"You certainly speak frankly."
Smiling as he wiped the corner of his mouth, Song Tingye set down his teacup. His gaze was deep. "It's just that this price—might it be a bit too high?"
It seems my guess was correct. The secrets of the Initiate Realm are like the patent blockades of a previous life. Only the large sects, wealthy clans, and noble families have mastery over them. Regarding this secret, they all tacitly maintain a strict silence, an unspoken rule of keeping it confidential and unpublicized. Are they afraid that too many Initiates would impact their own ruling power?
Noticing Song Tingye's intense reaction to his demands, combined with Yuan Baiyi's explicit statement that it was impossible to trade the secret of the Ancient Gathering of Celestial Strength, a clear understanding gradually formed in Qi Xiu's mind.
"Then, what price can you offer?"
