Chapter 726: Chase

A Vermilion Shadow started taking shape behind Vermilion as the air in his surroundings started getting hot.

The man that had helped him stepped back to protect himself from the heat.

"I'll catch them myself," Vermilion muttered as he started forming flaming wings, but before the wings could form successfully, he coughed out a mouthful of blood as he dropped down to his knees.

"Master Vermilion," The Phoenix Organization member ran up to him and helped him up again. 

"Are you injured?" he asked.

"That seems to be the case. I can't use my War Spirit for now," Vermilion muttered as he gazed into the distant horizon.

He knew that he couldn't chase after them.

"Ah, right. Was their leader with them when they fled, or had he died in my attacks?" Vermilion inquired.

"Ah, he came out fine after the attack. He's the one that took the others away," the man replied.
