Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 223
Xayne glanced at the terrified Scorpion and his thugs, then smiled nervously, explaining, “It’s no big deal. He’s just an old acquaintance. I’ll take care of it.”He urged Serena into the car and said, “You two hop in.”He gently pushed Serena into the car, frowned, and turned to glare at Scorpion. Xayne stated, "I'll drop off my wife first and leave an address. I'll be at your place shortly."Scorpion and his thugs nodded vigorously. They respectfully replied, "Yes, Mr. Xayne. Take your time."Scorpion waved his henchmen to form a line along the road, saluting as Xayne drove past them. The former only dared to sigh in relief when the car’s tail lights disappeared from his sight.One of the henchmen, who had not recognized Xayne, asked with evident confusion, "Boss, what do we do now? Wasn't this a million-dollar job?"Whack!Scorpion turned and slapped the questioning thug. “What do we do?! Are you willing to die for that million dollars? Even the Grim Reaper bows to that man.”

This scene sent shivers down the spines of the bar's patrons, who quickly moved out of the way.Xayne sat in a private room with a calm expression. He turned to Scorpion, standing before him, and said, "Call Zachary and tell him you've captured me. Get him to come here."Scorpion called Zachary and pretended to be smug, saying, "Zachary, my man. I've caught the person you wanted. Will you handle it yourself, or should I take care of it?"Meanwhile, Zachary held two alluring women in his arms at a nightclub with friends. "Great, I'm on my way! Scorpion, you make sure to keep him intact for me."Zachary was elated as he hung up the phone and laughed with his friends. "Hahaha! Scorpion has captured that miserable bastard. I'm heading there now. I'll record a video of him begging for mercy. You guys will love it."He left the nightclub in his Porsche and drove at breakneck speed until he reached Starlight Bar. When he went to the third floor, he burst through the door with a smile, sh

Xayne shook his head and glanced at Scorpion. The latter understood Xayne’s glance and rolled up his sleeves before signaling a few men to surround Zachary."W- What are you guys doing? No, don't even lay a finger on me. I'm the heir to the Hyger family, damn it. If my dad finds out how you're treating me, he won't spare any of you. Ah, that hurts! N-Not the face!"Zachary tried to threaten them, but his threats did not take long to turn into cries for mercy. After a few minutes, he lay on the ground, his face covered in blood. He mustered the strength to utter, "X-Xayne, I will never... never let this go..."Xayne approached Zachary, crouched, and warned, "Let me warn you just this once. Don't even think of getting close to my wife. If there's a next time, it won't end this quickly."With that said, Xayne got up and left. If Scorpion were wise enough, he would handle the remaining matters appropriately.When Xayne left, the thugs carried Zachary out of the bar. Simultaneously, Sc

"Dad, you must make him apologize to me! Otherwise, I can’t bear to show my face in public." Zachary added fuel to the fire.His words made Rose anxious, and she exclaimed, "Honey, why don't you go now?! Are you going to watch our son live in pain?"Vincent shook his head and said, "Don't worry. I'll visit the Swifts tomorrow and demand an explanation."The following day, Vincent drove his Maybach from the Hyger Group to the Swift Group with over a dozen Mercedes-Benz cars in tow.Soon after, chaos reigned within the Swift Group. The staff nervously sat in the conference room, engaged in heated arguments."This is a disaster! The Hygers are coming with full force. Mr. Eric, what should we do?"“It’s all that damn Xayne’s fault! He instigated an attack on Zachary. What a foolish thing to do.""Where are Xayne and the others? Why haven't they arrived yet?"The group argued as Eric sat in the chairman's seat. He had received a call from Vincent early in the morning. The latter rec

Serena’s unexpected reaction shocked Xayne. He was at a loss for words as he looked at her tear-stained face.'Did I make a mistake?’Serena wiped her tears, and her eyes showed a hint of disappointment. She turned to Eric and apologized, "Grandpa, Xayne was wrong, but he did it because of me. If you're going to punish him, punish me too."Xayne’s heart skipped a beat when he heard her words. He knew he still held a significant place in her heart, or she would not have defended him. He smiled when he realized it.However, Eric scolded her instead, "If punishing you could solve anything, would I need to wait for you to speak up? The Hygers only want that bastard. He caused this mess, so let him resolve it.”The other Swift family members agreed with the older man. Sophia was the harshest among them as she crossed her arms and said, “Take a good look at yourself, Serena. Do you know how much trouble you’ve brought us and our company since you returned?“It’s also that good-for-noth
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 228
However, Xayne shocked everyone with his words. He calmly stated, "I don't think he can handle me kneeling and apologizing to him."Everyone gasped at his boldness.Someone exclaimed, "That’s outrageous! How dare you be so arrogant? Are you trying to drag our family down?" "He's an idiot for acting so recklessly in front of the Hygers’ patriarch!""What a moron! He's digging his own grave!"Members of the Swift family began to criticize Xayne. Pale with anger, Eric glared at Xayne before apologizing to Vincent. "I'm sorry, sir. He just returned, and his temper…"Eric trailed off, worried.Even Vincent’s secretary and guards glared at Xayne. “How dare speak that way to Mr. Vincent?! You need to kneel and beg for his forgiveness.”However, Xayne raised an eyebrow and stared at the secretary, asking, “What’s your name?”The secretary felt confident as he stood beside Vincent. He replied, “I’m Elliot Guard, Mr. Vincent’s secretary. What’s it to you? Do you want to beat me up? Kno

Soon, Vincent and the others arrived at the hospital. As they approached the entrance, he noticed something was amiss. He saw two armored vehicles and a squad of soldiers in uniform. They were fully armed and stood on alert.The soldiers even inspected all incoming and outgoing vehicles. They lined each side of the streets, looking stern and vigilant as they executed their duties.Vincent frowned and felt uneasy, asking, “Elliot, why are so many soldiers here? Did someone important come to the hospital?”Elliot was in the front passenger seat, looking nervous. “I don’t know either, sir. Everything seemed fine when we left. All this is quite sudden.”Meanwhile, Xayne remained calm with his arms crossed in the backseat. He remarked, “They’re here on my orders.”Vincent and Elliot turned to look at Xayne with surprise and confusion. Elliot sneered and mocked, “Do you think you can lie your way out of this, kid? Who do you think you are? I know you’re from the disgraced Xavier family.

‘H-How’s that possible? Xayne's a friend of Lieutenant Linford?!'Vincent trembled as he looked at Xayne with doubt and shock, asking, "Are you really a friend of Lieutenant Linford?"Xayne neither confirmed nor denied it. Instead, he calmly inquired, “Mr. Vincent, didn’t you want me to apologize to your son? Let’s go.”Boom!To Vincent, those words were a clear warning. He knew he could not make Xayne beg for forgiveness because it meant offending Lieutenant Linford and the Venzor Military Headquarters.Thud!Vincent fell to his knees and trembled, saying, “Mr. Xayne, you must be joking. I wouldn’t dare make you do such a thing. You’re a friend to Lieutenant Linford, my family’s most distinguished guests. You taught my unruly son a valuable lesson. We should be the ones begging for your forgiveness.”Elliot saw his boss kneeling and followed suit. He trembled when he recalled how he had treated Xayne at the Swift Group.At that moment, Xayne glared at Elliot and asked, "Mr. El

"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
Chapter 2686
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
