Chapter 644 Duke?! _1

Ninety-Nine Resurrection Soup was something that only emperors in ancient courts were qualified to enjoy.

It wasn’t that others couldn’t drink it, but rather that the ingredients required to make the Ninety-Nine Resurrection Soup were too numerous.

Just the vast number of various tonics alone were not something that ordinary people of that era could gather.

Not to mention that after refining the essence of those medicinal tonics, one also needed to blend those liquids according to very precise proportions.

With the slightest error, the concoction would not be Ninety-Nine Resurrection Soup.

It was precisely because the preparation of Ninety-Nine Resurrection Soup was so difficult that its medicinal effects were extremely potent.

Even someone who was only hanging on by a breath, as long as they could drink the Ninety-Nine Resurrection Soup, could come back to life full of vigor.

And the most amazing point, the one that solidified the Ninety-Nine Resurrection Soup’s legendary status, was that as long as one drank it, they could extend their life by at least three years!

Yes.

Three years.

To anyone on the brink of death, the prospect of living for an additional three years was enough to drive those people completely insane!

Three years was enough time to do a great many things!

A little later, William was seen supporting Queen Eliza as they walked out from the villa.

Queen Eliza had already heard from William about what had just happened and knew that it was Yin Tian who had saved her life.

Both of them looked at Yin Tian with immense gratitude.

"Mr. Tian."

Queen Eliza gazed at Yin Tian very seriously and said softly, "Are you truly unwilling to come with us to the Great British Empire?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Tian immediately smiled lightly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, but Yin Tian is a Huaxia person, and I still have many things to do; I really can’t follow you."

Queen Eliza nodded her head, not insisting on Yin Tian’s company.

She raised her hand and gestured for Yin Tian to come closer, "Come here."

Yin Tian approached Queen Eliza, clueless as to what she intended.

Queen Eliza then reached out her hand behind her.

Tom immediately stepped forward, respectfully handing a medal to Queen Eliza.

Queen Eliza glanced at the medal and her brow furrowed sharply, "For someone who saved my life, you have given me just this medal?"

Tom’s body shuddered, and he quickly took the medal back, hastening back into the villa.

After a while, Tom returned, holding another medal.

Queen Eliza then nodded her head in satisfaction, and handed the new medal to Yin Tian, "I have nothing else to give you. Money would be too crass and, with your abilities, you are unlikely to be in need of it."

"After some thought, the only thing left that could truly express my gratitude is this."

Yin Tian was briefly taken aback, finding the object in his hand entirely unfamiliar.

Seeing the confusion in Yin Tian’s eyes, William immediately smiled gently, "Tian, this is a dukedom medal; from this day forward, you are an honorary Duke of our Great British Empire."

Duke!

Yin Tian was also stunned on the spot.

A duke’s rank was the highest noble title in the Great British Empire, even granting eligibility to participate in the parliament!

He had genuinely not expected that Queen Eliza and William would be so generous as to bestow upon him the status of a duke!

"Tomorrow evening, I will officially hold a ceremony for your ennoblement," said Queen Eliza, smiling warmly at Yin Tian, "By then, the entire Great British Empire will know that our nation has gained an honorary Duke from a foreign land."

"Isn’t that quite unnecessary..." Yin Tian shook his head, "It’s enough that just a few of us know about it."

Yin Tian had no desire to take part in any so-called ennoblement ceremony.

The dukedom medal, which others might covet, meant next to nothing to Yin Tian.

He was not concerned about status.

Moreover, having been away for so long, he had no idea how things were at Yin Mansion.

"Tian, this is a very serious matter!" William showed an unusually serious expression to Yin Tian, "The Great British Empire currently has only a few dukes, and as you have become a new Duke of our nation, it wouldn’t be right to dismiss it lightly, would it?"

Seeing William’s firm stance, Yin Tian nodded gently, "Okay, I understand. I will definitely be present tomorrow evening."

"Excellent!"

Seeing Yin Tian agree, William once again revealed a brilliant smile.

"Then good, I will release this news immediately, which is also perfect for making the people of the Great British Empire remember you, to prevent them from causing you trouble in the future."

"You don’t know how arrogant those folks can be on a daily basis."

"I’ll trouble you with this," replied Yin Tian, gesturing dismissively, "I won’t be of much help."

"Mm," William nodded repeatedly, "All right, I’ll go and spread the news right now."

Yin Tian nodded and then, taking Murong Liuli’s hand, started to walk away toward the distance.
