Chapter 1371: Chapter 1358: Great Chaos in the Demon Realm, Immortal Emperor and Ghost Emperor Take Action_1 Chapter 1371: Chapter 1358: Great Chaos in the Demon Realm, Immortal Emperor and Ghost Emperor Take Action_1 “Still uncertain.”
Ruoxie rubbed his nose, chuckling nonchalantly: “Cang Ming and I both noticed, the mental connection with him was cut off, this wouldn't happen unless he had encountered fatal danger.”
“That shouldn't be.”
Lin Qingluo frowned, doubts arising: “Given his strength, it's just the destruction of a clone, it wouldn't result in such severe injuries, endangering his life.”
“Perhaps he encountered something else.”
Ruoxie scoffed: “The Demon Race is treacherous and cunning, even among fathers and sons, brothers, affection is thin, fratricide is commonplace, let alone strangers.”
Lin Qingluo's eyes lit up: “Could someone have taken advantage of this situation, and struck him down in secret?”
“This possibility cannot be ruled out.”
Little Kingfisher's little eyes gleamed mischievously, her heart leaping: “If someone really overthrew and usurped the throne, with the Demon Emperor dead, the Demon Realm would inevitably be in turmoil.”
“If a civil war breaks out, it would be a great piece of news for the human race. At least before the war is over, they won't have the energy to invade other realms again.”
“Hopefully, that is the case!”
Lin Qingluo held Tianlei, looking up at the starry sky, sincerely wishing.

With the fall of the Demon Emperor, the Demon Realm, as Little Kingfisher predicted, fell into a long-lasting turmoil.
There were many among the Demon Race generals who were dissatisfied with Qing Cang's rise to power, forces from each state vied for power, refusing to yield to each other, and minor skirmishes often occurred.
A spark can start a prairie fire.
Under the instigation of the remnants of the Demon Emperor, the leaders of each state gathered their troops, broke away from the rule of the Demon Palace, and each became their own king.
As the new Demon Emperor suppressed a few vassal kings with bloody methods, the state leaders were filled with indignation. They raised the call to arms and led their armies from all sides towards the Demon Palace, besieging Qing Cang.
Cang Ming was among them.
The once arrogant demon princes, after the fall of the Demon Emperor, were successively beheaded by Qing Cang.
Only he escaped from the control of the demon claws, hiding in the state house governed by Demon Lord Xiao Long, barely surviving, living in wretchedness.
Xiao Long took in Cang Ming, not out of kindness, but because of his identity as the second prince of the Demon Race.
Qing Cang's usurping of the throne did not win him popular support.
Each of the remaining Demon Lords had ulterior motives, attacking him under the guise of avenging the previous emperor.
The thoughts concealed in their hearts were all about eliminating opposition, seizing the opportunity to ascend to the powerful position, becoming the next supreme ruler of the Demon Realm.
Xiao Long was a cunning plotter. He sheltered Cang Ming, also planning for future power grabs.
According to his idea, he held control over a powerless prince, cultivating him into his own puppet.
In the future, he would push him to the throne. In reality, the real power was in his hands. He would be the kingmaker, more advanced than Qing Cang's blatant murder and usurpation.
Xiao Long's thoughts were beautiful, but reality was cruel.
Each of the Demon Lords in the Demon Realm were cunning and bloodthirsty. They would not let his schemes succeed.

With the Demon Realm in chaos, how could the Immortal Emperor and the Ghost Emperor, the two lords of the realm, miss such a great opportunity, sending people to infiltrate into the states of the Demon Realm, monitoring the demon riots, and stirring up disputes when given the chance.
The two supreme monarchs had the same thought, they must keep the Demon Realm in chaos for longer, allowing the various realms that had been harmed by the Demon Race to recuperate.
With the deliberate care of the two monarchs, the battle for the throne in the Demon Realm gradually escalated, and conflicts among state leaders grew heated.
Disputes arose everywhere, and war was continuous.
The Demon Race was each for their own, no longer thinking of invading other realms.
All realms enjoyed rare peace, ushering in a thousand years of peaceful times.

Immortal Realm, Guangming Immortal Palace.
Lord Duobao arrived at great speed on his escaping light, landing in front of an old man with white eyebrows and beard, benevolent brows and kind eyes, with a clear and gentle face.
He respectfully bowed and reported truthfully the news he had gathered from the Demon Realm.
