Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2140
Silas and his brother were left speechless by Serena's pointed questions.Beside her, Jean also rose, saying, "As I recall, it was the two of you who first suggested carving up the Serena Group. You both seemed quite thrilled about it back then. Where was this lack of choice?""Jean! No one asked for your input!" Amos snapped, his gaze icy.Jean smirked. "Mr. Bram, if this were a few days ago, I'd hardly have the right to speak to you this way. But times change, and now you'll need to answer for your words and actions."Mr. Xayne is a fair man, only asking you to hand over your assets while sparing your lives. That's about as generous as it gets."Before Jean could finish, Bram slammed the table as his old eyes blazed with cold fury. The weight of his authority bore down on Jean like a suffocating shadow.Although Bram said nothing, Jean felt the unspoken pressure."Ms. Serena," Bram finally spoke with a smooth yet commanding tone, "I believe our conversation here doesn't requir

Upon hearing Bram’s threat, Serena paused, glancing back at him with a steely gaze. “The day the Shaw family decided to go against Serena Group, we'd already drawn our battle lines,” she replied with a cold tone.With that, she turned and strode out of the office without another glance.Jean let out a mirthless chuckle, addressing Bram. “Mr. Bram, times have changed. The outcome might surprise you if you don’t surrender your assets.”He, too, quickly exited the conference room.Bram seethed, left sitting in the empty room. 'How dare Serena ignore me like this?!'“She got some nerves, that Serena! You really want to force my hand?” he snarled, slamming his fist on the table. “Let’s go. She’ll be begging us soon enough.”Bram stormed out as his sons followed in his furious wake.Just as they reached the hallway, Evelyn, preoccupied with her thoughts, accidentally bumped into him, scattering the files she was carrying.“Oh! I’m so sorry!” Evelyn quickly knelt, gathering the fall
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2142
Upon seeing Serena's eyes flash with anger, Evelyn realized there was no hiding the truth anymore. Reluctantly, she recounted how she had been slapped."Why didn't you call for help then?" Serena demanded. Her cheeks flushed with anger as she clenched her fists."Ms. Serena, it was just a slap. It's not a big deal. No harm done," Evelyn replied, trying to downplay the incident. She knew too well that the Shaw family was not to be trifled with, as not even local officials dared cross them."Fine. Get back to work," Serena said with a wave, noting Evelyn's clear reluctance to stir up trouble.Once Evelyn left, Jean frowned, addressing Serena. "Ms. Serena, there's a high chance the Shaw family will retaliate. I suggest not using your regular driver today."With that, Jean quickly sent a message to Esmond.Since they were now on the same side, Jean was not about to pass up a chance to build rapport with Esmond. He had already gotten his number and had been hosting him at Leng family

Jean grinned and said, "Ms. Serena, I'm just a follower. Even if Bram is upset, he won't take it out on me. But you, with Mr. Xayne out of town, might want to avoid coming to the office these next few days. If anything urgent comes up, I'll inform Ms. Evelyn to bring the documents to your house. You can spend some time with your daughter, too."Serena nodded, then exited the office, followed closely by Esmond and Jean.Meanwhile, back at the Shaw family villa, Bram was stewing in anger. He could not shake off the feeling of indignation. Nobody in Folksworth had ever dared disregard him like this. Finally, he turned to Amos and ordered, "Prepare the car. We're paying Cyano Peak a visit."Amos had been waiting and promptly complied. Upon leaving Silas behind to keep an eye on the house, Bram and Amos departed Folksworth under the cover of night.Cyano Peak, one of the long-standing kickboxing circles with a history spanning centuries, held substantial influence in Folksworth and even

At that moment, a disciple approached Valedi and whispered something in his ear."Oh? Invite them in immediately!" Valedi replied, standing up and addressing Hiram. "Apologies, Hiram. An old friend has arrived unexpectedly. I'll be back shortly."Valedi headed toward the entrance, where he was met by a disheveled and sobbing Bram, who was crying as if he had suffered unimaginable injustice.Valedi frowned as he approached to support him. "Bram, what's going on?""Valedi, my family—the Shaw family—is being oppressed to the point of ruin! They've demanded we hand over all our assets by sunset tomorrow, or they'll wipe us! I had no choice but to come here, to beg for your help!" Bram's sorrowful cries echoed through the courtyard, even drawing the attention of Cyano Peak disciples, who glanced sympathetically at him.Valedi's expression grew more serious. "Bram, what's truly going on here? Surely no one would demand your assets without cause?"He signaled two disciples to escort Bra
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2145
As the saying went, "It’s not about finding good fortune, but about finding good people." Hiram was an impulsive and headstrong individual, and Valedi’s greatest worry was that Hiram would get involved. Unfortunately, the more he worried about something, the more likely it seemed to happen."Master Hiram, please calm down," Valedi said, trying to pacify him. "Xayne was once the King of the North—would he really conduct himself like this? Bram, is there anything you might have left out?"Bram's heart skipped a beat. He had indeed intentionally hidden from Valedi the fact that he and his brother, along with a coalition of over a hundred pharmaceutical companies, had cut ties with Serena Group. With Valedi’s piercing gaze fixed on him, Bram had no choice but to confess everything.When he finished, Valedi shot a sharp glance at Amos and scolded him, "Amos, how foolish can you be? The Shaw family is just a family of merchants! Merchants should stick to commerce! How could you meddle i

