Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1589
Bren deliberately brought up the previous war to elicit sympathy from the Western countries. As he participated in the negotiations, he already had confidence that the scales of victory would tip in his favor. He had thoroughly gathered evidence of Pavona's plans to invade Drakonia, making it impossible for anyone to side with Locke in the face of such evidence. Even Locke felt uneasy seeing all the evidence laid out against him.However, both Bren and Locke were astonished when the jury of judges unanimously sided with Pavona."Even though it was the other side's plan, the Northern Plains Army also invaded Pavona's territory and killed high-ranking officials. This is an undeniable fact," one of the judges stated."If you had convened this joint meeting immediately upon being persecuted, maybe we would have supported you. But now that you've drawn your sword against the other side, you are both victims and instigators of war. We can no longer support you," another judge added.

"King of the North?"The meeting room fell into an instant silence.Everyone present was stunned.The King of the North from Drakonia had appeared in the meeting room.He was the protector of the Northern Plains. He was the most elite soldier, Drakonia's strongest Supreme Commander, undefeated on battlefields for five years. He was a figure that inspired despair.Countless titles converged upon that young and tall figure.When Xayne stepped forward, everyone held their breath, not daring to even exhale."Both sides invaded each other's territories, and lives were lost on both sides. Yet, you believe we should compensate?" Xayne's eyes blazed with fury and coldness as he questioned the presiding judge.The judge couldn't meet Xayne's gaze and slumped in his seat, his forehead covered in cold sweat."Does this mean that the Northern Plains Army could launch a missile at your place, invade your territory, kill your people, and as long as my losses are greater than yours, you woul

Bren felt like he had lost all strength in his body, slumping into his seat.He hadn't expected that even calling Xayne wouldn't be able to reverse the situation. These people were determined to support Pavona and suppress Drakonia.Just as Bren felt extreme indignation, he saw Xayne still smiling."What are you smiling at? Is it so amusing to pay compensation to the other party?" Bren couldn't help but feel a surge of anger seeing Xayne laughing."No, I'm laughing at their arrogance. I'm laughing at their lack of understanding. I'm laughing at their hypocrisy." Xayne's voice was resolute."They talk about rules and principles, but they're manipulating them. Since they want to resolve this matter in an international conference, then let's resolve it their way." Xayne decisively stated."What do you mean?" Bren looked puzzled."You'll find out tomorrow," Xayne said, deliberately being mysterious.The next morning, just as Locke was preparing to return to Pavona, he suddenly rece

On the sidelines, Locke erupted in a frenzy of curses. "Three billion? Why don't you just rob us? We absolutely cannot agree to his demands. Judge, demand immediately that he return all the prisoners and compensate our country for its losses."The presiding judge glanced at Locke and then at Xayne, turning to discuss with the other jurors.In less than half an hour, they reached a conclusion."According to our rules, indeed you can ransom the prisoners of war with money. If you cannot afford three billion, then these prisoners will be left to the disposal of the Northern Plains Army of Drakonia."In the end, under the pressure brought by Xayne, the presiding judge chose to comply with Xayne's arrangement."What's going on? What kind of judge are you? Is there still any justice or law here? How can we possibly compensate three billion?" Locke shouted angrily at the presiding judge.Pavona was already so impoverished, scraping by with every resource available just to sustain their

Xayne single-handedly changed the course of an international conference. He was truly worthy of the title of the formidable King of the North."I merely wanted to contribute a little effort for Drakonia. Besides, this is also to avenge my six fallen brothers," Xayne said, his gaze flashing with cold determination."Strength, power, responsibility, courage, you possess them all. Do you know that you already have all the necessary qualities?" Bren asked."To become what? A legendary commander?" Xayne replied."No. To become my son-in-law." Bren chuckled."Mr. Bren, you're joking. I'm already married. Let's talk about something else," Xayne replied, feeling a bit speechless."Hahaha, you were just the invincible King of the North a moment ago. Why are you reacting like this now? Don't worry, I was just teasing you." Bren laughed.In truth, he did wish Xayne could become his son-in-law."I should quickly inform my subordinates of the good news." Xayne immediately pulled out his pho

Bren nodded emphatically, deeply agreeing. If a military unit lacked trust among its members and if the soldiers were unable to confidently trust their comrades with their backs, they couldn't utilize much of their true strength."All right, everything's over now. Let's head back," Bren said.Meanwhile, in a villa, several people dressed in suits sat together, hailing from different countries. If Xayne and Bren were present, they would recognize Locke and the judge among them."Judge, what exactly is going on? Before the conference, we agreed that you would help us secure the compensation. How come, later on, you sided with those damn Drakonians?" Locke said discontentedly."Don't you have any brains? Haven't you heard of Xayne's reputation? He's the King of the North of Drakonia and a demon to other countries. If you provoke him, he'll come at you like a mad dog," the judge said with a grim expression."So, what should we do? Are we just going to accept this loss passively? I can

"This is outrageous. What should we do?" Bren asked. Despite his wealth of diplomatic skills, was momentarily at a loss when faced with such a situation."No worries, you stay here. I'll go handle them," Xayne said, his senses fully alert. From behind a haystack, he had caught sight of the assailants.Silently sneaking up on the sniper, Xayne swiftly snapped his neck. The sniper couldn't fathom how Xayne had uncovered his disguise and stealthily approached from behind.After dispatching the sniper, other assailants noticed him and immediately opened fire with their machine guns."You're courting death," Xayne growled, effortlessly deflecting bullets with a knife he had picked up, slicing through them in mid-air.Brandishing the knife, Xayne boldly advanced toward the assassins."What's going on? How can he block bullets with his bare hands?" one of the assassins exclaimed in horror."The target is too tough, retreat!'' The leader of the assassins realized they couldn't handle Xa

Iyas was the head of the Bullard family. 'What is he doing in Folksworth?!' On top of that, he had given a letter to Serena. That meant that while Xayne was away, someone as powerful as Iyas, nearly at the rising Divine Commander, had approached Serena.Xayne's face tensed, his body trembled slightly, and he felt a wave of tension and fear. If Iyas, with his rising Divine Commander strength, wanted to harm Serena, not even Draven or her bodyguards could stand a chance. If Iyas intended to use Serena to threaten him, the consequences could be dire.Taking a deep breath, Xayne pocketed the letter, forcing a pained smile onto his face."Honey, what's wrong? You look upset... Is it just that you’re exhausted from these past few days?" Serena had noticed the change in Xayne's expression and asked with concern.Xayne smiled, shaking his head. "Nothing. Go keep Coco company."Serena nodded and turned to leave.Xayne stood on the villa's lawn, gazing up at the starry sky with an inte

"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

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
