Chapter 1496 - 1496 Helpless
The manor was lush and green, indicating that the southern hemisphere of Planet Lantis was currently in spring.
However, looking at the greenery outside the window, the flowers, red leaves, and greenery, and the various small animals playing and dancing and chasing among the plants, it was an active scene filled with life force. Princess Romanti frowned, and there was no sign of her usual lively appearance.
It was already the third day since Chu Nan was captured.
In the past three days, Princess Romanti had thought of all kinds of ways to investigate information about Chu Nan, but she had never found anything.
She had even convinced Viennelle to plead with her father, Prince Rokamp, but she could not dig out any valuable information from him. As a result, she still did not know how Chu Nan was and what consequences he would face in the Elder Council’s trial.
As for Pamela, who had been captured with Chu Nan, there was also no news. He could not find any information.
In her life, this was the first time Princess Romanti had deeply felt her powerlessness.
In the past, she was only an ordinary princess. It was one thing, but now that she had actually passed the test of the royal family and officially become a “true” princess with the inheritance, she still felt powerless. This made her unable to help but feel a trace of defeat.
When she thought of this, she turned to look at Angie Prairie, who was teasing the folded tiger and leopard-patterned kitten in front of her. She was immediately furious.
“Hey! Angie Prairie, are you still Chu Nan’s girlfriend? He’s still locked up, but you still have the mood to tease the cat?”
Angie Prairie turned to look at the exasperated Princess Romanti and laughed.
“Heh, Romanti, if others see you like this, they’ll think you’re her girlfriend.”
Princess Romanti blushed slightly before saying angrily, “Are you still in the mood to say these words? Aren’t you concerned about Chu Nan?”
“Of course, I’m concerned about him.” Angie Prairie stood up. Although she still had a smile on her face, her tone was much more serious than before, “Chu Nan is the most important person to me other than Master. How can I not care about him?”
“Then you still have the mood to play here?”
“What do you want me to do?” Angie Prairie spread out her hands, “This is the capital planet of your Declan Empire. There are powerful Star-Grade Martial Artists everywhere. The place where Chu Nan is imprisoned is guarded by four Star-Grade Martial Artists, including your father, Prince Rokamp. It’s impossible for me to save him from inside. If I forcefully barge in, other than courting death, there’s no other result.”
Princess Romanti glared and wanted to berate Angie Prairie again, but she knew very well that she was telling the truth. The place where Chu Nan was imprisoned was extremely tightly guarded. Not to mention a mere Heaven Control Martial Artist, even a Star-Grade Martial Artist would not be able to do anything.
“But you can’t just watch here, right?” Princess Romanti frowned, “Isn’t your master a very famous Star-Grade Martial Artist in your Earth Federation? Why don’t you find her to help?”
“I’ve contacted Master, but she said that she can’t do anything about this. If your Declan royal family insists on taking Chu Nan’s life, there’s nothing she can do.” Angie Prairie spread out her hands, “I feel that she’s very right. I can’t ask Master to die because of Chu Nan.”
Princess Romanti opened her mouth and did not know what to say for a moment.
Logic told her that regardless of whether it was Angie Prairie or her master, Supremacy Oville, they were very right. In front of the powerful will of the Declan royal family, even her master, Supremacy Oville, was nothing.
A Star-Grade Martial Artist was naturally a big shot in a small country like the Earth Federation and was naturally valued in the Declan Empire. However, it was not enough in front of the entire Declan royal family, and was definitely unable to shake the thoughts of the Elder Council at all.
“I agree with Master’s judgment. She said that if your Declan royal family insists on taking Chu Nan’s life, he won’t be captured now and should have been killed long ago. Since we’re only capturing him now, it should be because of other reasons or other goals. In that case, our best way is to wait and see and wait for an opportunity,” Angie Prairie said.
Princess Romanti frowned and was silent.
In fact, she agreed with this judgment.
As a member of the royal family of Declan, she naturally knew the style of the royal family better than outsiders.
If it was an ordinary similar incident, according to the history of the royal family, as long as they suspected that Chu Nan had secretly learned the Exterminating Heart Technique, they would definitely punish him. At best, they would completely cripple him, and at worst, they would take his life.
In order to protect the secret of the Exterminating Heart Technique and ensure that the royal family of Declan enjoyed this number one cultivation method in the Milky Way alone, it was not strange for those old men from the Elder Council to do anything.
However, this time, they clearly expressed that they suspected that Chu Nan had secretly learned the Exterminating Heart Technique, but they only captured him and did not kill him on the spot. Moreover, they locked him up for three days without any commotion. This was really strange.
Although Prince Rokamp was unwilling to reveal the detailed situation of Chu Nan to Princess Romanti, he definitely told her that he was still alive and well.
As for the next step, it was still up to the Elder Council to decide.
Princess Romanti could not understand what the Elder Council wanted to do with this change in style. Could it be that they still had to be wary of dealing with Chu Nan?
“Don’t worry, I’ve experienced many life and death trials with Chu Nan. He will always bring about surprises at the most unexpected times and survive intact. I believe this time is no exception.”
Looking at the confident smile on Angie Prairie’s face, Princess Romanti could only smile bitterly.
Previously, she had already felt that Angie Prairie’s personality was really a little too naive, causing people to suspect how she had grown up. Now, it seemed that she was not only naive, she was simply a little stupid!
Could it be that this fellow still hoped that Chu Nan could rely on his own strength to escape under such circumstances? She was simply dreaming!
However…
When she thought of relying on her own strength, Princess Romanti suddenly had a thought.
Since he could not rely on his own strength to escape, he naturally had to seek the help of external forces.
Now, they should have a very powerful external force to ask for help, and that was Prince Lekas.
Chu Nan had previously moved with Prince Lekas in the Endless Abyss and helped him so much. It could even be said that he had saved his life. Now that Chu Nan was in trouble, how could he ignore it?
Thinking of this, Princess Romanti gently patted her head and blamed herself for only thinking of this now.
Just as she was about to open her personal terminal and contact Prince Lekas, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her. She turned around with Angie Prairie and was stunned.
Two figures strode in from outside. One of them was Prince Rokamp, and the other was Prince Lekas.
Princess Romanti’s gaze landed on Prince Lekas’s face and her heart immediately sank.
Prince Lekas’s expression was serious. As soon as he entered, his gaze locked onto Angie Prairie and he walked straight to her.
“Miss Angie Prairie, there are some things I need to talk to you about.”
