The room was packed with local dignitaries and high-ranking officials from the war zone. Each held a significant position, capable of shaking Venzor’s foundations. Leslie Teel, the amusement park owner, felt out of place as he stood among them tremblingly.

He was terrified when he saw such influential figures treating the young man before them with the utmost respect. Xayne had sharp brows and profound eyes as he exuded an unparalleled authority.

He was the most crucial figure in the room. Just his presence could fill the entire room with tension.

Leslie knelt before Xayne, his head lowered as he said, "I-I'm Leslie Teel, the amusement park owner, sir. Please, tell me how I can help."

Leslie was scared and panicked. He had heard about the incident on his way here. He knew it was something his patrol team should have handled. However, Xayne had to deploy the Venzor military, various patrol bureaus, and even the Strategic Eagle Team.

Although the authorities had announced the lockdo

    Leslie’s heart pounded as he frantically nodded, saying, “Y-Yes, understood!”Harold returned to the conference room ten minutes later after his interrogations. He told Xayne, “Supreme Commander, I have the necessary information. Indeed, some of them know those two thugs. They’re regulars here, often extorting protection money, among other things.Xayne frowned and asked, "Who's pulling the strings?"Harold furrowed his brows, shaking his head. "That part isn't clear yet...""Find out! No matter who's involved or what influence is at play, you must get to the bottom of this!" Xayne roared, the fire within him burning even hotter.Meanwhile, a deserted auto repair shop stood in an abandoned industrial area in Venzor’s western district. A black van sped down the rough cement road. It plowed through the tall grass and stopped at the abandoned shop’s entrance.The back of the van kicked up a cloud of dust as it stopped. The doors swung open, and two young men hopped out. They surveye

    The wild dog lunged at Coco, its mouth agape. As she screamed, the sound of clanking chains echoed throughout the warehouse.The dog had a steel collar with an iron chain trailing behind, tethered to a steel post on one side. The dog’s fangs were just inches away from Coco. She trembled in fear.The helpless little girl fainted as she murmured, “D-Daddy…please save me.”The dog stopped growling and returned to its corner before licking its front paws. There was a man-made wound on its front paw.Coco regained consciousness after a while and sat with her back against the wall. She widened her eyes at the dog as it lay in the corner. The dog glanced at Coco but continued to lie down. Coco watched it for a while, then courageously approached it.The dog glanced at her warily. I felt the little girl was not a threat, so it lay its head back down.Coco approached slowly and squatted before the dog to pet it. "Don't be scared, doggie. Daddy will be here soon to save me, and I'll save y

    Meanwhile, Coco hid in a corner and watched the dog lay on the ground. Blood seeped from its mouth as she rushed forward, sobbing while she grabbed Cannon’s pants.“Mister, please don’t hit the doggie! It’s dying!” Thud!Cannon kicked Coco and sent her flying. She clutched her stomach and could only look at the dog lying in a pool of blood.“Did you just beg for mercy for a dog? It’s your turn for a beating now, little brat!” Cannon approached Coco with his blood-stained bat.Coco shivered in fear as she struggled to get up and retreat to a corner. She looked at the man before her with teary eyes, shouting, “Please don’t hit me! My dad will come and beat you up to save me!”Cannon sneered, “Your dad is nothing! Stop dreaming! Just sit there and wait for us to sell you off as someone’s bride!”He swung his bat at Coco’s head, but the dog pounced on his back. It bared its fangs and bit Cannon, causing him to swing his bat around. “Ah! Get off me, you dirty mutt!”He bled from hi

    Suddenly, a gunshot echoed, and a bullet pierced Cannon’s arm. He howled in agony as the steel rod fell with a thud. “Gah! My arm!”A convoy of military jeeps was in the distance. Patrol cars with flashing lights and black armored vehicles suddenly appeared. Armed combatants leaped from the vehicles, taking control of the scene. They encircled Cannon and his partner, every gun aimed at them.The red laser dots appeared on Cannon and his partner. Any sudden move would lead to their demise. They shivered and collapsed to their knees. Cannon desperately exclaimed, “Please don't kill us! We were just following orders!”Meanwhile, a formidable figure emerged from behind the crowd. The man exuded a cold aura when he saw the injured girl on the ground. His presence demanded vengeance. He rushed forward, lifting Coco with great concern. "Coco, I'm so sorry, Daddy's here now. You're not hurt, are you?"Coco threw herself into her father's embrace, sobbing. "Daddy, the big doggie is dead! Th

    Tage’s residence was at Venzor’s outskirts. It resembled an ancient Shalholm architecture. At that moment, Tage played blindfolded hide-and-seek with a group of women. Their laughter filled the air.“Hahaha! Don’t run, ladies!” Tage wore his red blindfold with a cigar in hand, pouncing toward a sexy woman. He swept her up and kissed her several times. He chuckled, “I caught you! You’re mine tonight!”The woman, in her revealing bikini, playfully pushed him away. “Oh, you’re so naughty, Mr. Tage.”Splash, sputter!Suddenly, hurried footsteps came from the wet patio.Boom!A thunderclap followed suit. Butch stood before the room, drenched in rain. He respectfully bowed while Tage continued playing inside the room. More rapid footsteps followed ten minutes later.Five more men in suits joined Butch and stood in the pouring rain, reluctant to disturb Tage. After feeling satisfied, Tage emerged with his arms around a few women and a cigar between his lips. He asked coldly, “What’s al

