Upon hearing this, Xayne coldly retorted, "Is that so? Let me tell you the same thing. Believe it or not, with one phone call from me, you'll lose your managerial position." Upon hearing this, Oliver smirked and mocked, "Who do you think you are? The chairman of the World Trade Center?! Let me tell you, even if Chuck himself came, he would have to consider my contributions to the World Trade Center. To dismiss me, the World Trade Center would lose billions. " The skinny and chubby guards praised Oliver. "That's right, Mr. Oliver's role in the World Trade Center is unparalleled. He's about to be promoted to general manager. His level is something you'll never reach. Do you think you can overthrow Mr. Oliver? That's a fool's dream!" Hearing these words, Xayne didn't bother to explain and directly took out his phone, dialing Chuck's number. "Is this Chuck?" "Yes, Mr. Xayne, it's me. I've already sent the group of material suppliers to the Swift family. Do you have any other orders
Oliver, with a tearful voice, bowed to Xayne. He had lost the position he had worked for half his life due to his arrogance, completely ruining his chance of becoming the general manager and even losing his job at the World Trade Center. Oliver was in a complete panic. He regretted offending Xayne and regretted coming to the surveillance room today. Without even sparing him a glance, Xayne left. These bunch of clowns weren't even worth his consideration. After leaving the World Trade Center, Xayne got into his car. Then, his phone rang. Xayne picked up the phone and asked, "Have you located the kidnappers' whereabouts?" A sinister voice came from the other end of the phone. "Commander Xayne, it's been a long time." Hearing the processed voice, Xayne cautiously asked, "Who is this?" "Hehe, Blood Butcher asked me to greet you on his behalf." Upon hearing the name "Blood Butcher," Xayne became extremely angry and said in a deep voice, "Did you kidnap Serena? Remember, i
Xayne relaxed himself. Then, he began to listen carefully to the surrounding movements. Tick, tick, tick! There was a sound of a ticking hand moving in Coco's school bag. Xayne took Coco's school bag, opened it, and looked inside. A time bomb was quietly placed in Coco's school bag. The bomb wasn't large, but if Coco continued to carry the school bag, she definitely wouldn't survive the explosion. The hand rapidly rotated, indicating there were only thirty seconds left. Xayne smiled at Coco. "Coco, Daddy will perform a magic trick for you, okay?" Coco clapped her hands. "Okay, I love magic tricks!" Xayne said directly, "Watch closely. I'll make fireworks come out of your school bag." Xayne threw the school bag into the sky. In an instant, a pink school bag exploded in the air like a pink firework. Coco laughed and clapped her hands in place, looking childish. At this moment, a call came in. Xayne looked at the caller ID and saw that it was from Harold. Xayne hur
However, Vince was not afraid. He took a button from his pocket and extended his hand toward Xayne. He said, "This button is linked to the timed bomb on the pillar. As long as I press it, after a five-minute countdown, boom! The explosion will not only turn Serena into pieces, but this dilapidated building will also become ruins in the explosion." Xayne looked toward Serena, his eyes filled with concern and worry. Serena was tied to a large pillar with iron chains. Just above Serena's head was a huge timed bomb. This bomb was several times larger than the one in Coco's school bag, and naturally, its power was several times greater. Vince laughed coldly. "Don't even think about disarming the bomb. As long as you touch it lightly, the bomb will explode, and the entire building will become a ruin." Xayne stopped in his tracks, his voice cold, "If you dare to press it, I will take your head!" Vince grinned evilly and pressed the button forcefully. The pointer on the timed bom
Serena saw Vince rushing out and shouted, "Xayne, be careful! Behind you!" Vince's punch gathered all his strength. Under the force of his fist, the air was slowly tearing apart. Xayne roared, "You're asking for it!" Then, he turned around and directly threw a punch, hitting Vince's fist. Boom! Their fists collided, and Vince flew backward. Vince spit out a mouthful of blood, and his bright eyes instantly dimmed. He had lost. Vince fought his whole life but was still no match for the Supreme Commander of the Northern Plains. From an unknown soldier, Vince climbed up to become Blood Butcher's first deputy, becoming Blood Butcher's right-hand man. In Folksworth, he was like a king above all. However, the young Supreme Commander of the Northern Plains was the number one Celestial Dracarium Commander in Drakonia. His status and achievements were outstanding, even surpassing his own commander. Apart from envy, Vince only felt jealousy and hatred. Vince also yearned to
After a deafening roar, a mushroom cloud rose directly into the sky, blooming with color.A half-finished building in the Rainflower District instantly turned into a black ruin with the huge explosion.Xayne jumped down from the third floor of the unfinished building, holding Serena in his arms. The sound of the explosion rang directly in Serena's ears. She was held tightly by Xayne and was not harmed in the slightest.As the two descended, Xayne used his back to shield her from the bomb's impact.As they approached the ground, Xayne made a 180-degree turn while holding Serena, becoming a human cushion to absorb the impact of the fall for her.Xayne grunted, holding Serena tightly, asking, "Serena, are you okay?"Looking terrified, Serena was lying in Xayne's arms and said, "I'm fine. Honey, are you okay?"Xayne shook his head, indicating he was fine.At this moment, Harold led a group of guards to surround the half-finished building.Harold trotted over, bowing to Xayne. "Mr
