Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

Chapter 397: A Visit Before Departure

Su Ming’s tone was calm, as if he were talking about something utterly trivial.

The steward was frozen in place.

His mouth hung slightly open, his eyes wide as saucers.

“S-Su... True Disciple Su, what did you say?” the steward stammered.

He could hardly believe his ears.

“I said, I’ll take this mission,” Su Ming repeated.

The shock on the steward’s face instantly transformed into ecstasy.

He rubbed his hands together vigorously, nearly laughing out loud.

“You... you mean it?”

Su Ming stood up.“I come from Great Xing. I’m familiar with the local customs and people.”

“Besides, there are some old personal matters from the past that I should settle along the way.”

The steward nodded repeatedly, his face flushed with excitement.

“Excellent! Excellent! True Disciple Su is truly righteous!”

He hurried over to his desk, took out a blank jade slip.

“I’ll register it for you right now! I’ll handle all the procedures, won’t waste a single moment of your time!”

The steward infused his spiritual energy into the jade slip, quickly carving the mission information into it.

He held the jade slip in both hands and respectfully handed it to Su Ming.

“True Disciple Su, this is the Mediator’s credential. With this jade slip, you can mobilize the sect’s sleeper agents within Great Xing’s borders.”

As he handed over the jade slip, the steward seemed to remember something and added,

“Oh, right. I heard that for safety’s sake, the sect will have a Golden Core elder backing you up this time. As for which elder specifically, the Administration Hall hasn’t received definite word yet, but it should be decided within the next day or two.”

Su Ming’s hand, reaching for the jade slip, paused slightly.

A Golden Core elder backing him up?

This information came somewhat unexpectedly. He had originally assumed he would be going down the mountain alone, never expecting the sect to make such an arrangement.
