Thanks to the fortuitous creation of the ancient bodhi tree, the Starfall Pavilion's strength also received a significant boost.
Possessing five or six Dou Saints, this strength, when viewed across the entire Central Plains, could only be rivaled by those ancient clans.
Many factions even began to curry favor with the Starfall Pavilion to avoid being targeted.
Xiao Li has now basically officially joined the Starfall Pavilion.
However, he rarely interferes with the affairs of the Starfall Pavilion.
He only does his own things and will not actively participate in the management of the Starfall Pavilion.
"Scale, let's go to the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan," Xiao Li said.
Medusa, who was playing with the child, turned her head in surprise upon hearing this.
"The Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan? What are we going there for?"
Medusa had no good feelings towards the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan.
After all, there had been no small conflict back then.
Moreover, the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan and the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python are inherently antagonistic, and Medusa disliked them from her bloodline.
"The Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's sacred land—the Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs—can allow you to evolve into a Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, elevating your strength to a higher level," Xiao Li explained the reason.
He also had no good feelings towards the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan.
However, their sacred land is currently the only known place where the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python can evolve.
No other place would work.
Although Medusa is already a Dou Saint, evolving into a Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python would still be very helpful to her.
"A Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python?"
This reason alone was enough to move Medusa.
"Alright, then let's go. Should we bring more people? After all, our relationship with the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan isn't good."
Xiao Li shook his head: "No need, the two of us are enough."
"Alright."
This was absolute trust in Xiao Li; if he said there was no need to bring more people, then there was no need.
Soon, the two left the Starfall Pavilion and quickly flew towards the Beast Domain… The Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's territory is vast.
To be precise, the territory governed by their subordinate forces is vast.
Two-thirds of the entire Beast Domain belongs to the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan or their subordinate forces.
Many places, although not directly under the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's jurisdiction, are still related to them.
Anyone wanting to cause trouble in the Beast Domain would more or less have to consider the influence of the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan.
Xiao Li and Medusa headed straight for the entrance to the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's sacred land.
Along the way, they encountered many subordinate forces of the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan.
Of course, it was impossible for them to discover Xiao Li and Medusa.
Finally, the two arrived at the entrance to the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's underground world.
However, the entrance was crowded with people.
All of them were from the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan!
Moreover, the strength of these individuals was not weak, and the aura of the leading man was even stronger than Medusa's by a few points.
"Our objective was discovered?" Medusa was surprised.
Among the entire Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan, the only one whose cultivation was stronger than hers should be the Clan Leader of the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan.
"No, I told them in advance that we were coming," Xiao Li said.
"You informed them?"
Medusa was momentarily unable to understand Xiao Li's actions.
Actively informing the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan, wasn't this asking for trouble?
"It's time to resolve the troubles between us and the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan. I don't like knowing that someone has a grudge against us and then letting them go unchecked," Xiao Li said calmly.
Although the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan was not worth him making a big fuss, things that needed to be resolved still had to be resolved.
As for the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's attitude, that would depend on what they did next.
Soon, Xiao Li and Medusa arrived before the underground entrance.
Looking at the dozen or so experts of the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan below.
"Presumably, you are the current Clan Leader of the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan, Demon Roar Sky?"
Xiao Li looked at a man in the middle of the crowd.
"I have long heard of Young Master Xiao's great name, and seeing him today, he is indeed a favored son of heaven," Demon Roar Sky slightly cupped his hands in a bow.
From his attitude, Demon Roar Sky was quite polite.
This, instead, surprised Xiao Li and Medusa.
It seemed that a fight might not break out today?
"I wonder, Clan Leader Yao, bringing so many experts to wait for us here, is it to resolve the grievances between us?" Xiao Li got straight to the point, speaking frankly.
If they were going to fight, then they should do it early.
But Demon Roar Sky shook his head and said, "Young Master Xiao, you are mistaken."
"We all knew about my unworthy son's matter back then. It was he who offended Young Master Xiao and sought his own death, so no one else is to blame."
"Now that Young Master Xiao and the Starfall Pavilion are growing stronger by the day, our Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan also wishes to foster a good relationship with Young Master Xiao."
"Regarding past grievances, I hope Young Master Xiao can overlook them and let bygones be bygones," Demon Roar Sky said.
"Oh? Clan Leader Yao is so magnanimous?"
Xiao Li was somewhat surprised; how could Demon Roar Sky's attitude be so good?
"Clan Leader Yao's meaning is that even though I killed your Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's Young Clan Leader, you can still let bygones be bygones?"
"Yes, and Young Master Xiao can now take your wife into the Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs," Demon Roar Sky cupped his hands, bowing his head slightly, and said politely.
Xiao Li chuckled.
The Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's attitude was surprisingly humble, which was truly unexpected.
"Alright then, I'd like to see if Clan Leader Yao is truly that sincere."
Although he didn't know what Demon Roar Sky was playing at, Xiao Li was willing to play along.
After all, not fighting was definitely better.
Demon Roar Sky immediately led the way, personally guiding Xiao Li and Medusa into the underground world.
The others also followed alongside, escorting them.
There were many people in the underground world, and seeing Demon Roar Sky and many strong members of the clan personally leading people in, they were all very surprised, speculating about the identities of Xiao Li and Medusa.
Soon, the group arrived at the core of the underground world, the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan's sacred land—the Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs!
Beneath the colossal chasm was a massive lake, its dark yellow water carrying traces of blood-like aura, flowing upstream and soaring towards the sky.
"This is the Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs?"
Looking at the lake before her, Medusa couldn't help but murmur softly.
She could feel the terrifying chill contained within the Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs.
But this did not make her uncomfortable; instead, there was a peculiar attraction, wanting her to enter.
"Sirs, this is the Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs."
"Whatever Young Master Xiao wishes to do with this Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs next, please do so. We will all cooperate," Demon Roar Sky said from the side.
His humble posture was utterly unlike that of the dignified Clan Leader of the Nine Netherworld Nether Python Clan.
Xiao Li, however, swept the Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs with his soul power, confirming that there were no traps below, before allowing Medusa to descend.
"Scale, you can go down now."
"Okay."
Medusa nodded lightly, her delicate body leaped, and she plunged into the icy Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs…
