The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5211

Greenscale Gorge sits on the fringe of the Nine Serpent Mountain. Its leader is a third-tier Earthly Immortal Realm snake demon. Baldric is sending us as disposable knives.

“No problem. We’ll leave at once,” Jared said, accepting the test without a flicker of hesitation.

“Wait.” Baldric pointed to two burly wolf demon demons at his side. “You two go with them. If they try anything clever, kill them on the spot. “The wolf demons stepped forward and bowed. “Understood, Chief Blackwind.”

Jared exchanged a brief nod with Flaxseed, then followed the wolf demons out of the council hall.

Outside, Flaxseed muttered, “Told you the old brute had no good intentions—he hopes we’ll tear each other apart with the serpent. “I know,” Jared answered. “But we need information on the gorge anyway. Let’s go and adapt on the fly.”

They left Blackwind Stronghold for the east, the two wolf demon escorts jeering and snapping insults the whole way. Jared ignored them, setting a silent, relentless pace.

After half a day the path plunged into dense bamboo. Pale teal mist drifted between the stalks, carrying the sharp musk of snakes.

One wolf demon jerked a claw toward the haze. “Greenscale Gorge lies ahead. The leader is inside. Go prove yourselves—we’ll wait out here.”

Jared sensed their plan to collect the spoils afterward, but only told Flaxseed, “Time to head in.”
