"Well, do you expect the prince to come by himself?" Alex replied with a smile. "Don't think you're the only one he cooperates with, Kael."
Kael's gaze turned cold for a moment, then returned to normal.
"I see," Kael said. "Let's get back to the topic. How does the prince plan to back me? I need more votes."
Kael could feel it. Sending Alex was a warning from Saryx.
If he didn't show his value, or if he failed, he would be thrown away. Saryx had other people he could support.
Kael had checked Alex and Mingyue's backgrounds when creating their IDs. The result baffled him.
It wasn't that he couldn't track them. Their backgrounds were solid, yet mysterious at the same time.
They had records of growing up on a rural planet with a cultivation culture, then suddenly disappearing for many years before appearing here.
That alone wasn't strange. Cultivators vanished all the time to train.
