Supreme Star Card Master

Swiftly scanning the hundreds of mutilated corpses before him, Yang Huai felt even more horrified.

“Lin Dan, Guo Xiong, Wang Kun… What the hell is going on here?!”

Yang Huai felt his whole body shiver as an extremely ominous feeling arose in his heart!

At this moment, a flash of silver light appeared in front of Yang Huai, and an exceptionally young, delicate-looking youth stood before him.

The youth had a pair of beautiful silver pupils, but his gaze was somewhat indifferent.

“As expected, you all still came to court death.” Su Yuan said coldly.

Yang Huai looked at the person in front of him, then at the corpses and the thick scent of blood on the ground. He finally understood what had happened.

He… He killed Lin Dan and all the hundreds of others?!

Yang Huai felt as if he had fallen into an ice pit. He suddenly remembered something and, with a shake of his sleeve, a talisman appeared in his hand.

However, silver chains shot out from all directions, firmly anchoring him in place. He could no longer move even a finger.

Su Yuan took the talisman from Yang Huai’s hand and casually threw it on the ground.

At this moment, Huang Xiang and Luo Bingtong, who had been searching through the corpses, walked over from a distance.

Luo Bingtong had no injuries on her body.

Huang Xiang, although seemingly covered in wounds and quite disheveled, had an astonishing recovery ability. He hadn’t suffered any fatal injuries, so he was still in decent shape.

He only felt exhausted, both physically and in terms of Star Power, and his state had somewhat declined.

Su Yuan said, “Huang Xiang, Bingtong, the people who came from outside are up to you two. If you can’t handle them, find a way to escape. Ensuring your own safety is the priority.”

“What about you?” Luo Bingtong pondered and then asked.

“There’s another group hiding up ahead. I’ll handle them, then wait for you over there.”

Luo Bingtong looked at Su Yuan for a while. It seemed she felt it wasn’t as simple as Su Yuan made it out to be, but she nonetheless nodded obediently.

Su Yuan smiled and, seeing her so compliant, couldn’t help but ruffle her hair.

Then, Su Yuan took out a pair of talismans, handing one of them to Huang Xiang.

“This talisman was found in the rings of those leaders earlier. Huang Xiang, take it. If anything unexpected happens, activate it immediately. I’ll be there at full speed.”

Huang Xiang accepted the talisman. After a brief inspection, he understood its function.

It was a two-way positioning alarm talisman. Not only could it sense the other’s location within a certain range, but it could also send an alert to the other when needed.

Huang Xiang grinned, “Don’t worry, boss, leave it to us.”

Huang Xiang knew that there were over a hundred people outside. In his current state, dealing with them alone would be almost impossible.

But with Luo Bingtong… Thinking about the power she had just displayed, Huang Xiang felt secretly astounded.

In that case, it shouldn’t be too difficult to handle.

In any case, even if they couldn’t win, he just had to ensure Luo Bingtong’s safety!

Luo Bingtong and Huang Xiang set off for the outskirts of Ming Mountain.

“Over a hundred people, two or three dozen at the Gold Level… Based on the strength Bingtong just exhibited, along with the unused Ten Thousand Transformation Xuan Ice, dealing with this group shouldn’t be hard.”

Su Yuan thought for a moment, then nodded slightly. With the talisman in hand, if anything unexpected happened, he would immediately know.

Turning his head to look at Yang Huai, who was locked in place by the Sky Lock, Su Yuan’s fingertip ignited a flame, and a Steel Flame Finger pierced Yang Huai’s brow.

Su Yuan put away the Sky Lock, then turned around, silver light flickering in his eyes as he gazed into the depths of the forest.

“You really kept me waiting…”

Su Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his figure blurred as he swiftly used Instant Teleportation towards the depths.

Silver light flashed repeatedly. After a while, Su Yuan appeared in a clearing deep within the mountain.

Suddenly, Su Yuan halted, and two people were already standing quietly in front of him.

