1178 Complicit in Crime 3 (1/2)

Lin Xiao was not lying. That was a point he really did not know anything about.

Jun Wu Xie stared at Lin Xiao's pale face, thoughts of the origins of the Soul Calming Jade coming into her mind.

The Soul Calming Jade was originally one of the magical treasures of the Spirit World but in the years when the Dark Emperor had unified the Middle Realm, it had been taken away. After that, the Dark Emperor had died and the Dark Regime had buried all the treasures into the Dark Emperor's tomb and if she was guessing it right, the Soul Calming Jade would very highly possibly have been buried inside the Dark Emperor's tomb, so how did this piece of jade come to appear in the Qi Kingdom?

That was one point that Jun Wu Xie did not have an answer to no matter how much she thought about it. Regarding the Soul Calming Jade, she would have to ask Jun Xian to get the answers she seeked.

”In this cooperation by the All Dragon Palace and the Condor Country, did you intend to send the Condor Country soldiers to locate the Dark Emperor's tomb as well?” Jun Wu Xie went on to ask.

Lin Xiao's face turned an ugly colour and his eyes looked past Jun Xie to gaze at Jun Wu Yao standing behind, his eyes filled with terror. Just one glance, and he was already so horribly frightened that his spirit almost left his body as he climbed to his knees to kowtow continuously.

”All that was what the Elder told me to do! The Elder made me bring the map to the Dark Emperor's tomb down here to the Lower Realm to approach one of the powers in the Lower Realm to go seek it out. I had absolutely no intention of causing any offense to the Dark Emperor!”

He tried to explain in tears, as he pleaded for mercy.

Jun Wu Xie's brows came together slightly, not understanding from where the man's sudden fear and repentance was coming from.

[Whether he offended the Dark Emperor, was there a need to tell it to her?]

Jun Wu Xie had completely not noticed that a wide smile was on Jun Wu Yao's lips.

”Where is that map now?” Jun Wu Xie asked coldly.

”In….. In the hands of the Condor Country's Emperor…..” Lin Xiao said.
