Yamato looked at Lex, then at Paul, and then back at Lex. There was much left unsaid, but his gaze made his thoughts quite apparent. Was he supposed to believe that Mei was dating this mortal? If the Midnight Inn wanted an excuse to take her, they could at least put in some effort to make it believable.
The reason Yamato thought like this was because of his limited exposure. At each level, cultivators would adopt a different perspective based on the knowledge that was available to them. As a Celestial Immortal, residing inside the Origin realm, he placed tremendous value upon the cultivation technique Mei used, for if she could control the World Tree, there were tremendous benefits she could gain.
In fact, one of the reasons that the Henali had provided Mei with so much protection was due to this very ability. So it was easily understandable that the Midnight Inn would covet such a person as well.
