Chapter 1184
Author: Blanco Burn
"I just want to buy some decorations for the company and some gifts," Serena explained.

The company's business had been thriving lately, and she was planning to expand again, which would require decorations. Additionally, some of their business partners' bosses were fond of antiques. She also wanted to buy some as gifts.

"I wonder how much you know about antiques?" Serena asked.

"Not much, just a little," Xayne modestly replied.

"Just knowing a little is enough. Anyway, I don't understand anything about it," Serena said. She just wanted Xayne to accompany her, as there were quite a few decorations to buy, and she couldn't manage alone.

After discussing it, Serena took Xayne to the antique market that evening after dinner.

The antique market was bustling during the day, but it was much quieter at night due to the dim lighting, making it difficult to discern the quality of items.

At that moment, Serena spotted a beautiful blue and white porcelain vase and said to Xayne, "Xayne, lo

    "If you don't understand, you shouldn't spurt nonsense. If you're not buying, then get out! Are you sent by other stores to sabotage us?" The shopkeeper impatiently took out a stick, ready to drive them away."I'm not talking nonsense. First of all, the material of this blue and white porcelain is very rough, and the body of the vase doesn't feel smooth like jade," Xayne analyzed the flaws of the blue and white porcelain while gently tilting it downward."And the reason why this blue and white porcelain looks so beautiful is all due to the reflection of the light. Once you turn off the light and expose it to sunlight, the roughness of this blue and white porcelain will be revealed," Xayne continued."The ability to produce such perfect blue and white porcelain usually comes from large factories. This kind of blue and white porcelain made in large factories would have the place of origin marked underneath," Xayne flipped the blue and white porcelain upside down, revealing a line of f

    Xayne smiled and said, "Then, wait for me, I'll drive over." Xayne drove to the shop and moved all the fake goods out of the store. Watching Xayne carry away one piece of blue and white porcelain and various jade items after another, the shopkeeper felt like he was being raided and couldn't help but feel miserable. If Xayne really called the police, not only would he be unable to do business here in the future, but he would also face criminal punishment. He truly regretted it, wishing he hadn't been greedy for a little profit!Xayne drove back with Serena, and they could be said to be returning with a full load. After all, these porcelain items were meant to be decorative pieces in the company, not for collection, so there was no need to worry about authenticity.However, Serena felt a bit guilty and asked, "Are we going too far? I saw that the shopkeeper seemed to be crying just now."Xayne replied, "Too far? Not at all. Honey, you have to think carefully. Just now, he priced

    "You're from the Riller family?" Serena panicked. The Riller family was a top-notch family that was extremely powerful even before the Golding family in Venzor fell. Moreover, they were now a top-notch family in the neighboring area of Xanwood. No wonder the shopkeeper here was so polite to him. Serena hesitated whether to hand over the jade pendant in her hand, but Xayne stood in front of her."I'm sorry, we're not selling this jade pendant," Xayne said. "A jade chooses its owner. We've already paid for it, and she has already put it on. If you buy back this jade pendant, won't it bring us bad luck?"Serena had just wanted to buy this jade pendant for good luck. If this jade pendant were sold to Mac, the good luck would turn into bad luck."Oh, right, sorry, we're not selling it." Serena shook her head and withdrew her hand.The shopkeeper spoke up, "Mr. Mac, we have other jade pendants here. Do you want to take a look?""What for? Do you think I came to your shop just to loo

    With a wave of Mac's hand, his bodyguards swiftly surrounded Xayne. Usually, other customers would freely give away the things he had his eyes on to appease him.Today, these two country bumpkins dared not to respect him, which made him very unhappy. Just as Xayne was about to take action against them, Serena gently pulled on his sleeve."Don't get into a fight with them," Serena said. She wasn't afraid that Xayne couldn't beat them, but she was afraid that they would get into trouble if Xayne knocked them down.Xayne smiled and patted Serena's hand, saying, "Honey, don't worry. I have my own way of dealing with people like this."The bodyguards surrounded Xayne and Serena, their eyes glaring at them with strong pressure.Mac, taking advantage of having his bodyguards around him, stepped forward and pressured them, "I'll ask you one more time, are you selling this jade pendant or not?""We're not selling it. I don't care who you are. Even if you were the devil, I still wouldn't

