Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1526
Xayne grinned mischievously, grasping the air with one hand, causing Anastasia to shrink back in fear.Anastasia's breathing had become erratic, terrified that Xayne might make a move."What, are you scared now?"Xayne didn't press further. Instead, he played his game, saying, "When you decided to test me, you should have known there would be consequences. Alone in a room with me, aren't you worried I might do something? Especially when your figure is, to put it mildly, a treasure in any man's eyes. Yet you still did it, which means you have a compelling reason."I can guess two possible reasons. First, I have something incredibly valuable to you. Second, you're working for someone, or someone is controlling you, right?"Anastasia trembled, her breathing quickening, her eyes showing a flash of panic.Xayne had guessed correctly.With everything laid bare, Xayne didn't hold back, a mocking smile on his face. "Of course, there's another possibility. Maybe you think I'm handsome an

Xayne untied the shirt that had bound Anastasia's hands. Since the shirt was completely ruined, he handed her another one and carefully helped her put it on. Of course, during the process, his hands inevitably touched her, sending a ticklish sensation through her body.Anastasia, either too shocked or lost in thought, didn't stop Xayne from his actions, letting him dress her.Afterward, Xayne said nonchalantly, "Go ahead, open the door. Don’t keep Serena waiting."With that, Xayne turned and left. Anastasia stood there in a daze for several seconds. It wasn't until the knocking resumed that she gathered herself and walked to the door.When she opened it, Serena stood there smiling. Seeing Anastasia's flushed face, she couldn't help but ask, "Anastasia, why is your face so red?"Anastasia touched her burning cheeks, her mind replaying the scene in the locker room with Xayne, filling her with resentment."Is it? Maybe it's just too hot in here," she said awkwardly, unsure why she

The banquet was held at the Golden Dragon Hotel, essentially an industry networking event. Besides senior executives from Serena Group, many renowned entrepreneurs from Folksworth and some out-of-town bosses were also invited.Serena and Xayne arrived early and encountered Lionel, the chairman of the Medical Association, at the hotel entrance.He was accompanied by a female companion and he wore a sinister smile. When he saw Serena and Xayne get out of the car, he brazenly approached."How dare you guys show up?"Serena turned her head and saw Lionel's loathsome face. She shot him a cold glance and walked away without a word.Watching her leave, Xayne glanced at Lionel and patted his shoulder. Lionel flinched and looked at him with wary eyes, asking, "What do you want?"Xayne shrugged and warned, "Lionel, I advise you to keep a low profile. You know who I am. My last warning wasn't a joke.""I know you're the King of the North, but the Medical Association isn't a pushover. We ha

It was a mixture of admiration and resentment toward Xayne.As for Waldo, he was still recuperating in the hospital, receiving treatment for his injuries."Mr. Lionel, it's a pleasure to see you," Lexter said gracefully, a smile playing at his lips, neither too genuine nor too fake.At the same time, he took the highball glass handed to him by Lionel. Lexter gently swirled the red wine inside and asked with a smile, "You mentioned someone wanted to meet me tonight. Has that person arrived?""Mr. Lexter, the person you wanted to meet is here. Look." Lionel said with a sneer, pointing toward Xayne and Serena. "That's him. He's the culprit behind the attack on Waldo and the destruction of the Kino Group. His name is Xayne Xavier, also known as the current King of the North."Following Lionel's gesture, Lexter glanced over. The first thing that caught his eye wasn't Xayne but the woman by his side, Serena. She was stunning, as beautiful as a fairy.He had never seen such a captivatin

Lionel had taught her all of this before, and at this moment, he gave her an approving look.Lexter took another sip of red wine and calmly said, "It's the first time I've heard someone threatening Healer's Valley. How interesting."Lionel looked nervously at Lexter. His purpose tonight was simple, which was to bring up the issue of the Healers Valley and put pressure on the arrogant Xayne.Moreover, he could tell that Lexter might have taken a liking to Serena. The look just now had made it clear."Mr. Lexter, should we go over there now?" Lionel asked in a low voice.Lexter swirled the red wine in his glass and strode toward Xayne.He smiled and walked over in a leisurely manner, looking very generous, like a scion of a prominent family.At this moment, he only had Xayne in his eyes.Xayne, of course, noticed Lexter approaching.Most of the people present were elites of the business world, seeing the commotion over here. Many recognized Lexter at a glance, wondering how th

Lexter showed no reaction to Xayne's rejection, as if he had known the other party would refuse.Xayne held his red wine glass and stood silently aside, a faint smile gradually appearing on his face. From his expression alone, one couldn't tell what Xayne was thinking at the moment.However, Serena knew. Xayne was brewing up something, or rather, Lexter was in trouble.Suddenly, applause rang out in the hall. Xayne put down his wine glass and suddenly started clapping.Everyone looked at him, puzzled, not knowing what he was up to."If you want to get to know me, that's fine and easy. I remember last time I said that as long as someone from the Healers Valley appears before me, I will teach them how to behave. Unfortunately, you are the first person to test that statement." Xayne applauded while slowly walking up to Lexter, staring coldly into his eyes, his tone icy. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lexter of the Healers Valley, your words just now didn't sit well with me. I have a bad habit. I

Serena frowned but didn't pay much attention to it.Lexter lay on the ground, feeling like he had been hit by a heavy truck in the abdomen. The pain was overwhelming as if countless men were relentlessly pounding his stomach.Lexter could never have imagined that a single kick from the other party would knock him out.He was the representative of Healers Valley.Tonight's incident was a complete disgrace for the Healers Valley.Lexter knelt on the ground, feeling some relief in his abdomen. His face was dark when he lifted his head as he glared at Xayne with bloodshot eyes. He struggled to get up from the ground.At this moment, Lexter had lost his previous magnanimous demeanor, appearing disheveled and tense, filled with indomitable anger.Lexter wiped the stains from the corner of his mouth. He angrily unbuttoned his suit, throwing it on the ground, pointing at Xayne, and shouting, "Do you know what you just did?!"Lexter's voice was filled with anger, somewhat hoarse, and hi

He seemed unafraid of death.At this moment, the hotel manager hurried over, asking people to take Lexter to the hospital.Standing in the crowd, Lionel was sweating profusely, feeling extremely anxious. Thinking quickly, he quietly slipped out, following the others.It was just a little incident, but its aftermath was quietly brewing.Half an hour later, the atmosphere of the entire banquet gradually calmed down, and the guests began to engage in conversations.During this time, Lionel checked on Lexter several times, learned about his condition, and then returned to the hotel. However, Lexter didn't go to the hospital at all. Instead, he immediately left the hotel, his whereabouts unknown.Perhaps a storm had already begun to brew.Inside the Folksworth Hospital ten minutes later, Lexter was staring at the trembling Waldo kneeling before him as he clutched his chest. Lexter roared, "I want to issue an immediate death order for Xayne. How dare he lay a hand on me?! And he even

"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
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
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
