Chapter 121 - Follower (1/2)

”Well, no one really knows,” Sixth shook his head.

”The military has tried looking into his background but couldn't find out much. He just appeared here a few years ago with a little bit of money and made an empire with it. He has connections all over the kingdoms and some say even abroad.”

”If you need something done low-key, someone taken care off, need something or someone found, protection etc, he can do it all. There are a few others but he has the best reputation. His word is his bond. There is no one more trustworthy than him.”

”Hmm, so what is he called?”

”Yangdi. We call him Yangdi and he seems to like it so it stuck.”

A few minutes passed and the door finally opened once again.

In walked a man dressed in a traditional Kimono. He looked very delicate and had a pale complexion and was so thin that it looked like a gust of wind was enough to blow him over.

He had long black hair that were coming down to his chest and if not for his Adam's apple and the slight stubble on his face, one could easily mistake him for a girl. He looked to be about 25-27 years of age and completely out of Hao Xuan's expectations.

He thought Yangdi would be a large fat man with gold all over him but this guy was the literal opposite.

”What the hell? He looks like a delicate young master from some rich family. Is it really him?” Hao Xuan looked over at Sixth with a confused and looked and got a nod in return, confirming his identity.

”Young master Jun, it's been a while. How is the old master doing?” Yangdi smiled and asked in a very friendly tone. With a single sentence from him, the entire atmosphere relaxed.

”Woah, what is with this guy? Is that his power or something?” Hao Xuan was on full guard. How could anyone be so charismatic? Even Hao Xuan himself wanted to become friends with this guy.

”Something is definitely not right,” he clenched his fists.

”Father is good. He always tells me to go meet brother Yangdi so I thought why not since an opportunity presented itself today,” Sixth seemed to be used to it and replied casually as well.

”Oh? What opportunity?” Yangdi asked with a surprised expression.

”I wanted to introduce someone. This is my senior, Brother Hao Xuan. He needed help with a few things and I thought you would be the perfect person for the job,” Sixth gestured towards him, prompting Yangdi to also look over with a smile.

”How do you do. Like Jun has said, I'm Hao Xuan,” he smiled in a similar care-free manner and nodded at him.

”Nice to meet you. I'm called Yangdi. I feel like I have seen brother Hao before, did we meet somewhere?”

”I would remember if I ever saw brother Yangdi before. I don't think we have had the pleasure. Maybe I just have one of those faces?” Hao Xuan laughed while Yangdi just looked at him with a smile, making him uncomfortable.

”So how can I help brother Hao today?” Yangdi asked while staring straight into Hao Xuan's eyes. He felt like he was naked in front of this guy.
