Immortal Martial Emperor

A sky of endless rosy light, a gathering of brilliant stars!

Red silks fluttered everywhere, painting a scene of joyous celebration!

No phrases could better describe the Guiyuan Sect today.

"The Third Princess is the Royal Family’s most outstanding princess and one of the four great beauties. And Zheng Tian is the Chief Disciple of the Guiyuan Sect, once known as the number one genius of the Qin Kingdom. They truly are a perfect match!"

"What ’former number one genius’? Hasn’t the news of Hong Yu’s death already spread? Besides, I heard Zheng Tian’s cultivation has advanced again, reaching the Primordial Core Realm. He’s already reclaimed the throne of number one genius!"

"You’re not kidding, are you? Primordial Core Realm? He’s not even thirty!"

"A Primordial Core Realm expert under thirty, tsk tsk... Truly worthy of being the most outstanding genius in the history of the Qin Kingdom. Maybe he can even win the title of a True Dragon at the upcoming Southern Ten Nations Martial Competition!"

The Guiyuan Sect was situated atop a vast mountain peak. This mountain was named Celestial Essence Peak, personally chosen by the first ancestor of Guiyuan when he founded the sect.

This mountain was a full three thousand meters high. From the Mountain Gate at its base to the main hall at its peak, there was a stone staircase several thousand meters long. At this moment, the staircase was bustling with people coming and going—a truly lively scene!

"Grandfather, no matter what, you cannot let Beichen Celestial Frost marry that bastard Qi Tianbao," Tie Tongtian said with a grim expression as they walked.

Ever since the battle in the Tianmu Mountain Range, he had completely changed.

He lost the ostentatiousness of a rich young master and gained a measure of maturity and composure.

The matter between Beichen Celestial Frost and Hong Yu had long since spread from the Beichen Family.

After Tie Tongtian learned of Hong Yu’s death, he wanted to protect Beichen Feng and Beichen Celestial Frost to console Hong Yu’s spirit in heaven and atone for his own guilt.

But now...

Beichen Celestial Frost was about to marry Qi Tianbao, and Beichen Feng’s whereabouts were unknown. Tie Tongtian was naturally beside himself with anxiety.

Old Sir Tie glanced at him and said coolly, "I have my own plans. You need not say anything more!"

Tie Tongtian opened his mouth but didn’t dare say anything else.

He knew his grandfather’s temper very well. At a time like this, further persuasion was useless; it was better to wait quietly and see what he had arranged.

Elsewhere, Tang Muxue was walking closely behind Tang Long.

The little girl had a puzzled look on her face. "Grandfather, is that Hong Yu really dead?"

"Both the Guiyuan Sect and the Iron Soldier Pavilion have issued statements. He should be truly dead," Tang Long said with a regretful expression, nodding.

"Oh!"

A hint of disappointment showed in the little girl Tang Muxue’s eyes. "I was still hoping to compete with him in Artifact Refining. What a shame!"

Tang Long nodded. "Indeed. That little fellow’s talent was terrifying. If he had been properly nurtured, it wouldn’t have been impossible for him to become a Tier Four Spiritual Craftsman in the future. What a pity..."

As noon approached, inside the Guiyuan Sect on Celestial Essence Peak, the halls were already filled with guests.

Everywhere was decorated with lanterns and colored banners, brimming with a festive atmosphere!

Inside the hall, Zheng Tian and Qi Tianbao were dressed in fiery red, festive robes, their faces filled with excitement and joy.

Qi Tianbao glanced at Zheng Tian. "Congratulations, Senior Brother, for finally getting your wish and winning the beauty’s hand!"

"Hahaha, Tianbao, you’re one to talk!"

Zheng Tian laughed heartily, patting Qi Tianbao’s shoulder. "That Beichen Celestial Frost is even more beautiful and younger than Qin Qin, worthy of being called the head of the four great beauties. Countless men have wanted to win her favor, only to be left disappointed. You, kid, kept it quiet and managed to pick up such a great beauty. Even I am green with envy!"

Qi Tianbao’s eyes darted around. "If Senior Brother is interested, I’ll find an opportunity and arrange for you to... have some fun with her!"

