Liora's words were shocking.
Although the fact that the other party had not stepped out of this golden prison to fight against them showcased that he had to adhere to certain limitations, this didn't necessarily mean that he was truly weak.
There were also other explanations for this.
For example, there might be something rendering him unable to leave the golden prison.
Another example would be that he had other plans for them and simply let them escape.
Either way, facing this mysterious man, whose recovery process appeared far better than Elaouthr's, it made sense that they should be apprehensive and cautious.
It was exactly because of this that both Elaouthr and Alpha were stunned by Liora's words.
Wasn't she simply trying to offend the man?
While preparing themselves for a potential fight, with the former digesting the power he had just obtained and the latter calling upon her Mechanical Army, they waited to see how the cultivator would respond.
Yet... nothing.
