Chapter 423
Author: Blanco Burn
Carter showed no remorse, even as Xayne held him above the ground. After all, Carter knew he had backup.

He shouted angrily at Xayne, "You damned Drakonian fool! This is an embassy bound by international conventions. Who are you to kill me? Do you represent Drakonia?"

"Represent Drakonia?" Xayne's eyes narrowed, and he spoke slowly, "If I say you're dead, you're dead."

Xayne's name and words could represent all of Drakonia. His words were the law, and no one could question them.

"Who do you think you are, punk? International law governs this place. You’ll suffer severe consequences for causing trouble here!" Carter shouted angrily.

His embassy in Shalholm was an official institution not to be trampled upon. Embassies were sensitive establishments in every country. Intruding an embassy resembled a challenge to sovereignty.

Yet, Xayne dared to barge into the embassy and disregard protocol to threaten Carter. It was beyond boldness. It meant disrespect toward Newcroa and the embass

    Amid the crowd, rows of tanks and armored vehicles stood tall. The embassy teemed with troops within a five-mile radius.'Just...how many troops are there? Are they trying to instigate a war between the two nations?!'Carter panicked. His legs trembled as sweat formed on his forehead.Meanwhile, Xayne stood calmly. He flicked away his cigarette and stomped it out, saying, "You want to discuss consequences with me, Carter? Do you like the consequences I'm presenting?"Carter's legs went weak, and he almost fainted.'Is this the consequence of crossing Xayne? Ten thousand soldiers have surrounded the embassy. This guy’s not joking around.’Carter knew there was no point arguing if these were the consequences he would face. He paled as he stared at the indifferent Xayne in horror. The sea of soldiers outside shook Carter to his core.Although he had met many influential figures and experienced countless scenarios, he was genuinely afraid now. The might of ten thousand soldiers was

    The robe, embroidered with golden threads, depicted a five-clawed golden dragon soaring through the clouds and chasing the sun. ‘He’s a Star Commander! That’s the robe worn during Drakonia’s military parades.’Carter could no longer stand. His legs trembled as he collapsed into his seat. He never imagined that the person he had just confronted was none other than a Star Commander.Xayne was an invincible presence, standing above ten thousand men. He commanded Drakonia's army with the highest rank. Stars represented one’s rank in the Drakonia military, yet Xayne’s robe had dragons.The robe had once awed millions of troops from various nations. A Star Commander had appeared in the small embassy.Xayne, now showing in his military robe with the awe-inspiring dragon pattern, exuded an invincible aura that swept through the room. He dominated the hearts of these treacherous foreigners.They had to bow to Xayne, whether high-ranking officials or nobles. With his dragon robe, Xayne co

    Carter dropped to his knees with cold sweat on his forehead. 'Could he be a Three-star Commander?!'"Sir... are you a Three-star...Commander?" Carter shook with fear. After all, it was unimaginable for a Three-star Commander to be only over twenty years old. Carter was so terrified he could not even draw a steady breath.Everyone in the embassy looked shocked and in disbelief, as they continued to kneel.However, Xayne continued to shake his head. He spoke coldly, "Only three stars? Do you know what's after three stars?"Boom! Carter felt like lightning had struck him. He shuddered violently, and cold sweat poured down his body. 'Is he higher than a Three-star Commander?! That can't be. It’s simply too terrifying.' Everyone became wide-eyed. A dreadful and horrifying thought flashed through their minds.‘He’s a Four-star Commander?! But he looks to be in his twenties. That’s beyond terrifying.'Everyone gasped. Commanders with four stars were rare among the dozen or so Dr

    Carter trembled as he looked at the youngest and most honored commander since Drakonia’s founding. The entire conference room gasped collectively. ‘He’s a Five-star Commander, second only to the Commander of Drakonia!’ Furthermore, Xayne was the King of the North, who commanded three hundred thousand soldiers. His name echoed internationally. His might was beyond comparison to ordinary men.After witnessing that million-strong battle, several Newcroan generals were shocked for days before finally retreating. Soon after the battle, Drakonia was on the rise with Xayne’s might and ferocity.It was the highest praise for the Supreme Commander from various nations. Drakonia would flourish with Xayne’s presence. Now, that same Supreme Commander stood before Carter, who paled and trembled."S-S-Supreme Commander," Carter stammered, bowing to the ground in reverence.Xayne remained composed, asking, "You claimed this was Newcroan soil, protected by Newcroa and international law?""Tha

