"What's going on?" Xayne answered the call with a calm tone."Drakon King, the intelligence department of Dracarium has recently uncovered some important information. I felt it necessary to inform you immediately," Dragos said with a serious tone.Xayne frowned as he questioned, "What intel?"Dragos continued, "First, the recent joint military exercises near the northern border have clear implications of being aimed at Northern Plains. They're acting on orders from a Nine Nation Summit led by Newcroa."Upon hearing this, Xayne's face darkened. "I knew it. This is their way of testing the new leadership in Dragon Nation. What else?""The second piece of intel is about the Big Four. We've been gathering evidence on them as per your instructions, and we’ve found something. The Bullard family is suspected of treason. They’ve been secretly exchanging information with neighboring countries, and they’ve even had covert meetings with the Nine Nation Summit."Immediately, Xayne squinted a

Xayne thought for a moment before pushing open the old wooden door, which creaked loudly as it moved.A wave of the pungent scent of herbal medicine greeted him.The shop was not large, but it was packed with various medicinal herbs. Inside, a young man was busy tallying accounts while weighing herbs on a small scale. Without lifting his head, the young man spoke flatly, "In the back," still focused on his work.Xayne glanced to the side and noticed a gray cloth curtain hanging over an entryway.After a brief hesitation, he pulled the curtain aside. As soon as he stepped through, the pleasant aroma of herbs filled the air, followed by the jingling of a bell.Suddenly, a small, delicate figure crashed right into his chest with a thud, accompanied by a soft yelp of pain."Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?!"Xayne was startled as he looked down to see a girl. She was not more than seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in a white dress. Gold anklets and bracelets with t

There was something off about the tea as expected.But Xayne did not want to call her out directly.The moment the young girl saw him drink the tea she had brewed, she put her hands on her hips, pointed at him, and laughed wickedly. "Hahaha! You're out of luck! After drinking my tea, you'll be stuck on the toilet for three days!"The old man beside her froze, then barked, "Octavia! How dare you! You can't treat guests like this! Apologize to Mr. Xayne at once!"Octavia pouted as she shook her ponytails in defiance. "No way! Grandpa, he bumped into me first! I only gave him a little laxative—it could've been worse! If it were anyone else, I would've slipped them some real poison!"Hmph! Apologize to me! If you make me happy, I'll give you the antidote," she said, glaring at Xayne with smug satisfaction.Xayne put the cup down and smirked without a word.He stood up, moved swiftly, and grabbed her by the arm. Before Octavia could react, Xayne had already retrieved a packet of powd

Upon hearing the Light Order, the old man's hand trembled slightly. He frowned, placed the cup down, and glanced at Octavia, who was standing nearby, observing Xayne."Octavia, step out for a moment," he said. "Mr. Xayne and I need to discuss something."Octavia pouted in frustration and muttered an unhappy "Okay." She then turned around and left the room immediately.Once she left the old man finally spoke. "Mr. Xayne, how did you come to know about the Light Order?"Xayne replied, "I have my own sources."The old man nodded, then continued, "Since that's the case, I won't hide anything from you. The Light Order is the group your grandfather is currently a part of. It’s an organization that operates beyond normal society, rarely showing itself to the outside world. Even the most powerful underground intelligence network in Westfordia has no trace of information on the Light Order."Xayne nodded. "That's what I suspected. That's why I've come to you, to understand exactly what th
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1961
Even gods were insignificant compared to a Master of the Human Realm.The fact that the Creator of the Light Order was a Master of the Human Realm meant that he surpassed the level of gods. It was an unbelievably terrifying power.A being like that could rule the world with a mere thought, shifting the winds and clouds with the flick of a hand. If he wished, no force could ever go against him.Xayne’s face was filled with shock, and it took him quite a while to calm down.'A Master of the Human Realm. What an untouchable realm of power.'"Did Grandpa really say that?" Xayne asked.The old man nodded. "Yes, your grandfather did say that. The Creator’s strength isn’t below his, and it’s very likely he’s already taken that step and reached the level of a Master of the Human Realm!"Xayne nodded as he frowned.The Light Order was clearly no ordinary organization. Its power was beyond imagination.It had so many Divine Commander-level warriors, six Radiant Commanders, and even a Mas

The group of thugs loudly surrounded the entrance to the herbal shop.Lisa rushed out immediately, hands on her hips, pointing at them and shouting, "Why are you here again? I've told you, we're not moving! This place is my home! If you don't leave right now, I'm calling the cops!"The leader was a man in a black suit and sunglasses. He was tall, bulky, and crude-looking.He slowly removed his sunglasses, revealing a sleazy grin as he sized up Lisa. "Little girl, are you sure you want to call the cops? Let me tell you the truth—today, you're moving whether you like it or not. This place now belongs to our boss, Mr. Cornelius. Here's the contract. Take it to your grandpa."He tossed a stack of papers at Lisa.Lisa glanced at it briefly, but when she saw the amount listed, fifty thousand dollars, her temper flared. "Fifty thousand? You think you can buy our shop for fifty thousand? This is robbery! We'll never agree to this!"The man in sunglasses chuckled as he polished his lenses.
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1963
"Get lost!" Xayne's voice was cold, and with a swift kick, he sent the man in sunglasses flying.The man groaned, tumbling a few times across the pavement before clutching his stomach and spitting out a mouthful of blood. He pointed a trembling finger at Xayne from a distance as he struggled to his feet angrily."You punk! Just you wait! How dare you mess with Three Abundant Realty! You're dead meat!"Without another word, the man jumped into a car with a few of his still-standing cronies, peeling out of the lot in a hurry.As the car sped away, Lisa rushed over to Xayne with fear and anxiety."Xayne, you need to leave now! Three Abundant Realty is bad news. They've got serious connections all over the city. You're in trouble for sure after this."Xayne chuckled as he ruffled Lisa's hair."Don't worry," he said calmly. "I'll take care of it."With that, Xayne pulled a chair over, sat down right at the shop's entrance, and closed his eyes. In his mind, he quietly reviewed the fr

Cornelius nodded as he glared coldly at Xayne. His voice was filled with menace. "Friend, are you really going to stand up for these people? Don't you know that those who cross me either end up dead or crippled? Which one do you want?"As he spoke, a sinister smile crept across Cornelius's face. To him, Xayne was just another nobody, unfamiliar and insignificant.Xayne slowly raised his head, giving Cornelius a calm, indifferent look. His voice was steady as he said, "I'll give you two options. First, compensate the residents fairly at market value, and if they refuse to move, you won't force them. Secondly, Three Abundant Realty disappears from this city."The forty or so thugs gasped in shock. 'The arrogance. How can anyone speak to Mr. Cornelius, the head of Three Abundant Realty, like that?'Cornelius's face darkened. Then, with a sudden chuckle, he stared at Xayne and said, "You've got guts, kid! I like that. I appreciate talent. Come work for me. I'll pay you a hundred gran

"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
