1607 Annulment
This time, nothing unexpected happened after Chu Nan left His Majesty Gremayne’s “preparation bedroom”. As soon as he went out, he was captured by two maidservants and brought to the platform where the floating shuttle of the Elder Council was. Then, he was immediately escorted into the shuttle and left without any delay.

The shuttle quickly returned the way it came. In less than three hours, it had already brought Chu Nan to a familiar place—the hall where he had been judged.

In the hall, President Anduin and the other elders were sitting on the rostrum like the last trial, but there was no longer any royal Declan watching from the surrounding seats. The entire hall seemed to be empty, and it was simply too cold compared to the last trial.

The process of this trial was also very short. President Anduin read out a judgment and expressed that after a detailed investigation, the Elder Council could basically confirm that Chu Nan had not secretly learned the Exterminating Heart Technique, so they announced his acquittal.

The entire verdict was clear and simple. There was no “small tail” that Chu Nan had expected. This also meant that from this moment on, he had finally escaped the crime of secretly learning the Exterminating Heart Technique. It immediately made him heave a long sigh of relief.

After the trial ended, President Anduin found Chu Nan alone.

“Chu Nan, although you’ve relied on your outstanding performance to clear your name, I still have to warn you about something.”

Seeing President Anduin’s serious expression, Chu Nan instantly became worried.

Could it be that the Elder Council still did not plan to let him go and wanted to continue finding trouble with him?

Although he was not that afraid, it was too annoying to be stared at by the Elder Council.

“Although you have indeed proven that you have the ability to master the Exterminating Heart Technique just by fighting with the descendants of the royal family, remember, you only learned it yourself. You can’t impart the Exterminating Heart Technique to anyone else because of this. Remember, it’s anyone. Do you understand what I mean?”

Chu Nan heaved a sigh of relief, “I thought it was something. Don’t worry, Mr. President, I know very well how much your Declan royal family values the Exterminating Heart Technique. I definitely won’t impart this cultivation method to others. However…”

“But?” President Anduin raised his eyebrows, “What? What other thoughts do you have? I’m warning you, don’t try to do anything to anger the Elder Council. If you commit another crime, I definitely won’t let you escape punishment so easily next time!”

“How is it easy this time…” Chu Nan silently complained in his mind. He waved his hand and smiled, “No, no, of course not. I just want to ask. I can’t discuss the Exterminating Heart Technique with others in the future, but it’s not a problem to discuss it with the descendants of the royal family, right?”

Elder Anduo narrowed his eyes and looked at Chu Nan, “Are you referring to Princess Pamela?”

“Yes, including her, and perhaps others. In short, it will only be people from your Declan royal family. I won’t discuss the Exterminating Heart Technique with anyone other than the royal family, let alone impart it in private. Don’t worry.”

“I don’t need to be at ease,” President Anduin said coldly. “Once I discover that you’ve secretly spread the Exterminating Heart Technique, only death awaits you.”

Chu Nan could only roll his eyes, “I know. I’m asking about the communication with the Declan royal family.”

“Even with the royal family, you can’t casually communicate.” President Anduin bluntly rejected it, “If you marry Princess Viennelle and become a member of the royal family, you can naturally communicate at will. However, since you don’t, you’re an outsider to the royal family. Any member of the royal family who exchanges the Exterminating Heart Technique with you will be treated as secretly spreading it to outsiders and will be punished the most severely.”

Chu Nan frowned.

His Majesty Gremayne had clearly asked him to discuss the Exterminating Heart Technique with Pamela and try to help her resolve the problem of her cultivation method. Just now, he had even said that he and Princess Anis should study the cultivation method more. In the end, President Anduin came to say that he was not allowed. What was going on?

Could it be that His Majesty Gremayne did not reach a consensus with the Elder Council? However, why did the Elder Council release him so easily?

Wait!

President Anduin seemed to have mentioned something very important just now…

President Anduin’s words quickly flashed through Chu Nan’s mind and he suddenly reacted.

