Seeing King Star remain silent for so long, Amphorae decided to press. "In truth, I believe it would be to the benefit of everyone here if the Sacharros participated. After all, my husband is a Planet Lord and his master is a Star Lord… I don't believe the Star Clan is capable of competing with such resources…"
The hearts of the Heads seized. Shockingly enough, this was especially so for those who stood at the helm of the 9 top quadrant powers.
When you rose to the top of the cultivation world, only then did you truly understand how difficult it was to take even a single step forward. A Moon Lord was shocking enough, but a Planet Lord and a Star Lord?! They felt their hearts beating uncontrollably.
However, Amphorae didn't seem to be finished.
"… Not only do we have such caliber of alchemist, we also have comparable formation masters, weapon's masters, and runic vein masters…"
Amphorae lay these truths out calmly. In at most another few decades, Dyon's master and the Demon Sage would both finish forming their bodies, giving the Sacharro Clan two Star Lords, one of Array Alchemy and another of Runic Veins.
King Star knew there wasn't much he could do internally. The resources of the Star Clan were enticing, but the thought of Star Lords and Planet Lords overshadowed this greatly.
"When you ask me if there's a problem… Isn't it obvious?" King Star replied calmly. "Unlike those already here, the Sacharro Clan has the most question marks, we're not even certain that you come from the Celestial Universe as you claim.
"I'm sure that none of you have forgotten." King Star continued, taking his gaze from Amphorae and looking through the crowd. "It was revealed just two years ago now that Dyon Sacharro is the husband of Alexandria Snow, Madeleine Sacharro and Clara Gallagher.
"What do these three women have in common? Each of them was placed in a position of power. Two of them became Legatees or were in position to become Legatees of two top 9 quadrant Sects, while the last became an outstanding figure within the 10th ranked quadrant.
"These details were only revealed under odd circumstances after Comet Lord Gallagher had a falling out with the Sapientia. In addition, there are reports of a battle that occurred within the Water Mist Sect around that same time. To top this off, a war that shook the Middle Tier involved the Flaming Lily Sect as well.
"If these matters weren't enough to question the motive of this mysterious Sacharro Clan, please do remember that somehow, Dyon Sacharro exited his Corner without the fog barrier disappearing. Not only did he wear a mask to hide that fact, but it was revealed later that his Sacharro Clan seemingly has a great relationship with the Epistemic Tower's spirit."
King Star's gaze turned back to Amphorae. "Are these matters not enough for my Star Clan to be apprehensive about your Sacharro Clan?
"What are your motives? What reason did you have to secretly spread members of your Sacharro Clan about? How can we trust a Clan we know next to nothing about?"
The murmuring of the crowd grew silent. They didn't dare to ask these questions of the Sacharros themselves, but now that King Star had done it for them… They were truly curious.
No one could have imagined Amphorae's answer.
"These events? I don't see anything wrong with them." Amphorae seemed calm, as if it was only natural.
King Star frowned. "Do you take us for fools?"
"It's easy to take simple matters and spin them as you choose to make us appear to be at fault, especially when you have hidden motives. Explaining these matters is uncomplicated. My husband is the Successor of the Celestial Deer Sect. Aren't his actions of caution obvious to anyone who understands what this means?"
Those below were stunned. Celestial Deer Sect? Can you really so blatantly admit such a thing?
There wasn't a single soul here who didn't understand the ramifications of such a title. Not only was it shocking, it explained everything so simply that King Star almost blushed in shame.
"As for how my husband exited Celestial Corner without the barrier fading, isn't that even more obvious? He simply passed off his Key Wielding responsibilities to someone else. Since that someone else hadn't completed their trials yet, it's obvious that the barrier would stay up."
Hearing this, King Star's ability to maintain a neutral faltered. She really was making his questions seem silly.
"Finally, what do you mean, close relationship? Is it anything odd for a Higher Existence who's touched the highest floor of the Epistemic Tower to be familiar with its tower spirit? Your concerns are laughable, but I do have some concerns of my own that I'd very much like to get off my chest."
Without waiting for King Star to respond, Amphorae continued.
"The sudden appearance of your Star Clan has always filled me with questions. Many here might not know, but the Sacharro Clan is well aware that there are 5 centers of power outside of the tower quadrants. The Devil Quadrants, the Nephilim, the Sapientia, the Transcendent Beast Alliance and… The Sprite Alliance."
King Star's face darkened as those ignorant many were shocked by this news.
"Thousands of years ago, your Clan suddenly appeared and conquered a quadrant of ours more swiftly than any of us could react. You used the guise of ignorance in order to justify your actions, claiming you believed to have found new territory and thought to make it your own.
"This seems fine on the surface. After all, since you weren't part of the tower quadrants, how could you know about its system and its rules. From then on, the Star Clan became a new member of our cluster and after consolidating your gains and become a Second Grade Comet Clan, you also became the perennial first place quadrant.
"Well… Everything would be fine if you weren't once part of the Sprite Alliance."
