Chapter 494: Chapter 494: Su Han’s Plan

A blood-stained head tumbled to the ground. Qin Wushuang’s face was frozen with intense unwillingness and anger; he had clearly died unable to rest in peace. But he was dead. Su Han had prepared for a long time and risked his life multiple times for this moment. How could he possibly let him live?

With Qin Wushuang’s death, the last trace of the Heart Demon in Su Han’s heart also vanished like smoke.

At this moment, Su Han thought of the Empress, of Su Tian, of the Qin Family, and of Wang Tianqing. Ever since his Dragon Soul was stolen, hatred had been etched into his very bones. It was like a venomous snake, gnawing at his heart day and night, causing him insufferable pain and robbing him of sleep and appetite.

Now, the past was finally laid to rest. This single strike not only slew Qin Wushuang but also severed Su Han’s ties to his old vengeance. From this day forward, every day would be a new day. Everything related to the Tianqing Dynasty would become a memory.

Su Han let out a long breath, as if expelling all of it from his body. He felt a wave of relief wash over him, as if an invisible shackle had been unlocked and had fallen away, freeing him from its suppression.

BOOM!

A powerful aura erupted from within Su Han’s body like a volcano, instantly shaking the entire Unparalleled Hall.

Su Han’s Invincible Tao Xin had broken through!

He cultivated the Divine Method of the Four Extremes of the Dao Heart and had long been stuck at the First Extreme: Dominating by Force. Now, with his Heart Demon vanquished, he instantly gained enlightenment and broke through to the Second Extreme: Dominating by Intent.

At this moment, Su Han’s aura was no longer merely invincible. It had become an intent—a profound and esoteric concept. It was akin to the presence of an emperor long on the throne, capable of subjugating the masses with a single glance.

With me, I am invincible!

Su Han’s eyes shone with a brilliant light, as blazing as the sun. As his invincible intent surged forth, it could effortlessly shatter the will of others and force them into submission.

This was an unexpected boon. Su Han familiarized himself with it for a moment before concealing his invincible intent.

Although Qin Wushuang was dead, his quest for vengeance was not over. The entire Heavenly Demon Cult was also his enemy. Now, an excellent opportunity lay before him. If he missed it, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

*Soul Searching Technique!*

Su Han executed the Soul Searching Technique. His vast Divine Sense plunged into Qin Wushuang’s sea of consciousness like an invisible hand, searching for the memories he desired. With the current strength of his Divine Sense, using the technique was effortless. However, Qin Wushuang was dead, and his soul would soon dissipate, leaving Su Han little time.

But it was enough. Before Qin Wushuang’s soul could completely dissipate, Su Han had already found the information he sought.

It really is the Swordsaint!

Su Han reopened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing through their dark depths. He had learned from Qin Wushuang’s memories that the important figure who had come to the Heavenly Demon Cult was indeed the Swordsaint, just as he had suspected. Previously, his trip to the Demon Hall with Leng Rufeng and the others had been to meet this very person. The Swordsaint had now arrived at the Heavenly Demon Cult and was staying in the Demon Hall.

Although the Swordsaint had lost an arm and was severely injured, he was still an outstanding figure in the Saint Realm, and the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign and his followers naturally dared not offend him. The Swordsaint was now recuperating in the Demon Hall and had ordered the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign and the others to monitor the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, paying special attention to any news about Saint You Heng. He planned to seek revenge once his injuries had healed.

This was the information Su Han had gathered.

The Swordsaint wants to control the Heavenly Demon Cult, ready to counterattack and take revenge at any moment. How could I possibly let him succeed?

Su Han’s mind raced as he quickly considered his options. If a conflict erupted between the severely wounded Swordsaint and the restless Heavenly Demon Cult, both sides would surely suffer heavy losses. The Swordsaint was a saint of the Demon Slayer Sect and had twice participated in plans to hunt him down, making him an enemy Su Han had to kill. As for the Heavenly Demon Cult, their grudge was long-standing, and Su Han had always wanted to annihilate them but lacked the strength and opportunity. But now, the opportunity had arrived. If he could instigate a conflict between the Swordsaint and the Heavenly Demon Cult, he could profit from their strife.

However, sparking a conflict between them was a difficult problem. The grievously injured Swordsaint’s most urgent need was to heal. Meanwhile, the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign and his followers, intimidated by both the Swordsaint’s power and the Demon Slayer Sect behind him, dared not cause any offense.

It seemed Su Han would have to become the fuse himself. Although risky, he felt it was a gamble worth taking for the sake of revenge. With this thought, Su Han made his decision.

He did not keep Qin Wushuang’s corpse, instead allowing the Great Majestic Demon King to absorb it. Afterward, he smoothed over the traces of battle inside the Unparalleled Hall and rearranged everything, restoring its original state.

*Thousand Changes and Transformations!*

Su Han performed the technique again, but this time, he transformed not into Qin Tian, but into Qin Wushuang! Even though Su Han was not a Supreme Realm expert, no one could tell him from the real Qin Wushuang based on appearance and aura alone, so long as he avoided combat.

I shouldn’t dispel the Eight Extremes Star Array just yet. I might be able to use it one more time!

Su Han glanced at the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes around him. With a wave of his hand, all the Holy Patterns dimmed, and the Eight Extremes Star Array returned to a state of tranquility.

He stepped out of the Unparalleled Hall to find everything normal. The Eight Extremes Star Array had the power to seal space and time, completely isolating the hall from the outside world. Thus, despite the intense battle between Su Han and Qin Wushuang, the outside world remained completely oblivious. After confirming the exterior was clear, Su Han re-entered the Unparalleled Hall.

The best way to provoke a conflict was to assume Qin Wushuang’s identity and confront the Swordsaint. This would enrage the Swordsaint, provoking him into attacking the Heavenly Demon Cult. In turn, the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign and the others would have no choice but to defend themselves. Once the battle erupted, the situation would spiral out of their control.

But dealing with the Swordsaint was no easy task. Su Han decided to use the Cursing Killing Nether Technique and the Divine Prohibition Heavenly Method as a basis to create a special poison. It needed to be potent enough to injure the Swordsaint but without compromising his own safety.

Over the next few days, Su Han worked tirelessly on this poison. After countless failures, he finally succeeded.

*Forbidden Curse Poison!*

With his preparations complete, Su Han quickly left the Unparalleled Hall. To avoid any unforeseen complications, he decided to act today.

Disguised as Qin Wushuang, Su Han moved unimpeded through the Heavenly Demon Cult and soon reached the Demon Hall. This was the Heavenly Demon Cult’s grand council hall, a solemn and austere place, but it was currently occupied by the Swordsaint.

"My lord, the Sect Leader has sent me to deliver Healing Treasures!" Su Han called out, using the excuse he knew the Swordsaint had given the Earth Fiend Demon Sovereign to gather such items.

"Come in!"

The great doors of the Demon Hall rumbled open as the Swordsaint’s voice echoed out. Without a change in expression, Su Han strode inside.

My revenge all comes down to this moment!
