The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5619

Boom!

Before Rowena could finish speaking, a terrifying aura slammed into her, pressing down on her with overwhelming force. She collapsed to her knees, dazed and disoriented.

Neville fixed her with an icy stare. "Nethergate Sect recognizes only the Golden Pass. Nothing else."

He continued, "For one hundred thousand years, we've issued just three. Even if our sect falls, our word must never be broken. That promise is the foundation of our existence, and today, you left Jared behind and ran off on your own? Do you even understand what you've done?"

Rowena's body trembled, and her face drained of color, leaving her looking pale and helpless.

"Mr. Contreras, Jared hasn't just angered Malice Hall. He's also crossed paths with the Soul Devourer and the Fire Demon Lord," Rowena hurriedly said, dropping the names like a shield to protect herself.

Neville's eyes flickered at the mention of those notorious figures, his brow furrowing in sharp concentration.

Rowena allowed herself a shaky breath of relief.

"Those two vanished ten thousand years ago. How could he possibly have crossed them?" Neville asked, disbelief sharpening his tone.

"I swear it was his own words, Mr. Contreras," Rowena replied, her voice low and pleading.

Neville hesitated for a moment longer, then his frost-hard expression returned. "Even so, that is no excuse for desertion. All of you will face death."

Thud.

The disciples behind Rowena immediately dropped to their knees, foreheads pressed to the stone floor.

"Mr. Contreras, it was Rowena who ordered us to leave Jared behind," one of them cried. "She said bringing him here would put the Nethergate Sect in danger."
