Not long after Zane Zuo fled, Evan Chu returned. Seeing that Frostbane Imperial Palace hadn't suffered too much damage, he felt much more at ease. But when he saw Jade Qin's injuries, he couldn't help but be shocked.
He didn't know Jade Qin's true strength, but at the very least she was late-stage Immortal Emperor. To be wounded this badly showed just how fierce the battle had been. With Nolan Nangong also present, for both of them to be so heavily injured, Zane Zuo's power was truly terrifying.
He realized he'd really underestimated his opponent before—maybe Zane Zuo was his true nemesis. "How is Sect Master Qin's injury? Why did this happen?" Evan Chu asked.
"She won't die for now, but it'll take a while to recover. Zane Zuo has a martial technique called Demonic Sevenfold Slaughter—it's insanely powerful. Its attack is rare and brutal, almost as terrifying as the sword technique you used to kill Hector Vaughn. Both are earth-shattering killing moves." Nolan Nangong explained.
When Evan heard about Demonic Sevenfold Slaughter, he couldn't help but think how similar it sounded to his own Sevenfold Absolute Cleave. Could Zane Zuo be using the same technique? But that seemed impossible. If he really had a martial art as strong as Evan's, then Evan would have no choice but to kill him sooner or later.
"Master, I left some excellent healing pills in the Warmjade Coffin. Give her one. I know Demonic Sevenfold Slaughter—it's a top-tier technique from the Demonic Realm. Its power is overwhelming; if he masters the seventh slash, he could destroy half the Immortal Realm with a single blow." The Emerald Empress's Remnant Soul said.
Evan Chu took out a fiery red pill from his storage ring and said, "Take this pill—it'll help your recovery a lot. As for Zane Zuo, one day I will kill him myself."
"Evan, what happened to those three ancient Immortals? I thought I heard the sound of self-detonation just now—did you really kill all three?" Nolan Nangong asked in shock, unable to believe it.
"Those three ancient Immortals were indeed killed by me—one self-destructed, the other two died by my hand. All three were traitors to the Immortal Realm, reduced to demonic lackeys, and deserved no pity. Today is supposed to be my wedding day; I haven't even finished the main ceremony yet." Evan Chu said with a smile.
Evan Chu didn't speak loudly, but everyone at his wedding was strong enough to hear every word. To kill three ancient Immortals—just thinking about that level of power was terrifying.
Now, even more people wanted to join Frostbane Imperial Palace. By killing three ancient Immortals, Evan Chu had unintentionally established his authority—something he hadn't expected at all.
After taking the pill Evan Chu gave her, Jade Qin felt her wounds improve dramatically. Her injuries hadn't healed all this time because Zane Zuo's saber-qi was infused with powerful demonic qi—its corrosive nature kept her wounds from closing.
Evan Chu then handed her a Jadeheart Lotus seed. "This will restore your Immortal Spirit Force and help your injuries heal much faster."
Jade Qin smiled and said, "You've gone to a lot of trouble for me, Palace Lord. Honestly, this time I've really lost face."
"Sect Master, don't say that. You and Nolan are heroes of Frostbane Imperial Palace. If it weren't for you two, Zane Zuo would have destroyed us long ago. I can't thank you enough—later, Evan Lin will have to toast everyone with a cup of wine." Evan Chu said.
After that, Evan Chu and Nolan Nangong entered the great hall, while Jade Qin was sent to a special room to recover. With this, the crisis at Frostbane Imperial Palace came to an end.
"Friends, what happened at Frostbane Imperial Palace today was beyond Evan Lin's expectations. But the crisis is now resolved, and from today, Frostbane Imperial Palace officially becomes one of the Immortal Realm's Five Great Powers. But I believe it won't be long before there are only four left in the Immortal Realm."
Once my wedding is over, Coldshroud Imperial Palace will be the first to fall. Zane Zuo dared to commit such insane acts—Evan Chu will never tolerate that. As I've said before, anyone who joins Frostbane Imperial Palace will receive the best treatment.
Anyone who dares oppose Frostbane Imperial Palace will face a miserable end. My strength is beyond doubt—there are only a handful in the Immortal Realm who could beat me. Now, it's time for Evan Lin and the three Immortal Fairies to bow and marry. Later, everyone should drink a few more cups to calm their nerves!" Evan Chu declared.
For a moment, everyone was talking at once—joining Frostbane Imperial Palace was truly a stroke of luck. After seeing Evan Chu's display of power, even more people decided to join.
After that, Evan Chu left the great hall. Immortal music began to play again, and Frostbane Imperial Palace returned to a festive atmosphere. Evan Chu brought his three brides out from the bridal chamber—with all three Immortal Fairies marrying him at once, it was an unrivaled honor, and no one dared object; all anyone felt was envy.
Only a powerhouse like Evan Chu deserved the three Immortal Fairies. After entering the hall, Nolan Nangong presided over the wedding ceremony. Xander Xuan, as Yvonne Xuan's father, sat at the top of the hall, along with the beautiful woman whose body Evan Chu had restored.
At that moment, Xander Xuan felt a bitterness he couldn't put into words. He'd truly misjudged things in the past—if only he'd listened to Yvonne Xuan, he would have been basking in glory right now. Instead, he could only swallow his regret.
Soon, the four-person bowing ceremony ended, and everyone offered heartfelt blessings. In front of the crowd, Evan Chu lifted the red bridal veils from his three brides, revealing their breathtaking beauty—the most stunning sight in the entire great hall.
Evan Chu led his three brides out of the hall and said, "Today is my wedding day, and being able to marry three beautiful Immortal Fairies is my fortune. I want to give them a truly unique wedding—I'm going to take them soaring through the sky."
As soon as he finished speaking, Evan Chu let out a dragon roar. Suddenly, a nine-clawed golden dragon appeared in midair. Revealing his true dragon form shocked the crowd—many had no idea Evan Chu was a Golden Dragon, and they just stood there, stunned.
Evan Chu looked down at his three brides and said, "Come on up, my beloved wives. Let your husband take you soaring above the Immortal Realm. The Golden Dragon is a noble identity—only you three are worthy to stand on my back and enjoy such an unprecedented spectacle."
The crowd erupted—this truly was a one-of-a-kind wedding. The three brides were deeply moved and flew up onto Evan Chu's back. With another thunderous dragon roar, Evan Chu carried them away, disappearing from everyone's sight...
