The news of the Demon Venerable Xiang Bo's fall could not be contained. As fellow Demon Venerables of the Demon Realm, they would have a premonition if anything happened to one of them. It was precisely because of this premonition that some Demon Venerables dared to betray Yun Wu Yue.
Yun Wu Yue, as the Demon Emperor of the Demon Realm, was equivalent to the sky of the Demon Realm. Since Yun Wu Yue entered the Abyss of Heaven, they felt that the sky that had been hanging over their heads for countless years had disappeared. After repeated probing, they confirmed that Yun Wu Yue had "fallen" in the Abyss of Heaven, and only then did they dare to betray the Demon Emperor's Palace and establish themselves as kings.
This was a premonition between strong individuals.
However, the betraying Demon Venerables never expected that the reason why the sky above them disappeared was not because of falling, but because of breaking through the shackles and becoming an existence surpassing the Heavenly Dao.
Since they had surpassed the Heavenly Dao, they naturally couldn't sense it.
Back to the main topic.
The Demon Venerables located in various parts of the Demon Realm all sensed that the Demon Venerable Xiang Bo had fallen. At the same time, they also knew that the Seven Absolutes Demon Venerable had left the Demon Emperor's Palace and was heading to Yi Ling City.
Demon Realm, Scarlet Sun Heavenly Demon Domain!
The Scarlet Sun Heavenly Demon Domain was the territory of the Scarlet Sun Demon Venerable, Yun Wu Yue's sworn brother.
As the Demon Emperor's sworn brother, the Scarlet Sun Heavenly Demon Domain was incomparably vast. In terms of scale, it was at least ten times the size of the current Mortal Dust Realm.
At this moment, in a large hall filled with eerie demonic energy, the Scarlet Sun Demon Venerable sat on the throne. In front of him, there were three illusory figures, who were also sitting on their respective thrones, displaying a commanding aura.
"Scarlet Sun, Xiang Bo has fallen!"
The Demon Venerable illusory figure in the middle spoke.
"I know." Scarlet Sun's tone was calm, and his expression was as still as an ancient well. Even the other three demons, who were also Demon Venerables, didn't know what Scarlet Sun was thinking at this moment.
"The aura of a Demon Venerable tribulation has come from Yi Ling City. I think it's clear who is undergoing the tribulation. And Seven Absolutes left the Demon Emperor's Palace, and then Xiang Bo fell. But you don't believe that Seven Absolutes could kill Xiang Bo in a short time, right?"
The Demon Venerable illusory figure named Li Yang, on Scarlet Sun's right side, spoke at this time. Seven Absolutes Demon Venerable had not been gone from the Demon Emperor's Palace for long when Xiang Bo fell. This seemed to point the finger at Seven Absolutes Demon Venerable, but as fellow Demon Venerables, they knew that even if Seven Absolutes Demon Venerable's strength was stronger than Xiang Bo's, it was impossible to crush him.
And Xiang Bo's death must have had other reasons.
"What do you want to say?" Scarlet Sun looked at him.
The Demon Venerable illusory figure's gaze turned cold, and he said, "Seven Absolutes Demon Venerable must have borrowed some of the Demon Emperor's Palace's power to kill Xiang Bo in a short time. Although the Demon Emperor's Palace can only be controlled by the Demon Emperor's bloodline, Seven Absolutes is the Demon Emperor's closest person. Even if she can't control the complete Demon Emperor's Palace, she should still be able to borrow a fraction or two of its power."
"Hehe, according to you, if Seven Absolutes could really borrow the power of the Demon Emperor's Palace, she would have been chasing us all over the world long ago." The Demon Venerable illusory figure on Scarlet Sun's left side sneered, obviously disagreeing with Li Yang Demon Venerable's words.
Li Yang Demon Venerable wasn't angry, but instead asked, "Chong Hai, then what is your opinion on the matter of Xiang Bo being suppressed by Seven Absolutes in less than half a day?"
The Demon Venerable named Chong Hai couldn't help but pause, but he still stubbornly said, "How can you be sure that Xiang Bo was killed by Seven Absolutes?"
"Then tell me, how did Xiang Bo die? Did he commit suicide because he couldn't think straight?" Li Yang snorted coldly.
Demon Venerable Chong Hai was momentarily speechless, but he still insisted on his own opinion, saying, "Only the Demon Emperor's lineage can use the Demon Emperor's Palace. Seven Absolutes cannot borrow the power of the Demon Emperor's Palace."
"You..."
"Enough!"
Li Yang Demon Venerable still wanted to say something, but Scarlet Sun interrupted them. Then he looked at the Demon Venerable illusory figure in the middle and asked, "Devouring Spirit, what is your opinion on this?"
"Opinion?"
Devouring Spirit Demon Venerable smiled and said, "It's good that Xiang Bo died. With him dead, we have one less competitor."
Scarlet Sun smiled upon hearing this, and he said, "Devouring Spirit is right. Xiang Bo's fall is only beneficial to us, not harmful. The Demon Realm is vast, but there are also many strong individuals. It can't withstand too many demons dividing it up."
