As Mo Yu returned from Yun Lan Mountain to the Imperial Capital, the name "Yan Alliance" could be heard everywhere along the way.
This news made Mo Yu pause for a moment before he nodded in realization.
Since the destruction of the Yun Lan Sect, the Jia Ma Empire had fallen into a state of power vacuum. Mo Yu didn't want Yuan Manor to take root in the Northwestern Continent, so it was only natural that Xiao Yan took over.
The establishment of the Yan Alliance caused an immediate and huge stir within the Jia Ma Empire. Countless people were astonished at this alliance, which had gathered so many powerful figures.
The three Great Clans of the empire, along with the Alchemist Association—this lineup could almost rival the former Yun Lan Sect. No one had expected that Xiao Yan could accomplish what Yun Lan Sect had never managed, quietly and efficiently.
Many people had a vague sense that in the future, the Jia Ma Empire would likely be ruled by this "Yan Alliance."
The Yun Lan Sect had truly been replaced.
Mo Yu, of course, was pleased to see this outcome. After all, he was also a member of the Xiao Clan. With the existence of the Yan Alliance, the Xiao Clan's security would rise significantly.
At the Imperial Capital, Xiao Manor.
Although Mo Yu's return was quiet, it still attracted a lot of attention. After all, the popularity of the Xiao brothers in the Jia Ma Empire was no less than that of the top stars in Mo Yu's past life.
"Brother Mo, you're back after finishing your business?"
After Hai Bodong and Jia Xingtian finished discussing the details of forming the Yan Alliance with Xiao Yan, they looked at the returning Mo Yu, stunned for a moment, before smiling lightly.
In the next moment, Hai Bodong narrowed his eyes slightly. For some reason, after not seeing him for just a month, he felt that Mo Yu's aura had become much stronger.
He shook his head, marveling at Mo Yu's genius. He thought back to the newly formed Yan Alliance and, if anything, they were more inclined to cooperate with Mo Yu's Yuan Manor. After all, Yuan Manor's strength was well-known, and working under its shadow would be quite advantageous.
However, Mo Yu clearly had no intention of staying here. Furthermore, Xiao Yan's strength and character were also commendable, so they quickly agreed. In just a month, the Yan Alliance was successfully formed.
"Yes, congratulations to all of you. Under the leadership of Xiao Yan, the Yan Alliance's strength will continue to grow stronger in the future," Mo Yu replied, nodding with a smile.
At this time, the three Xiao brothers also came out. Hearing Mo Yu's words, Xiao Yan smiled and said, "The creation of the Yan Alliance owes a lot to Brother Mo Yu's full support."
"Hehe, it's no big deal, just a little resource here and there," Mo Yu waved his hand and then turned to Xiao Li, asking, "Brother Xiao Li, do you plan to stay in Yuan Manor or develop in the Yan Alliance?"
Hearing this, Xiao Li grinned and said, "I'll stay in Yuan Manor. Compared to the Jia Ma Empire, the Black-Corner Region is more suited to me."
Upon hearing Xiao Li's response, Xiao Yan and Xiao Ding smiled lightly, clearly having already expected this answer.
Though the brothers were united, their bond with Mo Yu was that of family.
"Mo Yu, come with me," a cold, enchanting voice suddenly rang out.
Upon hearing the voice, everyone froze, slowly turning around to see Medusa leaning lazily against the stone railing outside the meeting hall. Her mesmerizing eyes subtly swept over the crowd.
Seeing this, Hai Bodong and Jia Xingtian quietly moved away, and Xiao Yan and the others looked at Mo Yu in surprise.
"Cough, I'll handle this," Mo Yu said with a dry cough and then walked toward Medusa.
"Is something the matter? You're looking for me?" Mo Yu asked with a light laugh.
"It's not me, it's the elders from my clan who are looking for you," Cai Lin, with her delicate and seductive face, spoke softly, her expression revealing a hint of complexity.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yu paused, then his gaze turned strange as he looked at Cai Lin's sensual belly. While rubbing his chin, he muttered, "The elders of the Snake-People Tribe are looking for me... Could it be... you're...?"
