Meanwhile, Xayne and Ariana arrived at the Renaissance Hotel. The entire first floor was reserved, with over a dozen black-suited bodyguards stationed at the entrance and around the hotel.

The two approached the entrance, where a stern-looking guard stated, “Ms. Ariana, please allow us to inspect your belongings.”

Ariana frowned but said nothing and handed her bag to the guard. He checked them and then respectfully said, “Ms. Ariana, please enter. Mr. Gary has been waiting for a while now.”

Ariana stepped forward to head inside as Xayne followed closely. However, the guard stopped him, saying, “I’m sorry, sir. Only Ms. Serena is invited. Please wait outside.”

Xayne frowned and looked at Ariana. She glanced at the guard questioningly and said, “He’s my bodyguard and can’t be away from me.”

The guard seemed conflicted. “Ms. Ariana, I’m only following Mr. Gary’s orders. Unfortunately, I cannot let this man in.”

“Then I won’t go in, either,” Ariana was straightforward, always speakin

    Gary's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly regained his composure. It did not matter if Xayne knew how to fight because Gary had prepared fully.The latter snorted and adjusted his suit before turning and smiling. He said, “Ariana, I didn’t expect you to come. Let’s have a toast. It’s a rare vintage wine I bought from the capital. I know you’ll like it.”Gary snapped his fingers, and a waitress in a red slit dress approached. She uncorked the wine and poured some for Gary and Ariana. The former raised his glass, and Ariana soon followed suit. They clinked their glasses and sipped the wine.Then, Ariana got straight to the point, “I’m here on my father’s behalf, Mr. Gary. Let’s stick to business.”Gary chuckled, “You’ve never changed, huh? You’re always putting work first. We won’t discuss business tonight.Ariana frowned, displeased. “We won’t? Did you invite me here just for dinner, Gary?”Suddenly, all the lights on the floor went out. Only the light above the table and the on

    Ariana was shocked to see so many guards, instinctively moving closer to Xayne. Then, she turned and glared at Gary, asking, “What do you think you’re doing?! You know I’m the heiress to the Ghazali Corporation, right? If you lay a finger on me, my dad won’t let you off.”Gary was outraged as he stared at Ariana and retorted, “Ariana, have you lost your mind? What do you mean your dad won’t let me off? He arranged tonight’s dinner and sent you here.”“No, that’s impossible! You’re making things up. He dotes on me and would never do such a thing.” Ariana felt rattled, struggling to accept Gary’s claims.Gary chuckled and scoffed, “Do you honestly believe your father’s a doting parent? Maybe that’s how he used to be, but the Ghazali Corporation is in big trouble now. Your father needs my family’s help to get out of his predicament.“He could only offer his beloved daughter to me and my family. Don’t be upset, Ariana. What’s wrong with marrying me? How many others would kill to be in

    The room was in disarray while Xayne stood calmly in his initial position. Suddenly, he looked piercingly at Gary, holding a wine glass. The latter was pale, with sweat forming on his forehead.Xayne asked, “Can we leave now?”Gary’s mind was a mess.'That’s... Is he even human?'Xayne had single-handedly taken down all of Gary’s guards. The latter did not see how Xayne did it. Instead, Gary only saw a flicker of movement, and then his guards flew around like ragdolls.‘Xayne’s fighting skills are terrifying.’Gary panicked but was determined to be with Ariana tonight. He did not want anyone to stop him, so he smashed the wine glass and pointed at Xayne, roaring, “You’re just a worthless scum! Your family died five years ago, and you’re nothing but a waste now.“Why do you keep opposing me?! Do you think you’re tough? Let’s see if you can come out alive against these guys. Trifecta Tigers, come out and kill this bastard for me!”Immediately after, three fierce and dreadful aura

