Supreme Star Card Master

”More than a decade ago, due to space turbulence, a Spiritualized Divine Tree was accidentally lost.

The growth of that Divine Tree wasn’t high, but it was one of the earlier ones... Could it be this one in front of us?”

”Is that so?”

Yin Ju and the others nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this and had nothing more to say.

The most important thing now is to break the formation quickly and attack these human experts of the sect.

But now, even Gang Lan, whom Yin Ju saw as a formidable subordinate, was slain by this human on the battlefield...

”Lord Yin Ju, what do we do now?” Hun Ling asked.

The nearby Demon Kings, Tong Kun, the tall slim old man, and others also looked over, their eyes serious but tinged with a hint of amusement.

Demon Kings aren’t like cabbages; Lei Li, Li Xuan, and Gang Lan were all elites under Yin Ju’s command as Wind Soldiers.

Having them slain one after another is a severe loss for Yin Ju, who, as a vice commander of the Wind Soldiers, has not only suffered significant losses but also had his honor diminished!

But in just this moment, Yin Ju, who had been experiencing a downturn in his mood, regained his calm.

”Tong Kun, Sou... what do you think we ought to do?”

Yin Ju’s tone was mild, betraying no emotions.

Sou, the tall slim old man, was the High Stage Demon King sent by the Netherworld Imperial Court to assist.

The hearts of the Demon Kings tightened. Could it mean he wants us to send our people up again?

Even Gang Lan, who wielded a Holy Artifact and was immensely powerful, couldn’t compete with that human on the platform, let alone the other Demon Kings?

Sou immediately suggested: ”The Wind Soldiers were all selected through rigorous competition; Gang Lan is considered one of the top Low Stage Demon Kings. Now that even Gang Lan is no match... I’d say, let’s just give up on this Sword Platform?”

Sou spoke while cautiously observing Yin Ju.

He was voicing the reality, but it was clear he didn’t want his subordinates to suffer losses on the platform.

After all, the Wind Soldiers have already lost quite a few people to the Sword Platform.

Not only Sou, but the others were also watching Yin Ju.

”Very well.” Unexpectedly, Yin Ju agreed outright, calmly stating to them, ”Indeed, if Gang Lan isn’t a match, sending others up won’t make much of a difference either.”

Sou and others were taken aback by Yin Ju’s easy agreement.

Rumor had it that this Great Demon King, who had ascended to the Ninth Stage in the last world conquest, wasn’t one to be trifled with...

As they pondered this, Yin Ju continued speaking:

”In the battle on the Sword Platform, our elite troops have gone all out, yet this human is too formidable, making forced combat unwise.

But when it comes to the later stages of breaking the formation, the experts from the various great courts will have to heed my command...”

Yin Ju cast a gaze over Tong Kun, Chuntong, Sou, and others, with a hint of a cold smile at the corners of his mouth:

”If anyone shows any hesitation or delay, they will be defying the joint command of the Five Great Royal Courts. At that time, you can’t blame me for being ruthless with my subordinates...!”

Upon hearing this, the hearts of the Demon Kings from each Royal Court sank.

Indeed, Wind Soldier Deputy Commander Yin Ju is no easy character!

Observing the changes in their expressions, Yin Ju inwardly chuckled derisively.

Are my people the only ones to die? It’s not that simple!

Understanding the effect of the Sword Platform, Yin Ju had already been calculating in secret.

In one-on-one battles on the Sword Platform, my people go.

If it’s truly impossible to break through all the Sword Platforms and we need to forcefully break the formation...

Then these people from the Royal Courts will have no excuse to linger behind.

And when breaking the formation... the number of lives to be sacrificed will be more than just a few Demon Kings!

As they discussed, no one noticed Chuntong on the side, closely watching the Glazed Tianqing in Su Yuan’s hand, a hint of greed flickering in his eyes.

”A Holy Artifact of the Life Law...” Chuntong’s eyes gleamed, his gaze becoming more intense, ”Such a treasure in this human’s hands is truly a waste.”