    Serena felt Mac's greedy gaze and turned her face away with disdain. Seeing Serena's attitude, Mac immediately became furious."As the son of the wealthy Riller family in Xanwood, I demand respect. Do you know the reputation of my family? Do you know the name Mac Riller? Even if you are a friend from the underworld, you should call me Mr. Mac. Let me tell you, being able to spend a night with me is the good fortune you've accumulated over eight lifetimes.""Just a little Riller family and you dare to act so arrogantly?" Xayne stepped forward, his entire demeanor suddenly changing.He stared at Mac as if he wanted to devour him, crush him into pieces, and swallow him whole. Xayne had spent five years on the battlefield as the Supreme Commander of Northern Plains, transversing through mountains of blades and seas of fire, dodging bullets and arrows.Even if Mac were a general, when faced with Xayne's aura of killing and decisiveness, they would lose sleep for three days and three nig

    In order to leave a towering and imposing image in the customers' minds at the jade shop, Mac improvised and said, "Hahaha, this Xayne is indeed something. His fleeing skills are impeccable!"Mac even gave a thumbs-up in a very fitting manner, with a smile on his face.However, the customers in front of Mac were truly astonished. They all stared with wide eyes and open mouths at Mac as if something incredibly shocking had just occurred.Mac felt a bit bewildered by the stares from these customers. He didn't know what was going on. His acting must be incredibly convincing. The owner of the jade shop immediately noticed that Mac was still clueless and kindly gestured towards him, indicating that he should look behind him."Ah!" Mac looked back in confusion at his bodyguards standing behind him and was directly startled.The once lively bodyguards were now lying silently on the ground, not moving at all.Standing beside the bodyguards was none other than Xayne, whom Mac had accuse

    The punch tore through the air, making a booming sound. If it landed, the person would probably lose half their lifespan."Ah! I apologize, I apologize, I was wrong!"Mac was scared to receive Xayne's punch.He did not dare to gamble with his life. The punch was too terrifying.Xayne's fist stopped abruptly in front of Mac's forehead, only a few millimeters away from hitting the top of Mac's head.This punch was not difficult to stop, not due to his outburst but because of Xayne's control of himself. From this, it can be seen that Xayne was not using his full strength.For a civilian, it seemed like he was using less than a tenth of his strength.After seeing the imposing Mac knelt while begging for mercy from Xayne. Everyone in the jade shop felt a sense of satisfaction."That's it, beat him up viciously.""Yes! Beat him to death.""Such people should not be shown mercy.""That's right, beat him until even his parents don't recognize him."Not only did the customers in t

    Xayne chuckled coldly.Paul was indeed cunning. He wanted to get away with just a simple verbal commendation. It was not that Xayne was greedy for a simple reward, but in Drakonia, those who acted bravely and righteously were publicly praised.Paul probably wanted to take all the credit for himself. After all, the cake was only so big, and one person should have it all rather than share it.The policemen lifted Mac from the ground and exclaimed in shock, "Isn't this Mac from the Riller family?"Even Paul, from a distance, felt a chill run down his spine. This was the heir of the Riller family in Xanwood. If something happened in the area under his jurisdiction, he might lose his position as patrol captain."Quick, quick, untie Mr. Mac!" Paul shouted.The policemen quickly helped Mac up and served him attentively.Seeing this, the boss of the jade shop hurried forward and asked, "Mr. Paul, this guy smashed my shop. Aren't you supposed to help me?"The boss of the jade shop did n