Cai Lin froze, her stunning face showing confusion. Then, noticing the look in Mo Yu's eyes, she seemed to understand something. She gritted her teeth slightly and, with a playful pout, scolded, "What are you thinking? I didn't say I wanted it!"
With that, Cai Lin snorted and turned around, gradually disappearing from view.
Seeing Medusa seemingly angry, Hai Bodong and the others shivered and then sympathetically looked at Mo Yu.
Provoking this fierce and fiery woman... He really has it coming.
Xiao Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, thinking to himself that his Xun'er was much more obedient, unlike Medusa, who always took out her anger on Mo Yu.
On the other side, Mo Yu, after hearing Cai Lin's words, finally relaxed. He had been worried that Cai Lin might have accidentally gotten pregnant because of their previous incident.
Although Mo Yu didn't particularly care about leaving his bloodline behind, he felt that the time wasn't right.
Shaking his head, he looked at Cai Lin's disappearing figure and, after bidding farewell to Xiao Yan and the others, hurriedly caught up with her.
Although the matter with Cai Lin was a misunderstanding and out of his control, it was true that he had taken advantage of her body. Now, going to meet the elders of her clan felt a bit like meeting the family members of his... misstep.
After walking through several broad streets for about ten minutes, they turned into a slightly darker area.
This was located in the corner of the city wall, where the towering walls cast shadows, dimming the area's light. Many powerful Snake-People Tribe warriors resided here.
Due to Cai Lin's breakthrough to the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, the Snake-People Tribe clearly didn't want to stay in the harsh environment of the Tagore Desert any longer.
One of their main purposes for coming to the Imperial Capital this time was likely to discuss the future living arrangements for the Snake-People Tribe.
However, most of the Snake-People still resisted living with humans, so merging their societies would require a long time to gradually adjust.
This Snake-People Tribe district had very tight defenses, with armed snake-people warriors patrolling back and forth. When they saw Cai Lin's figure, these guards immediately lowered their heads and showed reverent gestures, prostrating before her.
As they passed through, after a while, they stopped in front of a large courtyard. Cai Lin waved her hand, and the gates of the courtyard opened on their own. They entered, with Mo Yu closely following.
As soon as Mo Yu stepped into the courtyard, a massive shadow accompanied by a fierce wind suddenly slammed toward him!
Sensing the sudden attack, Mo Yu's expression remained unchanged.
With a cold grunt, his fist clenched, and without using any Dou Qi, he directly unleashed his physical strength, mercilessly striking the attacker.
"Boom!"
A low, thunderous explosion rang out in the courtyard, sending dust and debris flying.
With a single blow, Mo Yu's figure didn't even budge, but the attacker, however, spun through the air and crashed heavily to the ground.
Mo Yu slowly lifted his head, his eyes calmly scanning the person who had attacked him.
In front of him stood a large, muscular male Snake-people warrior, his face fierce, with two black python tattoos on his arms.
The latter was now staring at Mo Yu with shock. He had clearly not sensed any fluctuation of Dou Qi.
In other words, this seemingly delicate young human had easily defeated him with nothing but physical strength!
"Who are you?" Mo Yu asked indifferently, his gaze falling on the Peak Dou Wang Serpent warrior.
The male serpent-man, introducing himself as "Mo Ba Si, Commander of the Snake-People Tribe," locked his gaze on Mo Yu. His expression was a mix of hostility and reverence as he said in a deep voice, "The strength of Lord Mo Yu truly lives up to its reputation!"
After speaking, Mo Ba Si bowed respectfully to Cai Lin before stepping back.
Seeing this, a thoughtful gleam flashed in Cai Lin's eyes. Her captivating gaze swept over Mo Yu before she leaned close, her fragrant breath brushing his ear as she whispered, "It seems your strength has grown again during this time. Not bad—you haven't disgraced this queen."
Having said this, Medusa resumed her proud and aloof demeanor, addressing Mo Yu coolly: "Follow me."
She turned and walked toward the courtyard's inner depths without waiting for a reply.
Watching her leave, Mo Yu silently chuckled at her playfulness. He followed her through the piercing gazes of others around them, their expressions filled with curiosity and scrutiny.
As Medusa and Mo Yu disappeared into the inner courtyard, a buzz of conversation erupted in their wake.