“About that… Mr. President, you just said that… I didn’t marry Princess Viennelle? What does this mean? Between us… cough, isn’t there still that engagement?”

President Anduin stared at Chu Nan with a complicated expression and suddenly asked, “It seems that you haven’t logged into the Milky Way Network recently.”

“Hmm? What do you mean?”

“You’ll know when you see it yourself.”

Hearing the hidden meaning in President Anduin’s words, Chu Nan could not care less. He opened his personal terminal in front of him and connected to the Milky Way Network.

Before he could consider where to find President Anduin, a message notification jumped out.

“Look at the news.”

The person who sent this message was actually Princess Romanti.

Chu Nan glanced at it and gratefully opened the largest news website on the Milky Way Network. As soon as he opened it, a special news title entered his vision.

“Breaking news! The marriage alliance between the royal family of the Declan Empire and genius martial artists has been shattered!”

Chu Nan’s finger could not help but tremble slightly before he opened this news.

As soon as he opened it, Prince Rokamp’s already familiar face jumped out. Beside him was a text description.

“Prince Rokamp of the royal family of the Declan Empire has made a public statement. In view of the fact that Chu Nan has repeatedly deliberately belittled and insulted the royal family recently, he has continuously provoked them. He has even cruelly heavily injured several descendants of the Declan royal family in a fair battle some time ago and revealed his overly cruel personality. After careful consideration, Prince Rokamp feels that Chu Nan is not suitable to become a member of the Rokamp family, let alone the honorable Declan royal family. Therefore, he has decided to cancel the marriage agreement between him and Princess Viennelle and represent the Rokamp family to strongly condemn Chu Nan’s previous actions…”

Chu Nan did not look back. His gaze froze on the row of words “cancel the engagement between him and Princess Viennelle” and he felt an ecstasy surge into his heart.

That was great!

He had finally done it!

Of course, Chu Nan was unwilling to marry Princess Viennelle because this was not only unfair to Angie Prairie, but it was also unfair to her. However, if he used other methods, it would definitely greatly damage her reputation. Now that Prince Rokamp had directly issued a statement to cancel the marriage agreement between the two of them, the person whose reputation was the most affected was only Chu Nan. The mockery and criticism she received would become minimal. Instead, many people would see it as protecting the reputation of the Declan royal family and she might even be praised.

As expected, in the comments below this news, most people were crazily criticizing or even cursing Chu Nan. They felt that this guy was simply courting death and did not know what was good for him. He did not want such a good marriage agreement but did such a crazy thing, causing Prince Rokamp, who could not endure it anymore, to forcefully cancel the marriage agreement.

Basically, everyone sympathized with Princess Viennelle and felt that she must have been deceived by Chu Nan. Now that she finally recognized his true colors and left the sea of suffering in advance, it was worth celebrating.

Although some people expressed some different opinions and mocked Princess Viennelle for being blind and being publicly slapped in the face by her biological father, which was simply laughable, this was an extremely small number of people. Moreover, everyone who spoke like this was spat back by a group of people and could not fight back.

Chu Nan roughly glanced at these comments and changed to some other websites. He easily discovered that this news that had just been released had indeed become the most popular topic on the Milky Way Network. Almost everywhere was in a heated discussion.

The comments regarding this news were basically the same. They all criticized Chu Nan and sympathized with Princess Viennelle. Many people mocked the entire Declan royal family and felt that it was too embarrassing that they could not do anything to a mere Chu Nan…

After Chu Nan quickly glanced at these news and comments, he could not help but laugh.

“Ha… that’s great. This is simply the most perfect solution! Thank you, His Majesty Gremayne!”

Chu Nan silently thanked His Majesty Gremayne sincerely.

He knew very well that without the support of His Majesty Gremayne, Prince Rokamp would definitely not give up so easily. Now, this method was simply perfect for Chu Nan.
Although Princess Viennelle would still be injured because of this, it had already been reduced to the lowest extent. As for the accusations and insults Chu Nan received because of this…

It would be strange if he cared!
