"No sooner" does not mean "immediately." It means "at the same time" or "not earlier (or not late) than the other thing."
e.g. No sooner did I arrive at home than the phone rang. (It means both "my arrival" and "ringing of the phone" occurred at almost the same time.)

It means; "immediately after".
There is really no need to ask why. Just learn it.
