Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1688
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

"Plum Blossom Pavilion?" Xayne frowned while looking at the letter. The handwriting was strong, indicating a man wrote it.Without overthinking it, Xayne left the hotel and took a taxi to Plum Blossom Pavilion.Upon arrival, he saw a figure dressed in a black robe sitting inside the pavilion while sipping a cup of tea. As soon as he did, Xayne frowned as he walked over. He sat down instantly and asked, "Why are you here?"The man in the black robe replied calmly, "The Emperor is gravely injured, and Hanwan has reappeared. How could I not come?""Grandpa, what exactly happened between you, the Emperor, and Hanwan? Is it really like what the Emperor and the four elders of the Drakonia council said, that Hanwan betrayed Drakonia?" Xayne asked seriously.He believed the Emperor and the four elders of the Drakonia council, but he felt there were other hidden truths that the Emperor had not shared with him.Xander raised his head, revealing the stern face beneath the wide hood of his b
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1693
Upon hearing this, Xayne frowned as he looked at the tattered scroll in his hand. "I stumbled into this mess by accident?"Xander looked worried as he gazed at the starry sky. "It seems accidental, but someone is pulling the strings behind the scenes. The Xavier family's massacre years ago appeared to be the work of the big four. But as our investigation deepened, the shadow of the KB Kings Circle began to emerge. "We thought we had uncovered the truth. But recently, I revisited the records and re-examined the case. It turns out that while KB Kings Circle orchestrated the event, another force behind them effortlessly caused the Xavier family's downfall!"Xayne was shocked to his core.According to his grandfather, while KB Kings Circle masterminded the massacre, there was an even more formidable force behind them orchestrating everything."Grandpa, what do you mean? Are you saying this force can even control the KB Kings Circle, the oldest kickboxing group in the country?" Xayne
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1694
Soon, they arrived at KB Kings Circle.Xayne and Hammond got out of the car at the foot of the mountain.They looked up at the towering and majestic Mount KB.The peak was covered in a blanket of white, snow-capped all year round.Hammond was standing beside Xayne. He said seriously, "Kid, once we're up there, no matter what happens, don't clash with anyone from KB Kings Circle. This is the top kickboxing group in the entire country! Each one of them is a supreme master! Understood?"Xayne stood with his hands behind his back, nodding calmly. "I know my limits."Right after that, they began their ascent up the stairs.After more than two hours, they reached the summit. They were standing at the grand entrance of KB Kings Circle's main gate.At the gate, KB Kings Circle disciples were on guard. Seeing Hammond's invitation, they pushed open the heavy, ancient stone doors and led the two inside.As the stone doors opened, they were greeted by a vast courtyard.On either side of
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1695
"Hmph! What's so great about the King of the North? It's all just an empty title!"Instantly, the atmosphere became tense. Most of KB Kings Circle's disciples started to surround Xayne and Hammond. They were clearly ready for a fight.Xayne's expression turned icy as he let out a cold laugh. "It seems meeting the leader of KB Kings Circle today won't be so simple.""Hahaha! What a joke! You think you can just see our leader?!"The KB Kings Circle disciple who demanded Xayne perform the three kneels and nine bows laughed disdainfully.Xayne glared at him and then swept his gaze around at the other KB Kings Circle disciples. He coldly declared, "I'll give you one chance to clear the way. Otherwise, don't blame me for what happens next."Upon hearing this, the KB Kings Circle disciples laughed even harder. Their faces were full of mockery."What a joke! Do you think you can take us all on at KB Kings Circle's main hall?""King of the North, do you really think you can fight all of

"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
