Previously, Saint You Heng had told him that as long as he broke through to the Supreme Realm, his comings and goings would no longer be restricted. Now that he had achieved this, it was time to return to the Seven Stars Sect and settle accounts with Ye Chuanfeng.

Although Ye Chuanfeng was a powerful practitioner at the Supreme Realm Ninth Layer, Su Han was confident he could slay him, having acquired both the Glyph Secret and One Sword Breaks Myriad Spells. After all, despite Ye Chuanfeng’s high realm, his innate talent and combat power were average, and he didn’t even possess a single Holy Artifact. Compared to him, Su Han held a significant advantage.

His master, Lei Ming, had been suppressed under Yaoguang Peak and even publicly punished. His current situation was unknown, weighing heavily on Su Han’s mind and filling him with worry and anxiety. He had previously lacked the strength to intervene, but now that he saw a chance to save his master, he could no longer hold back. The war between the Demon Slayer Sect and the Myriad Treasures Pavilion had just ended, and all the major powers were focused on them. Su Han decided to seize this opportunity to quickly infiltrate the Seven Stars Sect, slay Ye Chuanfeng, and rescue his master.

"I don’t object to you seeking revenge. As I said before, once you break through to the Supreme Realm, you are free to go as you please. However, for safety’s sake, I will give you a Saint Treasure!"

When Saint You Heng heard that Su Han was bent on revenge, he neither refused nor tried to retain him. He knew Su Han’s character well and understood that once a decision was made, he would not easily change it. Moreover, he believed in Su Han’s strength to achieve his goals. Of course, he didn’t want any accidents to befall Su Han, which was why he had prepared a Saint Treasure, just in case.

WHOOSH!

Saint You Heng stretched out his hand, instantly withdrawing a deep, dark Holy Jade from his Storage Ring. Strands of flocculent energy flowed within the jade, making it as stunningly beautiful as an exquisite piece of art.

"This is a Saint Treasure I crafted personally, containing the full force of one of my strikes. If your life is in danger, you can activate it. Even if it cannot kill your enemy, it will at least allow you to protect yourself."

Although Ye Chuanfeng was just a Supreme Realm Martial Artist with average strength, he still had a slight connection with the Tian Lou Saint. It was always better to be safe than sorry. After the incidents with Swordsaint and Mad Lion Saint, Saint You Heng held Su Han in even higher regard.

"Thank you, Saint!"

Su Han naturally wouldn’t refuse such a kind gesture from Saint You Heng. However, he decided he would only use the profound Holy Jade in a life-or-death situation. After all, another’s power was ultimately their own; to become truly powerful, he had to rely on himself.

"By the way, I can make you a promise now," Saint You Heng spoke again, extending a favor to Su Han. "If your master Lei Ming is willing, I can guarantee him the position of Sect Leader of the Seven Stars Sect! Although I am not a supreme overlord, within a radius of five Daozhou, my word is my bond. With my support, no one would dare to target the Seven Stars Sect lightly. Once Ye Chuanfeng is dead and the Seven Stars Sect is leaderless, it will be the perfect opportunity for Lei Ming to take charge as Sect Leader."

Of course, Saint You Heng was not familiar with Lei Ming; the favor was naturally intended for Su Han.

"Thank you, Saint, for your high regard, but this matter will depend on my master’s wishes."

Su Han expressed his gratitude once more. He understood the purpose behind Saint You Heng’s favor but wanted to respect his master’s decision.

"I wish you swift and complete success!" Saint You Heng nodded, said no more, and waved goodbye.

After bidding farewell to Saint You Heng, Su Han didn’t leave Huayang City immediately but went to find Master Gong Ming. With his current strength, a head-on confrontation with Ye Chuanfeng would still be difficult. In his plan for revenge, formations would be a major asset. After all, he possessed the memories of the white-haired man and had a considerable understanding of Formation Mastery. Furthermore, he had obtained the Glyph Secret from the Nine Secrets, which allowed him to set up all manner of laws and formations with incredible speed and power.

Formations were a crucial factor in this plan, so Su Han needed to acquire the necessary Array Formation materials from Master Gong Ming. He had already prepared a specific design, having searched the white-haired man’s memories and found one called the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation. This formation was based on the Eight Gates of Qimen Dunjia and could be deployed using various treasures—the stronger the treasures, the greater the formation’s power.

Currently, Su Han had eight Holy Artifacts: the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda, Dragon Slaying Demon Banner, Kunpeng Holy Feather, Holy Thunder Golden Wheel, Reincarnation Path Realm, Cold Iron Holy Sword, Sea Eye Holy Stone, and the newly advanced Black Blade. Aside from the Black Blade, all these Holy Artifacts were his spoils of war, which he had been reluctant to sell. This time, he planned to use these eight Holy Artifacts as the core to deploy the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation. Its power could definitely reach the level of a Low-Grade Holy Formation, which he figured would be more than enough to deal with a single Ye Chuanfeng.

"You actually have so many Holy Artifacts!" Master Gong Ming’s eyes nearly popped out of his head when he heard about the formation Su Han intended to deploy.

Although he was a Saint Realm powerhouse, he only possessed a single Holy Artifact, the Myriad Laws Holy Banner. He had only managed to refine it successfully after his breakthrough, and only then with the help of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion. Yet Su Han, who had just broken through to the Supreme Realm, possessed a terrifying number of Holy Artifacts. Among them, the Reincarnation Path Realm and the Cold Iron Holy Sword were Intermediate Grade Holy Artifacts of immeasurable value.

Of course, Master Gong Ming wasn’t envious, merely shocked. He quickly composed himself and began to study the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation that Su Han described.

"Brilliant, truly brilliant! The creator of this formation must be a top-tier Array Master. This formation isn’t constrained by Grade but is limited only by the treasures used to deploy it. As long as the treasures are of a high enough Grade, it can unleash infinite power. If you had eight Semi-Devine Artifacts, it could probably be considered a Divine Formation!"

Master Gong Ming was a true Array Master, and from Su Han’s description alone, he was instantly filled with excitement for the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation. Su Han, in turn, was not stingy and imparted the formation to him. After all, Master Gong Ming had risked his life to help him numerous times—a debt of gratitude Su Han was determined to repay.

Of course, setting up this formation was no easy task. Besides requiring eight treasures of the same level, it also called for many special Array Formation materials, along with various intricate details and challenges. Even with Su Han teaching him, it would likely be very difficult for Master Gong Ming to deploy it. As for Su Han, if he only had the white-haired man’s memories, he too would struggle to set it up in a short time. Having the Glyph Secret, however, was a different story. Su Han was confident he could succeed.

Soon, Su Han obtained all the Array Formation materials he needed from Master Gong Ming. With everything ready, only revenge remained. After gathering his things, Su Han bid farewell to Master Gong Ming and finally left Huayang City, heading directly for Qingzhou.

Master, I’m coming to save you! With Qin Wushuang and the Heavenly Demon Cult wiped out, only Ye Chuanfeng is left!
