Hearing this, Tim laughed heartily. "Serena, are you out of your mind? When did I do these things? I don't know what you're talking about. Don't falsely accuse me. I could sue you for defamation."

"You...." Serena was so furious that her chest heaved with anger.

"What illegal profiteering? You make it sound so bad. Let me tell you, Serena, don't be disrespectful. Even if I did use your company’s name, what can you do about it? I've already put the word out. If there's trouble, they'll come after you, not me," Tim said nonchalantly. He had tampered with the contracts so that they couldn't be traced back to him.

"Tim, I'll ask you one last time. Are you sure you won't return the money?" Serena demanded, her voice shaking with rage.

"I won't. As a member of the Swift family, you share responsibility for the company. Now that I'm making Swift Group thrive again, you should be thanking me," Tim said smugly.

"What nonsense. Are you thriving on your own merits? You’re just illegally usin

    Hearing this, Serena asked, "What are you planning to do?"Xayne looked at Serena seriously and asked, "Do you want to take back Swift Group?"Serena was stunned. Swift Group was her grandfather's life's work. However, with her grandfather gone and his past cruelty still fresh in her mind, she felt conflicted. Still, the idea of reclaiming Swift Group appealed to her."Yes." Serena nodded."Then, it's settled. I'll handle this. You just stay here and wait for my good news," Xayne said before leaving the company.As he exited the building, Xayne called Ritchie. "Bring some men and lock down Folksworth Airport. Bring those two back to me.""Yes, sir," Ritchie replied respectfully.He quickly assembled a hundred soldiers, fully armed, and headed straight to the airport.At the airport, Tim and Sophia were just about to board their flight when over a hundred armed soldiers stormed in, surrounding them.Tim raised his hands in fear, his face pale with terror. "What are you doing?"

    "Ah! My head! It's going to explode!" Tim cried out in agony.At that moment, he felt as if his head was being crushed.The excruciating pain made his entire body tremble."Are you going to agree or not?" Xayne coldly demanded, his eyes flashing with a chilling light."Yes. Please, just lift your foot. It feels like my head is going to explode," Tim pleaded through his pain.He did not expect that Xayne could be so ruthless.Xayne snorted disdainfully as he lifted his foot and looked down at Tim, who was lying on the floor. "Number two, that 70 million will be considered as Serena buying out all the shares of Swift Group. Starting today, Swift Group is no longer yours, Tim. It belongs to Serena.""What?!" Hearing this, Tim scrambled up from the ground, his face filled with rage as he shouted at Xayne. "What did you say?! Buying out the Swift Group? Are you trying to force me out? Xayne, you must be dreaming. I will never agree to this!""Is that so?" Xayne's voice was icy.W

    After everything was settled, Xayne returned to Serena Group and told Serena about the events without any concealment.She had the right to know.After hearing Xayne's account, Serena was silent for a moment before saying, "Thank you, my love."Xayne replied with a faint smile, "No need to thank me. From now on, the Swift Group is yours. Tim and his family won't dare to show their faces in Venzor or Folksworth anymore."Serena nodded and sighed.Although Xayne's methods were ruthless, they were perhaps the best way to solve the problem.Meanwhile, Tim and Sophia left Folksworth in a disheveled state. Once they returned to Venzor, they began packing up their belongings, preparing to leave both the Swift family and Venzor.A group of armed soldiers were waiting right outside their door.When Tim saw the soldiers, he fell to his knees and shouted, "Xayne, are you trying to exterminate us completely?!""Get in the car," the soldiers coldly ordered, pushing Tim and his family into t

    Hearing this, Xayne inhaled sharply.Two hundred thousand suicide squad called the Drakon Slayer Legion are infiltrating various military theaters.Each piece of information was enough to shake Drakonia to its core.If Hanwan was able to recruit such a massive force, he should not be underestimated."What else?" Xayne asked.Dragos replied, "Additionally, while we were investigating information about Hanwan, we encountered some resistance. Interestingly, this resistance vanished quickly after which we obtained the current information we have. Drakon King, I suspect someone might be guiding us in investigating Hanwan."Xayne frowned and pondered for a moment, hands clasped behind his back."Is this force friend or foe?" Xayne asked.Dragos's face grew serious as he shook his head. "We haven't been able to determine that yet. This force is very covert and strange. No matter how we investigate, we can't find any trace. Drakon King, could it be that someone else wants to target Han

    On the other end of the line, Black Dragon, who was at the South Canyon Military Theater Combat Operations Headquarters, answered Xayne's call with a chuckle. "Commander Xayne, what's the rush? What's up?"Xayne replied calmly, "Leavekon Villa in Westsand is under your jurisdiction, right?"Black Dragon frowned and quickly checked the location on his map. "Yes, it's within my jurisdiction. But Westsand is near the coast and separated from Baicilly by a sea. It's also a border area. Why are you asking about this all of a sudden?"Xayne's expression grew serious. "You should have heard about Hanwan."Upon hearing Hanwan's name, Black Dragon's expression turned grave, and his eyes filled with concern. "I've heard about him. What's going on?""Hanwan just called me and invited me to meet him at Leavekon Villa in Westsand.""Hanwan contacted you?" Black Dragon's heart skipped a beat. Hanwan was a legendary figure from the previous Emperor's era."What are you planning to do?" Black D

