Serena sat on the couch, gently touching her neck. Her mind was filled with the image of Xayne covered in blood. She could not help but zone out.

When she recalled the scene in the lab, especially the critical moment when Xayne appeared, her eyes sparkled with a sense of happiness.

In no time, Xayne returned, holding a small medicine bottle. He held up the red bottle and said, "Stay still."

Serena immediately straightened up, obediently sitting like a well-behaved child. Upon closer inspection, her neck was as fair as snow, with bruises starkly visible, some even seeping blood.

"This medicine will heal the scars and regenerate the skin. It's very effective," Xayne said as he poured some of the liquid into his hand and rubbed his palms together to warm it up. "My wife is so beautiful, it wouldn’t be right for her neck to have scars."

Hearing this, Serena looked up at Xayne, her eyes shining brightly.

"It might sting a bit at first, but then it'll feel cool. Just bear with it," Xay

    "I'll go with you." Serena insisted as she stood up. She knew what Xayne was about to do and wanted to see it for herself.Xayne shook his head, looking at Serena with a gentle yet firm gaze. "No, you can't go. Stay here and wait."Xayne knew Serena was smart, and his eyes showed a hint of tenderness as he looked at her. However, this tenderness was coupled with an undeniable resolve. "The scene will be pretty gruesome. You're a woman, and it might leave you with nightmares," he explained.After all, there was one person severely injured and another dead. Xayne intended to use some brutal methods to uncover the mastermind behind the attack. Bringing Serena along would not be appropriate and could complicate his plans."But they came here to kill me," Serena stubbornly insisted. She walked up to Xayne, looking into his eyes with determination. "This is related to me. I have to go!"Xayne frowned, feeling helpless. "All right, but I'm warning you, it's going to be bloody. If you can

    Xayne did not pay attention to how Serena was reacting. Instead, he crouched beside Ozark's corpse. Sometimes, corpses tell the underlying truth. He ripped open Ozark's lab coat, exposing his entire body. Pale skin, some bruising, and a completely collapsed chest that felt soft and squishy like cotton.Serena frowned with a nauseating urge, but she stood her ground. Xayne examined the body thoroughly. Aside from some wounds, there were no other distinguishing marks or identifiers.'No tattoos or marks to indicate his affiliation with a killer organization?'Xayne shook his head and walked to the unconscious Ziglar, giving him a few kicks. Ziglar awoke in pain, gasping as the agony in his knees and shoulders hit him.Opening his eyes, he saw Xayne's smiling face and instinctively assumed a defensive posture. However, moving aggravated his wounds, causing blood to gush out."I advise you not to move. It'll speed up your blood loss and lead to shock," Xayne said while grinning. His k

    "Ask away. I'll tell you everything I know."Ziglar hesitated for a moment, then mustered his courage to agree. He could not afford to gamble. He did not know what this man in front of him would do to him. For him, time equaled life. He hoped that by being forthright, he might gain some mercy.However, Ziglar was wrong. From the start, Xayne had no intention of letting him go."Who are you? Or rather, where are you from?" Xayne asked, thinking of the first question."We're from Deathly Stingers, a nationwide assassin organization," Ziglar replied, hoping the name of his organization would intimidate Xayne. But to his surprise, Xayne did not even flinch, not even a slight change in his expression.Ziglar assumed Xayne was not familiar with assassin organizations, so he exaggerated further. "Assassin organizations are nothing like street gangs. We're worlds apart. Street fights are child's play compared to us. Ozark and I are top-tier assassins in Deathly Stingers, which ranks among

    "Flame King! That guy said it earlier. The mastermind is the Flame King!"Beside them, Serena suddenly interjected, pointing to the now-lifeless body of Ozark.'Flame King?!'Hearing that name, Xayne frowned deeply, and rage erupted in his chest."Him again, damn it!"Flames of fury ignited in Xayne's eyes.Ziglar immediately felt the wave of murderous intent pouring off Xayne, as overwhelming as a flood. The killing intent was like a demon, making him feel like he was in hell.Xayne sneered, "Flame King, I haven't even gone after you yet, and you strike first!"Since the enemy had made a move, there was no need for Xayne to hold back anymore. He would do everything to protect Serena.Even if it meant going up against an entire assassin organization, so be it.The fierce determination in Xayne's eyes grew stronger, and it was terrifying to behold.He crossed his arms and spoke coldly, "Deadly Stingers, I don't think your organization needs to exist anymore. Since you dared t

