Chapter 462: Unification

'No wonder I couldn't find the Nine Serene Profound Scepter no matter where I looked. It turns out that bastard swallowed it.'

At this point, Yao Xiaotian had already broken free from his confinement. However, his Dou Qi was sealed by Xiao Ming. His face was extremely gloomy as he stared at Yao Ming, his fists clenched.

Yao Ming glanced at him with a disdainful smile, then stepped forward. He opened his hands as if completely defenseless, his gaze fixed firmly on the many Elders. He spoke boldly:

"Elder Xian, Elder Ming, Elder Liu, you were all my trusted aides back then. Could it be that even you would choose to be my enemy?!"

"The Alliance Leader Xiao is currently dealing with the traitors for me. Everyone, withdraw from the formation now. All past matters can be forgiven!"

If it were an external enemy attacking, even if the enemy were extremely powerful, unity against the foe would be the natural choice. However, the current situation was clearly an internal struggle within the tribe.

One side consisted of the current Tribal Chief and the First Elder, who were acting against the best interests of the tribe. On the other side were the highly esteemed former Tribal Chief and the powerful human expert. As long as their minds were clear, they all knew which side to choose!

"We greet Tribal Chief Yao Ming!"

"We greet Tribal Chief Yao Ming!"

"..."

"Withdraw the Ten Thousand Snake Grand Formation! Do not provoke conflict with Tribal Chief Yao Ming's allies!"

The tense atmosphere eased, and the majority chose to submit to Yao Ming. The small portion of Yao Xiaotian's confidants couldn't defy the overwhelming trend either.

Xiao Ming also nodded in satisfaction, a faint smile curving his lips. With this, the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe could be considered integrated into the Heavenly Court. The plan to establish branches in the four regions outside Central Plains had taken away some of their experts. Now, they not only compensated for the Heavenly Court's strength but even exceeded it by far.

Seeing the situation stabilize, Yao Ming's robe rustled, and his gaze was as sharp as a blade as he looked at Yao Xiaotian and the First Elder. He walked towards them with measured steps.

With each step he took, a terrifying aura more powerful than anyone else present surged out, overwhelming everything.

'Two-star Dou Saint?!'

Sensing the overwhelming strength of this aura, both Yao Xiaotian and the First Elder turned pale.

They never anticipated that after being suppressed for so many years, Yao Ming's strength hadn't declined but instead had risen. He had directly ascended from a Half-Saint to that of a two-star Dou Saint!

"Worthy of being the Tribal Chief Yao Ming. His talent surpasses Yao Xiaotian by an unknown margin!"

The members of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe couldn't help but reveal ecstatic expressions. While their magical beasts' cultivation speed did not match that of humans, they did have a long lifespan. In the Magical Beast World, taking a few hundred years to advance from Half-Saint to a two-star Dou Saint was considered quite a fast pace.

"My dear brother, today I shall return all the suffering I endured over these hundreds of years to you!"

With a few flickers, Yao Ming appeared in front of Yao Xiaotian. A grimace crept onto his face.

"Big brother, big brother! Please let me off! Back then, I was tempted by the First Elder to commit those beast-like actions."

Looking at Yao Ming before him, Yao Xiaotian, whose Dou Qi was sealed, displayed a face initially sinister but now flooded with fear. He pleaded in a high-pitched voice.

"Are you only aware that I am your elder brother now? The bitterness I have suffered during these few hundred years has all been thanks to you!"

Yao Ming's voice was chilling. He slowly lowered his body and his hand rubbed Yao Xiaotian's head. Though his face was bloodied, it momentarily softened.

"Back then, I truly regarded you as a brother. If you had not betrayed me, the position of the Tribal Chief would have been yours sooner or later…"

"You… You've enjoyed all the good things since you were young. If I'm to die, don't think you'll get away unscathed!"

Yao Xiaotian trembled as he sensed Yao Ming's touch. He could sense the murderous desire in Yao Ming's heart.

Understanding that he was doomed today, a savage expression flashed in his eyes.

However, just as he was about to circulate his Dou Qi to explode his body, Yao Ming's gaze turned dark and cold. His palm acted like the sharpest blade, ruthlessly plunging into Yao Xiaotian's head. In an instant, blood and brain matter sprayed out.

