The Heavenly Demon Cult was familiar, as were the enemies. The only difference was that Su Han was no longer the sa Su Han.
Regarding the Seven Stars Sect, Su Han only wanted to kill Ye Chuanfeng. But as for the Heavenly Demon Cult, he wanted to annihilate every last one of them.
Suddenly, a familiar figure passed in front of Su Han. He had dark skin and a square face that was imposing without being angry. It was Leng Rufeng, whom he had not seen in a long ti.
Although Leng Rufeng was the father of the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign, he had infiltrated deep into the Seven Stars Sect. He beca one of the ten Great Elders and successfully took control of the Enforcent Hall. One could say that Leng Rufeng’s undercover mission had been extrely successful. Had it not been for Ye Chuanfeng erging at a critical mont, the Seven Stars Sect would have likely been destroyed long ago.
After the war ended, Leng Rufeng went into seclusion to recover from severe injuries, and Su Han had heard nothing of him since. Today, however, he was reunited with an old acquaintance—an enemy.
"Greetings, Elder Leng!"
Several Heavenly Demon Cult disciples following Su Han bowed their heads respectfully. Su Han followed suit, but Leng Rufeng rely grunted in acknowledgnt. He did not linger, heading straight for the Demon Palace, apparently on so urgent business.
He’s at the Supre Realm Sixth Layer. If I could break through to the Supre Realm and use the Eight Extres Star Array, perhaps I could slay him.
Su Han pondered this. Leng Rufeng’s strength surpassed Qin Wushuang’s, so killing him would be quite difficult. Not letting himself get carried away, Su Han refocused all his thoughts on Qin Wushuang.
I’ll kill Qin Wushuang first!
After entering the Heavenly Demon Cult, Su Han parted ways with the other disciples. His residence was located outside the Unparalleled Hall, within the Core Area, where ordinary disciples were forbidden from entering.
Along the way, a few disciples greeted Su Han. Imitating Qin Tian’s personality, he responded to so while ignoring others with disdain.
Finally, he arrived at his residence, just outside the Unparalleled Hall.
Qin Tian was not Qin Wushuang’s only disciple. However, as none of the disciples respected one another, Qin Tian wasted no words on them, nor did he reveal his true identity.
I wonder which important person is coming. Not only Leng Rufeng but even old dog Qin has gone to the Demon Palace.
When Su Han learned that Qin Wushuang was not in the Unparalleled Hall, his eyes lit up in pleasant surprise.
He did not know who the important person was, but now he could walk openly into the Unparalleled Hall. Under the pretext of making preparations, he had the perfect opportunity to set up the Eight Extres Star Array.
Qin Wushuang’s absence was a great convenience for Su Han. In less than an hour, he finished setting up the array, needing only to wait for Qin Wushuang’s return.
Everything is ready. Now I’m just waiting for the prey to fall into the trap!
A sharp glint flashed in Su Han’s eyes as murderous intent surged within him.
However, Qin Wushuang did not return quickly. Su Han waited for a long ti before he finally arrived, his brow furrowed and his expression solemn.
It seems this important visitor doesn’t co with good intentions!
Seeing Qin Wushuang’s expression, Su Han had a sudden realization and grew curious about this person.
The Heavenly Demon Cult can’t compare to a top-tier power like the Demon Slayer Sect, but it’s still the hegemon of a province and even has a Supre Realm Ninth Layer expert. What could make them so cautious? Could it be a Saint? But there are no Saints in Qingmo Province, so where did this one co from?
While Su Han was puzzled, he did not forget the most crucial matter at hand.
"Master, you’ve returned," Su Han said, bowing and fawning with practiced ease. "The tea is brewed, and I’ve arranged everything as you requested. Would you like to inspect my work for any necessary improvents?"
Qin Wushuang had many disciples, but Qin Tian was his favorite due to his flattery and sycophancy. Otherwise, why would an important task like arranging the hall be entrusted to him? Qin Tian’s character was that of a typical villain, bullying those beneath him while fawning over his superiors. Since Su Han had assud his identity, he had to emulate his personality perfectly. If he slipped up, all his previous efforts would be for naught.
Of course, he was also hoping to coax so information out of Qin Wushuang and learn the identity of this important visitor.
"Hmm, well done," Qin Wushuang said dismissively, his mind clearly elsewhere. "You just broke through to the Heavenly King Realm. This Consolidating Essence Elixir will help stabilize your cultivation. Take it. Don’t co see for the next two days. I have matters to attend to."
He waved his hand, trying to get rid of Su Han.
But Su Han had no intention of leaving so easily. He stood his ground, hoping to provoke a reaction and probe for more information. "Master," he pressed, "I heard a Saint is coming to our Heavenly Demon Cult. Is it a Saint from the Demon Slayer Sect?"
"Where did you hear such a rumor?" Qin Wushuang’s gaze snapped toward him, his eyes sharp.
So I guessed correctly. Su Han knew his speculation was right; the important visitor was indeed a Saint Realm expert. As for whether they were from the Demon Slayer Sect, that remained unclear.
"Master, the Myriad Treasures Pavilion and the Demon Slayer Sect are at war, aren’t they? I heard the other disciples discussing it," Su Han said. He had already prepared his excuse, and his story was seamless.
"It seems you all have too much free ti on your hands, gossiping about such things. Don’t ask what you shouldn’t, and don’t say what you shouldn’t. Understand?" Qin Wushuang did not answer the question, instead staring at Su Han with a gaze that exerted trendous pressure.
However, Su Han’s mind was exceptionally sharp. He could deduce the answer from Qin Wushuang’s words and attitude.
It seems I really did guess correctly. The visitor isn’t just a Saint, but a Saint from the Demon Slayer Sect. But there are no Saint Realm masters in Qingmo Province, and the Heavenly Demon Cult is just a minor power, insignificant in the eyes of the Demon Slayer Sect. Why would they send a Saint here? Even if it’s to forge an alliance, the great powers of other Dao Provinces are all stronger than the Heavenly Demon Cult. Unless... unless there’s so hidden secret involved. For instance, perhaps this Saint didn’t co here intentionally, but is rely passing by and ca on a whim.
Within Qingmo Province, there seed to be only one Saint who fit that description.
Su Han’s eyes narrowed slightly. Piecing together the clues, he ford a hypothesis.
The Swordsaint!
After the battle in Ning Country, the Swordsaint had been severely injured and had fled, even managing to escape Saint You Heng’s pursuit. He must be gravely wounded and in need of a place to heal. The Heavenly Demon Cult would be a good choice.
Although the guess was bold, Su Han felt it was highly probable. If he were in the Swordsaint’s shoes, he would not be content to just run away. He would try to take root here and find an opportunity for revenge.
If it is the Swordsaint, then I might just catch a very big fish this ti!
Su Han’s heart grew cold with resolve. To him, the Swordsaint was an enemy who had to be killed. If an opportunity arose, he would not let it pass.
But the Swordsaint was a problem for later. The most important thing now was to kill Qin Wushuang and thoroughly eradicate his Heart Demon.
With that thought, he composed himself and began to back away respectfully.
"Array, activate!"
However, the very mont Qin Wushuang’s Heart Spirit relaxed, Su Han activated the Eight Extres Star Array.
Blood debts must ultimately be repaid in blood
