Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1914
Xayne watched as the old man swung his sword toward him. Instead of retreating, he charged straight at the attack.Seeing this, the old man widened his eyes, his aura exploding with the terrifying force of a Bi-Divine Commander."You arrogant fool. How dare you face me head-on. Prepare to die!" The old man roared, slashing his narrow, icy sword, sending out multiple waves of chilling sword energy that could freeze to the bone.In an instant, the temperature across the courtyard plummeted.Xayne felt the full brunt of it. The icy blast cut through the air, chilling him to the core as the sharp coldness bit into his skin, sending shivers down his spine.But Xayne didn’t flinch. He thrust out his Ravenclaw Dagger, and with a clang, it collided midair with the old man’s sword. A shower of silvery-white sparks erupted between them.The force of their clash was enormous, radiating outward like a nuclear blast, pushing everything around them back.The courtyard was instantly filled wit

However, Xayne showed no fear. He charged forward without hesitation.It was simple.Xayne wanted to use this battle as his baptism.The more brutal the fight, the more beneficial it was for him to challenge himself beyond his limits.As the other six Sword Circle masters looked on with cold, mocking gazes, Xayne plunged forward resolutely."Hmph. To challenge the First Sword of the Sword of Thirteen Provinces is nothing but self-delusion." The heavy-sword man who had been knocked back by Xayne earlier sneered with ruthless scorn."With the power of the First Sword’s strike, we could only flee. How dare he withstand it?""This battle is already won by the First Sword. Drakonia will no longer have the King of the North."The six of them mocked in unison.Meanwhile, from a high vantage point, Drake watched the scene unfold with a faint smile. "It seems, Circle Master, that you are about to lose."To Drake’s eyes, the power of that strike was overwhelming. Even he might not esca

The old man’s body smashed through several massive stone pillars before crashing onto the ground, creating a deep crater in the shape of a human form.In an instant, the courtyard was filled with dust and debris.Everyone was stunned by the sight.This was the First Sword of the Seven Swords, a powerhouse on the brink of reaching Tri-Divine Commander.Now, he had been defeated.The other six Sword Circle masters were also in shock, their faces frozen with disbelief. They could barely catch their breath.At this moment, in everyone’s eyes, Xayne stood still, holding the Drakon Spear which was ablaze with red flames. The spear swept through the air in his hands, its power overwhelming.From a distance, the six Sword Circle masters rushed forward, blocking Xayne’s path. Each of them burned with fierce, searing anger in their eyes."How dare you, young one?""First Sword. Are you alright?""You’ve injured the First Sword of the Circle, Commander Xayne. Do you want to fight us to
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1917
In a split second, the sky and earth were filled with six terrifying blasts of sword energy.The merging of six swords was one of the most powerful techniques of the Sword Circle, the pinnacle of their seven-sword discipline.Originally, it was meant to combine all seven swords.But now, with the First Sword gravely injured and the sword shattered, there was no way they could achieve the full combination of seven swords anymore.Still, even with just six, their power was monstrous, enough to kill a Bi-Divine Commander without breaking a sweat.At this moment, Xayne frowned as he watched six blades hurtle toward him from different directions, each brimming with deadly energy and danger.The combined force of these six swords could split the heavens and shatter the earth, wiping out armies."Xayne! Die!"In a terrifying convergence, the six swords came together like the petals of a lotus, aiming for Xayne.Xayne gripped his crimson Drakon Spear and swept it in one swift motion.

At this moment, the Emperor's Pavillion square was filled with high-ranking officials, their eyes all fixed on the grand entrance.A towering figure, radiating immense pressure, stepped inside, gripping the golden Drakon Sword. With every step he took, the tension in the air grew thicker.Seeing that figure, the crowd collectively gasped, struggling to catch their breath."It's the King of the North?""He's here.""Look, he's holding the Drakon Sword."Whispers of disbelief rippled through the crowd.Holding the Drakon Sword, Xayne looked cold and resolute, striding past the kneeling officials at the entrance and walking straight toward the Crown Prince.The golden Drakon Sword rose, and Xayne swung it toward the Crown Prince.Every nerve in the crowd was stretched taut.No one dared to breathe.As the Drakon Sword neared the Crown Prince, the hearts of everyone present jumped into their throats.But at the last moment, the sword stopped just an inch from the Crown Prince's
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1919
Xayne immediately dropped to one knee, shouting, "I will obey the Emperor's command!"The Emperor smiled warmly, lifting Xayne as he spoke in a heartfelt tone, "Xayne, from now on, Drakonia will be in the hands of you young ones. Support the Crown Prince well, and build an eternal legacy for the nation."Xayne frowned, but he respectfully replied, "Yes."The Emperor then turned to the Crown Prince, gesturing for him to come closer. "Your Highness, you are the foundation of this kingdom. This farce must end. From today onward, Drakonia is yours. I hope you'll serve the people and the nation wholeheartedly."The Crown Prince quickly bowed, replying, "Your Majesty is right. I swear to devote all my efforts to the kingdom's prosperity and grand future. The heavens and the earth bear witness to my vow."The Emperor nodded in approval.He then looked at Xayne and said, "Xayne, remember this, with the Drakon Sword in your hand, if the heavens are unjust, you may wield it against them. I

Everyone at the scene was filled with shock and disbelief. The old emperor had just been laid to rest in the ancestral temple, and now, the new emperor was already eager to arrest a loyal minister.Immediately, Hammond stepped forward, his face dark with anger. He glared at the officer and roared, "What did you just say? Say it again. Who is a traitor? Ask the soldiers of Drakonia, ask the citizens, ask us, who is the real traitor?"The officer, startled by Hammond's imposing aura, froze on the spot, unable to respond for a long moment. When he had received the order earlier, he had been just as confused and anxious. However, a command from the new emperor could not be disobeyed.He stammered, "Master Hammond, I'm just following orders. I hope you won't make things difficult for me.""Difficult? I think you are the real traitor!" Hammond shouted furiously, his face filled with rage.Beside him, the General of the Combat Division, wearing a stern expression, stepped forward with hi

Hilton stood silently at the side, watching the intense chess match between Xayne and the new Emperor. Xayne placed his pieces casually, yet each move seemed to form a meticulous strategy. The new Emperor, on the other hand, played aggressively, relentlessly pressing Xayne. The chessboard had turned into a fierce battleground, with both sides constantly adjusting their strategies, resulting in a brutal and unyielding conflict.Hilton, observing from the side, broke into a cold sweat. The depth of this chess game was unfathomable. The battle unfolding on the chessboard mirrored a vicious, bloody fight.Meanwhile, outside the Emperor's Pavillion, a formidable force of ten thousand heavily armed soldiers had quietly surrounded the building. They were equipped with the most advanced weapons, and the area within a five-mile radius had been sealed off completely.At the same time, battalions of black-armored soldiers, armed with guns and blades, infiltrated the pavilion, locking down

"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

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
