Xayne felt a shiver run down his spine as he frowned with concern. He wondered why no one answered his call and if something happened at the company. Just then, Ace, in full military regalia, approached from behind.

Xayne asked, “How many days has it been since we left Venzor?”

Ace replied, “It’s been over two days, sir. Adrian will become a Lieutenant today.”

Xayne was alarmed, saying lowly, “Return to Venzor immediately. Something’s happened to my wife and child.”

His intuition told him that Serena and Coco were in trouble. After all, his instincts from years of experience in the Northern Plains battles had saved him countless times.

Whoosh!

Xayne’s dragon-patterned battle robe billowed, shining brightly. He exuded a bone-chilling determination as he strode out of the main gate. Ace followed closely, trying to contact Donovan, Chuck, and Linford.

Xayne boarded the Drakonix Military Car with a 00001 number plate. He ordered, “Take me to Drakov Airport as quickly as possible!”

    Ring, ring!The ringing broke the silence, further intensifying the atmosphere. Warren answered the call with a fierce look in his eyes, demanding, “Speak!”“Sir, Lieutenant Linford was in a meeting at the provincial capital. He left for Venzor half an hour ago. According to the Drakonia Intelligence Agency, Adrian Lenning had detained Harold Saun two days ago.“Commander Raymond has also been detained for carrying heavy weaponry intended for Adrian Lenning.” The messenger’s heart raced as he relayed this information.Warren asked, “What else?”The Dragon Network intelligence operative continued, “Before this, Adrian’s sister, Kendall Lenning, led a group to remove some Swift family members from the Venzor General Hospital. The family members include Tony Swift, Violet Duncan, Serena Swift, and her daughter, Coco.”Warren roared, “They even took Serena and Coco?!”Hammond and the other elders were shocked. They rose from their seats and stared at Warren.“Y-Yes, Mr. Warren. Is

    An hour later, Linford’s car appeared at Venzor’s entrance. He looked determined sitting inside, even wanting to overturn the entire vehicle.Moments ago, he received a call from General Rhaega’s deputy, the Commander of East Yoskea Military Theater. His tone was solemn and furious as he briefed Linford on the current situation in Venzor.Linford was shocked as he paled.'How dare Adrian be so bold and lawless while I was away?! He illegally detained Chief Harold and Raymond!'However, what he was furious about most was Adrian’s men taking Serena and Coco. After all, they were the Supreme Commander of the Northern Plains’ wife and daughter."Quick, return to the Venzor Military Headquarters and inform everyone to assemble. Stand by for my orders!" Linford roared. The driver slammed on the gas and sped toward the military headquarters.Meanwhile, thirty thousand Northern Plains soldiers prepared themselves on the outskirts of Venzor. They could turn heaven and earth upside down. T

    The crowd raised their glasses in unison, chanting, "Congratulations, Lieutenant Adrian!"Adrian said smilingly, "Ladies and gentlemen, it's an honor to have you all at my inauguration ceremony. Among you are familiar faces and some I've yet to meet. I hope we can work together for a brighter future in Venzor. Let's strive and progress together!"He downed his drink, and the prominent figures below followed suit. They praised him for being the most outstanding talent in Venzor. They knew he would lead the way to a prosperous future."Lieutenant Adrian, the future looks bright with you as the Lennings’ pride.""We'll depend on you from now on, Lieutenant Adrian!""Lieutenant Adrian and the Lennings will dominate Venzor! Let's raise our glasses together!"The surrounding praises were incessant. Adrian and Henry raised their glasses pridefully. They were now on par with Linford, a position that was previously out of reach for the Lennings.Things were different today among these

    Serena clutched Coco tightly with despair, fear, and dread. Her once bright eyes had lost their luster. She became wide-eyed as she observed the influential figures pointing and discussing below the stage.Serena and Coco lay beneath the glaring spotlight, subjected to the crowd’s scrutiny and gossip."Isn't that Serena Swift with her illegitimate child? How did they end up in a crate? What a pitiful sight.""Heh, being confined to a crate is letting her off easy! We should parade that woman down the streets!""This is all because of that miserable lapdog, Xayne Xavier. Offending the Lennings was just reckless! I heard he fled and left his wife and daughter behind. He's a scoundrel!"Everyone looked at Serena and Coco, confined in the crate on stage. Their situation was indeed wretched. The Swifts spotted Serena and Coco, their expressions turning increasingly grim. Eric and his associates grew resolute when they heard the mockery around them.It was utterly embarrassing."Hmph,

