Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1353
As a seasoned hitman, Bob knew the importance of reconnaissance before any job. After all, this was Drakonia, hailed as the nation with the highest security index. Mercenaries were not tolerated here. He had been under disguise for years, securing a fake identity through connections and cunning plans. So, it was crucial to plan the routes beforehand, whether for the operation or the escape."Is this the level of security they have?" Bob chuckled disdainfully as he passed by the Emperor Villa. The villa was grand, surrounded by cameras and various security measures, but to Bob, they seemed hardly worth mentioning. The electric fence was set low, and there were blind spots in the camera coverage. It was a breeze to slip in through those blind spots.Bob moved with agility, a swift run followed by two kicks against the wall, effortlessly vaulting over the electric fence and landing gracefully on the ground. "Too easy," he remarked as he strolled through the villa. He was not worrie

"You bastard... What's going on here?" Bob sprawled on the ground, unable to even see where Xayne was."With this lowly skill, you thought you could assassinate me?" Xayne remarked, hands casually tucked in his pockets as he strolled over to Bob.In an instant, Bob drew his pistols from his clothes, but before he could fire at Xayne, Xayne swiftly kicked both guns out of his hands, sending them clattering to the ground."Got any more tricks? Feel free to show them," Xayne sneered at Bob.Bob felt utterly defeated. He had not expected to find himself utterly powerless against this man. Despite easily taking down over a dozen bodyguards before, he felt like a helpless woman before Xayne.He began to question everything. "Tell me who sent you, and maybe I'll spare your life," Xayne said, stopping in front of Bob, his expression and tone casual as if he were just another passerby out for a stroll."Why are you so strong? The intel said you were just an ordinary man..." Bob's though

Soon, Draven's men arrived at the villa and took away Bob's body. The next evening, Tyson took the initiative to invite Tim to the temporary residence at the villa. Tyson finally broached the subject as they ate and drank, discussing company matters. "How was the task I entrusted you to do?"Tim smiled confidently. "I hired a very reliable hitman. With his extensive experience, there shouldn't be any issues."Tyson nodded. "I trust your abilities.""His name is Bob, ranked 72nd on the hit list. Have you heard of him?" Tim asked with a smile.Tyson shook his head. In his eyes, these hitmen were just his underlings. He only needed to pay them. They would become his tools, swords, and guns. He had no need to remember their names.Tim laughed awkwardly and took a sip of wine to cover up his embarrassment. Just then, his phone rang. Glancing down, he saw it was a message from his butler."Oh! Look at this, my butler is calling. He must have good news to report," Tim said, eager to boa
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1356
Almost simultaneously, hundreds of top-tier assassins locked onto the bounty, planning their journey to Drakonia. Although the number of hitmen seemed vast, they were scattered across the globe and were not gathered in one place. Moreover, there were only so many flights to Drakonia each day, making it impossible for unified screening.At the same time, Xayne, unusually, glanced at the Dark Network's website and naturally noticed the bounty on his head. "Oh? That's interesting," he muttered. Just as he logged into his account, countless messages from sponsors flooded in. Some tasked him with assassinating high-ranking officials overseas, others with eliminating his competitors, and some wanted him to deal with other candidates."You're offering such a low price. It's hard for me to help," Xayne complained before replying with a simple "Not interested." Yet, these two sentences stirred up a storm on the hitmen forum. They knew the Culu King, who ruled the assassination network, ha

Xayne had been studying the remaining content of the Heavenly Tome since returning to Venzor. He repeatedly reviewed the medical skills section, practiced some lost kickboxing techniques, and even trained in assassination techniques.After just a few days of contemplation and practice, Xayne felt that his strength had improved once again. To test himself, he sought out Draven for a sparring session."Drakon King, I won't hold back!" Draven stood on the villa's lawn, visibly excited and eager. They all admired Xayne and naturally wanted to spar with him to see where they fell short.Today, with the opportunity to spar with Xayne, Draven would not let it slip by. Without hesitation, he dove straight at Xayne, throwing a powerful punch aimed directly at his face.The force behind the punch was tremendous, swift, and lethal, capable of overwhelming even a Legend Warrior. After all, Draven was a Celestial Warrior.However, much to Draven's astonishment, Xayne did not budge. He calmly c