Hiram believed this alliance was essential for the future growth of Reikoten Circle. After all, he had succeeded where Iver had failed, and he was confident the Bullard family would recognize his value."Hmph! What is righteousness? In the world of kickboxing circles, strength is the only rule! Xayne may have friends, but we do, too. To my knowledge, you're on good terms with the circle leaders of DiFlores Circle and Heaven's Feather Circle Sect," Hiram continued. "If the four sects unite and pay him a visit, would he dare turn us down?"Upon hearing this, a glimmer of excitement appeared on Bram's face. He turned to Valedi eagerly. "Master Valedi, he's absolutely right! All it takes is one word from you.""With your reputation, combined with the presence of the four powerful circles, Xayne rejecting us would be like slapping us all in the face. Do you think he would dare to do that?" On the verge of desperation, Amos also pleaded, "Yes, Master Valedi, if you don't help our family,

Upon hearing this, Hiram frowned.He was about to step forward to intervene but was blocked by the stern hands of Master DiFlores Circle and Heaven's Feather Circle.With an air of superiority, they glanced coldly at Jean and sneered at Hiram. “Hiram, you’ve always been one to stay amiable, but sometimes, you have to consider who you’re dealing with!”Hiram felt torn. On one hand, he faced his sworn brother and close friend, but on the other, it was Xayne.Truth be told, he did not want to become Xayne’s enemy.But in front of everyone, he could not just disrespect the two masters of DiFlores Circle and Heaven's Feather Circle. He had to swallow his words.Jean shot a glance at Bram and spoke in a cold tone. “Mr. Bram, I advise you, don’t make a fool of yourself at your age.”With that, Jean gave Bram’s arm a sharp yank, forcing him to release his grip, then cast a cold glance over the crowd and strode into the Serena Group offices.Inside the office, Jean pondered for a moment

Indeed, at this moment, Xayne had to admit it. While the Christy family had fundamentally misunderstood the origins of formation techniques, their ability to wield them to such a degree was nothing short of extraordinary.No wonder the major organizations held such an ambiguous stance toward the Christy family. Even the Kickboxing Association treated them with near-reverence, like deities.Inside the mansion, the soft cry of a baby echoed once more."That's enough. Let's not disturb the child." Xayne's expression remained calm as he gazed at the swampy ground beneath his feet. His voice was steady, almost indifferent.The crowd froze, their eyes locking onto Xayne as if he were a lunatic.At this point, Xayne could barely move. And yet, he still dared to speak such bold words.'That's enough? Was he serious? Forget everything else—how was he planning to deal with those black vines?' Alfonso thought to himself.And Alfonso had already played all his cards. A seasoned powerhouse l

Divine's Trance was also a key ingredient in an ancient anesthetic once used by a legendary herbalist known as "Horace Med." The concoction was so potent that even Divine Commanders would succumb to its effects, which led to the name "Divine's Trance."Alfonso clenched his jaw, squinting his eyes as he glared at Xayne.From the sidelines, Madoc muttered, "Looks like Alfonso's in trouble this time. What are the odds of Xayne stumbling upon the drug's weakness like that?"Breaking the effects of Divine's Trance by luck. It was almost laughable how fortunate Xayne was. Had this battle taken place closer to dusk, Alfonso's plan might have succeeded flawlessly. But under the glaring midday sun, fate seemed to favor Xayne.At the start of this fight, Alfonso had been the clear favorite. But one twist after another turned the tide. First, Xayne dismantled Alfonso's "Heavenly Peak's Seven Sword." Now, the sunlight's interference rendered Divine's Trance useless.Even though the warriors o

At this moment, everyone suddenly realized the truth, this was the true power of the Christy family.The Christy family of Heavenly Peak had always been shrouded in mystery. No one knew how many secrets were hidden in the First Dragon's tomb.Alfonso, despite his seemingly grand presence, was merely a liaison for the Christy family, a small player tasked with managing external relations. And that fact was what made it terrifying.If someone so "insignificant" could employ such overwhelming formations, enough to leave Xayne completely helpless, the true strength of the Christy family might be unimaginable. Previously, Lyuben, representing Heavenly Peak, had battled Xayne in the Drakonix and the result was terrifying. Xayne barely had to break a sweat before defeating and killing Lyuben in front of everyone.But today, Alfonso had rendered Xayne defenseless. The key issue was that ever since the First Dragon was buried deep in history, all its powerful formations had been lost to tim

"Xayne, feeling numb all over yet?" Alfonso sneered, his voice dripping with triumph."I'll let you in on a little secret. This is the Christy family's unique Blood Acacia! Once it touches you, there's no escaping it. The more you struggle, the faster your strength fades!"Alfonso's expression grew more confident with every word. "The foundation of the Christy family isn't something a brat like you could ever comprehend. Still, you've truly surprised me. To push me to reveal this trump card at your age is no small feat!"He sighed mockingly, "Give you another ten years, perhaps I wouldn't be your match. But today? You're still too weak to go against me!"Standing with his hands clasped behind his back, Alfonso exuded a commanding aura, his demeanor now towering and unassailable. His gaze swept over the crowd, those who had just moments ago been prepared to bow before Xayne in submission. His lips curled into a disdainful smirk. "For decades, I, Alfonso, have dominated the world.

