Holy Land Core Region, Hidden Dragon Star System.
Qin Heng came from the Silent Extinction Zone, slicing open a spatial rift with his bare hands as he hurried toward the next Void Passage.
This star system was beautiful. He had taken a different passage from his last visit, yet the sights were equally majestic and magnificent.
As a transit-hub star system, the Hidden Dragon Star System had no fewer than seven Void Passages leading to different places. Back when Qin Heng was still weak, he had flown for quite a while in a spacecraft before reaching the passage entrance leading to Jiaolong Seat.
Times had changed. Now, after less than ten minutes of teleportation, he arrived outside the passage gate leading to the Eastern Embrace Holy Land.
A human powerhouse of the Star Lord Eighth Order guarded the Light-Forged Gate. Upon seeing Qin Heng, he did not dare ask for payment at all and respectfully said, "Lord Qin Heng, are you heading to the Holy Land? Things are rather lively over there right now."
Qin Heng asked, "What kind of lively?"
The Void guard replied, "Just these past two days, Eastern Huaiyue Lord returned. The acting Clan Leader of the Eastern Embrace Clan, the Eastern Calamity Sect Master, and the leaders of the Eight Great Clans of the Holy Land have all gathered to discuss major matters. I heard quite a few conflicts have arisen, and fighting may break out."
Then he asked Qin Heng, "You are close to Lady Dong Huaiyue. Have you come to help this time?"
The Goddess of War had previously participated in the Genius Competition as a member of Purple Snow Star and had interacted with Qin Heng many times. To outsiders, they shared the bond of fellow disciples and were far from strangers.