Bang!

Yao Ming was without expression as his hand was inserted into Yao Xiaotian's head. After which, he slowly withdrew it. There was a round black fist-sized bead in his hands.

The bead was smooth as a black fog vaguely flowed within it. It agglomerated into a screeching face, which resembled Yao Xiaotian.

All the members of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe present in the area stared at the mountain peak. They could sense that Yao Xiaotian's aura and bloodline fluctuations had completely vanished from this world.

Even those who were originally part of Yao Xiaotian's faction turned pale at this moment, trembling uncontrollably, not daring to make a single move for fear of misunderstanding.

Holding the black bead, Yao Ming's eyes flickered with a hint of sorrow. When he finally avenged his grudge, he didn't feel much joy. His heart was only filled with emptiness.

"Gulp…"

On the ground, the First Elder swallowed hard. He had not expected Yao Ming to be this ruthless. Even Yao Xiaotian's Monster Core was forcefully extracted by Yao Ming. Clearly, Yao Ming did not wish to give Yao Xiaotian a chance to make a comeback.

Seeing Yao Ming standing motionless beside Yao Xiaotian's corpse, Xiao Ming didn't utter a word to disturb him.

Brother pitted against brother; this was indeed a tragic scene.

"First Elder, it's your turn next…"

Yao Ming let out a long sigh as he looked at the sky. He waved his sleeve and stored away Yao Xiaotian's corpse. He then lifted his head with a ferocious expression, looked at the First Elder, and spoke in a dense voice.

The First Elder's body trembled as he saw the extremely sinister look in Yao Ming's eyes. He understood that if he fell into Yao Ming's hands, his fate would be incomparably more tragic than Yao Xiaotian's.

"Demon Snake Sky Explosion!"

The gaze of the First Elder swiftly swept over Yao Ming and Xiao Ming. He suddenly clenched his teeth. Both of his hands rapidly formed a strange hand seal. Then, his body swelled and his skin rapidly wiggled. It seemed as though something was about to break out of his body.

"He actually dares to self-destruct!"

Yao Ming was surprised by the decisiveness of the First Elder's move, then quickly retreated.

"Not good, he's going to self-destruct!"

On the ground, the members of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe grew nervous. The detonation of a Dou Saint was immensely destructive, capable of obliterating an area of thousands of meters in an instant.

Xiao Ming's gaze swept over. He didn't think this person would be so determined to self-destruct. He broadened his spiritual perception and instantly absorbed all of the information around him into his mind.

He perceived the sly look in the First Elder's eyes, as well as the unstable energy in his body. Although it seemed similar to self-destruction, there were subtle differences.

"Cunning indeed, but letting you escape would be quite embarrassing for me."

Xiao Ming chuckled, spreading his five fingers and making a grasping motion. Profound saintly aura converged, drawing on the boundless energy of the world. A massive handprint thousands of meters in size was formed, emitting a crimson light that made it unbearable to gaze upon directly.

The massive handprint descended from the sky, solidifying space itself in the process. It appeared above the First Elder's head in an instant!

The First Elder's complexion turned deathly pale. He stared at the handprint, even the textures on the palm were clearly visible in his eyes. But in the end, he couldn't utter a single sentence.

"No…"

Bang!

The First Elder's body exploded with a deafening sound under the handprint. The force of the explosion caused the handprint to come to a halt for a moment before continuing to descend forcefully.

Thin, long snakes wriggled between the fingers of the handprint, attempting to escape into the sky.

As Xiao Ming exerted force with his five fingers, one by one, the snakes shattered into pieces, and their fragmented flesh and blood rained down from the sky like a blood shower, sending shivers down everyone's spines.

In the end, only one bright red poisonous snake survived, the same one that the First Elder often coiled around his shoulder.

At this moment, the bright red snake struggled to elongate its neck in an attempt to escape, its eyes filled with despair and fear. It was apparent that he hadn't thought that Xiao Ming would discover his desperate survival strategy.

"I was considering keeping you, this useless waste, for some purpose. But it now appears to be unnecessary."

Xiao Ming shook his head and captured the last remaining bright red poisonous snake in his palm, the one that had concealed the First Elder's monster core and soul, and signaled to Yao Ming.
