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

    The receptionist at the Swift Group ran to inform Eric and the others that Xayne had returned unharmed. They even sent a message in the company’s group chat.Eric was shocked as he sat in the chairman’s office. He repeated, “Xayne returned unharmed?”Meanwhile, Serena had spent all day at the office. However, her mind was elsewhere as she worried about Xayne. When she heard about his return, she abandoned her work and rushed to the lobby.She sprinted toward him as tears streamed down her face. She wrapped her arms around him, exclaiming, “You’re back! I was so worried about you!”Xayne stood there, not expecting Serena to be so concerned about him after such a short absence. He felt her warmth and embraced her. “It’s okay. I’m back now.”Serena finally let go, and he wiped her tears, smiling. “Look at you, crying like a baby.”Blushing, Serena lowered her head, saying, "No, I wasn’t."Then, she nervously asked, "How’d you get back? Didn't the Hygers’ patriarch take you away? Di

    The Swifts were still processing what happened when Zachary kneeled before Xayne and Serana. He pleaded, “I-I’m sorry, Mr. and Mrs. Xavier. I was reckless and made a mistake by ordering someone to kidnap you. Please forgive me.”Vincent smiled at Xayne, praising him, “Mr. Xayne, these are my apology gifts to you. I hope you’ll accept them and not hold any grudges against my son for his mistakes.”His bodyguards opened the boxes to reveal cash and precious jewelry. Everyone in the lobby was shocked by what they saw. Most gasped as they struggled to understand the situation.‘Why would Mr. Vincent bring his son to apologize to someone like Xayne? I wonder what happened between them.’The people knew Vincent as being protective of his son, and Zachary had always been arrogant and unapologetic for his actions. No one expected them to behave so humbly.Soon, everyone turned their attention to Xayne. Serena glanced at him with puzzlement and hesitation, wanting to say something but hold

    Deanana glanced at Xayne as she coyly smiled. "Mr. Xayne, no need to be so reserved with me. After all, I used to be one of your admirers. I always thought you were an extraordinary man."Although it seems I misjudged you, still, you were a part of my girlish dreams. Don't let your current misfortunes bother you too much. People say a fallen phoenix is worse than a chicken, and while that's true, I happen to have a kind heart."Her words, though laced with laughter, were razor-sharp. Each one was a jab meant to cut deep.Her meaning was clear: "You might have been a shining star once, but now, you're nothing in my eyes—not even worth a second glance." Helping Xayne get his luggage was just an act, nothing more."Mr. Xayne, do you remember? Just a few years ago, at this very airport, you were returning from... oh yes, the Seven Nations Summit!"You know, I waited at the airport entrance for over four hours that morning just to get your autograph. But sadly, your security team didn'

    "Heh, Miss Deanana, you also know that's all in the past. Even if he were still the King of the North, we live in peaceful times now. No one gets special privileges, right?" Dean chimed in smoothly, his tone laced with mockery."Dean! Do you even realize what you're doing?!" Aava could not hold back any longer, her eyes glaring fiercely as she clenched her fists in anger."Of course, I know what I'm doing, and I know neither of you are ordinary people. Thinking about hitting me? Don't forget, there are plenty of reporters over there. If you dare lay a hand on me, I'll make sure Xayne's reputation is ruined," Dean replied smugly.Dean's sneer widened into a wicked grin, the confidence radiating from him undeniable."Manager Dean, how about this? To be honest, I used to admire Mr. Xayne. Why don't you do me a favor and return his belongings? It would be a great gesture," Deanana interjected with a gentle smile.Upon hearing this, Aava bristled with fury. She knew Deanana was up to s

    Dean's wild provocations quickly drew a crowd of onlookers.At that moment, a striking young woman stepped forward, removing her sunglasses as she made her way through the throng.The woman was dressed in an elegant black gown, the hemline revealing a pair of flawless, slender legs that caught everyone's attention. Her expression, however, was haughty, as though she looked down on everyone around her.She was Deanana Lovorka, the heiress of the Lovorka family conglomerate. While not exactly a household name, she was considered a minor socialite in the upper circles of Drakonix."Manager Dean, it's been a while!" Deanana greeted casually.As someone who frequently traveled abroad for business, Deanana was a familiar face at the airport and she had crossed paths with Dean on several occasions.But she was not here for a casual chat with Dean. It was far from it.She had come specifically to see Xayne.This was, after all, the legendary King of the North. Just six months ago, he w

    "Do you have any idea whose luggage this is?" Aava asked coldly with a sharp and commanding tone.She was on the verge of revealing her special credentials—something she rarely used unless absolutely necessary. Xayne had been her hero, someone she deeply admired. The ridicule from Miodrag moments earlier had already pushed her to the edge, and now even a low-level airport staffer dared to humiliate him."Of course, I knew. Xayne, the King of the North six months ago; now he's just a regular civilian," the staffer replied with icy indifference. The staffer smirked. "Miss, do you think Xayne is still the mighty King of the North? There's no war, the capital isn't under siege, and he's utterly useless now. Take my advice—someone young and beautiful like you should stay far away from trash like Xayne. Get closer to someone like Young Master Dongfang instead. It'll do wonders for your future!"Dean swaggered over, cigarette dangling from his mouth, hands clasped behind his back. His ex

