Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2658
For Andrea, this decision was equivalent to severing ties with the great families of Eukrania—perhaps even facing exile from the Keil family itself. But no matter how much he tried to convince himself, he simply could not act. Xayne was nothing like he had been on the open sea. Many of the terrifying techniques Andrea had personally witnessed back then had yet to be used.He refused to believe that Xayne had been truly cornered. Even though he could not understand why Xayne was not fighting back, he knew Xayne's true power was beyond imagination—especially that mysterious golden barrier. It had the power to block almost any attack in existence. If Xayne truly wished to, he would not need to endure this siege at all."Andrea! If you don't act today, you'll be the greatest traitor in Eukrania!" Arthura roared.Andrea clenched his jaw, closing his eyes momentarily. But even then, he could not bring himself to move. Even if it meant being branded a traitor, he would not take that risk.As
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2659
Xayne had been using them to test his formations. A mere Senior Radiant Commander had toyed with four Bi-Radiant Commanders as if they were nothing more than training dummies. It was the ultimate insult—especially for Alovandrio. In his thousand-year reign, not a single soul had ever dared to treat him as mere practice during a battle. Yet before thousands of witnesses, Xayne had humiliated him without hesitation."So, that's all you've got? Now… it's my turn." Xayne clasped his hands behind his back, his tone calm and utterly arrogant.Andrea felt cold sweat trickle down his spine. Thank the heavens he had not interfered. If he had, he would already be dead. Xayne was no saint.The battlefield fell into an eerie silence. Arthura hesitated, his thoughts in turmoil. 'Xayne… hadn't even been injured? Since when had a Senior Radiant Commander become this powerful?' He and three other Bi-Radiant Commanders had used every technique at their disposal, yet they had failed to even scratch t

Arthura watched in horror as the Ravenclaw Dagger shot toward his chest. Desperate, he raised the Sword of Victory to block the attack. But in the next instant, the dagger pierced straight through Excalibur, continuing unhindered as it stabbed deep into his chest. His eyes widened in shock."T-This… you… how do you have the power of a Tri-Radiant Commander?!" Even in death, Arthura could not comprehend what had just happened. Xayne was clearly only a Senior Radiant Commander. It was impossible for his strength to suddenly leap by two whole levels.Xayne's cold voice rang out. "You don't need to know."The Ravenclaw Dagger spun in mid-air, then shot forward again, piercing Arthura's back. In an instant, his body exploded into a mist of blood, vanishing into the wind. Even his holy armor shattered into countless fragments, scattering through the sky. Four Radiant Commander powerhouses, the strongest warriors of Eukrania, were all eradicated within mere seconds.The crowd below fell to t

A few nobles even ripped off the silver spear emblem symbolizing Alovandrio's authority and stomped it into the ground. "Xayne, you can't kill me! I represent the Saxon tribe in Eukrania! If you kill me, they won't let you walk away from this!" As soon as Alovandrio said this, every Eukranian noble in the room snapped their heads up, their eyes burning with hatred as they glared at him. Over a thousand years ago, the Saxons brought devastation to all of Eukrania. Those beasts who walked on two legs didn't spare children; wherever they went, they left nothing but scorched earth and blood. It wasn't until the rise of the Frannon King that the Saxons were finally driven out of Eukrania. "Kill him!" "End him!" "This bastard!" Angry shouts erupted from the crowd below. It wasn’t just Alovandrio’s identity that enraged them—it was the crushing realization that for over a thousand years, Eukrania, once proud of its so-called superior civilization and intellect, had unknowin
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 2662
That jarring voice instantly drew the attention of tens of thousands of people. Xayne had just slain four of Eukrania's top warriors. Anyone in their right mind wouldn't dare talk back to him now unless they were tired of being alive. At the foot of the mountain, a group of young men and women strolled arrogantly through the kneeling nobles. Their extravagant presence stood out even more against the humbled crowd around them. Xayne's gaze turned cold as he looked at the young man leading the group. He let out a mocking chuckle. The young man scoffed, his voice laced with contempt. "Xayne, don't think that being a Radiant Commander makes you invincible. Compared to the real powers in the outer battlegrounds, you're nothing." His gaze darkened as he took a step forward. "The man you just killed was the Saxon envoy for the higher forces in the outer battlegrounds. Do you have any idea what you've just done?"He let out a sharp breath, his frustration evident. "The warriors of Drakoni

Kaleo sneered, his voice laced with condescension. "Mr. Andrea, this is an internal matter of Drakonia. I don't think you need to interfere, do you?" He had intended to invoke his father's name—Killian—to establish some rapport with Andrea, hoping to sway him with authority and lineage.But before he could utter another word, a sharp crack split the air. A loud slap echoed through the valley, silencing everything in its wake. Kaleo never expected Andrea to strike so swiftly or with such ruthless force. His body was flung backward, three teeth scattering like shattered pearls before he crashed to the ground in a graceless heap.Despite his arrogance, he wasn't a nobody, he was still the heir of an outer battleground powerhouse. For an ordinary Tri-Divine Commander, a slap like that would have completely deformed their face. But Kaleo only suffered surface wounds. His pride, however, took the deepest cut. Gritting his teeth, he staggered to his feet, rage burning in his eyes as he gla

Andrea's eyes burned with killing intent so tangible, that it sent a shiver down Kaleo's spine. Before Kaleo could utter a word, Andrea's palm swept out like a storm, and the seductive woman clinging to Kaleo exploded into a mist of blood. The rest of Kaleo's followers screamed in terror, their arrogance vanishing instantly. They dropped to their knees one by one, shaking like leaves in the wind. Kaleo's face turned ghostly pale. His beloved woman had just been erased from existence before his eyes. Fear flooded his veins, cold sweat pouring down his back. "Okay! I'll kneel!" He frantically nodded, his pride shattered. With a loud thud, he dropped to his knees before Xayne. But even as he knelt, his voice trembled with resentment. "Xayne, do you dare accept my kneeling?" Even now, he couldn't fully accept his defeat. "Why wouldn't I?" Xayne's gaze was icy and indifferent, as if Kaleo was nothing but an insignificant ant. To someone like Xayne, Kaleo wasn't even worth co

Meanwhile, the Alphar family had already received word from Andrea. Their entourage was assembled at the castle's entrance, awaiting Xayne's arrival. Merlin Alphar stood at the door with practiced formality, his gaze locked onto a sleek black Ror-Rois pulling up to the driveway. As Andrea and Xayne stepped out of the car together, Merlin quickly greeted them. "Mr. Xayne, Mr. Andrea, welcome. I am this generation's family head, Merlin Alphar. We are honored to have you!" With that, he gave a formal bow, a nod to his noble lineage. "Your name is Merlin? Your family's naming structure feels similar to how we do it in Drakonia." Xayne cast him a glance as they walked toward the castle."Mr. Xayne, our lineage traces back to Octavor, the king of ancient Rameo," Merlin explained with a composed smile. "Back then, Eukranian surnames followed the same order as those in your homeland. It was only after the empire fell to the barbarian tribe—who originally had no structured naming system—

"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
