"The Northern Region? King Mingcang?"
Qin Hao narrowed his eyes. At the mention of King Mingcang, his expression darkened.
"King Mingcang came to the Ancient Xuanhuang World too?" Qin Hao's face was grim.
"He did." Kang Yihou nodded. "We were among the first to enter the Ancient Xuanhuang World. Marquis Fengyun, King Mingcang, and I were together at first, but we were scattered after we entered."
"The three of us only met up later," Kang Yihou continued.
Marquis Liulang said, "I entered the Ancient Xuanhuang World with the second group and happened to run into Kang Yihou and Marquis Fengyun."
Qin Hao nodded slightly.
He already knew the broad outline of what had happened.
People had entered the Ancient Xuanhuang World in two main groups.
The first had entered before anyone knew the truth about the Ancient Xuanhuang World. They had all thought it was merely an ordinary Second-Level Space.
The second consisted of Creation Experts hastily summoned from all directions after the truth became known.

It numbered more than six hundred thousand!
Including those who had entered earlier, there were likely nearly seven hundred thousand Creation Experts in the Ancient Xuanhuang World.
"How is King Mingcang now?" Qin Hao asked.
Marquis Fengyun shook his head with a bitter smile. "We don't know. We met King Mingcang, but the Soul Race, Mechanical Race, and Puppet Race came after us. King Mingcang stayed behind to cover our retreat..."
Kang Yihou gave a bitter smile. "King Mingcang was truly fair and selfless. He knew we would only hold them back, so he used a teleportation talisman to send us away. But... even he hadn't expected us to be teleported into Insect Race territory."
"The Insect Race hunted us down. If we hadn't run into you...