One was an old man with a hunched figure, leaning on a black ram-headed staff. Beside him was a young man in green robes with a sinister smile.

“As expected, the one admired by both Lord Qin and the Sky Patrol Imperial Envoy. You sensed our presence from so far away?” The old man’s dry, unpleasant voice echoed.

Su Yuan looked at the two, his expression cold, “If I recall correctly, you should be from the side near Yanluo Country, right? Blocking my path here, have you forgotten Lord Qin and Xiao Imperial Envoy’s warning?”

Su Yuan had seen these two at the Sky Dragon Palace before.

If memory served, they were two Shining Star Level experts from Netherworld Mountain, north of Yanluo Country.

The old man was called Black Mountain Elder; the other was Guo Feng. Both had obtained Green Carp Talismans in the Transcendence Domain.

Black Mountain Elder said, “Blame it on yourself for obtaining such great items. A Golden Carp Talisman could fetch an Epic Star Artifact…”

The exchange list in the Dragon Gate Treasure Hall included Epic Star Artifacts. If available, they could likely be exchanged.

And if anyone had the best chance to exchange for one… It would be Su Yuan, who had obtained the Golden Carp Talisman through the Transcendence Domain.

Guo Feng sneered, “Warning? The Dragon Sect is expanding. Qin Xiangyang has many matters to attend to. How could he care about others in the short term?

As for the Sky Patrol Department… After this, we plan to head north. Can the Sky Patrol Department manage that far north?

For an Epic Star Artifact, it’s worth our effort.”

Su Yuan responded, “I need a Condensed Liquid Pill. I didn’t exchange for an Epic Star Artifact.”

Guo Feng dismissed this with a sneer, “How could that be possible? Forgoing an Epic Star Artifact? Do you think we’re that easily deceived?”

Guo Feng naturally didn’t believe it. The value difference between a Condensed Liquid Pill and an Epic Star Artifact was immense.

With Su Yuan so young and already at the Gold Limit, he would sooner or later reach Shining Star Level. An Epic Star Artifact would significantly enhance his strength—why wouldn’t he exchange for it?

Seeing this, Su Yuan shook his head slightly, “Arguing is pointless. It seems I’ll have to break through with my own hands.”

Realm Cultivation was fundamental. Star Artifacts and such were external.

For Su Yuan, once his realm was raised, obtaining an Epic Star Artifact wouldn’t be difficult.

The breakthrough time saved by the Condensed Liquid Pill was permanent.

Of course, Guo Feng and Black Mountain Elder, whose lives capped at Shining Star Level, wouldn’t understand this.

“Break through with your own hands?”

Hearing this, Guo Feng seemed to have heard something incredibly amusing and couldn’t help but sneer.

“I was curious why you, knowing we were here, didn’t detour but instead sent your friends away and came alone…

I thought you handed the Epic Star Artifact to them for safekeeping. Judging by your words… you plan to face us alone?”

Guo Feng scrutinized Su Yuan from top to bottom and then sneered.

“What gives you such confidence? Do you expect Qin Xiangyang or the Sky Patrol Imperial Envoy to rush from Dragon Gate City to save your life?

Stop dreaming. Not to mention the distance to Dragon Gate City, they wouldn’t make it in time.

Besides, we already set up isolation magic. Dragon Gate is too far to notice anything!”

“My life has never depended on others to save…”

Su Yuan chuckled. With his left hand clutching his chest, his black robe rustled without wind, followed by an indescribable surge of startling energy from within.

“But on myself!”

As he spoke, a torrent of dark, malevolent flames burst from Su Yuan, rising tens of meters high. The sinister flames roared, and Star Power surged, transforming into a towering giant of Dark Fire in moments!

The overwhelming, terrifying aura and the destructive energy wave caused Guo Feng and Black Mountain Elder to feel uncontrollable dread!

“This… What kind of Outer Path Avatar is this?!”
