Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2150
It was four against one, and Esmond was already severely injured."Sir, don’t!"With a firm yet gentle touch, Serena pressed down on Esmond’s sword and said in a low voice, "You at least owe us time to discuss this. How about you give us an answer by tomorrow at this time?"Upon seeing Serena’s tone softening, Valedi quickly stood up with a smug grin on his face. "Of course, of course. We’re reasonable people, after all. Just don’t let our patience go to waste, Ms. Serena."With that, he forcefully dragged Bram out of the conference room. Upon seeing Bram pulled along, Hiram and the others followed suit, though Hiram threw a lingering glance at Esmond on his way out.In that look, a faint murderous intent flickered.Only after they had left did Serena turn to Esmond. "Sir, you’re injured, and facing four enemies alone is suicide. We don’t need the Bram family’s assets if it means risking your life!"Upon hearing her words, Esmond was visibly moved. He looked at Serena for a long

"I'm out on business. What's up?" Xayne answered his phone, frowning.There was no doubt that something big had happened at home. Otherwise, with Esmond and Jean there to assist, Serena wouldn't have needed to call him."There's been some trouble at home, and I'm worried about the old man's safety. This morning…" Serena recounted the incident that had unfolded, telling Xayne every detail.As she finished, Xayne clenched his fists slightly."Honey, the old man thinks we can only resolve this through force, but he's already injured. How can we handle this? Maybe we should just back off from the Shaw family?" Serena's voice softened, sounding like she was asking for Xayne's opinion.Xayne shook his head gently. "At this point, we can't back down anymore. The Four Great Circles are involved. If we retreat, they'll just keep pushing us further! I'll figure something out. I'll get back to Folksworth by tonight. For now, just stay at the estate Jean set up. Don't worry about anything els

As Esmond finished speaking, he gestured for everyone to rise."Master!" The three disciples knelt before him, tears streaming down their faces, their foreheads pressed against the ground."Hurry," Esmond began, but before he could finish, the sound of a helicopter roared overhead.Moments later, a figure leapt down from the chopper."Mr. Xayne's back!" Esmond's disciples brightened instantly, wiping away their tears as they rushed toward the courtyard.Xayne noticed the traces of tears on their faces and frowned. "What's going on with you all?""It's nothing. It's just a relief to have you back, sir!" They greeted Xayne like he was the brightest star, ushering him into the estate with reverence.When Esmond saw Xayne, he bowed respectfully. "Master! Forgive my shortcomings for troubling you."He didn't need Xayne to say anything. He knew Serena must have called him. Otherwise, Xayne would never have returned so suddenly."Esmond, I've been informed of the situation in Folkswo
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2153
Esmond looked up at Xayne in astonishment.Throughout Drakonia's history, Wyncock had spoken of formations, yet such practices had mostly faded a thousand years ago. By now, across hundreds of circles, barely anyone still knew how to create one.Oddly enough, the Yin-Yang clan from Fusion had managed to preserve parts of the formation's essentials, even though they lacked its full essence.Xayne might have inherited a true mastery of formations. Seeing the flicker of doubt in Esmond's eyes, Xayne smiled calmly. "Formations aren't as mystical as they seem. You and I may both be Quad-Divine Commanders, but we're both injured.""We need a way to weaken the enemy's power as they enter this estate. This formation will do that and can even enhance your sword skills!" he continued.As Xayne spoke, he quickly gave Esmond a rough outline of his plan. They buried eleven swords in specific positions around the property, with a few additional adjustments for detail. As Xayne finished, Esmond

Finishing his explanation, Xayne closed his eyes slightly, sitting back on the sofa while waiting for nightfall. Meanwhile, Xayne's secret return to Folksworth remained unknown to Valedi and the others.On their way back, Valedi had repeatedly tried to convince the others to reconsider, but Hiram and the others dismissed his concerns outright.Esmond's weakened appearance only confirmed what they hoped: either he was carrying an injury or suffering a relapse of an old ailment. It was the perfect time to take him out.Even if Xayne returned, with Esmond dead, he couldn't do anything."Masters. I suggest we visit Esmond tonight." Hiram turned to the heads of Heaven's Feather Circle and Winslow Circle.By then, Valedi had already returned to Cyano Peak, leaving Hiram and the other two circle masters alone at the Shaw family estate. Bram's eyes brightened at the suggestion, and he looked at Hiram with admiration. "Hiram, you are the savior of the Shaw family. If you help us survive thi
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2155
Hiram pushed gently on the door at the estate's entrance.A squeaking sound resounded, and Hiram froze. That sound was the unmistakable groan of an old wooden door. However, the Xavier family's estate had a brand-new iron door, not wood. He frowned, but before he could dwell on it, Debryne and Harry arrived beside him."Hiram, is something wrong?" Debryne asked.Hiram shrugged off his unease, flashing a nonchalant smile. "Nothing, just curious that Xavier's estate doesn't have any guards. But it wouldn't make a difference even if they had hundreds."With that, he strode into the courtyard, followed closely by the other two. As their feet touched the stone tiles of the courtyard, a chilling breeze swept through, sending shivers down their spines."This place is off," muttered Harry. None of them could pinpoint why, but they sensed danger in the air. It was a tension so thick they could practically feel it clawing at them. Inside the estate, Xayne's eyes snapped open. He looked to

