The King Of Warriors (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5321

Jared looked down at the trembling Kael. Not a flicker of pity touched his eyes.

When Kael drugged Lyra, did he weigh the notion of mercy?

“You have committed too many sins. You cannot live.”

Dragonslayer Sword fell once more, ending Kael in a single, final stroke.

With the execution of Lester and his son, the once-glorious Sacred Sword Manor collapsed overnight.

Smoke still curled over the ruined compound of Sword Sect. Shattered pillars and scorched banners lay everywhere, yet through the wreckage surged the fragile exhilaration of people who knew they had survived.

Infinides stepped forward, giving Jared a bottle. “This is the Soul Resurrection Pill from Roaring Storm Church. It will knit the broken meridians inside you.”

Jared accepted the bottle with both hands. He bowed deeply. “Thank you, Mr. Infinides.”

Had Leonidas and Infinides not arrived in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable.

Leonidas laughed softly. “Between us, thanks are unnecessary. Yet you have revealed both your Draconian blood and the fire unicorn within you. Peace will not come easily now.”

“I understand.” Jared nodded. He had prepared himself for this long ago.

“The two of us still have pressing matters elsewhere. We bid you farewell for now.”

Before leaving, Infinides glanced at Lyra, a playful glint in his eyes. “Miss Snowdon, Jared is worth your trust. Though I fear you will soon have to share him with more than one woman.”

Crimson bloomed across Lyra’s cheeks. She lowered her gaze and said nothing.

Infinides and Leonidas exchanged a knowing smile, then rose with their disciples in twin streams of golden light that arced into the sky and vanished.

Then Kishor strode over, clapping Jared on the shoulder. “Heal well. If you need anything, you know where to find me.” With that, he led the Whispers Tower members away.

Warmth flooded Jared’s chest as he watched their silhouettes recede.

He turned to Corin. “Master Morden, please tend their wounds and reinforce the defenses.”

Corin nodded, pride and relief softening the lines around his eyes.

Ararat approached, voice low and grave. “Sacred Sword Manor has fallen, but the Celestial Palace and the Malevolent Path Hall will not give up easily. Watch your back.”
