Supreme Star Card Master-Chapter 80 - 69 Special Envoy
The scenery before him shifted, and a wave of heat swept across him.
Su Yuan calmed himself and found himself somewhere in the Flame Mountain.
Not far away were Zhuang Xun, Fang Kun, and the others who had been around the White Bone Hall earlier. Su Yuan quickly joined them.
"Sigh, I wasted so many days in there, and came out with nothing accomplished..."
At this point, Zhuang Xun couldn’t help but glance at Su Yuan with a tinge of resentment.
If it had been just himself who gained nothing, it wouldn’t matter. But Su Yuan, this guy, had acquired two Blue Cards in the Secret Realm in one go!
Damn it, I’m really upset...
Fang Kun frowned and said, "Zhuang Xun, what exactly happened to you?"
Zhuang Xun sighed, "Let Su Yuan tell you. He knows better than me."
Su Yuan took over and said, "He encountered one of the Evil Card Masters..."
Su Yuan briefly recounted the events after leaving the White Bone Hall.
"So, you dealt with all three of them?!" Despite lowering his voice, Fang Kun couldn’t hide his astonishment.
Su Yuan nodded.
"Hiss..." Fang Kun sucked in a cold breath. "That’s impressive..."
Su Yuan smiled, "It’s no use talking about it here. Since the Molten Lava Cave is over, let’s head out first."
Fang Kun nodded, "Alright, but before that, we should check in with Senior Zhou."
Zhuang Xun was taken aback, "Senior Zhou?"
"Yes, I met a team led by one of our seniors from Shuzhou College inside. You should come and meet them too."
Zhuang Xun was delighted, "Oh? Then let’s go together."
Su Yuan said, "Since you all are from Shuzhou College, I’ll wait for you here."
"Alright, we’ll be back soon."
Zhuang Xun and Fang Kun went over to Zhou Fenghua and the others, where the Shuzhou College students exchanged greetings.
Su Yuan, on the other hand, reviewed the multiple battles from the Molten Lava Cave on his own.
The most dangerous battles in this Molten Lava Cave were against the Netherworld Great Mage and the three Evil Card Masters, including Tu Yuan.
The issues that arose were notable, particularly three points.
First, dealing with Dou Xiao’s blood body and the Netherworld Great Mage’s illusory state, physical attacks were somewhat limited. He lacked a decisive high-power Star Power attack.
However, with Hellfire acquired, this flaw was now addressed.
Next, he had to upgrade Hellfire swiftly. Possessing a Blue Fire Element attack skill at the Bronze Level, perfectly or even at the Transformation Realm, would be a trump card capable of burning through any obstacle!
Of course, if he fought with full effort, the cost might be unimaginably high...
Second, he lacked enhancement skills to boost physical fitness and pure martial arts skills.
When dealing with Tu Yuan before, he had to avoid a direct confrontation due to Tu Yuan’s super strong close combat techniques, opting for a more tactical approach to defeat him.
However, his strength, defense, and constitution were also high, reaching C-grade. Exercising these attributes head-on shouldn’t be feared by any peer!
Currently at Bronze Level, his Star Cards included Holy Light Baptism, Nether Wolf Summon, Hellfire, and Hellfire Summon. For the remaining skill slot, he needed an enhancement Star Card, preferably a Blue Star Card.
Third, his battle experience was somewhat lacking, especially against enemies with strange tactics. He should observe and consider more.
If he hadn’t been fooled by Dou Xiao’s bluffing self-detonation of his blood body, he could have killed him the first time they met!
If that had happened, dealing with Tu Yuan and the other two later would have been much easier without the intel Mo Wenwen and the others had on him.
"Constant reflection and continuous progress..."
Su Yuan took a deep breath. As he lifted his head, Zhuang Xun and Fang Kun returned.
"Let’s go."
Zhuang Xun smiled, looking unexpectedly pleased.
Fang Kun’s expression was a bit peculiar.
As they walked, Zhuang Xun chuckled, "Su Yuan, I heard you were a hero saving a beauty earlier?"
Su Yuan was puzzled, then shook his head and smiled, "Just lent a small hand."
"A small help for you might be quite significant for others..." Zhuang Xun nudged Fang Kun and gave him a knowing look.
Fang Kun rolled his eyes and handed over a note, "This is from Ai Xiaoyu."

Zhuang Xun chuckled, "That shy pretty girl turned completely red when handing us this note."
Su Yuan took a look. The note had some thank you words written in delicate handwriting, leaving a contact and a "(*^▽^*)" emoticon.
"Being young is good..." Su Yuan couldn’t help but smile.
Zhuang Xun pouted, "The way you said that makes you sound old."
Su Yuan shook his head and tucked the note into his Space Ring...
Up in the sky, a green-haired youth scanned the Flame Mountain below, his eyes emitting green light as if using some pupil technique.
At this moment, a middle-aged man flew in quickly from afar.
"Special Envoy Lu, any discoveries on your end?" Tao Liangping of the Yunyang City Guard asked.
Green-haired youth Lu Yu blinked and shook his head slightly, "No."
