Su Xin had a detailed understanding of the 36 countries of the Western Region. In the end, Su Xin's conclusion could only be described as "weird".
In fact, the Western Region was also very prosperous in ancient times. In the past, the Human Emperor had not completely destroyed the Western Region before he directly ascended. The dynasty had completely collapsed, so the 36 countries of the Western Region had been preserved.
However, if the 36 countries of the Western Region had developed normally, they could have even developed into a big country like the Golden Horde Kingdom with the help of the Western Region. Unfortunately, the Western Region itself had not lived up to expectations, and the internal strife between them was too serious.
Not only were there fights between countries, but even a country could sometimes split into a bunch of small countries.
According to ancient historical records, there were more than 50 countries in the Western Region at the beginning, but later they began to split. At their most prosperous time, there were even more than 200 countries.
Su Xin could not imagine the concept of more than 200 countries in such a small place as the Western Region. It was estimated that the smallest country in the Western Region at that time had only one city.
During the time of the Great Jin, the Western Region was better. There were more than 70 countries, but later half of them were destroyed by the Great Jin, leaving only 36 countries.
In history, the Central Plains had also declined, but even so, the 36 countries of the Western Region rarely invaded the Central Plains like the Golden Horde Kingdom. It was not because they did not have the strength, but because they often joined forces to invade the Central Plains when the dynasties of the Central Plains were weak. In the end, because of internal strife, they would fight each other halfway, and then completely disappear after robbing something.
After all, it was an alliance of dozens of countries, and the strength of these countries was about the same. Even if one country was stronger, it was not to the extent of crushing the other. Therefore, even if they joined forces, there would be endless internal strife.
Su Xin did not bother to say anything about these weird countries. He could only say that the people of the Western Region were too greedy. They only focused on the little benefits in front of them, and it was difficult for them to achieve great things.
Che Ju Country, where Su Xin and the others were heading, was the most typical small country among the 36 countries in the Western Region. There were no sects or aristocratic families in the country. The strongest was the royal family of Che Ju Country, which had a warrior of the Yang God Realm.
Su Xin led Yin Xixue and the others to the Che Ju Kingdom's palace. The Che Ju Kingdom's guards wore strange armor and wielded scimitars. They shouted at Su Xin and the others in a strange language.
All of them had the strength of the Xiantian Realm, and it was because of this that they could feel the terror of Su Xin and the others.
Su Xin frowned because he could not understand what these Che Ju people were saying.
In fact, the world was so big that even the Zhou Kingdom had some dialects. For example, the accent of the Southern Hunan, where Su Xin was originally from, was somewhat different from that of the Central Plains.
However, warriors had strong mental strength, and they could even learn some languages very quickly. For example, even if Su Xin did not deliberately learn the languages of other countries, he could still understand the languages of the Golden Horde Kingdom and the Western Frontier of Buddhism.
As for the languages of the 36 countries in the Western Region, Su Xin really could not understand them. No warrior would be so bored as to learn all the languages of the 36 countries in the Western Region.
The strangest thing about the Western Region was that the languages and characters used by each country were different. Even if these two small countries had split from a big country, the first thing they did after the split was to change their own languages and characters. It was as if they could really become a country on their own, completely cutting off all ties with each other. However, this was useless to ordinary people.
Just as Su Xin was thinking about whether or not to directly knock them out and enter the palace, a warrior from the Western Region in a golden costume said a few words in the language of the Che Ju Kingdom. He then said to Su Xin and the others in fluent Central Plains Chinese, "Seniors, please come in. My master is waiting for you in the palace."
This warrior had the strength of the Divine Transformation Realm, which was considered an expert in the Che Ju Kingdom.
Su Xin followed them into the palace. Although the area of the Che Ju Kingdom was not large, the style was not small. The entire palace was very gorgeous, decorated with gold and precious stones everywhere. To be honest, when it came to the level of luxury, even the Zhou Kingdom could not compare.
The warrior in the Divine Transformation Realm directly took Su Xin to the deepest part of the Che Ju Kingdom, where two people were waiting.
One of them only had the strength of the Innate Realm. It seemed that he was not young. He wore a brocade robe and a crown on his head. Obviously, he was the king of the Che Ju Kingdom.
Next to him was a middle-aged man with blond hair and blue eyes. The qi and blood around his body were extremely powerful. Impressively, he was also in the Yang Spirit Realm.
The warrior in the Yang Spirit Realm cupped his hands to Su Xin and said, "I am the State Preceptor of the Che Ju Kingdom, Akagi Tie. This is the king of our country. May I know why you have come to the Che Ju Kingdom?"
Akagi Tie's attitude toward Su Xin and the others was not bad. He had also guessed the identity of Su Xin and the others.
The Nine Hells had directly blocked the road from the 36 countries of the Western Region to the Central Plains. Not only could the merchants of the Central Plains not enter, but even the merchants of the Western Region could not leave. Therefore, the news had spread a long time ago.
At present, the people of the 36 countries of the Western Region were also wondering why the Nine Hells would do this. They did not have a powerful intelligence system like the martial arts world of the Central Plains. Therefore, they had no idea about the inheritance of the Great Heavenly Devil Lord.
