Chandler answered the call with a grin, "Mr. Fredrick, how's everything?"

Fredrick sat in his office with his legs on the desk. He chuckled. "Mr. Chandler, I got it covered."

Chandler laughed. "Of course, Mr. Fredrick. I know your capabilities well. Is there something you need, sir?"

Fredrick grinned mischievously, "It's not urgent, just… Hehe… Mr. Chandler, you should understand that I'm not after money. However, those ladies you sent me last night were something else. I was wondering if you could… You know…"

Chandler understood and chuckled. "Mr. Fredrick, rest assured. Same place, same room tonight. Someone will be waiting for you."

Fredrick put his feet down and nodded. "All right, excellent! I'm at ease now. Hahaha. Okay, you can go about your business now. I won't disturb you."

He slyly smiled as he recalled the five women from last night. He wished he could leave work immediately. However, a glance at the clock showed it was still early. After some thought, he pulled a few

    Serena stood her ground with three employees. Her face reddened as she argued with the inspection team, "Why do you have the right to stop us from inspecting?"They brought the materials over but were denied entry for inspection."Ms. Serena is right! How can you do this?""Where's Fredrick? Tell him to come out!"The three employees behind Serena joined in the protest. However, the inspection team remained indifferent as they looked at Serena and her team. "Cut the chatter and leave now. The machines broke down today, so we can't conduct inspections now. Come back tomorrow!"Suddenly, a boss from a neighboring area with a few workers and materials appeared. They handed some cigarettes to the inspection team, and the latter let them in. Seeing this, Serena was outraged. "How come you let them in for inspection? You're deliberately making things difficult for us. I demand to see Fredrick!" Serena was not one to always be passive. She knew the inspection team was deliberately

    Serena cautiously glanced at the tea and refrained from drinking it. She apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Frederick. I don’t like tea very much.”Fredrick dropped his smile and sat across from her. His voice turned cold, "What's this, Ms. Serena? Are you looking down on me? You don't even want to take a sip? In that case, we won't need to inspect those materials after all."Serena quickly smiled. "Mr. Fredrick, it's not what you think, I..."Without further hesitation, she took a small sip.Seeing Serena drink from the cup, Fredrick relaxed. His gaze grew more intense as he stood up and sat beside Serena. He reached for her delicate hand, chuckling, "Ms. Serena, do you know why the previous batch of materials didn't pass inspection?"Serena was startled by Fredrick's boldness, quickly pulling her hand away. She stood up and said, "Mr. Fredrick, please show some restraint. If you persist, I'll leave."Fredrick chuckled, unaffected by Serena's resistance. He said, "Ms. Serena, we're adu

    Fredrick would never let Serena go. It was a perfect opportunity to sleep with Serena. He produced the inspection report and presented it to her, declaring, “Look, it's not up to standard. The new materials you sent are subpar.”Of course, it was a fake report he had made.Serena was in disbelief, exclaiming, “How’s that possible? Mr. Fredrick, these materials are from Venzor's military factory. I even brought the official quality inspection report. These materials exceed the market standard by 20%!"She was utterly dumbfounded.Fredrick squinted in disbelief and asked, "Military materials? Serena, who are you trying to fool? How can your modest family obtain materials from the military?"Serena mustered her strength and retrieved the inspection report from her bag. Fredrick hastily examined it, finding it to be true. It even had the Venzor Military Theatre seal. It made him flustered.He never imagined she could secure materials from the military factory.‘That’s impossible!’

    “Xayne…” Serena felt drained as she lay on the sofa, looking aggrieved and frightened.Xayne knelt before her and covered her with a blanket. He comforted her, "It's okay. I'm here now."He noticed something wrong with Serena as he spoke. Her complexion was flushed as sweat covered her face. Even her breath came in rapid gasps. Then, he saw the teacup on the table. He sniffed it and detected a faint scent of a powdered substance.A bone-chilling rage consumed Xayne as his eyes widened. He reached into his waistband and removed several silver needles from it. He inserted them into Serena's throat and a few critical acupoints on her head.Thirty seconds later, Serena expelled the tea she had ingested while sweating profusely.Xayne seldom displayed his medical skills. After all, he rarely needed to intervene with three renowned miracle doctors in Shalholm. However, Xayne's medical expertise was second to none within the five military districts.As the Supreme Commander of the North

