Back then, Henry Lin didn’t tell Evan Chu the truth—he wasn’t unfamiliar with the Crimson Demon Star at all. In fact, he knew it very well!
Ten thousand years ago, he was ordered to carry out a mission in a star-region controlled by the Moon-Demon Clan. There, he saw a genius youth of the Moon-Demon Imperial Line who had refined a star exactly like the Crimson Demon Star. But compared to the star Evan Chu possesses, that one was far weaker.
And according to the records, anyone who can absorb such a star doesn’t need high cultivation, but their talent must be terrifying. Otherwise, if they force the fusion, their soul will explode and they’ll die on the spot!
That Moon-Demon Imperial youth is now a Saint Venerable Realm powerhouse. In the vast Star-River Dominion he’s not considered truly strong, but in his own little region, he counts as a local overlord.
In other words, Evan Chu was able to absorb a Crimson Demon Star even stronger than that youth’s—which means Evan’s talent far surpasses the Moon-Demon Imperial prodigy! And according to the Moon-Demon Dynasty’s records, once their imperial bloodline awakens, they’re destined to reach the Holy Emperor Realm. Just imagine how terrifying that talent is!
This also means that if Evan Chu survives and keeps growing, the Frostbane Dynasty is basically guaranteed to gain another Holy Emperor-level powerhouse in the future!
But there’s one secret Henry Lin has always kept to himself. He never spoke about it, afraid it would stir up other emotions in Evan Chu and affect his cultivation—or even change how others saw him.
The truth is, the Crimson Demon Star isn’t a single star at all—it’s actually a collective term for the dark-red stars absorbed by the Moon-Demon Imperial Line from their own starfield. Strictly speaking, the Moon-Demon Dynasty has its own natal starfield, and all the stars they refine come from there. Any of those stars can be called a Crimson Demon Star.
But now Evan Chu has absorbed a Crimson Demon Star, and he’s clearly not of Moon-Demon imperial blood. So this explosive secret can only be buried forever—if it ever leaks out, disaster is guaranteed.
Because the Moon-Demon Dynasty is several times stronger than the Frostbane Dynasty—it’s a top-tier dynasty, and just among their ranks, there are three peak Holy Emperor-level powerhouses!
