Facing Yao Heshan''s doorstep visit to "seek a person," Long Qingyang was acutely aware that he could no longer keep this matter hidden, after all, Ji Jingqiu was to enter the Ancient Road, and now this brat was directly bypassing the Federation''s way...

    Not long after.

    Staring at the passage in front of him, Yao Heshan was somewhat stupefied.

    Is this really a...

    Passage?

    Does East Three Bright Star also have a passage leading to the Nine States?

    Why didn''t he know about it?

    East Three Bright Star...

    Certain ancient rumors suddenly flooded into his mind, Yao Heshan thought of something, his complexion greatly changed, and he whispered:

    "Is this Daoist Collection left behind by Marshal He?! Was Ji Jingqiu favored by Marshal He?!"

    In that instant, it was as if he had an epiphany.

    "He''s the successor of Marshal He! No wonder this kid could rise so rapidly..."

    Long Qingyang corrected him: "You''ve got it backward, Jing Qiu was first breaking out from the Evil Poison Disease, proving his Innate status, then was seen by Marshal He who gave him the legacy Daoist Collection."

    "Yes... Yes, exactly." Yao Heshan said in a trance, "According to the timing announced by the Ji Family, it should indeed be so..."

    He recalled the specific time, the time the Ji Family announced to the world corresponded exactly with the time when Ji Jingqiu left to prove his Innate status, an indication that at that time the Daoist Collection was still there and it proved Long Qingyang''s words to be correct.

    Yao Heshan suddenly glared at Long Qingyang and took a deep breath: "No wonder you went to great lengths to get this planet under Ji Jingqiu''s name!"

    Long Qingyang remained calm and composed, after all, the deed was done, some people in the Federation, even if they wanted to renege and take it back, it was impossible now.

    Shi Xuanzhen suddenly added, "The senior from Nine Palaces who came here has not left yet, he is waiting for our response to Jing Qiu."

    Hearing this sentence.

    Yao Heshan''s expression turned grave, he decisively said: "This matter is of great importance, make a copy of this information immediately, I need to communicate with the higher-ups, and swiftly deliberate a set of regulations!"

    This matter, one could say, was not so much about the key information regarding the Inheritance Ancient Road sent by Ji Jingqiu, but rather the three spots.

    These three spots represented the goodwill of an Overlord Level power named "Nine Palaces" toward the Federation.

    Although it was not yet clear why the other party was showing goodwill, whether it was because of Ji Jingqiu, the Federation needed to quickly make a decision and determine how to respond.

    The nature of this matter had evolved into an inter-state affair.

    And Overlord Level powers...

    If he remembers correctly, based on the information currently held by the Federation, the overall strength of the Overlord Level powers in the Nine States is still above the top civilizations of the Great Universe!

    At least Oasis doesn''t have any Overlord Level powers.

    Taking the photocopy of the information, Yao Heshan left in a hurry.

    Long Qingyang contemplated: "Just wait for old Yao''s reply before you head back, also have someone organize an electronic version of the information and send an advance copy to those mentioned by Jing Qiu."

    "Understood."

    "Mhm, remember to choose one of the three spots yourself, after all, it''s a resource that Jing Qiu brought back," Long Qingyang expressed nonchalantly.

    Shi Xuanzhen couldn''t help but feel sentimental; just a few months ago he could still give pointers to Ji, yet in such a short period, he had received Ji''s favors several times.

    Long Qingyang walked out of the Divine Temple and looked around, aside from this Divine Temple, the surrounding area had been dismantled and was beginning to undergo a major transformation.

    And this Divine Temple was also continuously guarded by personnel from the Dragon Tiger Dojo.

    He pondered, now that the news of the passage had been leaked, the current defensive efforts were probably not enough, for the moment he was personally stationed here, but he couldn''t always stay here, he still needed to call for additional people...

    According to the original plan, wasn''t Bai Lu almost due back from the Nine States?

    And just one Bai Lu was probably not enough.

    This matter wasn''t difficult if they were willing to invite other forces, such as allowing other dojos to set up branches on East Three Bright Star, naturally powerful individuals could be called upon to take a station.

    Slowly walking forward, Long Qingyang already had a plan in mind.

    According to the news leaked by someone from the Qin Family, the Federation was only going to become more unstable. Even the Dragon Tiger Dojo had to seriously consider its future position within the Federation and unite any forces they could.

    Speaking of which...

    Long Qingyang suddenly stopped.

    He had a sudden realization that Ji Jingqiu seemed to be able to become a "center."

    A core that brings together various forces.

    ...

    A supremely streamlined remote meeting was initiated by Yao Heshan.

    The current president of the Federation, Liu Chong, rubbed his brow, his expression revealing fatigue as he was overwhelmed with too much work lately, especially the negotiations with outside civilizations, which were rather draining on his heart and strength.

    After listening to the rapid briefing from Yao Heshan, the former Security Bureau chief, Liu Chong was somewhat stunned.

    Not just him, the head of the War Control Department, Zhao Tianhe, also had a frozen expression after quickly scanning the dossier and took a deep breath: sea??h thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    "Part of it matches the intelligence we have, although the rest has not been verified, but I feel it should be correct! This information is very important!"

    The current intelligence on the Ancient Road held by the Federation was either collected by the numerous Heavenly Human Martial Artists who infiltrated the Oasis or obtained through their exchanges with local powers of the Oasis.

    But the strongest power they had dealt with was only equivalent to a first-rate civilization of the Great Universe.

    Liu Chong zoned out for a moment, then slowly said: "So, Ji Jingqiu has really joined an Overlord Level force?"

    Everyone was silent.

    Those present were well aware of what Overlord Level power represented.

    "If I''m not mistaken, it should probably be the route arranged by Marshal He before his death," someone whispered.

    Everyone remained silent, the statement was likely true, this path was probably Marshal He''s favor before his death, but in their view, such a favor was at best akin to a "referral spot," and what truly allowed Ji Jingqiu to stabilize his position was still himself.
