It could be said that the Fire Country had now become the most powerful country in the Lower Realm. The Fire Country was belligerent and they had launched quite a number of wars against other countries. It was not until the great war a hundred years ago that they had established themselves as the hegemon of the Lower Realm, that they had gradually retracted their warlike demeanor.
Now that the Fire Country was focused on developing their economy and their people were highly adept at martial arts, their position as the overlord was almost unshakable.
Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes. The treasure map to the Dark Emperor's tomb was split into eight parts. One of the parts was not known to the Twelve Palaces and was kept safe by Fan Zhuo, while the remaining seven parts were split amongst the hands of seven of the Twelve Palaces, due to the Dark Emperor's overwhelming might in the Middle Realm and the Dark Regions' tyrannical ways.
The Twelve Palaces did not dare to bear the crime of disturbing the Dark Emperor's slumber and they had sent people to contact the various major powers in the Middle Realm, to hand over the maps in their hands to certain people among the powers they had groomed, to have them help them locate the Dark Emperor's tomb.
At present, among the three maps that Jun Wu Xie knew of, besides the one that belonged to Fan Zhuo, one was in the Lower Realm's most powerful clan, the Qing Yun Clan, and the other was in one of the top three academies in the Lower Realm, the Zephyr Academy. Judging from these two powers, it was not difficult to deduce that the scapegoats that the Twelve Palaces had chosen were the various major powers in the Lower Realm. If not for that, they would not have had enough powers to challenge the Heaven's End Cliff.
There were a total of seven palaces involved. Jun Wu Xie did not know what the other five palaces were doing, but the seven palaces each had their own influence in the Lower Realm.
And this Fire Country, could very possibly be a power selected by one of the seven palaces.
"The Yan Country's Crown Prince." Jun Wu Xie looked at the man lying limply on the ground, knowing that he had confessed everything he knew.
It was impossible to dig out any more clues from him.
"Can … can you … let us go …" The man knelt on the ground, trembling.
Jun Wu Xie looked at the bow in his hand that was transformed from the Weapon Spirit.
"Give it to me."
The man was taken aback and when he saw Jun Xie staring at his ring spirit, he did not dare to hesitate in the slightest as he handed the ring spirit over.
Jun Wu Xie looked at the bow and said to the little black cat on her shoulder: "Try it."
The black cat immediately let out an obedient cry.
The man stared blankly at Jun Xie, not understanding what Jun Xie was trying to do.
However, in the next second, he was stunned by what he saw!
The palm-sized black cat raised its two front paws and held onto one end of the bow, slowly stuffing it into its tiny mouth.
The seemingly sturdy bow was actually bitten off by the black cat's sharp teeth!
Before the man could even recover from the shock, the agony of having his ring spirit forcibly ripped from his body had already caused him to fall to the ground, twitching uncontrollably!
The pain of his soul being torn apart caused his face to turn green and white foam to seep out of the corner of his mouth.
"Meow?"
This … seemed like it could really be eaten, but the taste was a little different from beast spirits.
When the piece that was bitten off fell into the black cat's mouth, it had already turned into a formless spirit body. It did not even need to chew before it was swallowed into the mansion.
The little black cat had devoured Mo Xuan Fei's Golden Lion before, and this was the first time it had devoured a weapon spirit. This was just a trial run by Jun Wu Xie, who would have thought it would actually work!
The little black cat swallowed the weapon spirit bit by bit, and the man lying limply on the ground, his limbs twitching uncontrollably, his eyes rolled back, and his breath was weak.
His companions, who were cowering at the side, watched this scene unfold with their own eyes. Their hearts were already filled with overwhelming fear!
