A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5886

Elliot kept his head lowered. Darkness flashed in his eyes.

He secretly used a message talisman to inform the Malevolent Path Hall.

He told them that Jared had the Golden Dragon Bloodline and might be injured from fighting the Flame Dragon. He also gave them Jared's current location.

When he looked up again, his smile was warm. "Mr. Chance, we owe you. Once we reach the Earthfire Pavilion, my father will see your heroism properly rewarded!"

Lindsay added, voice bright as crackling tinder, "Yes! I'll demand Father shower you with gifts!"

Jared answered with a calm nod. "I appreciate it, but first we move. The Flame Dragon may rethink its mercy at any moment."

"Agreed," Ferdinand said, forcing himself upright. "Let's head back to Crimson Flame City!"

They moved once more, but the atmosphere was different.

At first, Jared was looked down upon.

Now, he had become the Earthfire Pavilion's savior.

Lindsay hovered at his side, never more than an arm's length away. She tended to Jared's needs, and her eyes showed affection.

Elliot was calm, but his murderous intent was intense.

Vermilion Demon Lord was wary of him and reminded Jared to be watchful.

Jared, meanwhile, breathed slowly to recover his body while planning his next step.

He had revealed his Golden Dragon Bloodline. Although only Elliot and Lindsay saw it, he did not trust Elliot.

The Malevolent Path Hall was after him. He should improve his strength as soon as possible.

Moreover, he needed the Earthfire Pavilion's help to locate the Jadeheart Marrow.

The convoy headed for the Flame Gorge exit.

Far behind, deep within the lava lake, the Flame Dragon opened its eyes. Confusion filled its gaze, then changed to reverence.

It rumbled low, the sound trembling stone. Beneath the growl hid a note of—submission.

Elsewhere, outside the Flame Gorge, several dark-robed figures appeared.

The man leading the group was Bennett from the Malevolent Path Hall.

His red eyes traced the convoy's dust with a crooked smile. "Golden Dragon Bloodline... What an unexpected treasure. Bonefiend, is the array ready?"

Bonefiend, wrapped head to toe in jagged white spikes, cackled. "No worries. I have set the Almighty Soul Devourer. When they reach the outside of Flame Gorge, they can't escape."

"Excellent," Bennett replied.

He licked his lips. "Spread the word. This time, I shall extract the Golden Dragon Bloodline myself. Such nourishment is too rare to waste."

Danger was lurking in Jared's group.
