Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 903: Chapter 701: Developments

Zhuang Xun said to Su Yuan, "We need to patrol ahead, why don’t you come with us? It’s been a while since we last met, and we can chat more."

Su Yuan glanced at the time and shook his head slightly, "Maybe next time, I’m waiting for someone."

"Waiting for someone?"

"Hmm..." Su Yuan looked up towards the people behind, "They’re here."

Zhuang Xun and the others turned their heads to see a sleek black car slowly approaching and stopping beside them.

Then the car door opened, and a beautiful woman with shoulder-length short hair, wearing a white blouse and a black pencil skirt, stepped out from the driver’s seat.

Her shapely legs were encased in sheer black stockings, partially covered by the skirt, and she wore professional high heels, looking both sweet and sexy.

"Gulp..."

Su Yuan keenly heard a gulping sound beside him, and when he glanced over, he saw that Zhuang Xun was staring wide-eyed at the woman...

"Mr. Su."

Xiao Yu walked around the car’s front to approach and was about to open the rear door for Su Yuan, but Wang Haiping, from the back seat, had already opened it first.

Wang Haiping laughed heartily, "Junior brother, hop in. I came as soon as you got back... Oh, are these your classmates?"

"Yes, senior brother, please wait a moment."

Wang Haiping smiled, "Alright, alright, no rush."

Su Yuan said to Zhuang Xun and the others, "I’ll be in Guangchuan these days. We’ll chat next time, and I can also help if you have any cultivation problems."

"Sure, thanks a lot," Fang Kun immediately responded, glancing at Wang Haiping in the car, "Su Yuan, if you have something to do, go ahead and take care of it!"

Su Yuan nodded and got into the car, while Xiao Yu with great agility opened the front passenger door for Ashley who was following them.

Su Yuan rolled down the window and nodded again to the group before the car slowly drove away.

Watching Su Yuan leave, the group fell into an inexplicable silence.

Chen Qiao watched the car grow distant and suddenly said in a serious tone, "The person in the car just now is not simple. He is likely an official, and his position is not small, similar to how my father feels."

Chen Qiao’s father, Chen Handong, is currently the Deputy Director of the Zigui City Guard Bureau.

Fang Kun also appeared thoughtful, "Moreover, that person looks somewhat familiar. I seem to have seen him somewhere before..."

Jiang Jun nodded, "I have the same feeling. Although I can’t quite remember the face and there are changes in the aura, I should have met this person."

The three of them simultaneously turned to Zhuang Xun, only to find that their previously lively Zhuang Xun now had a complex expression, eyes filled with surprise, awe, and admiration... a mix of emotions flickering through.

"Zhuang Xun, do you recognize the person in the car just now?" Fang Kun asked.

"That’s Wang Haiping!" Zhuang Xun took a deep breath, "He was promoted from your Guangchuan City, the former Director of the Guangchuan Education Bureau, and now the Director of the Qingye City Education Bureau, a Radiant Moon level expert, Wang Haiping!"

"Him?!"

"No wonder he looks so familiar, it’s Director Wang!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Kun and the others couldn’t help but exclaim.

Zhuang Xun spoke with a serious tone, "In just a few years, Wang Haiping went from being an ordinary Director of a Level Three city to now a Director of a Second Stage city.

Apart from him advancing into the Radiant Moon Level with greatly enhanced strength, it’s said he has a mysterious and powerful backing!

I didn’t expect Su Yuan and Director Wang Haiping to be senior and junior brothers, and they seem to have a good relationship.

Really enviable... With this, Su Yuan is likely to hitch onto Wang Haiping’s powerful backing as well!"

Zhuang Xun was overwhelmed with emotions. Wang Haiping is now the Director of the Qingye Education Bureau, a genuine Radiant Moon Level expert, and the powerful backing he has is beyond imagination for people like us.

Fang Kun also sighed, "With such overwhelming talent and a powerful person supporting him from behind, it truly makes one envious."

"No, that’s not it..." Suddenly, Chen Qiao shook his head, "I don’t think that’s the case."

Jiang Jun asked puzzledly, "Ah Qiao, what isn’t the case?"

Zhuang Xun and Fang Kun also looked over.

Chen Qiao pondered and said, "It’s not Su Yuan hitching onto Wang Haiping’s powerful backing, rather I feel... it’s like Director Wang Haiping is intentionally trying to win over Su Yuan?"

"Hahaha, Chen Qiao, you sure have an imagination..." Zhuang Xun couldn’t help but laugh.

But just in a short while, Zhuang Xun’s laughter unconsciously stopped.

If Chen Qiao hadn’t mentioned it, it was fine, but now upon reflection, Wang Haiping’s enthusiastic demeanor did indeed have that hint...

Zhuang Xun appeared thoughtful, "After all, he’s a super genius who reached the Radiant Moon level in his mid-twenties, Director Wang’s attitude seems plausible."

"That makes sense too."

Fang Kun and Jiang Jun both nodded.

The group could only sigh even more, the former super genius is still a super genius, and over the years, the gap between them and him is even wider than expected...

But Chen Qiao’s brows furrowed.

Vaguely, Chen Qiao felt something more was at play.

