Full-Time Magister: The Failed Knight, But the Dark Angel

Chapter 215 Zhan Kong feels a bit green.

"Xingyi, what brings you here?"

Zu Hengyao's expression changed drastically.

Zhan Kong gritted his teeth, "Grandpa, what are you doing now!"

Zu Hengyao's lips trembled, and after a moment he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. "Xingyi, you've come at the right time. I was wrong in this matter, and I've realized my mistake. I won't do anything foolish again. Xingyi, please plead for Grandpa."

Zhan Kong was completely numb.

You were the one who broke us up in the first place, and now you're the one resorting to tricks, yet I'm the one pleading for your life?

—Oh well, he's still my grandfather, after all.

Zhan Kong looked at the resolute man and woman standing alone on the stairway to light, hesitated to speak, and felt numb once again.

plead?

Who can I plead with...?

She is Qin Yu'er, who was separated from him for ten years, and who, being weak and powerless, broke her promise and failed to save him. Now she has transformed into a high and mighty forbidden spell mage.

Back when they first met in Jinlin City, he pulled him down from the sky. Now, he has rescued Qin Yu'er and they are very close. He also has forbidden spell power and can even kill the archangel Mu Ningwei instantly.

Zhan Kong was numb inside and out:

"...Me, me."

Mu Ningwei spoke first, "You're Zu Xingyi, right?"

"it's me."

"I've heard Yu'er mention you before."

Zhan Kong stared intently at Mu Ningwei, his eyes red-rimmed.

Why did Yu'er mention him to Mu Ningwei?

What kind of situation would lead a girl to introduce another boy to a girl?

Could it be that what he said was about being a coward or breaking his promise...?

Mu Ningwei could tell that Zhan Kong was in a bad mood, but he could understand it, after all, he had been arrogant towards Qin Yu'er.

"There's no need to plead for mercy. I have no interest in killing the head of the Zu family."

Zhan Kong's thoughts were in disarray.

Everyone knows that Mu Ningwei is ruthless and decisive; he once directly attacked the Lu family and wiped them out.

Given his personality, how could he possibly let Zu Hengyao, who had targeted him, go unpunished for no reason?

What is this? Is it charity?

"However, I won't pretend it never happened."

Mu Ningwei spoke up, "He can live, but he has to satisfy me."

Mu Ningwei had no ill feelings towards Zhan Kong.

Although Zhan Kong's original act of taking Qin Yu'er to the Holy City to her death was foolish, and his decade-long decadence was also very unmanly.

Otherwise, given the National Team Captain's talent, even if he started over in ten years, Zhan Kong should at least have the strength to go to Tianshan.

But at least Zhan Kong protected one side, never did anything bad, and always did good.

It's understandable for him to feel dejected because of the huge gap between them, but it's too harsh to say that he has to treat the promise to save Qin Yu'er as everything and ignore the hard work of life.

Therefore, Mu Ningwei's attitude was clear.

You can keep Zu Hengyao alive, but only if you satisfy him.

Zhan Kong subconsciously looked at Qin Yu'er.

Qin Yu'er gazed longingly at the somewhat unfamiliar face, then whispered, "Don't look at me. The boss's meaning is my meaning."

Zhan Kong was stunned:

"You call him 'boss'?"

Qin Yu'er nodded. "I'm the boss's employee."

Thank goodness, they're just employees!

Zhan Kong was extremely relieved, but for no reason, a bad premonition arose, and he decisively extinguished it.

"Mu Ningwei, what do you want?"

Mu Ningwei said slowly, "That's too much. This is the life of a forbidden spell mage, and the price for provoking me."

"Actually, I wasn't that angry, but I still have to pay the price. Otherwise, what if people treat me like a saint and everyone starts messing with me?"

Zhan Kong nodded. "You're right. But I've long since left the Zu family. As for compensation, you can ask my grandfather for it."