"Oh?"

Zheng Tian was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and smiled. "She’s marrying you, after all. How could I touch my brother’s wife?"

But Qi Tianbao said, "Wife? Heh heh, Senior Brother, you should know that I’m only marrying her so Senior Sister Wang can get her revenge. I have no intention of treating her like some treasure. After we’re both tired of playing with her, I’ll divorce her and toss her to the other martial brothers to have their fun. Wouldn’t that be great?"

Zheng Tian roared with laughter, his eyes burning with a feverish heat. "As expected of you, Tianbao, you really see things clearly! Good! After I’ve properly ’disciplined’ that arrogant Qin Qin, I’ll have a good ’taste’ of our number one beauty!"

"Hahaha..."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Amidst his laughter, a sinister, cold light glinted in Zheng Tian’s eyes. His soft whisper was bone-chillingly cold. "It’s just a pity Hong Yu died too easily. Otherwise, if I could flog and ravage Beichen Celestial Frost right in front of him, he would be in agony, wouldn’t he?"

"Heh heh, don’t worry, Senior Brother. That Hong Yu died to the Yama Shuttle. His death was anything but easy!"

Qi Tianbao chuckled sinisterly and said, "It’s about time. Those two women should be on their way over. Senior Brother, let’s wait for them in the front hall!"

"Let’s go!"

...

In front of the Guiyuan Hall, lanterns and banners were hung. The vast Martial Arts Arena was set with more than two hundred tables.

Every table was filled with guests, all of them powerful experts sent by the various powers of the Qin Kingdom, and even the Southern Ten Nations.

In other words, everyone invited by the Guiyuan Sect to sit here was a monumental figure in their own right.

"The brides have arrived!"

A pair of beauties slowly approached, escorted by a group of powerful Guiyuan Sect experts.

A sharp-eyed observer would have easily noticed that the Guiyuan Sect disciples escorting the two brides were all on high alert. Clearly, they were guarding against any unexpected moves from the two women.

Third Princess Qin Qin’s expression was as calm as ever, showing no sign of anything unusual.

Only Aunt Leng, who knew her very well, was aware that having been born into the Celestial Family, Qin Qin had long prepared herself for a life where her fate was not her own.

She appeared much colder and more composed about this outcome.

Although the children of the Royal Family lived glamorous lives, behind this halo of brilliance lay many hidden struggles and a lack of personal freedom.

In contrast to Sister Qin’s calmness, Beichen Celestial Frost’s face was completely devoid of expression.

Or rather, even her eyes were so tranquil that they didn’t carry the slightest ripple of emotion.

As the saying goes, there is no greater sorrow than a heart that has died. That was likely her current state.

"The grooms have arrived!"

Zheng Tian and Qi Tianbao were, at this moment, like the sun at high noon.

The moment the two appeared, they were immediately met with a grand welcome from the many experts present.

Two men and two women, the two new couples, arrived before the main entrance of Guiyuan Hall.

Wang Ba, Qin Feng, Old Sir Tie, Tang Long, Xue De, and other Primordial Core Realm experts were all seated before the entrance of Guiyuan Hall.

Beichen Ba, however, was not among them. His injuries were severe, and to this day, he was still unable to get out of bed.

Therefore...

The one sitting in his place was the current controller of the Beichen Family, Wang Fei. Behind her, Beichen Huo stood silently, like a most loyal lapdog.

As for Little Feng, he was standing in front of Beichen Huo, whose hands were pressed firmly on his shoulders.

He stared at Beichen Celestial Frost with a gaze full of warning, as if to say: ’Marry him obediently, or I’ll kill this little bastard!’

Beichen Celestial Frost glanced at Little Feng but said nothing, her face still expressionless.

’She had long anticipated this situation.’

Little Feng seemed to have his movements sealed, able only to look at Beichen Celestial Frost with anxious and guilty eyes. Tears of humiliation and resentment welled up in the stubborn and tenacious boy’s eyes.

’You little bitch, you dared to oppose me. Jiejie, and now, isn’t your fate completely in my hands?’ Wang Fei’s face was twisted with the pleasure of revenge.

