The Great Nether Empress and the former Monarch of the Great Netherworld had a terrible relationship. The root of the problem was that back when the Empress was still the nation's Saintess, her prestige in the Holy Nether Land was already immense. No ruler would ever wish to see such a situation develop.
The Saintess's duty was to preside over divine sacrifices and communicate with the Divine Beings. In some respects, her status was even higher than the Sovereign's.
The Monarch of the Great Netherworld was merely their agent in the Mortal World; the Holy Nether Divine Beings were the true masters of the Holy Netherworld.
Therefore, to eliminate the Great Nether Empress while she was still the Saintess, the Monarch of the Great Netherworld deliberately dispatched a weak army to face Great Yan.
As a result, the army of the Great Netherworld, which had always held the upper hand, lost to Great Yan.