As a second-generation official, Chen Qiao had met numerous leaders since childhood and had gone through a lot, so his ability to read people and sensitivity to these matters was much stronger than that of Zhuang Xun and the others.

The Director Wang Haiping just now... was a lot like those who come to my house trying to get closer to my dad!

Does Director Wang Haiping want to get close to Su Yuan?

Could it be... his backer is actually Su Yuan?!

This thought flashed through her mind, making Chen Qiao’s heart skip a beat, even she found it too far-fetched.

Chen Qiao wanted to speak up but seeing the already complex expressions on the three people’s faces, she hesitated and eventually remained silent...

Guangchuan City, Sephora Western Restaurant.

The car slowly stopped, and Ashley got out first to open the door for Su Yuan.

"Boss."

Su Yuan nodded slightly, "Mm."

Wang Haiping also got out of the car and said to Su Yuan, "Junior brother, this western restaurant is considered the best in Guangchuan City, the owner is a genuine Rhein person."

"I’ve heard of this place too." Su Yuan smiled, "But senior brother, I just ate, I came out to digest."

Wang Haiping laughed heartily, "I know you just ate at home, that’s why we came to the western restaurant for a change of taste. As for digestion... for people like us, eating more is no issue, come on~"

The middle-aged Rhein manager was already at the door to greet them. Seeing Wang Haiping, he quickly smiled, "Director Wang, your place has been arranged, the usual spot!"

"Thanks, Jeff."

Jeff smiled, "You’re welcome, you’re a regular here, distinguished guests, please come in!"

Su Yuan and the others entered together.

And seeing Ashley with a similar northern face, Jeff was slightly surprised.

The four of them sat in a compartment, and Jeff quickly prepared the steak and red wine.

Wang Haiping said, "Jeff, as usual, I’ll call you if we need anything."

"I understand, Director Wang, please take your time." Jeff responded with a smile, then closed the compartment door.

Wang Haiping looked at Su Yuan, "Junior brother, I didn’t expect you to be back now, are you going to the Grey Realm for a Task?"

Su Yan laughed, "No, just came home for a visit."

"I see... by the way, junior brother, you’ve really become quite famous recently! The ’March Killing Game’ incident has been spreading wildly, even I heard about it at the Qingye Education Bureau."

Wang Haiping was extremely excited, though not feigning it, considering his junior brother did such a significant task at the frontline battle enough to change the course of the war, who wouldn’t be excited seeing him alive in front of them?

Su Yuan shook his head slightly, "Getting ambushed by others isn’t something to brag about."

"Indeed it’s not." Wang Haiping smiled, "But coming out of an ambush alive and eliminating all your ambushers... that’s worth bragging a hundredfold! Junior brother, I’m going to brag like crazy about this!"

Xiao Yu, sitting next to Wang Haiping, looked at him in surprise, it was rare to see him this excited.

Actually, firstly, he was genuinely happy to see Su Yuan;

Secondly... due to Wang Haiping’s hints, Xiao Yu only knew that Su Yuan seemed to have dealt with some formidable experts from the north and made a great achievement.

However, the concept of the Moon Knight, even regular Radiant Moons found hard to comprehend, let alone Xiao Yu, who had just advanced to Shining Star.

Su Yuan said, "But while one wave subsides, another arises. Just as the Northern Army retreated, another issue from the Grey Realm emerged."

Wang Haiping sighed, "Yeah... we’ve been trying to digest the results of the early Earth Tribulations for over half a year now.

Although many Shining Star and Radiant Moon experts have emerged, breaking through to Burning Sun Level isn’t that quick.

Proper digestion will take at least three to five years, time is quite pressing."

Su Yuan said, "Time waits for no one, whether three or five years, not even one or two years can be guaranteed.

Stationing outside, if the Grey Realm Star Beasts break out, there’s no buffer at all.

The situation is urgent, even if it provokes the Grey Realm forces, we must delve in and seize control of the few entrances and establish defenses.

I reckon it won’t be long before something happens on the Grey Realm side, by now, at least Dog-level and Wolf-level Star Veins should be mostly digested."

Wang Haiping smacked his lips, laughing, "Junior brother, your guess is quite accurate."

"Oh? Does senior brother have some news?"

Wang Haiping nodded, "According to the news from the Qingye City Guard, two legions are currently being transferred from the Southern Military District here, estimated to arrive the day after tomorrow.

At that time, including this Grey Realm passage in Guangchuan City, several battalions will be distributed.

Plus the experts transferred from Shuzhou City, there might be action within this week."

Su Yuan asked, "There’s no need for surrounding civilians to be relocated, should there be movements now?"

"There shouldn’t be, firstly, preparations for a large-scale Barrier to cover the city are already underway.

Secondly, during the operation, the King Level expert in charge will be watching the entire time, no Star Beasts dare to emerge or escape from under their nose."

Su Yuan nodded, the Star Beast Demon Kings from the Sha Ze Domain’s Royal Court wouldn’t rashly leave the Grey Realm main stage and rush out.

If they dared to come out, the King Level and even Emperor Level experts from Great Flame aren’t to be trifled with.
