"What's a grand noble?" Asked a youth with a curious gaze and innocent face. His clothes were made from animal hide and from a glance, one could tell he was a country bumpkin.
The man beside him replied calmly with a hush voice, "they are the descendants of the powerful figures who help the Emperor of Humanity fight the otherworldly tribe. Even the Emperor of Humanity bestows these figures with the power of a deity.
There are some versions, however, some said grand nobles are actually descendants straight from the deities."
The bumpkin youth nodded and the man added, "the grand nobles held a special status. They are just like ordinary nobles but a bit more powerful and with their status. They can get everything they want."
The youth was shocked and amazed when he heard that and envied the man in white robe. He day dreamed about how good it was if he was born as a grand noble.
Everything he wanted, he could get it without much effort.
Seeing that the youth began to foolishly daydream, the man said, "it's not as you imagine. Even though grand nobles could get everything they want, they have strict rules of it. If not, many countries would be destroyed because of a simple order due to a ridiculous reason."
The boy frowned and seemingly at a loss.
After the man said that, another man who heard his words joined the conversation and told a story of the distant past.
It was said a kingdom was destroyed because the grand noble who visited it felt that his food was poisoned and the grand noble then wanted the country to be immediately wiped out from the map under the suspicion of wanting to kill a grand noble.
In this aspect, they gulped down their saliva subconsciously. If the grand noble in front of them said that the food here was poisoned and wanted to destroy the empire, this bar would be the first in history that caused the destruction of an empire!
Suddenly, a youth's voice entered their ears as he assured them, "He doesn't have the right to do it. Although they have special status, they are just like any nobles. There are many strict rules and if grand nobles could wipe out a country from mere words, I doubt the alliance in the World's Empire would remain silent. Furthermore, the story you spoke of is from a baseless rumor, the kingdom simply gets their income cut off."
Turning their heads to the source, they saw a good looking young man with long, braided black hair reaching to his waist and red scarf around his neck.
This young man was of course Xu An.
"How could you prove that?" The bumpkin boy asked curiously and Xu An smiled.
"If that happened, that grand noble shouldn't be here. You see the military old man? He is sent by the World's Empire to keep this grand noble under control. With him on his side, the grand noble has no choice but to use his words and actions properly."
Grand noble has some powers in their words. Not magically but instead because of their status.
Commoners and those ranks beneath a grand noble couldn't retort or refuse his words, they didn't have any choice but to oblige.
"And besides that, as long as this white robe grand noble doesn't do something excessive, something that doesn't cross the line, the military man does not care."
In a sense, the military old man was babysitting this grand noble.
So much of a grand noble that needs someone to babysit them, Xu An sneered inside.
"What's the World's Empire?" The boy asked cluelessly and Xu An replied unhurriedly, "They are an organization that governed and unified the world for over two hundred years and was founded by an alliance of 16 powerful empires. Right now, it spans across more than 20 empires, 240 kingdoms, and around 195 countries."
The youth's mouth widened when he heard that. He was involuntarily shocked and impressed.
"With such a powerful and big organization like that, who dared to oppose them?" The man beside the boy added with pride.
"You didn't know but there are a lot of powers that tried to oppose them," said the man who had told them that story.
"There are? Aren't they afraid of getting punished?" The boy wondered and view those powers as stupid.
"Yes, there are. Such as wanted Explorers, rebellion army, underworld organizations. There are also the attacks of the otherworldly tribe, thankfully, their attack rate is slow and most kingdoms could defend them" replied Xu An.
This world is chaotic as it is but there are some idiots who still plan on rebelling against a powerful organization such as this. I don't know if they are fools who love the thrill of seeking death or not, Xu An thought to himself.
What he meant by chaotic was the war between humanities and the otherworldly tribe still continued. They were ruthless and merciless creatures who seek the thrill of war and blood.
Although the Emperor of Humanity was able to drive them away from human territory, winning many battles against them and chasing them away to the Dark Continent, almost wiping out their existence there, they haven't given up and still try to attack humans.
When Xu An pronounced 'otherwordly tribe', the boy's face turned pale and the two men around him understood that.
