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

Chapter 82 Zhou Haoyu's determination to break with the Mu family
Zhou family.

As soon as Zhou Haoyu returned to the family, he was surrounded by his grandfather and a group of people.

"Great, great! Our Zhou family has truly produced a unicorn!"

Zhou Xian patted Zhou Haoyu's shoulders with both hands and said happily.

Before going to the ancient capital, Zhou Haoyu was extremely talented and had made outstanding contributions to Suzhou and Hangzhou.

He is already considered a leader of the younger generation, otherwise the authorities would not have selected Zhou Haoyu as the captain of the national team.

But compared with Zhou Haoyu's contributions to the ancient capital, these are nothing.

Millions of lives in the ancient capital!
With just a little publicity, Zhou Haoyu can definitely go down in history!
Zhou Haoyu waited until his grandfather calmed down a bit before asking, "Grandpa, I heard that my father-in-law and his family were kicked out of the Mu family. Is that true?"

Before leaving the ancient capital, Zhou Haoyu thought about secretly going to the prison to get rid of Mu He.

As long as he wears the armor, no one will know that it was him who did it.

However, when Zhou Haoyu went to the prison, he found that Mu He had committed suicide.

It is likely that he did not want to cause trouble to Saran, so he just died. This shows that he is really loyal to Saran.

Or really brainwashed.

The only thing that made Zhou Haoyu feel sorry was that the treasure chest disappeared with his death.

"Xiao Yu, don't blame us for not remembering our old friendship. This matter involves too many things, and the family can only provide them with assistance secretly."

Zhou Xian's face was full of helplessness. As the head of the family, he had to consider the entire family.

Zhou Haoyu also understood this.

Although the Zhou family has been promoted to the level of a first-class family, it is still nothing compared to a behemoth like the Mu family.

Even the Mu family needs to protect their own reputation, let alone the Zhou family who are their in-laws.

The Zhou family did not choose to cancel the engagement directly, entirely out of consideration for Zhou Haoyu's face.

"Xiao Yu, you are now a great hero of the ancient capital. You have two paths before you. One is to give up Mu Ningxue, and your future will be bright."

"The second option is to help the Mu family. With your current reputation, it's not difficult to help the Mu family out of their predicament, but you might be dragged into the quagmire."

As a father, Zhou Hong taught seriously.

The impact of online public opinion is so great that it is even enough to force the speaker of the parliament to step down.

Zhou Haoyu naturally knew all this.

In fact, Zhou Haoyu had made his choice a long time ago.

If it weren't for helping Mu Ningxue, he wouldn't have chosen to take the risk of going to the ancient capital.

Although we experienced many dangers, we also gained a lot.

He opened a total of four treasure chests in the ancient capital and became the new ancient king.

With the armor on, Zhou Haoyu now has no worries at all.

He used to plan three steps before taking one step, but now he has the confidence to handle everything!

"Grandpa, Dad, I think this is an opportunity." Zhou Haoyu said very seriously.

When these words were spoken, Zhou Xian, Zhou Hong and a group of elders were stunned.

"Before this, our Zhou family and the Mu family were barely relatives, right?"

Everyone nodded.

"Since we mined the B-level fire vein, the Mu family has interfered several times. They clearly have plans for this fire vein. We can take this opportunity to cut ties with them."

Zhou Haoyu spoke in a serious tone to show his firm attitude.

With the armor in hand, if the Mu family really dared to make some small moves, Zhou Haoyu would not mind sending them into the coffin early with the Mu family's forbidden spell.

The Mu clan had two forbidden spell mages, and Zhou Haoyu had some impression of the Ice Emperor Mu Rong. A puppet who succumbed to the Emperor of the Extreme South!
He will kill this person!
"Are you kidding me? Aren't you afraid of angering the Mu family?"

A middle-aged man with a somewhat bloated figure said with a frown.

Zhou Haoyu glanced at him. This man was his third uncle, the father of his cousin Zhou Youhong.

At this time, Zhou Hongyun said calmly, "Third brother, I remember you seemed to be very close to an elder of the Mu family."

"Ok?"

When Zhou Xian heard this, a look of displeasure immediately appeared on his face.

The middle-aged man waved his hands repeatedly and hurriedly explained, "Father, Big Brother, what I talked about with him were all private matters, and it definitely did not involve mission transactions!"

"There is no best."

Zhou Xian snorted, then looked at Zhou Haoyu and said, "Most of the industries in the imperial capital are involved in the Mu family. If we fall out with the Mu family, the losses will be immeasurable."

The Mu family is a dominant force in China, and an unshakable local tyrant in the imperial capital.

Once you offend the Mu family, you basically can't gain a foothold in the imperial capital and will definitely be suppressed from all sides.

"Don't worry about business."

Zhou Haoyu remained calm and composed, then continued, "The ancient capital is in need of reconstruction. I've already discussed this with the head of the Li family, and he's willing to enter into a long-term partnership with us."

Now that the outer city of the ancient capital needs to be rebuilt, the demand is naturally higher.

The Zhou family now has a B-level fire vein, and they only need to find a way to sell it to support the entire family.

The Li family in the ancient capital is just right.

In fact, there is a better choice, that is Zhao.

But if he cooperated with Zhao, it would feel like he had found a new backer, so he was ruled out.

"The Li family in the ancient capital is indeed a very good choice." Zhou Hong agreed.

The Li family is the number one family in the ancient capital, and its foundation is extremely strong, which cannot be compared with the Zhou family.

"Well, whatever you want to do, grandpa will support you." Zhou Xian said.

Zhou Xian had already identified Zhou Haoyu as his successor, and what Zhou Haoyu said made sense.

If we continue to rely on the Mu family, the final outcome will definitely not be good.

"By the way, Grandpa, this is for you."

Zhou Haoyu took out the thousand-year-old willow wood heart he got from the treasure chest and handed it to Zhou Xian.

"What is this?" Zhou Xian asked with a puzzled look.

"I found this in an ancient royal tomb. According to records, if you simply ingest the essence of the liquid inside, your cultivation level will increase significantly."

Zhou Haoyu thought about keeping the thousand-year-old willow heart for his own use, but after careful consideration, he decided that it would be most appropriate to give it to his grandfather.

The energy of this thousand-year-old willow wood heart is extremely huge, and it is definitely not something that a high-level magician like him can absorb.

If Grandpa can use this opportunity to greatly improve his cultivation, then the family won't need him to worry too much.

Zhou Xian frowned, he could feel the tremendous energy contained in the heart of this thousand-year-old willow tree.

It’s equivalent to the energy of seven or eight Star Sea Veins!
"Or, you can save this for later use."

Zhou Xian was somewhat reluctant to consume such a rare treasure, as he felt it was a bit of a waste to consume it on himself.

"Grandpa, this thing can only be kept for a week after it is taken away, otherwise the energy will gradually be lost."

Seeing this, Zhou Haoyu could only lie.

Hearing this, Zhou Xian said nothing more and carefully put away the thousand-year-old willow wood heart.
