Wang Teng's Inheritance Ceremony ended in a hubbub.
The ceremony seemed simple, but it was dignified and solemn.
This was the foundation of the Great Qian Empire. Even if it was just a simple Inheritance Ceremony, it was still very interesting to watch.
And today's Inheritance Ceremony left a deep impression on people.
Wang Teng's talent as a Heavenly Son was deeply imprinted in many people's hearts, not only those female warriors.
For a time, Wang Teng's Inheritance Ceremony became a hot topic in the entire Imperial City. Countless people were talking about it.
Even such news was still spreading, through various channels to countless life planets in the Qian Empire's territory.
The universe was well-informed, and with the existence of the virtual universe, the news was no longer limited to one planet.
Wang Teng didn't know any of this. At this moment, he had left the Imperial Palace with those aristocratic strong men.
"Baron Wang Teng, the Inheritance Ceremony is over. Next, we're waiting to drink a cup of wine!" an old baron laughed.
"Yes, yes, the Inheritance Ceremony is a happy event. We'll come and ask for a cup of wine when the time comes." Another viscount didn't appear to be arrogant because of his identity, and he responded with a smile.
Those members of the Royal Family didn't come forward. As members of the Royal Family, they all had their own reservations and pride. They couldn't turn around and become bootlickers because of Wang Teng's talent.
Even if they wanted to draw Wang Teng to their side, they would tie him up with benefits in other ways.
This was a matter of status. Their status was too high!
After dealing with these enthusiastic aristocrats, Wang Teng was relieved.
"Baron Wang Teng!" At this moment, a voice came.
"Deacon of Nether City!" Wang Teng looked over and was surprised.
"Your fief has been settled. The Cabinet Elder asked me to inform you. In addition, I'll accompany you to take back the Nangong Mansion," the deacon of Nether City said.
"The fief has been settled?" Wang Teng was surprised.
"That's right. This was decided by the higher-ups. It's not bad." Ming Cheng smiled.
Hearing this, Wang Teng heaved a sigh of relief. He was worried that the Pyrax family would make things difficult for him to manage.
Now, it seemed that the other party was unable to interfere in this matter.
"Are we going to Nangong Manor now?" The deacon of Nether City asked.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, Deacon." Wang Teng nodded.
He had been in the Imperial City for so long and had yet to find a place to stay. Naturally, the sooner the better.
Moreover, Cao Hongtu had stayed there for so long. It was time to take it back.
With Nether City's help, Cao Hongtu wouldn't dare to play any tricks.
"That's great!" Yuan Gungun was even more excited than Wang Teng and shouted in his mind.
Wang Teng smiled and ignored it. He went to the Nangong Residence with Mingcheng. On the way, he called An Lan and asked him to come over too.
…
Nangong residence.
This was Wang Teng's second time here. Last time, he was a guest. But this time, he was the master. The real master!
At this moment, Wang Teng was standing in front of the door with an Area Lord beside him.
The guards on both sides of the residence saw this and their expressions changed. They didn't even dare to let out a fart.
Wang Teng led the way in and the guards didn't dare to stop him.
"Are we just going to let them in?" A guard asked softly.
"That's a new Baron. His status is different now. Do you dare to stop him?" Another guard said helplessly.
"Sigh, it seems like it's time for us to leave the Nangong residence." A guard shook his head and sighed.
They attached themselves to Cao Hongtu, partly because of his strength, and partly because of his Baron title.
But now, the Baron title was gone. Even if they attached themselves to an Area Lord like Cao Hongtu, their status was much lower. They weren't as popular as the Baron's subordinates.
Wang Teng walked to the main hall. The Cao family members appeared reluctantly, especially Cao Hongtu's family members. None of them were willing to leave the Baron residence.
The Nangong residence was just a facade.
If they went to other places, they wouldn't have such a high and mighty life.
Hence, when they looked at Wang Teng, their gazes were filled with hatred. However, no one dared to say anything. They were afraid of him.
"Senior brother Cao, are you done packing? I'm moving in today. "Wang Teng saw Cao Hongtu come out and laughed.
"Wang Teng, are you really going to be so heartless?" Cao Hongtu said expressionlessly.
He had racked his brains for the Baron title, but in the end, he had lost to Wang Teng, who had appeared out of nowhere. How could he accept it?