"Sigh, a body that weighs ten adults, four arms as tough as steel, two legs as fast as Freetah and could kill Celestial Seventh with ease, such an enemy is terrifying. If not for the fact the Empire of Humanity helped us, I doubt we can live peacefully right now," describe the man beside the bumpkin boy and his body couldn't help but quiver.
However, he was rather grateful to the Emperor of Humanity for making a better life for mankind.
"Freetah?" The boy asked and Xu An replied patiently, "Freetah is a big cat animal with two tails and runs even faster than a cheetah."
At this point, Xu An paused as soon the two men looked at him with an odd look.
Xu An pondered why they shot him with that expression and thought to himself, I forget there is no such thing as a cheetah in this world.
Stared weirdly by the two men, he continued awkwardly, "anyway, they are carnivorous animals that eat humans and herbivore animals.
"When hunters try to hunt this animal for its beautiful skin, they must act carefully, for the fact their nose was abnormally sharp.
"Should one discover you, they would immediately come at you and kill you, their speed was so fast that hunters could only see afterimages and before they know it, they are dead!" Xu An explained in an exaggerated manner and the boy was frightened.
Xu An almost laughed seeing how this boy reacted while the other two men smiled.
"Kid, aren't you being too clueless despite coming from a village?" The man beside the boy suddenly asked and the boy smiled bitterly.
"My family is quite poor. I couldn't buy books about most general knowledge. I'm sorry if I pose so many questions and trouble you all, I'm sorry," he apologized politely and the man felt bad about this.
Hesitated, he said, "I could tell you're a good kid. You remind me of my younger self. How about you come with me and work with me? I'm a merchant."
"Really? Thank you, uncle!" The boy's eyes lit up in excitement. The man laughed seeing this boy's pure reaction.
"What's your name? My name is Harry."
"My name's Huang Yin! Uncle, you're not from the empire?" The boy asked as he quickly noticed the man's name.
"No, I'm a traveling merchant but I get tired of traveling. I decided to live in this place and try my luck selling things from the places I traveled."
Seeing how they reacted, Xu An was happy to see that the empire was peaceful. Perhaps because the capital was away from the battlefield or perhaps the harmony here was different from any other places.
Either way, Xu An was happy to see his starting point was rather good.
But soon, Xu An thought of something and his brows consciously furrowed.
Celestial Seventh are cultivators who could be counted as powerful experts in many kingdoms… In fact, most kingdoms only have one cultivator reaching that stage.
Compared to them, in most empires. The Celestial Seventh are so many that they became common but for those kingdoms, they are quite precious and invaluable.
In this aspect, how do those kingdoms fight against otherworldly tribes and win? One of them is equivalent to Celestial Seventh and with many of them making an army, that's an army of Celestial Seventh!
One must know Celestial Seventh could turn mountains into oblivion, cut the dome of the sky and split the sea. They were living demi-gods! And humanity's mortal enemies were basically them!
Just how did they win? Xu An asked himself and added, probably there's a secret weapon that is specially created to kill them, Xu An speculated.
As Xu An was in the midst of his thoughts, the grand noble who sat in a lofty manner surveyed his surroundings and landed his gaze on a young woman, she was a waitress in this pub and quite the beauty.
Passion to dominate this woman and lust faintly appeared in his eyes but under the sharp gazes of everyone here. They noticed this and couldn't help but feel disgusted, as well as feeling pity towards the young woman.
They wanted to help her but in front of a grand noble, a descendant of a certain heroic figure in the distant past, a person with special status granted by the World's Empire, they couldn't do it.
They could only observe and felt heavy in their hearts.
Even an idiot could tell what was going on! This fellow wanted to mess with this young lady in his bed!
But, because of his status, the grand noble didn't say anything. Should he do so, he could be a laughing stock amongst the crowd!
A grand noble took advantage of his status to defile a commoner. The grand noble didn't dare to act like that so openly.
He couldn't utter something so vulgar so he gave one of his henchmen, which was to the thick bearded man a meaningful glance. The latter pondered shortly and quickly understood.
He pointed at the young woman, "cute lady over there! Come here!"
The young lady had gentle facial features. Her pale lips, her white snow skin, her blue hair in a beautiful bob cut which made her more delicate and beautiful. And adding her stunning body figure, it simply further every man's lust.
The young woman was startled and shot the bearded man a confused look, "me?" She asked doubtfully.
