Chapter 1403
Author: Blanco Burn
However, that was exactly the case. Since their meat could not sell, they had to put it in the fridge and wait until the next day.

As a result, the meat had some strange odors, and some even turned bad. However, to save costs, they still put them on the grill for barbecue and used a lot of spices to cover the smell.

Many people did not feel weird eating it but ended up spending the whole day in the restroom afterwards.

Because of this, they received a lot of complaints, and the business became worse and worse.

However, Edward always felt it was because of Tony. He was sure Tony had hired someone to complain about him, deliberately tarnishing his store's reputation and intending to ruin his business.

So, he gathered his fellow villagers to discuss a strategy to deal with Tony.

These few were uncultured people, making decisions without much thought. They decided to create a scene there using the excuse of food problems.

In the end, Tony was nodding meekly and even agreed to pay th

    Tony saw Xayne coming over and cried out, "Xayne, you finally came."Xayne saw Tony lying on the ground, yelling. Xayne instantly knew what these people had done. He rolled up his sleeves and walked slowly toward Tony.Seeing Xayne approaching step by step, the villagers did not feel intimidated. They even picked up weapons and walked toward Xayne."I heard you're the son-in-law, right? Eating and drinking at your in-laws place, isn't it embarrassing?"Edward heard Tony calling his name and knew who the newcomer was."In our village, we look down on people like you, who marry into a well-off family. You're just a useless man who enters others' homes!"Will your future sons also take their wives' last names? Anyway, you're a wimp, plus you are useless."Hehehe, I heard your wife looks beautiful. Tony, how about considering getting a new son-in-law?"They completely disregarded Xayne, even thinking that he came alone to his death."What you wanted, I've brought it for you." Xa

    "What should we do now? We can't escape anymore.""If Xayne could find this place, they must have called the police. Likely, all cops are outside now.""We're doomed, we'll be caught and thrown into jail."They stood in front of the door, feeling somewhat desperate.Originally, grabbing Tony was just a spontaneous decision. They just wanted to cause a scene, extort some money, and leave. However, they did not expect to get themselves into such big trouble.Xayne calmly approached Tony, untied him, and inspected his father-in-law's condition."Dad, are you okay?" Xayne asked.Tony pointed angrily at them and cursed, "I'm fine. Since I'm not dead yet, I definitely won't let them escape! These people are just too evil!""Don't worry, I definitely won't let them escape," Xayne said, looking at the people standing before the door, a fierce light shining in his eyes.Those people were still brainstorming in front of the door."What can we do now?""This guy is too strong.

    Almost in an instant, he immediately hit the ground. The bullet grazed past his head, blasting the container in front of him.Xayne turned around and shot, piercing through the head of the attacker behind him.He looked up at the blown-up container and saw red chunks inside. It was pangolin carcasses.It turned out that these people specifically used hunting rifles to hunt in the mountains.No wonder this warehouse was well hidden. There were firearms here."You'd better put down your weapons and surrender quickly. Surrendering now is still an option," Xayne urged them.When Xayne closed his eyes, he had already sensed the presence of two other people.The two people were near him, and one person's whereabouts were unknown.They were too nervous. Their breathing became extremely heavy. Xayne could easily detect their movements if he listened carefully.Xayne pulled the trigger directly toward the wooden crate in front of him, and a figure collapsed in front of him.He had intended to h

    Suddenly, he saw Xayne steadily approaching him. He immediately turned the gun toward Xayne.The moment the gun moved away from Tony, Xayne suddenly threw a Ravenclaw dagger, directly piercing it into the man's forehead.The man did not even have a chance to fire his gun as he collapsed to the ground.Blood dripped onto Tony's body, frightening him so much that he dared not move."This... this..." Tony sat on the ground, completely scared out of his wits.This ruthless attitude and fierce, decisive action was akin to a Grim Reaper.‘Is this the King of the North? He's terrifying!’He now deeply regretted all the foolish things he had done before.Outside the door, the sound of police sirens could be heard, followed by the door being violently kicked open.Police officers rushed in quickly, arriving at the warehouse. The police department was shocked when they saw that the containers were filled with the carcasses of rare animals and that several people, including Edward, were

    At the dining table the next day, Serena told Xayne, "Xayne, my cousin Aliyah knows that we're in Folksworth, and she's insisting on coming over. She wants to learn how to run a company with me. She's currently a graduate student and wants to transfer to a school in Folksworth. Can you help recommend a school for her?"Looking at Serena's cute, pouting expression, Xayne smiled faintly and said, "Sure, no problem. I'll arrange it later.""Thank you, hubby," Serena said with a smile, leaning over and kissing Xayne on the cheek before getting up and leaving directly. "I'm off to work."Xayne nodded and watched Serena leave.Not long after, Violet and Tony also woke up. They exchanged a few words with Xayne before heading to the store to deal with the aftermath of the damage.As for Royce, he was rarely seen since coming to Folksworth. In Violet's words, he was always hanging out with the rich scions of Folksworth, and she did not know what he was up to.After breakfast, Xayne droppe

    When they arrived at the university, students sprawled the campus, and the strict order indicated an excellent academic atmosphere here.Xayne drove to the university's teaching building and then proceeded to the administrative office.A teacher greeted Xayne. "Mr. Xayne, the principal is in a meeting right now. You might have to wait for a while," the teacher said with a smile."No problem, I'll wait here for a while."Although Xayne also maintained a smile, a hint of dissatisfaction flickered in his eyes as he sat down.He had already made an appointment with the principal beforehand, which meant it had been agreed upon in advance to meet at this specific time. However, the principal stood him up.From this, it was evident that the principal did not value him, indicating either a lack of regard or an intentional show of authority.Aliyah also sensed something was amiss in the atmosphere, so she waited.After waiting for nearly two hours, it was not until the accompanying teac

