The cloaked elder heard this, his gaze intently fixed on Xiao Ye, then suddenly he threw his head back and laughed loudly, the sound of his laughter always tinged with a hint of desolation, which evoked a sense of sorrow in Xiao Ye's heart.
"You, young fellow, are quite clever, and you also maintain a cool composure. It seems that this old man did not misjudge you." The laughter of the cloaked elder ceased, and his eyes were blazing as he looked at Xiao Ye, feeling somewhat helpless deep inside.
If Xiao Ye had actively asked to enter these four palaces, then it would have been natural for him to state his demands.
But Xiao Ye remained remarkably calm and unswayed, taking control of the initiative, forcing him to be the one to make a move instead.
So now, it appeared as though he was pleading for Xiao Ye to enter, which meant the terms he could propose were naturally not too demanding.
