Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1560: Chapter 1236: Agreement Reached (Part 2)

The tone was serious and full of experience, yet the voice and face appeared exceptionally youthful, making it somewhat amusing and cute.

Upon hearing this, Alpha and Raymond’s eyes immediately lit up with a gleam.

’Royal Envoy Su, such impressive tactics!’ Alpha looked at Su Yuan beside him, secretly admiring him.

Although he did not know the exact outcome of that battle, the fact that Su Yuan managed to make Lael support the alliance meant he most likely stood his ground or even defeated Lael!

One should know that this Lord Lael had defeated the previous generation Holy Temple leader, a seasoned King Level.

Raymond also laughed heartily and said to Su Yuan, ”Well done, Royal Envoy Su! There aren’t many who can change the old man’s mind, but I, Raymond, am impressed by you!”

With Lael’s announcement of support for the alliance, the few people present were now allies on the same front, naturally drawing their relationships closer.

They sat down, had a long conversation, and before they knew it, night had fallen.

”Royal Envoy Su, until we meet again.”

Alpha spoke to bid farewell, preparing to return to the Holy Temple immediately.

Lael also left with Raymond, needing to return to reshape two bodies.

For a moment, the suite returned to its original tranquility, leaving only Su Yuan and Ashley quietly tidying up the room.

Su Yuan sat by the table, pondering to himself.

This journey to Qiguang, though with some twists, eventually succeeded in ”persuading” the Five Great Families to support the alliance of the two nations.

Now, the teachers and students of Great Flame should be at the final dinner, with exchanges coming to an end; they will set off back home tomorrow.

Today, not only did he have a battle with Lael, but he also faced Constantin beforehand.

”Constantin...”

Su Yuan’s eyes flickered slightly as an evil-scented token appeared in his palm with a flip of his hand.

”Could it be the Demon Decree, allowing one to be treated with the courtesy of a master and issue a compulsory command once?”

Su Yuan rubbed the Demon Decree in his hand, slightly raising his eyes to look at Ashley, who was busy wiping the bar counter with her back to him.

The silver-white hair casually draped over her slender waist and back, with her long, straight legs wrapped in black stockings under a dark red plaid skirt. Her small feet gave off a faintly sultry scent with each friction against the carpet...

Su Yuan shook his head, suppressing the sudden heat in his mood, and called out, ”Ashley, come over here for a moment.”

Ashley heard the words and turned around, walking up to Su Yuan, ”Boss, are you going to reward me?”

Ashley gazed at Su Yuan with eyes like rubies, serene and mysterious, seemingly possessing astonishing allure...

Su Yuan, somewhat surprised, said, ”Hmm? Did you predict that?”

According to Su Yuan’s orders, except for coming and going, he prohibited Ashley from predicting those messy things related to him under normal circumstances.

This girl looked like a noble lady but sometimes was a bit... well, hard to describe.

Ashley clasped her hands in front, shook her head, and smiled, ”No prediction, just a guess.”

”You guessed quite right,” Su Yuan nodded with a smile, placing the Demon Decree on the table, ”You contributed significantly this time; I’ll leave this item to you.”

Her efforts also played a role in Su Yuan’s victory over Constantin in the Descent God Game.

Alpha mentioned that games of demons often have certain traps. Although Ashley didn’t immediately predict that the trap was Su Yuan’s inability to descend personally, she quickly predicted that the trap had little impact on Su Yuan.

This allowed Su Yuan to dare to risk himself and decisively join the game to engage with Constantin.

At this moment, looking at the Demon Decree on the table, Ashley immediately sensed a bit of Constantin’s aura from it. Upon picking it up and making a brief inspection, she understood its function.

”Constantin... this stuff is really quite something~” Ashley slightly curled her lips, holding the Demon Decree, she gave a slight bow to Su Yuan, ”I like it very much, thank you, boss. I’ll use it at a critical moment.”

”Glad you like it.”

Su Yuan nodded slightly, not paying particular attention to the Demon Decree, as it wouldn’t be of much use unless Constantin broke through the Ninth Stage.

Rather, when meeting Ashley again, Constantin, who once led the Holy Plan and manipulated others’ life and death at will, would have to regard her with the respect of a master, which seemed to be an amusing scenario...

Thinking of this, a trace of a smile involuntarily appeared in Su Yuan’s eyes.

”So, boss, do you need me to repay you in any way?”

