The manager of Nether City came quickly and left quickly. He didn't stay for long, only delivering the clothes before leaving.
Wang Teng personally sent him to the door without any arrogance.
The manager was an Area Lord after all, personally delivering clothes to him was already giving him a lot of face.
"No need to be so polite, from now on you will be a Baron of the Empire, your status is higher than mine" the manager revealed a rare smile and said before leaving.
This was also the first time Wang Teng experienced the special treatment of a noble, even an Area Lord was polite to him.
Then, he returned to his room and spread out the clothes that the deacon of Nether City had sent over. He sized them up.
This was a luxurious purple robe with golden edges, embroidered with a domineering Kunwu beast that seemed to be roaring towards the sky.
According to the manager of Nether City, this noble robe was made with the silk of an Upper Emperor Star Beast, the Purple Crystal Silkworm, using a special method to weave it. Not only is it resistant to water and fire, it also has an extremely strong defense.
An Upper Emperor Star Beast is equivalent to an Area Lord Star Beast, and the Purple Crystal Silkworm is an extremely rare and special Star Beast. The silk it spits out is definitely a heavenly treasure, yet it was actually used to weave clothes, Wang Teng couldn't help but be speechless.
Fan Taining's female disciple, Triste, didn't leave. She stood at the door, looking at the robe, her eyes lit up.
"Master Wang Teng, you will soon be a noble of the Empire" she looked at Wang Teng, her eyes shining.
This young man in front of her is not only a Master, but also a noble of the Empire. He is also so young and handsome, the dream of every girl.
Even though Triste knew the difference in status between her and Wang Teng was huge, and there was no possibility, she still couldn't help but clamp her legs together, as if something was about to flow down.
Ah, this is the water of my heart ~
"Cough cough …" Wang Teng coughed dryly. With his eyesight, he could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with this woman.
But wanting to have any ideas about him was simply wishful thinking.
If it was a beauty like Cao Jiaojiao, he could reluctantly accept her as his mistress.
As for this Triste, although she's not bad looking, she's completely unworthy of him. Furthermore, her talent is mediocre, she doesn't even have the qualifications to serve him tea.
If she wasn't Master Fan Taining's disciple, Wang Teng wouldn't even bother with her.
Wang Teng didn't like it, so he found an excuse to send Triste, who was about to turn into an idiot, away and closed the door.
"Hahaha …" Yuan Gungun appeared and laughed heartily.
"What are you laughing at?" Wang Teng snapped.
"Now you know the benefits of being a nobleman in the Empire. Even this woman wants to throw herself at you," Yuan Gungun said proudly.
"Isn't it because I'm handsome? I think she likes my handsome face, "Wang Teng said.
"Retch!" Yuan Gungun rolled his eyes and retched.
"Round one, scram ~" Wang Teng got angry.
Roundy completely ignored him. He floated to the front of the purple noble's clothes and gently stroked it. There seemed to be a trace of reminiscence in his eyes.
Seeing Yuan Gungun like that, Wang Teng knows that he's thinking about Nangong Yue, but he doesn't know how to comfort him.
Roundy sighed and disappeared in a flash, leaving only a voice echoing in the air.
"Tomorrow is the day of inheriting the title of nobility, you better prepare yourself."
Wang Teng couldn't help but shake his head.
A night passed in the blink of an eye.
…
The next day.
Early in the morning, the square outside the royal palace was already crowded with people. A large group of onlookers had gathered, the sound of discussion piercing through the clouds, creating a lively atmosphere.
Behind the square, there was a long white jade staircase that extended all the way to the sky.
The royal palace was behind the white jade staircase, hidden in a white fog. Only when a breeze blew would a corner of the majestic and magnificent building be revealed.
Further behind, there was a series of mountains that stretched across the sky, piercing into the vault of heaven, shrouded in clouds and fog. It was an extremely mysterious scene.
That was the forbidden area of the Empire. According to legend, the ancestors of the Empire were buried there, and even the divine beast of the Empire, the Kunwu Beast, was hibernating there.
Of course, these were all legends. After all, no one has really seen it.
…
Perhaps because they've been waiting for a long time, the people at the scene became a little impatient.
"Is he still not here?"
"We've been waiting for a long time, but there's not even a shadow."
