Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 436
Xayne slapped Scarlett, sending her face askew.The crowd fell silent, stunned by what they had just witnessed.“Did he just strike her?! That’s like offending Mr. Abel and the Ghazali Corporation!”Scarlett was dumbfounded as she held her swelling and stinging cheek. Her eyes brimmed with fury as she glared at the masked Xayne. In a hysterical fit, she screamed, "You dared to hit me?! Ahhh! I'll kill you!"Scarlett went berserk as she rushed forward, intending to unleash her martial arts skills upon Xayne. However, the latter kicked Scarlett's abdomen with a resounding thud, sending her flying across the room.Once again, everyone gasped in shock. “That man is so strong, and his actions are decisive. Scarlett stood no chance against him!”"Gah, my stomach!" Scarlett writhed on the ground, groaning, "Mr. Abel... he hit me… I'll kill him!"Abel helped Scarlett up from the ground angrily. He glared at the masked Xayne, yelling, "Who are you?! How dare you lay hands on my secreta

The grand hall fell into a prolonged silence as the atmosphere turned tense. The crowd felt a shiver run down their spine.Meanwhile, sweat dripped from Abel’s forehead. However, his pride as the heir to the Ghazali Corporation led him to dismiss Xayne’s warning. The former retorted, “How dare you question me?”Immediately after, the crowd began questioning the masked man’s identity and why he stepped in for Serena.“Is it as Scarlett said? Is he in an affair with Serena?”The onlookers looked curious."Tsk tsk, it seems Serena is no ordinary woman. She must’ve done more than seduce Mr. Abel.""I agree. Otherwise, why would the masked man help her?""Poor Xayne, he probably has no idea his wife is cheating on him."Whispers and murmurs began to fill the hall. Serena hung her head as her tears glistened. After all, she had suffered an injustice and felt helpless. She glanced at the masked man, wondering who he was and why he stood up for her.Xayne shook his head and asked ba

Abel grew arrogant when he realized the captain of the guards recognized him. Abel lifted his chin, saying, "Since you know me, you must know what to do next, right?"Clinton nodded and glared at the masked Xayne, sternly saying, “How dare you trespass into the gala and lay hands on our esteemed guests? I have the authority to apprehend you. Men, take him away!"Two armed guards stepped forward, intending to apprehend Xayne.However, the panicked Serena stepped forward to explain, "I'm sorry, Mr. Clinton. It has nothing to do with him. It's all my fault, so please don't involve innocent people."Clinton frowned and ignored Serena, commanding, "Take him away!"As the two guards approached Xayne, his intimidating aura forced them back. Then, Xayne stepped forward and glared at Clinton. “Do you have the authority to arrest someone without distinguishing right from wrong?”Clinton aimed his gun at Xayne and growled, “Step back now! I’m warning you to surrender, sir! Regardless of the

“Chuck is kneeling before the masked man?!”“Not only that—he’s apologizing, too!”The entire crowd tensed up while Clinton was dumbfounded. He looked at his boss, now kneeling before the man he was about to apprehend. At that moment, Clinton felt like he wanted to hide in a corner.He quickly followed suit and knelt with the guards behind him.Abel was the most shocked of all. He furrowed his brows and could hardly believe what he had witnessed. Abel knew the masked man must have an extraordinary status. Even Serena looked at the masked man in puzzlement, trying to figure out who he was.The masked Xayne glanced at the kneeling Chuck and calmly said, “Please, rise. This matter has nothing to do with you. There's no need for excessive self-blame.”Chuck quickly stood up and glared at the kneeling Clinton, scolding, "Do you know who this gentleman is?! He is the host of tonight's gala and also the owner of Whitehorse Manor. How dare you point a gun at him?”Boom!Chuck had annou

It was unfortunate, but Abel felt he had no choice. Immediately after, everyone looked at Scarlett. She had just regained her composure, but Clinton had already approached with his men. He commanded, “Take her away!”Two guards lifted Scarlett and escorted her out. She cried in despair, "Ah! What are you doing? Where are you taking me?! Mr. Abel, save me!"When everyone turned to look, they realized Able had somehow slipped away unnoticed. Soon after, the commotion ended. Shalholm’s celebrities and luminaries now glanced at the masked Xayne enviously.Finally, they knew he was the most significant figure at the gala.Xayne turned to Chuck and said, "Find a room and provide this young lady with clean clothes."When he left, Chuck instructed his staff to take Serena to a room upstairs.In the main hall, everyone rushed to converse with the masked Xayne. They wanted to offer toasts, but he politely declined. Meanwhile, Sophia and Tim exchanged silent glances, thinking the same thing

Serena motioned to reach for the mask, but Xayne approached with the hot porridge and sat down. He said smilingly, “Eat it while it’s hot. How was the gala?”Serena accepted the bowl and hesitated to discuss what had happened at the gala. She smiled and replied, “It was okay. I got tired, so I came home early.”Xayne nodded without saying much, feeling apprehensive. Luckily, he returned home early. Otherwise, Serena would have discovered his lie.Serena forgot about the white mask as she finished the porridge. Soon after, she went to the bedroom, her enthusiasm somewhat dampened.Puzzled, Coco turned to Xayne and said, "Daddy, Mommy looks sad."Xayne patted Coco's head and reassured her, "It's nothing."Afterward, he picked up the white mask from the corner of the sofa and placed it deep inside a cabinet. He narrowly avoided Serena seeing it.Meanwhile, Abel had already returned to his hotel. He raged and smashed everything in his room as he cursed. "Damn it! Who the hell was th

The pressure bearing down on Randall was immense.Splash!A bead of sweat trickled down Randall's forehead, then dropped to the ground. Though only a moment, it felt like an eternity for Randall. The aura he felt was terrifying.'There is an expert inside this room, a tremendously skilled fighter.'Randall contemplated fleeing at that moment. Still, he dared not make that decision, fearing he would meet his end the next second. He had never encountered such a surging murderous intent before.The most powerful person Randall had ever met was the Executioner, a mercenary from abroad named Pierre Cauldron. The latter was a Master Warrior and a mighty existence. Under his command was a mercenary legion numbering in the tens of thousands. Randall was nothing more than a speck of dust before Pierre. Perhaps Randall's Graduate Warrior status allowed him to thrive in Shalholm, but Pierre could take his life with a snap of his finger.However, the murderous intent terrified Randall. It

Randall trembled as he prostrated on the ground without hesitation. He stammered, "I-I...It was Abel, the heir to the Ghazali family."Upon hearing this, Xayne's eyes gleamed sharply.‘So it’s him after all.’Although Xayne had guessed it was Abel when Randall appeared, he still wanted confirmation. Every crime had a perpetrator, but Xayne despised wrongly accusing an innocent person.When Randall knew he could no longer stay with Abel after ratting his boss out. His current situation left him with no choice. He could only beg for mercy from the formidable figure before him and then leave Shalholm.‘No, I must leave the capital. N-No! I must leave Drakonia! My best option is to return to Westfordia.’Although it was a land of bloodshed and carnage, the courtyard made Randall feel as if armies and a sea of blood had surrounded him.The tall figure in the darkness spoke faintly, "How do you think you should die?"Gulp! Randall was startled as sweat poured down his forehead. He

"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
Chapter 2686
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
Chapter 2684
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
Chapter 2682
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