"I've already given you two days to prepare. If I really didn't care about your feelings, I would have kicked you out long ago." Wang Teng said indifferently, "Senior brother Cao, you're not going to stay here and not leave, right?"
"Wang Teng, don't go too far!" Cao Guan's eyes were bloodshot as he roared.
It was because of his Baron title that he had lived so comfortably these years. Many people were willing to curry favor with him, but now he had nothing.
When Wang Teng first arrived, Cao Guan was high and mighty and looked down on Wang Teng. Now, he was kicked out by Wang Teng like a stray dog.
The contrast was too great. He couldn't accept it.
And all of this was caused by Wang Teng.
His hatred for Wang Teng was imaginable.
"Senior brother Cao, if your useless son yells at me again, don't blame me for being impolite." Wang Teng's face was calm, but a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Cao Guan's face was pale. A third of his anger was mixed with two-thirds of his fear. He couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Wang Teng ignored him. His words were directed at Cao Hongtu. He didn't care about him at all. This attitude made him feel extremely humiliated.
However, Cao Guan didn't dare to refute. He knew that if he dared to speak again, Wang Teng wouldn't be merciful.
Cao Hongtu ignored Cao Guan. He was completely disappointed in his son. He just stared at Wang Teng and forced three words from his teeth, "You're very good!"
It was obvious that he was trying to control his anger, but he couldn't.
"Of course I'm very good." Wang Teng nodded.
"Hmph!" Cao Hongtu snorted. He didn't argue with Wang Teng. His face was gloomy as he turned around and walked out of the Nangong Estate.
Cao Wu, Cao Ling, and the others followed. Although the rest of the Cao Family members were unwilling, they knew that they couldn't stay any longer. There was no point in saying more, so they could only leave.
"Wait." Wang Teng suddenly said.
"What do you want?" Cao Hongtu turned around and said coldly.
"I want to confirm whether you took away the things that originally belonged to the Nangong Family." Wang Teng said.
"Don't go too far!" Cao Hongtu seemed to be humiliated. His face turned red, and his domain master level aura surged out.
"Hmph!" An Lan snorted and took a step forward, blocking in front of Wang Teng. His aura also surged out.
Boom!
Both sides' auras collided in midair. The shockwaves rolled out.
"Zeng Zeng Zeng!" Cao Hongtu's complexion changed, and he retreated several steps before he could stop himself. His complexion was extremely unsightly.
His gaze was filled with fear as he stared at An Lan.
Back in the fire river sector, he and Sinclair had to work together to fight against this automaton domain lord. However, they had suppressed their strength to the universe level. Hence, they weren't able to confirm his true strength.
Now that both sides had clashed with their domain lord level strength, Cao Hongtu finally understood An Lan's strength.
Even the deacon of Nether City at the side looked at An Lanfeng in surprise, his eyes shaking slightly.
"What strength!"
At this moment, the warden finally understood why Wang Teng had specially called the automaton over.
The opponent's strength was at the peak of the Domain Lord level!
With this automaton domain lord here, even without him, Cao Hongtu would still have to admit defeat.
Cao Guan and Cao Ling and the others didn't know An Lan's strength. Seeing Cao Hongtu admit defeat, only then did they realize that this automaton was actually a domain lord level warrior, and even stronger than Cao Hongtu. Their expressions changed, filled with disbelief.
Wang Teng actually had such a warrior by his side!
Was he really a native martial artist from a remote planet? Why would he have a domain lord level warrior for him to use?
The Cao Family members were filled with suspicion, at the same time even more fear.
"Senior Cao, don't be rash. This mansion is mine now. You've damaged the flowers and plants here, you have to compensate." Wang Teng said.
Cao Hongtu was so angry he wanted to spit blood.
Even Ming City was speechless. He felt that Wang Teng was truly infuriating, too evil.
"…" Even though An Lan was very familiar with Wang Teng, he still felt that he was shameless.
"Senior Cao, don't be angry. This is just a formality. If you don't take it, I naturally won't make things difficult for you." Wang Teng said slowly.
"Region Lord Cao, you should cooperate with us," said the deacon of Nether City.
"Alright, I'll wait here." Cao Hongtu took a deep breath and said.
Wang Teng walked into the house and pretended to check. In truth, he was letting Yuan Gungun take a look.
