Versatile Mage: The Zhou Family's Young Master Forcefully Marries Mu Ningxue

Chapter 207: A High Priest of the Holy Judgment Court, a Newly Appointed Angel?

Since Liu Xian and Liu Ru arrived at the Zhou family, Zhou Haoyu has felt much more relaxed.

As the saying goes, if there's something to do, the secretary will do it; if there's nothing to do, you can find something for the secretary to do.

Two days later, Zhou Hong approached Zhou Haoyu with a serious expression and said anxiously, "Xiaoyu, the Holy Judgment Academy has come knocking."

"Oh?"

Zhou Haoyu raised an eyebrow, his face showing little surprise.

The only thing that puzzled him was that it was only the Holy Tribunal that came forward, but then he thought it made sense; Michael probably didn't want to confront them directly.

"Who came?" Zhou Haoyu asked.

Zhou Hong's expression was solemn as he slowly uttered three words.

"Zu Huanyao!"

Zhou Haoyu frowned. He remembered that Zu Huanyao was a priest of the Holy Judgment Court and the head of the Zu clan.

Sending a priest in person is enough to show how highly they value Zhou Haoyu.

"Where is he now?"

"He is still in the magic court."

Zhou Haoyu rubbed his chin. Could this old man be planning to make a move on the teacher?

Regardless of his intentions, Zhou Haoyu had to go to the Magic Palace to check on the situation.

"Dad, I'll go to the Magic Palace to check on things first. The worst-case scenario might require the family to move to Haotian City."

Zhou Haoyu said in a very serious tone.

Zhou Haoyu is not alone. Given the nature of the Holy City and the Holy Judgment Court, they are very likely to target his family.

If we openly confront the Holy City, staying in the capital is too dangerous; we have no choice but to go to Haotian City.

Haotian City is an independent city, and Zhou Haoyu can use the Divine Eye of Time and Space to set up a barrier to isolate it from the outside world.

This will ensure the safety of the clan.

As for the family business, this small foundation in the capital is not very important. After we take over the Holy City, we will have ten or even a hundred times more!
"Well, I see."

Zhou Hong did not question Zhou Haoyu; he could guess why the Holy Tribunal was looking for Zhou Haoyu.

Given Zhou Haoyu's personality, he most likely won't choose to give in.

“Chief Pang Lai, I’m doing this for your own good. There’s nothing shameful about joining the Holy City. Zhou Haoyu might even be able to gain a certain status there.”

In the highest meeting room of the Magic Palace, Zu Huanyao gave Pang Lai a long and earnest plea for advice.

As the head of the Zu family, Zu Huanyao also had some grudges against Zhou Haoyu and the Zu family, but he didn't care much about it.

This is just a minor skirmish; it's ultimately not something that can be taken seriously.

His biggest concern was Zhou Haoyu's personality; if Zhou Haoyu disagreed, he wouldn't be able to complete the Archangel's mission.

"Heh, just like you are now, serving them wholeheartedly?"

Pang Lai's expression was indifferent, and his words clearly implied that Yin Yang Ancestor Huan Yao had become a dog of the Holy City.

Zu Huanyao's wrinkled face twitched. Why did Pang Lai seem like a completely different person?

However, Pang Lai was not wrong; he admitted that he was acting as a dog for the Holy City.

But what can be done? The Holy City is the most powerful force in the world, bar none.

Even if all other forces were combined, they could not shake the authority of the Holy City.

He has already paid a heavy price to climb to the position of priest, and he absolutely cannot give up all his previous efforts.

“Pang Lai, this is a great thing for Zhou Haoyu, for China, and even for you.”

Zu Huanyao showed no anger and continued speaking calmly.

"Haha~~"

Pang Lai didn't care at all. He was already satisfied with breaking through to the forbidden spell level. The only things he cared about now were the Magic Court and his two disciples, Zhou Haoyu and Jiang Yu. "Zu Xiangtian became a judge when he was in his early thirties, while Zhou Haoyu became an angel at only twenty-five. His position is even above mine. He will definitely be one of the core members of the Holy City in the future."

Zu Huanyao was still unwilling to give up. He felt that the location offered by the Holy City was enough to tempt any mage.

The newly promoted angel is second only to the seven archangels!

Pang Lai closed his eyes and remained silent. If it were anyone else, he would never have objected.

But he knew Zhou Haoyu's character very well; he would never be subordinate to anyone.

Moreover, given Zhou Haoyu's potential, he will definitely become a powerful forbidden spell master in the future, so there's no need for him to go to the Holy City to become an angel.

Just then, a young and arrogant voice came from the doorway.

"Angels, bullshit. They're just dogs that are a bit too high-class."

Zhou Haoyu walked straight in from the door, sat down next to Pang Lai, and stared directly at Zu Huanyao across from him.

He had no interest whatsoever, not even in the position of one of the seven archangels, let alone a minor angel.

No one understands Michael better than him!

After Michael's return, the Holy City became his personal fiefdom, and even the archangels could not influence his decisions.

This guy is nothing more than using the name of God to rule this human world.

Upon hearing Zhou Haoyu insult the angel, Zu Huanyao's old face finally showed a hint of emotion, and even a flash of fear appeared in his eyes.

“Zhou Haoyu, young man, don’t be too arrogant. The Holy City is doing you a favor by giving you the position of angel.”

Zu Huanyao's eyes sharpened noticeably; this kid was indeed not so easy to talk to.

If anyone from the Zu family could get this opportunity, he would be so happy he would faint, but unfortunately, the opportunity fell into Zhou Haoyu's hands.

I have no idea how this kid managed to form a contract with the Black Dragon Emperor.

"You call yourself young if you're not hot-blooded? Do you think everyone likes to be a dog like your Zu family?"

Compared to Zu Huanyao, who still wanted to leave a way out, Zhou Haoyu's words were much sharper.

Compared to the Mu family, Zhou Haoyu disliked the Zu family even more.

First, the Zu family has no bottom line in their actions; second, the Zu family's businesses are mostly overseas and tied to the Holy City, making them nothing more than good dogs.

"you!!"

Zu Huanyao could no longer hold back. He immediately pointed at Zhou Haoyu with a snort and a glare, his old face turning red with anger.

Lies won't hurt, the truth is the sharpest knife!

Pang Lai looked at Zhou Haoyu in surprise. He had guessed that Zhou Haoyu would curse, but he didn't expect him to curse so fiercely!

They'll gang up the entire Zu clan and curse them all!

But somehow it sounds kind of cathartic?

"Is it because you can't refute it? Otherwise, why would you seal Zu Xingyi's magic system and then send Zu Xiangtian to become a judge? You're really despicable."

Zhou Haoyu spoke like a machine gun, every word hitting Zu Huanyao right in the heart.

Upon hearing the name 'Zu Xingyi', Zu Huanyao was momentarily dazed and collapsed into his seat, utterly disoriented.

How did he know?
After a long while, Zu Huanyao took a deep breath and returned to his previous appearance.

"You still have a choice now, but next time someone else comes, you might not have that choice."

Zu Huanyao looked directly at Zhou Haoyu and said calmly.

The influence of the Black Dragon Emperor was too great. Zu Huanyao knew the nature of the Holy City very well and would never allow a time bomb to remain outside.

This time they sent him as a persuader; next time they might just send Saint Shadow to assassinate him.

Although Zhou Haoyu had formed a contract with the Black Dragon Emperor, he was only a super-level mage.