Serena specially prepared two rooms for Tony's family, one for Tony and Violet, and the other for Royce.Royce had quite the temper. He demanded to have two maids assigned to him. Otherwise, he claimed he wouldn't be able to sleep at all.Xayne used a physical hypnosis technique on Royce by hitting Royce directly between the eyebrows.Before Royce could react, he snorted coldly and passed out on the bed.Then, it was a night of silence.Meanwhile, at Xanwood International Airport, a crowd of people dressed in the Xanwood Bureau of Law Enforcement uniforms surrounded the area. Among them was Lyzon, who had boarded a plane to Xanwood under Xayne's arrangement.Harold personally arranged Lyzon's private plane from Venzor to Xanwood yesterday afternoon.To ensure Lyzon wouldn't escape halfway, Harold directly notified Dominic, the chief prosecutor of the Xanwood Bureau of Law Enforcement, to pick him up at a specific time.On the plane was only one passenger, Lyzon.There was also
The Xanwood Bureau of Law Enforcement guards took down Lyzon. He dropped to his knees, tears streaming down his face as he said, "Sir, please believe me. It's not my fault. It's all because of Xayne. He directly blew Mr. Jason's head off with a single shot. I wanted to fight with Xayne, but I couldn't do anything. I was outnumbered. Without Mr. Jason, without our backbone, the Riller family men were scattered, allowing Harold to capture them all."Dominic's mind echoed with Xayne's name and frowned. "Are you saying Xayne killed Mr. Jason?"Lyzon nodded. "Yes. It's him. Everything was fine. Mr. Jason had already rescued Mr. Mac, but when Xayne arrived, everything changed. Even Mr. Jason couldn't match Xayne. Chief Harold follows Xayne's orders, completely disregarding the Riller family."Dominic clenched his hand tightly, his fingernails digging into his flesh, slowly oozing blood.'Xayne, your relationship with the Riller family is irreconcilable.'Then, Dominic stared at Lyzon a
Dean's wild provocations quickly drew a crowd of onlookers.At that moment, a striking young woman stepped forward, removing her sunglasses as she made her way through the throng.The woman was dressed in an elegant black gown, the hemline revealing a pair of flawless, slender legs that caught everyone's attention. Her expression, however, was haughty, as though she looked down on everyone around her.She was Deanana Lovorka, the heiress of the Lovorka family conglomerate. While not exactly a household name, she was considered a minor socialite in the upper circles of Drakonix."Manager Dean, it's been a while!" Deanana greeted casually.As someone who frequently traveled abroad for business, Deanana was a familiar face at the airport and she had crossed paths with Dean on several occasions.But she was not here for a casual chat with Dean. It was far from it.She had come specifically to see Xayne.This was, after all, the legendary King of the North. Just six months ago, he w
"Do you have any idea whose luggage this is?" Aava asked coldly with a sharp and commanding tone.She was on the verge of revealing her special credentials—something she rarely used unless absolutely necessary. Xayne had been her hero, someone she deeply admired. The ridicule from Miodrag moments earlier had already pushed her to the edge, and now even a low-level airport staffer dared to humiliate him."Of course, I knew. Xayne, the King of the North six months ago; now he's just a regular civilian," the staffer replied with icy indifference. The staffer smirked. "Miss, do you think Xayne is still the mighty King of the North? There's no war, the capital isn't under siege, and he's utterly useless now. Take my advice—someone young and beautiful like you should stay far away from trash like Xayne. Get closer to someone like Young Master Dongfang instead. It'll do wonders for your future!"Dean swaggered over, cigarette dangling from his mouth, hands clasped behind his back. His ex
Upon hearing those words, both Xayne and Aava paused in surprise, then frowned in unison.The VIP lounge was clearly still operating as usual. Inside, over twenty people were relaxing—some reading newspapers and sipping coffee. There was no sign of any "closure" or "disinfection."It was obvious that this so-called announcement was deliberately targeting Xayne and Aava."Manager Li, isn't this going a bit too far? That's Xayne—formerly the King of the North. He has special privileges to use the VIP lounge. If this gets reported to higher-ups, we could all be in trouble…," whispered one of the airport staff, cautiously approaching Dean."Higher-ups? Haven't you heard? Young Master Lyuben already gave the order—anyone who sides with Xayne will see their entire family wiped out." Dean sneered, exhaling a cloud of smoke as he lit a cigarette."And even if the higher-ups find out, what can they do?" Dean added mockingly. "I'll admit, six months ago, I wouldn't have dared cross Xayne. B