As an AI, even if a long time had passed, it would still have records.
In the end, it found that many things were missing. Many of them were originally part of the Nangong Mansion's collection.
"Senior Cao, let's calculate." Wang Teng turned and walked out with a smile.
Cao Hongtu saw his expression and his eyebrows jumped. He suddenly had a bad feeling.
"There was a Sea Shark Pearl in this hall. It's worth a lot. It's a treasure of the merman race. Why is it missing?" Wang Teng said.
Cao Hongtu had a deep impression of this. After all, he had given the pearl away.
However, he didn't know why Wang Teng was so familiar with the Nangong Mansion. He had never been here before.
This didn't make sense!
"Bullshit, why would we take something from the Nangong Mansion." Cao Guan hid behind Cao Hongtu and shouted guiltily.
"Do you need me to show you evidence?" Wang Teng said.
Cao Hongtu's expression changed slightly. He wasn't stupid. Seeing Wang Teng's calm expression, he knew that he had a card up his sleeve. If he didn't admit it, when Wang Teng took out the evidence, they would be the ones to lose face.
After all, taking something from the Nangong Mansion without permission wasn't a good thing.
If it was before, with his identity as a disciple of the Nangong Yue, he could take it.
However, it was different now. The title was inherited by Wang Teng. Everything here naturally belonged to Wang Teng.
He was a dignified Domain Lord, yet he had done such a thing. Wasn't he a little too shameless?
"No need. I'll compensate for these things." Cao Hongtu gritted his teeth.
"That's good. I knew that Senior Brother wasn't the kind of person to steal." Wang Teng smiled.
A real shrimp pig heart!
He shot an arrow into Cao Hongtu's knee, not giving him any way out.
"I'll pay you back." Cao Hongtu turned and left. He really couldn't stay here any longer. He wanted to find a hole to hide in.
"I'll give you a list. Remember to check it." Wang Teng said behind him.
Cao Hongtu's body froze and then he walked faster.
"Oh, right. Tomorrow I'll host a banquet for the other nobles. Senior Brother, remember to come!" Wang Teng said again.
Cao Hongtu staggered and finally reached the door. His sorry figure disappeared from the spot.
The deacon and An Lan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They felt that Wang Teng was too cruel to provoke Cao Hongtu to such a state.
Just like that, everyone from the Cao Family moved out of the Nangong Estate.
There were many people from other families who came to gather information. When they saw this, some sighed and some gloated.
They all felt that the Cao Family was pitiful. They didn't expect them to fall to such a state.
… …
Inside the Nangong Mansion.
"Since it's over, I'll take my leave." The deacon said.
"Thank you, Deacon." Wang Teng said.
"No need to thank me. Even without me, you could easily solve it." The manager of Nether City looked at An Lantai deeply and waved his hand with a smile. "The territory range has been sent to your virtual network. You can check it yourself. The relevant procedures have been handled. That star system will be under your name from now on."
Then, he disappeared from the spot. Obviously, he had left.
"This Nether Deacon is also very strong." An Lan's eyes flashed.
"How strong?" Wang Teng asked.
"Just a little weaker than me." An Lan said proudly.
"Tsk!" Wang Teng rolled his eyes.
An Lan didn't mind and laughed.
Wang Teng looked around and sighed. "Finally, I have a place to stay. I don't have to stay in someone else's house."
"You went directly from a commoner to a noble!" An Lan exclaimed. "It's just a little empty. There's no one to serve you. Otherwise, it would be perfect."
"Makes sense." Wang Teng touched his chin.
"You can go to the slave market. There are slaves from all races. As long as they are below the planetary state, they are very cheap. With your current wealth, you can buy as many as you want. You can even afford those above the planetary state." Yuan Gungun's voice sounded in Wang Teng's mind.
"Slaves!" Wang Teng frowned.
To him, slaves were a bit far away.
But when he thought about the beauties of all races, why did he feel a little excited?
"Cough … I, Wang Teng, am not that kind of person." Wang Teng shook his head.
"What are you thinking about?" Yuan Gungun said.
"Nothing." Wang Teng said seriously.
"Don't take it lightly. You're going to invite a noble tomorrow. You can use the necessary servants. That way, people won't look down on you," Yuan Gungun said.
"Okay, okay, I know. I'll go to the slave market later." Wang Teng quickly nodded.