    A luxury sedan pulled up to the entrance, and Xayne stepped out. He looked up at the opulent Leavekon Villa, a glint of determination in his eyes.He walked forward and entered the grand banquet hall of Leavekon Villa.Inside, glasses clinked, and conversations buzzed among Westsand's rich and powerful figures. Military officers in uniform also mingled, their faces adorned with smiles.Upon seeing the scene, Xayne's heart sank.Hanwan shouldn't have been present at such a high-profile event. Drakonia was under a strict news blackout regarding him, and hosting such a large-scale event seemed out of place.Soon, the owner of Leavekon Villa took the stage to deliver a speech. Xayne realized that the villa had organized the evening as a charity fundraiser. Though labeled as charitable, it was clear to everyone present that this was more than just a simple donation event.'Looks like Hanwan is pulling the strings behind the scenes,' Xayne thought to himself.At that moment, two bodyg

    Hearing this question, Xayne frowned, unsure of Hanwan's intentions. However, after a moment's thought, he replied, "A traitor to the country and the emperor."Hanwan chuckled deeply. "A traitor to the country and the emperor. So, in the eyes of the world, I am seen as a great villain."Xayne sensed a deeper meaning in Hanwan's words, as if the world misunderstood him entirely."The things you’ve done are facts, even if they're mislabeled as betrayal," Xayne said coldly.Hanwan nodded, seemingly indifferent to the accusation. "Yes, I did betray Drakonia and the current emperor. But do you know why, Commander Xayne?"Xayne raised an eyebrow. "Isn't it because of your ambition?""Ambition?" Hanwan’s eyes grew profound. "Without ambition, how could I have become Hanwan of the Drakonia? How could I have assisted the current emperor in solidifying his throne?"Xayne fell silent.Hanwan continued, "The Drakonia needs a powerful general to intimidate other nations, not soft diplomacy.

    Suddenly, Hanwan's fury erupted. He crushed the teacup in his hand, stood up, and walked to the window. He faced away from Xayne as he spoke in an icy tone, "Tonight, I've arranged for five thousand of my Drakon Slayer Legion's suicide warriors inside the Leavekon Villa. Do you think you can leave here alive?"Hearing this, Xayne stood up calmly and replied with a faint smile, "Are you ripping off your mask now?"Hanwan turned around with a cold smile on his lips. "After all, if I want to return to Drakonia, you and your 300,000 Dragonbreakers Legion will be my biggest obstacle. Therefore, it's only reasonable to eliminate you here tonight."Xayne nodded, his hands behind his back, and smiled indifferently. "You are right. However, I came prepared. Outside Leavekon Villa, I have stationed ten thousand of the South Canyon's Black Dragon Army, all fully armed. If any unusual situation arises inside the villa, these ten thousand Black Dragon soldiers will cover the entire villa with fi

    Deanana glanced at Xayne as she coyly smiled. "Mr. Xayne, no need to be so reserved with me. After all, I used to be one of your admirers. I always thought you were an extraordinary man."Although it seems I misjudged you, still, you were a part of my girlish dreams. Don't let your current misfortunes bother you too much. People say a fallen phoenix is worse than a chicken, and while that's true, I happen to have a kind heart."Her words, though laced with laughter, were razor-sharp. Each one was a jab meant to cut deep.Her meaning was clear: "You might have been a shining star once, but now, you're nothing in my eyes—not even worth a second glance." Helping Xayne get his luggage was just an act, nothing more."Mr. Xayne, do you remember? Just a few years ago, at this very airport, you were returning from... oh yes, the Seven Nations Summit!"You know, I waited at the airport entrance for over four hours that morning just to get your autograph. But sadly, your security team didn'

    "Heh, Miss Deanana, you also know that's all in the past. Even if he were still the King of the North, we live in peaceful times now. No one gets special privileges, right?" Dean chimed in smoothly, his tone laced with mockery."Dean! Do you even realize what you're doing?!" Aava could not hold back any longer, her eyes glaring fiercely as she clenched her fists in anger."Of course, I know what I'm doing, and I know neither of you are ordinary people. Thinking about hitting me? Don't forget, there are plenty of reporters over there. If you dare lay a hand on me, I'll make sure Xayne's reputation is ruined," Dean replied smugly.Dean's sneer widened into a wicked grin, the confidence radiating from him undeniable."Manager Dean, how about this? To be honest, I used to admire Mr. Xayne. Why don't you do me a favor and return his belongings? It would be a great gesture," Deanana interjected with a gentle smile.Upon hearing this, Aava bristled with fury. She knew Deanana was up to s

    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