The only thing that the people of the 36 countries of the Western Region could be sure of was that the experts of the Nine Hells should not have come for them. After all, the people of the Nine Hells had directly scattered after entering the Western Region. They did not gather together to cause trouble for the people of the 36 countries of the Western Region.
Su Xin nodded to Akagi Tie and said, "I am Su Xin. This time, I have come to the Che Ju Kingdom to trouble you with something."
He said this to Akagi Tie. As for the king of the Che Ju Kingdom, Su Xin did not even look at him.
For warriors in the Yang Spirit Realm, they were already existences that could be on equal footing with the imperial power.
When Ji Haodian was here, with his power, he might have been able to suppress the warriors in the Yang Spirit Realm of the Zhou Kingdom. But now that it was Ji Yancheng, the emperor could basically only be a decoration.
Moreover, this was only the Zhou Kingdom. With the power of the imperial family of the Zhou Kingdom, warriors in the Yang Spirit Realm like Su Xin would at least be more respectful to the emperor. If they were in the Eastern Jin Kingdom or the Golden Horde Kingdom, these existences in the Yang Spirit Realm could be on equal footing with the emperor.
This was already the case when facing the Golden Horde Kingdom and the Eastern Jin Kingdom, let alone the small king of the Che Ju Kingdom. To put it bluntly, the area of the Che Ju Kingdom was not even as big as a road in the Central Plains. It only had a dozen cities. The territory under Su Xin's command was larger than that of the Che Ju Kingdom.
When the king of the Che Ju Kingdom saw Su Xin's contemptuous attitude, he could not help but be furious, but he could do nothing about it.
Su Xin was not under his rule, so he could not control Su Xin.
Moreover, if Su Xin was a warrior in the Yang Spirit Realm of another country in the Western Region, he could put pressure on Su Xin through other means. However, Su Xin was a warrior in the Yang Spirit Realm of the Central Plains. What could he do to him?
Akagi Tie was a little displeased when he saw Su Xin's attitude, but he still cupped his hands and said, "It turns out to be Brother Su. May I know which faction of the Nine Hells you are from?"
An unfathomable smile appeared at the corner of Su Xin's mouth as he said, "I am not from any faction. I am not from the Nine Hells."
Akagi Tie was stunned. Not from the Nine Hells?
However, he seemed to have thought of something and exclaimed, "You are the Northwest Military Governor of the Zhou Kingdom, Su Xin, the Chief of the Shadow Guard!"
It was not Akagi Tie's fault. The Western Region did not want to invade the Central Plains, so they only had a limited understanding of the warriors in the Central Plains. They did not have comprehensive information about them.
The warriors in the Central Plains did not know much about the 36 countries of the Western Region. For example, Su Xin had never heard of Akagi Tie before.
Because the Nine Hells had blocked the entrance to the Western Region, Akagi Tie had thought that Su Xin was definitely from the Nine Hells.
Only now did he remember that the one named Su Xin who was not a Nine Hells Demon but was not a Nine Hells Demon, other than the recently rising Northwest Military Governor Su Xin of the Great Zhou Imperial Court, who else could it be?
Furthermore, when he heard that Su Xin was from the Zhou Kingdom, even the king of Che Ju Country revealed a hint of wariness in his eyes.
It was fine if he was from the pugilistic world, but Su Xin was an important official of the Zhou Kingdom. Now that he had suddenly come to a small country in the Western Region, it was hard to guarantee that he would not overthink things.
Su Xin cupped his hands and said, "Actually, I came here this time to ask Brother Akagi for a favor."
Akagi Tie frowned but did not correct Su Xin. Actually, his surname was not Akagi. He was just curious about what the Nine Hells and Su Xin wanted.
"If you have any questions, Lord Su, just tell me directly. If I can help, I will not refuse."
Su Xin asked Yin Xixue for an Image Recording Stone, which recorded the scene of the mirage in the past.
In midair, a grand scene appeared before everyone's eyes.
This place seemed to be an ancient battlefield filled with murderous intent. Countless wreckages were scattered all over the place, emitting a somber aura.
However, this ancient battlefield was very grand. Su Xin and the others could only see a bird's-eye view. The periphery of this place looked like a huge desert with some strange rocks and hills. The battlefield in the center was a little blurry.
The Magic Road Sect was able to determine that the remains of the Great Heavenly Devil Venerable were here because there was a golden scimitar embedded with black edges at the edge of the battlefield. There was a black dragon coiling around the hilt of the scimitar. Although it looked a little blurry, the Nine Hells could clearly recognize that it was the weapon left behind by the Great Heavenly Devil Venerable in the past — the Demonic Dragon Heart Seizing Blade!
It was because of the Demonic Dragon Heart Seizing Blade that the Nine Hells were certain that this was the place where the Human Emperor had killed the Great Heavenly Devil Venerable.
The Celestial Court and the Hades suspected that their Heavenly God and Emperor Feng Du had also fallen here because they had found something on the ancient battlefield that could represent their identities.
