Supreme Star Card Master - Chapter 852 - 660 Retreat by Killing
Chapter 852: Chapter 660 Retreat by Killing
“Hmm? So quickly, already killed…”
Mu Kexian held the broken sword, turned to look at the silver-eyed youth in mid-air, and was surprised, with a hint of a different color flashing in her eyes…
After killing him, Su Yuan didn’t feel much.
When the opponent’s true form was unleashed, his attack power was absolutely top-notch, capable of biting through even the Qiankun Sun and Moon Slash released by Mo Fei.
But so what if the attack is strong?
Once caught by Instant Unlimited and immobilized, without an indestructible Absolute Defense or Resurrection to save him, it’s just a matter of being slain with a single sword.
It’s much easier compared to Yi Zikun, who had impenetrable defense once he used the Five Mountains Stacked!
Su Yuan casually picked up Lava’s ring, then turned around, looking at the Azure Dragon Imperial Envoys being besieged in the distance, and then towards Yan Chibei fiercely clashing with Wang Yu using the giant divine being.
“It should be over now.” Su Yuan’s eyes turned cold, “Mo Fei, go help the people of the Sky Patrol Department.”
“Yes, Master.” Mo Fei responded, then took out the Hundred Beasts Tripod, “This tripod is…”
Su Yuan said, “Take it and use it first.”
“Yes!”
Mo Fei immediately took the Hundred Beasts Tripod and charged forward.
Then, Su Yuan turned his gaze to Mu Kexian.
Mu Kexian stood quietly, saying nothing, neither advancing nor retreating.
Just looking at Su Yuan, very calmly.
“Friend Mu…”
Mu Kexian directly said, “No need to worry about me.”
“Very well~”
Now was indeed not the time to worry about her, as Su Yuan’s figure flickered and rushed out…
Within Draw a Prison, the conjured heavenly god and Wang Yu in Azure Dragon Ghost form were fiercely clashing.
As for Liu Ping, he was using various magic forms to assist from the side.
But at this moment, just as Yan Chibei was about to cooperate with the conjured heavenly god for another strike, he suddenly sensed something and fixed his gaze into the distance.
“Hmm? Has that person on North Road been killed by him? Why has his aura recovered again! Is that… Junior Sister Mu?” Yan Chibei raised an eyebrow, looking at Mu Kexian behind Su Yuan, “What is going on, how is Junior Sister Mu with that person!”
“Oh? Looks like that guy got counter-killed by Su Envoy, hahaha.” Wang Yu laughed out loud, stomping forward and instantly charging towards Yan Chibei, throwing another punch.
Yan Chibei quickly raised his right arm horizontally, and the conjured heavenly god also raised its right arm to block in front.
“Boom!” With a sound, Wang Yu punched Yan Chibei along with the conjured heavenly god back.
Yan Chibei staggered a few steps back before regaining his stance, turning his head to see that while several Azure Dragon Imperial Envoys were also casualties, they were fighting with strong cooperation and unwavering battle intent, making it impossible to wipe them out quickly.
And if the god-like Su Yuan charged over, who could stop him!
Yan Chibei decisively said, “Friend Liu, let’s retreat!”
Liu Ping looked at Su Yuan coming forward, took a deep breath, and nodded lightly, “Alright.”
Liu Ping formed a seal with both hands, raised a finger, and a ball of yellow light shone from Yan Chibei’s body.
“Transposition.”
With a flash of yellow light, Yan Chibei was transported outside the golden circle of Draw a Prison.
But Yan Chibei’s expression changed slightly, and when he turned back, he found Liu Ping still inside the circle.
“Friend Liu? Why haven’t you retreated yet!”
“If I also retreat, who will hold them back?” Liu Ping shook his head slightly, forming seals with his hands, making the radiance on the golden circle beneath him shine brilliantly again, “Friend Yan, please take my disciples with you as you retreat.”
Yan Chibei frowned slightly, “This…”
“Go!” Liu Ping’s eyes widened, clapping his palms together, causing golden light to flicker from his palms, “Seal the heavens, designate the land!”
Under Liu Ping’s full magical effort, the golden circle of Draw a Prison rapidly expanded outward, instantly enveloping the approaching Su Yuan inside!
