Lex felt a strange tingle in the back of his head, but he refused to acknowledge it. He did not believe in flags. Just because he was, somehow, visited by one particular Dao Lord did not mean more would be able to sneak in.
It was possible that the same Dao Lord was still around - he had no way of knowing. All he could do was hope not, and continue working. But still, he did not believe in flags.
Yes, even though he was more knowledgeable now, and he knew that all actions and thoughts had karma, and karmic resonance was often the reason behind what so many people called coincidence - or raising flags - he still didn't believe in it. He refused on principle.
One of these days, he would say something like that, and there would be no real consequence, thereby proving he was right all along!
