Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 1985
Layce's brief yet passionate speech left the audience in a stunned realization.Healers Valley had existed for at least a thousand years.If Serena Group could also last for a thousand years, they would come up with thirty thousand new drugs.Compared to the thousands of formulas Seventh Elder had mentioned, it was a crushing victory."I refuse to accept this. Healers Valley can offer five hundred secret formulas right now to collaborate with United Med."The Seventh Elder was nearly seething with rage. Serena Group could not be compared to them. They were a respected, time-honored institution, while Serena Group was just a small business in the secular world. There was simply no comparison.Healers Valley could last a millennium. He didn't believe that Serena Group could do the same.Besides, no businessmen would think about trade a thousand years from now. That was absurd."Seventh Elder, you want to prove the strength of Healers Valley? Unfortunately, those formulas are wort

"Next, we welcome Ms. Serena to deliver her speech!"Layce finished speaking and handed the microphone to Serena.As Serena's gaze swept across the faces of the pharmaceutical executives seated below, she could clearly sense their unease.Xayne gave her a subtle nod as he sat calmly, signaling that she did not need to hold back.When these pharmaceutical companies had teamed up with Healers Valley to blacklist the Serena Group, they had shown no mercy. Now, Serena was not going to show any either."First, I'm very pleased to have earned the recognition of United Med. It's a great honor to be partnering with such a prestigious company! Secondly, I'd like to make an official announcement.The Serena Group will be blacklisting Healers Valley and any pharmaceutical companies that continue doing business with them,effective immediately!"The room instantly fell silent.No one had expected Serena, a seemingly gentle woman, to speak with such boldness.Moreover, her expression was unwa

Xayne's hand gently rested on Serena's shoulder.Serena's body trembled slightly, as if a warm current flowed from Xayne's hand into her, easing the tension she had felt moments earlier."I feel much better now. I was really scared back there."Even though it was not her first time dealing with reporters, it was the first time Serena had shown such a strong stance in front of so many people."Tit for tat. If they can blacklist us, we can do the same to them. What goes around comes around," Xayne said with a smile.Serena nodded firmly, clenching her small fists and biting her lip as if she was silently cheering herself on.'You've got this, Serena.'"Mr. Xayne, how do you think we did on today's mission? Was it up to standard?" Layce asked quietly as he stood beside Xayne.Xayne did not respond verbally but gave a slight nod, indicating his approval.Only then did Layce relax. He turned to both Serena and Xayne. "Well, if you'll excuse us, we need to report back to headquarter

Early the next morning, just as Serena and Xayne arrived at the office, Evelyn burst through the door, looking concerned. "Ms. Serena, Mr. Xayne, Mr. Lionel and a few people from Healers Valley stormed into the office this morning. They even injured one of our employees! They're causing a scene right now, demanding to see both of you!"Xayne frowned, as he coldly asked, "Who was hurt?""Who else? Our security guard, Phillip. He tried to stop them from barging in, but one of Dave's lackeys shoved him into a wall. His head's split open!" Evelyn said fumingly."Take me to him!" Xayne's face darkened as he immediately strode toward the door.Serena followed closely behind. When they reached the hallway, they saw a few employees tending to Phillip's wound. His security uniform was soaked in blood, and from the looks of it, he had taken a hard hit."What happened?" Xayne asked sternly as he approached Phillip."Mr. Xayne, I'm fine. Please don't make a big deal out of—""I asked you

"Just a security guard?!"Xayne's eyes gleamed coldly. Without warning, he picked up a pen from the table and, with a flick of his wrist, threw it through the air.The pen embedded itself in the man's knee. With a loud thud, the man collapsed to one knee, clutching his leg and screaming in agony. His cry echoed through the room like a pig being slaughtered."How dare you, Xayne?!" Dave slammed the table as he shot to his feet.Lionel pointed a finger at Xayne, full of indignation. "Xayne, this is outrageous! How dare you strike Dave's attendant? Forget about injuring your lowly security guard. So what if he had died?!""So what?" Xayne's eyes glinted dangerously as he lifted his hand. Three silver needles appeared in his palm, and with a mere thought, they shot forward.The needles pierced straight through the injured man's forehead. He collapsed, dead on the spot.The reception room fell into an eerie silence. No one could believe what had just happened. Xayne had decisively ki

Dave clutched his flushed face as he glared viciously at Xayne.For a full minute, he stood there, seething in silence. Then, with a sharp flick of his sleeve, he turned and stormed toward the door."Stop!" Xayne's cold voice rang out from behind him.Dave's body froze. He thought would Xayne really going to stop him from leaving."What... what more do you want?" Dave took a step back, fear creeping into his expression as he stared at Xayne's back."I'm going to take out the trash," Xayne said icily. "And tell Healers Valley they owe me 150 thousand in damages."Dave gritted his teeth, pulled out a checkbook, and wrote out a check for 150 thousand dollars. He slammed it on the table, pointed at the dead Healers Valley disciple sprawled on the floor."Grab Maxson's body. We're leaving!"With those words, Dave stormed out of Serena Group.Lionel, who had followed Dave, glanced nervously at the elder's dark expression but did not dare say a word.Back at Healers Valley, Dave w

The Grand Elder nodded firmly. He finally understood the painstaking efforts behind Haqin's plans and the fog clouding his mind lifted. With newfound clarity, he walked out of the room.When the Seventh Elder received the call from the Grand Elder, despair washed over him.He never thought it would come to this. Healers Valley really was going to make him kneel and apologize."Grand Elder, I... I refuse!" Seventh Elder clutched his chest as he nearly coughed up blood."Refuse? If you refuse, don't bother coming back to Healers Valley!" The Grand Elder hung up, giving the Seventh Elder no chance to argue.With the phone still in his hand, Seventh Elder's face went pale. He was thinking of the possible places he could go if he could not return to Healers Valley.The next morning, something happened that shocked everyone. Seventh Elder was kneeling at the entrance of Serena Group, repeatedly banging his head on the ground in apology.Behind him, a long line of pharmaceutical compan

"700 million dollars for just 5% of the company?"Serena was slightly taken aback as she frowned. "Mr. Bravo, did I hear you right? 700 million, and you only want 5% of our company's equity?"Bravo smiled warmly. "You heard correctly. Serena Group has become a major player in the industry, a company that can set the rules of the game. Its potential is limitless. Honestly, even getting 1% would be an honor for me."Upon seeing the sincerity in Bravo, Serena's suspicions eased."Mr. Bravo, if it's convenient, may I take a look at your stock purchase agreement?" She asked.Bravo grinned and pulled out the prepared document from his briefcase.The agreement was straightforward. There were no terms that would be detrimental to Serena Group.Throughout the meeting, Bravo remained respectful and earnest, which helped Serena lower her guard even further.After about an hour of discussion, Serena finally agreed to the deal and signed the contract.Immediately, Bravo transferred the 700

"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

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
