Dyron shouted, "Open the city gates."As the gates opened, Ace led fifty thousand soldiers straight in.Xayne's orders were clear. They were all from Drakonia. They would be spared if they were willing to submit. Those who refused would be killed without hesitation.Therefore, Ace's fifty thousand soldiers headed straight for the Blood Butcher lineage, along with Dyron and his deputy on the city wall.In Dyron's shocked eyes, Dragos appeared directly behind Dyron."Who are you?" Dyron, esteemed as a Grand Mater Warrior, was formidable, but he had no awareness of Dragos appearing behind him, which undoubtedly frightened him.He didn't know if this person was a friend or foe.If he were a friend, Dyron would naturally be happy. After all, no one wanted to become an opponent of a terrifying person. However, if it were an enemy, it would be a disaster.Dragos replied calmly, "I'm one of the Dracarium Dracoguards, Dragos."Dyron widened his eyes. They were Xayne's men.Xayne was d
No matter what tricks Blood Butcher had hidden, Xayne was determined to tear him apart.Nobody knew what secrets were hidden in Blood Butcher's villa. There might be heavy weapons, an army of idle soldiers, or perhaps even biochemical weapons.Today, the army pressed in.Blood Butcher was restless inside the villa.Dixon seemed to have disappeared completely, with no messages returning. It was as if there was no longer such a person in Folksworth.Blood Butcher clenched his phone, pacing back and forth in the villa.He made a call to Dyron, but no one answered.Blood Butcher collapsed on the sofa. His eyes were both blind.He shouted, "Someone, anyone."A soldier came out from the door, and Blood Butcher asked anxiously, "How’s the Medicine Exhibition Center? Any news?"The soldier stuttered, "Nothing."Blood Butcher roared furiously, "And what about the Folksworth gate?"The soldier replied cautiously, "Nothing, still nothing."Blood Butcher shouted hoarsely, "Useless scu
Seeing this, Blood Butcher grinned. "Do you think the three of you can trap me? Do you know how many idle soldiers are hidden in this villa? A thousand."Under the watchful eyes of the three Dracoguards, Blood Butcher behaved unusually.He shouted, "Help. I'm trapped."The three Dracoguards turned to look at the door in response, and Blood Butcher took the opportunity to press a button on the desk, revealing a secret passage below.Under the gaze of the three Dracoguards, Blood Butcher escaped directly into the secret passage."Chase him."Draven didn't hesitate and decided to chase after Blood Butcher.However, more and more soldiers poured in, surrounding the three Dracoguards.They were Blood Butcher's trump card, a group of idle soldiers he raised, waiting for his command.Dracarium took action, but Blood Butcher had no confidence in a decisive battle.No one lived when they were met with the Dracarium banner. Escaping was the only thing Blood Butcher could do now.Stayi
However, Blood Butcher did not press his advantage but turned and fled.Indeed, Blood Butcher was defeated before the battle even began. Faced with Xayne, Blood Butcher had no intention of defeating him.After all, Xayne was a Celestial Dracarium Commander.If he could rally the 30,000 soldiers of Folksworth, perhaps he could overwhelm Xayne with sheer numbers.Now, Blood Butcher had no soldier under his command. If he fought head-on, it would be a dead end.Xayne simply shrugged off his robe, blocking all the silver needles sent by Blood Butcher. Then, he caught up to Blood Butcher and kicked him to the ground with a single blow.Blood Butcher rolled over and stood up, frowning tightly as he looked at Xayne. "You forced me into this. Know that today, I didn't want to fight you to the death, but you left me no choice. Today, I will completely erase you."Xayne sneered.In the vast Drakonia, countless people wished for his death. Yet he was alive and well here, even outliving
Blood Butcher had no reservations.Even after swallowing the forbidden drug that could greatly enhance his strength, he still feared Xayne's power.In an instant, Blood Butcher's figure rushed forward.Xayne remained cold and sharp. He was still, his eyes fixed coldly on the oncoming Blood Butcher.In Xayne's eyes, Blood Butcher's fist was attacking his chest, exuding a red bloodthirsty aura.Blood Butcher's target was Xayne's heart.This set of actions was swift and ruthless.Blood Butcher's goal was simple. It was to kill Xayne and present his head to the Flame King for rewards and honors.If this strike hit successfully, whoever it was would undoubtedly be dead.However, Xayne's eyes showed no fear.Xayne just coldly stared at the charging Blood Butcher. In just an instant, the aura emanating from Xayne's body suddenly changed dramatically, directly attacking Blood Butcher head-on.In that instant, Blood Butcher stopped his attack. His eyes were filled with a look of horr
At this moment, Blood Butcher's body unexpectedly once again emitted a stronger aura than before.Not only did Xayne feel Blood Butcher's incredibly powerful aura at this moment, but even the three Dracoguards of the Dracarium who were far away from the battlefield also felt the oppressive atmosphere around them.The potential of the forbidden drug awakened for the second time, even stronger than before.It could be said that Blood Butcher's terrifying aura at this moment had completely become the strongest presence in this area.Feeling the boundless power unrestricted within him, Blood Butcher smirked and looked at Xayne before him, saying viciously, "Xayne, so what if you're an Eternal Commander? Today, I will be the first person in Drakonia to kill an Eternal Commander."Xayne frowned and snorted. "Flame King was unworthy, and you are even more unworthy."Blood Butcher stood up as if stimulated and walked toward Xayne.In an instant, this overwhelming aura swept over Xayne.
"No, this can't be happening." Blood Butcher's eyes were filled with undeniable disbelief.Suddenly, Blood Butcher looked up at Xayne and roared, "What have you done to me? What have you done to me? Why can't I feel any power within me? Why?"The saddest thing in life was not knowing the reason for failure until it was too late.Xayne walked toward Blood Butcher, picking up the Ravenclaw Dagger.At the same time, Blood Butcher again spat out a mouthful of blood, which didn't stop.In an instant, Blood Butcher felt an extremely oppressive force at his chest.This force surged left and right within Blood Butcher's body, causing him to roll on the ground."Look at Blood Butcher's body. It seems like there's something stuck in Blood Butcher's acupoints," Draven seemed to have noticed something and told Drakix and Draluna.Draluna and Drakix stared at Blood Butcher intently, focusing their gaze.It was true.Under the faint moonlight, a small needle-shaped object emitting a white l
Xayne was filled with a strong intent to kill, drawing out his Ravenclaw Dagger and stabbing fiercely toward Blood Butcher.This strike was filled with a deadly aura.The tip of the Ravenclaw Dagger struck Blood Butcher's heart.It could be said that if this strike landed, Blood Butcher would surely not survive.However, in just that moment, a bullet flew straight toward Xayne, aiming for his heart.Xayne quickly dodged by turning his head, avoiding the bullet.The bullet flew straight into the air without any fuse and exploded.Had it contained poison, Xayne would have been poisoned instantly.The three Dracoguards of Dracarium shouted, "Drakon King, watch out!"Immediately, they rushed toward Xayne with a determination to die.Their goal was simple—to shield Xayne from the fragments or poison after the bullet explosion.However, after the bullet exploded, a dense gray mist spread through the jungle.Almost instantly, the mist enveloped the entire forest.At this moment,
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