    Xayne stayed silent."Mr. Xayne, you really think you can get our school to make an exception without paying a price? That's pretty naive, don't you think?"The students here mostly got in through proper assessments and formal procedures. Suddenly slipping a new student in without giving the school some incentive? Others wouldn't stand for it."Jim adjusted his glasses.At that moment, he looked less like an academic and more like a shrewd businessman."You can arrange an entrance exam for her instead of using money as a bribe. Aren't you afraid the education department might investigate you for such blatant corruption?" Xayne said sternly."Heh, go ahead and bring in the inspector. Suppose you can't, don't threaten me with the education department. I'm telling you, I won't fall for that!" Jim remained unfazed. He had seen many try to intimidate him with the education department before."Well then, I'll call the inspector right now." Xayne's face darkened as he picked up his pho

    After a long while, Xayne said, "So, Mr. Jim, you're saying that as long as I'm willing to pay fifteen thousand, you'll let Aliyah enroll in school, right?"Jim smiled. "Even if you offer fifteen thousand now, I still don't intend to let her enroll in our school. It's already too late. Of course, if you increase the price to seventy thousand, I might reconsider it."Jim deliberately raised the bar again because he believed that Xayne couldn't even come up with fifteen thousand, let alone seventy thousand.Just as he finished speaking, his phone suddenly rang.If it were any other call, he would have hung up first because he was negotiating a "big deal" worth seventy thousand and wasn't interested in anything else. However, when he saw that the call was from the education department, he panicked and answered it."What did you do? Who have you offended? The education department is investigating you, do you know?" The voice of the deputy bureau chief came through the phone, extremely

    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

    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

    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

    Even in Eukrania, with four Radiant Commanders fallen, the inevitable had to be acknowledged—Xayne was beyond anything they had ever seen.The Emperor let out a wry smile. At this moment, the world’s attention was fixed on the battle raging over Folksworth. Major news outlets from across the globe had arrived, capturing every moment in live broadcasts. Radiant Commanders clashing openly—this alone was enough to shake the world. It meant the ancient contract forbidding Radiant Commanders from interfering in the mortal realm had been broken.But the true terror was not in one or two Radiant Commanders meddling in human affairs. It lay in the possibility that all Radiant Commanders could now walk freely among mortals. The fundamental difference between a Radiant Commander and a Divine Commander was simple: Radiant Commanders could not be killed—not even by nuclear weapons.If the threat of mortal weaponry no longer restrained them, they would, by default, rise above all others. When that

    From the very start, the battle at Folksworth had drawn the highest level of attention from the Emperor. Not only had the media broadcasted it nationwide with aerial drone footage, but the Black Ice Platform had also deployed agents to closely monitor every move on the battlefield.The Emperor glanced at his watch—it was nearly noon. Thankfully, Xayne was still holding his ground. Yves paced back and forth, restless.Of the eleven elite fighters White Blossom Mountain had sent, eight were already dead, including two Bi-Radiant Commanders. But the real threats remained. Fent, Elder Stringer, and Yeti, all masters of formations, had served as the core combat power of the group.In the outer world, Yeti was among the strongest of the Bi-Radiant Commanders, someone even outer battleground warriors treated with respect. With opponents like these, there was no telling if Xayne would make it out alive. The doors of the Emperor's Pavillion burst open. Elder Waze strode in, his face grim.

    Another brutal, bone-crushing strike sent a violent tremor through Xayne's arms, leaving them slightly numb. He couldn't help but marvel, 'No wonder this guy was a legendary warrior from the Three Kingdoms era.' Just that one strike alone could've split a mountain in half. Before Xayne could steady himself, a spear came hurtling straight for his chest, blazing fast, almost like a laser. With a roar, Xayne launched himself into the air, swinging his Scarlet Dragon Lance in a powerful arc. The two Scarlet Dragon Lances collided midair, unleashing a shockwave so intense that even Spartacus, who had been ready to strike, was forced back several steps. Xayne himself was sent flying sideways by the sheer force. Then a sharp, icy pain shot through his left arm. He let out a muffled grunt. The Ravenclaw dagger had pierced straight through his arm, embedding itself in the wall behind him. Since becoming a Radiant Commander, he had battled against the Four Radiant Commanders of Eukran

    Fent's eyes widened as Xayne evaded his lethal strike. With a flick of his sleeve, a glint of cold light shot forth like a falling star. A chilling sense of death descended upon Xayne. At that moment, Xayne was locked in combat against the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and a spear over three meters long. He had no choice but to manipulate the spatial magnetic field to knock the deadly projectile out of the air. His Scarlet Dragon Lance clashed with the Green Dragon Crescent Blade once more, sending a silver explosion ripping through the battlefield. It was as if a miniature nuclear blast had detonated in midair. Even Elder Stringer had to turn his head, unable to face the searing light. At the same time, an even more intense sense of mortal danger surged toward Xayne. Acting purely on instinct, he twisted his head and, in the same motion, flung out his Ravenclaw dagger. Two Ravenclaw daggers collided in midair, releasing a devastating shockwave that sent even Xayne hurtling back
