Wang Teng did not wait too long. After receiving the news, the noble elders quickly rushed to the Noble Review Pavilion.
Rune-sourced flying cars were seen stopping outside the Noble Council Pavilion, and then, figures with powerful auras got off the cars and strode towards the Council Pavilion.
There were many people gathered around the Noble Review Pavilion who had heard the news. Some were watching the excitement and some were inquiring about the news. However, none of these people dared to come within a hundred meters of the Review Pavilion.
The Imperial Noble Council Pavilion is an extremely solemn and sacred place in the empire. Not to mention ordinary warriors, even nobles would not dare to trample on it, let alone make noise in front of its door.
At this time, a flying car fell from the sky, and a brown-haired man in his thirties got out of the car, who was the Cao family member.
"It's Cao Guan!"
"He's actually coming!"
"As another protagonist in this matter, how could he not come?"
"I heard that his father, Territory Master Cao Hongtu, is practicing on other planets, and I'm afraid he won't be able to get there for a while, so he is in charge now."
…
People outside were talking in low voices and talking enthusiastically about this matter.
For ordinary warriors, the affairs of nobles have always been the focus of people's attention. After all, nobles enjoy too many preferential treatment. Whether it is jealousy or envy, everyone will subconsciously pay attention to it.
Cao Guan heard these discussions, snorted coldly, and strode into the noble council chamber.
In the hall of the Review Pavilion, Ming Cheng opened his eyes and said calmly: "All the elders are here, come with me."
Wang Teng calmed down and drank the last sip of tea before standing up and following Ming Cheng.
This made Ming Cheng even more surprised. What kind of trump card does this kid have, so he is confident? Or is it because he doesn't know what the existence of the Review Pavilion means at all, and he who doesn't know is fearless?
Wang Teng followed Ming Cheng directly to the ninth floor of the Review Pavilion and entered a huge and simple hall.
Entering the main hall, the first thing that catches the eye is a long table made of unknown dark blue wood, which looks heavy and elegant.
At this moment, the long table was already full of people, including men and women, old and young. They were all dressed in purple robes, luxurious and noble, with an innate sense of refinement and nobility on their faces.
What's more important? The auras of these people are very powerful, far beyond the cosmic level. Just sitting there doing nothing makes people feel palpitations.
This is the pressure of the strong!
When Wang Teng walked into the hall, all these people looked at him with unclear meaning in their eyes, and there was a vague pressure that enveloped him.
"Oh, what a big battle!" Wang Teng couldn't help but smile in his heart.
His steps did not stop at all, as if he was not affected by anything? His expression was extremely calm.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise.
This young man has something!
"Are these imperial nobles? There is an ancient family standing behind them, with extraordinary status and great power. Please be careful later." Yuan Gungun reminded him in his mind.
Wang Teng suddenly noticed that a very hostile gaze fell on him, and he never looked away.
Following his gaze, he saw a handsome man with brown hair at the end of the long table, looking at him with cold eyes.
"Who is this person?" Wang Teng asked in his mind.
"I don't know either!" Yuan Gungun looked at the man and was suddenly startled: "But it looks familiar? Could it be that guy's descendant?"
"Please take a seat!" At this time, a slightly older voice came from the top of the long table.
Wang Teng raised his eyes and saw an old man with pale hair sitting at the head of the long table, looking at him calmly.
"This is the elder of the Review Pavilion!" Yuan Gungun said: "I met him once when I followed Master Nangong to the Review Pavilion to inherit the title? I didn't expect that after so many years, he is still not dead."
"How can such a strong person die so easily?" Wang Teng ignored Yuan Gungun's complaints. He glanced at the opponent with [Spiritual Vision Eyes], unable to see through his strength at all.
I'm afraid this old man is not a world lord level powerhouse.
Wang Teng found an empty seat at the end of the long table, which happened to be face to face with the brown-haired man, so he walked over and sat down, then looked directly at the man.
"..." Cao Guan was suddenly confused.
Doesn't this kid know who he is?
So confident!
Who gave him the courage? Who gave him the courage?
Cao Guan's eyes became more gloomy, but he had already retracted his gaze. It was really disrespectful to look at someone with big eyes and small eyes.
Wang Teng sneered in his heart.
Isn't it just a matter of eyes?
Who is afraid of whom!
As long as you are not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.
Wang Teng's behavior was naturally noticed by others. Many people showed interest, but some frowned.
"Are you here for the title of Baron Nangong?" At this time, the white-haired old man at the head asked.
"Yes." Wang Teng nodded.
In front of such a powerful person who was suspected of being a world lord, he was still very honest and did not show the slightest hint of the unruly look he had when facing Cao Guan.
This is not cowardice, this is respect for the strong!
"Then in what capacity do you come here?" the white-haired old man asked.
