The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5184

Blood crusted Jared’s lips, and his face had gone bone white, a sight that dragged fear across every onlooker.

“Carry him to the healing chamber at once,” Saleto commanded.

Only hours earlier, Jared had finished mending his wounds and ascending in strength, yet now he lay battered worse than before. They trembled at the thought that his body might finally break.

Inside the stone chamber, they eased him onto a low slab. Saleto produced a pill and slipped it between Jared’s lips.

The medicine dissolved at once, its gentle warmth drifting through his meridians until a faint flush returned to his cheeks.

“He is safe,” Jhaelyn whispered, tears of joy sliding down her cheeks as she wrapped her fingers around Jared’s.

Jemina released the breath she had been holding, gratitude shining in her eyes.

Flaxseed patted his chest. “I nearly died of fright. I thought he’d die. Still, what a monster. He traded blows with an Earthly Immortal and even sent him fleeing.”

Saleto sighed. “Dioz escaped, but he will not rest. The Seventh Hall has made a mortal enemy of Malevolent Path Hall. We will know no peace.”

“Afraid?” Flaxseed scoffed. “With Jared around, why worry? Once he recovers, we will march on their den and wipe them out.”

Saleto offered a weary smile. He knew that the Malevolent Path Hall had a strong foundation, and he feared the next foe would be stronger still.

In the hush of the chamber, they kept silent vigil beside Jared. Outside, clouds broke at last and sunlight spilled across the scarred square, planting a fragile seed of hope in every heart.
