Lindsay’s eyes widened, tears glittering anew. “Does that mean he wants to join forces with Malevolent Path Hall? He did say he’s heading for level twelve!”

“Yes. That’s most likely,” Jared answered, blood still wet on his tongue.

A ragged stab of pain speared his chest, causing him to knit his brows tight. “An old demon like Soul Devourer is good at assessing the situation and acting at the right moment. He’s cunning as a fox. He knows he can’t remain on level eleven, not when he has both Earthfire Pavilion and me hunting him down. Therefore, his best choice is to join Malevolent Path Hall. It’s a fellow demonic faction, strong and actively recruiting powerful cultivators.

It’d be the safest refuge for him.”

Vermilion Demon Lord’s crimson aura dimmed at the edges. “As if dealing with the inscrutable leader of the Malevolent Path Hall wasn’t bad enough, we now also have Soul Devourer in the High Immortal Realm… If they fully join forces, the consequences would be unimaginable!”
