Chapter 1209
Chapter 1209: Chapter 1212: Old Grandpa from the Imperial Clan_1 Chapter 1209: Chapter 1212: Old Grandpa from the Imperial Clan_1 Although Bai Susu did not fully understand the significance of it all, she agreed since Lin Zhen said so.
When Meng’er finished speaking, Bai Susu asked hesitantly, “What are your plans for coming to the Witch Star?”
“I’m here to train in the Earth Core Purgatory, striving to attain Nine-Star Purgatory Warrior status.
Things would be much easier then.”
Bai Susu nodded continuously, “Hmm, I believe you can do it.
You’ve always been extraordinary.
Go for it.”
Meng’er snorted disdainfully, “Nine-star …..
That’s not so easy to achieve.”
Lin Zhen didn’t respond to her.
He and Su Su added each other as friends in the Dimensional Universe.
…
“Su Su, remember what I told you.
Don’t worry too much; things might not go that far.”
Bai Susu just thought that Lin Zhen was comforting her and silently nodded her head.
After having a drink, Meng’er urged Bai Susu to leave.
“Miss, you should return soon.
The master will worry if you’re out for too long.”
Bai Susu stood up reluctantly.
She wished to stay with Lin Zhen a little longer, but now she realized that she was not in control of many things.
It was better not to cause Lin Zhen more trouble.
Just as she was about to leave, Lin Zhen said, “Su Su, you’re getting married soon.
Should you be inviting me?
I plan on attending your wedding.”
Bai Susu didn’t want to invite Lin Zhen; the wedding was a torment to her.
However, facing Lin Zhen, she found herself unable to refuse him, and had no choice but to give him an invitation.
Lin Zhen accepted the invitation with satisfaction, “Su Su, I’ll be there on time.”
After saying their goodbyes, Bai Susu and Meng’er were the first to leave.
After they left, Lin Zhen lost interest in hanging around any longer.
He departed for Earth Core Purgatory, planning to achieve Nine-Star status as soon as possible.
The entrance to the Earth Core Purgatory was reachable by teleportation array.
Lin Zhen first registered for a citizen in Abyss Country at the registry management.
The process was pretty simple for Chris, a life form with Sovereign Authority.
After handling the formalities, Lin Zhen boarded the teleportation array and was transported to Earth Core Purgatory, five million kilometers from the underground city.
The entrance to the Earth Core Purgatory here was similar to the one he went to initially.
After entering the safety zone, there were many intersections leading to different Elemental Purgatories.
This time, Lin Zhen headed to the last entrance: the Chaos Hell.
Although the Fierce Beasts inside were the strongest and the elemental storms were rampant, these were no issues for Lin Zhen now.
He chose to train in the seventh layer of the Chaos Hell.
In just three days, Lin Zhen upgraded from Five-Star Purgatory Warrior to Six-Star.
At this rate, within just over a month, Lin Zhen would definitely become a Nine-Star Purgatory Warrior!

In the meantime, Bai Susu had returned to the Bai family.
Upon her return, Meng’er immediately reported to the family head Bai Feng about Bai Susu’s encounter with a man.
Bai Feng, who was a Quasi-God King level powerhouse, was displeased upon hearing the report.
Bai Xue had already lost hope of marrying, so he had pinned all hopes on Bai Susu and he would not tolerate any disturbances.
The Bai family had not been well managed over the years, talents were declining.
Aside from Bai Xue and Bai Susu, none of his descendants had amounted to anything.
And Bai Xue and Bai Susu were, in the end, women, not able to represent the Bai family in the future.
This time, the Imperial Clan’s bridal gifts were extremely generous, enough to breathe new life into the impoverished Bai family, an opportunity he cannot miss.
“Meng’er!
Take Miss Bai Su back to her courtyard immediately.
Guard her strictly and don’t let her out before the wedding.
After the wedding, she will be part of the Imperial Clan, and it won’t concern the Bai family anymore.”
“I understand, master.
I promise to strictly guard Miss Bai Su.
But, Bai Su did give an invitation to Lin Zhen.
He’ll be attending her wedding.”
“Hmph!
What’s so what about it?
He’s just a nobody.
We’ll have someone keep an eye on him, he won’t be getting in.”
Bai Feng did not take Lin Zhen seriously, he would not hesitate to get rid of him, completely severing Bai Susu’s lingering feelings.
Meng’er took her leave upon receiving the order, and Bai Susu was grounded in her courtyard, not allowed to step out of the house.
As for the wedding, preparations were in full swing.

All the influential families in the underground city received invitations.
Now they were just waiting for the old master of the Bai family and the old man from the Imperial Clan to return, and the wedding would be held immediately.
********
A month later, the old master of the Imperial Clan returned.
The current head of the Imperial Clan was called Qing Tian, also a Quasi-God King level powerhouse.
He planned to pass the position of family head to Jue Tian after the wedding, as Jue Tian was regarded as a youthful hero and also had the strength of a Quasi-God King.
Qing Tian, along with Jue Tian and the entire family, welcomed the return of the old master.
The Imperial Clan held a high status not only in Abyss Country, but also across the entire Witch Star, primarily because of the clan’s two elders.
Qingtian and Emperor Tian!
The elder who returned now was Emperor Tian, a superb powerhouse who ascended to God King level ages ago.
As for Qingtian, he was even more extraordinary.
He was the ancestral patriarch of the family and had already elevated to the rank of sovereign.
However, after achieving this status, Qingtian left Abyss Country and the Witch Star.
He never returned after his departure and stated that the family should not disturb him for any matter unless it concerned the family’s life and death.
Even this momentous occasion of the family head’s succession and Jue Tian’s wedding was not significant enough to inform Qingtian.
This ancestor was essentially just a symbolic figure for the family and did not handle any practical affairs.
The one who did handle affairs was Emperor Tian.
After Emperor Tian returned, everyone listened to his instructions obediently.
Emperor Tian sat on the chair in the middle of the hall, with all the family members standing down below.
No one dared to look him in the eye.
Only Jue Tian, who too held an endless desire for revenge, glanced at the old master surreptitiously.
The old master was his idol and the goal he strived towards.
Emperor Tian had committed his top-grade weapon, one of the Eighteen Divine Swords of the Thunder Seabird, for this marriage, truly facilitating the deal.
Without it, the Bai family would still be resisting.
Therefore, Jue Tian was extremely grateful to the old master.
In his mind, the old master was a wise and valiant figure of daunting stature.
