When Jared and Flaxseed felt the restraints vanish, they hurriedly struggled to their feet.
Looking at the dissipating array around them and Stebarin's withered corpse on the ground, they were both astonished.
"What... What happened just now?" Flaxseed asked in confusion.
Jared was equally bewildered. He only remembered his soul being pulled by Stebarin, then losing consciousness.
As for what happened afterward, he had no idea.
Just then, Vermilion Demon Lord's voice came from Jared's consciousness field. "Boy, you were lucky this time. If I hadn't acted, you would have long had your soul absorbed by that fellow!"
Jared's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Mr. Vermilion, was it you who saved me? But didn't you say you were about to die because your divine soul was weak?"
It didn't make sense to Jared. Vermilion Demon Lord's divine soul had been extremely weak after the battle against the Soul Devourer, so he couldn't have been able to help out.
"Hey, even if I'm weak, eliminating that guy's spiritual sense in your consciousness field was still child's play. I'm a demon lord from level nine. That guy is nothing to me," Vermilion Demon Lord boasted.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Vermilion..." Jared said.
Jared didn't know exactly what had happened in his consciousness field, so he could only thank Vermilion Demon Lord first.
"No need for formalities!" Vermilion Demon Lord said proudly. "However, that fellow's soul was ultimately absorbed by that golden ancient book, which saved me great trouble."
Only then did Jared understand that Stebarin's soul had been absorbed by the Golden Tome in his consciousness field.
Since even Vermilion Demon Lord's divine soul feared the Golden Tome, Stebarin's soul was nothing in comparison.
Seeing Jared's expression, Vermilion Demon Lord quickly explained, "However, I did beat that guy up first. Don't think I'm just bragging!"
"Of course not. You're the most formidable figure in level nine—how could you be bragging?" Jared smiled faintly.
