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

Chapter 193 Returning to the Holy City, Seeking Revenge!

The trial is not yet over, at least not from an external perspective.

Cheng Xiao's current identity is classified as top-secret information, and only the high-ranking officials of the Parthenon, the city of Athens, and the mages of the Holy Tribunal know about it when he goes into battle.

It wouldn't be difficult for the Holy City to suppress the news and completely block it.

But no matter what, Cheng Xiao was the beginning of the chaos in Parthenon. The three legion commanders and the two totems also killed many mages.

In any case, there needs to be a reasonable explanation for these matters to the outside world, so the trial will be extended for a long time.

However, in the end, it was just a smokescreen released by the Holy City, and the Holy Tribunal will do everything it can to rationalize Cheng Xiao's actions.

Once Cheng Xiao ascends to the Holy City, the whole truth will be revealed.

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

Cheng Xiao did not return to the Holy City immediately, but instead spent a few days with Xin Xia and Asha Ruya in Parthenon.

Parthenon Teleportation Array.

"I'll come to Parthenon to see Xinxia often," Cheng Xiao said with a smile, stroking Xinxia's hair.

Xinxia nodded her head sensibly. She knew that, bearing the soul of Parthenon, she had an inescapable responsibility.

She must firmly grasp this power in order to help Cheng Xiao.

Cheng Xiao gently pressed his hand on Xin Xia's forehead, giving her a final farewell kiss.

For some reason, this scene made Asha'ruya feel irritated, and she snorted coldly.

During this period, she was forced by Cheng Xiao to serve him along with Xin Xia quite a few times.

But Cheng Xiao's attitude towards her and Xin Xia was completely different, showing his double standards to the fullest extent.

He was full of affection for Xinxia's flirting, but he bullied her relentlessly, as if he would fail if he didn't make her cry in bed.

"Get out of here, and you'd better never come back in this lifetime," Asha'ruya said irritably, her voice filled with resentment.

"Am I really leaving?" Cheng Xiao said, turning to leave.

Asha Ruya looked at him coldly, cursing him inwardly as a scumbag.

Seeing this, Cheng Xiao stopped teasing her and prepared to give her his love before parting.

But when Asha Ruya saw Cheng Xiao walking towards her, she panicked for a moment.

There are guardian knights watching behind them; if Cheng Xiao acts recklessly...

Cheng Xiao gently hugged Asha Ruya, without doing anything out of line.

"Why are you so nervous and your heart is beating so fast? Are you thinking about something bad?" Cheng Xiao asked in a low voice on purpose.

"You stinky man." Asha Ruya snorted softly, but her fair hands honestly wrapped around Cheng Xiao.

Xinxia watched this scene and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

Cheng Xiao is still so charming, even her sister Asha Ruya is.

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

The teleportation array was activated, and the destination was naturally the Holy City.

After Cheng Xiao stepped into the formation, a figure that no one noticed also stepped into the formation.

In just a few seconds, the world before my eyes spun around.

When I opened my eyes again, I was already not far from the entrance bridge of the Holy City.

The walls of the Holy City that were damaged in the battle between him and Remiel have been completely repaired.

However, the damage caused by the Light Dragon and the Gold Quartz Lion to the area outside the Holy City, all the way to the Alpine plains, has not yet been dealt with.

There was no way around it; I went too far last time.

Cheng Xiao looked at Archangel Raguel, who was hidden in the void beside him, and couldn't help but ask:

"Do you have some kind of hobby of stalking and spying, which is why you were gifted with this ability to perfectly conceal yourself?"

"You!" Raguel frowned, her bright white eyes revealing a hint of resentment.

"I kept asking you questions, but you ignored me."

"Didn't I tell you to go back to the Holy City first, and that I would come back on my own? You did go back to the Holy City, but after a day you came back to Parthenon to come with me."

Cheng Xiao brazenly sized up the Western beauty before him:

"You're really boring, following along almost the whole time except in special circumstances."

"When I was imprisoned before, the Archangel Far was just like you."

"Are you Holy City angels all a little bit off in the head?"

Hearing Cheng Xiao's repeated disparaging remarks about the Holy City's angels, Raguel explained unhappily:

"This is our duty. To be fully focused on fulfilling our duties is a quality that every mage in the Holy City must possess."

Cheng Xiao's expression suddenly changed, and he questioned:

"As expected, you had ulterior motives for following me. Was it one of those old geezers, Remiel's, idea?"

Raguel was startled, then realized she had been tricked into revealing information. A look of panic flashed in her bright white eyes as she glanced away.

"No, no, it's not me."

"You're not very good at lying."

Cheng Xiao glanced at her again, then walked towards the bridge leading into the Holy City Palace.

Raguel stood there, stunned, watching Cheng Xiao's departing figure. Her heart raced, and her unease intensified.

It seems she's messed things up again.

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

Upon entering the holy city, Cheng Xiao wanted to first appreciate the scenery of this ancient and glorious city.

Last time I was locked up, I was constantly being watched, and I felt very restricted.

But this time, even the Holy City doesn't seem entirely at ease.

Within minutes, dozens of eyes were fixed on Cheng Xiao.

The leader of the Holy Shadow Sect was the first to come out to greet them.

"Archangel," Far said respectfully.

The look in her eyes when she looked at Cheng Xiao was not only respectful but also complicated.

The person who was previously labeled a 'suspect' has suddenly become her boss.

"What, are you spying on me again?" Cheng Xiao's tone was more playful.

Although Fal did not make things difficult for her last time, Cheng Xiao is known for her vindictiveness.

For the people of this city, no matter how small the grudge, it cannot be easily let go.

"You misunderstand. The three archangels have ordered that upon your return to the Holy City, I should immediately take you to find them," Far added.

"The three archangels, knowing you are returning to the Holy City today, have been waiting in the conference room for a long time."

"Then let them wait. I'll go see them again in three days."

Cheng Xiao walked past Fal, ignoring her shocked and puzzled gaze.

Far asked cautiously:

"Why, why?"

"Because last time, Durant made me wait three hours longer."

"."

Watching Cheng Xiao's retreating figure, Far opened her mouth slightly, but didn't know how to persuade him.

Or rather, they dared not offer advice.

A beautiful figure in a white dress walked into the holy city, but strangely, the city gate guards did not see her.

"Archangel," Far said respectfully to Raguel, who was approaching.

Raguel simply nodded to her without saying anything more.

Knowing that the archangel disliked crowds and was not fond of talking, Far didn't say much.

There was no other way but to go and report to the three archangels who were waiting in the conference room.

Last time in the temple, Cheng Xiao crippled two Holy Judges in front of her.

She vividly remembers the scene where he beat Remiel up without a word.

She couldn't bear it if Cheng Xiao vented his anger on her.
