As this thought leapt into Piel's mind, he was completely dumbfounded. The Drakon King of Dracarium was an existence surpassing the Dracoguards. It was a supreme, even headache-inducing existence for the Twelve Temples of Westfordia. Despite not being part of the Twelve Temples of Westfordia, the Council recognized Dracarium as the Thirteenth Temple. Its Drakon King was the most mysterious figure.Throughout Westfordia, it was known that the Drakon King was immensely powerful and not to be trifled with.However, no one knew exactly how powerful he truly was.Even the Dracolords of the Twelve Temples dared not provoke Drakon King easily.Now, Drakon King stood right before him. Piel's shock was normal. This was someone as invincible as Hades or Zeus. If he wanted to kill him or wipe out his branch, it would be as easy as lifting a finger.In an instant, Piel knelt on the ground, completely prostrating himself, ignoring the blood flowing from his hand pinned to the coffee table.
"Drakon King," they respectfully called out.Xayne nodded and stepped into the base. He turned to his military advisor. "Are there any casualties?"The military advisor grinned. "Drakon King, don't worry. Dealing with these small fries is a piece of cake."Xayne nodded again and entered the command room to discuss the next steps with Dragos and the military advisor.Meanwhile, a grand and majestic white castle stood on a cliff overlooking the western coastline in a luxurious mansion somewhere in Woaling. Nearby, dense forests added to the scenery.Inside the castle's hall was a man clad in a black silk robe. He was exceptionally muscular with a tan-comp middle-aged man. He looked like a typical Westfordian, with short, neat hair and sharp, deep-set eyes radiating coldness. His high nose resembled a hawk's beak.Holding a whiskey bottle, he sat on a stone throne encrusted with countless gems and diamonds.Below, dozens of men and women of various ages and expressions waited silen
"The Emperor is gravely injured!? How did this happen? Who hurt the Emperor?!"Upon hearing this, Xayne was equally shocked.'Drakonix!''The Emperor's Pavilion!'This was the Emperor's Pavilion in Drakonnix. It was the most important place in the entire Drakonia, guarded by the nation's best.Drake, the Dracoknights, and numerous other top warriors always protected the Emperor. Xayne didn't understand who could possibly harm the Emperor.On the other end of the call, Hammond was also anxious. "We don't know the details. The Emperor said he must see you. There are things only you know. You must come to Drakonix immediately! "Additionally, 300,000 Northern Plains troops are to be secretly redeployed to guard the four gates of Drakonix starting today. This situation is sudden and very strange! It could be a targeted attack by a powerful force against our Drakonia!"Xayne! A great war is upon us! The winds of conflict are stirring in the Drakonia!"After saying this, Hammond's
Two of the assassins were instantly pierced through the chest and abdomen by flying daggers, collapsing into pools of blood. The man in the trench coat quickly pinpointed where the daggers had come from and roared, "Chase him!"Immediately, the group charged into the dense forest.Meanwhile, Xayne had hidden the bloodied pilot in a nearby thicket. "Hang in there, I'll get help," he assured before disappearing into the forest.The assassins were hot on his trail, their footsteps echoing through the woods.Gunshots rang out, sending birds flying in all directions.The group soon slowed, huddling with tense expressions, scanning the surroundings.Xayne had vanished from right under their noses.The man in the trench coat cursed, quickly pulling out a satellite phone. "Boss, the mission failed," he reported coldly.On the other end, a calm voice responded, "I understand. Ask your men to retreat."The call ended abruptly. The trench coat man pocketed the phone, signaling his team t
Soon, Xayne saw the four elders of the Drakonia council, who had been guarding the Emperor's Pavillion.Hammond's face was tense and anxious. When he saw Xayne walk in, he quickly stood up and asked, "Did something happen?"Xayne replied calmly, "We encountered a group of foreign mercenaries."Upon hearing this, Hammond frowned and asked, "Are they all dead? Did you find out who's behind it?"Xayne responded, "We're looking into it. Where's the Emperor?"Hammond hurriedly said, "Inside. Haqin is treating his injuries."‘Haqin?’After hearing this name, Xayne frowned and silently sat beside Hammond while waiting.During this time, Drake also rushed back in, looking anxious. He cast a cold glance at Xayne, then walked straight into the inner sanctum of the Emperor's Pavillion.Xayne slightly frowned and whispered, "Was Drake not there when the Emperor was attacked?"Hammond's expression darkened. He shook his head and said, "We don't know the specifics. We just received the not
Xayne bowed, acknowledged with a "Yes," and stepped up to the curtain.The old man with graying hair carefully examined Xayne and then said to the Emperor behind the curtain, "Emperor, I'll leave now."The Emperor nodded.Haqin turned and silently left the inner sanctum without saying a word to Xayne.After Haqin left, the Emperor motioned for Xayne to sit down. Then, he spoke, "That was Haqin."Xayne responded with a frown, "Master Hammond mentioned him."The Emperor continued, "I've already spoken to Haqin about your issues with Healers Valley. They will not hold you accountable or trouble you anymore."Hearing this, Xayne said, "Thank you, Emperor."The Emperor smiled faintly, then stood up and walked out from behind the curtain.Xayne quickly stepped forward to help the Emperor to the sofa."Do you know who hurt me?" the Emperor asked.Xayne frowned and shook his head, "No, Emperor. This place is heavily guarded, and you have many powerful protectors, including Drake. I
"Tri-Divine Commander?!"Xayne trembled slightly, his expression becoming more serious and grave. Hanwan's strength was indeed formidable."Your Majesty, what do you plan to do?" Xayne asked.The Emperor remained silent, coughing a few times before saying, "Hanwan's strength is unfathomable. Tri-Divine Commander is just my initial assessment. I am not certain of his exact power. Additionally, Hanwan has numerous and scattered forces worldwide. If he were to unite them one day, it would be a devastating blow to Drakonia!"So, I intend to use Dracarium to investigate Hanwan's forces and bases around the world. If possible, we will dismantle them one by one."Hearing this, Xayne remained silent. Using Dracarium to counter Hanwan's global forces was not impossible. However, provoking a supreme power like a Tri-Divine Commander could bring unpredictable and catastrophic consequences to Dracarium.Seeing Xayne's silence, the Emperor took a deep breath and said, "I understand this tas
Xayne shook his head and said, "Let's discuss it when we get back."Then he bid farewell to Supreme Black Dragon and Rhaega, and headed towards the Drakonian council.The four elders of the Drakonia council looked at Xayne seriously and asked, "What's going on? Who hurt the Emperor?""Hanwan," Xayne replied.Upon hearing this name, the four elders of the Drakonia council were all shocked. Their eyes widened in disbelief."How can it be him?!"Warren was surprised, eyes full of sharpness.Hammond also gasped, saying, "I can't believe Hanwan is still alive!"Seeing the four elders of the Drakonia council's shocked expressions, Xayne realized that Hanwan's reputation must have been formidable.However, he had never heard anyone mention Hanwan over the years."Elders, what exactly did Hanwan do back then?" Xayne asked.Warren remained silent, his hands behind his back. He looked at the map of Drakonia. "Hanwan was an invincible general during the reign of the fourth Emperor, o
