Two years later, after Great Xia's dynasty prosperity for ten years, an internal strife broke out in Sui Province. Although it was quickly suppressed by the dynasty, this suppression lasted for nearly half a year. It completely let the aristocratic families, the Demon God Sect, and many other forces in the provinces see that the dynasty was strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Therefore, in less than two months, the chaos in the provinces intensified. Some provinces even announced that they had broken away from the dynasty's nominal control.
Moreover, the clans of the Imperial Family also used the name of purifying the monarchy to join forces with the aristocratic families to control the prefectures under their jurisdiction.
