Loki also considered the possibility that he was being overly paranoid and that there was nothing to be worried about. But even if he was overthinking it, the reward was simply not worth the risk.
He didn't want to risk his avatar and his sect just to make Tepid Scholar lose 9.8 billion square kilometers in Domain Power. If he lost his avatar, he would lose his only pathway and 40.5 billion square kilometers worth of Domain Power.
Most importantly, he didn't need the Will's help in becoming a Mountain Lord. He was already a Mountain Lord and couldn't control two Divine Mountains.
So, he made up his mind to advance to two-star celestial, gain two avatars, and double his Domain Power before taking a plunge into what was clearly deep waters.
After making up his mind, he returned to his work. He had a lot of work to do, so he had even more reasons not to go about looking for trouble.
