Chapter 1600 - 1600 Anise
1600 Anise
The royal palace of Declan occupied a large mountain peak on this glacier alone, but it naturally could not completely occupy the entire glacier.
In fact, the continuous mountains were not completely covered by ice. Not far away from the palace, a mountain that was much smaller than the mountain peak where the palace was stood.
This small mountain had a strange appearance. Not only could the ice not be seen on the surface, but there was even a large green forest that should not be seen in this dimension and climate on the mountainside. Below the mountainside, various strange rocks were stacked, completely blocking the route to the foot of the mountain.
However, the most strange thing about this small mountain was not here, but at the top of the mountain.
Looking up, he discovered that the top of this small mountain was bare, but it revealed a dark red color. It was as if the entire mountain was formed by dark red rocks and soil, and there was almost no other color.
The reason why it was said to be “almost” was because there was a pure white hut standing quietly at the top of the mountain. It was especially eye-catching against the dark red background.
Chu Nan landed outside the hut.
The Hidden Dragon Reconnaissance Technique allowed his figure to maintain an almost completely invisible state from the beginning to the end, causing him to hide all the way from the palace without being discovered.
Looking at the pure white hut in front of him, Chu Nan hesitated for a moment and confirmed that it should be the destination he was looking for.
The small mountain outside this palace was completely identical to the characteristics described by Supremacy Quediro. It was impossible for there to be any mistakes.
However, he did not expect that there was only such a small house at the top of this mountain. It was completely different from the palace side hall he had expected.
Regarding this, Supremacy Quediro did not describe it at all and only told Chu Nan that he was there.
“I can tell at a glance, but…” Chu Nan quietly moved to the side of the hut and looked around. He could not find any other place that could hide people and could only helplessly continue to touch the hut, planning to observe through the window before making a decision.
Just as he was about to reach the wall of the hut, a few footsteps suddenly sounded from inside. Then, the doors of the hut were opened and a slender figure walked out.
Chu Nan looked at that person in surprise and discovered that this person was a middle-aged woman. Although she was clearly not young, from her facial features and overall appearance, the young man should be a beauty. Moreover, her temperament was noble and cold. Clearly, she was not a maid in the palace.
“Could it be that he’s the person Supremacy Quediro asked me to find?”
Chu Nan cursed Supremacy Quediro in his mind.
This Star-Grade Martial Artist of the United States of Melaita asked him to come to the palace of the Declan Empire to find someone, but there was no video information provided. He only said that Chu Nan would naturally know when he came, causing him to be unable to confirm if the person he was looking for was the person Supremacy Quediro had asked him to see.
Just as Chu Nan was about to make up his mind and directly ask, the middle-aged woman suddenly turned around and looked in his direction.
Chu Nan was shocked.
Could it be that he had been discovered?
Then, he shook his head. This was impossible.
Although the Hidden Dragon Reconnaissance cultivation method was only an A-rank cultivation method, it was a cultivation method specially taught to him by Supremacy Quediro, a Star-Grade Martial Artist. The ability to hide traces of this cultivation method was much stronger than some S-rank cultivation methods. Chu Nan had previously used this cultivation method to dodge the detection of countless powerful martial artists, including a few Star-Grade Martial Artists.
He could not sense any powerful aura from this middle-aged woman. It could be seen that she should be an ordinary person, so how could she know that Chu Nan was here?
However, even if he was not discovered, Chu Nan actually planned to appear and ask. He was a little worried that he would scare the other party if he suddenly appeared, so he planned to turn around and appear in another direction.
As soon as he moved, the middle-aged woman’s voice suddenly sounded.
“What’s your relationship with Quediro?”
The middle-aged woman’s voice was as cold as her temperament, but it was like a thunderclap in Chu Nan’s ears, immediately causing him to stay on the spot in shock.
Had he really been discovered?
Moreover, his identity had actually been directly exposed?
Chu Nan’s thoughts flashed and he instantly threw away the last trace of doubt.
This middle-aged woman was definitely the person Supremacy Quediro had asked him to find.
When he thought of this, Chu Nan retracted his Internal Breath and put away the Hidden Dragon Reconnaissance Technique. He appeared from his hiding place and bowed to the middle-aged woman.
“Are you Senior Anise?”
The middle-aged woman glanced at Chu Nan from head to toe and snorted.
“What? This coward didn’t dare to come himself, so he sent a kid like you over? This guy is still as selfish as before. Isn’t he worried that you’ll be captured and killed by the people in the palace?”
Chu Nan smiled awkwardly and scratched his head, “Supremacy Quediro helped me a lot. This can be considered my repayment to him. As for being worried about being captured… if I’m not confident, I won’t come to die myself.”
Before he came here, Supremacy Quediro did not provide much relevant information to Chu Nan. He only said the characteristics of this small mountain and the name of the woman he was looking for. Apart from that, Chu Nan did not know anything else, but from Anise’s words, it was enough to reveal a lot of information, causing his imagination to run wild.
Anise snorted again and asked, “Tell me, why did he ask you to take the risk to find me?”
Chu Nan smiled bitterly and spread out his hands, “Originally, Senior Quediro asked me to bring the token over, but after coming to the Declan Empire, I’ve experienced too many bitter battles. Everything on me has been completely destroyed and the token has been thrown away. I can’t take it out.”
“There’s no need for a token. It’s enough that you know the Hidden Dragon Reconnaissance Technique.” Anise shook her head, “What I want to ask you is, didn’t he ask you to bring a few words when he asked you to come?”
“Of course there is.” Chu Nan glanced at Anise with a strange expression. He paused for a moment before coughing lightly and continuing, “Senior Quediro asked me to tell you that he has thought for 40 years and has finally confirmed the answer in his heart. If you’re willing to see him, he’ll come himself. However, if you’re unwilling, he doesn’t dare to disturb your cultivation.”
The corners of Anise’s mouth curled up into a mocking smile.
“What? He finally found the answer after 40 years? That’s really gratifying.”
Chu Nan frowned.
From the reaction of Supremacy Quediro and Anis, the relationship between the two of them was probably a little subtle. When Supremacy Quediro asked Chu Nan to find Anise, he was filled with anticipation. Moreover, Anise’s reaction was so cold, so how could he respond to Supremacy Quediro?
When he recalled that Supremacy Quediro had done his best to help him on the Perseus Arm and did not even hesitate to fight Supremacy Ottoford, Chu Nan felt that he should work hard.
“About that… Senior Anise, do you have the contact number of Supremacy Quediro?”
Anise indifferently glanced at Chu Nan, “Why would I have his contact number?”
Chu Nan smiled awkwardly and raised his left wrist to reveal the personal terminal he had bought when he was strolling in Topple City a few days ago. He gestured to Anise, “If you’re willing, I can contact Supremacy Quediro now and let you meet. What do you think?”
“Why should I see him?” Anise asked coldly.
Chu Nan scratched his head. From Anise’s reaction, she probably had a deep grudge against Supremacy Quediro, but this reaction also showed that she still cared about him.
Perhaps… after knowing Anise’s current reaction, Supremacy Quediro should be satisfied.
“Then… can Senior Anise leave your contact number with me?” Chu Nan tried to ask.
Anise frowned slightly. She glanced at Chu Nan again and suddenly asked, “What’s your relationship with Quediro?”
“I…”
Just as Chu Nan was about to answer, Anise shook her head and suddenly stretched out her hand to grab him.