"I came early in the morning, before the sun even rose!"
"Me too, if I came any later, I wouldn't even be able to squeeze in."
"Humph, isn't it just a baron? Is there a need to be so excited?"
…
Many people were very curious about the following grand occasion. They wondered what the rumored indigenous warrior looked like.
This kind of situation was very rare in the Qian Empire.
In a highly civilized country like the Qian Empire, they had never heard of an indigenous warrior from a remote planet becoming a noble.
This could be considered a first.
Some people thought that they were about to witness a genius, while others thought that it was just a rumor and that the real person might not be so awesome.
Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet.
"Look, that's the Runes flying car of the Empire's Duke family. A noble is coming!" Someone exclaimed.
They saw a Runes flying car descending from the sky. There was a strange flower symbol on the flying car, so many people recognized it at a glance and revealed a surprised expression.
"A scarlet gold iris flower, that's the family emblem of Duke Situ's family."
"I wonder who will come from Duke Situ's family?"
"It's just a matter of inheriting the title of a baron. Duke Situ might not be here."
…
Just as everyone was discussing, a tall middle-aged man walked down from the flying car. He had a dignified appearance, and his eyes were like a tiger's, making people unable to look straight at him.
"Oh my god, it's actually Duke Situ Nan, the heir of the Situ family's Duke title, who came personally!"
"This is too unbelievable. Why would he come personally?"
"Could it be that he thinks highly of the heir?"
"…"
In the Empire, below the eight major royal families, there were five ranks: Duke, Marquis, Count, Viscount, and Baron. This Situ family was the highest ranked Duke title holder, and their status was extraordinary.
After Duke Situ Nan walked out of the flying car, he didn't even look around and directly stepped onto the white jade stairs.
The palace didn't allow flying, even for Dukes of the Empire, so he could only walk up the stairs.
His speed seemed very slow as he climbed up step by step, but in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the mist.
"Hiss, Duke Situ Nan is so strong. It's said that the palace's stairs have Runes restrictions. The higher you go, the greater the pressure, making it difficult for you to move," someone in the know said.
"Of course, the heir of the Situ family's Duke title is at least a realm lord."
"Too scary!"
"Eh, someone else is coming."
Someone noticed that there were Runes flying cars descending from the sky, and everyone's attention was attracted.
This time, it was not just one rune flying carriage that came, but several. After they landed, several figures dressed in purple noble attire walked out one after another, also climbing up the white jade stairs.
"That's the Chen family's Viscount!"
"That's the Wang family's Count!"
"And the Stuart family's Duke!"
…
The people below listed out the noble family names as if they were family treasures. In fact, it was easy to recognize them. Every noble family had a corresponding family emblem, and they had been passed down for countless years, so everyone could recognize them at a glance.
In a short ten minutes, the nobles arrived one after another and climbed up the white jade stairs.
"One of the eight major royal families, the Pilax family!" someone suddenly shouted.
The surroundings fell into silence.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the flying car descending from the sky. Until it landed, people walked down and climbed up the stairs, but no one said a word, as if they were shocked.
"Huu!"
Then, the sound of people exhaling could be heard.
"As expected of one of the eight major royal families, their power is too strong. Even Duke Situ couldn't compare to them."
"Yes, yes, look at the emblem of the Pilax family. That's the legendary Giant Star Beast, the Flame Dragon, right? It's so ferocious and frightening."
"The Pilax family is very strong. Ordinary people don't dare to provoke them."
"Hehe, I heard that the new Baron seems to have a grudge with the Pilax family."
"No way, then he's going to die. What's going on? Didn't the new Baron just come to Emperor Star? Why would he have a conflict with the Pilax family? "
"Who knows, but I'm afraid there will be a good show to watch in the future!"
"Damn, I wanted to see if we should rely on the new Baron, but now it seems like we should forget about it. The Pilax family can't be provoked."
"…"
Voices rose and fell one after another, discussing non-stop, as if they were relishing in the affairs of the nobles.
After a while, another flying car arrived, and everyone's shock didn't stop.
"The Kallandish family is also here, another one of the eight royal families with different surnames!"
"Hehe, the Kallandish family is also a powerful family. They aren't any weaker than the Pilax family."
"These two families have always been fighting with each other. The younger generations never stop fighting."
