37 Marriage!
The chief envoy from Vermilion Empire was sure everything was a scam! He believed it was a conspiracy orchestrated by Lin clan patriarch- Lin Xinu!
"Lin Xinu, you can't fool me with your cheap actors and low level illusions!"
"I don't even know what the fuck is going here! So stop blaming me!" Lin Xinu said in an angry voice.
The great elders have informed him about the unbelievable achievements of Zhen Han.
He himself has a hard time believing someone can form spiritual veins and establish lower dantian within a span of less than minutes! Even the best of geniuses need years but now it was done in minutes.
Lin Xinu knew what the Elders said to him wasn't a lie. They wouldn't dare to lie about such a thing. Not to mention the Nine Manifestation he just saw.
Manifestation can be done at only Divine Manifestation, but for an Awakening realm cultivator to achieve such a feet is almost like a fairy tale.
"That kid might have failed in Manifestation but the very fact he can even enter his inner world is nothing less than a miracle! I have never heard someone having more than two Manifestation! This kid has nine! If he reaches Divine Manifestation successfully...!" Lin Xinu was analyzing all possible scenario.
"Geniuses are only a probability but this kid is different! He can be a trump card for my Lin clan!" Lin Xinu thought.
The chief envoy, on other hand, contacted his subordinates for more information on Zhen Han. He thought it was a scam but just in case he wanted to confirm.
"Either you are very good at acting or that kid is a son of devil!" The chief envoy said.
Zhen Ming's face twitched again. He was feeling depressed everyone was crediting demon or devil as his son's father!
-------------
"Han'er is my child," Lin Li said. She sighed with relief thinking her clan would not be wiped out. Lin Li was sure Violet Bead would never target her but same couldn't be said for others including her husband or her father!
"The tree implied violet radiance from five years ago is a curse. I am safe from the curse but others..."
When Lin Li thought of this, she was depressed again. She never revealed the details of tree to anyone including her husband, father, and father-in-law. They knew about the existence of Violet Bead but she thought it wasn't safe to reveal information about how her son caused the extermination of imperial capital and Emperor.
It has to be known that Zhen Han's grandfather- Zhen Ling- is the son of Skyrise Emperor! Zhen Ling might not have deep feelings for his father but how would he react if he knew his grandson killed his father? Zhen Han didn't killed Skyrise Emperor, but he was indirectly responsible. Not to mention the current crisis in Empire is also created by Zhen Han!
She couldn't think how her husband or her father-in-law would react. Maybe they would even consider Zhen Han as some unlucky freak!
"It is time for me to reveal everything I know to Han'er. I couldn't let him stay ignorant forever about his hidden powers," Lin Li thought.
--------
On the screen projection, the audience could see Zhen Han sitting in the lotus position. He didn't suffer any backlash after the 'failed' attempt at Manifestation. The great elders and the younger generation wanted to curse the heaven-defying luck of the kid.
If a cultivator fails in Manifestation, there is a heavy backlash which can even kill the cultivator.
"That kid can not be judged by common sense!" Lin Xinu said.
The chief envoy of Vermilion Empire couldn't believe the message he has got from his subordinates. Within a minute, his subordinates have given him all information on Zhen Han and his family. The Vermilion Empire has collected every information about Lin clan before so it didn't take much time.
"This is not a scam?" The chief envoy muttered. He took a deep breath and shattered a high-grade sound & image transmission talisman.
The talisman was something which can allow one to interact with someone even millions of miles away. Obviously the cost of making such a talisman is very high. Not even the imperial family of Vermilion Empire can freely use it.
The imperial edict dictate this talisman can be only used in situations which can affect the empire. The chief envoy believed Zhen Han's talent can affect the entire continent much less empire.
A green light came out of the shattered jade talisman. The green light transformed into a projection. One can see a man in imperial robe inside the projection.
The chief envoy fell on his knees even though the image in front of him was just a projection. It was a sign of respect for his great emperor.
"Your Highness, I apologize to disturb you," The chief envoy said.
"Qin Auir, no need to apologize. I am sure you will have some important matter if you used the talisman I gave you," the man in projection said.
"Your Highness, there is a heaven-defying genius in Lin clan," Qin Auir said. He explained the details of Awakening ceremony along with the background of Zhen Han.
Vermilion Emperor has an expression of disbelief when he heard the message of Qin Auir.
"Are you sure?" Vermilion Emperor asked in a serious voice.
"Yes, Your Highness," Qin Auir said.
There was no reply from Vermilion Emperor for a minute or two as if he was thinking of the present situation.
"Agree with the demands of Lin clan." Vermilion Empire suddenly said.
"Your Highness, they are demanding too m--"
"I am aware. You will give them what they want but in return you will ask them for a promise of marriage."
"W-What? Surely..."
"Yes. Zhen Han will marry Qin Yue!"
Qin Auir was shocked by the decision! Qin Yue! She was the youngest daughter of Vermilion Emperor!
She was a daughter the emperor had from a concubine, but her talent was heaven defying.
Qin Yue was only seven year old but her beauty was breathtaking as well.
Everyone in the imperial family believed when she grows up her beauty would make moon hide in shame.
But now the same heaven-defying beauty was to marry a kid with whose family was barely surviving by hiding in Lin clan!
"Your Highness, there would be a lot of trouble if the marriage happen," Qin Auir said. The imperial family and the great clans in both empires would definitely create trouble.
"My decision is final. I trust my decision will give us benefits we could never expect!" Vermilion Empire's projection said before disappearing.

Author's Note:
Genesis is more hard to write compared to my other novel (Tales of Sex and Vanity) so it takes much more time. Sadly my final semester B.E. exams are starting from next week, so the release rate for both novels would be affected till 10th June. I have to start studies from now!
There might be a chapter or two per week but rest assured all missed chapters will be released in second half of June! I promise I will make up for it!
Thank you!
