Chapter 1577 - 1577 Amnesty

1577 Amnesty

His Majesty Gremayne was amused.

A smile that seemed to have seen something interesting appeared on his dignified face. He glanced at Chu Nan from head to toe and shook his head, “Kid, don’t think that you’re qualified to look down on it just because you can comprehend and master the fourth level of the Exterminating Heart Technique from me. Every time you increase the level of the Exterminating Heart Technique, its power and difficulty will multiply. You can master the fourth level of the cultivation method, but you might not be able to master the fifth level.”

“Is that so?” Chu Nan still had a relaxed expression and smiled, “I don’t think so. No matter what cultivation method it is, the characteristics of this cultivation method won’t change. There’s not much difference in essence. To me, it’s only a matter of time.”

After saying that, he pointed at the medium-sized floating shuttle floating in the sky with a cold expression.

“The Elder Council slandered me for secretly learning the Exterminating Heart Technique only because they take this cultivation method too seriously and don’t think anyone has the ability to master it like me through a simple battle. However, I’ve already used this test to prove that I can do it. I’ve also proven that this cultivation method is definitely not as high and mighty as your Declan royal family imagines.”

“Actually, I’m very curious. Since your Declan royal family always calls yourself the number one martial technique in the Milky Way, why do you have to value a mere cultivation method so much? Could it be that your Declan royal family’s reputation for more than ten thousand years has only been built on this cultivation method? If you publicize this cultivation method, your reputation will be ruined?”

At this point, Chu Nan shook his head with a regretful expression.

“If that’s the case, that’s really a pity. To think that when I first started cultivating martial techniques, I had always treated the royal family of Declan as my goal and the Exterminating Heart Technique as the supreme existence in my heart. Now, it seems that it’s only so-so!”

This last sentence instantly ignited the anger in the hearts of the Declan royal family who were watching the battle outside the large drill ground. Even with His Majesty Gremayne present, many people could not help but curse Chu Nan again.

Chu Nan raised his head and looked at the people in the sky with a disdainful sneer without any fear of retreating.

This time, His Majesty Gremayne did not quickly stop his clansmen from cursing. Instead, he frowned and looked at Chu Nan in thought.

After a while, he raised his right hand and gestured. Only then did the angry Declan royal family in the sky slowly stop cursing and focus their gazes on him again.

Not only was His Majesty the current emperor of the Declan Empire, but he was also the current patriarch of the Declan royal family. Now that Chu Nan had publicly insulted the representative cultivation method of the Declan royal family, the Exterminating Heart Technique, and even the entire Declan royal family, as the patriarch, His Majesty Gremayne naturally had to make the most appropriate decision.

“I originally admired you very much because it’s been a long time since I’ve seen a young martial artist with such outstanding talent like you.” His Majesty Gremayne looked at Chu Nan with a strange expression, “However, you’re so arrogant and conceited that you don’t know your limits. You even provoked and insulted the honor and dignity of our Declan royal family in public. I have to punish you.”

“Ha—” Chu Nan sneered, “Your Declan royal family is powerful. You only need to casually send a Star-Grade Martial Artist to take me down. Of course, I can’t resist. Since I’ve already proven my innocence and Princess Pamela’s innocence, it’s up to you to kill me. In any case, I can’t resist, right?”

“I won’t kill you.” His Majesty Gremayne shook his head, “The honor and dignity of the Declan royal family are not protected by killing. Since you dare to look down on the Exterminating Heart Technique and our Declan royal family, you have to accept the anger and test of our race.”

His Majesty Gremayne suddenly looked up at the medium-sized floating shuttle above his head and raised his voice.

“Speaker Anduin, since Chu Nan has already proven his ability, I request to temporarily pardon him and restore his freedom.”

“Ah?”

“No way?”

“Your Majesty, why did you…”

…

The Declan royal family watching the battle revealed surprised, shocked, and unbelievable expressions.

They did not expect that Chu Nan would humiliate the entire Declan royal family in public. His Majesty Gremayne’s first reaction was to let the Elder Council release him!

The medium-sized floating shuttle representing the Elder Council was silent for a moment before President Anduin’s voice sounded.

“Your Majesty, although Chu Nan has passed the test, this only proves that he has the ability to learn the Exterminating Heart Technique through battle, but it can’t prove that he must have learned it through this method. The suspicion on him has not been completely eliminated. Before there’s enough evidence, I can’t casually let him go.”

Hearing President Anduin’s answer, the royal family of Declan who were watching the battle heaved a sigh of relief.

If the Elder Council really let Chu Nan go and let this detestable kid escape, it would really be a huge joke.

His Majesty Gremayne’s expression did not change as if he did not mind President Anduin’s answer. He nodded and continued, “I respect the decision of the Elder Council. In that case, I request to use my patriarch’s privilege to give Chu Nan a month of amnesty.”

Everyone was puzzled again.

What did His Majesty want?

Why did he insist on letting Chu Nan out? He did not even hesitate to use his patriarch’s privilege?

Moreover… why was it limited to a month?

There was silence in the medium-sized floating shuttle for a moment before President Anduin’s voice sounded again.

“Since you’re willing to use the patriarch’s privilege, I agree to your request in principle on behalf of the Elder Council. However, according to the clan rules, I hope you can give the specific details of this request to evaluate.”

“No problem,” His Majesty Gremayne replied, “Chu Nan has obtained amnesty in this month, but he can’t leave Planet Lantis and can’t come into private contact with any Declan royal family. He has to be under the monitoring of the Elder Council at all times.”

The Declan royal family around the large drill ground were even more puzzled.

What did His Majesty Gremayne mean?

If he wanted to pardon Chu Nan, why did he restrict him so strictly? What was the difference between this and house arrest?

If that was the case, why did they pardon him?

President Anduin’s reaction this time was very fast. He only paused for a moment before answering.

“The Elder Council has passed the initial evaluation and can agree to your request. However, Gremayne, as the speaker, I have to remind you that as the patriarch of the Declan royal family, although you have special privileges, you can’t easily use them. Every time you use your special privileges, it will bring about a corresponding price. Are you sure you want to pardon Chu Nan this time?”

His Majesty Gremayne smiled and nodded. “I confirm.”

“Alright, then I’ll make the judgment on behalf of the Elder Council. Chu Nan, because of His Majesty Gremayne’s amnesty request, you’ve obtained a month of limited freedom. In this month, you can’t…”

President Anduin spoke of a lot of things to take note of, but Chu Nan did not pay attention. He only frowned and looked at His Majesty Gremayne in confusion.

Could it be that His Majesty Gremayne… did it on purpose…