"There's one more. That's the Ji family!"
"Although the Ji family is also a royal family with different surnames, they keep a very low profile. I didn't expect them to come today."
…
Time slowly passed, and more and more nobles arrived. The square was already filled with their carriages, and the surrounding onlookers had no choice but to retreat, not daring to speak up.
But what was surprising was that all the nobles had arrived, except for the main character.
On such an important day, wasn't the new Baron anxious at all?
Clang!
Suddenly, a distant and desolate sound of a bell rang out abruptly.
The surroundings fell silent!
All the sounds disappeared, and only the bell echoed in the sky, lingering for a long time.
Everyone couldn't help but look up and see the mist on the white jade stairs dissipating, and golden light sprinkled down from the sky.
A dazzling and majestic palace complex finally appeared in front of everyone, and the scene was extremely shocking.
Everyone was absent-minded as they stared blankly at the palace. They couldn't help but have an impulse to worship it, and then all the cultivators knelt on the ground.
The imperial palace was shrouded in mist all year round, and only a few corners could be seen, but it was enough to let people experience its majesty and grandeur. It was rare for it to be completely presented in front of everyone.
Ta!
At this moment, a clear sound of footsteps rang out.
The surroundings were too quiet, so the footsteps were especially abrupt. Everyone couldn't help but look up and look in the direction of the sound.
They saw a young figure slowly walking over from the distance.
He was wearing a purple noble robe, and his figure was tall and straight. He had thick black hair, and his young face was almost flawless. He was handsome to the extreme.
On his chest was embroidered an incomparably mystical Kunwu Beast. It was vivid and lifelike, and as his robe fluttered, it seemed like a living creature.
Oppressive noble aura!
Extraordinary bearing!
A proper prodigy!
"This is the new Baron!!!"
Everyone was shocked, and they didn't know how to express their feelings at this moment.
Is this a f * cking native cultivator from a backward planet??
Who said so?
Come out, I'll beat him to death!
How could a native cultivator from a backward planet have such a bearing? How could he have such a noble aura?
The crowd started to doubt their lives, and they secretly wondered if they had recognized the wrong person. This wasn't the new Baron at all, but the heir of a big noble family, or a prodigy cultivated by a big force. It was just that no one recognized him because he had just been born.
Yes, that must be it!
There were many female cultivators in the crowd, and when they saw this scene at this moment, stars appeared in their eyes.
He's too handsome, and his bearing is too extraordinary!
Such a young prodigy was simply the perfect candidate for a couple.
While everyone was having all kinds of strange thoughts, the figure walked over, passed through the crowd, and finally stopped in front of the white jade stairs.
"Wang Teng!"
A voice came from above, echoing in all directions.
"Here!" Wang Teng raised his head, and his gaze passed through the layers of stairs. His expression was indifferent as he replied.
"Climb the stairway and come before me, and you can inherit the title of Baron!" The voice sounded again.
As soon as the voice fell, purple restriction Runes suddenly lit up on the white jade stairs, and there seemed to be an invisible opportunity on the white jade stairs.
"Yes!"
Wang Teng replied in a deep voice.
"It's, it's really him!"
Seeing this scene, everyone widened their eyes in disbelief, and they all looked at the young figure with his back facing them.
This young man was really the new Baron!
At this moment, even if everyone couldn't believe it, they had to accept this fact.
"Oh my god, this new Baron's appearance is completely different from what I imagined."
"He's too noble, and he doesn't look like a native from a backward planet at all."
"I dare to bet that this new Baron is definitely a prodigy, or else how could he have won the title of Baron!"
…
"Stop talking, it's rumored that the restriction on the white jade stairs is very strange. After it's opened, the more talented one is, the more Runes they will activate, and the greater the pressure. Whether he's a prodigy or not, we'll know by seeing how many Runes he activates."
"Yes, yes, everyone, let's wait and see. I'm so f * cking curious, I wonder how many Runes this new Baron can activate?"
"With such bearing, he's definitely a prodigy. Otherwise, I'll eat sh * t upside down!"
"F * ck, that's ruthless. Brother over there, I'll record your words, and everyone can be witnesses …"
Under everyone's gaze, Wang Teng lifted his leg and stepped onto the white jade stairs, climbing toward the Imperial Palace above.