"Of course as the successor." Wang Teng said calmly.
Upon hearing the words "successor", Cao Guan's expression changed and he glanced at a certain position above him.
"Oh, do you have proof?" the white-haired old man asked again.
"Reporting to Mr. Ge, he bears the square seal of Baron Nangong." Ming Cheng said from the side.
When Wang Teng heard this, he took out the square seal again and placed it on the table.
When Cao Guan across from him saw this square seal, his eyes turned red.
This baron seal is a symbol of status. They did not get this baron seal and only had the identity of Nangong Yue's disciple. After all, their reputation was not justified.
This has always been a major worry for him and his father!
Now this baron seal appeared in front of him so grandly!
It's a pity that he couldn't snatch it away.
The most painful thing in the world is this... I'm so angry!
What kind of people are there here? They only need one glance to conclude that the square seal in front of them is the baron seal of the empire.
Regardless of whether Wang Teng's identity as heir is true or false, the baron seal is at least true, which gives Wang Teng's identity an extra layer of aura.
"What do you think?" the white-haired old man said calmly.
There was silence all around, as if no one wanted to be the first to speak.
Cao Guan's face was gloomy and he stopped talking.
"Cao Guan, what do you think?" The white-haired old man called him by his first name and asked directly.
"My lord, I believe that this person's origin is unknown. Maybe he just got lucky. He got my master's baron seal from somewhere and claimed to be his successor. What is the real situation? I hope that the Noble Council can order a thorough investigation.
." Cao Guan glanced at Wang Teng and said with a trace of ridicule on his lips.
"Sorry, I want to ask, who are you?" Wang Teng interrupted him and asked.
Cao Guan felt as if he had been slighted. He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said: "My father is the only disciple of Baron Nangong - Cao Hongtu! And I am naturally the disciple of Baron Nangong."
"It turns out to be a grandson." Wang Teng said.
"..." Cao Guan's anger that had just calmed down couldn't help but burst out again. He snorted coldly and said to everyone around him: "My lords, my father is the only disciple of Baron Nangong. In name, my father is the only disciple.
A legitimate successor, not just because someone holds the seal of baron."
"Cao Guan is right. If anyone with a baron seal can claim to be the heir, then my title in the Daqian Empire will become a joke."
"In name, Cao Hongtu is definitely more suitable."
“This matter needs long-term consideration!”
When everyone around heard Cao Guan's words, they couldn't help but whisper.
Cao Guan glanced at Wang Teng with a proud look on his face.
"Fart! It's just a fart! Master Nangong never said that he would inherit the title to Cao Hongtu. He is not qualified at all." Yuan Gungun roared in Wang Teng's mind. If he didn't still have a trace of reason, he would almost jump out.
and Cao Guan theory.
"Don't get excited, things have just begun." Wang Teng took out his ears, sneered in his heart, and said lightly to Yuan Gungun in his mind.
It seemed that Wang Teng's calm tone made Yuan Gun Gun find his confidence. He gradually calmed down and said coldly: "Wang Teng, slap him in the face for me. I am now 90% sure that Cao Hongtu and Nangong were the same.
The master's death is inseparable. The boy in front of me is his son, so let's collect some interest from him first."
Wang Teng waited with great interest for Cao Guan to finish speaking, then turned to the elder Ge and said, "I wonder if I can ask a few questions?"
"Yes!" The white-haired old man nodded.
"I would like to ask, the empire has regulations. If the baron has not made a will, can his disciples be qualified as successors?" Wang Teng asked with a faint smile on his face.
"There is no such rule!" said the white-haired old man.
"I would also like to ask again, did Baron Nangong leave a will that made your father his successor?" Wang Teng looked at Cao Guan and asked.
Cao Guan's expression suddenly changed.
"Aren't you going to answer my question?" Wang Teng tilted his head and stared at him with a compelling look.
Cao Guan looked gloomy.
"Is there any?" Wang Teng asked calmly.
Cao Guan was extremely aggrieved, but could not answer directly.
Originally, when Nangong Yue had no other relatives or descendants, Cao Hongtu, as his only disciple, was the successor. Whether there was a will or not was operable. Cao Hongtu made many connections and finally gained a lot in the Review Pavilion.
He voted and became the temporary baronet.
As long as he makes enough achievements, he can remove the word "temporary" and obtain the real title of baronet.
But now Wang Teng, who holds the seal of baron, suddenly appears, and the lack of a will has become Cao Hongtu's biggest problem.
"Baron Nangong did not leave any will." The white-haired old man glanced at Cao Guan and said.
"I understand, thank you Mr. Ge for your answer." Wang Teng nodded, then turned to look at Cao Guan, and asked calmly: "So, where does your so-called righteousness come from?"
"You!" Cao Guan's face was ashen and he stared at Wang Teng as if he wanted to eat someone.
