Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 131
Donovan’s demeanor was cold and overwhelming, causing Darren to frown. He declared, “Mr. Donovan, are you somehow connected to this kid? I’ll kill him for hurting my daughter. Even you can’t hold me back!”In Shalholm’s underworld, Darren’s reputation was lower than Donovan’s. While the latter was one of the top figures, Darren was part of a larger group. Still, they could not compare to Donovan’s strengths, assets, and influence.However, the two were equally as brutal and dominant.Suddenly, an astonishing scene stunned Darren and everyone else. Donovan laughed coldly and turned around. He looked at Xayne and bowed to show respect, saying, “Sorry I’m late, Mr. Xayne.”Donovan maintained a 90-degree bow, unwilling to stand upright unless Xayne gave the order.Darren was utterly shocked and widened his eyes in disbelief.‘Donovan is bowing to that man?! Am I hallucinating?!’Meanwhile, Xayne asked, "Can you handle this?"Donovan replied, "Please rest assured, Mr. Xayne. No one

‘What?! Who’s shutting down my establishments and arresting my men? T-That can’t be right.’Darren snatched the phone from his subordinate. The former looked shocked as he tried calling several numbers, but none connected. Cold sweat dripped from Darren’s forehead as he panicked.He stared at Donovan in disbelief, asking, “Did you team up with Harold to come after me?”Donovan chucked. “I don’t have to get Chief Saun on board. It was Mr. Xayne’s idea.”Darren turned to look at Xayne sipping wine on a nearby couch with Tracy and Candy kneeling on the sidelines. The two girls dared not lift their heads as they knelt beside Xayne. Instead, they trembled in fear. They had never experienced such a terrifying situation before.Darren’s appearance made sense, but no one expected Donovan to show up. Moreover, the latter bowed to Xayne. It was a terrifying scenario, and the girls felt they could die of fear.Darren could no longer suppress his fear and asked, “W-Who the hell are you?”‘H

Darren felt like the world was collapsing. The things he had fought hard for might end today because of the terrifying man before him.‘That man made Chief Saun travel from Shalholm and peak with such respect. How powerful is that man?’Thud!Darren knelt on the ground as sweat poured from his panicked face. Soon after, Harold turned to gaze at Darren, questioning, “Do you have anything to say now?”Darren raised his head, trembling as he looked at the calm Xayne. Then the former crawled over and knocked his head on the ground, begging for mercy, “Mr. Xayne, I was wrong! Please spare me! I was foolish to offend you. I’ve made a terrible mistake, but it wasn’t my intention.“It was hers! Tracy instigated us and deliberately caused trouble. She humiliated your wife!” Darren was desperate. Blood from his forehead stained the floor as he continued to bang it on the ground.Darren’s subordinates were stunned, and each of them dropped their weapons before kneeling alongside him.Meanw

Oliver and Tracy bowed repeatedly, saying, “Thank you, Mr. Xayne!”Oliver added, “I’ll bring my daughter to your door tomorrow. We will apologize with a generous gift!”The others also bowed and expressed their gratitude for Xayne’s mercy. When he turned and left, Darren collapsed.‘It’s all over for me.’Donovan looked at the once arrogant Darren crumble. The former chuckled and said, “One wrong move can cost you the whole game. That’s the hand you’ve been dealt.”Soon after, Harold waved and ordered, “Take them away!”The shocking news rocked all of Shalholm the following day. Harold seized the Brunt Group overnight and sent Darren and Emily to prison. In addition, Donovan acquired all their entertainment venues and assets. Simultaneously, he took Darren’s men into his crew.The fame of Shalholm’s Grim Reaper skyrocketed overnight, capturing the city’s attention. Meanwhile, Eric and Tim gave Serena an earful at the Swift Group.Tim was currently representing the company as Vi

“W-What? Oliver Reinhart came here?”Eric paled as he looked at Serena with anxiety and resentment. He exclaimed, “Serena, are you trying to run our family? It’s one mishap after another with you. Are you the family’s curse?”Sophia seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, “Hmph! She’s nothing but bad luck, Grandpa. We’ve had one problem after another since we took her back. I say we’re better off driving her and Xayne out.”She still held a grudge against Xayne for his audacious actions in the yard a few days ago.“Hmph!” Eric snorted and stood, saying, “What are you all sitting around for? Get out there and welcome Mr. Oliver!”The higher-ups and Swift family relatives berated Serena as they moved.“She’s nothing but a curse. Because of her, we had to come for a meeting so early in the morning.”“The Swifts will perish sooner or later because of her.”“What a worthless scum, shamelessly living under the Swifts’ care. I would’ve packed up and left if I were her.”Seren

Oliver felt conflicted when he saw Eric’s actions.‘If I allow Eric to strike Serena, wouldn’t Mr. Xayne kill me and wipe out my family?’Oliver quickly stopped Eric and shouted, “Sir, you’ve misunderstood! I didn’t come here to confront Serena.”Eric and everyone else was shocked when they heard Oliver’s words.“Mr. Oliver, you don’t have to be polite. Since Serena has offended you, she deserves punishment. I heard about what happened, and I agree it’s her fault,” Eric spoke as he looked at Tracy.‘It’s clear Serena caused those injuries on Tracy’s face!’Eric thundered, “Why are you still standing? Kneel and apologize to Tracy!”Although Serena felt aggrieved as she faced Eric and her family’s oppressive attitude, she could only cry and kneel.However, Oliver quickly stopped her and said, “Ms. Serena, you don’t need to kneel. It should be Tracy who kneels and apologizes to you.”He looked around and noticed everyone’s shock. After a pause, he shouted, “What are you all stand

“Nonsense, Tracy! Get out of the way!” Oliver cut his daughter’s words short and glared at her, scaring her into silence.Then he turned to Serena and said smilingly, “Ms. Serena, you’ve misunderstood. It was all Tracy’s fault initially. As her father, I don’t want to see her making so many mistakes. That’s why I brought her here to apologize to you.”Serena looked skeptical when she heard that, but she did not pry. Afterward, Oliver apologized again before leaving the Swift Group with Tracy.When they left, the higher-ups and the Swifts discussed what had happened.“What’s happening?! Someone like Oliver here with his daughter to apologize?”“I don’t know what’s happening either, but it doesn’t matter. I’m just glad everything’s over.”“Hmph! It still doesn’t change the fact that Serena is a curse! We should kick her out of the Swift family.”Eric frowned and then glared at Serena. “I hope you’ll be more careful and stop embarrassing us. We won’t pursue this incident for now.”

“The Lennings? Are you talking about Kendall?” Sophia shivered.Ethan nodded. “Back then, someone sabotaged the engagement banquet between Kendall and the son of the Xavier family. The Xaviers called off the engagement that night. You might not know about it because the Lennings kept it under wraps, but I just got wind of it.”"What?" Sophia grew excited as she stood from the sofa, asking, “The Xaviers called off Kendall’s engagement? That’s a big deal, but how does it relate to dealing with Xayne and Serena?”Ethan waved for Sophia to come closer.When she sat on his lap, he wrapped his arm around her waist and said, “Xayne’s the one who disrupted the engagement. After the incident, Kendall was devastated and swore to get back at him.“I also learned that the son of the Lenning family, Adrian Lenning, has returned from East Yoskea Military Theater. Do you know what position he holds now?”With suspicion and excitement in her eyes, Sophia asked, "Adrian Lenning? Are you talking a

"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
Chapter 2685
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
Chapter 2684
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
Chapter 2682
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