But that was not all, Liu Ping quickly formed seals, and one by one, lotus lamp phantoms ignited around him, undoubtedly the Seven Star Lamp life extension technique.
“Oh?”
Su Yuan’s expression shifted slightly, preparing to use Instant Teleportation to escape the golden circle.
But Draw a Prison was a superior ensnaring secret technique by the Five Directions Temple, not even Instant Movement nor Transposition could cross the boundary of the golden circle!
After a brief consideration, Su Yuan concentrated his thoughts: “Divine Return, disperse!”
The red light on the Demon Saber flickered slightly, then fell silent…
Yan Chibei understood Liu Ping’s intention, sighed inwardly, clasped his fists before him, and then called to everyone, “Taishang Sect, Five Directions Temple, immediately retreat with me!”
“Senior Brother Liu?!” Ji Yi exclaimed, trying to rush forward.
Liu Ping did not answer him directly, but shouted loudly, “Brother Yan, take my junior brothers away!”
Yan Chibei said no more, withdrew the conjured heavenly god, then flashed in front of Ji Yi, pulling him away, “Quickly leave, do not let down your senior brother’s intentions!”
The disciples of the Taishang Sect had already realized the situation was unfavorable and quickly followed Yan Chibei in retreat.
Though Five Directions Temple disciples hesitated, they also knew Liu Ping could not hold on for long, and it was not the time for emotional actions, so they followed Yan Chibei swiftly.
And the people of the Blue Shark Tribe realized that after Elder Ge’s death, Saint Child Lava was also killed by that man, leaving them too frightened to stay, fleeing in all directions!
After a round of assault, the Azure Dragon Imperial Envoys also suffered considerable losses, and at this moment did not pursue the retreating enemies.
Wang Yu rushed to Liu Ping’s side, unleashing countless punches on him.
But Liu Ping did not move or dodge, with the Seven-star Lotus Lamp glowing around him, nearly undead before the lamps extinguished.
Soon, Wang Yu stopped, calmed his expression, and asked Liu Ping, “Is it worth it to do this?”
Liu Ping said calmly, “As a core disciple of the sect, it is naturally my responsibility.”
Wang Yu nodded, and Su Yuan’s eyes flashed with a bit of appreciation.
Wang Yu and Su Yuan both understood Liu Ping’s intention.
The reason Liu Ping stayed behind was indeed because someone needed to restrain them, especially Su Yuan. His killing speed was too fast!
Given the super mobility of Su Yuan’s Space abilities, it was not just about whether the sects could escape— even if they could, the casualties would be enormous.
And if someone had to stay to block them, it would inevitably be Liu Ping.
Besides having sufficient strength, it was also because, in the near annihilation of other sects, the Five Directions Temple remained almost intact.
No fear of scarcity, but of inequality.
Especially now on the Southern Continent, because of the struggle over the Star Veins, the relationships between the sects were growing tenser.
Just as Liu Ping previously said, “The Five Directions Temple must also bleed a little.”
And where would that blood come from?
Naturally, it would be from Liu Ping himself, the Core Disciple!
And it was precisely because he understood Liu Ping’s thoughts that Yan Chibei did not persuade further.
Liu Ping, looking at the gathered Azure Dragon Imperial people around him, suddenly raised his head to ask Su Yuan: “May I ask you, Friend Su, to spare my junior brother?”
“Of course.” Su Yuan took out the talisman previously used to place a curse on Ji Yi, “According to the agreement with Friend Ji, he has also fulfilled it.”
With a flick of Su Yuan’s hand, a flash of silver light thoroughly shattered the talisman.
Seeing this, Liu Ping breathed a slight sigh of relief.
“With my status as a Core Disciple of the Five Directions Temple and the duty of covering the retreat of Supreme Dao disciples, it should be enough…”
As Liu Ping was pondering, his face suddenly paled, as the first Lotus Lamp flickered slightly and then went out…
…
On the other side, beside Wen Jiuhua, there was suddenly another girl with sea-blue long hair, Ruan Ruan!
At this moment, Wen Jiuhua picked up the gourd and aimed it at Ruan Ruan nearby.
“Be careful, that gourd is very powerful!”
