Lex was struggling to come to terms with the fact that he was having tea with a Dao being. This was such an abrupt thing, with no forewarning at all whatsoever. Not only that, the Dao being had even offered to train him, which was extremely flattering as well as an enticing offer.
But whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, the conditions that came with that offer were too strict. Being restricted to the Origin realm for a few billion years did not exactly sound like a prison sentence, but Lex did not want to give up on the Midnight System.
He had a feeling that between the two, the system was the more precious opportunity, especially his.
To top it all off, he was inside the Dao beings Holy Kingdom, which had a spiritual field that came from the Dao being herself. This reminded Lex of the Mirage that he entered back when he faced Sekhmet.
