Fate-Defying Demon Emperor-Chapter 263 - 250: The Battle Resumes

Crimson blood sprayed through the air, tracing a stark, beautiful arc that was impossible to miss. Even in death, Su Tian's face was twisted with deep hatred and crazed killing intent. Unfortunately, his vengeance had failed. This time, Su Han had used his Divine Sense to shatter Su Tian's sea of consciousness, ensuring he would not repeat his past mistake.

Beheaded and with his Divine Sense scattered, Su Tian was now well and truly dead.

THUD!

His corpse fell from the sky, smashing into the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.

Su Han didn't bother to take the corpse. Although Su Tian had possessed a Supreme Physical Body, his Qi-Blood had already declined by the end. Even if Su Han devoured it with the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art, it would yield little, so he naturally couldn't be bothered to deal with the remains.

"Phew."

Gazing at Su Tian's body, Su Han let out a slow breath. The thorn that had been lodged in his heart had finally been removed.

With Su Tian dead, his Heart Demon was vanquished. From now on, Su Han's cultivation would proceed with clear thoughts and a smooth, unimpeded path.

His grudges with Qin Wushuang and the Heavenly Demon Cult, as well as his involvement in the empress incident, were merely entanglements, not the root of his turmoil. Thus, they had not become thorns in his heart.

"Su Tian... is just dead? Like that?"

A dead silence fell over the land. Everyone stared, wide-eyed and horrified, at Su Tian's corpse, their faces brimming with shock and disbelief.

Before this battle, they had expected a fierce fight between a dragon and a tiger, and had even believed Su Han to be at a disadvantage.

But to their astonishment, the duel ended with shocking speed. From beginning to end, Su Han had thoroughly suppressed Su Tian. Whether it was his Physical Body, Heaven and Earth Physique, weapons, Martial Techniques, or other treasures—even after undergoing Demonification—he was no match for Su Han and was beheaded with a single slash.

This... this was simply unbelievable!

No one could have imagined that the duel would end like this. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Su Han truly deserves his spot on the prodigy list. He's just too powerful! Is he really only at the First Layer of the Physique Realm? I feel like he's even stronger than a Martial Artist at the Seventh or Eighth Layer."

"It's been over three hundred years since Qingzhou produced a prodigy ranked on the list. We never expected such a huge surprise this time. Su Han's future is limitless!"

"I heard Su Han is the Ninth Prince of the Tianqing Dynasty. To help Su Tian achieve the Dragon Phoenix Saint Body, the empress had his Dragon Soul dug out. But who would have thought that instead of becoming a cripple, Su Han would rise so powerfully? For a prodigy like him, I have no idea what that pig-headed Wang Tianqing was thinking when he gave him up."

After a brief silence, the crowd exploded into an uproar, and endless discussions erupted.

In the crowd, Wang Tianqing, the very man who was just called pig-headed, wore an incredibly ugly expression. His fists were clenched so tightly it seemed he wanted to lunge out and kill Su Han that very instant.

You bastard! How dare you kill my Tian'er? You've destroyed my last hope! I will tear you to pieces!

Su Tian, on whom Wang Tianqing had pinned such great hopes, had failed again. This time, he was dead for good, with no chance of reconstructing his Physical Body. This was a massive blow to Wang Tianqing, and his eyes began to gleam with a touch of madness. He swore to himself that he would eliminate his own kin in the name of righteousness and kill Su Han.

Useless! To think he still couldn't kill Su Han!

On another side of the crowd, the Great Qian King was also seething with uncontrollable fury, utterly disappointed in Su Tian. A sharp light glinted in his eyes as he rapidly formulated a new plan for revenge.

Su Han had not only killed his three sons but had also destroyed his hopes of advancing further. This elevated his hatred for Su Han to an unprecedented intensity. He would know no peace until Su Han was dead.

Wang Tianqing and the Great Qian King weren't the only ones who harbored a strong intent to kill Su Han. At that moment, Qin Wushuang's face was contorted with rage, his teeth grinding audibly.

The overwhelming pressure of a Supreme erupted from his body like a storm sweeping across heaven and earth. He was trembling uncontrollably, a sign that his killing intent was about to boil over.

Su Tian was his own grandson—blood is thicker than water—and he had invested an immense amount of effort into him. Now that Su Han had killed him, the bloodline of the Qin Family was completely severed. How could he possibly contain his rage?

"You little beast, I'll kill you!"

Qin Wushuang roared, instantly condensing the Gang Wind into a Sword Radiance that tore through the Void and slashed toward Su Han with overwhelming killing intent.

Unfortunately, he couldn't harm Su Han in the slightest, as Ye Chuanfeng had already made his move. Starlight coalesced into an arrow, streaking forth like a Meteor Fall to directly pierce the Gang Wind Sword Radiance. Without losing momentum, the arrow continued flying toward Qin Wushuang.

In the end, it was the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign who intervened, blocking Ye Chuanfeng's attack and saving Qin Wushuang.

"Don't be impulsive!"

The Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign suppressed Qin Wushuang's killing intent. With Ye Chuanfeng and Lei Ming present, it was virtually impossible for them to kill Su Han. Furthermore, Ye Chuanfeng still had the Holy Artifact, the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda. If a real fight broke out, they would certainly be at a disadvantage.

Qin Wushuang's eyes looked ready to burst from their sockets. His crimson gaze was fixed on Su Han like that of a Fierce Ghost, as if he wanted to devour his flesh and drink his blood.

"What? You lost the duel and now you want to be a sore loser? Do you really think my Seven Stars Sect is so easily bullied?"

His body surging with starlight, Ye Chuanfeng stared coldly at the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign and Qin Wushuang. He was simmering with a fire that he had no place to vent.

"We concede this time," the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign declared, "but your triumph won't last long. Our Heavenly Demon Cult has marked Su Han for death!"

The Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign positioned Qin Wushuang behind him and faced Ye Chuanfeng's pressure head-on. A tide of bone-chilling Evil Qi surged from his body.

He knew Ye Chuanfeng had latched onto the powerful Tian Lou Saint, but he was not one to back down. So what if he couldn't destroy the Seven Stars Sect? He could still kill Su Han!

Today's failure didn't mean they were abandoning their killing intent. As long as Su Han had not yet reached his full potential, they would never give up.

This Su Han had to die!

"You're welcome to try," Ye Chuanfeng sneered. He was not the least bit concerned by the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign's threat. Su Han was about to meet the Tian Lou Saint, after which he would be under the saint's protection. At that point, even if the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to lay a hand on Su Han.

"We shall see!"

The Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign snorted coldly, in no mood for a war of words with Ye Chuanfeng. Su Tian was dead and the battle was over; he didn't want any more trouble. He turned to leave with Qin Wushuang.

"The battle is over. Su Han's undefeated myth continues. I bet he might even be able to achieve Instant Sanctification in the future."

"But now the Heavenly Demon Cult has him in their sights. He'll have to be careful to avoid being assassinated. What a shame that would be."

"The duel is finished! Everyone, let's disperse!"

As the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign prepared to depart, the spectators began to do the same. Su Han glanced at the Demon Sovereign and Qin Wushuang, then sheathed his Black Blade.

I will kill those two sooner or later. But for now, my strength is insufficient, so I can only suppress my killing intent for the time being.

"Wait!"

Just then, a haughty voice suddenly rang out, taking everyone by surprise.

Su Han looked up to see Zi Qiong hovering in the air, looking down on him.

"An undefeated myth? Such arrogance. Today, I will be the one to shatter this so-called myth and teach you the meaning of status!"
