There were only two possible reasons for this.
One, David was not in the sect. Two, David had a special skill or treasure that allowed him to conceal his presence.
Blue hoped it was the latter, or his travel here would have been for naught.
If not even Sid was aware of Davidâs whereabouts, no one else would, and without David, Blue could not answer to the head of his family.
It had never crossed his mind to lie, nor would Blue ever do such a thing for should he be exposed, he would suffer a consequence so severe that not even being a deity would protect him.
âSid, Iâm asking you one more time. Is David here, or not? Do not think about lying to me, I will make you regret it if you try,â Blue said solemnly.
âIâm not sure, but I know Mr. David wouldnât lie to me,â Sid replied.
âThen explain why I do not sense his presence at all. A mere partial deity cannot possibly evade my detection so simply.â
âBut itâs still possible. I believe you will understand what makes him special very soon.â
âYou are confident in him, hmm? You cannot possibly think that he can protect you lot, can you?â
âThe universe is too big for even a level 9 civilization to know everything that happens within it. We are no strangers to miracles, it is a battle of luck.â
âArenât you in a good mood, Sid, but to still be so naive at such an age⦠Has your mind deteriorated?
Even if a partial deity was blessed to encounter a heavenly opportunity, he is nothing compared to what I can do. At most, he is a slight hindrance. Or do you truly believe he can defy God?â
The disciples and Nova around them had a bad feeling when they heard this conversation, for it seemed like Lord Sid was afraid of this middle-aged man.
âWho was he and how dare he spoke to Lord Sid like that?
âAnd from their conversation, it seems like theyâre looking for David?
âBut heâs completely undermined Mr. David!â
Filled with confusion, Nova could not help but ask, âLord Sid H Only to receive the manâs gaze and a shake of his head, signaling her to stay quiet the moment she called for him.
Nova immediately shut her mouth and stopped talking.
She was an intelligent woman and knew that Sid must have stopped her from talking for a reason.
Coupled with what she gathered from the conversation just now and how the other Sacred Saints looked afraid but seemed to obey this middle-aged man as their master, Nova understood that this man was not one she could afford to irate.
âYou are the owner here?â Blue asked âI am Iridescent Sectâs sect leader. How could I help you, My Lord?â Nova asked cautiously.
With Sidâs cue, she ensured she was as respectful as she could be.
âSect leader? So, you call the shots?â Blue turned to Nova.
âYes, My Lord.â
âYou are aware of David, correct?â
âOf course, Mr. David is Star Kingdomâs savior.â
âGood. Sid says that David is in seclusion here. As sect leader, you must be aware, correct? Call him out and I will leave you all alone, or else⦠I will flatten this land you stand upon and destroy this continent!â
