The elderly man looked at Hou Meng.
At his age, the elderly man had experienced almost everything that life had to offer.
After such a long life, the elderly man now prioritized peace and stability.
Although he never left his tent, he often sent his retainer out to gather information.
When the two retainers outside the tent received any information, they would report it to the elderly man instantly.
Thus, the elderly man knew what Hou Meng's aim was for being the first to speak out.
Hou Meng's expression immediately changed to panic when he caught sight of the elderly man's look. However, he quickly composed himself.
Nonetheless, his expression was now more pleasant and humble than it had been before.
