The holy judge struck his gavel: "Since there are no objections, the court is adjourned!"
······
August and September are the rainy season, and the clouds in the sky above the holy city are thick and solemn.
The raindrops initially fell as gently as fine silk threads, lightly touching the streets and alleys of the holy city, as if afraid to disturb the tranquility of this sacred city.
As the rain intensified, it began to pour down, soaking every inch of the holy city.
Rainwater washed the ancient floor tiles, making them as smooth as mirrors and reflecting a dazzling light, making every line on the tiles clearly visible.
Zu Huanyao, dressed in a heavy robe, walked down the steps of the Holy Court.
Zu Xiangtian walked beside him, supporting him. People came and went on the main street of the holy city, and the surroundings were extremely noisy.
The grandfather and grandson did not return to their home, but instead walked along the bustling street.
As they walked, the two stopped in their tracks.
There is a park in front of us, and there is a sculpture at the park entrance.
At the very center of the sculpture is a middle-aged man, with a robust physique and strong features, and a cynical smile on his face.
"Hey, old man."
"You brat..."
Zu Huanyao took a deep breath and smiled.
This smile seemed to have been hidden in his heart for some time, and when it finally appeared, it conveyed a sense of weary relief.
"Second Brother," Zu Xiangtian said respectfully.
He could be arrogant in front of others, but he had no room for arrogance in front of his older brother, who was far superior to him in every way.
"Xiang Tian is here too, let's go find somewhere to have fun. I want to say a few words to the old man," Zhan Kong said.
Zu Xiangtian left without saying a word.
"Hey, this kid." Zhan Kong laughed.
“He’s only like this in front of you. He’s usually so flamboyant that he’s almost domineering. He’s too bold but not smart enough.” Zu Huanyao shook his head.
Zu Xiangtian was originally alright, but these past few days, when he's been with Xu Fang, the gap between them has widened to an unacceptable level.
As the old saying goes, it's not that you don't know the value of goods, it's that you're afraid of comparing them.
“Come back, I’m old, the Zu family needs you,” Zu Huanyao said.
"Me?" Zhan Kong was somewhat surprised: "Are you sure? I'm still wanted."
When Qin Yu'er was besieged by the Court of Judgment, Zhan Kong angrily took action and was wanted by the Holy City. Even her going to Bo City under an assumed name to become a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau was to evade capture.
"You think Grandpa has been doing nothing all these years?" Zu Huanyao laughed.
The Shura is more valuable than I imagined.
The scale of the operation today is larger than I expected.
The blond-haired Xu Fang was acquitted after killing Hecasa.
It's unreasonable and illogical that Zhan Kong, who didn't commit any murder, is wanted.
This was also Zu Huanyao's little scheme; for the sake of his grandson, he risked falling out with Old Man Bao and the others at this critical juncture.
"The Holy City is going to release Yu'er?" Zhan Kong exclaimed excitedly, "I'm going back to my country immediately, I..."
"Xingyi!"
Zu Huanyao interrupted him: "Don't mention Qin Yu'er again!"
"But it's me!"
"It's already a great achievement to have your warrant lifted, Xingyi. You need to look forward!" Zu Huanyao said.
Zhan Kong remained silent for a long while: "Since you're no longer wanted, can my curse be lifted?"
"Of course!"
Zu Huanyao said, "I will take you back to the Zu family now and give you several suitable host bodies for the Body Borrowing Technique. How can my grandson, Zu Huanyao's grandson, be inferior to others?"
Zhan Kong stopped talking and glanced back.
The majestic holy city appeared even more sacred in the rain, as if it were spotless.
But Zhan Kong could see through that shiny exterior to the filthy inside, which was disgusting!
Zu Huanyao was still talking about the Zu family's grand plans and glorious blueprint when he realized that Zhan Kong had become somewhat distracted.
"What are you thinking about?" Zu Huanyao asked.
"I want to cultivate properly after I recover my curse system," Zhan Kong said, silently adding in his heart, "I'll return to this place after I've mastered the curse system!"
Those bastards from back then deserve to die!