Just then, Youyou’s voice suddenly came from his side, causing Su Yuan to shift slightly, only to see Ashley bending over close to him...

Strands of silver-white hair fell on Su Yuan’s chest, with a faint lemon-like fragrance gently entering his nose.

Amidst the night and the lights, Ashley’s mysteriously tranquil aura had an indescribable unique charm.

Su Yuan’s gaze traveled from Ashley’s delicate face down to the contours faintly visible through her lowered neckline, and further down to the absolute territory wrapped in black stockings beneath her short skirt...

Su Yuan felt increasingly feverish in his heart, stood up, and grabbed Ashley. The next moment...

”Snap!”

A crisp sound echoed in the room.

Ashley held her stinging bottom, her ruby-like pupils trembling incessantly.

”The return is to tidy up the room.”

With these words left behind, Su Yuan flashed in silver light and swiftly entered the Qingming Realm.

In the empty room, Ashley felt the pain from the slap, yet a peculiar flush of excitement gradually surfaced on her face...

Inside the Qingming Realm.

Luo Bingtong, Hua Tiandu, and the others saw Su Yuan was unharmed and were completely relieved.

Earlier, everyone sensed the fluctuation of the Divine Absolute Sword and knew that Lord Lael was indeed a formidable opponent, making them quite worried.

Fortunately, after the battle, the Qingming Realm remained stable, evidently proving that Su Yuan emerged victorious.

After meeting with everyone, Su Yuan finally called Yang Aoshan alone and took out the golden box given by Lael: ”For you.”

”It seems very precious?”

Yang Aoshan caressed the golden box, slowly opened it, and the next moment, the overflowing starlight illuminated the great hall.

”So, so beautiful...”

Yang Aoshan was instantly captivated by the deep blue gemstone pendant within.

Women often have little resistance to beautiful things, and the Star Guardian, shining like the stars in the sky, immediately caught Yang Aoshan’s eye.

And upon regaining her senses and carefully examining this Star Device, her eyes suddenly widened: ”This is... a Holy Artifact?!”

Su Yuan said, ”This is a Legendary Holy Artifact given by the Five Great Families, called Star Guardian. Use it to set up the Celestial Star Battle Array.”

”The Five Great Families?” Yang Aoshan immediately thought of something and asked Su Yuan with a serious voice, ”Su Yuan, in your earlier battle with that Ninth Stage Family Head, did this treasure have anything to do with it?”

Su Yuan knew what Yang Aoshan was thinking and shook his head with a smile: ”Whether or not I had this item, I would have fought for the task of this trip.”

Yang Aoshan, intelligent as she is, knew well that gains often come with sacrifices.

The fact that the Five Great Families were willing to offer a Holy Artifact meant that Su Yuan must have faced considerable challenges or risks in the process.

Seeing Su Yuan comforting her like this, Yang Aoshan felt both touched and grateful, yet also somewhat powerless...

Su Yuan had continuously found top-tier Array Maps and Legendary Holy Artifacts for her, but she, aside from once leading the Array Hall and assisting the development of Qingming Palace, seemed increasingly unable to offer him much help...

’No matter what, I’ll first set up the Celestial Star Battle Array!’

Yang Aoshan tightly held the Star Guardian, secretly determined that with this top-notch array, she might be able to contribute something!

Su Yuan looked at the suddenly absent-minded Yang Aoshan: ”What are you thinking about?”

”N-no, nothing...” Yang Aoshan came back to her senses, shook her head, and smiled, ”I’m just so happy. Thank you, Su Yuan...”

Looking at Su Yuan in front of her, Yang Aoshan slightly tiptoed, lifted her head, and lightly pecked Su Yuan’s lips, then some slight shyness washed over her eyes, and she intended to retreat.

But just then, a large hand suddenly embraced her.

”Su Yuan...?” Yang Aoshan was startled.

”Come to me, and you think you can just leave like that?”

Looking at the elegantly standing, youthful yet slightly mature Yang Aoshan, Su Yuan felt a rising warmth rekindled by Ashley earlier.

”Perfect timing, Ao Shan. Why don’t you stay here today and see if there are any issues with setting up the Celestial Star Battle Array~”

Before the words were finished, another large hand had already descended on Yang Aoshan’s delicate body, moving wantonly.

Yang Aoshan’s face instantly flushed like fire, and the previous scene flashed in her mind, her breathing became more rapid, and her body softened instantly...

”Mmm... G-gently...”
