Chapter 606: 482
North of the East Continent, Qiguang, within a golden palace of the Holy Court.
A middle-aged man with slender build and sharp eyes, having long black hair, was stroking a Star Disk.
On this Star Disk were twelve different imprints. However, at this moment, only one Aries imprint remained.
It wasn’t long before, under the watchful gaze of the middle-aged man, the last Aries imprint flashed and then dimmed.
The middle-aged man’s face showed no emotion, but the atmospheric pressure in the entire great hall suddenly thickened, as if the air was about to solidify!
“Is the entire army annihilated?” the middle-aged man murmured to himself, a hint of coldness appearing in his eyes. “What a bunch of useless fools!”
This man was none other than Lord Constantin, the King Level who established and was in charge of the Twelve Palace Star Envoys of the Holy Temple!
With a slight force from his right hand, Constantin shattered the Star Disk into powder!
Just at this moment, a sound of somewhat heavy footsteps slowly approached from outside the great hall.
It was an old man holding a Divine Staff and wearing a white Divine Priest Robe, walking in from the corridor.
Constantin glanced at the old man and said coldly, “Ahaliem, you’ve come quite quickly.”
The old high priest walked straight to a spot next to Constantin and sat down, rasping, “Lord Constantin, it’s been a while since we last met…”
Watching the old high priest sit so casually beside him, Constantin’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
Ahaliem began to speak slowly, “Lord Constantin, the Twelve Palace Star Envoys you created have all been wiped out. Now, the Tiger Vein of the Small World has also fallen into the hands of Great Flame…”
Constantin looked at Ahaliem, his voice a bit more subdued, “So?”
As if not noticing Constantin’s displeasure, Ahaliem continued, “Your Excellency, you conducted this combined experiment of the Holy Blessing with Marshal Barton from the military.
A large amount of resources was spent, many promising young talents were sacrificed, yet the results seem underwhelming.
Judging by the results, it could be considered a complete failure!”
Constantin’s eyes showed a momentary dullness, and he furrowed his brows.
In reality, although the Holy Blessing consumed a large number of young Star Card Masters, the results were not bad.
Each of the Twelve Palace Star Envoys was the equivalent of the Hexagram Star Knights of the Holy Temple, with their numbers even doubled!
Constantin was naturally aware of the arrogance and overconfidence of the Twelve Palace Star Envoys.
However, in Constantin’s view, as long as they possessed sufficient strength, overconfidence was not an issue.
But Constantin did not anticipate that the originally advantageous situation would end up like this.
He wasn’t sure if they had underestimated Great Flame’s Star Lord, or if…
Constantin thought of the Aries imprint that had just dimmed on the Star Disk and narrowed his eyes.
But no matter what, failure was failure. The Holy Temple itself judged solely by results.
The current result was that the Twelve Palace Star Envoys were completely wiped out, a significant defeat in the battle!
Ahaliem said, “This contest for the Tiger Vein was entirely entrusted to you. But with such results, those above are indeed dissatisfied…”
Constantin looked at Ahaliem for a few moments before coldly snorting, “Failure is failure. I won’t shirk responsibility. I will not participate further in the next Earth Tribulation plan.”
“Hahaha…” A dry laugh came from under the white hood. “That’s good, that’s good. In that case, I won’t disturb you any longer.”
Ahaliem then got up and walked out step by step with the help of his Divine Staff.
“I hope you will have a peaceful rest during this time, Lord Constantin.
Perhaps you might take this opportunity to advance further, breaking through to the next threshold of the Power of Laws…”
Constantin watched Ahaliem leisurely walk away until the latter’s figure disappeared outside the hall. The dangerous glint in his eyes grew more intense.
“Old con man, you better not fall into my hands…”
…
A few days later, morning.
Sky Patrol Department, Zhu Yuan 777.
In the bedroom, Su Yuan opened his eyes and faintly heard some noises and whispers outside.
“Someone?”
For a moment, Su Yuan was puzzled, but then he recalled and let out a soft laugh.
After getting out of bed and tidying up briefly, Su Yuan pushed the door open and walked out of the bedroom, seeing two young girls sitting together on the sofa in the living room, whispering.
Morning sunlight sprinkled on them, accompanied by occasional soft laughter.
Such a scene was indeed pleasing to the eye.
“Master!”
“Su… Yuan.”
The sound of Su Yuan opening the door immediately caught the attention of Ruan Ruan and Luo Bingtong. The two girls stood up and walked over together.
“Sit.”
Su Yuan brought Bing Tong to sit by the table, while Ruan Ruan transformed into her true form and jumped onto the table.
Su Yuan looked at Luo Bingtong, “Did you rest well?”
Luo Bingtong looked at Su Yuan, “Yes…”
“That’s good.” Su Yuan smiled and then pondered the upcoming matters.
As early as the day before yesterday, Su Yuan and others had arrived at the Sky Patrol Department, bringing back the Wolf Vein.
And Luo Bingtong didn’t rush to return to the Ancient Forbidden Zone, instead, she followed Su Yuan back to the department.
Fang Qingxiao personally summoned Su Yuan and the other Star Envoys.
After everyone reported to him, they dispersed to await further instructions.
As for Ashley, she was kept behind by Fang Qingxiao alone.
The contest for the Tiger Vein lasted for several months.