······
"I was worried you'd be mistreated here, but I didn't expect you to have the leisure to grow vegetables and raise fish?" Jiang Shaoxu said irritably.
"No way, I'm having a really tough time." Xu Fang shamelessly hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder.
"I don't even have enough to eat every day, so I have to grow vegetables and raise fish to support myself?"
"Do you think I'd believe that?" Jiang Shaoxu said expressionlessly, pointing to the koi in the pond that was as fat as a pig.
"Hehe." Xu Fang stopped talking and just kept holding her.
The raindrops dispersed automatically when they were only a dozen centimeters away from the two of them, each drop edged with a faint gold, making them look exceptionally beautiful.
"What will you do after you return to China?" Jiang Shaoxu asked softly.
"Well, let's deal with the base city first, and then go to Kunlun Mountain," Xu Fang said.
"Kunlun Mountains?"
“Yes, let’s go together. There’s a clue about a totem,” Xu Fang said.
He was referring to the Kunshan Jade obtained from the Abyss of Evil, which, according to Jiuyouhou, was related to a powerful being on Kunlun Mountain!
Chapter 565 Returning to the Holy City for Revenge
You damn bastard, how dare you frame me!
For a while, Shinobu thinks more and more angry, and takes a step back and thinks more and more losses.
If I couldn't kill you when I was at a higher level, and I still can't kill you now that I'm at an even higher level, then what the hell was the point of my higher level?
The silver plane landed at the Wizard Tower in Dubai, the headquarters of the Asian Magic Association.
After all, Xu Fang still has a ruling of "illegally using forbidden techniques" pending, which needs to be transferred to the Asian Magic Association for review.
Even though everyone knows this is just a formality, the necessary procedures still have to be followed, right?
Xu Fang directly applied for a secret room, announcing to himself that he was in seclusion and to others that he was imprisoned, not allowing anyone to disturb him.
"You little vixen, you've messed with your Grandpa Xu, now you're doomed."
Xu Fang smiled villainously and stepped into the silver vortex that had appeared before him at some unknown time.
Sha Yuan.
When Jiuyou Hou saw Xu Fang, who hadn't visited her in a long time, her face lit up with joy. But before she could even say a few sarcastic words, Xu Fang left through another silver vortex.
Nine Netherworld Queen: "???"
Damn it, don't treat the mighty Sha Yuan like a transit point on your journey!
At the same time, at the foot of the Alps.
"Pretty fast." Xu Fang looked at the sky, which was still bright and clear.
The holy city is three time zones away from the Tower of Bastille in Dubai. The latter is already dark, while it's only around five o'clock here.
A thin mist covered my body, making me barely noticeable on the reflective white snow.
"what!"
"puff!"
"Oh!"
"uh-huh!"
Amidst a series of exclamations, Xu Fang's appearance completed a four-step leap from delivery driver to logistics chef to apprentice mage picking up vegetables to prison mage, successfully infiltrating the prison.
"What a lousy prison, it doesn't even have electricity."
Xu was displeased, and even started to dislike the Holy City Prison.
This is the dungeon of the Holy City, where seven restrictions firmly lock countless villains in this underground world.
There is no light here, only the dim yellow candlelight flickering in the corner, casting mottled and distorted shadows, as if even time itself has become slow and heavy.
The long passageway was empty, except for the old stones.
At this moment, Xu Fang had become a fat man, dressed in a guard's uniform. He had a huge belly and dark spots on his face caused by excessive obesity.
"Henry, you've been sneaking into the kitchen to eat again!"
Another guard sneered.
Xu Fang remained silent.
"Henry, look at your fat belly. When you bumped into your wife, didn't her belly hit the ground first?"
The guy was still rambling on and on; clearly, this "Henry" wasn't a very popular person.
"I was going to spare your life, but you've really annoyed me..." Xu Fang's voice suddenly became sharp, like a woman's voice.
"Ok?"
The guard was stunned. Before he could react, his brain buzzed and he fainted.
Before he lost consciousness, he watched as the other person's face changed like the tide, eventually transforming into his own likeness.
Snapped!
