"Director Shen, please honor us with your presence; don't keep Marquis Yun waiting!"
When Jia Ren didn't respond, the Steward hurriedly called out a second time, his tone filled with urgency.
Jia Ren didn't know who Marquis Yun was and didn't want to recklessly step into the unknown.
What if it's a trap?
He just accepted their favors; to turn them down right away would indeed be quite rude.
Seeing Jia Ren still hesitating, the Steward transmitted a message secretly, "Isn't Director Shen looking for Tongtian-level warding materials? Marquis Yun happens to have a few in his collection. Not just anyone is qualified to trade with Marquis Yun. If Director Shen wishes to obtain Tongtian-level warding materials, you must offer treasures of matching stature."
So, he came for the Heavenly Spirit Material, Jia Ren realized.
Smiling, Jia Ren declined, "I have nothing of value, nothing that would interest the Marquis. Let's discuss this another day."
