Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 375: Chapter 296 Departure, Ambush

Time passed, and the sky grew darker.

As dusk fell, the communications atop the Heavenly Dragon Palace also came to an end.

Rays of light flew from the Heavenly Dragon Palace in all directions, some falling within Dragon Gate City, while others flew straight out of the city and left.

Unlike the Lower Three Levels, those who ascended to the Heavenly Dragon Palace were, apart from the various envoys of different nations and forces, essentially experts from the surroundings of the Black Wind Domain who intended to join the Dragon Sect.

After all, the entire Black Wind Domain and its surroundings had only this one king-level power.

And those who left naturally ultimately gave up on joining the Heavenly Dragon Palace.

But this was just a small fraction; more people stayed on the Heavenly Dragon Palace. Nine out of ten were about to join the Dragon Palace.

Xiao Jian, Kleken, and the other envoys from various countries still had many matters to discuss with the Dragon Sect, which would probably take a few more days. They decided to stay at the Heavenly Dragon Palace.

Besides these sun, moon, and star experts who flew off on their own, a cyan light beam descended straight onto the Dragon Ascending Square, revealing several figures.

It was Su Yuan and his group, accompanied by Qin Lianyun.

Just as they landed, within an instant, Su Yuan felt numerous overt and covert gazes from all directions.

Silver light shimmered in his eyes as Su Yuan activated his All-Knowing Vision, sweeping his gaze around.

Those hiding behind the structures and watching secretly had no idea that they were completely exposed in Su Yuan’s vision, even down to the hair on their bodies.

“Heh, quite a few people are interested.”

With just a brief glance, Su Yuan spotted more than a dozen groups, causing him to let out a cold snort in his heart.

Qin Lianyun asked, “Su Yuan, you guys aren’t in a hurry to leave, are you?”

“It’s too late now. We’ll leave tomorrow.” The silver light in Su Yuan’s eyes faded as he shook his head.

Qin Lianyun smacked his lips. “Of course, we’re not leaving today! I meant that since you’ve come all this way, why not stay in our Dragon Gate City for a few days?”

Su Yuan smiled and declined. “I’m afraid not. I have a lot of things to handle for now, and I don’t have much time.”

Even though he had attained Left and Right Mutual Struggle, he still lacked two skills.

Moreover, his Star Dust had long been insufficient.

Of all the epic skills he possessed, only All-Knowing Vision had been perfected, and Great Sun Burning Body Technique had achieved Great Success.

The remaining Void Evil Manifesting Saints, Void, and the newly acquired Left and Right Mutual Struggle were still at the Entry-level.

It was time to go gather some Star Dust!

Now that he had reached the Gold Limit, mere cultivation would not suffice. He needed more battles and reflection. When the opportunity arose, complemented by Condensed Liquid Pills, breaking through to Shining Star would be a natural progression.

Huang Xiang also nodded. Having just broken through to the Gold Level, he needed to return to the academy and use the Star Mist Pool to consolidate himself, aiming to step into the Gold Middle Stage.

“You guys are real cultivation maniacs! No wonder you can climb over nine hundred steps of the Heavenly Ladder. Not only is your talent outstanding, but your diligence is also unparalleled.”

Qin Lianyun smacked his lips. “Since that’s the case, I must give you a good treat tonight. Not far to the north is a famous barbecue tavern in our Dragon Gate City.

The barbecue there is authentic, made with fresh Star Beast meat from the mountains to the west. The wine is brewed from low-stage spirit plants and spirit fruits!

A meal there costs at least a dozen or twenty Cent Star Stones. I usually can’t bear to spend that much!

But tonight, we’ll have the best wine and meats, both to celebrate and to bid you farewell!”

Su Yuan nodded and smiled. “Tonight’s expenses will be on Young Master Qin.

But we just took some treasures from your family’s treasury, so you aren’t concerned about troubling Lord Qin?”

Qin Lianyun laughed heartily. “Just a few treasures? No big deal. You saved me! Besides, those things belong to my father. I have nothing to worry about.”

Su Yuan praised, “Young Master Qin is generous!”

Huang Xiang also remarked, “Awesome!”

“Definitely. Now, I’m a top-tier second-generation star!” Qin Lianyun patted his chest and grinned smugly.

After saying this, the group exchanged glances and burst into laughter.

Only Luo Bingtong tilted her head slightly, looking at them with some confusion.

“Alright, let’s go. Tonight, we won’t return until we’re drunk!”

Qin Lianyun took the lead, guiding Su Yuan and the others to the barbecue tavern.

In a small alley outside the square, a scar-faced red-haired youth watched the backs of Su Yuan and his group.

“Those are the ones who ascended to the Heavenly Dragon Palace, right?”

Another person beside him responded, “That’s right, Boss Lin. According to the information, they should have obtained some good items up there, not just Condensed Liquid Pills, but several Epic Star Cards as well!”

The red-haired youth asked, “Is the information verified?”

“This information comes from above. It can’t be wrong!”

“Alright, keep an eye on them. Let me know immediately if they leave the city.”

“Got it!”

It wasn’t just these two. In secret, many others were also eyeing Su Yuan and his group, plotting silently.

In reality, even the many sun, moon, and star experts on the Heavenly Dragon Palace weren’t sure what good things Su Yuan and his group had obtained in the Treasure Hall.

The Dragon Sect certainly wouldn’t publicly announce the exchange details.

But this didn’t prevent some ill-intentioned individuals at the Heavenly Dragon Palace from spreading some vague, fabricated information.

It wasn’t hard to deduce, though. By combining the Treasure Hall’s exchange items and Su Yuan’s group’s cultivation levels, along with the Golden Carp and Purple Carp Transcendence Tokens they obtained, it was easy to guess that they exchanged for Condensed Liquid Pills, Epic Star Cards, and even Epic Star Artifacts!