    Gary opened the video call on his phone, and the camera moved toward the bedroom. The first thing they saw was a large white bed with a woman lying on it. The camera zoomed in from the woman’s legs and moved to her slender waist before reaching her gorgeous face.Xayne’s mind went blank when he saw Serena. His eyes widened with despair and fury, wondering why she was there.Next, Abel’s disgusting and infuriating face appeared in the feed. He held his phone and lay beside Serena, boasting, “Hahaha! You didn’t see this coming, did you, Xayne? Your woman is beside me. Let me show you what she’s wearing tonight.”Abel slowly unfastened Serena’s windbreaker. “Wow, what a stunning woman. Tsk, tsk, tsk.”Xayne clenched his fists so tightly they creaked. His eyes emitted a murderous rage as his overwhelming aura filled the Renaissance Hotel.Gary, the Trifecta Tigers, Ariana, and the guards felt like they were in a stormy sea, tossing and turning.The Trifecta Tigers stepped forward to

    Xayne stretched his palm and clenched it into a fist. Under Alpha Tiger’s horrified gaze, a crisp sound echoed as Xayne smashed Alpha Tiger’s fist into pieces of flesh and blood.Splat!Immediately after, Xayne swung his left fist. His punch resembled a thunder strike as it slammed into Alpha Tiger’s chin.Bam!Alpha Tiger flew several meters and crashed into a massive stone pillar, shattering it to pieces. He felt the impact on his spine as it fractured. He could only lay on the ground and whine in anguish.Alpha Tiger spat a mouthful of blood and lay in it, unable to move. Xayne only made one move to kill an Expert Warrior, shocking Gary and the other two Trifecta Tigers. Beta Tiger and Gamma Tiger were furious when Xayne defeated their brother with one hit."Die!" The two roared and attacked Xayne from two directions.However, an earth-shattering anger filled Xayne. He shot out the Ravenclaw dagger with his right hand, and it pierced through Beta Tiger’s chest, leaving a trai

    Xayne’s single question made Gary tremble, sweat pouring down his cheeks. Xayne had killed two of the Trifecta Tigers and made one kneel, yet not even a minute had passed.Gary was terrified, especially as he watched Xayne approaching. The latter’s dagger dripped with blood as Gary’s guards froze.'Is he even human?'This one-sided massacre completely exceeded everyone’s expectations.‘Isn’t Xayne an Expert Warrior at most? How did he trounce the Trifecta Tigers? They were the most notorious villains of the Central Plains.’Gary tensed as his heart pounded with fear. He shouted, “Stay away! I’m the heir to the Waltons, a first-class family in the city with a wealthy heritage and assets of over tens of billions! You and your family will face endless pursuit from my family if you lay a finger on me!”He kept moving backward until he had nowhere left to go. His back was against the floor-to-ceiling window while Xayne stood before him with the Ravenclaw dagger.Xayne looked at Gary,

    Xayne had taken Ariana to a hotel on the other side of town, where he asked for her car keys. Immediately after, he hopped into a red Porsche and sped away. It transformed into a streak of red lightning and vanished from Ariana’s view.She looked at the car anxiously as a sense of crisis enveloped her heart. She could not shake the feeling something terrible was about to happen.'Abel…'When a sudden realization struck her, she hurriedly called Xayne. However, his phone line was busy. She quickly sent him a text with a simple plea, “Please don’t harm Abel! He’s my brother!”Ariana felt drained when she sent the text. After all, she did not know how tonight would end. At that moment, she knew Xayne had become an inferno of uncontrollable rage. If Abel had committed something unforgivable, tonight might very well be his last night on earth.Meanwhile, Xayne called Ace and said, “Surround the Stillton Hotel now!”After hanging up and glancing at Ariana’s message, Xayne floored the a

    Abel whipped around, only to see Xayne bursting in furiously. Abel stood up and roared, “How did you get in here?!”'Did the Trifecta Tigers fail?'However, the response he got was a swing of Xayne's fist.Bang!Xayne charged forward, his punch slamming into Abel's face, causing a crack to echo through the room."Ahhhh!" Abel flew and crashed onto the ground. He clutched his bleeding nose and mouth, howling in pain. "My nose, my nose... Xayne, you broke my nose again! I just got it fixed! I’ll kill you!"Abel lay on the ground with a fist-sized bruise on his face. His nose had snapped again, causing blood to gush. Several front teeth broke, too.Meanwhile, Xayne ignored the wailing Abel. The former approached the bedside and looked at Serena's current state, immediately realizing Abel had drugged her. Fortunately, Xayne arrived in time. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.He pulled up a blanket and covered Serena, murmuring, “Why are you so foolish? Why do

