Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2123
The middle-aged man's face twisted into a cruel grin as he gripped the little boy's hair tightly.The boy's eyes brimmed with tears, but he clenched his jaw, refusing to cry out."Rory! That girl you dishonored back then was a citizen of Drakonia! She was only sixteen, and you kept her locked in your quarters, brutalizing her until she died!"Don't you understand? As an officer of our nation, your actions defied all decency and honor. How could I have left you in your post and still claimed to serve justice?" Warren roared, pointing an accusatory finger at the man.Rory laughed smugly, shoving the boy into the hands of an enforcer nearby. With his hands clasped behind his back, he pointed to his polished jacket and sneered, "You're just jealous, Warren. You don't like me! But it doesn't matter. Hilton sees my worth. Look at me now. I have everything I could want. Look at you. You're miserable!""You're all cut from the same rotten cloth! There will come a day when you all get what

The enforcer stared at his severed hand, bewildered, wondering whose hand was on the floor. In the next second, searing pain shot up from his wrist."My hand!" he screamed, clutching the stump as blood spurted out."Who did that?" Rory shouted, momentarily shaken. The throw had been so precise that he wouldn't be alive right now if it had been aimed at him."It was me!" Xayne stepped out from the doorway, his hands clasped behind him. Pointing calmly at the young boy, he declared, "Let him go, and I'll give you a quick death. If not, I'll ensure you beg for death."Rory's face paled at first, but he quickly regained his composure, sneering as he reminded himself that Xayne was no longer the King of the North. A smirk tugged at his lips. "So, it turns out you're in cahoots with these old fools. Perfect. Saves me the trouble of coming to hunt you down in Folksworth."He turned to his men. "Arrest him!"In an instant, a dozen enforcers drew their pistols, and each one pointed at Xay

'Vinny Sands?'Xayne thought that he had left Wyncock thirty years ago.Xayne's mind flashed back to the stories about this man's illustrious past. Decades ago, Vinny was a fearsome force within Wyncock, single-handedly defeating the masters of dozens of circles before finally challenging KB Kings Circle.Klink, then a Bi-Divine Commander, accepted the challenge when this man was already a Tri-Divine Commander and, within five moves, left Vinny defeated and gravely wounded, nearly killing him. Only Klink's disdain for taking his life spared Vinny from an unmarked grave. Since that crushing defeat, Vinny had vanished from Wyncock.Rumors swirled. Some said he had taken his own life, while others claimed he was training in seclusion, determined to return stronger.Now, thirty years later, his sudden appearance made Xayne narrow his eyes, not out of fear, but wonder at the mysterious forces behind Hilton, who could mobilize a figure long thought lost to the ages that even if his disc
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2126
Without the Heavenly Tome, Xander would never have achieved Quad Radiant Commander level in just twenty years, surpassing Klink's level by several realms. Despite his brilliance, Klink relied only on his perseverance and occasional insights. In contrast, the Xavier family possessed a heritage system, allowing them to master techniques and harness powers with efficiency that left Klink far behind.Vinny's eyes narrowed with certainty. "There's a secret you're hiding, boy!"Xayne turned, locking his icy gaze on Vinny. "I told you I'd see you meet justice today. This is where you die."With that, Xayne stepped forward and threw a powerful punch straight at Vinny's chest. Despite his fading strength and deteriorating skills over the years, Vinny was still an experienced fighter and wouldn't easily succumb. Seeing Xayne's fist hurtling toward his chest, Vinny sidestepped swiftly and sent a palm strike toward Xayne's abdomen.A fierce blast of energy surged with terrifying force, targe
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2127
Xayne remembered the terrifying technique of the Yin-Yang Lord. With just a single pointed finger, he had been plunged into an endless illusion in front of his eyes. He surely would have perished under that attack if he hadn't already merged with the Crimson Dragon's Heart. Light, fire, and shadow were the three natural forces that could create illusions potent enough to deceive any opponent.Though he had merged with the Golden Dragon's Heart, Xayne had never attempted this particular formation before. Now was the time.With a single decisive finger-point, the space around him trembled as though bending under the pressure. Vinny prepared to counter, raising his palm to strike, but suddenly, everything before him went pitch black.He had no idea what was going on.Warren's estate, the law enforcement officers, and Rory had all vanished. Even Xayne was nowhere to be seen. With his hand raised, Vinny stood paralyzed in this dark void, eyes darting back and forth in utter confusion.

He wanted to torture a seven-year-old child, even suggesting skinning their legs. No human could speak such words."Rory, just kill yourself. Otherwise, I'll make sure you suffer a fate worse than death." Xayne's voice was frigid as he commanded.No matter who Rory was, Xayne would never let him go alive. He would avenge both Warren's and Hammond's families."Xayne! I'm warning you. I came here under the Emperor's orders to investigate Warren and Hammond! Don't forget, you're no longer the King of the North!" Rory pointed at Xayne and shouted angrily as he saw that Xayne refused to let him go."Xayne, enough. Let him go. If you kill him, the Emperor will…" Warren tried to intercede."Warren, if the Emperor questions it, I will bear the consequences. But this man must die today," Xayne replied firmly.With that, Xayne turned to Dragos and summoned him."Yes, sir!" Dragos replied, shaking with rage, itching to tear Rory to pieces and feed him to the dogs.Seeing the murderous int

With a wave, Xayne signaled the law enforcement officers to leave. Relieved to escape, they scrambled to their feet and ran, not bothering to retrieve Rory's body.As the officers disappeared, Xayne approached Warren and said, "Warren, it's no longer safe for you here. Why not come back with me to Folksworth?""Return to Folksworth?" Warren shook his head slowly. Leaving was no longer an option for him. Warren knew that with Rory's death here and the Emperor's men already watching, any sudden relocation would appear suspicious."I appreciate your kindness, Xayne, but if Hammond and I were to leave now, it would only give our enemies more to use against us. The Emperor will get the truth about Rory's death, and I cannot abandon my home." He paused, then added, "However, can I entrust my grandson to your care?"At that, Warren called over his grandson, a seven-year-old boy who clung tightly to his grandfather's leg and refused to leave."Wade, you need to be brave and obey Xayne," W

Before long, an elderly man emerged from inside the courtyard, opened the gate, and glanced around before inviting Hilton in."I must see Albert at once," Hilton said urgently."Of course, please follow me. Albert is having tea in the back hall," the elder replied, leading him to the rear of the courtyard.In front of a pavilion, a white-haired elder was leisurely sipping tea, engrossed in an ancient book. He would occasionally pause to reflect, closing his eyes in thought."Albert! We're in serious trouble!" Upon seeing the elder, Hilton hurried over, his expression fraught with panic."What's happened? You're the national advisor. Why are you so flustered? Has the new ruler turned against you?" Albert observed Hilton with calm eyes."No, it's not the new ruler. A few days ago, I acted on your advice and recommended that the Emperor eliminate Warren and the others. The Emperor hesitated, prompting me to send people to inquire about them at their ancestral home."Albert nodded 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

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
