This creature possessed a very high level of spiritual intelligence. Although following Chen Yu might cost it its freedom, the chance to reclaim the treasures it had accumulated over thousands of years naturally made it immensely happy.
More importantly, Chen Yu's promise of an immediate recovery was simply too tempting for the Heaven-Swallowing Python. Only days earlier, in their battle, a single blade strike from Chen Yu had nearly severed the python in two. Relying purely on self-healing, recovering from such injuries would have taken it at least several hundred, if not a thousand years.
The Heaven-Swallowing Python was unwilling to wait that long. Furthermore, now that it was injured, if the other three terrifying beasts were to launch an attack, it would lack the strength to resist and might even perish at their hands.