Zu Hengyao looked ashen-faced and filled with remorse. Sensing Mu Ningwei's gaze upon him, he quickly forced a smile and expressed his stance:

"My family is willing to pay compensation!"

Mu Ningwei nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, then next up is Priest Wangyue."

Mochizuki Hachi raised his hands in surrender, then, in a helpless tone, deliberately spoke in Chinese with a colonel's accent, "Ning Weijun, I have never targeted you in any way; in fact, I have always spoken up for you."

"Qianxun even mentioned you to me, saying you're one of the most outstanding geniuses in the world."

"If you go against the Holy City, my Moonlit Clan will remain neutral."

Mu Ningwei smiled and said, "I have a good personal relationship with Instructor Qianxun. I thank Priest Wangyue for speaking up for me this time. I will visit Instructor Qianxun another day."

Mochizuki was secretly pleased. It seemed that what the family said was true; Mochizuki Chika and Mu Ningwei had become good friends.

Mu Ningwei is capable of instantly killing an archangel; Mochizuki Chika has made a great contribution!

More importantly, he is only in his early twenties. Putting aside his future progress, the fact that he still has several decades left to live is enough to make him a worthy friend of the family.

But the thought of Mu Ningwei clashing with the Holy City gave Wangyue Bashe a headache:

"Ning Weijun, you may come to the family to visit Qianxun often in the future. There is nothing for me to do here, so I will take my leave now."

We'll talk about the future later.

As long as he is still alive, the Mochizuki family will remain standing.

Mu Ningwei waved his hand, "Wait a moment, Priest Wangyue."

With mixed emotions, Mochizuki Hachi pondered how to go back and recount the story of Remiel's trip out of town and the fact that he couldn't even find his ashes.

Just then, something unexpected happened.

A ray of holy light emerged from the abyss of the island that Mu Ningwei had slashed out, piercing through Qin Yu'er's frozen ice layer, and unfolding layer upon layer of illusory wings.

Zu Hengyao was overjoyed, "Lord Remiel is not dead!"

Mu Ningwei was also surprised, looked closely, and then relaxed.

That wasn't Remiel at all, but a pure ball of light with six flawless, pure wings, flying towards this direction.

Zhan Kong was astonished. As expected of the Holy City Angel, he was able to survive such terrifying magic!

Zu Hengyao also realized that it was not Remiel, but it was ultimately the power of an angel, and he felt hopeful.

"What is this?"

Unaware of any threat, Qin Yu'er looked at the boss, whom she remembered as all-knowing, seeking clarification.

"An angelic soul embryo?"

Mu Ning could only guess. He saw the angelic soul embryo flying towards him, reached out and grasped it, and pure energy flowed into his body.

The angelic soul vanished in the blink of an eye.

Qin Yu'er was still puzzled.

Mu Ningwei explained upon seeing this:

"The angels of the Holy City are essentially still human. They became angels because they inherited the power of the angelic soul embryo."

"Besides the seven well-known archangels, the Holy Shadow Mage and the Holy Arbiter of the Holy City are also angels, possessing angelic soul embryos."

"Many of those people possess forbidden spell combat power. Even if they haven't reached the level of forbidden spells, they can easily become super-level powerhouses. This is the fundamental reason why the Holy City can stand proudly in the world."

Asha'ruya, standing nearby, spoke up:

"But if we, Parthenon, choose a goddess, we will not be inferior to the Holy City."

Asha Ruya walked to the bottom of the Stairway to Light, squinted at Qin Yu'er, and looked at Mu Ningwei in disbelief.

He's already a forbidden spellcaster?

How is that possible!

Even when Wen Tai was in his thirties, he only had a half-forbidden spell.

The boy who was once on the same level as her has, in the blink of an eye, quietly surpassed Wen Taisheng in his prime!

Asha's eyes sparkled:

In that case, as long as Ning Wei returns to Parthenon, they will definitely go on a killing spree!