The moment Esmond's sword left its sheath, a palpable aura of killing intent filled the air. Hiram and his companions could feel the biting chill even standing several meters away."Damn!" Hiram frowned. Esmond's sword aura became so intense, and there was something odd about that sword."Who's coming first? Or will all three of you come at me together?" Esmond challenged, his voice dripping with disdain.Hiram barely had time to reply before Harry stepped forward eagerly. "Let me handle him first!"Harry had his hidden motives. He knew that between Xayne and Esmond, Xayne was the true threat. If he dealt with the injured Esmond first, it would leave Xayne to face Hiram and Debryne. Depending on how the fight went, he could either finish off Esmond or escape if things went south. An injured Esmond would never be able to keep up with him.Hiram and Debryne exchanged knowing glances but didn't object. They had no choice but to let him take the lead. "Be careful, Harry! If Xayne make
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2157
Realizing the grim situation, Hiram glanced back at the oil lamps, frowning. "Could this be some kind of formation?"The idea was hard for him to believe, and even Debryne shook his head in disbelief. Yet, if not for the formation, they couldn't find any other explanation for the eerie suppression of their powers.Esmond sneered at their hesitation. "Weren't you here to take our heads? How do you plan to collect them by standing so far back?"With that, he swung his sword, unleashing a flurry of sword shadows that closed in on them. Feeling the surge of killing intent, Hiram turned to flee, knowing his strength wasn't much better than Harry's. If Harry had died so swiftly, he'd likely share the same fate if he tried to fight.But what they didn't realize was that once inside Xayne's estate, leaving was nearly impossible. As Hiram neared the exit, Xayne sprang forward, moving with the speed and grace of a great eagle, and landed just behind him. He thrust his Ravenclaw Dagger straig

As Xayne's voice fell, the Crimson Dragon Lance trembled slightly in his hand.A line of blood arced through the air, spurting from the back of Alfonso's head.Alfonso was dead.The Grand Elder turned his head to glance at Alfonso's lifeless body, his eyes shutting tightly in resignation. This was it—the rift between the Emperor and the Five Great Mountains had been irrevocably formed.The Christy family would undoubtedly incite the Five Great Mountains to oppose Xayne, while the Emperor would never abandon Xayne. The hope for harmony between the two sides had now become nothing more than a wistful dream.Matthias and the others stared blankly at Alfonso's corpse. It took them a long moment to snap out of their daze, stepping forward hesitantly.At this point, they had completely lost the courage to stand against Xayne.In the past, they could rely on the powerful forces behind them. But now, even Alfonso—one of the most formidable Quin-Divine Commanders—had fallen to Xayne. The

"Alfonso's death may not necessarily be a loss for Drakonia. But with the Lord's strength advancing once again, I believe that within two years, the only one capable of stepping into the Radiant Commander will be none other than the Lord himself!" Esmond said calmly."To lose a Quin-Divine Commander yet gain a Radiant Commander—this is no loss for Drakonia," he continued. Yves silently nodded in agreement. Indeed, Alfonso was nearing a century in age, while Xayne was only in his early twenties. Compared to Alfonso, Xayne's potential was immeasurable."Alfonso, I had already warned you earlier—our Lord is far from simple!" Esmond sighed and lowered his head as he looked at the barely breathing Alfonso sprawled on the ground, feeling a pang of guilt.After all, Alfonso had been a benefactor to him. But now, Esmond dared not plead for Alfonso's life, and this reluctance filled him with shame.Without Alfonso, Esmond would never have comprehended the Heaven Sword Circle. Without Alfo

Xayne's figure flickered, vanishing in an instant. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Alfonso.Without hesitation, Xayne raised his hand and delivered a resounding slap. The force sent Alfonso hurtling through the air, soaring dozens of meters high. A spray of blood mist erupted as Alfonso crashed down."So-called 'Heaven's Absolute' is nothing more than a manipulation of intent to command all things," Xayne declared.Unbeknownst to anyone, Xayne had already set up the Ancestral Dragon Formation, but his version was unlike the one Alfonso had used.There were no ominous clouds, no visible phenomena. Yet, as soon as Xayne uttered the word "thunder," a bolt of lightning descended with earth-shaking force. Thousands of streaks of lightning intertwined in the sky, weaving a dazzling, electrified web."What… what is this?" Even Esmond and Yves were stunned. They had not noticed when Xayne had deployed the formation.And this formation—while bearing some resemblance to the Ch

Alfonso's eyes widened in fury, his gaze blazing with an intensity so fierce it seemed the flames in his pupils might leap out at any moment. There was no chance he would accept defeat. With a swift motion, he raised his hand, pointing to the sky.The winds roared, the clouds churned, and thunder boomed.From the ground, countless earthen spikes erupted, transforming the landscape into a deadly, shifting battlefield. It was as if the very fabric of the world itself bent to Alfonso's will.Even Matthias and the others could not suppress their gasps of shock. The scene before them was like the gaping maw of a primordial beast, ready to devour all life in an instant.Lightning danced across the sky, and the earth trembled beneath the storm's fury. The heavens unraveled in chaotic disarray, as a deafening crack of thunder shattered the air, followed by a torrential downpour.But this was no ordinary rain. Each droplet carried a strange, oppressive force, draining the strength of anyone cau

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