    With a mere wave of Lyuben's hand, the entire Hundred Day Peak trembled violently. The ground rumbled with a deafening roar as countless boulders broke free, tumbling from the cliffs and crashing down in a chaotic cascade.The scene was beyond anything the crowd had ever witnessed.All eyes were locked on Lyuben, disbelief written across every face.Hundred-Day Peak was nothing more than an unremarkable hill nestled in the Kowoon Mountain, west of Drakonix. Yet, this insignificant peak was connected to the vast, sprawling mountain chain.And now, as it quaked beneath Lyuben's power, it felt as though the entire northern land was trembling in response.Birds erupted from the treetops, fleeing in terrified flocks. Beasts bolted in every direction as if some apocalyptic disaster was about to descend upon them."This… is this what they call the power of heaven?! I thought this kind of strength only existed in myths! Can a Divine Commander do this?!" Ammar's face turned ashen as his v

    The heat of summer still hung in the air, but something was off. Suddenly, the surroundings began to shift. The golden glow of the sun faded, replaced by a chilling autumn-like breeze. Leaves that had been lush and green moments ago now browned and crunched underfoot as they fell in slow, spiraling arcs. The change was so drastic, so surreal, it could only be described as supernatural."Feeling it now, Xayne?" Lyuben called out, his eyes glinting with pride as he stood atop the peak, his voice carrying the weight of absolute certainty. "We're the same age, but years ago, I could already command the world like this. And you? Even now, you can't do it. Admit it. You have no right to stand on the same stage as me!"Every word of Lyuben was filled with extreme arrogance, his eyes looked down upon all directions, and everyone under his feet seemed to be an ant. To everyone below, Lyuben was no longer just a man, he was something far more. A being who could bend the seasons to his will.N

    As soon as Xayne's words fell, he took a step forward and launched himself into the air. His body shot up like a rocket, soaring toward the peak of Hundred Days Peak.Lyuben tilted his head back, gazing up at the towering cliff with a faint smirk. Without hesitation, he followed. Unlike Xayne's explosive ascent, Lyuben rose smoothly, his body lifting off the ground like he was being carried by an invisible current. He drifted upward, light as a feather, exuding an effortless grace that left the crowd below awestruck."Unbelievable! Did you see that? It's like he's being lifted by the wind!""Lifted by the wind? No, that's ascension!""Looks like Lyuben's the stronger one here!"Whispers rippled through the crowd as onlookers exchanged glances filled with wonder and disbelief. Hearing the chatter below, Lyuben's face lit up with smug satisfaction."Xayne, take one last look at this world's splendor. It's the last time you'll ever see it! In my eyes, you are not worth mentionin

    "Xander! Xander! Xander!" The crowd cheered.All eyes turned toward him, their gazes a mix of disbelief and shock. For decades, rumors had circulated that Xander was dead. Yet here he was, standing right in front of them. He'd aged, sure, but his presence was calm, commanding, untouchable."Looks like everyone decided to show up today!" Xayne's eyes swept over the crowd, landing briefly on Emin and Death God. His gaze lingered just long enough to send a message, one only they would understand."Xander!" Emin's eyes burned with rage as he glared at Xander."Come on, Emin, don't lose your cool. Today's not about us old-timers. It's about watching these kids go at it. No point in us getting involved. Besides, with so many people here, it'd be a shame if innocent bystanders got caught in the crossfire," said Kenichi, rising from his chair with a smooth, practiced smile but there was a hint of killing intent in his eyes.Zoro's breath caught in his chest. He hadn't expected things to e

