Patriarch Ye sent another message to the junior who had just communicated with him, asking:
"Did your son go to any Immortal Sect to gain experience?"
General Ye had just sent the information and, upon receiving Patriarch Ye's question, replied:
"My grandson's son, named Ye Tian, had the thought of venturing out five years ago. He concealed his cultivation and studied his forging techniques at the North City Immortal Sect. It's only in these past one or two months that he returned. This time leaving on a distant journey, he carried with him a task assigned by the king."
As for what the task was, General Ye did not elaborate clearly, just finishing the entire story in a sentence or two. He believed that since Patriarch Ye asked, he must have his own judgment.
"Oh, no wonder..."
Patriarch Ye did not clearly explain to the communicating junior—how many generations below him—what the matter was, hence leaving the other party utterly baffled.
