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

    The two of them continued driving on the highway for a few hours before reaching Tility.The Loompa family was once filled with prestigious East Yoskea Military Theater generals. Their military influence and prestige in South Rivera Province was considerable.The old general of the Loompa family had retired for many years, living in seclusion in Tility and enjoying his old age.Now, the military power of the Loompa family was in the hands of Sherman. As the successor to the Great General Apollo Loompa's mantle, Sherman was now soaring in the military, even becoming a newly promoted Major General.Soon, the two arrived at the gate of the Loompa residence.Dominic adjusted his attire and stood quietly at the gate of the Loompa residence.Gresham knocked on the vermilion gate of the Loompa residence and loudly said, "General Apollo, we are representatives from the Riller family in Xanwood. Please allow us to meet you, General."The steward opened the gate of the Loompa residence fo

    Apollo took the bag from the box and glanced at it. Instantly, he flew into a rage and cursed loudly, "Dominic, what is the meaning of this?"Dominic hurriedly knelt, cautiously saying, "General Apollo, please don't misunderstand. I didn't do this. It's Xayne."General Apollo angrily asked, "Xayne again?""Yes, it's Xayne," Dominic said fiercely. "Just yesterday, my younger brother Jason went to Venzor with the Loompa family jade pendant. As a result, Harold showed no gratitude, not even willing to show some respect for you. What's more, Xayne smashed the jade pendant and sent it back. This is a complete disrespect toward you and the Loompa family."Apollo bristled with anger as he said, "Is this true?"Dominic nodded. "Xayne not only disrespects the Riller family but also disrespects you. Everyone in Drakonia knows the significance of the Loompa family jade pendant."Apollo's face turned livid, and he said coldly, "So be it. Let's take him down."A smirk appeared on Dominic's l

    Apollo sighed helplessly, shaking his head as he cautioned, "I'll say only one thing.The Loompa family can't afford to provoke Xayne, and the Riller family, even more so."Dominic wanted to learn more from Apollo, but Apollo waved, gesturing for the steward to escort them out.With the box in his arms, Dominic, accompanied by Gresham, returned to the car.Dominic's face was full of solemnity as he asked, "Gresham, what do you think?"Gresham drove, saying, "To make General Apollo so fearful, Xayne must not be just a normal live-in son-in-law of the Swift family. In my opinion, Xayne may be hiding a significant identity, and he is very likely a prominent figure in the military."Dominic's expression turned solemn as he said, "If that's the case, then the Riller family's vendetta might never be avenged."Gresham pondered momentarily before reminding, "If Xayne's influence makes even General Apollo of the Loompa family extremely wary, then perhaps it's not as simple as the Riller fa

    Dominic sighed. "Alas, if that's the case, the Riller family can only grit our teeth and swallow it."Dominic waved his hand and said to Gresham, " Gresham, take Lyzon into custody. We're going to the Swift family in Venzor."Lyzon, puzzled, said, "Mr. Dominic, I'm truly loyal to you. If you want to crush the Swift family, I can be your best help."Dominic shook his head and said, "I'm not going to seek revenge against Xayne. I'm going to apologize and make amends."At these words, Lyzon's jaw dropped in disbelief.The head of the Riller family in Xanwood, the Chief Prosecutor of the Xanwood Bureau of Law Enforcement, was going to Venzor to personally apologize to Xayne.It seemed like everything was over.It was now nighttime. The crescent moon was obscured, occasionally casting a ray of moonlight through the windows of countless households. The sky was dotted with stars, one or two blinking brightly.Accompanied by Gresham and Lyzon, Dominic hastily boarded the nearest flight

    Upon hearing this, Tony pondered for a moment before going back inside.Tim became angry. "Leaving Dominic waiting outside might anger them. By then, there will be no room for reconciliation."He went to the entrance of the Swift residence to greet them.To his surprise, the first words from Dominic were, "Is Mr. Xayne here?"Tim was stunned for a moment before slowly responding, "He's inside, in the main hall of the Swift residence. Originally, he was going to come out to greet you and apologize.""No." Dominic hurriedly shook his hand. "That's not the case. I came to the Swift family tonight specifically to apologize to Mr. Xayne."So, Dominic was coming to apologize in person.For a moment, Tim didn't react. With just a few words from Xayne, Dominic had rushed hundreds of miles overnight to apologize to the Swift family.Seeing Tim still in a daze, Dominic interrupted him, "Can you please take me upstairs to see him? I want to apologize to Mr. Xayne in person."Tim had no

    The night remained serene, with scattered stars in the sky.The rustling of leaves stirred by the gentle breeze and the chirping of cicadas filled the air, creating a tranquil atmosphere in the vast compound of the Swift residence.Tim watched Dominic leave the Swift residence, his eyes still reflecting his bewilderment and shock.Dominic rushed to the Swift family overnight, not for revenge, but to apologize.As an esteemed family in Xanwood, the Riller family came to apologize to a third-rate family in Venzor.Even with the truth right before him, Tim was unwilling to believe it.The Riller family, a prestigious family in Xanwood with the support of the Loompa family in the military theater, actually abandoned their family honor and knelt to apologize.Returning to his seat, Tim felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.Xayne did it.Xayne suddenly spoke up, "With the Riller family coming to apologize, perhaps it's time for a change in leadership in the Swift family?"X

    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