Next, Xayne continued to ponder over the contents of the torn manuscript. Meanwhile, Draven went out for a while before returning to the villa, his expression turned grave. He said to Xayne, "Drakon King, I just found out that Tim and Tyson arranged the assassins who targeted you a few days ago.""Tim and Tyson?" Xayne frowned at the mention of these names as he carefully stowed away the torn manuscript.Then, he laughed coldly, saying, "The Bullard family is quite something. They dared to extend their hands to the Swift family, trying to use them against me.""What should we do about it, Drakon King? Should we arrest Tim and the others?" Draven asked.Xayne frowned, saying, "No rush, let's wait and see. I want to see what kind of trouble Tim and Tyson can stir up."After that, Xayne left the villa and went straight to Serenco. Recently, the company had been dealing with the final affairs, planning to evacuate from Venzor in two days and relocate to Folksworth."Honey, are you do
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1359
As Xayne rushed into the building, he was met with a stream of people rushing out, covering their mouths and noses, each screaming in terror, their faces smudged with soot and panic.Against the tide, Xayne made his way through the crowded stairwells, heading toward the rooftop.Inside the entire building, smoke and terrifying flames filled the air.Finally, Xayne reached the floor where Serenco was located, and the entire floor was engulfed in raging flames.In front of him, thick black smoke and towering flames obscured his vision.The temperature was unbearably high.Xayne had soaked himself before entering. He covered his mouth and nose with a wet cloth, braving the engulfing flames as he charged into Serenco.He kicked open the door to Serena's office, and with a thunderous crash, the door shattered, followed by a blast of flames rushing toward him.The scorching blast sent Xayne flying several meters, crashing heavily into nearby furniture.However, Xayne paid no attenti
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1360
With those words, the dark figure vanished instantly from Xayne's sight.Xayne frowned as he looked at the sea of flames before him, quickly retreating into the office.Then, he rushed to the storage room, pouring the remaining buckets of water over Serena and himself.Afterward, he held Serena and turned to face the entire floor-to-ceiling glass window.He did not hesitate at that moment, striding quickly toward the floor-to-ceiling glass window. With a bang, he smashed through the massive glass window, holding the unconscious Serena, leaping from the seventh or eighth floor.In that instant, everyone on the street—the onlookers, the scattered crowds, and the firefighters battling the blaze—were all shocked by the deafening sound overhead.They looked up to see a figure carrying another person, crashing through the glass curtain wall from the seventh or eighth floor and then leaping down.At that moment, the shattered glass refracted colorful hues in the sunlight.Because of

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
Chapter 2687
"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
Chapter 2686
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

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
Chapter 2681
They had been supreme powerhouses, returning from the outer battlegrounds—warriors far beyond the likes of those reclusive Radiant Commanders of Eukrania. The environments that had shaped them could not have been more different.In the outer battlegrounds, battles to the death had been a daily occurrence. Meanwhile, the so-called Bi-Radiant Commanders of Eukrania had spent their days in seclusion. The gap between them had been as vast as the heavens and the abyss.That was precisely why Xayne had been able to slaughter eight of them at the outset yet still failed to bring down the remaining three. When it came to battle experience, understanding of formations, and sheer mental fortitude, Fent and Elder Stringer had surpassed the others by an overwhelming margin."You overestimate yourselves. I was merely testing some insights I've recently comprehended!" Xayne’s voice was cold.The moment those words fell, Fent and Elder Stringer’s expressions darkened."Xayne, you are indeed formidabl

Xayne spun abruptly, his Ravenclaw Dagger and Scarlet Dragon Lance striking out at Elder Stringer and Fent in unison. In an instant, dazzling light engulfed the sky, turning everything into a blinding silver-white.The sheer intensity caused distant cameras to suffer momentary overexposure, while those positioned too close melted instantly under the searing heat waves. The shockwave from their clash alone sent entire blocks of buildings crumbling into rubble. Yet despite the destruction, Xayne was not unscathed—his skin split open, and blood flowed freely from his wounds.Still, he remained standing, his Scarlet Dragon Lance firmly in his grasp, his figure as proud and unyielding as ever. What troubled him most, however, was the phantom of himself conjured by the enemy’s formation. After all, no one understood him better than himself.As expected, the moment presented itself. The phantom Xayne seized the opportunity and launched a sneak attack at his back.Without turning his head, Xay
