He was friendly with everyone, especially the young women who flocked around him.

However, if they tried to take things further, he always politely declined.

At that moment, a woman in a black, skin-tight workout outfit was stretching on a yoga ball nearby. She had neatly cropped shoulder-length hair, a sharp, slender face, and striking features. Her eyes, though calm, held a certain intensity as if a hidden spark was waiting to ignite.

The most curious thing about her, however, was the knife strapped to her waist.

Next to her stood a man in a black tank top. His body rippled with lean muscles. He stood there like a towering pine tree, arms crossed with a cold expression and unapproachable. The air around him felt sharp, like the edge of a drawn blade.

His face seemed to scream, "Stay away."

"Ivo, the old man sent Faye to Folksworth?" The man with chiseled features and a piercing gaze finished his pull-ups. He then jumped down and grabbed a towel to wipe his hands, a smile playi

    After leaving Faye, Xayne headed straight to Serena Pharmaceutical Group's office.He walked into Serena's office and found her on the phone. She looked troubled."What's wrong, babe? What happened?" Xayne asked.Serena hung up the phone, thought for a moment, and said, "Honey, my mom just called. She said my uncle is having some trouble with his business and is hoping we can help.""Your uncle? Vernon?" Xayne frowned.He had heard about Vernon before when they were still in Venzor. The guy was greedy —nothing else mattered."Yeah, my mom said my uncle's company is running into some issues in Baxford. They're in the pharmaceutical business, too, and he's asking for our help," Serena said, hesitation written all over her face.It was not that she didn't want to help, but she could not forget how Vernon had treated them in the past. Back when Serena was raising Coco on her own, Vernon and his family had looked down on her. They had humiliated her more times than she could count.

    "Where there's competition, there's conflict. That's normal," Xayne said calmly."Normal competition doesn't scare me, but these bastards aren't playing by the rules," Vernon replied as his anger rose. "Three months ago, they came to me with an offer, asking me to join their business team.""You refused," Xayne guessed."Of course I refused! Even an idiot could see they wanted to use my reputation to boost their own profits. They might even have plans to take over my company," Vernon snarled, his face flushed with anger."After I turned them down, they started harassing me. They demanded protection money, sent fake buyers to trash my products, and even hired thugs to wreck my business," Vernon continued while clenching his fists. "I put up with it because, well, when you're away from home, sometimes you have to eat dirt. But a month ago, when they saw I wouldn't give in, they started targeting my daughter. She's still in college, and they hired people to harass her on campus, eve

    A sudden bang sound rang."Agh!" The middle-aged woman clutched her bleeding head as she collapsed to the ground. Her body trembled uncontrollably."Hmph, know your place. I told you not to mess with Boss Fang and his crew. Now you see the result? Not only are your company’s employees beaten and lying on the ground, but now you and your daughter are going to get what's coming. Where’s your husband? Is he hiding like a coward?" Maison sneered."Mom, are you okay?" Angel cried. She rushed to her mother’s side and tried to stop the bleeding with some tissues."Heh, this little girl isn’t bad-looking at all. How about this? You spend a night with me, and I’ll let these last few machines off the hook," Maison leered with his eyes lingering on Angel, a desire he had harbored for some time."Get lost! I’ve already called the police. You’re all going to jail!" Angel shouted with an angry tone."No problem. But before that happens, why don’t I have a little fun first?" Maison’s words seem

    Although Xayne had already taken care of the thugs outside, Maison’s group was supposed to be the elite, and he figured there was no way they could lose to Xayne. As he regained his confidence, he shouted, "All of you, get him! Defeat this guy first, then tie up Vernon. I want him to watch as we pin down his wife and daughter!"At Maison’s command, the thugs immediately released Angel and her mother. They then grabbed iron rods from the floor as they charged at Xayne.Xayne did not hesitate. With a single punch, he sent the first thug flying. With a swift kick, he launched another assailant into the air. The two men landed several feet away, crashing to the ground as they coughed up blood.The sight of their fallen comrades stunned Maison and the others. They had not expected Xayne to be so terrifying. He was able to kill them with just casual blows."You can all come at me together," Xayne said as his eyes scanned the remaining men. None dared to step forward, fearing they would e

    Maison was trembling and did not dare disobey Xayne's command. He immediately picked up his phone, found Corvus’s number from Flying Crows Corporation, and dialed it."Hello? Boss Corvus, I’ve got Vernon and his family tied up. We’ve trashed their stuff, and they said they’d leave by tomorrow. Do you want to come over and see them one last time?" Maison said as he tried to keep his voice steady."Excellent! You’ve done a great job. The rest of your payment will be in your account soon!" Corvus’s voice on the other end was filled with glee. The success of this scheme had lifted his spirits after days of frustration caused by Vernon’s rising company. He decided to see the defeated family himself, bringing a few bodyguards along as he drove straight to Vernon’s factory.When Corvus arrived, he found Vernon seemingly bound up and Maison limping toward him, accompanied by his injured henchmen."What happened to you?" Corvus asked, puzzled."Nothing... just had a little scuffle with som

    Just then, Xayne stepped out. Maison and the others quickly stood aside, respectfully making way for him. Angel followed closely behind, her eyes fixed on Xayne's back, her heart filled with an overwhelming sense of happiness.Corvus looked at Xayne with a puzzled expression. "Who are you?"Xayne replied coldly, "Who I am doesn't matter. What you need to remember is that I'm here today to give you a warning."He walked up to Corvus and grabbed him by the throat, lifting him off the ground with one hand. Corvus's strength was nowhere near enough to break free from Xayne's iron grip, and he dangled helplessly in the air as he gasped for breath."This is just a warning. If you dare to mess with them again, I'll crush you like an ant." Xayne spoke these words slowly, tightening his grip just enough to drive the point home. Corvus's eyes rolled back, and his tongue lolled out as he felt the cold grip of death closing in.At that moment, Corvus truly understood what it meant to face d

    On the other end of the line, Lowes frowned slightly. "Corvus? What's the matter?""Master Lowes, it's like this… I completed the task you gave me. But they brought in a tough young guy who beat me and my men to a pulp… He even threatened me…" Corvus complained, his voice tinged with frustration.Lowes chuckled coldly. "Is this young man called Xayne?""Xayne? Yeah, I think that was his name… Master Lowes, you know that punk?" Corvus was taken aback, not expecting Lowes to be familiar with the name."Enough. I'll handle the rest of this myself. You're off the hook." Lowes said with a cold tone before he hung up abruptly.Corvus stared at the disconnected call as his expression grew darker. 'What the hell is going on? 'Lowes had specifically instructed him to go after the Duncan family, and now he was told to back off. He couldn't just let this slide.The more he thought about it, the more furious Corvus became. Frustrated, he redialed the previous number and snarled, "Up the

    The King of the North would soon be nothing more than history, a stepping stone for the Bullard family to conquer Drakonia.After the meeting adjourned, Lowes and his butler went to Hyenka's secluded retreat in the ancestral shrine behind the Bullard family estate.The ancestral shrine was grand and glorious, resembling a palace. Lowes stood respectfully at the entrance, kneeling on a yellow cushion, and bowed deeply. In a humble tone, he called out, "Master Hyenka, I have something important to report."After a moment, a deep, displeased voice echoed from within the shrine. "What matter is so important that it interrupts my seclusion?"Sensing the dissatisfaction and anger in Hyenka’s tone, Lowes immediately prostrated himself further, trembling as he replied, "Master Hyenka, Xayne did not die in the Northern Plains but secretly returned to Folksworth. According to the reports from our informants within the Combat Division, Xayne has now reached the level of a Bi-Divine Commander.

    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
