Before making his move, Heaven-Opening Demon Venerable still wanted to make one final inquiry.
"What you seek is no more than the Heavenly Demon Pearl. If I give you the Heavenly Demon Pearl as a gift to seal an alliance between us, what do you say?" Never in his life had Heaven-Opening Demon Venerable offered anyone terms this generous. This young man before him had truly stirred his appreciation for talent, and this was also his final test.
