Evan Chu and the Savage Earth Dragon were teleported to an uninhabited region of the Azure Tide Ruins—a vast swamp, thick with poisonous miasma in some areas, clearly a dangerous place.
If he didn’t know he’d already been teleported, Evan might have thought he was still in the Divine Battlefield. At that moment, the sword spirit emerged from the center of Evan’s brow.
After glancing at the surroundings, she said, “This should be Deathmire Swamp on the western side of Azure Tide Ruins. There aren’t any powerful demon beasts here, but the miasma is extremely deadly. We should leave as soon as possible!”
Evan wasn’t worried about the miasma at all. He glanced at the distant sky and laughed, “Finally made it back. That Divine Battlefield trip was really a brush with death!”
With that, he flashed into the air, flying slowly toward Frostbane Sect. Along the way, Evan explained the situation in Azure Tide Ruins to the Savage Earth Dragon, so it wouldn’t cause any trouble later.
With the Savage Earth Dragon’s strength, no one in Azure Tide Ruins could possibly harm him. Now that Evan was heading to the Netherworld, having the dragon guard the sect was the perfect arrangement.
If Evan used teleportation, he’d have arrived in half a day. But because of the Savage Earth Dragon and the sword spirit, they flew for a full day and night before returning to Azure Tide Ruins. The sword spirit, not wanting to appear before others yet, slipped back into Evan’s body.
When Evan returned to Frostbane Sect, everyone immediately rushed over to greet him. The sect was now completely different from before—Freewind Palace, Sacred Sword Sect, Bloodfiend Hall, and Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion’s people were all here.
The entire sect had expanded massively, several times larger than before. Frostbane Sect now sat at the center, with the other four sects at the cardinal directions—east, south, west, and north—meaning Frostbane Sect was physically joined with the other four great sects.
Now Frostbane Sect was as solid as iron, and Evan was extremely satisfied with everything. If the dark organization attacked again, there was no way they’d leave alive.
