Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 868: Chapter 675: Special A

To the north, in a certain grand hall of the Qiguang Holy Hall, which was adorned with a purple moon.

Under the dim lights and amidst the lingering music, a tall man with an alluringly wicked appearance was lounging comfortably on a large sofa made from genuine Star Beast leather.

Beside him, three beautiful women kneeled, massaging and attending to him meticulously.

These women were far from ordinary; among them were a popular talent from the Imperial Royal Academy, a lady from a famous family, and a woman of influence within a wealthy consortium.

Each of the three had unique traits and countless admirers in Qiguang.

Yet at this moment, dressed alluringly, they endeavored to please the man on the sofa.

Just then, the door suddenly opened.

A black-haired woman in a suit and glasses stepped inside, unfazed by the enchanting scene, as if accustomed to it.

Seeing this, Gareth sat up, his hands behind his head in feigned reluctance as he leaned back on the leather sofa, saying, ”Betty, you really know how to pick your timing~”

Betty glanced at the three beauties at the side and calmly said, ”Lord Gareth, there is a high-priority target from above.”

”A high-priority target...” Gareth’s eyes slightly narrowed as he snapped his fingers to stop the music and said to the three women, ”Off you go, puppies.”

”Yes, Lord Gareth.”

The three obediently acknowledged, then stood up and left after giving Betty a glance.

They knew well that when Gareth had official matters, no disturbances were tolerated.

For Gareth was one of the seven Moon Knights selected from the Heresy Court, known as the Nightmare Purple Moon.

Among the seven months, he was the most adept at assassination.

Gareth took the information Betty handed over and began to browse through it attentively.

[Target: Su Yuan]

[Assassination Priority: Special A Level]

[Age: Around 25]

[Strength: Full Moon Level]

[Abilities: Proficient in Space and Fire Elements, possesses Heavenly Treasure like Divine Fire]

[Introduction: Great Flame Sky Patrol Officer]

[...]

Among the numerous details were many photographs.

The most frequent was a silver-haired youth wielding a red longsword at the Ice Rose Defense Line.

There were also photos dating back to his academy days.

The woman with glasses said, ”The target is named Su Yuan, around 25 years old, a super talent rising from Great Flame, who, in just a few years, has cultivated to the Full Moon level.

He was the key figure in the recent breakthrough of the Ice Rose Defense Line, where many experts of the Holy Temple and the military perished at his hands.”

”Around 25 years old, Full Moon level...” Gareth contemplated, ”I heard the Ice Rose Defense Line broke and the Central War Zone retreated 200 kilometers, was it his doing?”

The woman with glasses replied, ”That’s right, and... according to prior investigations, Lord Hecate is also likely to have died at his hands.”

”Hm? So Hecate was killed by him as well?” Gareth squinted slightly, then expressed some regret, ”What a pity, I never got to enjoy Hecate’s lovely body.”

The woman with glasses remained expressionless and silent.

Gareth then inquired, ”And who killed the Extreme White Moon, any leads?”

The woman with glasses shook her head, ”Even the divination was disturbed, not a single clue; it seems the other party is also a master of the Path of Destiny.”

”I see...” Gareth’s gaze returned to the information in his hand, ”Able to kill Hecate, their strength isn’t weak; last time a low-level one got away, now another powerful one has come.

Betty, keep an eye on his movements, and when the time comes, accompany me personally.”

”Understood.”

Betty acknowledged, then turned to leave.

”Hold on,” Gareth called her, flashing a seductive smile, ”Since they’ve left, you stay behind.”

Betty’s legs trembled slightly, but before she could turn back, Gareth had already come over.

...

Many days passed in the blink of an eye.

Since the Battle of Ice Rose, Great Flame’s advantage grew ever stronger, eventually almost occupying the entire Snow Burial Mountain Range.

Even more fortuitously, during this time a Tiger Vein was born in the Snow Burial Mountain Range, easily claimed by Great Flame, establishing a new A-Level base, and sending Burning Sun Level guardians to stabilize the Central War Zone’s situation completely.

However, considering the extended battle lines, Great Flame didn’t blindly continue expanding after occupying the Snow Burial Mountain Range.

As for Su Yuan, he frequently accepted combat tasks within the department, accumulating battle merit while honing his Star Power.

As Yang Yifeng suggested, compared to secluded cultivation, the bottleneck he faced seemed to visibly loosen during battle.

Additionally, after successfully digesting the Star Core from the Ancient World Fragment, Ruan Ruan surpassed Mo Fei and smoothly broke through to the Full Moon level.

Sky Patrol Department, Su Yuan’s residence.

”So Wang Yu, you already show signs of breaking through?” Su Yuan asked the tall man opposite him.

Wang Yu took a sip of tea, smiling broadly, ”Yes, I just returned from Huo Luo with some insights, and after visiting you this time, I plan to go into seclusion to prepare for the breakthrough.”

Su Yuan nodded, ”Then I wish you a successful breakthrough.”

Since the struggle over the Tiger Vein, Wang Yu became quite intrigued by Su Yuan, as both were super experts at the Full Moon Limit, naturally sharing many topics on cultivation.

Through their interactions, the two became quite familiar with each other.

Wang Yu suddenly remembered something and laughed, ”By the way, I also have a task to do, which I can’t attend due to going into seclusion.

Moonlight hasn’t returned, and the strength of others within Azure Dragon Imperial is limited.

Since you’re back, among everyone in the department now, I find you quite suitable, Su Yuan.”

Su Yuan asked, ”What’s the task, tell me about it first.”

Wang Yu said, ”We have an Array Master from the Capitol City going over to Huo Luo Country, needing someone to accompany.”

”Oh? An Array Master...” Su Yuan’s eyes showed contemplation, ”No wonder you would personally attend.”

Array Device Elixir Talisman, any reaching the Grandmaster Level, are extremely precious top talents for Great Flame.

In these times, such figures are easily targeted, so dispatching expert protection makes sense.

Wang Yu admired, ”Speaking of which, Su Yuan, you’re a Level 6 Array Dao Master yourself, it’s truly remarkable.”

Su Yuan chuckled without saying much, knowing he had a cheat.

Wang Yu continued, ”Su Yuan, with that Space, you can bring him over directly when the time comes.

Additionally, I know you’re applying for the Sun Spirit Pill, and this trip could earn a significant merit.”

Su Yuan pondered and then said, ”What does the higher-up say?”

Wang Yu grinned, ”I’ve already consulted them, and when they saw you as the alternate, the response was swift.”

Su Yuan nodded, ”If that’s the case, then there’s no problem.”

”Thank you, thank you.” Wang Yu smiled broadly and handed over a dossier to Su Yuan, ”I’ll leave it to you then, this is the information on the Array Master.”

Su Yuan took the dossier and opened it, only to pause in surprise.

”This is... Yang Aoshan?”
