Xayne let out a cold laugh and threw a punch that met the Celestial Warrior's fist head-on.The resounding impact shattered the warrior's fist into pieces, accompanied by a loud crack, turning his entire arm into a mist of blood. With one punch, Xayne obliterated the man's arm.The Celestial Warrior stumbled back, clutching his bleeding shoulder, his face horrified. His entire right arm had been reduced to nothing but a cloud of blood.This man was a demon.Xayne's icy gaze swept over the remaining commanders before locking onto the Eternal Commander. "Do you still want to fight?" he asked.In the grand hall of the palace, Kamiru, the King of Ardynasty, and all the high-ranking officials looked on in terror. In the blink of an eye, so many elite warriors had been killed. These were the pillars of Ardynasty.The King of Ardynasty felt his heart break. Kamiru's face was also etched with fear. He had not anticipated that the enemy would be this powerful."Longka! Kill him! You mu
Multiple thuds sounded.The weapons pierced through Longka and his men, tearing through their bodies and splattering blood everywhere.Longka and his men collapsed with loud thuds, falling into pools of their own blood. Many of the fighters had their hearts punctured by their own weapons, dying instantly.At that moment, Longka clutched his chest, blood gushing from his mouth. His eyes were filled with terror as he looked at Xayne, who was striding toward him.'I lost! I completely lost!'He gave a bitter smile, looking at Xayne. "Is this the power and skill of a Divine Commander?!"Xayne looked down at the kneeling Longka and said, "Yes."Longka laughed and said, "Kill me."Xayne looked at him and said, "You died for your country. I respect that."With that, Xayne raised his hand, and a gleaming dagger sliced through Longka's neck.Longka fell into the pool of blood, lifeless. The powerful warrior of Ardynasty became history at Xayne's feet.A cold wind blew across the squa
The King of Ardynasty, in his panic, nodded frantically. "Yes, I know what to do..."Xayne's cold eyes glanced at Kamiru's body on the ground before he turned and left the palace hall of Ardynasty.It was not until Xayne left that King Ardynasty and his high-ranking officials finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were drenched in a cold sweat and felt utterly exhausted, as if they had just faced death itself.However, moments later, the King of Ardynasty's eyes filled with a sinister look as he stared at Kamiru’s corpse. A cold, sinister smile crept across his face."Haha! He's dead! He's finally dead! Ardynasty is mine at last!"The King of Ardynasty laughed heartily, unable to contain his joy. He immediately called out, "Someone! Issue the order to withdraw the troops! Also, announce to the entire nation that General Kamiru, driven by selfish motives, conspired with Westfordia to provoke a war with Drakonia! General Kamiru has been executed! Confiscate his properties and eradi
Elias hesitated for a moment before finally making up his mind. "Commander Xayne, I will work under you and follow your orders. My wife has convinced me. She said that a man should aspire to great things. Since I possess such strength, I should serve the country. "So, I've made my decision. However, I need some time to stay in Southern Shyion to settle the matters with the Lyee family. Once everything is sorted out, I'll come find you."Xayne understood Elias's intentions. "All right."Hearing this, Elias smiled, feeling a weight lifted off his shoulders. He had been worried that Xayne might disagree. It turned out that Amber was right about Xayne being generous, righteous, and wise.After parting ways with Elias, Xayne returned to the hotel.Serena had been worried all night. When she saw Xayne return safely, tears welled up in her eyes as she embraced him. "Honey, you're finally back. I was so worried about you."Any wife would worry about her husband heading off to battle. Se
Since the Bullard family refused to relent, Xayne had no reason to hold back.In the following days, Xayne spent his time with Serena. He diligently picked her up and dropped her off at work every day and made time for sparring practice with her.Serena's aptitude was impressive.She had stabilized at the Legend Warrior level in just over a week. Now, even if she encountered several Grand Master Warriors, she could protect herself."How do you feel about me?" Serena asked, breathing heavily as she looked at Xayne.Xayne gave her a thumbs up. "Excellent. You've progressed faster than anyone I've ever seen."Hearing this, Serena beamed with pride.She kept encouraging herself, determined to become stronger.She wanted to protect Coco and Xayne. If Xayne ever faced trouble or got injured again, she wanted to shield them from harm.After practicing for over an hour, Serena showered and changed into a new outfit. She asked Xayne, "Honey, there's a business gala tonight. Would you l
Everyone mingled, glasses clinking, exchanging business tips and insider information.Many had gathered here to learn market trends and set themselves up ahead of the competition.At the side of the venue, Xayne and Serena engaged in polite conversation with those who approached them for a toast.Most of these people knew Serena. She was the hottest name in Folksworth right now. Her net worth had skyrocketed to over 700 million dollars, especially after Serena Group partnered with Dispenza Circle, capturing a whopping eighty percent of Folksworth's pharmaceutical market. Serena deliberately left the remaining twenty per cent to ensure healthy competition and give others a fighting chance.However, standing next to Serena, Xayne was a mystery to many, except for a few local pharma bigwigs. They had heard the rumors that he was Serena's husband. He didn't work and spent his days as a stay-at-home husband, supporting her.Xayne didn't mind the gossip. At this moment, a handsome y
At this moment, Yuri was livid. As the second son of the Tonge family from Kingston, he had been pampered all his life, never having faced humiliation, let alone having red wine thrown in his face. His usual charm and good looks always won over countless admirers eager to please him. Yet, today, Serena had splashed wine all over his face. This was an affront. It was a grace.Yuri's anger boiled over. He was used to humiliating others, never the other way around. The idea that Serena, the CEO of Serena Group in Folksworth, had dared to treat him this way filled him with a burning desire to dominate her. He wanted to make her beg at his feet, to reclaim his sense of power."You bitch. How dare you throw wine at me? Do you even know who I am? I'm Yuri, the second son of the Tonge family from Kingston," Yuri barked, taking the towel offered by a waiter and roughly wiping the wine off his face. His eyes glared at Serena with a menacing look.Serena met his gaze coldly. "I do now. H
This darned woman actually had the audacity to ignore him.'All right, I see how it is,' Yuri thought. A difficult woman like her was exactly his type. The thrill of subduing her would be immensely satisfying.Without warning, Yuri lunged, grabbing for Serena's shoulder to pull her back. However, Serena sensed his move, sidestepped and seized his wrist, twisting it sharply.A loud crack echoed through the venue. Serena had just broken Yuri's wrist."Ahhh!" Yuri screamed in agony, clutching his broken wrist, his face turning crimson as he staggered backward. He glared at Serena with a venomous hatred, shouting, "You bitch! How dare you break my wrist?! I'll kill you! I'll make you kneel and beg for mercy. I'll make you suffer, bitch."The guests surrounding them were left with their mouths agape, eyes wide in shock at what had just transpired. Serena had broken Yuri's wrist. Serena was more ruthless than they had imagined.Xayne, too, was taken aback by Serena's response. He h
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