    "Who's that guy? Rolling up with that much security?" Ammar glanced at the convoy at the foot of the peak. Even a helicopter hovered above, following the guards. There were at least a hundred bodyguards and they were all moving with precision, scanning the area."That's Roman Roland. Second heir of the Roland family. This guy's no small fry. He's the head of the most notorious crime syndicate in Eukrania. Controls multiple multinational corporations as fronts for his operations. He is a very dangerous person." Yves's eyes narrowed as he explained to Ammar.No sooner had he finished speaking, another convoy rolled up. The car doors opened and out stepped a tall, broad-shouldered man. His presence hit like a shockwave."Why is he here?" Yves asked, his voice dropping to a cautious murmur."He is…" Ammar asked as he glanced at the man that just arrived."Victor Valentine. The founder of Dark Arrow, the world's largest assassin syndicate. The guy's a legend. Escaped from maximum-secur

    If it weren't for Yves's status, Zoro would have already made his move against him."Very well. Just don't regret it later, Mr. Zoro! I'm done here," Yves snapped, his voice sharp as broken glass.He spun on his heel and strode out of the Eastin estate, his steps echoing with each firm impact. From the balcony, Lyuben's eyes followed him with a sneer."Scared now, are we? Pathetic," Lyuben muttered, shaking his head.Zoro's cold gaze lingered on Yves's retreating figure, his expression unreadable but his presence oppressive. The air around him seemed to freeze, each breath turning crisp as frost.That night, crowds began gathering at Hundred Days Peak. They came early to claim the best vantage points for the coming showdown. No one in Drakonia wanted to miss this monumental clash.Even Jean couldn't stay away. He flew in from Folksworth, bringing with him a private entourage of twenty supporters from the Leng family. Their sole purpose was to rally behind Xayne and cheer him on.

    "Zoro, I'm sure you've heard the rumors by now. The emperor is making moves, troop deployments, shifts in strategy, it's all happening right here in Drakonix. You know what that means just as well as I do. If there's any way to stop the duel tomorrow, I'm here to offer you some advice: Don't hurt the harmony between the Eastin family and the emperor," Yves said, his tone sharp with urgency.Zoro let out a dry, mocking laugh. "If I'm hearing you right, Yves, you're here to plead for Xayne, huh? Funny. Where were you when Xayne killed a member of my family? Flamey's body wasn't even cold before he'd moved on to his next target. And now, you expect me to show mercy? "It's too late, Yves. Some arrows, once drawn, can't be put back in the quiver. So, save your breath. This conversation is over! Please leave!" Zoro's face was like stone, cold and unmoving. Any trace of patience or courtesy had vanished. It was clear he had no intention of giving Yves an inch.Everyone knew the emperor ha

    Chad's sharp, hawk-like eyes suddenly flared with intensity, his cloudy gaze cutting through the air like twin beams of light."Elder Chad, earlier, you mentioned something about 'no borders in kickboxing arts.' I'm afraid I'm not following. Could you explain what you meant?" Lyuben stepped forward, a mix of curiosity and concern etched on his face.Lyuben's words hung in the air. His confusion wasn't surprising. Over the years, White Blossom Mountain's dealings had grown more secretive, and any talks with external forces, like the Light Order, were always behind closed doors. Lyuben's mind, however, was focused elsewhere, on the future of the Eastin family and his ambitions.To him, his family's legacy and his rise in power mattered far more than any grand philosophy. As someone raised within the closed walls of White Blossom Mountain's teachings, even his feelings toward his parents were tepid at best.Chad's voice came slow but firm, like the steady toll of a great bell. "There

    Meanwhile, at the Eastin family's estate, Zoro and his grandson, Lyuben, stood on either side of an elderly man.Seated across from the elderly man were none other than Emin and a middle-aged man dressed in a sleek black suit. The man was none other than the Death God of Fusion, a figure as infamous as he was mysterious, second only to Kenichi from Fusion.It was said that decades ago, he had already become Radiant Commander and reached a height that the world had looked up to."Emin, the agreement between us, or rather, the agreement between White Blossom Mountain and Light Order, it's time we discussed its fulfillment, don't you think?" the elderly man began, his voice low and deliberate.This elderly man was Chad Moet, the liaison elder for White Blossom Mountain's dealings with the secular world. It was he who orchestrated the clandestine pact between White Blossom Mountain and the Light Order."Elder Chad, the Light Order has always kept its promises. The benefits promised to
