Chapter 407
Author: Blanco Burn
‘That’s the military! So, Xayne wasn’t lying about the materials. How’s that possible? Isn't he the last member of the Xavier family? He married into the Swifts, right? How’d he make these connections?'

Suddenly, the office door swung open, and Martin entered. He stood behind Xayne and respectfully reported, "Sir, I've gathered a hundred soldiers to surround the municipal office. We await your command."

Xayne nodded, then glanced at the time. He sneered, "Twenty-one minutes have passed. It seems Mr. Nathan won't make it. Mr. Fredrick, it's time for us to settle the score."

A wave of murderous intent emanated from Xayne, sweeping through the municipal building. Even the soldiers downstairs, the evacuated staff, and Serena with her employees felt the overwhelming aura.

'Is that coming from Xayne?'

Serena grew anxious as she stepped forward. However, a soldier intercepted her, saying, "Miss, you can't go in. We're on official duty to protect everyone here."

Serena shouted, "My husba

    A chill ran down Nathan’s spine when he entered. He realized Xayne was a moment away from firing the gun.Meanwhile, the bloodied Fredrick kneeled. When he saw Nathan, he shouted, “Mr. Nathan, save me! You're my brother-in-law. You can't just stand by and watch me die."Fredrick was younger than Nathan, and the latter’s sister took a liking to Fredrick. That was what made Fredrick and Nathan brothers-in-law. Nonetheless, Nathan now regretted allowing Fredrick into the municipal office.Nathan would never have done it if not for his sister's insistence. After all, he knew what kind of person Fredrick was. Unfortunately, the latter charmed Nathan’s sister.Fredrick would always go to Nathan whenever there was trouble. Now, Fredrick had offended someone he could not afford to.Nathan stepped forward and slapped Fredrick, knocking out several teeth. The former scolded, “You’ve gone too far, you idiot! Do you even realize who you’ve offended? I shouldn't have brought you in all those y

    Upon hearing Fredrick's words, Xayne frowned. "Chandler? The heir to the Cann family?""Mr. Xayne’s asking you a question!" Nathan snapped."Y-Yes, he's the heir to the Cann family." Fredrick nodded, tears streaming down his face. "Mr. Nathan and Mr. Xayne, I'm a lowly municipal official. How could I defy Mr. Chander? H-He forced me into this situation. Please have mercy, Mr. Xayne. Spare my life!"Fredrick knocked his head against the ground, pleading relentlessly. Xayne's eyes turned cold, and a surge of killing intent emanated from him."Chandler Cann, huh?!" Xayne declared, his gaze sharp as he looked at Fredrick. "If you want to live, you should know what to do."Fredrick was confused.Before he could say anything, Nathan kicked him and shouted, "Why are you still here?! Go to Mrs. Serena and process her certification.""Oh? Yes, yes, I’ll do that immediately." Fredrick scrambled to his feet and left without composing himself. He spotted Serena and the others from a dista

    Xayne scratched his head, chuckling, “Oh? You must’ve misheard them. A friend of mind brought these materials from the military factory. When Fredrick claimed the materials were substandard, the folks at the military factory came knocking. I was merely a bystander. Anywho, it’s all settled now. Let’s head back.”Serena pouted in confusion as she gazed at Xayne, hoping to discern something from his expression. Ultimately, she found nothing.She sighed and said, "Thank you, Xayne. I wouldn't know what to do if it weren't for you. Fredrick thought he'd try such a terrible thing on me. He shouldn't be allowed to stay in the municipal office."She had a lingering fear as she reflected on what had happened.Xayne nodded and embraced Serena. "It's okay now. Fredrick won't remain in the municipality for long. He might just find himself in custody."Serena blushed as Xayne held her. Her heart fluttered inexplicably. The two seldom had a chance to be close, especially in public.Serena nes

