Chapter 1229 - 1229 Who Said I Haven't Heard of It?
1229 Who Said I Haven’t Heard of It?
An intense sense of danger instantly invaded Chu Nan, causing his Internal Breath to involuntarily surge out of his dantian. It instantly triggered all the spatial energy contained in his body, and even the large amount of spatial energy in the surrounding space was triggered.
The four star clouds in his dantian spun wildly at the same time. The spatial energy mobilized was immediately affected by the four star clouds and began to condense in four different structures at the same time, preparing to erupt with the strongest strength.
However, this change only happened for an instant before it was immediately suppressed by Chu Nan.
He quickly adjusted his Internal Breath to completely stabilize it, causing the crazy abnormal movements of the spatial energy around him to completely calm down. His expression only changed for a moment before returning to normal.
He was certain that the danger he felt at that moment far exceeded the danger he had sensed at any time before.
However, this was only a glance from Prince Lekas.
Without a doubt, the pressure this Prince Lekas brought to Chu Nan was far greater than the death pressure he felt when he first entered the alternate space through the stargate.
Although it was only a glance, Chu Nan was already completely certain that the strength of this Prince Lekas had definitely surpassed everyone he had seen before.
Even if Chu Nan had already directly come into contact with so many Star-Grade Martial Artists, he was still certain that this prince’s strength had clearly surpassed them.
“The prince of the Declan Empire is indeed not only famous.”
This thought flashed through Chu Nan’s mind and he quickly composed himself. He revealed a perfect smile to Prince Lekas and bowed slightly.
“Greetings, Your Highness.”
A trace of surprise flashed through Prince Lekas’s gaze when he looked at Chu Nan. Just as he was about to speak, Princess Romanti could not stand it.
“Hey, Uncle Lekas, Chu Nan is my friend and Viennelle’s. You’re not allowed to treat him like this.”
“Huh? Friend?” Prince Lekas’s expression was even more surprised, “Did I hear wrongly? Our cute but proud Romanti actually acknowledges a kid from outside the empire as a friend?” After saying that, he turned to Viennelle, “In that case, the person you mentioned not wanting to burden is indeed this kid?”
“Yes, Uncle Lekas.” Princess Viennelle nodded without any hesitation, “Chu Nan has already saved me a few times. I don’t want to always trouble him to save me, so after serious consideration, I chose to leave. I don’t think there’s any problem with this choice.”
“Alright, if you say there’s no problem, there’s no problem.” Prince Lekas shrugged and turned to look at Chu Nan, “However, this kid is really interesting… Hey, kid, your name is Chu Nan? Where are you from?”
Paramel, who was standing behind Prince Lekas on the right, could not help but glance at him with a strange expression.
The prince clearly knew Chu Nan. Previously, because he had defeated Glurik, it had eased the situation of the descendants of the royal family facing the martial artists of other countries. He could specially report it to the prince.
In the end, he was still asking Chu Nan in front of him and pretending not to know him. What did he plan to do?
Chu Nan naturally did not know these things. He nodded obediently, “Yes, Your Highness. I’m Chu Nan from the Earth Federation. I’m a small country located outside the Orion Arm. I don’t think you’ve heard of this name.”
“Who said I haven’t heard of it?” To Chu Nan’s surprise, Prince Lekas immediately retorted, “Not only have I heard of it, but I’ve also even been there. Let me tell you, I took risks all over the Milky Way when I was young. Not to mention other places, I’ve at least seen every country in the Orion Arm. Speaking of the Earth Federation, I once fought with someone there. What’s that guy’s name… Right, he seems to be called Mu… Mu something?”
Chu Nan could not help but grin.
Could there be such a coincidence?
“About that… Your Highness, could it be that you’re talking about Supremacy Mu Yutong?”
“Mu Yutong? Oh, right, that’s his name. His strength is not bad. At that time, he was actually able to fight me to a draw without using the Exterminating Heart Technique. Now, he’s still… Right, you call him a Supremacy? In that case, he’s already a Star-Grade Martial Artist?”
“Yes. Supremacy Mu Yutong is one of the famous Star-Grade Martial Artists of our Earth Federation. I still had the chance to meet him a few times before.”
“Oh, that’s right. With his talent, it’s not surprising that he has become a Star-Grade Martial Artist after so many years. You’ve only seen him a few times? In that case, you’re not his disciple?” Prince Lekas asked again.
“Yes, Supremacy Mu Yutong only once guided me. He’s not my master.”
“Then who’s your master? Your strength is so outstanding, so I believe your master shouldn’t be bad.”
“This… I don’t have a master.”
“No master?” Not only Prince Lekas, but the others around him, including Princess Romanti, Princess Viennelle, and Paramel, who had heard this answer for the first time, revealed surprised expressions.
“Kid, could it be that you want to tell me that you can have your current strength because you cultivated it yourself?” Prince Lekas asked in surprise.
“Hmm… you can’t cultivate it yourself. I’ve also been to the martial arts academy and have even received the guidance of Supremacy Mu Yutong and the other Star-Grade Martial Artists of our Earth Federation. Without them, I wouldn’t have my current strength.”
“Oh?” Prince Lekas narrowed his eyes slightly, “You said that many Star-Grade Martial Artists of your Earth Federation have guided you? In that case, you should be a genius nurtured by your Earth Federation with all your might.”
Chu Nan smiled and did not answer.
He deliberately gave the previous answer because he wanted Prince Lekas and the others to have such a misunderstanding.
Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to explain his strength, and he did not want to deal with so many questions.
Leaving this space for the other party to guess was the best way to deal with it.
As expected, when he saw that Chu Nan did not answer, Prince Lekas was not angry. Instead, he revealed a thoughtful expression. After seriously sizing him up, he revealed an appreciative smile.
“Yes, that’s right. Although the Earth Federation is an inconspicuous small country, they’re willing to invest in martial techniques. They’re much stronger than some old large countries.”
At this point, Prince Lekas sneered and glanced at the people behind him. He did not even let go of Princess Romanti and Princess Viennelle.
“Even many people in our empire are far inferior to your small Earth Federation. They only think that they’re the number one country in the martial techniques of the Milky Way all day long and don’t want to improve. They’re willing to degrade themselves!”
The people behind him were silent like cicadas in winter. No one dared to make a sound. Even Princess Romanti only curled her lips and did not respond.
Chu Nan could only smile bitterly. He knew that he had been used by Prince Lekas once, but he was helpless.
After berating, Prince Lekas chuckled and nodded at Chu Nan.
“Alright, you seem to be looking for Paramel? Although I don’t know what it is, this is your business. I don’t care. Paramel, talk to this kid elsewhere. I’ve seen Romanti and Viennelle now, so I have to have a good chat with them. Come, the two of you, follow me.”
Prince Lekas waved his hand and left with the unwilling Princess Romanti, Princess Viennelle, and the group of people behind him. Soon, only Chu Nan and Paramel were left.
After they walked far away, Chu Nan gently exhaled.
“I didn’t expect this prince to appear. Heh, Commander Paramel, how’s Feng Mingxi now?”
The corners of Paramel’s mouth twitched, and he revealed a bitter smile.
“This… Chu Nan, I’m really sorry. Your friend… has a problem…”
