, so they were definitely not united. It was most normal for there to be internal conflicts.

However, the hostility of the guy in front of him was so obvious that his killing intent was not hidden so well, causing Chu Nan to be a little surprised.

This guy was so obvious. Was he really not afraid of offending Prince Lekas, or could it be that the conflict in the Declan royal family had actually become public to this extent?

Chu Nan could not help but raise his head and look at the surrounding Declan royal family who were watching the battle. He thought to himself, I wonder how many of these onlookers support Prince Lekas and how many are as hostile to me as this guy?

“Hey, kid, what are you looking at?” When the Declan royal family member who looked to be in his early thirties saw that Chu Nan had actually raised his head to look elsewhere, he could not help but shout, “Your opponent is me now. If you don’t pass my test, don’t expect anyone else to test you.”

Chu Nan retracted his gaze from the surroundings and looked at his opponent. He smiled and said, “Alright, let’s begin. Can you tell me the name of the cultivation method you want me to learn through the battle later?”

“Hmm?” This young Declan royal family did not expect Chu Nan to be so straightforward. After being stunned for a moment, he continued to raise his head and answer proudly, “I can tell you. Listen carefully, my cultivation method is not a martial technique in fists and feet, but an Internal Breath cultivation method called the ‘Myriad Ant Demon Devouring Divine Technique’. This cultivation method is not as simple as the few cultivation methods you secretly learned previously. If you can learn it like this, I really believe you can learn the Exterminating Heart Technique yourself.”

“Is that so?” Chu Nan smiled again and did not comment.

After convincing the middle-aged royal Declan who came up to test the first place, he fought three more royal Declans in a row.

Just like the first person, these three people chose an external martial technique to test Chu Nan. Without any difficulty, he skillfully used these three cultivation methods and successfully passed the test.

Now, as soon as this guy came up, he chose an Internal Breath cultivation method.
