“Here, you can tell me now!”

Ye Lang wanted for the old man to finish his meal to start the conversation.

“Young master Ye, my surname is Ye too! I’m Ye Sheng, I’m a noble in the Ai La Empire despite my current state. I’m a baron, a knight! so if you help me complete my wish I’ll pass my title to you!” said the old man.

“Baron? Knight? I don’t care,” said Ye Lang bluntly.

From Ye Lang’s words, the old man could tell that Ye Lang was someone with a higher status than him.

“Young master Ye, the title can be accumulated so if you receive an extra one, it’ll add to your original one. This can help you,” said Ye Sheng.

“I’m not from Ai La, I’m not interested in that. Just tell me what you want.” Ye Lang directly rejected Ye Sheng’s offer for his knighthood.

“It’s very simple. Pass this half of this jade pendant to Migen of Ha De House in Ai La City. Tell him I told you to return it to him,” said Ye Sheng.

“Ugh! Just pass it to some mercenary to do something so simple, I’ll give you the money!” said Ye Lang,

Ye Lang didn’t have the time to go to Ai La City just to pass half a jade pendant. He wouldn’t be able to make it in time to Vermilion Bird Empire if he did.

A mercenary would be able to do such an easy task or any task that was a hundred times harder than this!

“No, this jade pendant can’t be carried by just anybody. We made a deal to not let outsiders touch this,” said Ye Sheng as he shook his head.

“Aren’t I also an outsider? Go find another person, don’t bother me, I have things to do,” said Ye Lang.

Ye Sheng looked at Ye Lang and said, “Ah! This was supposed to be done by my grandson but all my grandchildren are gone so I can only beg you to go. Please, this will benefit you.”

“Did you know, Migen is the head of the Hade Household and that family is one of the most powerful families in Ai La. I used to have the same status as Migen but he had his talent and his few excellent sons and a hundred-year-old business…”

“But I only had some unworthy descendants that led the family to failure. Look at my current state!!”

“You said I’ll die in three days. Death is a good thing for me but just before I die, I hope you can represent my family to the Ha De House and fulfil my deal with Migen!!”

“...” Ye Lang didn’t say anything as if he wasn’t even listening to Ye Sheng.
