Han State, compared to other major states, was much colder, with very low temperatures, and some places even experienced year-round heavy snowfall, much like an ice age.
Gu Chen had come from Meteor State, spending a considerable amount to cross several major states through a teleportation array to arrive here.
As soon as he reached this place, he heard news of Gu Qingyan, which naturally filled him with joy.
What he hadn't expected was that there were still people in the upper realm who knew of his exploits in the Nine States, and they were openly discussing them.
However, someone eventually brought so-called "major news": Gu Qingyan had been seriously injured and had narrowly escaped death!
This news hit Gu Chen like a thunderbolt, immediately tightening his heart as if it had been grasped by a giant hand.
