Supreme Star Card Master

"Done!"

Captain Feng and Li Daoxun held the Pulse Drawing Beads and approached Su Yuan. Within the two Pulse Drawing Beads, wolf-like shapes faintly appeared as the star veins surged.

"Good." Su Yuan nodded. After a brief thought, he said, "Rest here for a while."

"Yes!"

Su Yuan's figure shimmered and instantly teleported away.

"Su Xing Lord, truly extraordinary in strength..." Watching Su Yuan's figure disappear, Captain Feng couldn't help but exclaim, "I never thought it was possible to extract two wolf veins in such a way!

It feels... so damn thrilling and exciting!"

Captain Feng laughed heartily. If he had known about Su Yuan's strength beforehand, it might not have been as thrilling.

The experience now was just right!

Li Daoxun also secretly admired. He had once thought that he might stand a chance against Su Yuan in battle.

But seeing Su Yuan's moves today, he realized all those possible victories and strategies were doomed to fail!

Facing this person, he was no match!

...

On the other side, Su Yuan arrived alone at the foot of a snow mountain and summoned Ruan Ruan and Antonios.

"Master."

"Boss." Antonios politely referred to Su Yuan as Boss.

Su Yuan nodded, lifted his hand, and took out three or four Blue Crystals.

One of them contained a wolf vein from Brooke of Rhein, while the rest were empty.

Su Yuan sent the Blue Crystal with the wolf vein into Qingming Realm and handed two more crystals to Antonios.

"Antonios, as discussed earlier, take Ruan Ruan and Mo Fei to find Void Gold and wolf veins.

If you find Void Gold and can take it, do so. If not, inform me using the Primordial Spirit Projection Barrier."

"No problem."

After some thought, Su Yuan reminded, "Remember, prioritize Void Gold. Wolf veins are currently the main contested treasures among the various forces here. If you encounter powerful experts, it could be troublesome. Don't force it."

Ordinary experts were manageable, but if they encountered star envoys or other formidable subordinates, Su Yuan was concerned for Ruan Ruan's safety.

Antonios replied, "Understood."

Su Yuan pinched Ruan Ruan's cheek, "Stay safe and take care of yourself."

"Don't worry, Master!" Ruan Ruan giggled, patting her still-developing chest. "Ruan Ruan will complete the task and find Void Gold!"

Su Yuan smiled, "Alright, go ahead."

Ruan Ruan and Antonios were acquaintances, so there was no awkwardness.

After responding, the two of them swiftly departed.

Su Yuan returned to his original spot.

"Su Xing Lord!" Seeing Su Yuan return, Captain Feng and Li Daoxun immediately greeted him.

Although curious about what Su Yuan had done, they knew it wasn't their place to ask.

Su Yuan smiled, "If you're ready, let's return."

As he spoke, Su Yuan reopened the Space Gate and led the two back to the base...

"Su Xing Lord, Captain Feng!"

As Su Yuan and the others returned, news of successfully bringing back two wolf veins spread, startling the entire camp.

"Captain Wang, are there really two wolf veins?" On the edge of the camp, soldiers were excitedly discussing.

Leading them, Lieutenant Wang said, "Yes! According to Captain Liu, the western area had a pair of twin wolf veins, which we retrieved entirely!"

A young lieutenant exclaimed, "Considering the round trip, this took only about three days to bring back two wolf veins? Amazing, truly worthy of the Sky Patrol Department's star lord!"

Lieutenant Wang smiled and whispered, "That's not even the most impressive part. It's said that Su Xing Lord alone killed nearly a hundred Shining Stars from Black Snow, Rhein, and Wusa!"

"What?!"

"Impossible!"

"You're joking, Captain Wang!"

The soldiers exclaimed in shock, their eyes filled with astonishment.

That seemingly ordinary young star lord had such terrifying strength?

"Keep your voices down! Even if it's not badmouthing, it's not good if Su Xing Lord and Captain Feng hear!"

...

The situation in the west regarding the twin star veins quickly spread through the camp.

Because of this, Su Yuan gained immense respect from both military personnel like Captain Feng and Li Daoxun at the 4th base.

This was one reason Su Yuan took them along.

Having just taken his position, he needed to showcase his abilities to prevent anyone from defying his orders at critical moments.

A few days later, Fu Dongliu and Baili Ge returned with wolf veins.

Though they looked a bit disheveled, they weren't seriously injured.

Additionally, they brought back Level 4 material: Burial Mud.

In just a few days, they had secured three wolf veins. The 4th base had only gathered three wolf veins in its entire existence!

As time passed, the Sky Patrol Department dispatched more second and third-level special envoys to assist in searching for star veins and materials.

After all, exploring certain dangerous areas required experts.

As for Su Yuan, after leaving a Transmission Decree in the camp, he led a team to search the area around the base.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed. Another two wolf veins were found, but there was still no sign of Void Gold.

Ruan Ruan and Antonios reported regularly via the Primordial Spirit Projection Barrier, but had no new discoveries.

