The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5540

Vermilion Demon Lord sneered and said, "I am the Vermilion Demon Lord. You dare trespass in my territory and even attempt to absorb Jared's soul? That is nothing short of suicide."

Stebarin's heart jumped in alarm. He hadn't expected such a powerful existence to be sealed within Jared's consciousness field.

"Vermilion Demon Lord?" Stebarin froze. He had heard of this name when he was in level six. Back then, Soul Devourer had shouted this very name during the fight against Jared.

"So you're Vermilion Demon Lord. Why are you in Jared's consciousness field?" Stebarin asked.

"That is none of your concern!" Vermilion Demon Lord snorted coldly. "Since you dare harm my host, I'll let you taste my wrath!"

With that, Vermilion Demon Lord's form flashed, and he instantly appeared before Stebarin, swinging his fist toward him.

Stebarin's expression changed dramatically, and he hastily deployed defensive spells.

However, his defense was like paper before Vermilion Demon Lord's attack. It was shattered instantly.

Bang!

Struck by Vermilion Demon Lord's punch, Stebarin flew backward, crashing heavily to the ground.

He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his face turned even paler.

Stebarin hadn't expected Vermilion Demon Lord's strength to be so formidable—he couldn't even parry a single attack from him.

Vermilion Demon Lord strolled toward Stebarin. Looking down at him from above, he said, "How did you dare to flaunt before me when this is all you've got?"

Stebarin struggled to stand, but Vermilion Demon Lord's punch was too heavy—he simply couldn't move. "Don't... Don't get cocky. I'm an elder of Malevolent Path Hall. We specialize in collecting souls. You're also in soul form now, so you'll be in big trouble if you dare touch me!"

Vermilion Demon Lord burst into laughter. "Malevolent Path Hall? To me, they're nothing but a bunch of clowns!"

"No! No!" Stebarin let out a desperate scream but couldn't resist the Golden Tome's pull.

Having spent a lifetime absorbing others' souls, he never imagined that he would become a lamb for slaughter in someone else's consciousness field.

Finally, Stebarin's soul was completely absorbed by the Golden Tome. His body transformed into countless crimson light particles, dissipating within Jared's consciousness field.

As the golden light gradually faded, Vermilion Demon Lord's figure reappeared. Looking at the vanished Stebarin, Vermilion Demon Lord sneered. "What a fool. He was seeking death for daring to absorb Jared's soul..."

Even in Jared's consciousness field, Vermilion Demon Lord had to behave himself. After all, the Golden Tome in Jared's consciousness field was far too formidable—especially against souls.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, the crimson array began to collapse.

The crimson chains binding Jared and Flaxseed lost their power, breaking apart one after another and transforming into countless crimson light particles that dissipated in the air.
