Considering that the snake's cultivation rank is a cycle higher than Rezen it shouldn't be afraid of him and instead attack with the intent to kill. However, this snake was simply a coward. It didn't bother to reply as it jumped down from the table as fast as it could causing some of the dried leaves to fall
When the snake landed on the floor, it merged with the shadows and it vanishes from Rezen's vision. Even when he tried to use his spiritual senses to find the snake he failed to locate it
"The snakes I saw in the desert have earthen brown or yellowish brown scales but this one was completely black in color" Rezen thought while rubbing his chin
His eyes continue to search for the slightest bit of clue on the snake's location but he simply failed to locate it. Giving up, Rezen spoke in his head
"Ivy, find that snake" Rezen ordered and a formless power spreads in the entire room to search for that snake
