"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" One sentry shouted, only to have his head pierced by a bullet the next second. The soldiers couldn't determine the direction of the shots but knew they were facing a highly skilled sniper or perhaps multiple snipers, given the precision and speed of the shots.

Ordinarily, a sniper needed to recalibrate between shots, causing a delay. However, these shots were rapid and deadly accurate, leaving no time for reaction. Even those who found cover behind trees were shot through, their heads exploding as bullets penetrated the thick wood.

A soldier quickly reported the situation to Glen. "What?! They dare kill my men? What a bold move. Everyone, take your riot shields and charge. I refuse to believe they can withstand our iron will," Glen ordered, slamming the table.

Glen also informed Matt about the situation.

Matt, receiving the report, abruptly stood up. The other commanders looked at him questioningly.

"I'm going to the restroom," he excused himself. On

    Fortunately, the Fran Empire squad leader and the Newcroan patrol leader managed to retain some composure, preventing the argument from escalating further."They're not fighting? I'm impressed by their restrain. Let's add some fuel to the fire and make their relationship even more 'intimate'," Xayne muttered as he observed the scene from a distance. He raised his sniper rifle, aiming at the Fran Empire squad leader.With a gub firing sound, the squad leader collapsed instantly, and panic spread among the soldiers. Fear was evident on their faces."Enemy attack. They've killed our leader. We can't let them go!" The Fran Empire soldiers, now leaderless and desperate, shouted.The Newcroan patrol leader was equally stunned, frozen as the realization hit him. The next moment, his head exploded, and he, too, fell lifeless into a pool of blood.With both leaders down, the already strained relations between the two forces reached a boiling point. The Fran Empire soldiers, equipped with r

    Beastio roared, trying to mediate the situation. However, Matt pointed at Henry and accused, "You conspired with the people from Drakonia to gather our troops here, deliberately weakening our military strength. You are truly despicable."Henry suddenly realized. "No wonder the Silver Snake Squad's surprise attack failed. We fell into your meticulously laid trap. Matt, I understand now. You plan to exhaust our military forces first and then hold us hostage."The analysis from Henry made sense, intensifying the already existing mistrust. Tensions rose higher."We must fight them now. If we don't, they will wipe us out!" Matt's furious shout instantly disintegrated the Eight-Nation Alliance.Half an hour later, gunshots rang out in the conference room. Soon, only Henry and Beastio remained standing while everyone else lay dead in pools of blood.Meanwhile, a fierce battle among the eight armies ensued at the border. Many foreign troops had come only to capture Xayne and were poorly

    The six elders nodded slightly, each in their unique posture, but all wore expressions of solemnity and gravity. Their eyes were filled with a chaotic sharpness.Among them, a slightly taller elder, exuding an aura of authority, looked at the Emperor and asked, "Has the country reached its most critical moment that requires our intervention?"The Emperor replied, "Great Elder, Hanwan has returned.""Hanwan?"Upon hearing this, all six elders frowned, their expressions turning particularly grim.The Great Elder's face darkened significantly as he took a deep breath and said, "Hanwan is a talented individual. Unfortunately, his ambitions are too grand and conflict with the will of the nation. If it weren't for this, I would have considered helping him become the next Emperor."At these words, the other five elders nodded slightly, seemingly in agreement with the Great Elder.However, Hanwan was blinded by his ambition. He had taken a path contrary to the nation's will, betraying b

    The Emperor fell silent for a moment before replying, "Great Elder, I haven't informed the KB Kings Circle yet.""You haven't informed them?"The Great Elder tensed at the news, then relaxed as he seemed to understand something. "Your Majesty, I understand your reasoning. However, the survival of the nation is at stake. The KB Kings Circle must also shoulder the responsibility. If they make excessive demands after the war, I will negotiate with them."Hearing this, the Emperor nodded. "In that case, I will follow the Great Elder's guidance."The Great Elder nodded, then looked up at the sky and asked, "Who is attending the external warriors' meeting this time?""Xayne, the supreme commander of the 300,000-strong Dragonbreakers Legion, has reached the level of a Senior Divine Commander," the Emperor said, his face filled with uncontrollable excitement and pride."Xayne? A Senior Divine Commander? How old is he? Why haven't we heard of him before our seclusion?"The Great Elder'

    The six elders fell silent, their expressions growing grim.The Great Elder frowned and asked, "Xander's grandson? The Xavier family's bloodline?"The Emperor nodded. "Yes."The Great Elder's face darkened, deep in thought. His demeanor and expression had shifted dramatically. After a moment, he sighed, seemingly coming to a realization. "The Xavier family has sacrificed much for our country. Their contributions have also made them a source of fear and apprehension. Because of this, the Xavier family is seen as both a valuable asset and a dangerous threat. They can serve as generals but must never be allowed to become rulers."Your Majesty, don't forget the dark turmoil during the reign of the third Emperor. It all started because of the Xavier family. The supreme genius of the Xavier family endured a baptism of national fortune to counter the thirteen returning warriors from the Four Battlefields. "Ultimately, he failed. His cultivation was destabilized, his blood vessels erup

    Everyone knew deep down that the exceptional genius of the Xavier family had endured the premature baptism of national fortune to protect Drakonia and slay the returning major battlefield warriors. However, this also led to the subsequent dark events, making it a subject too sensitive to discuss openly.The third Emperor had ordered that this event be sealed in Drakonia's secret history. Everyone who participated in that war was given a death order to keep silent, under penalty of death for their entire family if they spoke a word.From that point on, Drakonia reassessed the Xavier family. Their bloodline was deemed uncontrollable. Once out of control, they became like bloodthirsty demons, with crimson eyes and an aura of bloodlust, driven only by the urge to kill. Consequently, members of the Xavier family could serve as generals but were forbidden from becoming rulers or advancing to higher levels of power. They were also prohibited from undergoing the baptism of national fortune

    The generals and top officials of the eleven nations wore mocking expressions as they eyed Xayne standing in the conference room."Well, well, if it isn't the King of Northern Plains, You're quite late. Sorry, but there's no seat for you. How about standing for the meeting instead?"An elderly white man with a thick beard, dressed in a black suit and a bow tie, puffed on a cigar and sneered. He was Orison, one of the five high-ranking officials sent by Newcroa. He worked in the Strategic Homeland division.Other generals and officials from various nations joined in with cold laughter, echoing the disdain."Drakonian don't deserve a seat. They're nothing but pigs!""Ha! General Albert, you're right! Drakonia is just a bunch of uncivilized savages!""In my opinion, the Four Battlefields should refuse to allow any Drakonia talents in the future."Voices from every corner hurled insults at Xayne.At this moment, Xayne's face darkened. He had his hands in his pockets. He was exuding

    It was said that he was a relative of the Queen of the Fran Empire.Immediately, the attendants who had come with the Fran Empire’s general jumped up in anger. They were rushing to check on his injuries while shouting furiously at Xayne, "How dare you assault our prince?! We will sentence you to death!"However, Xayne remained unfazed while glaring coldly at them. "This is just a small lesson. Tell your prince that Drakonia is no longer the weak nation it was a hundred years ago. You have no reason to be arrogant or to judge Drakonia in my presence."He continued, "For five thousand years, except for that one century, every dynasty, every era of Drakonia has not been something people like you could look down upon or covet. Even that century of humiliation is a brief chapter in Drakonia's long history. In the future, Drakonia will rise again and reclaim its place at the pinnacle of the world!"These statements resounded so powerfully that it was shaking the entire conference room.

    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