    On the other end of the line, Draven, located in Drakonia, had just stepped out of a mansion. Behind him, flames roared, and explosions rang out.The entire mansion was engulfed in a sea of fire, with countless figures blown skyward by the blasts.Draven, wearing sunglasses and a black trench coat, took a drag on his cigarette and blew out a puff of smoke. He spoke into his phone. "Drakon King, we found it. There's an estate in Seven Dragons Mountain housing Flame King's secret base. But according to the intel, it's heavily guarded."Xayne, gazing at the cityscape of Folksworth, replied, "Got it. Keep monitoring it. In three days, I'm going to Seven Dragons Mountain to take out Flame King!""Yes, Dragon King!" Draven responded, then hopped onto a motorcycle parked at the mansion's entrance. He glanced at the inferno behind him, a wicked smile playing at his lips, before revving the engine and speeding away.After hanging up, Xayne made another call to Ace at the Northern Plains Mi

    Flame King frowned when he heard this, coughing even more violently.The new anti-cancer drug developed by Serena Group was something Flame King had to obtain. His body was being slowly consumed by cancer cells.Although he had been relying on medication and chemotherapy, time was running out for Flame King.The new anti-cancer drug developed by Serena Group reignited his hope for life.That was why he went to such great lengths, arranging for people to infiltrate the Serena Group and steal the research data.However, the plan failed."Yes, the two experts from the Deathly Stingers are dead," the officer reported. "However, fortunately, we had a backup plan. There's a third person. Whether it succeeds depends on the third person now."Upon hearing this, Flame King's eyes gleamed with a cold, fierce light.Serena Group was empty by the time it was around midnight. Due to the day's unexpected events, the company had closed early and the research lab's doors were tightly shut.Se

    The drop was silent.There was actually someone else in the research lab.Dinko and his team had thoroughly checked the place, confirming no one was inside. Yet, the sudden appearance of this figure was baffling.As Dinko and his team were meticulously inspecting each lab, this person silently slipped through the main door. Then, he leaped into the air and spread his limbs to cling firmly to the ceiling, completely unnoticed.After Dinko and his team left, they returned to the security room to rest, confiding they didn't need to recheck. Additionally, someone was monitoring the cameras, ensuring that any movement in the research lab would be seen immediately. They felt assured.However, those in the surveillance room were unaware that their feed had been tampered with. They were watching a static loop of the footage.So, no matter what happened inside the lab, they wouldn't notice a thing.The figure that appeared silently in the lab made no noise as it landed and stealthily mov

    However, he did not expect to miss entirely. Instead, his wrist was caught, immobilizing him completely.Fire Krait's heart skipped a beat. He quickly reached into his jacket, pulled out another knife, and lunged forward again.But just like before, his hand was seized, rendered motionless.From the shadows, Xayne tightened his grip, causing Fire Krait to cry out in agony. Fire Krait's hands went limp, and both knives clattered to the ground, their metallic clinks echoing in the silence."Who are you? What do you want? If you're after the lab data, we can talk." Fire Krait immediately tried to negotiate."You are about to die, and you are still negotiating with me?" Xayne sneered, delivering a swift kick to Fire Krait's head.The kick made Fire Krait's head buzz, and stars danced before his eyes. His assailant was merciless, with no hesitation.Fire Krait's vision went black. He collapsed, clutching his head, feeling utterly drained. He couldn't comprehend how one kick could lea

    Deanana glanced at Xayne as she coyly smiled. "Mr. Xayne, no need to be so reserved with me. After all, I used to be one of your admirers. I always thought you were an extraordinary man."Although it seems I misjudged you, still, you were a part of my girlish dreams. Don't let your current misfortunes bother you too much. People say a fallen phoenix is worse than a chicken, and while that's true, I happen to have a kind heart."Her words, though laced with laughter, were razor-sharp. Each one was a jab meant to cut deep.Her meaning was clear: "You might have been a shining star once, but now, you're nothing in my eyes—not even worth a second glance." Helping Xayne get his luggage was just an act, nothing more."Mr. Xayne, do you remember? Just a few years ago, at this very airport, you were returning from... oh yes, the Seven Nations Summit!"You know, I waited at the airport entrance for over four hours that morning just to get your autograph. But sadly, your security team didn'

    "Heh, Miss Deanana, you also know that's all in the past. Even if he were still the King of the North, we live in peaceful times now. No one gets special privileges, right?" Dean chimed in smoothly, his tone laced with mockery."Dean! Do you even realize what you're doing?!" Aava could not hold back any longer, her eyes glaring fiercely as she clenched her fists in anger."Of course, I know what I'm doing, and I know neither of you are ordinary people. Thinking about hitting me? Don't forget, there are plenty of reporters over there. If you dare lay a hand on me, I'll make sure Xayne's reputation is ruined," Dean replied smugly.Dean's sneer widened into a wicked grin, the confidence radiating from him undeniable."Manager Dean, how about this? To be honest, I used to admire Mr. Xayne. Why don't you do me a favor and return his belongings? It would be a great gesture," Deanana interjected with a gentle smile.Upon hearing this, Aava bristled with fury. She knew Deanana was up to s

    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
