The world fell into silence after Heavenly Senior had invited the Opposer.

Gravis and the Black Magnate felt a bit uncomfortable. Sure, Heavenly Senior appeared like a nice guy, but he felt incredibly incompatible with the Opposer.

The others were nervous. The Opposer had always been incredibly mysterious and intimidating. Just his presence alone pushed everyone away. His aura told everyone that they should keep away from him.

It was similar to when someone saw a stranger walking down the street with an enraged expression.

One immediately realized that this person was not interested in conversation right now.

It was better to just let them be.

When the Opposer had said no, the others still didn't move, but they were relieved to some degree. After all, the Opposer hadn't killed Heavenly Senior for talking to him.

Gravis had already expected that the Opposer would say no. Being friends with the Black Magnate was one thing but being friends with Heavenly Senior was something entirely different.

The Black Magnate didn't talk with very many people, and he only joked with the ones he knew. In front of everyone else, he was similar to the Opposer. He just wasn't interested.

On top of that, the only goal the Black Magnate had had while contacting the Opposer had been to gain a new friend.

He hadn't been interested in the status of being his friend.

He hadn't been interested in the Opposer's power.

He had only wanted to find some company.

As for Heavenly Senior?

Gravis was not so sure.

Heaven's Magnates were beyond normal Cultivators, and Gravis couldn't even see part of their Law fragments, which meant that Gravis could only make a rough guess.

What was Gravis' guess?

Gravis guessed that Heavenly Senior was interested in being friends with basically everyone. That in and of itself wasn't a bad thing.

However, problems could appear when one looked at why Heavenly Senior wanted to be friends with everyone.

Gravis guessed that Heavenly Senior probably liked being in the center of attention.

Now, if he could get the Opposer to be his friend, wouldn't that be a great feeling?

He would have been the one that managed to coerce the Opposer out of his castle. On top of that, Heavenly Senior would have one of the two most powerful beings as a friend.

In a sense, being his friend was not a loss. After all, the feeling of friendship was genuine. Yet, the underlying reason for that desire could sour the relationship a bit. Most people probably wouldn't care, but some people definitely cared.

Gravis guessed that, in the Opposer's mind, such a mindset was akin to weakness. One could even call this mindset a kind of dependability.