    Fredrick grew dreadful as the man before appeared to be a battle-hardened warrior. Fear overwhelmed Fredrick when Xayne approached.Frederick stepped back, shouting, “What… What do you want?! Who do you think you are? You’re in the municipal office. I am Fredrick Grant, a high-ranking official.”Xayne closed the distance step by step, his fist clenched. "I’m Serena's husband, Xayne Xavier."Suddenly, he struck Fredrick’s eye. Immediately after, the latter’s eye turned purple, and he howled pitifully. “Gah! You're that good-for-nothing brat. You've gone too far. How dare you strike me? I will never approve Serena’s materials!"Xayne chuckled, "Mr. Fredrick, your authority in the municipal office is pretty extensive. Do you even respect the chief judge of the municipal office?""Nonsense! The chief judge is my brother-in-law. When I speak, he listens." Fredrick covered his injured eye as he grimaced at Xayne. “It’s over for you and your wife! I won't back down unless you compensate

    The shift in Kenneth's attitude left the various officers shocked. They were surprised that Kenneth, the mayor of Shalholm, had shown such respect toward the caller. The officers knew not to take the caller lightly."Kenneth, is the municipal office’s chief officer in the meeting with you?" Xayne asked indifferently.Kenneth shuddered and looked at Nathan. The former nodded, saying, "He's here, Mr. Xayne. May I ask if something has happened?"Nathan trembled as he sat amongst the others. He wondered if the call was related to him.Meanwhile, Xayne stared at Fredrick before him. Xayne spoke into the phone, “I'm at the municipal office. My wife brought two batches of materials for inspection, but they rejected both."Kenneth sighed in relief, knowing it was a manageable issue. He smiled, saying, “Mr. Xayne, you know each unit has its rules. I can't intervene in the municipality's work. If your wife's materials failed the inspection, I can help her with another batch to meet the crit

    Nathan’s anxiety grew, thinking, ‘Fredrick tore up the quality inspection report from the military factory? Who’s Mr. Xayne? Why did Kenneth react so strongly?'He wiped the sweat from his cheeks, trembling as he asked, "Mr. Kenneth, what... Who’s Mr. Xayne? Is the situation that severe?" Kenneth scoffed, “You're not qualified to know Mr. Xayne's identity. Although I’m Shalholm’s mayor, I can only step down unconditionally if Mr. Xayne wants to take over. I’m only fit to stand aside and serve him. Do you understand?”Boom! Kenneth's words caused a stir in the conference room. 'Mr. Xayne's identity is terrifying. Could he be an envoy sent from the capital?'Nathan dared not ask further. He said, "Mr. Kenneth, rest assured I’ll handle it. I'll ensure Mr. Xayne is satisfied.""Mr. Xayne has only given you twenty minutes! You better handle this properly. If Mr. Xayne is even slightly dissatisfied, you will resign," Kenneth scolded, then stormed out of the conference room.Nathan

    Fredrick panicked. The expression and demeanor Xayne had when he said those words did not seem like he was joking. Fredrick gulped, his forehead now drenched in cold sweat.To bolster his courage, Fredrick shouted, "You're spouting nonsense! How dare you commit murder here? I'm an official, and my brother-in-law’s the chief officer. You'll get arrested if you dare cause trouble here.“Your wife and child will be a widow and an orphan by then. Your actions will also ostracize the Swifts throughout Shalholm.""Oh? Mr. Fredrick, do you still naively believe I wouldn't kill you?" Xayne spoke coldly, taking a few steps forward.Frightened, Fredrick retreated until his back was against the window. There was no way out behind him. "You... Don't come any closer. If you do, I'll jump. I'll scream murder.""Mr. Fredrick, I suggest you look below before jumping." Xayne sneered, standing confidently with his hands behind his back.Fredrick turned and looked down. His legs turned to jelly, an

    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