Seeing Beichen Celestial Frost look at her, she gave a sinister smile, raised her hand, and pinched Little Feng’s waist viciously before twisting her wrist a full 180 degrees.

"Ugh..."

Little Feng trembled all over from the pain. Veins popped on his forehead as cold sweat broke out; he was clearly in extreme agony.

But Beichen Huo held Little Feng down firmly, preventing him from even letting out a cry of pain. He could only endure the intense agony in silence.

’Little Feng...’

Beichen Celestial Frost’s pupils contracted slightly as she glared furiously at Wang Fei.

Wang Fei looked back at Beichen Celestial Frost brazenly, a broad smile on her face, as if she were enjoying Tianshuang’s pain and helplessness.

’I’m sorry, Little Feng...’

Beichen Celestial Frost took a deep breath and lowered her head.

Next came the ceremonial bows...

Sister Qin was like a numb puppet, allowing Zheng Tian to manipulate her through the solemn ceremony.

Because of their different statuses, the bows to Heaven and Earth were also performed separately.

After Zheng Tian and Qin Qin completed the grand ceremony, a leering Qi Tianbao walked up, smiling as he looked at the beauty before him.

His eyes were full of feverish desire. "Jiejie, Beichen Celestial Frost, the head of the four great beauties? Hahaha, I suppose I should be calling you ’my wife’ now!"

Beichen Celestial Frost raised her head slightly to glance at him as if looking at empty air, her gaze unwavering, then lowered her head again.

’Damn it, this bitch dares to ignore me? Heh heh, you just wait. We’ll see how I break you tonight...’ Qi Tianbao fumed internally, gritting his teeth.

"The couple will now bow to Heaven and Earth!"

Beichen Celestial Frost kept her head down the whole time, completing the bows to Heaven and Earth, and to the elders, along with Qi Tianbao.

Just as everyone thought this couple would also complete the ceremony smoothly and be sent to the bridal chamber, at the very moment the master of ceremonies called out "The couple will now bow to each other!" and Qi Tianbao lowered his head...

...a sinister, cold glint flashed in the eyes of the ever-indifferent Beichen Celestial Frost standing opposite him. A highly venomous dagger, shimmering with a dark light, appeared in her hand, and she thrust it viciously toward Qi Tianbao.

"How dare you!"

Qi Tianbao’s expression changed drastically.

He roared in anger and, as if he had been prepared all along, struck out with a Prajna Thunder palm strike, shattering the dagger in Beichen Celestial Frost’s hand.

His furious and sinister gaze locked onto Beichen Celestial Frost. He grabbed a handful of her long, beautiful hair and said in a chilling voice, "You bitch! I knew you wouldn’t marry me obediently. Hmph, I didn’t think you’d be so ruthless as to try and assassinate me with such a poisonous dagger!"

"My only regret is that I couldn’t kill you, you animal, and avenge Brother Yu."

Beichen Celestial Frost said very calmly.

’She had known all along that by trying to assassinate Qi Tianbao here, she would not escape death, regardless of success or failure.’

But to avenge the man in her heart, she was completely fearless, willing to pay any price, even her own life!

"Good, good, good. What a bitch. Brother Yu? Jiejie, your ’Brother Yu’ is long dead..."

Qi Tianbao laughed in extreme anger.

From the side, Wang Fei said coldly, "Tianbao, the most important thing for a woman is loyalty. This bride of yours is rather lacking!"

"Don’t worry, Senior Sister Wang. I will ’discipline’ her properly!"

As he spoke, Qi Tianbao slapped Beichen Celestial Frost across the face, sending her, whose cultivation had already been sealed, flying to the ground.

"Bitch! Today, I’ll strip you naked in front of everyone! After a thousand men have ridden you and ten thousand have had their way, I’ll send you to Hell to meet your lover, Hong Yu!"

Qi Tianbao muttered viciously as he closed in on Beichen Celestial Frost, about to make his move.

But just as his hand was about to touch Beichen Celestial Frost, a cold, furious shout suddenly thundered up from the base of Celestial Essence Peak, causing the entire noisy wedding banquet to fall silent in an instant...

"Whoever dares to touch her, I will have your entire family buried with you!"
