Imex's last statement caused quite a stir, as many of the sponsorees began to murmur amongst themselves. Most of them sounded offended that Imex even thought that they would need such protection, which let Lex know that these were exactly the kind of people this warning had been for.
Every single being here came from a powerful background, most likely near or at the Dao level. Despite how rare Dao Lords were, when considered on a universal scale, it made sense that there would be a lot of them. As such, there were naturally a lot of Dao level organizations.
Lex was not surprised at all that anyone from such a prestigious background would be prideful, but in his opinion that was false pride. What was the point of that pride when it relied entirely on someone else?
