Chu Nan helplessly glanced at the small hole in the wall and thought to himself that this was really unpredictable.
A few days ago, when Supremacy Quediro suddenly appeared and captured him, his aura was extremely arrogant. Now that a few days had passed, he had to come and meet him secretly like a thief. He was simply a different person.
Although he spoke so domineeringly, he had actually hidden his whereabouts before contacting him.
In the end, even if he was a Star-Grade Martial Artist, it was impossible for him to dare to appear in public without any reservations when the United States of Melaita was heavily guarded and the five specially invited Star-Grade Martial Artists, Supremacy Melanie, were waiting for him.
“About that… Supremacy, I’ve already told you last time. As long as you’re willing to tell me what to do and how to do it, and then state conditions that satisfy me, this is something that can be discussed. Now that you haven’t said anything, what do you want me to consider?”
“Didn’t I say that?” Supremacy Quediro glared.
Chu Nan looked at him innocently.
Supremacy Quidillo rolled his eyes and nodded before slapping his head.
“Oh, I really didn’t have the time to say it. I only heard you mention what happened in the past few days.”
Chu Nan could only roll his eyes.
“Alright, since you ask…”
At this point, Supremacy Quediro actually revealed the coy expression he had a few days ago. Coupled with his bearded beggar image, it was simply awkward no matter how one looked at it. It was even a little… disgusting…
Chu Nan could only try his best to maintain his expressionless face and wait calmly.
“Cough, cough… Alright, I know. Since I want you to do something, I have to make it clear. Kid, listen carefully, what I want you to do… Hmm…” Although he said that, Supremacy Quediro was still hesitant. In fact, after a few red threads flashed across his old face, he continued, “After the Garden Hunting Assemblyends, according to the usual practice, the young martial artists who win in the end will be recruited into the royal palace of the Declan Empire for an audience with the emperor…”
Chu Nan could not help but interrupt him, “Senior, are you so sure that I’ll win in the end?”
“Nonsense!” Supremacy Quediro glared at Chu Nan, “Otherwise, why would I come to find you? To chat?”
Perhaps it was because Chu Nan’s interruption had greatly reduced his strange shyness, but he spoke much more smoothly next.
“There’s nothing to say about being summoned by the emperor. The main point is that after summoning you, you should pass by a small mountain beside the palace. That mountain doesn’t look strange on the surface, but there are many trees and rocks. The top of the mountain is bare and red. You can recognize it at a glance after you go…”
“Wait!” Chu Nan could not help but interrupt him again, “Senior, why are you so familiar with the royal palace of the Declan Empire? Could it be that you’re actually a member of the royal family?”
“Nonsense!” Supremacy Quediro suddenly cursed angrily, “How can an indomitable man like me be a disciple of that abnormal family?!”
Chu Nan widened his eyes and looked at the extremely excited Supremacy Quediro as thoughts raced through his mind.
Just from this sentence, it could be deduced that there must have been an extremely close relationship between Supremacy Quediro and the royal family of the Declan Empire.
However, looking at the expression on Supremacy Quediro’s face, Chu Nan tactfully did not continue to ask. Instead, he changed the topic and asked, “Then, Senior, what happened after seeing this mountain?”
Supremacy Quediro took a deep breath and slowly calmed down.
“See this mountain? After seeing it, find a chance to climb up. Then, there should be a palace on the mountain with a person living inside. Go in and see her.”
Chu Nan acutely noticed that the words translated through his personal terminal revealed that the “she” Supremacy Quediro spoke of should be a woman.
“Her?”
Chu Nan’s imagination ran wild.
Sneaking to see a woman in a palace in the royal palace of the Declan Empire…
Could it be that Supremacy Quediro was actually so bold to have an affair with a woman in the palace of the Declan Empire?
Even if he was a Star-Grade Martial Artist, this was too ridiculous!
Chu Nan’s first reaction was to reject.
What a joke!
If this guess was true, it was no different from courting death for him to secretly see that woman on behalf of Supremacy Quediro.
If a Star-Grade Martial Artist like him could not sneak in, letting a guy like him who had just successfully condensed a star cloud run was simply courting death!
Of course, Supremacy Quediro was not a fool. He could tell what Chu Nan was thinking from the expression on his face at a glance and sneered, “What are you afraid of? Don’t worry, my relationship with that woman is not what you think. For some reason, it’s not convenient for me to see her, but it’s not a problem to let someone else see her in my place. Even if you’re captured by the guys from the royal family of the Declan Empire, as long as you say that I asked you to go, they won’t make things too difficult for you. At the very least, they won’t put your life in danger.”
Chu Nan was puzzled.
“In that case, Senior, you can just find someone to go on your behalf. Why must you find me?”
“Just go if I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?” Supremacy Quediro glared again. Then, he stretched out his hand and took out the cheapest paper notebook that looked like it had been casually bought from an old stall. He threw it to Chu Nan, “Take it.”
“What’s this?” Chu Nan opened it in surprise and discovered that there were various words and drawings in the notebook. Although he could not understand the words, from the patterns, it seemed to be related to cultivation methods.
“This is an A-rank cultivation method that I’m proud of. It’s called the Hidden Dragon Reconnaissance. Mastering it can allow you to have more precise control of spatial energy. It’s enough to avoid the detection of ordinary martial artists. Even Star-Grade Martial Artists won’t be able to discover your traces as long as they don’t deliberately investigate. Learning it will help you successfully sneak in.”
“So magical? Then why is it only an A-rank cultivation method?”
“Because it has no other use other than this. Do you think an S-rank cultivation method is that easy to evaluate?”
“In that case… do you think using this cultivation method will make me take such a huge risk?”
“What? You don’t want it?” Supremacy Quediro glared at Chu Nan, “Are you looking down on an A-rank cultivation method? Let me tell you, although this cultivation method is useless, no other cultivation method can be compared to it in terms of stealth. If not for the fact that you lost the competition because of me and that it’s easier for you to sneak in after mastering this cultivation method, do you think I’ll give it to you so easily? If you don’t want it, return it to me now.”
Chu Nan immediately retracted his hand and smiled, “How can I not want it? However, Senior, just this cultivation method… is indeed not enough…”
“This is the deposit.” Supremacy Quediro glanced at Chu Nan, “If you complete the mission, I’ll definitely give you a higher reward in the future. It’s not difficult for you to obtain an S-rank martial technique. How is it? Are you interested now?”
“S-rank martial technique?” Chu Nan’s eyes immediately lit up, “Senior, can you reveal what S-rank martial technique it is?”
“We’ll talk about it when you succeed.”
Chu Nan shrugged and suddenly asked, “What if it doesn’t succeed…”