    "There are more than thirty of them?" Xayne's heart pounded. That meant there were people even stronger than Horin."They're all waiting... waiting for the Ruins of the Dragon Clan to surface. In the end, anyone who craves that treasure will lose their life to greed. That is the cycle of the world." Horin gazed into the distance with a calm expression.He had not been avoiding conflict—he had been biding his time, accumulating power. Xayne could sense it in his eyes. There was ambition there. Every move Horin made served his ultimate goal. Even forging a connection with Xayne had been a calculated step to expand his influence.Xayne was a lone warrior, with no faction backing him. From Horin's perspective, all he had to do was lend Xayne a hand, earn his gratitude, and that was enough. That was why Horin had treated him so favorably. He had even shared some of his own insights, sharpening Xayne’s mindset, strengthening his abilities. Someday, Xayne might become one of his strongest ass

    Xander sized up Fent and spoke coldly. "Fent, will you not turn back from your misguided path?"Fent struggled to his feet, his glare filled with hostility. He spat on the ground and growled, "I will never stand on the same side as Xayne! And you, mark my words—when I return from this mountain, it will be the day of your demise. Just you wait!" With that, he dragged his battered body away, limping down the mountain path without looking back. Stringer and Yeti flanked him, offering their support as he leaned on them for balance.At the Heavenly Water Sanctuary, to the east, a towering waterfall crashed down in torrents. To the west, a quiet river snaked through the valley, its current slow and steady. At the river’s heart lay a tranquil pool, its surface untouched by the world beyond.A hundred feet above the gorge, nestled into the cliffside, a cave overlooked the breathtaking scenery. The air was crisp and pure, carrying the scent of fresh earth and mountain blossoms."Senior, this p

    Fent did not dare utter a single word of protest. Clutching his chest, he trembled as he knelt before Horin."How is your teacher?" Horin turned slightly, directing his question to Yeti."It has been a hundred years since I last saw him. I do not know," Yeti replied with the utmost reverence.Horin suddenly shifted his gaze to Xayne. "The secret of the Nine Luminaries of the Heavenly Stars… lies like the self—no thoughts, no desires, no life, no death! It does not rely on the power of the stars! The world follows the Path of Veyara, but what is the Path of Veyara? The radiance of the stars is not true light." His words were spoken softly as if he were merely muttering to himself—or perhaps offering Xayne a lesson.Xayne's heart stirred. Horin’s insight was astounding. The eight words—"No thoughts, no desires, no life, no death."—lingered in his mind. They placed Horin far beyond the comprehension of ordinary cultivators."Magnetic fields… are simply the pull of the stars. They have al

    "Do you yield?" Horin gazed at Xayne with a calm, indifferent expression.Fent and the others broke out in a cold sweat. Just a single finger—that was all it took. It proved that Horin’s power was unfathomable. Standing before him, they felt no different from mere ants. But what was even stranger was the complete absence of dominance around Horin. No oppressive force. No overwhelming presence. It was as if he, the heavens, the earth—everything—were one. His arrival, and that single finger strike, felt less like an act of man and more like the will of the universe itself.Xayne was beyond shocked. But he was not the only one. Andrea, watching the live broadcast, sat in stunned silence. He could hardly believe what he had just witnessed. Because the one who had been defeated—was Xayne.'Then what realm had this man reached? Quad-Radiant Commander? Rising Numen Commander? Or had he already ascended to Numen Commander?' The mere thought sent shivers down Andrea’s spine.The Light Order’s

    Xayne’s comprehension must have been immense—not only to counter Fent’s attack but to transform it into his own. Fent would have easily blocked this spear had he not taken that devastating palm strike.But now, his entire right side was caved in. One arm hung limply, the other completely empty. No sword, no weapon, not even a sliver of metal remained to block Xayne’s spear. It was no different from trying to catch a nuclear warhead.Yet, Fent had no choice. His retreat had already been cut off. If he turned his back, he would only meet a deadly stab from behind—a certain death sentence."If I die—then I'll drag you down with me!" Fent’s face twisted in fury. With only one thought in his mind, he lunged toward Xayne. He would deliver a lethal palm strike, even if it meant taking Xayne’s spear head-on."Master, he's going for mutual destruction!" From a distance, Esmond saw Fent shooting forward and cried out in alarm.But Xayne had already seen through him. And now, there was no turning