    Xayne smiled and held Serena's hand. Under the chandelier, he spoke gently, "It's okay. You and Coco are my everything in life. I will spend my lifetime protecting you two."Serena sensed his sincerity, her eyes glistening with tears. She nodded and patted Coco’s head, saying, “Okay, I hope the three of us can always live happily.”The trio picked up their utensils and said in unison, “Let’s eat!”Such a heartwarming scene would evoke envy in others. Serena had waited five long years for this blissful life. She genuinely wished to freeze this moment forever, and Xayne felt the same.Midway through the meal, Serena said, "By the way, I've been looking into some information and advertisements about daycares. I'm considering sending Coco to one. That way, she can make friends and won't have to stay home all the time.“It wouldn't be good for her future development. Plus, you said you just found a job, right? That way, you won't have to be with Coco all day."Xayne nodded, looking at

    An assistant rushed into Chandler's office the following day. She panted while exclaiming, "Mr. Chandler, something's happened!"Chandler, amid a phone call with his mother, spotted the flustered assistant bursting in. He squinted at her and ended the call, asking, "What is it? Why the rush?"The assistant bowed and coquettishly offered, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chandler. I just went to the municipal office to find Mr. Fredrick. They told me the Inspection Center took him away on embezzlement and corruption charges.""What?! They arrested Fredrick? Why am I just hearing about this now?!" Chandler exclaimed in shock.'Why did Fredrick get arrested? Isn't he the brother-in-law to the chief of the municipal office?'"I don't know either. Our materials are still with Mr. Fredrick. What do we do now?" The assistant pouted with concern.Chandler paced around his office and declared, "I'll go to the municipal office and find Mr. Nathan for some answers!"He strode out of his office, driving him

    The chief secretary seemed puzzled. Suddenly, Nathan appeared and greeted from a distance, "Mr. Chandler, I'm sorry, I just returned."Chandler saw Nathan and quickly approached to shake the latter’s hand, "Mr. Nathan, nice to meet you. I'm Chandler from Windsor Corporation."Nathan nodded. "Mr. Chandler, your name has been making waves recently. Let's talk in my office."The two smiled at each other and then proceeded to Nathan's office. Nathan made a cup of coffee and offered it to Chandler, who accepted it with a smile.The atmosphere was slightly awkward. Still, Nathan smiled and said, "Mr. Chandler, since you're a businessman, let's get straight to the point. I'm quite busy here."Chandler cleared his throat, then chuckled. "You don't beat around the bush, do you? Okay, I'll be direct too."With that, he signaled his female assistant to present the generous gift he had brought. Chandler said, "That is a hundred-year-old whiskey I brought from the capital. They say it’s good

    Xayne raised an eyebrow and looked at Abel coldly. Then, he continued to read his magazine.Abel was dissatisfied with Xayne’s expression. After all, no one had ever disrespected Abel that way. He was the center of attention wherever he went because he was the scion of the Ghazli Corporation.The Ghazli Corporation was an upcoming giant enterprise and conglomerate in Shalholm. While this branch was in a small town, the headquarters was in the capital. The Ghazli Corporation headquarters was a first-rate major enterprise, with assets exceeding seven billion dollars.The Ghazali family was prestigious, and Abel held the title of one of the Four Scions of the Capital. He would not have come to this small town if it weren’t for his father.Abel was furious when Xayne ignored him.Abel’s female assistant pointed at Xayne and rebuked, "Hey, why aren't you standing? You have no manners at all. Who let you in?!"Xayne frowned and lifted his gaze. He glanced at Abel again and then at the

    Scarlett palmed her reddened cheek in shock. She tearfully grabbed Abel's arm, shouting, "Mr. Abel, she hit me! What did I do wrong?"Abel frowned at Ariana. He asked coldly, "Scarlett is my assistant. Aren't you disrespecting me by slapping her?"Ariana stared at Abel and replied, "So what? You better put a leash on your assistant. I'm Ariana Ghazali. How can a mere assistant make decisions for me? I hired Xayne as my bodyguard. Whoever dares to kick him out has a problem with me."With that, Ariana turned and stomped past Abel. Her imposing presence stunned Xayne.‘She’s impressive.’Xayne then stood up and moved to catch up with Ariana. However, Abel blocked him and said, “I suggest you resign. Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to make your life miserable. If I'm not mistaken, you mentioned yesterday that you have a daughter."Xayne stopped. His expression turned cold and sharp as he turned to Abel, saying, “If I find out you've laid a hand on my family, there will be only one

    "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

    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

    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

    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

    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