Miodrag's laughter quickly caught the attention of onlookers in the bustling terminal. But their gazes were fixed not on him but on Xayne.The "King of the North" was a name nearly everyone recognized, yet no one dared approach him. Lyuben's warning had spread far and wide: anyone who got close to Xayne would face annihilation."Miodrag! What gives you the right to mock Mr. Xayne? Just hours ago, he was fighting on the front lines for this country. And you? What have you done besides indulge yourself in luxury?" Aava snapped with a sharp and clear voice."Heh, I pay taxes, don't I? Doesn't spending money generate tax revenue? Without people like me keeping the economy alive, what would Xayne have eaten in the north? Dirt?" Miodrag smirked, his tone dripping with mockery. He sneered and continued, "If not for us rich kids throwing around millions in donations every day, Xayne wouldn't even have warm dirt to eat!""Damn it! The nerve of that guy!""What's so special about the East
"Is it true that Xayne captured the so-called 'Lord of Light' alive?" Lyuben remained calm as he was playing a grand piano in the lounge."Indeed! Word is, the Lord of Light's master, Master Emin, was present as well. However, Xander also made an appearance. My analysis suggests it was Xander who forced Master Emin to retreat, while Xayne crippled the Lord of Light." An older man lowered his head respectfully as he spoke, his voice tinged with urgency."Oh? Defeating the Lord of Light… he must have had a trick up his sleeve. Was it some kind of tactic or setup?" Lyuben asked without betraying a hint of emotion."It's said that Xayne specializes in traps and ambushes. Otherwise, Hiram and his crew wouldn't have met their end in that mansion. Master Dongfang, you mustn't underestimate him!""Hmm?!" Lyuben's eyes shot open suddenly, piercing beams of icy resolve radiating toward the older man.The man immediately lowered his head further, not daring to meet the gaze of the young lead
"Lowes, what are you panicking for?" Zoro's cold gaze locked onto Lowes.Even though Lowes was several generations younger than him, as the head of the Bullard family, he had the status to stand on equal footing with Zoro."I'm not panicking, I just don't want to see more white funeral banners hanging at the Bullard family estate. If Xayne comes back and chooses to settle the score, do you think any of us can handle it? You might not know this, but back when King Quidie rebelled, even Klink didn't dare lay a hand on him," Lowes replied, his voice strained but steady.He paused, taking a long, slow breath to calm himself. "Put it another way, if Xayne comes for us, even KB Kings Circle won't step in to save us. If that doesn't scare you, then I don't know what will!"The air in the room grew colder. Lowes glanced around at the faces of the other family heads, hoping to see reason in their eyes. But then came a sneer.Zoro let out a low, disdainful chuckle. "Even if Xayne didn't die
"Xayne!" Zoro clenched his fists so tightly. If anyone had a grudge against Xayne, the Eastin family's hatred was no less than that of the Bullard family. Not to mention, Flamey had been killed by Xayne not long ago. This blood feud had to be settled.The Big Four weren't some weak, defenseless prey that Xayne could toy with as he pleased. For decades, the Big Four had controlled the heart of the Drakonia's economy. Every senator, governor, and political figure had to show them respect. But since Iver's death, the Big Four had lost their glow. People who once bowed their heads were now looking down on them. The root of all this was because of Xayne.That's why, after Flamey's death, the Eastin family had no choice but to call upon their master, a man who had been living in seclusion for decades. Every bit of information regarding Xayne's trip to Egenda, his plans, his contacts, and even his flight schedule had been deliberately fed to Lord of Light.They made it clear that the momen
"In the end, his ambitions were never realized. When he attempted to merge all five Dragon's Hearts, he died. After his death, the Dragon's Hearts vanished without a trace. That's why the Light Order has always kept a close eye on Drakonia, especially on the methods Commander Zedd used to track down those Dragon's Hearts," Joe explained.Hearing this, Xayne was utterly stunned. He had never imagined that over a century ago, Commander Zedd had possessed five Dragon's Hearts. That would have been a time when Drakon Destiny was on the rise. However, because of the failed fusion, Commander Zedd lost not only his life but also Drakon Destiny's, which declined, leading to the humiliations and defeats that followed over the next century."So you're saying the Dragon's Hearts are tied to the fate of a nation?" Xayne asked, his shock evident."Absolutely. Based on our research, there's no doubt about it. The fate of Drakonia is linked to the Dragon's Hearts. Every time someone successfully f
In the VIP lounge of the airport, Xayne and Aava were waiting for their flight. Not long after, a tall, broad-shouldered young man strode in. He scanned the room briefly before his eyes locked onto Xayne and Aava. Without hesitation, he walked straight toward them. "Mr. Xayne, I'm sorry for the wait. I was sent here by Yves."The young man sized up Xayne, his eyes flashing with surprise when he saw that Xayne was completely unharmed. Word had spread about Xayne's clash with Lord of Light, a confrontation that even drew out a Radiant Commander figure, Emin. Yet here Xayne was, perfectly fine. It was hard not to be impressed.As Yves's right-hand man, Joe Zhird knew better than to underestimate someone like Xayne. His respect was evident in his tone and demeanor. With his status as the top lieutenant of Black Ice Platform, even the heads of prominent families would approach him with courtesy. But right now, it was Joe who was showing deference to Xayne, and this caught Aava by surprise
