Oxygenated blood is transported to the entire body via the Aorta. At the same time, coronary arteries branch out from the Aorta in order to supply blood into heart muscles.

My question is: What happens to the de-oxygenated blood that is resulted after supplying O2 to the heart wall? Does it return into the Right Ventricle via the Vena Cava OR is there some other mechanism involved?

Sorry for the late reply

There are blood vessels that allow this deoxygenated blood to return, either through the superior or inferior vana cava.

I was too quick to ask this question. I found the answer in my text book. But thanks for your answer @andreathomas03

My text book answer:- The coronary arteries branch into capillaries and supply blood to the heart wall. Then after that the de-oxygenated blood is collected into a number of veins that join to form the corona sinus which opens into the Right Atrium.
