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

Chapter 18: The Coming-of-Age Ceremony Begins, Four Big Treasure Chests

Mu Ningxue wiped the dirt off her face in a daze, then fled to the bathroom.

“The road ahead is long and arduous”

Zhou Haoyu raised the corner of his mouth. This kind of thing has to be done step by step.

Now that this step has been accepted, is the next step far behind?

After feeling refreshed, Zhou Haoyu began to think about his next plan.

"I have definitely alerted Mu He now. I must be careful from now on."

Zhou Haoyu looked solemn. In his eyes, Mu Yuang was not worth mentioning. The person who needed the most attention was Mu He, the little boss.

Zhou Haoyu wasn't too worried about a head-on confrontation, but Mu He was a curse-type cultivator, making it hard to defend against him.

However, Bo City is just a testing ground, and Mu He should not act rashly. At most, he will send some people in black and gray to assassinate him.

Compared to Mu He, Zhou Haoyu felt that Mu Yuang was more likely to attack him.

If there was a suitable opportunity, Zhou Haoyu would like to get rid of Mu Yuang during the disaster in Bo City.

If Mu Yuang was killed, Mu Zhuoyun would only think that he died in a disaster, and the Inquisition would not investigate a dead member of the Black Church.

No matter which world it is, a large part of the population likes to vent their anger on the relatives of the murderer.

This is unavoidable. Some people do need an outlet, but more people just follow the trend and type on their keyboards.

Before anything happens, Zhou Haoyu must make as much preparation as possible.

As for Mu He, Zhou Haoyu has no intention of killing him yet for two reasons.

Mu He is, after all, a high-level wizard who specializes in curses. If they really have to face each other, relying solely on mental power will not be enough.

The most important thing is that once Mu He is killed, it means that there will be a fight to the death with the Black Church.

Mu Yuang was just a small fry, and played no role at all after the disaster in Bo City, so he could be killed, but Mu He was the Grand Deacon of Hujin.

If Mu He is killed, it will inevitably affect the Black Church's plans in the ancient capital, and will undoubtedly cause the Black Church's crazy revenge.

Therefore, if he wanted to kill Mu He, he could only do so in the ancient capital, otherwise even his own family would be implicated.

The next day.

"My dear nephew, I need to entertain a few people. How about you and Ning Xue come with us?"

Early in the morning, Mu Zhuoyun brought Mu Yuang to the door.

Today is Mu Yuang's coming-of-age ceremony, and the most important thing is that there is a magic duel in the morning, which is related to the opportunity to enter the Holy Spring for training.

In order to highlight the status of the Mu family, Mu Zhuoyun specially invited all the important figures in Bo City to a banquet.

However, compared with Zhou Haoyu, these people are not big shots at all.

Mu Zhuoyun specially came to invite Zhou Haoyu early in the morning, actually just to save his own face.

"I have nothing to do, so I'll go with my uncle to take a look."

Zhou Haoyu was worrying about how to meet these people, but unexpectedly, a pillow came to him when he was sleepy. He took this opportunity to take a look at the new treasure chest.

Although Mu Ningxue was not interested in these things, she had no choice but to go with Zhou Haoyu for the sake of her father's reputation.

When they arrived at the gate, the servants in the manor had already lined up in two rows, lining up to welcome the incoming guests.

"Principal Zhu, I didn't expect you to arrive first."

When Mu Zhuoyun saw a middle-aged man appear, he immediately went to greet him with a big laugh.

Principal Zhu's face was grim. Mo Fan was a student at Tianlan High School, and to be honest, he wasn't very confident about his magic duel with Mu Yuang today. Zhou Haoyu looked at the large treasure chests in front of him, his lips curled up slightly.

[Unlocking conditions: Survive the Bo City disaster.]

This is Principal Zhu’s treasure chest.

[Unlocking conditions: Save He Yu.]

This is a treasure chest of a skinny student, and it turns out to be Mo Fan’s good brother Zhang Xiaohou.

[Unlocking conditions: Ensure that they do not fall into the dark plane within five years.]

This is a treasure chest of a handsome student, I think it should be the green tea boy Mu Bai.

[Unlocking conditions: Kill twenty members of the Black Church.]

Zhou Haoyu's gaze suddenly stopped on a black-haired student. The conditions for unlocking the system were actually related to the Black Church.

In the original novel, Xu Zhaoting died at the hands of the Black Church, so this black-haired student is most likely Xu Zhaoting.

Seeing these four treasure chests, Zhou Haoyu couldn't help but feel fortunate. If he hadn't come to Bo City, two of the treasure chests would probably have been lost.

Principal Zhu died in this catastrophe, and with his death the treasure chest disappeared.

As for Zhang Xiaohou's treasure chest, Zhou Haoyu was not sure whether the opening conditions would be refreshed after He Yu's death.

In general, these two opening conditions are not very difficult, so try to open these two treasure chests first.

"Principal Zhu, let me introduce you to Mr. Zhou Haoyu from the Zhou family in the imperial capital."

"He is a student at the Imperial Capital Academy, just like Ning Xue. He was already a mid-level mage last year."

Mu Zhuoyun deliberately pulled Principal Zhu in front of Zhou Haoyu and introduced him with a hint of pride.

"Intermediate. Last year?!"

Principal Zhu and the students behind him widened their eyes. This man looked only about eighteen or nineteen years old. Doesn't that mean he was already at the intermediate level at the age of seventeen?

This is too outrageous!
"The Imperial Capital Academy is truly a gathering place of geniuses."

Principal Zhu sighed with emotion. He was quite knowledgeable and knew very well that among the aristocratic families, there were very few who could cultivate to the middle level at the age of seventeen.

To be able to enter the Imperial Capital Academy at such a young age, he must have some powerful talent.

"Principal Zhu, can I come to your school for exchanges and learning in the next few days?" Zhou Haoyu took the initiative to talk.

After hearing this, Principal Zhu frowned slightly and muttered to himself, what is there to communicate and learn from a genius like you?
"Mu Bai, this guy is not planning to find an opportunity to humiliate us, right?" Zhao Kunsan looked at Mu Bai beside him and said.

In Zhao Kunsan's opinion, there was nothing worth learning from these little second-level beginner mages like them for the top students of the Imperial Capital Academy.

"That shouldn't be the case." Mu Bai couldn't figure out this person's intentions, and he always felt that this person was looking at him.

"Mr. Zhou, the magic college entrance exam is approaching, so it's better not to disturb them from concentrating on their training."

Principal Zhu spoke very tactfully. He didn't want to offend a young man from a noble family in the imperial capital.

"Unfortunately, the magic college entrance examination is only a few days away. I wanted to lend you the soul-level stardust magic weapon for a few days." Zhou Haoyu shook his head and said helplessly.

All three of his systems are now at the intermediate level, and the Stardust Magical Artifact is temporarily useless, so it won't be a problem to lend it to them for a few days of training.

"Soul-level Stardust Magical Weapon!"

Everyone's jaws almost dropped to the ground. They usually found it difficult to use even a mortal-level Stardust magic weapon, and had almost never seen a spiritual-level Stardust magic weapon, let alone a soul-level one.

Mu Yuang, who was standing behind Mu Zhuoyun, had a glint of madness in his eyes. If he could get this soul-level stardust magic weapon, it wouldn't take him long to break through to the intermediate level.
