Chapter 229
Author: Blanco Burn
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

    Vincent nearly fell to the ground again when he heard his wife’s words. Thankfully, Elliot quickly steadied him.Rose was somewhat puzzled when she saw that. She frowned and asked, “What’s wrong with you? Why are you sweating so much? Are you sick or something?”Vincent panicked, his face paled as he explained, “Honey, please don’t be so disrespectful to Mr. Xayne. He’s—”“He’s what?!” Rose interrupted. “Why’d you address him that way?! He’s the one who got our son beat up. What are you even doing? I told you to bring him here to apologize, not treat him with respect.”The more she looked at her husband, the more she realized how spineless he was.'Why’s he always so timid and hesitant?'Rose turned to Xayne with frustration and said, “How dare you get people to beat up my son?! I’ll teach you a lesson, you scoundrel!”She motioned to slap Xayne, but the terrified Vincent pulled her away in time. Then, he slapped her instead. The smack echoed throughout the hospital entrance, ca

    “Damn it! I was terrified for no reason.” Vincent slapped himself to return to his senses. He then glared at Xayne.‘I’ve been too spineless! I can’t believe I kneeled and begged for this guy’s mercy. How humiliating.’“Kid, I no longer care if you’re Lieutenant Linford’s friend. My wife’s brother is Raymond Butler, Venzor Military Headquarters’s strategist! You must apologize to my son. We’ll also settle the score for the humiliation you caused earlier.”Vincent straightened his posture and glared at the surrounding officers. He shouted, “Did you hear who my brother-in-law is?! Whose orders will you follow now?”The officers were shocked when they heard Raymond’s name. They were unaware of Xayne’s true identity, so they were confused and did not know what to do. Raymond held a high rank in their eyes. He was someone they could not afford to offend."Mr. Xayne, that’s..." the squad leader addressed Xayne, his expression showing evident hesitation.Xayne understood the situation.

    Raymond grabbed his military cap from a nearby stand and exited the compound, saying, “Gather a platoon and get them ready to move with me!”A platoon of soldiers quickly assembled and armed themselves. Each looked stern and solemn as they gathered.Raymond glanced over them and adjusted his cap. With a wave, he got into a military jeep bearing the Venzor Military Headquarters license plate and sped toward the hospital.Meanwhile, Rose and Vincent glared at Xayne at the hospital entrance. Rose taunted, "Aren’t you that loser from the Xavier family? I heard our son's been pursuing your wife recently. Frankly, I'm not thrilled about it. "What does someone like you have to offer to our family? After all, you embarrassed yourself before the entire town five years ago and fathered a bastard child. I would have intervened long ago if it weren't for our son's curiosity."Don't worry. Zach is just looking for some excitement. He'll discard her in a few days. How do you feel as a loser wh

    Several soldiers approached Xayne as one said, “Let’s go.”However, Xayne pulled a golden medal from his pocket and tossed it to one of the soldiers, saying, “Tell your Commander to come to me himself.”The soldier caught the medal and glanced at it, freezing in place when he recognized it. The medal was a Special Class Meritorious Service Medal awarded to Xayne by the Drakonian council.The medal was worth more than an elite division. It represented the highest honor any soldier could achieve in the country. Only those who had given their lives for their country could receive such a thing. Yet it was in the hands of a living person.The soldier wasted no time and sprinted toward Raymond. The former stood at attention and saluted, stating, “Commander Raymond, this is…”Raymond was puzzled. All he knew was that the soldier did not bring Xayne to him. Raymond snapped, "What is it?! I told you to bring him to me. Do I have to do everything myself?"The soldier was sweating as he han

    However, something surprising happened a moment later. Raymond slapped and scolded his sister, “Do you even know who you’re dealing with?! How dare you make such demands toward the King of the North? Have you lost your mind?”Rose was dumbfounded as she held her swollen cheek. She stared at her brother in disbelief, asking, “Why’d you hit me? I’m your sister, but you hit me over that worthless scumbag?”Her frustration grew because she had gotten slapped three times already.Vincent approached them and said, “Raymond, what are you doing? You should be reprimanding Xayne for what he did.”Smack! Raymond slapped Vincent, too, but harder this time. The slap left Vincent seeing stars as he struggled to regain his composure.Raymond’s demeanor was frigid as he yelled at Rose and Vincent, “You two are out of line! That ‘scumbag’ you’re referring to is the Hero of the Nation and the King of the North!”His words shocked the couple, and their visions blurred.“H-He’s the King of the N

    However, Xayne directed his following words at Rose, “What about your demands just now? Do you still want to slap me around?”Rose was shocked before finally realizing his implication. She slapped herself and cried, “I’ll do it myself!”She slapped herself ten times, leaving it red and swollen.Then, Xayne said, "Come with me. Let's see your son."Vincent and Rose panicked, fearing Xayne had some sinister intentions. They begged desperately, "Sir, our son acted foolishly. Our family will do whatever you want. Please don't harm our son."Xayne remained silent and entered the hospital.Vincent and Rose could only get up and follow closely behind, their hearts pounding.Soon, they arrived at the ward, and Vincent opened the door. The group saw Zachary sitting on the bed, seemingly unharmed, and flirting with a nurse.Upon seeing Vincent and the others, Zachary pushed the nurse aside and pretended to be in pain, lying down and wailing, "Mom, Dad, you're finally back. If you don't b

    Xayne nodded, making Zachary kneel as sweat dripped from his forehead.Thud! He trembled as he bowed and begged, “S-Sir, please spare me! I was wrong. I won’t dare do it again.”“Sir, please spare my son and our family. We’ll serve you faithfully and do anything you need,” Vincent pleaded, also bowing.Meanwhile, Rose looked at her brother and said, “Raymond, say something.”Raymond ignored her unwillingly and asked Xayne, “Sir, could you let them go for my sake? They’ve learned their lesson and won’t do anything to undermine you in the future. If they misbehave again, I’ll execute them.”Xayne looked at him and then gazed at the trio. He said, “Do you know what you should do, Zachary?”Zachary hastily nodded, saying, "I understand, sir. I won't bother Serena again."Xayne scoffed and said to Raymond, "Handle this and remember what you said earlier."Soon after, the former left the hospital, not resorting to bloodshed. After all, Xayne was not a bloodthirsty person.‘Some pe

    "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

    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

    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