    The Swift felt the crowd’s burning gaze. The family was full of dread and an overwhelming sense of shame. They hated Serena for disgracing the family.Enraged, Eric pointed at Serena on the stage and shouted, "Shut up! You tainted our family’s reputation, you vile woman! You're not my granddaughter. You are not a Swift.”The other family members echoed, “Shut your mouth, Serena! You’re nothing but a curse to this family. We’ve disowned you.”“She must be insane! Don’t believe her, everyone. She’s not one of us.”“Yeah, we have nothing to do with that idiot!”The Swifts desperately distanced themselves from Serena while she cried nonstop. She gripped the iron bars and knocked her head against them. Serena watched as her family disowned her. At that moment, despair consumed her heart.“G-Grandpa, why have you forsaken me?! You can disown me, but I beg you to save my daughter! She’s slipping away!” Serena cried in anguish, almost running out of tears.Suddenly, Kendall appeared on

    “W-What?!” Violet was shocked as she widened her eyes in terror.She struggled desperately as the soldiers grabbed her. “N-No! Don’t bury us, please! Ms. Kendall, spare us. I-It’s all… Xayne and Serena’s fault. We had nothing… to do with it! Ah, don’t bury us!”The soldiers shoved Violet, Royce, and Tony into freshly dug pits. Royce was so frightened that he wet himself. He hid behind his mother and cried, “I don’t want to die! I’m so young!”Kendall glanced at Serena coldly and asked, “Will you speak? If not, I’ll bury your parents and brother right now!”Tears streamed down Serena's face as she watched her wailing parents in the pit. Her heart ached as she shared their hopelessness. She could only bow and beg fervently.However, Kendall signaled the soldiers to bury the trio. Clouds of dirt flew toward them, burying the trio alive. Serena watched in immense despair, exclaiming incoherently, “N-No, don't! Mom, Dad, I’m so sorry for being an unfilial daughter!”She could only yel

    Ethan nodded, beaming as he approached the Swifts.Meanwhile, Adrian stepped onto the stage in his military attire and Lieutenant insignia on his shoulders. He commanded the crowd’s attention and signaled the soldiers to halt. He smirked at the Swifts below the stage and asked, “Do you wish to plead for those three?”Eric forced a smile. “Lieutenant Adrian, he’s my son. Their connection to Xayne isn’t much. I implore you to show mercy and release them, sir. My family and I will be grateful if you did.”Adrian remained composed and stated, "All right, let's make a deal. I'll save them, but I want your whole family."The crowd gasped and fell silent immediately after. Eric and the others stared at each other intensely. They thought trading the whole family for just three people was outrageous.Eric was astounded while Tim and Sophia became emotional. They tugged at Eric’s arm, and one said, “Grandpa, you can’t agree to that! It involves our whole family!”On the other side, Royce s

    Immediately after, the thirty thousand soldiers rushed into action, even causing the earth to rumble. "Orders received. All troops advance!"Venzor was amid a storm while Adrian stood on the stage within the Lennings’ residence. He gazed down at Eric and asked coldly, “Haven’t you decided yet?”Eric shook as he looked at Tony’s family in the pit helplessly. He felt hurt and frustrated but couldn’t trade the whole family for the trio. Finally, the older man shook his head in resignation. He looked miserable, and his eyes seemed distant.Meanwhile, the trio was in despair as they watched Eric choose. Tony roared with tears streaming down his face, “Dad, I’m your son!”Violet and Royce clung to each other, sobbing uncontrollably.Adrian scoffed, then turned to look at Serena. He asked indifferently, "I'll give you one last chance. Think carefully for your daughter's sake. You wanted to save her, right? Then tell me, where is Xayne? Just tell me, and I'll release all of you."Kendall

    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