    The lightning made Xayne’s frigid glare scarier. The downpour only added to the chill in the air. The atmosphere was heavy, making it hard to breathe.Tage glared at Xayne through the rain. “Xayne? I didn’t expect to see you at my residence. It seems I’ve underestimated you.”Xayne remained indifferent. His suppressed bloodlust intensified the atmosphere over the courtyard. His voice was calm to mask his emotions, “Tage, disband your crew.”However, this sentence sent shivers down Tage and his men's spines. Tage burst into laughter and retorted, "Boy, do you realize the audacity of your words? You’re a mere in-law to the Swifts and a remnant of the Xaviers. How dare you be arrogant before me.”Butch and Tage’s henchmen glared at Xayne’s group. One shouted, “It’s bold of you to speak to Mr. Tage like that! Leave now, or Mr. Tage will bury you alive.”“How dare you tell us to disband?! Not even the Grim Reaper dares to speak so boldly!”As tensions peaked, Xayne stood calmly and lo

    It was a bold disregard for the Venzor Military. Linford roared, “Tage, do you understand what you’re doing?!”Tage chuckled, "Of course I do. I’m not one to sit and wait for death. If anyone pushes me off the edge, I’d kill my wife and children to survive.”As he spoke, he signaled Butch with his eyes. Five minutes later, at least forty black vehicles appeared outside the yard. People jumped out of the cars with steel rods and switchblades. They stomped through the rain.Tage’s men surrounded the entire yard. He proclaimed, “About 200 of my men are here now, Lieutenant Linford! Do you think you can take me down with just your soldiers?”Linford gazed at his surroundings. He frowned and looked at Xayne, muttering, “Supreme Commander, should we strike?”Xayne stared at Tage and calmly asked, “Do you think you’ve won?”"Hahaha!" Tage laughed, his eyes full of malice. "Although I don't know your relationship with Lieutenant Linford, I can't promise you two will leave here alive."H

    Swish!Ropes landed in the courtyard as dozens of armed Strategic Eagle operatives and special forces soldiers descended. They formed a circle around Xayne, Linford, and several others.Soon, they pointed their guns outward and roared in unison, “Drop your weapons, or we’ll shoot! Final warning!”Squads of soldiers surged through every entrance and exit of the yard. They took control of the yard almost instantly."Drop your weapons now!""Get down, or we will use force!""Hands on your head and get on the ground!"These booming orders left the gangsters panicked. Most simply discarded their weapons and huddled on the ground with their heads buried in their arms.Although some resisted, the combatants charged in and kicked them down. Immediately after, they aimed their guns at the gangsters’ heads, shouting, “Stay down!”Suddenly, several gangsters rushed forward with their knives.Bang! Bang! Bang!Gunshots echoed through the yard as the gangsters fell into puddles of blood.

    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

    "In the end, his ambitions were never realized. When he attempted to merge all five Dragon's Hearts, he died. After his death, the Dragon's Hearts vanished without a trace. That's why the Light Order has always kept a close eye on Drakonia, especially on the methods Commander Zedd used to track down those Dragon's Hearts," Joe explained.Hearing this, Xayne was utterly stunned. He had never imagined that over a century ago, Commander Zedd had possessed five Dragon's Hearts. That would have been a time when Drakon Destiny was on the rise. However, because of the failed fusion, Commander Zedd lost not only his life but also Drakon Destiny's, which declined, leading to the humiliations and defeats that followed over the next century."So you're saying the Dragon's Hearts are tied to the fate of a nation?" Xayne asked, his shock evident."Absolutely. Based on our research, there's no doubt about it. The fate of Drakonia is linked to the Dragon's Hearts. Every time someone successfully f

    In the VIP lounge of the airport, Xayne and Aava were waiting for their flight. Not long after, a tall, broad-shouldered young man strode in. He scanned the room briefly before his eyes locked onto Xayne and Aava. Without hesitation, he walked straight toward them. "Mr. Xayne, I'm sorry for the wait. I was sent here by Yves."The young man sized up Xayne, his eyes flashing with surprise when he saw that Xayne was completely unharmed. Word had spread about Xayne's clash with Lord of Light, a confrontation that even drew out a Radiant Commander figure, Emin. Yet here Xayne was, perfectly fine. It was hard not to be impressed.As Yves's right-hand man, Joe Zhird knew better than to underestimate someone like Xayne. His respect was evident in his tone and demeanor. With his status as the top lieutenant of Black Ice Platform, even the heads of prominent families would approach him with courtesy. But right now, it was Joe who was showing deference to Xayne, and this caught Aava by surprise