This wasn't something to rush. With his current important position, Su Yuan focused on immediate tasks.

Searching for the tiger vein would come later. It was unclear how long the New Dust Realm entrance would last after its birth...

Though he couldn't borrow the Grandmaster Level Array Dao Secret Scroll for study, he could still cultivate calmly.

Recently, as Qingming Realm absorbed star veins and he used its power in battles, Su Yuan became more adept in using the Heavenly Throne.

Lately, he had some insights into developing the Power of Soul, which he intended to study...

At the 1st base, a figure descended from the sky, revealing a short-haired woman in a star robe.

Slender and wearing a purple butterfly hairpin, she was the sole female among the original seven star lords—

Star Lord Tianji, Shen Die.

"How's it going?" Li Ba, who had been waiting, quickly asked.

Shen Die nodded solemnly, "It's all set. We've found a place where a star vein is about to be born. Adding two wolf veins through the barrier, it will definitely draw out star envoys when it erupts.

Combining with Hao Yi Grandmaster's barrier, we can instantly transfer them eighty-six thousand miles away."

"Great!" Li Ba's eyes brightened, then turned fierce. "When do we strike? Last time, they killed Duanmu Lu. This time, I'll take down one or two star envoys!"

"Not yet. We need to inform the other three star lords."

"The other three?"

Li Ba frowned. The other three newly promoted star lords were first-level special envoys, making him somewhat dismissive.

Shen Die said, "To avoid unexpected situations, someone needs to intercept and delay. Star Lord Su from the Northwest 4th base and Star Lord Wu from the East 3rd base will block potential reinforcements from Qiguang Base.

Lord Xia from the South 2nd base will join us in ambushing the transferred star envoys!

According to my reconnaissance, they have only three or four people along the southern line. This arrangement should work."

Li Ba restrained his emotions slightly.

Though not the brightest, Li Ba wasn't foolish. He realized Shen Die's plan was the most strategic.

The failure to support Duanmu Lu's death filled Li Ba with guilt.

Gritting his teeth, Li Ba nodded. "Fine, notify them quickly to avoid any changes."

"Okay."

...

At the 4th base.

Su Yuan was meditating when he received an urgent message.

Given the guard post barrier's connection, communication between the four bases was seamless.

Su Yuan flipped out the Sky Patrol Black Card. After checking, he narrowed his eyes.

"Oh? Finally taking the initiative?"

It was a message from Shen Die. After careful reading, Su Yuan called for Li Daoxun.

"Su Xing Lord." Li Daoxun arrived, handing over a sealed wooden box. "This came through the Transmission Barrier from the 1st base."

Su Yuan took the box, unsealed it with his Black Card, and opened it to find a talisman inside.

"A talisman for retreat after intercepting star envoys..."

According to Shen Die's message, this talisman was for retreating if the situation became unfavorable after intercepting.

Su Yuan told Li Daoxun, "I'll be away for a few days. You're in charge of the camp. If anything unexpected happens, use the emergency signal to contact me."

"Yes!" Considering the box, Li Daoxun guessed it was for some operation but didn't ask further.

After some thought, Su Yuan opened a Space Gate with a wave and stepped through, appearing a hundred kilometers away.

With a gesture, Su Yuan summoned Mo Fei, mounted him, and gazed north, eyes gleaming coldly.

This time's plan was to ambush star envoys.

There were twelve star envoys but only seven star lords.

Even without anyone replacing Capricorn, there were still eleven star envoys.

Numerically, star envoys held an advantage.

Aside from those on Blue Sea Star with other tasks, Shen Die's reconnaissance showed six star envoys in the New Dust Realm.

Initially, Taurus, Aries, and Virgo;

After Capricorn's death, Leo returned;

Plus, the newly arrived Scorpio and Aquarius!

A total of six!

More star envoys might appear during the tiger vein contest.

Facing more star envoys would place Great Flame at a disadvantage.

Given the top-tier combat prowess of star lords and envoys, even tenfold or hundredfold numbers couldn't match them.

Great Flame had to act preemptively.

Hence, the plan, meticulously arranged by Shen Die after thorough reconnaissance, to the north, to lure and transfer the enemy, and then overwhelming their forces to assassinate at least one star envoy before retreating.

From Shen Die's scouting, near the south were Virgo, Scorpio, and—

Leo, who once surrounded and killed Duanmu Lu!

Su Yuan's task was to intercept star envoys from the west.

Shen Die's findings indicated the western base's star envoy was—

"Virgo... what a coincidence."

Su Yuan's eyes glinted coldly. He had defeated Virgo before, and now another Virgo had appeared.

The first generation Virgo's Radiant Moon Fusion Beast wasn't skilled enough, limiting its strength.

Su Yuan was curious about the abilities of this new Virgo.

"Mo Fei, head north." Su Yuan instructed.

"Roar!"

Mo Fei responded in a low growl, then swiftly shadowed north...
