After dealing with the thugs, Xayne followed the Supreme Black Dragon back to the command center.

As soon as they arrived, a call came in for the Supreme Black Dragon from the northern region.

"Xayne, something's happened in the Northern Plains!" The Supreme Black Dragon approached Xayne with a grave expression, handing him the phone.

Xayne frowned, taking the phone. "What's the matter?" he asked coldly.

"Commander, our men have encountered trouble. There are casualties," came Ace's voice from the Northern Plains command center, his tone filled with anger and eyes red with fury.

"Damn it! What happened exactly?" Xayne's face was filled with rage. Training a Northern Plains soldier took immense effort. Each one was precious to him. They were not just subordinates but comrades and brothers.

"I don't know all the details, but it seems to be related to the Pavona. Our men were likely killed by them," Ace said, his fists clenched and eyes burning with murderous intent.

"I see. I'm he

    Xayne's expression remained impassive."This is the truth. If what I said does not add up, I am willing to take responsibility," Baxford said firmly."Do any of you have anything else to add?" Xayne nodded, turning to the others."I do. Baxford didn't mention one thing. After they killed our brothers, they spread rumors in the international media, claiming that Drakonia coveted their technology, which led to them shelling us. They twisted the soldiers' deaths, alleging that we were attempting to steal blueprints at night, causing the accidental deaths by shelling." An officer raised his hand, his teeth clenched."And you didn't consider striking back?" Xayne asked."Of course, we did, but someone suggested that we should pay attention to our international image, so we kept the anger in check until now," Baxford growled, his body trembling uncontrollably.It was understandable why Baxford lost his composure. When brothers were gunned down and the perpetrators turned the tables, th

    In the eyes of the 300,000 Northern Plains soldiers present, there was pride—pride in having many brave comrades, pride in having such a wise commander."Commander, what about the higher-ups?" Ace asked cautiously. It was not out of fear, but as one of Northern Plains's Dracoguards, he needed to consider more for Xayne."I've said that if anything happens, I'll take responsibility. Besides, I'm sure nothing will happen. Drakonia will not let us suffer. Relax," Xayne replied."All right." Ace nodded, no longer speaking, but he also hoped to avenge his comrades."Commander, Pavona is once again distorting the facts in the international news. Do you want to take a look?" Baxford asked.Xayne nodded, took it, and read it."According to a Pavona frontline journalist, the Northern Plains army of Drakonia, aware of its guilt, has retreated a hundred kilometers beyond the border, proving that the Drakonia's military has acknowledged its wrongdoing."It is clear that the Drakonia's milit

    "It seems like tens of thousands of them are pressing forward. Are they crazy?" Minte exclaimed, his face full of shock."Don't worry. Even if they have numbers, as long as our men engage in battle, we can eradicate them," Saxi shouted confidently."That's true," Minte replied, calmly pulling the alarm.The alarm sounded instantly. In Drakonia, soldiers would have gathered within a minute at the sound of this emergency signal.However, three minutes had passed, and the Pavona soldiers still hadn’t fully emerged from their barracks. Those who did come out were drowsy, disoriented, and disheveled. Some even came out shirtless and without their weapons.Northern Plains Army's tank units paid no heed to whether Pavona was ready, launching a fierce bombardment.In an instant, the sky was ablaze, and the ground shook violently.Pavona’s camp was clustered in one place, so the Northern Plains soldiers did not need to aim. They just fired in one direction.It wasn’t until shells explod

    The once-proud fortifications of the Pavona were effortlessly crushed by the advancing Northern Plains Army's armored vehicles, leaving them in ruins. The Pavona soldiers were in complete disarray. Their worldview had been shattered by the sheer force and dominance of the Northern Plains Army, and they had completely lost the will to fight.In the face of such overwhelming power, Xayne's strategy was straightforward and effective. He could have devised a thousand different attack plans, but this relentless, brute-force approach was the most direct and deadly.As the Northern Plains Army's tanks crushed through the fortifications, the psychological defenses of the Pavona soldiers crumbled just as easily. Watching their defenses being systematically destroyed in the dead of night, they lost all courage to fight against the thousands of Northern Plains soldiers led by Xayne.Many Pavona soldiers began to retreat in panic, heading toward the command center, their last line of defens

    Xayne listened attentively as the Pavona soldier confessed, trembling with fear."We deliberately conducted military exercises near the border to provoke you. Those artillery shells were fired on purpose," the soldier said, his voice shaking. "Then, we pretended to invite your envoys for negotiations under the guise of an apology, but we had already planned to assassinate them.""Very well. Now, two final questions. Who ordered this, and who fired the shots at the envoys?" Xayne asked."It was the commander. He gave all the orders and pulled the trigger," the soldier answered."Hand over your commander," Xayne demanded.The soldier turned to his comrades, who exchanged uncertain glances."When I reported to the commander earlier, I saw him packing his things to escape," the reporting soldier added.With a cold snort, Xayne leaped to the highest point of the command center, scanning the area. Sure enough, he spotted a jeep speeding away two kilometers to the east.In a flash,

