Supreme Star Card Master-Chapter 162 - 140: I’m Leaving It to You
Where the Flare Silver Branch was located.
Huang Xiang was drenched in sweat. He had sealed six of the seven flares with Star Power and was now focusing all his strength on closing the last one.
Next to Huang Xiang, a Hellfire was engaged in a continuous battle with a Purple Flame Mad Lion. Upon closer inspection, the Demon Armor on this Hellfire had already been torn to shreds!
As for another Hellfire, it had been torn into several pieces by the sharp claws of the Purple Flame Mad Lion. It had fallen to the ground, dead beyond any hope of revival.
Across from them, the Purple Flame Mad Lion, though heavily wounded, had blood swirling around it as if it were boiling, constantly writhing and surging!
Under the effect of this blood, the Purple Flame Mad Lion’s speed was significantly faster than at the start!
Not only that, but the injuries on its body caused by the two Hellfires were rapidly healing under the influence of the boiling blood.
Blue Skill, Boiling Blood!
The heavier the injuries, the greater the increase in agility and self-healing ability!
At the beginning, the two armed Hellfires together managed to suppress the Silver Middle Stage Purple Flame Mad Lion.
However, the Hellfires lacked explosive skills capable of finishing it off in one blow. As the Purple Flame Mad Lion gradually got hurt, its movements became faster. In the end, it reached the limits of what one could achieve at the Silver Stage!
Not only did it outfight the two Hellfires, leaving them defenseless, but its wounds continued to heal.
Consequently, the situation quickly turned worse. With the premise of passive defense while protecting Huang Xiang, one of the Hellfires was ultimately ripped apart by the Purple Flame Mad Lion.
The remaining Hellfire was also in grave danger.
"What’s with this lion? The more it fights, the stronger it gets. Does it have Adaptation Talent as well?!"
Huang Xiang, though unsure of what skill the Purple Flame Mad Lion had used, knew the situation was dire. He could only put all his effort into sealing the last flare on the Flare Silver Branch!
Before long, the seventh flare dimmed under Huang Xiang’s efforts as well.
"Great!"
Huang Xiang, heart full of joy, took out a long knife and cut off the weakened base of the Silver Branch.
"Boom!"
Before Huang Xiang could celebrate, a massive sound of a body hitting the ground suddenly came from behind.
Huang Xiang recognized this sound. It was undoubtedly the sound of a Hellfire being knocked down.
"Damn it!"
Huang Xiang’s heart jumped, and he quickly turned around. He saw the Purple Flame Mad Lion charging at him like a purple phantom, its claw at the ready!
Shocked, Huang Xiang could only raise his long knife to block.
"Puh!"
A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out as Huang Xiang was sent flying.
Even so, Huang Xiang held tightly onto the Flare Silver Branch, refusing to let go.
After rolling on the ground several times, Huang Xiang managed to get back on his feet with a slap of his left hand, clutching his chest, which had suffered internal injuries, and started running!
Are you kidding? Even Su Yuan’s armed Hellfire got shredded by that purple lion. How could I possibly be its match!
The sound of rushing wind came from behind as the temperature increased. Huang Xiang gritted his teeth and kept running without looking back.
He knew if he dared to stop, he would be dead in an instant!
However, the gap in speed between the two was too large. Even if Huang Xiang could adapt to the Purple Flame Mad Lion’s speed, he couldn’t do it in a short time.
In just a few seconds, the Purple Flame Mad Lion caught up, its claw gripping purple flames and striking again!
"I’m doomed! I just escaped from the King of Hell’s grasp a few days ago, and now I’m going back again!"
Huang Xiang’s face was ashen, but he kept mumbling.
"Su Yuan, you must avenge me! And take this Flare Silver Branch. If not, my death would be in vain..."
Just as Huang Xiang was about to die under the lion’s claw, a ten-meter-long pitch-black line suddenly appeared behind him, landing precisely on the Purple Flame Mad Lion.
The terrifying spatial ripples on the black line made the Purple Flame Mad Lion feel its scalp tingle. Without thinking, it tried to leap away.
But the Elemental Magnetism Pressure, though delayed, followed and landed on the Purple Flame Mad Lion, making its body sink.
Although the Purple Flame Mad Lion had Boiling Blood enhancing its agility, escaping Elemental Magnetism Pressure required Star Power or Strength. Speed alone was useless.
In his White Flame State, Su Yuan’s Elemental Magnetism Pressure was much more potent, enough to immobilize even a Silver High Stage Star Beast with C-Level Strength Talent for a moment, let alone the Purple Flame Mad Lion.
Just as the Purple Flame Mad Lion stood up again, the full power of the Boundary Breaking Line erupted.
In a burst of black light, the Purple Flame Mad Lion was sliced into two!
Boiling Blood wasn’t Super Speed Regeneration. When split in two, it could only mean "death"!
Huang Xiang, who had run dozens of meters, sensed the commotion behind him and quickly turned to look.
One glance revealed that the Purple Flame Mad Lion had already been slain!
Shocked, Huang Xiang stopped in his tracks and looked up. He saw Su Yuan, surrounded by white flames, floating in mid-air. With a flash, Su Yuan returned to the Purple Flame Mad Lion’s corpse.
