With that, the Emperor tossed the battle report to the ground and strode out of the hall."Jade, I advise you to stay out of this matter with Xayne. Otherwise, you might find yourself in grave danger." Once the Emperor was out of earshot, Hilton approached Jade, coldly threatening him."You...""Hmph. You’re courting death." Hilton didn’t wait for Jade to finish. He flicked his sleeve and left the hall with quick strides.Meanwhile, in the courtyard behind the Emperor's Pavillion, the Emperor stood at the astrological platform, one hand behind his back, his fist clenched, gazing up at the stars.Tears glimmered in his eyes."May the heavens protect my soldiers in Northern Plains. I do not wish to abandon them, but the time is not right."With that thought, the Emperor clenched his fist tightly, the sound of cracking knuckles echoing in the stillness."KB Kings Circle. The Big Four. Healers Valley. I will remember this debt."After muttering those words, the Emperor finally took

Even many courtiers who despised Xayne to the core, wishing they could flay him alive, were now kneeling on the ground.In unison, they cried, "Your Majesty, please summon the King of the North back to Drakonix to take charge of the battle!"When it came to self-preservation, even the fiercest hatred paled in comparison. The dead had no right to speak of interests.At this moment, Hilton was left speechless, wanting to intervene.However, with the court kneeling, his voice could not be heard above the chorus of a hundred."Please. Your Majesty, summon the King of the North back to Drakonix." Despite his reluctance, Hilton joined the crowd in pleading with the Emperor."Since you all wish for me to summon the King of the North, then I shall heed your wishes."With that, the Emperor raised his red brush and swiftly penned a decree, passing it to Warren.After glancing over the decree, Warren hurried off towards the Drakonian Council.Meanwhile, far away in Folksworth, Xayne had

However, he had never been as confident as he was today."Let’s hope so. If we can kill Xayne at Barnie Pass, my master will make sure to reward you all properly." The Drakonian man smiled as he spoke.Mars simply responded with a knowing smile.These foolish Drakonians were still living in a dream, thinking they could capture the Emperor and retreat, returning to their homeland. By that time, Drakonia would likely no longer exist. Northern Plains would belong to Bearonia. The heartland of Drakonia would fall to Newcroa. All the islands would become part of the Great Sun Empire.No one knew what would happen to the master that the Drakonian man spoke of.At that moment, a fighter jet flew overhead.Mars couldn't help but look up. The solitary jet signified that it was not there for battle or airstrike but rather to escort someone.'Is Xayne on that plane?'Mars's eyes gleamed as he watched the jet descend. Taking a deep breath, he realized that his long-held wish was finally

"The King of the North has arrived."At the call of the palace servant at the entrance, both the Emperor and Warren looked up, their expressions shifting with anticipation.Xayne strode in confidently, exuding charisma as he approached the Emperor's Pavillion.Jade followed closely behind, holding the five-clawed azure-patterned golden dragon robe, his demeanor serious.The two entered Emperor's Pavillion, and Xayne knelt, declaring, "I, Xayne, pay my respects to the Emperor.""Rise, Xayne. As for the soldiers on the front lines, I believe I need not say more," the Emperor said with a pleased look."I understand, but I have a plan."The Emperor raised a hand to interrupt, signaling Xayne to hold off. He then turned to the others and said, "Everyone, leave."The attendants and soldiers quickly exited the hall.The Emperor shot a glance at Jade. "Anyone who dares to step in here will be executed on the spot.""Understood," Jade replied, promptly moving outside to stand guard.

Before long, Warren returned, urgency etched across his face.Seeing the two leaders in the room lost in their thoughts, he stepped forward. "Xayne, right now, we have no troops to spare. You need to infiltrate the Northern Plains alone. Are you confident?"The only remaining Imperial guards of ten thousand had been sent to the front lines, reduced to mere cannon fodder.Drakonix was left with fewer than fifty thousand soldiers, its last line of defense. If Xayne managed to take even a fraction of that away, it would mean handing over Drakonix to the coalition forces."The Emperor could send a thousand men to guard the south gate, but not within the city. It hast to be a few miles outside. That could yield great rewards," Xayne proposed, bowing slightly before exiting the grand hall.Warren hurried after him, urgency in his voice. "What did you mean by that last comment?""There will be great rewards, trust me. Apart from other things, tens of tons of gold shouldn’t be an issue.

At the sound of the sentries' shouts, several figures emerged from the camp.Xayne squinted in the dim light and recognized Trey and Red Rose.Trey leaned heavily on a tree branch, bandages wrapped around his leg and arm. Red Rose looked a bit better, though she was nursing some light injuries; still, her expression revealed the situation was dire."Supreme Commander.""Supreme Commander."Tears filled Red Rose's eyes, and Trey looked on the verge of breaking down."Why are there only about a thousand of you here?" Xayne asked, quickening his pace toward them."We had to scatter to avoid being surrounded by the enemy. Today, they launched several fierce attacks. Our losses were staggering, nearly three thousand of the Dragonbreakers Legion fell in just a morning," Red Rose replied, her voice shaking with emotion."Even at night, we can't light a fire, afraid the glow would give away our position," Trey added, his shame evident.Since the formation of the Dragonbreakers Legion,

After days of grueling battles, the moment the troops laid eyes on Xayne, their spirits surged back to life.Countless eyes were fixed on him as if they were waiting for his command to reclaim their honor."I know you’re all exhausted," he began, his voice steady and fierce. "But tonight, we’re taking back Jina Pass. We’re going to avenge our fallen comrades and the innocent lives trampled by the coalition forces.""Revenge!"In an instant, the fire in their eyes ignited."Target Jina Pass, let’s move." Xayne signaled, leading Red Rose and three thousand elite soldiers into the shadows of the night.After nearly an hour of swift marching, Jina Pass was within reach."Stop." Xayne raised his arm, fist clenched.The three thousand soldiers dropped to the hillside, gazing at the distant stronghold."I’ll go in first and take out their commander. When you see fire on the ramparts, charge in through the south gate. Remember, any invader, regardless of whether they surrender, is to

When Danier heard the name "Xayne," he slowly removed the eye patch from his left eye, his fists clenching tight.Years ago, it was Xayne who had pierced that eye with a silver needle. If he hadn't acted quickly to pull it out, the grass would be thick on his grave by now, enough to host a bonfire party."Is it Xayne? I'll tear him apart."A powerful gust filled the room, sending furniture and documents flying out the window.The soldier delivering the report fell to the ground, terrified. The fury of a Celestial Dracarium Commander was not to be trifled with. Just moments ago, he had felt a blade-like wind slice across his cheek. The pain was like being scraped on the face by a knife."Tearing him apart might be too ambitious, but shredding him into pieces could work. Hanging his head on the ramparts might just force those annoying Dragonbreakers legion to surrender," Smithie said, a cruel smile creeping across his lips.The two figures leaped out the window, racing toward the s

"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