    Xayne appeared to be at his limit, yet in truth, he was far from it. From the Heavenly Tome, he had already mastered the Seven-Star Footwork to perfection. With the slightest lift of his feet, his positioning shifted unpredictably.Three consecutive strikes from Fent were missed completely. The sheer force of the sword energy alone shattered the nearby trees into splinters.Xayne lunged forward, spear in hand, as a formation flared to life around him. In an instant, multiple spear projections erupted outward, each infused with lethal intent, hurtling toward Fent from every angle."Not good! Fall back quickly!" Elder Stringer suddenly shouted toward Fent.But at that very moment, just as the spears were about to pierce into Fent's body, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Fent's lips. It went exactly as he had planned. From the very start, his attacks had merely been probing. Through those exchanges, Fent had already figured out that Xayne's strength was high, but his battle exp

    Just as Fent unleashed his full-force attack, far away in the Skyveria Cave Heaven within Nindragon Mountain, a young man with long hair slowly rose from a white lotus platform. He turned to the elderly figure beside him and murmured, "Fent of White Blossom Mountain?" The elderly figure was none other than Xander. Xander frowned slightly and said, "Your Excellency, in truth, the moment Killian's descendant was attacked days ago, forces from outer battlegrounds had already begun their plans. This time, they've dispatched eleven Radiant Commanders just to erase the last glimmer of hope for Drakonia. If Xayne dies, the three Dragon Hearts will be masterless, and the Ruins of Dragon Clan will never be opened again!" Xander spoke with no emotion as if merely stating an unrelated fact. Upon hearing this, Horin Tamie, the Creator of Light Order, turned his gaze toward Xayne's distant battlefield before suddenly tilting his head back and laughing. "Xander, are you truly not worried about

    Xayne let out a sudden roar, and his Scarlet Dragon Lance erupted with a dazzling radiance. The void within hundreds of meters shuddered violently, while the earth beneath them cracked open with deep fissures. At this moment, the sky seemed on the verge of being torn apart by the overwhelming force. Xayne's aura surged to its absolute peak. "Elder Stringer! Hurry! You and I must join forces to kill him! He's burning his life force, he can't last much longer! Just hold out a little longer, and he will surely perish!" Fent roared at Elder Stringer. But there was no need for Fent to say anything; Elder Stringer and Yeti could already feel it. Xayne was igniting his very soul. Elder Stringer unleashed his full strength at that instant, his sword slashing toward Xayne with killing intent. They needed just five more minutes. Xayne's aura would surely weaken, and when that moment came, it would be the end of him. "Hold out? Do you think you have a chance to kill me?" Xayne let out a c

    After the relentless battles, Xayne was clearly at his limit. Fent refused to believe that Xayne could still put up a fight. He could distinctly sense Xayne's aura weakening. As the saying goes, "Strike while the iron is hot." With a sudden tremor of his body, Fent flicked his wrist, and the sword he had tossed aside earlier shot back into his grasp. With a single thrust, his blade erupted with a dazzling silver radiance, peerless sword energy piercing straight into the sky. Fent wasn't regarded as the peak combatant among the eleven just because of his raw power. It was because he wielded a lost secret formation from White Blossom Mountain, the "Nine Luminaries of the Heavenly Stars."Strictly speaking, this formation surpassed conventional formations. It was a forbidden secret formation. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a peerless heavenly skill. The origins of the Nine Luminaries of the Heavenly Stars could be traced back to the first ancestor of White Blossom Mounta
