Fate-Defying Demon Emperor-Chapter 52: The Blood Feud is Not Over Yet!

After his cultivation session ended, Su Han reined in his Heart Spirit and rose to leave.

Outside the secret chamber, Elder Kui, Tongyan, and Lu Yunxian were all waiting.

"The chamber shook just now, but it quickly stopped. I don’t know what happened!"

"It seems the outcome will be revealed shortly!"

Tongyan nodded, her gaze fixed on the chamber door with a solemn expression. Although she was hopeful, she couldn’t be certain if Su Han could withstand the erosion of the Black Blade. If he failed, he would become a Blade Slave, driven only by the instinct to kill. In that case, she would not show mercy and would personally execute him.

Elder Kui nodded in agreement. Spiritual Energy circulated within him as he locked his spiritual power onto the chamber door, ready to restrain Su Han the instant he showed any sign of failure.

"Little Han!" Lu Yunxian’s jade-like hands clenched tightly, her heart filled with tension.

CREAK!

Under their tense and heavy gazes, the door to the secret chamber opened.

A tall, disheveled young man dressed in black stepped out. He was incredibly handsome, exuding a stunning and peerless aura, like that of a nascent deity. The Su Han from before had been unremarkable in appearance and bearing. The current Su Han, however, was clad in black as dark as night, his demeanor a mix of righteous and wicked, and his features were extraordinarily refined.

A complete transformation! The term surfaced in Elder Kui’s mind.

"His Destiny has grown stronger, and this Aura—it’s definitely that of a Sacred Body!" Tongyan’s eyes also revealed her shock, as if she were seeing Su Han for the first time. There is a special resonance between Sacred Bodies, and at this moment, she could sense the Aura of Su Han’s Sacred Body without even using her Qi Observation Technique.

But how could this be? It was already a miracle that he had advanced from a Mortal Body to a Spiritual Body. Now, he had ascended from a Spiritual Body to a Sacred Body. If acquiring a Special Physique were so simple, then the so-called prodigies of the world would be a joke. He must be hiding a monumental secret!

Tongyan’s heart sank, but she had no intention of killing him to steal it. She was confident in her own innate talents and opportunities, which she believed were no less than anyone else’s. Moreover, she was not so narrow-minded as to be envious. However, others might not feel the same. Tongyan could only imagine the turmoil that would erupt if this news were to spread.

"Miss Tongyan, Elder Kui, thank you for your assistance. Su Han will never forget this great debt of gratitude!" Su Han bowed with his hands clasped, expressing his sincere thanks. Without their intervention, the Queen and Yan Liu would not have let the matter rest. Though Su Han had been prepared to fight to the death, it was naturally better to be alive.

"Your talent has exceeded my expectations, which is why I was willing to help you," Tongyan said, her composure regained as she stared intently at Su Han. "However, I am a businesswoman, and I believe in fair exchange. Therefore, I need you to promise me three things."

She made no attempt to disguise her purpose, which was in keeping with her forthright and sincere nature.

Su Han was silent for a moment before nodding in agreement. "Alright."

A small kindness should be repaid multifold, especially since they saved my life—twice.

"I haven’t decided on the three things yet," Tongyan said with a slight smile. "You’ll just have to owe me for now. I’ll tell you what they are when I think of them."

"How is the Great Crown Prince now?" Su Han asked. The Great Crown Prince possessed a Soul Jade and hadn’t died completely, a fact that remained a thorn in his side.

"The Tianqing Dynasty was powerless to help him reconstruct his physical body. Yan Liu has already taken him to the Seven Stars Sect!" Yan Liu’s actions might have deceived ordinary people, but not the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

The Seven Stars Sect! A sharp glint flashed in Su Han’s eyes. The Seven Stars Sect was the overlord of Qingzhou, ruling over dozens of nations, large and small. The Tianqing Dynasty was merely one of them. If the Great Crown Prince went to the Seven Stars Sect, not only could his physical body be reconstructed, but he might also grow even stronger.

"The Great Crown Prince Su Tian’s maternal grandfather is Qin Wushuang, one of the ten great elders of the Seven Stars Sect," Tongyan slowly explained. "With his help, Su Tian will surely be able to reconstruct his physical body and will become even more powerful in the future."

"They say a gentleman’s revenge can wait ten years, but I’m no gentleman, and I refuse to wait that long. I will join the Seven Stars Sect and kill Su Tian once and for all! But first, I must kill the Queen to avenge my mother!" A deadly chill flashed in Su Han’s eyes, his killing intent laid bare.

"In fact, I also suggest you go to the Seven Stars Sect," Tongyan said suddenly. "The Seven Stars Sect is the overlord of Qingzhou; the Tianqing Dynasty is too small a stage for you. Only the Seven Stars Sect can make you stronger.

"Besides, there is an elder in the Seven Stars Sect named Liu Rumei, who also possesses the Qingmu Spirit Body. She might have a way to cure Lu Yunxian’s illness!"

Liu Rumei? Su Han was visibly moved. Fairy Sister Yun Xian only has one year left to live, an enduring pain in my heart. The Spirit-Nurturing Flower can only provide temporary relief, not a cure. If I can heal Fairy Sister Yun Xian, I’ll face any peril necessary! I have to chase down Su Tian, become stronger, and heal Fairy Sister Yun Xian! All of this compels me to go to the Seven Stars Sect!

"This is my Jade Pendant," Tongyan said, handing him a red jade pendant carved with the character for ’Tong,’ which represented her identity. "With this, you can seek help from any Myriad Treasures Pavilion branch. Consider it my investment in you."

"Thank you!" Su Han did not refuse the red Jade Pendant. He accepted it and solemnly placed it inside his Bronze Ring.

"With this matter concluded, we are preparing to leave. You should come with us," Tongyan offered. Although Yan Liu had already left, the Queen and the Tianqing King were still here. If Su Han remained in the Tianqing Dynasty, he would inevitably face fierce retaliation. Leaving with them was the wisest choice.

But to Tongyan’s surprise, Su Han shook his head and refused.

"I still have some matters to attend to and cannot leave just yet, but I have a request. Could you first take Fairy Sister Yun Xian to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion branch nearest to the Seven Stars Sect? Once I’ve handled my affairs here, I will go and bring her back."

My biggest worry is Fairy Sister Yun Xian. Only if she is safe can I let go of everything else and focus on my revenge.

"The city closest to the Seven Stars Sect is Qian Yuan City. I can take her there, but you must promise me that you will stay alive." Tongyan had guessed his intentions, but unlike Lu Yunxian, she didn’t try to persuade him. Instead, she asked for his promise.

"I will not die!" Su Han looked at Tongyan and stated solemnly.

"Miss Tongyan, I entrust Fairy Sister Yun Xian to your care!" Partings are always sad, and Su Han didn’t want Fairy Sister Yun Xian to see his tears. He quickly changed the subject, formally entrusting her to Tongyan.

After they left, Su Han suppressed the reluctance in his heart as the familiar flames of hatred flared up once more. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Everything that happened today was thanks to that venomous Queen.

The Dragon Soul had been reclaimed, but the blood feud was not yet over.

Su Han turned his gaze toward the royal palace, his eyes cold and brimming with murderous intent.