"I believe everyone has a premonition that our Princess Yun Shuang and the Demon Emperor's Palace's integration has reached the most critical moment. Now that Seven Absolutes has left the Demon Emperor's Palace, it is the best time for us to attack the Demon Emperor's Palace."
"Speaking of which, Xiang Bo's death is still useful. At least, Seven Absolutes left the Demon Emperor's Palace because of him."
Scarlet Sun's words caused smiles to appear on the faces of the other three Demon Venerables. The reason they came to find Scarlet Sun was to have Scarlet Sun join them in attacking the Demon Emperor's Palace. As for Xiang Bo's death, it was completely unexpected.
"Since you have spoken, Scarlet Sun, then we will immediately gather our armies and attack the Demon Emperor's Palace," said Li Yang Demon Venerable.
"Attacking the Demon Emperor's Palace is naturally no problem, but what about the other Demon Venerables?" Chong Hai Demon Venerable said at this time.
"Hehe, before you came, the other Demon Venerables had already come to me," Scarlet Sun said with a chuckle.
"Hmm?"
The other three Demon Venerables looked at Scarlet Sun in surprise.
Scarlet Sun said, "They came to me because they wanted me and the alliance you are in to reach an agreement that we cannot turn against each other before we break through the Demon Emperor's Palace. I didn't agree immediately because you and I are one."
Scarlet Sun's words made the other three Demon Venerables feel very comfortable. Although their four Demon Venerable alliance was formed by Scarlet Sun, in the eyes of other Demon Venerables, Scarlet Sun was the boss of this alliance because Scarlet Sun's strength was indeed the strongest among the four Demon Venerables.
However, Scarlet Sun did not agree to the other Demon Venerables' agreement on their behalf. This at least showed that Scarlet Sun respected them and treated them as equals. They were naturally satisfied.
"Since they are taking the initiative to reach an agreement with us, we might as well agree to it. No matter what, the Demon Emperor's Palace's strength is still the strongest in the Demon Realm. If we want to break through the Demon Emperor's Palace, we cannot have internal strife," said Li Yang Demon Venerable.
Chong Hai Demon Venerable and Devouring Spirit Demon Venerable had no objections.
"Since that's the case, then I will agree to them," Scarlet Sun said with a chuckle.
Scarlet Sun and the three Demon Venerables discussed some specific matters, and the three Demon Venerables disappeared with satisfied smiles.
These were all their divine senses. Their main bodies were still in their respective territories.
After the three Demon Venerables disappeared, the smile on Scarlet Sun's face suddenly disappeared, and his eyes became deep and cold.
"A bunch of traitors!"
After cursing, Scarlet Sun couldn't help but wonder how Xiang Bo had died.
But since this was a critical time, he didn't dare to contact Seven Absolutes rashly. If other Demon Venerables found out that he and Seven Absolutes were secretly in contact, then his role as a double agent would be exposed.
That wasn't the problem. The problem was that if he was exposed, it would ruin his sworn sister's plan, and he didn't want to get beaten up.
Suppressing his curiosity, Scarlet Sun returned to his harem.
Scarlet Sun's harem had thirty million beauties. After favoring a few consorts according to the established order, Scarlet Sun dispatched his army to set off towards the Demon Emperor's Palace.
He had to put on a full show. Since he said he was going to attack the Demon Emperor's Palace, he naturally had to send out his most elite subordinates.
Three thousand Demon King generals, leading three billion True Demons, as well as countless demons who had reached the Supreme level, marched mightily towards the central area of the Demon Realm.
On the other side, Yi Ling finally passed the Demon Venerable tribulation. After two more Demon Venerables died in the Demon Realm, a new Demon Venerable was finally added.
After Yi Ling became a Demon Venerable, she had to return with Seven Absolutes to guard the Demon Emperor's Palace.
However, the area where Yi Ling City was located was very far from the Demon Emperor's Palace. Without a specific teleportation array, even a Demon Venerable would need to spend some time to reach the Demon Emperor's Palace.
And the teleportation array was inside Yi Ling City, but now Yi Ling City had turned into a crystal ball, which Yi Ling planned to carry with her. Otherwise, if she left, Yi Ling City would definitely be destroyed in the war.
But if she wanted to use the teleportation array, she had to enter Yi Ling City, which meant she couldn't stay with Yi Ling City.
So Seven Absolutes looked at Gu Changsheng.
"Brother-in-law!"
"Brother-in-law?"
Yi Ling exclaimed.
Gu Changsheng shrugged, took a sip of wine, and with a wave of his hand, disappeared with the two women without a trace.
"Master, wait for me, Little Cauldron!"
At this time, the Longevity Cauldron was still boiling soup, and it hurriedly followed, causing some soup to spill out and onto a demon mountain below.
The demon mountain absorbed the soup made by the Demon Venerable and actually gained a bit of Dao rhyme.
Many years later, another great demon will be born!
