Chapter 625

Bertha sighed in relief when Sebastian nodded. Then, she began sharing her plans.

Martin listened and nodded approvingly.

In fact, he had no intention of actually marrying Heather off to Sebastian. An engagement was enough for him. With that connection established, Heather could easily lure Sebastian away. Once she mastered the forbidden technique, the rest of the plan could be carried out.

To ensure nothing went wrong, Martin hurriedly arranged for the engagement to take place right there and then.

Though rushed, with so many senior members of the Netherworld Sect present as witnesses, it could hardly be considered hasty.

The ceremony itself was simple enough. It was just the signing of a marriage contract and the pressing of handprints by both parties.

Sebastian didn't object, knowing it was just an engagement, not a full marriage.

Right now, his priority was finding the method to unlock the third stage of his cultivation, handling the situation with Alissa, and then figuring out a way to return home.

He had no desire to stay in this strange world any longer than necessary. After all, his family and friends were probably worried sick by now.
