Luo Xiao had been spending the past few days at Jiang Yao's palace. He had been focused on cultivating and practicing alchemy with such focus that even his lover was tossed to the back of his mind.
In usual times, Jiang Yao would have been jealous, but due to the many rumors and chaos that had broken out in the noble circles within Cloudsoar City, the Seventh Demon Prince decided to strike while the iron was hot.
He understood very well that Luo Xiao was also busy, so he did not need to feel guilty for not accompanying him much recently, and instead he made his stance clear; he was not going to take over the throne of the Demon Empire, but he refused to let his fourth brother get the position as well.
Such words brought chaos and fear throughout the whole society, but many decided to use this period to gain benefits.