"Su Yuan!"
Overjoyed, Huang Xiang couldn’t believe Su Yuan had returned at this critical moment and single-handedly killed the Purple Flame Mad Lion!
Grinning, Huang Xiang held the Flare Silver Branch and joyfully ran back.
Looking at the Flare Silver Branch tightly clutched in Huang Xiang’s hands, Su Yuan couldn’t help but feel a bit touched.
"Why would you hold onto this Silver Branch if you were about to die? If you had dropped it, that purple lion might not have chased you."
Huang Xiang paused, then scratched his head awkwardly, "I didn’t even think of that. I just focused on bringing it out..."
Hearing this, Su Yuan felt both annoyed and amused, but also slightly moved.
This brother was worth keeping around!
When things got tough, he wouldn’t abandon you!
Su Yuan dismissed the Great Sun Burning Body Technique, and the white flames quickly faded from his body.
At that moment, a wave of extreme weakness and pain engulfed him, causing him to stagger.
"Su Yuan?!" Read the latest on novelbuddy
Huang Xiang reached out to support him, seeing Su Yuan’s pale face and clenched brows, with sweat profusely streaming down his forehead.
"Su Yuan, what’s wrong?" Huang Xiang asked quickly.
"I’m fine, just overextended myself. My body’s a bit exhausted..."
After taking a few deep breaths, Su Yuan steadied himself.
Seeing this, Huang Xiang handed the Flare Silver Branch to Su Yuan, then moved forward to retrieve the Purple Flame Mad Lion’s Star Core, handing it to Su Yuan as well.
Su Yuan glanced at the two items before putting them into his Space Ring.
"Let’s head down the mountain..." Su Yuan began, but then paused, noticing something. He frowned and looked ahead.
Not far away, two Silver Early Stage Elite Star Beasts, along with over a dozen Bronze Star Beasts, were following the commotion and heading towards them!
"This is really bad timing..." Su Yuan thought.
After using White Flame Burning Body, his body was extremely weak, his Star Power nearly depleted, and all his Summoning Beasts were in cooldown.
If they couldn’t descend the mountain quickly, once his Star Power was completely drained, he wouldn’t just be torn apart by Star Beasts. The Fire Miasma on Moyang Peak would erode his mind as well.
How could he fend them off...
Just then, Huang Xiang stepped forward, standing in front of Su Yuan.
"Su Yuan, you go first!" Huang Xiang took a deep breath, staring at the slowly approaching Star Beasts ahead, "With my Adaptation, it shouldn’t be hard to hold them off for a while. I’ll find a chance to escape and meet you later!"
Su Yuan was stunned, then chuckled, "Not hard? Do I look that easy to fool?
Besides, I’m currently powerless. Any random Star Beast could eat me on the way."
Seeing Su Yuan expose his intentions, Huang Xiang’s momentum faltered, his face turning into a grimace, "So what do we do now?"
"You haven’t used up much of your Star Power, right?" Su Yuan suddenly asked.
Still wary of the approaching Star Beasts, Huang Xiang replied without turning his head, "Almost none. But the problem is, I can’t beat them..."
"Then I’ll make sure you can!"
Su Yuan’s ring flashed, and he took out the Star Core Huang Xiang had just handed him.
"System, consume Star Dust and extract ’Boiling Blood’!"
As Star Dust was consumed, a bright light erupted in Su Yuan’s hand. Within moments, a glowing blue Star Card appeared in his hand.
Sensing the commotion behind him, Huang Xiang turned to see Su Yuan handing him a blue Star Card, depicting a purple lion with boiling blood.
"This is... that purple lion’s skill? Su Yuan, you extracted a Blue Card from it?!"
Su Yuan nodded, "Equip it."
"But..."
"No buts, or we’ll both die here!"
"Alright!" Faced with life and death, Huang Xiang didn’t hesitate. He immediately used Star Power to communicate with the Star Card, equipping "Boiling Blood."
Huang Xiang looked up, only to see Su Yuan handing him another blue Star Card, this one depicting a black Bull Demon. It was the "Blast Bull Demon Fist" from the Flame Bull Demon!
"You use fists, right? Take this too, just in case you can’t win."
Huang Xiang clenched his fists, staring intently at Su Yuan.
Su Yuan chuckled, "Hurry up. Those Star Beasts are closing in. I’m counting on you to get me down the mountain!"
Clenching his jaw, Huang Xiang nodded firmly. He then took the "Blast Bull Demon Fist" and equipped it as well.
"Alright, it’s all up to you now." Su Yuan patted Huang Xiang’s shoulder, then stepped back a few paces.
Huang Xiang turned to face the approaching Star Beasts. Instead of charging forward, he raised his right hand and struck his own chest heavily!
"Puh!"
With a groan, Huang Xiang spat out a mouthful of blood.
Already injured from the Purple Flame Mad Lion’s attack, this made it worse!
Startled, Su Yuan quickly realized Huang Xiang’s intent.

At that moment, Huang Xiang activated Boiling Blood!
In an instant, boiling blood surged from his body, enveloping him completely!
"I will get you out of here!"
Huang Xiang roared and then charged towards the Star Beasts...