Tao Liangping frowned, "According to the intelligence, those three Evil Card Masters appeared in the east days ago. We’ve been tracking them to here, but they seemed to have vanished, likely entering the Molten Cave Secret Realm.
But now, the people in the Secret Realm should be out, yet we still haven’t seen those three..."
Lu Yu withdrew his gaze, "Perhaps they died inside."
Tao Liangping pondered and shook his head slowly, "I doubt it. From their profiles, those three Evil Card Masters are experienced and have unusual abilities. They’re among the top young talents in the Black Demon Association.
They’ve killed nearly twenty Silver Stage people. This Bronze Level Secret Realm shouldn’t have wiped them out."
Lu Yu did not elaborate, saying softly, "Let’s head back and have your team question those who came out for clues..."
Suddenly, Lu Yu’s expression changed, making a hand seal as his eyes glowed green. He looked down again.
Moments later, Lu Yu’s eyes returned to normal.
"What’s wrong?" Tao Liangping asked, noticing this.
"Follow me." Lu Yu’s figure flashed, heading to the ground.
Tao Liangping quickly followed.
On the ground, Su Yuan and the others were moving quickly when suddenly a green light descended before them, revealing a green-haired youth in a black robe.
Although in the Great Flame Kingdom, young students like Su Yuan typically wore shirts, T-shirts, or casual wear, rather than long robes or training suits.
Startled, the three kept their guard, about to question when a middle-aged man in a city guard uniform appeared behind the green-haired youth.
"Captain-class!" Zhuang Xun noticed the insignia on Tao Liangping’s shoulder, his face changing as he whispered.
Su Yuan and Fang Kun might not recognize the ranks but understood immediately from Zhuang Xun’s words.
They quickly saluted, "Greetings to the seniors!"
In the City Guard, captains usually needed to be Silver Stage. Mid-level captains were Gold Level; captain-class was Shining Star Level!
Given that this person was a captain-class, he must be a Shining Star Level expert.
And since this City Guard captain stood half a step behind the green-haired youth, this green-haired youth must be extraordinary.
"I am Tao Liangping of the Yunyang City Guard," Tao Liangping said with a smile. "Don’t be nervous. We just want to ask a few questions."
Tao Liangping was puzzled too. What did Special Envoy Lu find in these three kids?
Lu Yu didn’t waste time, stepping up to Su Yuan, asking directly, "Have you encountered those three?"
Hearing this, and looking at Lu Yu and Tao Liangping, Su Yuan instantly understood they were here about Dou Xiao, Tu Yuan, and Mo Wenwen.
After a quick mental calculation, Su Yuan said, "Are you referring to the three Evil Card Masters?"
Lu Yu’s eyes brightened, "Yes."
Su Yuan replied, "I have."
Lu Yu continued, "Did you kill them?"
Tao Liangping shook his head, "Special Envoy Lu, this kid is just a freshman undergraduate at Bronze Early Stage. Asking this..."
"I did." Su Yuan nodded.
Huh???
Tao Liangping’s eyes widened in surprise at the question and answer, rubbing his ears.
Did he mishear???
"Did you really kill the three Evil Card Masters?" Tao Liangping took out three profiles with pictures, "Can you confirm?"
Su Yuan looked at the profiles and then handed two rings to Tao Liangping, "These are their Space Rings. You can check."
"These are theirs." Tao Liangping verified the rings, confirming they belonged to Tu Yuan and Mo Wenwen.
The rings had lingering auras and items used by Evil Card Masters.
Lu Yu looked deeply at Su Yuan, then smiled, "I knew it. Your aura strongly connects you to those three. Unless you had close dealings, you must have killed them."
Su Yuan’s heart tensed. This world indeed had many incredible abilities.
Good thing he hid nothing; otherwise, he might be in trouble.
Tao Liangping examined Su Yuan in surprise and said, "Young man, we can’t return these rings to you. We’ll convert them into equivalent rewards for you.
Also, since you killed the three Evil Card Masters, we’ll issue a bounty reward to you."
"No problem. It’s all up to you." Read new chapters at novelbuddy
Lu Yu asked, "What is your name?"
Su Yuan respectfully replied, "I am Su Yuan."
Lu Yu nodded without more words.
Tao Liangping said, "Alright, Su Yuan, leave me your phone and account details. We’ll process it in a few days and transfer everything to you."
After Su Yuan left his information, Lu Yu and Tao Liangping flew away.
"Check this student Su Yuan and the other two."
Tao Liangping responded, "Alright."
...
Once the two were gone, Fang Kun and Zhuang Xun breathed heavily.
"No wonder, the Shining Star Level’s presence is strong," Zhuang Xun marveled, "Especially that green-haired youth. Even the City Guard captain is respectful."
Fang Kun said, "I heard Captain Tao call him ’Special Envoy Lu.’ Do we have such a title in the Great Flame?"
Zhuang Xun shook his head, "I don’t know. I’ve never heard of it."
Su Yuan laughed, "We’re still at a low level. It’s normal not to know many things. Forget it, let’s go quickly."