After all, Mo Ba Si was one of the strongest warriors among the Snake-People Tribe, yet he couldn't withstand even one move from Mo Yu. Their queen had indeed chosen an exceptional human consort.
Following Cai Lin through several tranquil paths, the two eventually arrived at a secluded bamboo house hidden amidst a grove.
Stopping before the bamboo house, a solemn expression briefly appeared on Medusa's face. She lightly knocked on the door.
"Enter," came an aged voice from within.
As the door opened, Cai Lin glanced back at Mo Yu before stepping inside.
Standing outside, Mo Yu could faintly sense four obscure auras within the bamboo house. Although not as powerful as Cai Lin, these auras were formidable and slightly stronger than Jia Xingtian and Hai Bodong. They were at the peak of the Dou Huang level but had yet to break through to Dou Zong.
After assessing the strength of the Snake-People Tribe's high-ranking members, Mo Yu moved and stepped into the house. The door closed behind him as he entered.
Inside, the faint glow of light illuminated the spacious room. Four elderly figures sat cross-legged on mats, their wizened faces exuding an air of authority. Cai Lin was already seated quietly on one of the mats.
Sensing Mo Yu's arrival, the central elder opened her eyes, revealing slitted pupils as cold as a venomous serpent's, locking onto Mo Yu with an unsettling gaze.
Following her lead, the other three elders also opened their eyes. A chilling aura surged from them, converging in the air to form a massive black python.
The python's emotionless eyes bore into Mo Yu, exuding an invisible pressure that grew heavier with each passing moment, pressing down on him like a mountain.
Faced with this oppressive force, Mo Yu's expression remained unchanged. With a thought, emerald-green thunder erupted from his body, enveloping him in an electric storm.
The appearance of the venomous thunder caused the room's chilling atmosphere to intensify dramatically. The sinister, icy aura emanating from Mo Yu far surpassed that of the four elders, rendering their oppressive serpent illusory and weakened.
"What kind of thunder is this? It bears a striking resemblance to the legendary Ghostly Poison Flame!" the central elder exclaimed in astonishment.
Her weathered eyes reflected her shock. Despite her long years, she had never encountered such a terrifying force.
Even Cai Lin was visibly surprised. Although she knew Mo Yu possessed mysterious types of lightning, this was her first time seeing this venomous green lightning.
Her thoughts wandered to the petite figure of Xiao Yixian, radiating toxic power, and then back to Mo Yu's strange thunder. Considering the relationship between the two, Cai Lin felt an inexplicable discomfort rising in her heart.
Above, the phantom serpent dissipated. The central elder's slitted pupils narrowed as she asked in a raspy voice, "You are Mo Yu, the master of the Yuan Manor?"
Mo Yu responded with a faint smile. "Indeed, I am Mo Yu. Greetings to the four elders of the Snake-People Tribe."
"To have reached the Dou Huang level at such a young age... truly a rare talent," the elder remarked with a sharp, almost menacing smile. She continued, "I am the Grand Elder of the Snake-People Tribe. These are the Second, Third, and Fourth Elders."
As the Great Elder introduced the others, Mo Yu politely greeted each in turn. His every gesture exuded the aura of a natural leader, his calm demeanor leaving the elders unable to fault him.
"Today's summons have a specific purpose," the Great Elder rasped.
"Please, speak your mind," Mo Yu replied evenly.
"This concerns our tribe's leader, Medusa," the Great Elder began. Her tone grew colder as she continued, "Before a tribal leader can transform into human form, she must remain pure. Even after achieving transformation, a ceremonial cleansing at the tribe's altar is required before she may... consort with another.
"However, our leader returned... no longer pure. She claims it is related to you. Is this true?"
The Grand Elder's voice sharpened at the end, and four piercing gazes pinned Mo Yu where he stood.
Having anticipated this, Mo Yu nodded calmly. "Yes, it was me."
"Then, according to our tribe's laws, you must endure the punishment of being devoured alive by ten thousand snakes!" declared the Second Elder, her tone icy and menacing.
Mo Yu's silver eyes narrowed as he laughed coldly. "And what if I refuse?"