    With that, Xayne left the airport.Lexter's invitation was set for a week later.Although Xayne didn't understand the delay, he quickly realized Lexter was likely preparing something secretly.Therefore, Xayne wasn’t in a rush. He decided to use the time to give Healers Valley a choice.If Lexter didn't back down in time, Xayne wouldn't mind ensuring that he stayed in Folksworth permanently.When Xayne returned to the villa, he hugged Coco, lovingly playing with her.He missed his daughter dearly, even after just one day apart.Xayne simply wished to spend as much time as possible with Coco during her childhood.That evening, when Serena came back, she was not very happy."What's wrong? You don't look well."Xayne walked over to Serena, lying on the sofa, and asked with concern while gently massaging her back.Serena closed her eyes, letting out a comfortable sigh. "The company has been too busy lately. Our new product is facing some issues. We don’t have enough sales channel

    Serena was deep in thought but couldn't come up with a good solution.For the past few days, she had been running around to various sales channels for the new drug, but the responses were always vague and noncommittal.Just then, Serena glanced at her phone and suddenly spotted a news article."The Hwark family from West Dangria plans to open a pharmaceutical branch in Folksworth?"Serena immediately grasped the significance.The Hwark family's branch was already seeking partners in the Folksworth area. She wondered which company would be lucky enough to catch the Hwark family's eye.The Hwark family was a name she wouldn't have known in the past, but now, being immersed in the business world, she was well aware of this giant.The Hwark family wielded immense influence across the central and western regions of Drakonia, with business interests spanning multiple sectors, which include pharmaceuticals, technology, healthcare, real estate, entertainment, and more.Serena Group's an

    Meanwhile, a mid-sized villa stood in the affluent district of Folksworth. The villa boasted various luxurious features, including a garden, artificial hills, and a fountain, giving it an upscale feel.A few days ago, Barty purchased this villa as his residence. The ease with which he bought this mid-sized villa spoke volumes about the Hwark family's immense wealth."Mr. Barty, she's in the car now," said a man wearing glasses."Got it. You can go now."A middle-aged man with a corpulent figure lounged in an executive chair, his body causing the chair to creak under the weight.This was Barty, the general manager of the Hwark family's Folksworth branch and a senior member of the Hwark family.Sitting opposite him was a man in his thirties, reading through some documents. His name was Ansel Hwark, and he was also a senior member of the Hwark family and the second-in-command at the branch."She's here and she came alone," Barty said."With our strength, it's only a matter of time

    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

    "In the end, his ambitions were never realized. When he attempted to merge all five Dragon's Hearts, he died. After his death, the Dragon's Hearts vanished without a trace. That's why the Light Order has always kept a close eye on Drakonia, especially on the methods Commander Zedd used to track down those Dragon's Hearts," Joe explained.Hearing this, Xayne was utterly stunned. He had never imagined that over a century ago, Commander Zedd had possessed five Dragon's Hearts. That would have been a time when Drakon Destiny was on the rise. However, because of the failed fusion, Commander Zedd lost not only his life but also Drakon Destiny's, which declined, leading to the humiliations and defeats that followed over the next century."So you're saying the Dragon's Hearts are tied to the fate of a nation?" Xayne asked, his shock evident."Absolutely. Based on our research, there's no doubt about it. The fate of Drakonia is linked to the Dragon's Hearts. Every time someone successfully f

    In the VIP lounge of the airport, Xayne and Aava were waiting for their flight. Not long after, a tall, broad-shouldered young man strode in. He scanned the room briefly before his eyes locked onto Xayne and Aava. Without hesitation, he walked straight toward them. "Mr. Xayne, I'm sorry for the wait. I was sent here by Yves."The young man sized up Xayne, his eyes flashing with surprise when he saw that Xayne was completely unharmed. Word had spread about Xayne's clash with Lord of Light, a confrontation that even drew out a Radiant Commander figure, Emin. Yet here Xayne was, perfectly fine. It was hard not to be impressed.As Yves's right-hand man, Joe Zhird knew better than to underestimate someone like Xayne. His respect was evident in his tone and demeanor. With his status as the top lieutenant of Black Ice Platform, even the heads of prominent families would approach him with courtesy. But right now, it was Joe who was showing deference to Xayne, and this caught Aava by surprise