    Emerson was scornful and arrogant. His words and demeanor horrified Carter. The latter rose and slapped his son, yelling, “Kneel and apologize to her!”"No! Why should I? What did I do wrong?!" Emerson remained stubborn."If you don't apologize, I'll return you to our country," Carter threatened.Emerson grew flustered this time, reluctantly offering an apology to Coco. "I'm sorry."Carter hastily added, "Supreme Commander, they're just kids. We should take their words with a grain of salt. I hope you can consider the bigger picture."Xayne looked at Coco and asked, "Are you happy?"Rubbing her reddened eyes, Coco nodded. "Yes, Daddy, let's go back.""Good." Xayne nodded and glared at Carter, warning him, "Remember, this land will always belong to Drakonia. It's not the private property of foreign barbarians like you.""Yes, sir, I understand." Carter nodded frantically.Xayne turned and left the embassy with Coco. Afterward, Carter sighed in relief and slumped into a seat, hi

    Xayne smiled and ruffled Coco's hair, saying, "Did you believe everything I said just now? It was just a little trick I used to scare them. You shouldn't take it seriously."Upon hearing this, Serena sighed in relief, thinking it was all an act.Coco pursed her lips at Xayne with a puzzled expression. Then, she leaned in and whispered, "Daddy, were you planning to surprise Mommy?"Xayne smiled and tapped Coco's nose. "That’s right. Will you keep it a secret for me?"Coco covered her innocent smile. "Of course, it's our little secret."Serena watched the two whispering to each other, and her reproachful look turned into a happy smile. She asked, “Did your boss agree to advance your salary?"Xayne had forgotten about this matter. He chuckled, "Yeah. They’ll deposit my pay into my account in a few days. I'll transfer it to you, and then you can take Coco to enroll in school."Serena's eyes sparkled with delight. "Really? That's wonderful!"She playfully pinched Coco's nose and ask

    The Shalholm Business Association cocktail party occurred at the Whitehorse Manor, near the outskirts of Shalholm. The scenery was breathtaking, and the estate exuded splendor.As night fell, the Whitehorse Manor’s lights shined through the surroundings. The entrance had various luxury cars like Porsches, Ferraris, Bentleys, and even a Rolls-Royce.The attendees were prominent figures of Shalholm. They encompassed the first- and second-tier families of Shalholm, as well as high-profile CEOs and chairpersons. Eric’s and Serena’s family arrived at the Whitehorse Manor in awe.The cost of building this manor was a staggering hundred and forty million dollars. It lived up to the Shalholm Business Association’s reputation. However, one person was conspicuously absent—Xayne.The reason was simple. Eric forbade him from attending. After all, the event was an excellent opportunity for the Swifts to connect with various influential figures. They could not afford any mishaps Xayne could caus

    Whoosh! The group turned to stare at Royce. The latter was taken aback, quickly showing everyone the photo on his phone. "Look, guys. Doesn't that person look a lot like Xayne?!"The Swift family members stared at the somewhat blurry photo. Surprisingly, the person bore some resemblance, even though it was unclear. Nonetheless, the person’s physique and profile struck a chord with the family.Serena was just as stunned and skeptical.‘Can it be Xayne?'She quickly looked over, seeing Chuck and the others escorting the mysterious VIP into the Whitehorse Manor. Eric, Tim, and the others turned to Serena. One asked, “Where's Xayne now?"Serena stuttered, "H-He's probably at home with Coco.""Call him now!" Eric urged. It would be a tremendous surprise if it turned out to be Xayne. ‘Xayne had Chuck and other prominent figures of Shalholm greet him at the door! We’ll strike gold if it is Xayne.’Serena nervously called Xayne. She found it hard to believe and didn’t know what to d

    "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
