Meanwhile, the various parties who rushed to the imperial tomb upon hearing the news were stopped outside by Hei Chifei and his soldiers, but no one suspected that he was forging an imperial edict.
After all, the demon emperor's phantom had just appeared above the imperial mausoleum, covering the sky, and no one else could have impersonated him.
However, the various factions have different ideas as to why the Demon Emperor appeared in the imperial tomb.
The most nervous person was the Second Prince. He had two assassination plans, one overt and one covert, and he was willing to expose his important pawns planted next to the Crown Prince in advance. Even if their assassination failed, it would make the Crown Prince lower his guard, since he would subconsciously think that he had no other options.
In addition, Wu Liang, a member of the Pangolin tribe whom he went to great lengths to recruit, was his trump card.
This guy is quite mysterious, with a wide range of skills that even he admires.
Having made such arrangements, he was actually quite confident of success.
Now that the Emperor has suddenly appeared in the imperial mausoleum, is it because the Crown Prince died and he rushed there to cover up the news, or is it because he was actually in the imperial mausoleum all along, which led to the assassination attempt failing?
That doesn't make sense. According to my informants, Father Emperor should have been in the palace not long ago.
However, he was not sure about this, since with the Demon Emperor's strength, his subordinates might not be able to really monitor him.
And what exactly was the commotion in the imperial tomb just now? Could it be the shockwave caused by the battle between my men and the crown prince?
Because he cared so much, he was extremely anxious about losing what he had.
Just like him, there was another person who was anxious about gaining and losing. On a high tower in the palace stood a beautiful woman in palace attire, wrapped in a fiery red fur cloak. Against the backdrop of white snow and cold wind, she appeared even more delicate and noble, attracting many guards to secretly observe her.
Knowing it was a grave sin, the little demon queen was just too beautiful, so beautiful that one couldn't take their eyes off her.
The little demon queen did not have her usual charming and affectionate smile at this moment; her brows were slightly furrowed, as if shrouded in countless clouds of sorrow.
"Such a big commotion, could it be that he succeeded?" The little demon queen was anxious. She had trusted confidants among the guards around the imperial mausoleum, who would send back news as soon as there was any result.
But now that the Demon Emperor has arrived, all news has been blocked, making it impossible to find out what exactly happened in the imperial tomb.
“With that kid’s strength, he does have a good chance of succeeding. But if the Demon Emperor goes there and they get caught, will he implicate me?” The Little Demon Queen looked worried, but she quickly gritted her teeth and said, “Hmph, at worst I’ll just deny it and say that he was sent by the Second Prince to frame me. I am the Little Prince’s mother, and the Demon Emperor needs me to assist the young prince.”
Unlike these two individuals with their own ulterior motives, the other factions analyzed the situation more closely than they could have known the truth.
Hu Qianxiao and Shi Zhentian were both looking towards the imperial mausoleum from their respective residences, wondering why a large amount of primordial energy had suddenly erupted at the imperial mausoleum.
Although the imperial mausoleum is a place of auspicious feng shui, it is still a tomb after all, and theoretically it should have a stronger death aura, making it unlikely that it could have erupted with such a strong vitality and energy.
In the Golden Roc Royal Palace, the current master, the Little Golden Roc King, sat in the pavilion drinking wine, gazing in the direction of the imperial mausoleum: "The spatial elements are fluctuating violently. Could it be that some secret realm has opened? But what kind of secret realm would open at the location of the imperial mausoleum?"
In the Sea Clan's residence, a beautiful woman suddenly emerged from a pool, the water droplets on her skin sparkling and glistening in the sunlight.
Shang Liuyu looked in the direction of the imperial mausoleum with a puzzled expression. After a moment of contemplation, she directly transmitted her thoughts through her spiritual energy: "Little Chiwen, go and find out what happened at the imperial mausoleum. Also, go to the snake clan and see if Queen Medusa and her friends are still there."
From afar came Chiwen's frustrated voice: "I can go and scout out the imperial tombs, but I'm not going to the snake clan's territory."
The snake tribe left me with too many painful memories, and I still have psychological trauma from thinking about it. I have no desire to go back there.
A few days ago, during the competition for seats among the representatives of various tribes, the giant maggot warrior was beaten so badly that he spat out excrement. At first, he joined the people around him in laughing gloatingly, but then he started to cry because he had actually tasted that flavor before...
"Are you itching for a beating? Watch out or I'll beat you up." Shang Liuyu didn't hold back.
Chiwen shuddered: "Fine, I'll go. Why are you being so fierce?"
From a young age, he was extremely favored in the Dragon Palace. The Dragon King treated him with utmost care, so naturally no one else dared to offend him in the slightest.
But this aunt didn't care about anything else. If he did something wrong, she would really beat him severely. As a result, he was afraid of nothing but this aunt from childhood to adulthood.
Inside the Elf King's Palace, Qiao Xueying was restless. Finally, unable to contain herself any longer, she ignored the people in the palace's attempts to stop her and left the palace.
She could no longer care about the people sent by the Crown Prince to monitor her. The commotion at the imperial mausoleum gave her an ominous feeling. She needed to go to the Snake Clan to check on Zu'an's safety.
Countless people speculated and worried. Zu An was especially terrified, fearing that the Demon Emperor might kill the women at the slightest provocation. Yu Yanluo was alright, after all, she was the head of a clan, and killing her easily would have a terrible impact. But Yan and Yun did not have similar status to protect them.
Concerned, he hurriedly said, "Demon Emperor, this Miss Yan is skilled in rune and array techniques; she can help with the upcoming unknown lands. This Miss Yun is skilled in... skilled in..."
He was speechless for a moment. He couldn't very well say that Yun Jianyue was good at killing people, but how could she compare to the Demon Emperor?

It's even less likely that she's skilled in seduction or anything like that.
At this moment, Yun Jianyue snorted: "You brat, you don't need to speak up for me. I stand between heaven and earth. If I die, I die. How can I beg for surrender from others?"
