Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 191 Remiel: Cheng Xiao got the MVP!

Dulank's screams echoed throughout the entire sacred mountain.

The guardian knights, the judges, the holy judges, and even the dozen or so forbidden spellcasters watched this scene from afar, not daring to entertain the thought of stopping it.

Previously, this twelve-winged seraphim wearing platinum armor had defeated the Emperor of Death, and no one dared to offend him!

High Priest Durank of the Holy Inquisition was tortured to death in front of the Parthenon's high command.

Raguel merely frowned slightly but offered no words of advice.

She was unaware of the full extent of the conflict between Cheng Xiao and Remiel, and if she tried to intervene at this time, she might offend Cheng Xiao.

Cheng Xiao's murderous intent towards Dulanke was pure and could not be resolved with just a few words.

As for stopping Raguel, he felt that he probably wouldn't last more than five rounds against Cheng Xiao in his current state.

"When are you coming back with me?" Raguel asked.

"After you've dealt with things here..."

..............................

Everything that happened on the sacred mountain was completely sealed off by Parthenon.

Firstly, the Parthenon's reputation was greatly damaged in this battle, and secondly, it represented the Holy City.

The Holy City did not want Cheng Xiao to reveal his identity as the Archangel before his return.

Cheng Xiao didn't care about this, as long as the higher-ups at Parthenon knew his true identity.

Cheng Xiao's plan for this battle was entirely for Xin Xia's benefit: to eliminate Yi Zhi Sha, an obstacle, and to become Xin Xia's protector.

A few days later.

After Izusa's death, her dirty scheme came to light.

Parthenon originally intended to handle the matter secretly, but due to the insistence of Saintess Azharia and the pressure from Cheng Xiao, Parthenon had no choice but to wipe out the remnants of Yi Zhisha's gang.

Cheng Xiao's attitude was very firm: he wanted to eliminate all the remaining forces of Yi Zhi Sha.

The archangel's strength, which allowed him to defeat the Emperor of Death, was evident to all the high-ranking officials. Given that he was in the wrong, Parthenon dared not disobey.

Moreover, there are only two saintesses now: Asharuya and Ye Xinxia.

If Parthenon angers Cheng Xiao and exposes everything, and then brings Xin Xia, who possesses a divine soul, home, Parthenon will be completely finished.

It's no exaggeration to say that Cheng Xiao now holds almost the lifeline of Parthenon in his hands.

The most frustrating thing is that Parthenon has no way to deal with Cheng Xiao, after all, he is the Archangel of the Holy City!

..............................

Holy City.

The four archangels who had returned—Raguel, Raphael, Uriel, and Remiel—gathered in the highest meeting room of the Holy City.

"What did Cheng Xiao say?" Uriel asked Raguel.

"He's ignoring me." Raguel's face was expressionless, but his cold voice was filled with deep grievance.

She was a dignified archangel, yet Cheng Xiao treated her like a messenger, getting annoyed by her questions and even ignoring her altogether.

"And their attitude?"

"He will cooperate, but he needs to finish what he's doing."

"That's alright."

"."

Uriel sighed deeply: "Cheng Xiao's potential has already surpassed ours. His hatred for Durank is deep, which shows that he harbors a lot of resentment. Remiel, you were reckless this time."

Remiel's face was grim.

He racked his brains but could never have imagined that the person being guided by the seven-colored compass would be an archangel who had never been recorded in the Holy City!

"It seems the Parthenon followers have also heard something about Cheng Xiao's imprisonment in the Holy City," Raguel said, looking at Remiel.

"They support Cheng Xiao. Given Cheng Xiao's performance this time, Parthenon's followers are very dissatisfied with your actions."

Upon hearing this, Remiel finally couldn't hold back any longer:

"Why are they so concerned about this result? Why do they have to use this to compare me with Cheng Xiao?"

"This will alienate people's efforts, do you understand? Do you know what alienation and concretization mean?"

"Let me give you an example. Today, our Holy City has returned to the Archangels, and every Archangel is working diligently to maintain world order!"

"Under our protection, order has become stable, and the Holy City has grown stronger under our rule."

"But because of this incident, Cheng Xiao stepped forward in Parthenon, and his merits were settled after the war."

"Wow! Cheng Xiao got the MVP!"

"Seeing that we archangels are staying in the Holy City and doing nothing about this war."

"They're either upholding order or eliminating heretics, yet they haven't done anything about Parthenon. What a lazy dog!"

"The archangels of the Holy City are all easy targets! Parthenon's rating for this battle is 3.0!"

"Cheng Xiao stood up for Parthenon and repelled the Emperor of Death, 13.0! Can a carry game be calculated like this?"

"ah?!

"Tell me, are we archangels just lazy bums who get rich quick?!"

"Ignorant! This is truly a baseless denigration of us. Why are you so concerned about Cheng Xiao's performance in this battle? Shouldn't we look at what everyone actually did?"

"Has our Archangel maintained order and stability in the human world? Has he prevented our city from being attacked on a large scale by any demonic empire?!"

"You're still comparing our record with Cheng Xiao's one-battle record!"

"Aren't they all archangels from the Holy City? Shouldn't they just do their jobs?"

"A group of ignorant believers who know nothing, who readily criticize and belittle us, distorting our contributions and achievements to humanity."

"."

The three archangels fell silent for a moment after hearing Remiel's deafening speech.

After a few breaths, Raguel continued:

"That being said, Cheng Xiao still seems to hold a grudge against you and is not planning to let it go."

"I can see that." Remiel frowned slightly.

Judging from Cheng Xiao's public killing of Durant, he was clearly not willing to let the matter rest.

The last time Cheng Xiao cut off his arm, it wasn't a big deal for Remiel; he could just easily reattach it.

But this time Cheng Xiao is returning with a glorious record and powerful combat strength, so he might be even more outrageous than last time!

"Why don't you, Raguel, try to persuade them again?" Raphael suggested.

Raguel frowned and repeated what she had just said:

"He's ignoring me!"

Uriel advised:

"Be more patient. Cheng Xiao is currently harboring resentment towards Remier. Given his personality, it's quite possible that he'll extend his hatred to everything related to his enemy."

"Finally, it's all sorted out. This Yizhisha has caused so much trouble," Asha complained, then stared at Cheng Xiao warily.

"Aren't you leaving yet?!"

Cheng Xiao walked to the large, soft bed in the room and lay down, saying in an annoyed tone:

"I cleaned up all the trouble you caused, isn't it a bit much for you to turn your back on me after you've served your purpose?"

Asha'ruya snorted coldly:

"It sounds nice, but it's really just to take care of your little sister Xia's worries."

"Now that all the saintesses are dead, only your sister Xinxia and I are left to compete."

"In the end, with you as her brother and her possessing the Parthenon soul, I still have to be her stepping stone."

"Ultimately, you two siblings will be the beneficiaries!"