Although Zhuang Yuehua did not know this blue-haired girl who suddenly appeared to help, he quickly warned in surprise.
Ruan Ruan was taken aback upon hearing this, and in the next moment, a green light swiftly shot towards her.
“Not good!” Zhuang Yuehua’s face grew solemn, worrying that she would become like Wu Envoy.
Wen Jiuhua grinned: “Heh, sneaky girl, you like to ambush me… Hm?”
Seeing the large swath of green light envelope Ruan Ruan, she showed a slight pause, then displayed no abnormal reaction at all.
The air froze momentarily before the green light from the gourd’s mouth gradually dissipated.
“Hm??” Wen Jiuhua’s eyes widened, “Why didn’t the Soul Melting Gourd work!”
Zhuang Yuehua was equally surprised, having witnessed the gourd’s power previously, which even the Full Moon-level Wu Envoy couldn’t withstand, yet now it had almost no effect on a Waning Moon-level individual?
Just beyond a small hill in the distance, Antonios held a small silver knife while standing beside another of Ruan Ruan’s clones.
At this moment, Ruan Ruan giggled: “That gourd really didn’t work on me, Little An, you’re so smart!”
Antonios, however, shook his head with a wry smile, somewhat frightened: “That gourd is no simple thing, it almost traced your soul to come after you! Thankfully, I severed the connection between you and the clone in time…”
Antonios and Ruan Ruan had been hiding there for a while, and after observing the gourd’s ability twice, Antonios realized it was capable of capturing souls.
Thus, he had Ruan Ruan create a clone, transferring her soul upon being hit by the green light, leaving an empty shell.
This was something impossible for ordinary people, but Ruan Ruan’s “Divide and Conquer” made her clone quite special, able to achieve this easily at such close range.
Antonios said, “Ruan Ruan, next, you just need to block that gourd for the Sky Patrol Moon Monarch.”
“Okay!” Ruan Ruan agreed happily, and then, with a thought, she split off part of her soul to restore the clone’s mobility.
Antonios nodded silently, suddenly sensing something, he turned to see Ashley walking out from the front.
“Oh? Ashley is back too, it seems it’s almost over…” Antonios smiled.
Meanwhile, in the field, a Demon Soul clad in a black robe descended from mid-air.
“Su Envoy?… No, an avatar?” Zhuang Yuehua looked surprised and greeted, “Greetings, sir.”
With a grin, the Demon Soul responded: “On orders from the main body, I’ve come to assist the Moon Monarch in killing this foe.”
The Golden Flame Burning Body ignited, and as he raised his hand, a Demon Saber Clone condensed into his hand, leading the charge…
After a while, Su Yuan and Wang Yu watched as the last of the Seven-star Lotus Lamps on Liu Ping’s body burned out.
Subsequently, the divine light in Liu Ping’s eyes dimmed, and he slowly lowered his head.
At the same time, the golden circle of the drawn prison also dissipated.
Su Yuan glanced at Liu Ping once more, then looked in the direction the Taishang Sect and others were fleeing.
Even with Far-Sighted, the traces of the Taishang Sect, the Five Directions Temple disciples were no longer visible.
“Moon Monarch!” Liao Hua and others immediately came up.
Wang Yu released the Azure Dragon Ghost, then looked at the group: “Luo Feng, Tan Xing, Duan Wenwen… Nine people missing?”
In reality, losing only nine people under such an onslaught was already relatively good.
Su Yuan approached and said, “Thanks to Moon Monarch Wang and all the envoys for holding the powerful enemies for me.”
Wang Yu raised his hand to stop him: “We merely acted on orders. By the way, about Yuehua…”
Su Yuan sensed briefly and said, “No need to worry, over there, I had already made preparations when I came.”
Wang Yu grinned: “Really? Friend Su truly has many hidden cards~”
Just then, Mo Fei reverted to his original form and landed beside Su Yuan: “Master.”
With him came Mu Kexian from the Taishang Sect.
Seeing Mu Kexian’s attire, Wang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly, then he smacked his lips and smiled: “Su Envoy truly has great fortunes…”
Su Yuan glanced at Mu Kexian beside him, feeling another wave of headache.
