Every clause in this contract is about mutual support between the two parties, while the ancient god created a world of great harmony, serving as the light of the righteous path.

The Demon Lord then founded the Demon Race, suppressed the demonic energy, and established a completely new lineage within the Six Realms.

The two are yin and yang, and they are compatible with each other.

To prevent the demons' ferocious magic from wreaking havoc on the six realms, the God Lord arranged for divine messengers to travel to the demon realm every 100,000 years to inspect the area and communicate with the Demon Lord.

None of the contractual terms stipulated that demons should kneel and obey every command of the divine messenger.

The core of a contract is that the two parties are compatible, rather than one party forcibly oppressing the other.

That's very strange.

Why did Song Xiwei observe the demon clan elders' reaction to the divine envoy?

It seems they've become so used to being suppressed and kneeling for so long that they no longer dare to or want to stand up again.

Even when the other party asked the demons to offer up several branches, the elders dared not raise the slightest objection.

What exactly went wrong?

The contract didn't explicitly state that demons had to obey the gods and their messengers, yet it seemed to have instilled in the demons a deep-seated obedience to the messenger's commands.

Until she heard Aoqian tell her that the divine messenger was dead.

Something flashed through Song Xiwei's mind. She didn't confirm it, but she already had a guess.

As expected, Aoqian said that he hadn't made a move at all; the other party was trying to suppress him with their divine power, but it was because his cultivation was insufficient...

Song Xiwei immediately realized what was going on.

It wasn't a matter of insufficient cultivation; it was clearly that he had violated his own divine status.

It is unknown whether the ancient god behind this divine messenger was aware of these actions.

He has clearly been doing this for a long time.

Who exactly is behind him, allowing him to exploit the contract signed by the first Demon Lord, which, once sealed, is not easily broken, allowing successive Demon Lords to pass it down from generation to generation, but gradually deviating from the contract of the first Demon Lord.

Rather, through subtle influence, the divine messengers and ancient gods became awe-inspiring figures who surpassed the demon lord.

Apart from Aoqian, all previous Demon Lords did the same thing.

What kind of deal led that divine messenger to betray his divine status, and what was the purpose of the person behind him?

Why manipulate the demon race in secret?

When Song Xiwei heard Aoqian say that the other party actually ordered him to spare the demon king and not to kill him, she was shocked.

The ancient deity was so sacred and solemn that all the gods of the six realms looked up to him.

Why would they condone the evil Demon King's actions? And even go to stop Aoqian from killing the Demon King...?

Could it be that someone else was behind the Demon King's actions?

Song Xiwei felt that the situation was becoming increasingly complicated.

That is precisely why the Demon King cannot be released.

"Your Majesty, there may be secrets behind the Demon King. After capturing him, capture him alive first," Song Xiwei reminded Aoqian.

Ao Qian replied, "I'm afraid that the divine envoy doesn't care about the life or death of the Demon King at all. What he cares about is that the secret won't be revealed. I'm worried that if I'm too late, the Demon King will have already been silenced."

Song Xiwei also shared this concern, "Let's give it a try, but only if our personal safety is guaranteed."

"You also need to be careful in Chidu; those old fogies are not easy to deal with." Aoqian could almost imagine how those old fogies would make things difficult for his beloved.

When he was around, those old fogies had plenty of complaints in private; now that he's not around, they're even less likely to target him.

"Am I the kind of person who lies down and lets others bully me? Don't worry, I've already locked up those elders who opposed me."

Song Xiwei sent a telepathic message to Ao Qiangang.

Suddenly, Xiao Guozi's voice rang out from outside, "Your Excellency Song, something terrible has happened!"

"What's wrong?" Song Xiwei pushed open the door and walked out of the library.

Little Fruit cried out anxiously, "Run! Run!"

"Why would I run away when I'm perfectly fine?" Song Xi frowned slightly.

"Those elders you imprisoned are all dead. Everyone says you killed them. The entire demon race is now going to attack you to avenge the elders. It's chaos, complete chaos..."