    Upon hearing those words, both Xayne and Aava paused in surprise, then frowned in unison.The VIP lounge was clearly still operating as usual. Inside, over twenty people were relaxing—some reading newspapers and sipping coffee. There was no sign of any "closure" or "disinfection."It was obvious that this so-called announcement was deliberately targeting Xayne and Aava."Manager Li, isn't this going a bit too far? That's Xayne—formerly the King of the North. He has special privileges to use the VIP lounge. If this gets reported to higher-ups, we could all be in trouble…," whispered one of the airport staff, cautiously approaching Dean."Higher-ups? Haven't you heard? Young Master Lyuben already gave the order—anyone who sides with Xayne will see their entire family wiped out." Dean sneered, exhaling a cloud of smoke as he lit a cigarette."And even if the higher-ups find out, what can they do?" Dean added mockingly. "I'll admit, six months ago, I wouldn't have dared cross Xayne. B

    Miodrag's laughter quickly caught the attention of onlookers in the bustling terminal. But their gazes were fixed not on him but on Xayne.The "King of the North" was a name nearly everyone recognized, yet no one dared approach him. Lyuben's warning had spread far and wide: anyone who got close to Xayne would face annihilation."Miodrag! What gives you the right to mock Mr. Xayne? Just hours ago, he was fighting on the front lines for this country. And you? What have you done besides indulge yourself in luxury?" Aava snapped with a sharp and clear voice."Heh, I pay taxes, don't I? Doesn't spending money generate tax revenue? Without people like me keeping the economy alive, what would Xayne have eaten in the north? Dirt?" Miodrag smirked, his tone dripping with mockery. He sneered and continued, "If not for us rich kids throwing around millions in donations every day, Xayne wouldn't even have warm dirt to eat!""Damn it! The nerve of that guy!""What's so special about the East

    "Is it true that Xayne captured the so-called 'Lord of Light' alive?" Lyuben remained calm as he was playing a grand piano in the lounge."Indeed! Word is, the Lord of Light's master, Master Emin, was present as well. However, Xander also made an appearance. My analysis suggests it was Xander who forced Master Emin to retreat, while Xayne crippled the Lord of Light." An older man lowered his head respectfully as he spoke, his voice tinged with urgency."Oh? Defeating the Lord of Light… he must have had a trick up his sleeve. Was it some kind of tactic or setup?" Lyuben asked without betraying a hint of emotion."It's said that Xayne specializes in traps and ambushes. Otherwise, Hiram and his crew wouldn't have met their end in that mansion. Master Dongfang, you mustn't underestimate him!""Hmm?!" Lyuben's eyes shot open suddenly, piercing beams of icy resolve radiating toward the older man.The man immediately lowered his head further, not daring to meet the gaze of the young lead

    "Lowes, what are you panicking for?" Zoro's cold gaze locked onto Lowes.Even though Lowes was several generations younger than him, as the head of the Bullard family, he had the status to stand on equal footing with Zoro."I'm not panicking, I just don't want to see more white funeral banners hanging at the Bullard family estate. If Xayne comes back and chooses to settle the score, do you think any of us can handle it? You might not know this, but back when King Quidie rebelled, even Klink didn't dare lay a hand on him," Lowes replied, his voice strained but steady.He paused, taking a long, slow breath to calm himself. "Put it another way, if Xayne comes for us, even KB Kings Circle won't step in to save us. If that doesn't scare you, then I don't know what will!"The air in the room grew colder. Lowes glanced around at the faces of the other family heads, hoping to see reason in their eyes. But then came a sneer.Zoro let out a low, disdainful chuckle. "Even if Xayne didn't die

    "Xayne!" Zoro clenched his fists so tightly. If anyone had a grudge against Xayne, the Eastin family's hatred was no less than that of the Bullard family. Not to mention, Flamey had been killed by Xayne not long ago. This blood feud had to be settled.The Big Four weren't some weak, defenseless prey that Xayne could toy with as he pleased. For decades, the Big Four had controlled the heart of the Drakonia's economy. Every senator, governor, and political figure had to show them respect. But since Iver's death, the Big Four had lost their glow. People who once bowed their heads were now looking down on them. The root of all this was because of Xayne.That's why, after Flamey's death, the Eastin family had no choice but to call upon their master, a man who had been living in seclusion for decades. Every bit of information regarding Xayne's trip to Egenda, his plans, his contacts, and even his flight schedule had been deliberately fed to Lord of Light.They made it clear that the momen
