Xayne looked at Edwin and asked, "Mr. Edwin, it seems like you're quite interested."Edwin smiled and said, "Commander Xayne, don't misunderstand. After all, the place we're going to is the Black Prison, where there are many Legend Warriors.."Xayne nodded. "Mr. Edwin, don't worry, I will ensure your safety. If need be, you won't need to disembark when the time comes.""Very well, very well." Edwin smiled.The next day, Edwin arranged for Baruk to set sail. At the dock, Baruk warmly hugged Xayne upon seeing him, saying, "Commander Xayne, it's been too long. I've missed you terribly."Xayne politely smiled. Then, the group boarded the ship.This time, their journey to the island where the Black Prison was located went smoothly. In less than half a day, they approached the vicinity of the island where the Black Prison was located, about three nautical miles away.Xayne stood on the deck, gazing at the black island in front of him, surrounded by reefs and cliffs. The entire island
The four mercenaries behind him also kept their guns raised, observing their surroundings. Edwin was full of anger, but he dared not speak out. He turned to Xayne and asked, "Commander, what do you think?"Xayne did not hesitate at all. "I'll go in.""Commander!""Drakon King!""You absolutely can't do this! The Black Prison is extremely dangerous. We must stay by your side!" Ace and Draven were both very anxious.However, Xayne calmly patted their shoulders and smiled. "Rest assured, I know what I'm doing. You stay outside. If I haven't come out in three days, you go back and follow the plan I arranged earlier!""Yes!" Draven and Ace respectfully agreed. Then, they watched helplessly as Xayne stepped through the iron gate and entered the Black Prison.The iron gate closed with a bang. Draven and Ace stood at the entrance. The man sitting on the boulder eating roasted meat stared coldly and sharply at Draven, making a throat-slitting gesture. Seeing this, Draven frowned. Just
The off-road vehicle screeched to a halt at the sound of Xayne's question.In an instant, the man with dark military attire and tan skin turned his face, his eyes coldly locking onto Xayne. He asked in a chilling tone, "Are you here to find Xander?"Xayne frowned, his face serious as he nodded. He replied, "Yes."The man's complexion grew even graver. Then, a cold smirk appeared on his lips as he slammed the accelerator, sending the off-road vehicle speeding away.He sneered, "Interesting. In all these years, you're the third person to come looking for Xander.""Third? You mean, before me, two other groups came looking for Xander?"Hearing this, Xayne tensed.Others were looking for his grandfather, too."Yes."The man nodded, adding, "But none of them met Xander before leaving.""Why didn't they meet him?" Xayne asked.After a moment of silence, the man replied, "Because there's no Xander here."The words shocked Xayne.'There's no Xander in the Black Prison? Isn't my gra
After passing through the inspection by the mercenaries at the entrance, Xayne and the tan-skinned man entered the cave.The entrance was about a dozen meters long, damp and musty. As they walked through, they were stunned by the scene before them.Inside the cave was a hidden world filled with top-notch weapons and ammunition boxes scattered everywhere.With their burly builds and fierce, provocative gazes, a few foreign mercenaries were inspecting weapons on both sides. They eyed the tan-skinned man and Xayne as they entered.Further inside, they saw a wall lined with electronic screens displaying various surveillance feeds from the entire Black Prison, showing scenes from the dense forest.Occasionally, shadows would flash across the screens, and mercenaries could be seen running and hunting.Standing before these screens was a curvaceous woman in tight black military attire, with a pistol and dagger at her waist, leaning on a table with her back to Xayne.Her posture was cap
Upon hearing Alice's words, Xayne frowned."Why me?" Xayne asked.Alice straightforwardly replied, "Because you're strong."Such a straightforward answer left Xayne somewhat helpless.After thinking for a moment, he said, "If I help you take over the north section, I can meet with 01, right?""Of course." Alice nodded."Alright," Xayne agreed.Hearing Xayne's agreement, Alice patted his shoulder, saying, "Great, let's go."With that, Alice swiftly pulled a pistol from her waist, cocked it, then holstered it again, nodding to the people behind her.In an instant, the people seemed incredibly excited, rushing out whistling.Soon after, dozens of mercenaries brought out their top-notch equipment from the cave, even moving the ammunition boxes.A few military off-road vehicles and armored cars were already waiting at the entrance.The mercenaries, dressed in green military uniforms, were now very excited, raising their submachine guns and single-shot rocket launchers.Alice go
Every time, an opponent was eliminated.She was truly ruthless.Just then, an explosion rang out.In everyone's eyes, a rocket shot out from the depths of the forest. It locked on Alice, who was getting hyped in the fight.Alice noticed it, but it was too late to dodge.At that moment, a figure swooped down from above, rushing in from the side, grabbing Alice, and rolling away.In an instant, the rocket flattened the place where Alice had just stood, sending flames shooting skyward.Alice fell to the ground, cursing at the crater, then got up and charged back into the fight.Xayne was exasperated. This woman couldn't even thank him.The battlefield was heating up, and the north section's firepower was noticeably diminishing.Alice signaled, telling her remaining team members to halt their fire.The forest was filled with the rustling of leaves and the distant growls of beasts.The atmosphere suddenly grew tense.Suddenly, crisp footsteps echoed through the woods.These fo
Facing the charging Legend Warrior once again, Xayne shook his head helplessly. "You're no match for me.""Only by fighting will we know." The shirtless man roared back, instantly closing the distance and delivering a fierce punch to Xayne's heart.For anyone below the level of a Legend Warrior, such a punch would shatter the heart, resulting in instant death. However, Xayne remained calm, raising his hand to catch the man's fist effortlessly.Despite the shirtless man's effort, his fist seemed trapped, unable to advance even an inch.The shirtless man roared angrily, drawing a sharp dagger from his waist with his other hand. Gleaming with a cold light, he aimed to slash Xayne's neck in a lightning-fast motion.A cold light flashed in Xayne's eyes as he countered with a powerful punch to the man's chest.With immense force, the punch sent the shirtless man flying several meters backward, spinning in the air before crashing to the ground.The next second, the shirtless man clim
Xayne was momentarily stunned. This woman was overly enthusiastic. Before him, several mercenaries had faces full of admiration, continuously giving him thumbs up and praising him in various languages.Finally managing to get Alice to release him, Xayne said, "You can't proceed any further. I'll handle this on my own."With a worried expression, Alice replied, "No. We will accompany you. You are our Legend Warrior. We must protect you."Xayne felt overwhelmed. Somehow, he ended up with more followers."Alice, trust me. I can handle this. If you proceed again, you will die without a doubt. If I don't return in two days, you can do whatever you want," Xayne earnestly said.After pondering for a moment, Alice agreed, "Alright. I'll listen to you, my Legend Warrior."With that settled, Xayne turned and walked towards the depths of the north section. Alice and her team watched until his figure disappeared before they rested in place, preparing to keep watch.Meanwhile, Xayne navigate
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