Seeing Xayne leap toward Alfonso, the latter retreating in obvious desperation, most spectators dismissed Madoc's earlier warning as unnecessary. A man on the verge of death couldn't cause any massive chaos.The crowd's focus shifted to Xayne. They were already planning how to bow to him in reverence after he killed Alfonso, hoping their submission would spare their families and circles from annihilation.But just as Xayne closed within five steps of Alfonso, an unexpected shift occurred. Alfonso's eyes suddenly gleamed with an intense light, and his body erupted with blood-red radiance."Let me show you the true foundation of the Christy family!" Alfonso shouted.The sight of the crimson light sent a chill through the crowd. Only now did Madoc's earlier words resurface in their minds, but it was already too late. From Alfonso's body, waves of scarlet light surged outward, radiating an unbearable heat.Xayne frowned slightly as he felt the scorching force. The crimson aura wasn't

Alfonso let out a roar of fury, raising his Seven Death Star Sword and slashing toward Xayne."Xayne, you may be formidable, but you will never kill me! I am Alfonso! I am the true Divine Commander among the Divine Commanders!" His voice thundered across the battlefield, his words carrying an unyielding arrogance.This strike was unlike any before. It bore no dazzling light, no blinding sword aura, just a simple, slash. Yet, within its simplicity lay an incomprehensible force, an extraordinary power Alfonso himself had never wielded before.For the first time, he wasn't relying on the Christy family's formations. This was his power."Ah, it seems you've finally begun to realize something," Xayne said, his lips curling into a faint smile.The astonishment in Alfonso's eyes betrayed his realization: the notion of "man triumphing over heaven" was no longer an abstract concept but something tangible. But he would never truly grasp its essence.The Scarlet Dragon Lance in Xayne's hand

Xayne's grip faltered, and the Scarlet Dragon Lance fell to the ground with a resounding metallic thud."Xayne, how does it feel now? Still think the Christy family misunderstood the formation?" Alfonso burst into laughter, his confidence soaring.In his eyes, Xayne was already a defeated, frail old man. Even the weapon in his hand had betrayed him, falling uselessly to the ground. Such a decrepit figure could not pose any threat. Yet just as everyone assumed Xayne's demise was certain, he took a step forward.The moment his foot touched the ground, the world changed. The crimson sun that had dominated the sky began its descent. Scarlet rays dimmed, replaced by the soft glow of twilight. Stars emerged, shimmering in a deep blue sky, and a brilliant full moon rose overhead, bathing the earth in silver light."Time doesn't flow because of your formation, Alfonso. What you create is nothing more than a powerful illusion. The brilliance of the Christy family's formations lies in their

The Wyncock disciple's trembling voice echoed, his weathered hands shaking as he stared at the elder before him.A mere youth in his twenties, he now bore the visage of an elderly man, his hands calloused, his face etched with wrinkles. His master, barely able to lift his eyelids, cast him a helpless glance before sighing deeply.Alfonso stood proudly, his hands clasped behind his back. Despite the bruises on his face left by Xayne, his demeanor remained arrogant. "Xayne, now do you understand? Time itself is the ultimate weapon. Since my debut, I've never used such a profound formation. You should feel honored. It's a first, just for you!"Alfonso's voice dripped with disdain as he continued, "Since you're about to die, let me unravel the mystery for you. Have you ever wondered why Drakonia has so few Divine Commanders?"The crowd fell silent, the air thick with unease. Alfonso's words struck a nerve. For centuries, Drakonia had produced countless powerful warriors, including Radi

The crimson sunlight bathed everyone in its eerie glow, aging them by more than a decade in an instant.No one understood what kind of formation this was. Everyone's hearts trembled with fear and disbelief. Even Xayne was not spared. Threads of white hair appeared on his head, and his aging progressed far faster than anyone else's.Watching Xayne wither before his eyes, Alfonso erupted into wild laughter. "Xayne, do you see now? I don't even need my sword to kill you! The Three Absolutes Formation is far beyond your comprehension! Let me enlighten you, this is the Earth's Absolute Formation!"Gasps rippled through the crowd as they absorbed Alfonso's revelation. The Earth's Absolute Formation could accelerate aging at such an incredible rate.Xayne, his face lined with wrinkles and his voice now hoarse and brittle, slowly raised his head. "According to the Christy family's interpretation, the Heaven Absolute Formation stirs storms and commands the wrath of the skies. The Earth's Ab
