Chapter 608
Author: Blanco Burn
Dox sneered. “Donovan can’t reach into Cassina no matter how powerful he is. Does he think Mr. Morena’s a nobody?”

Moreno was an underground kingpin who rarely showed his face. Still, he wielded immense power and a profound network. Most consider him the second in command in Cassina. Its underground forces were untouchable with him around.

“So, what does Donovan want?” Dox’s subordinate asked.

Dox frowned and answered, “Donovan said I crossed someone I couldn’t afford to and told me to go to Venzor and apologize to that person.”

“How dare he?! You’re no longer in Venzor, so what gave him the right to order you around?!”

“Yeah! Donovan can’t dictate to you when you’re here.”

“Dox, you’ve crossed so many people, so what’s one more, right?”

Dox took a shot of liquor and smashed the glass, declaring, “You’re right! Who the fuck is Donovan? He was my boss in the past, but no longer! I have my own men and influence now. Why should I listen to him?”

He touched the two nubs where his l

    Ace glared at Dox and then kicked him.Bang!Dox flew and crashed onto the sofa behind him. He then rolled along with the overturned sofa and groaned in pain while clutching his abdomen. He suspected the kick might have broken a few of his ribs.However, he dared not act arrogantly before Ace and the well-armed soldiers. Even someone as bold as Dox could not afford to be so reckless.Dox endured the pain and knelt, asking, “What did I do wrong, sir?”Ace stared at him and said, “Do you know Sebastian?”Dox was puzzled.‘What does this have to do with Sebastian? Did that kid snitch on me after my men failed?’“I do, sir.” Dox nodded, not hiding anything.“Did Sebastian hire your group to attack someone named Xayne? Did they threaten to break his legs?” Ace coldly asked while exuding an overwhelming aura.Dox was frightened but still nodded. “Yes, he indeed hired my men to do that. Sir, is Xayne—”“You’re not qualified to know who he is!” Ace scoffed and kicked Dox again. The

    Xayne crossed his arms indifferently. “Rest assured, someone will apologize.”Serena frowned and shook her head, saying, “Never mind. Just don’t say anything and listen to me.”“Sure.” Xayne nodded when he noticed Serena’s worried and anxious expression. Soon, the two entered the living room and felt the oppressive atmosphere.Blair and Sebastian narrowed their eyes at the couple. Then, Blair stood up and slapped Serena. It was sudden and caught Serena off guard. She could only take the hit.However, Xayne squinted and grabbed Blair’s wrist. He warned here, “I didn’t settle the score with you last time, and you already want more?”Boom!Immediately after, he radiated an intense coldness, catching Blair off guard. She shivered and took a few steps back, shouting, “How dare you act so tough, Xayne! Dad, look at this idiot!”Nigel yelled, “Xayne, are you threatening her?! We came to demand an explanation from you. What’s with your attitude?”Sebastian rushed over and shoved Xayne

    At that moment, Sebastian almost stumbled to the ground. Fortunately, Blair quickly caught him and whispered, "What's wrong with you?" Sebastian panicked, cold sweat prickling on his forehead as he struggled to stand. He yelled, "I... I don't know what you're talking about. Who's Dox? I don't know him at all!" At the same time, Sebastian felt uneasy. How could Xayne know Dox? What does he know?"Oh, you don't? Well, that's unfortunate. Dox says he knows you," Xayne said with a cold smile.Sebastian immediately shouted, "That's nonsense! I have no idea what you're talking about! Do you think you can just make up a name and accuse me of something I didn't do?" Then, he turned to Nigel and exclaimed, "Dad, did you hear that? What does Xayne mean? I don't understand what he's saying!" Nigel's face was dark, and he stared at Xayne as he told him off. "Xayne! Don't falsely accuse Sebastian of anything! I don't even know who this Dox person is that you're talking about!" Tim looke

    Instantly, Dox understood.Thud!He knelt before Xayne, pleading, "Sir, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have tried to harm you. It wasn't my idea. It was that brat Sebastian who told me to do it. He told me to find someone to bust your leg.""What?!"Serena was full of astonishment.Tim and Tony, sitting in the living room, frowned. The former demanded coldly, "Explain yourself!"Dox trembled. He dared not speak without Xayne's permission."Tell them, and make it clear," Xayne said calmly.Immediately, Dox said, "It's Sebastian. He gave me 15 thousand to find someone to break your leg!"At these words, Tony's face contorted in anger. He turned to Nigel and said coldly, "Care to explain this? How could your son-in-law hire someone to do such a horrendous act?"Hearing this, Nigel was also stunned. He turned to Sebastian and said, "Sebastian! What's going on? Did you do this?"Sebastian refused to admit it, crying, "Dad, how could I do such a thing? I don't even know this person! Xayne

    As his words fell, Xayne raised his hand and gave Blair a resounding slap on her face. This slap caught Serena off guard. Her eyes widened, and she covered her mouth in shock.Blair was bewildered as well. She touched her burning cheek, staring at Xayne with intense resentment, and screamed hysterically, "How dare you hit me?!"Blair then raised her hand in return, intending to return the assault. However, Xayne gripped her wrist and said, "That slap was for what you did to my wife yesterday. If you dare to raise your hand again, be prepared for the consequences."A single statement, laden with coldness, permeated the entire hall.Blair shivered inwardly, her composure in disarray, her expression a mixture of shame and indignation. Stomping her feet, she left with a parting threat. "Xayne, just you wait! All of you will get what's coming to you!" Only Sebastian remained. At that moment, he was terrified and attempted to crawl away. However, Xayne would not let him go so e

    Today's gathering was no simple affair. A well-built middle-aged man sat at the head of the table, smirking as he enjoyed the lamb stew. Ariana sat beside him with her arms crossed, exuding a cold demeanor, her eyes showing traces of impatience.Scanning the table, Xayne could tell that these eight individuals, including the man indulging in the stew, were no ordinary people. In the eyes of ordinary folks, they might pose a challenge. However, they were nothing compared to Xayne.Upon seeing Xayne enter the private room, Ariana's face lit up joyfully. Standing up, she said, "You're here! Why are you alone?" Ariana was somewhat speechless. She had just sent a message to Xayne, asking him to bring more people, but here he was, all by himself.Xayne, slightly puzzled, smiled and said, "Can't I come alone?" Unconcerned, he ignored Ariana's repeated glances and casually sat at the round table.Ariana, helpless, joined him at the table. Without hesitation, Xayne picked up the ute

    The atmosphere in the private room instantly grew chilly. Lionel's face turned dark and gloomy.This was unprecedented arrogance. This was the first time since Lionel entered the scene that someone dared to speak to him like this. Previously, he was the one teaching people lessons, causing families to fall apart and lives to be ruined. Today, this brat not only ignored him but also threatened to beat him up.Ariana's face darkened. Taking a deep breath, she glanced at Xayne and suddenly stood up. "Your call. Just don't hurt anyone," she said, walking to a window on the edge of the room, her back facing the table.She wasn't sure why she trusted Xayne so much. Maybe it was the reassuring pat he gave on the back of her hand under the table.Lionel sneered, staring at Xayne with a fierce intensity. He said, "Henry did say you're quite formidable. You truly are an interesting character! I wonder, with such arrogance, do you think you can walk out of here alive?"Xayne remained e

    The fifth guy ended up with a broken shoulder.The burly bodyguards, who moments ago exuded an imposing presence, now lay writhing on the ground, screaming in agony. Everything had happened so fast. Xayne had handled them in less than a minute.Even the two bodyguards at Expert Warrior rank had their arms broken instantly. Simultaneously, a swift kick sent them flying, crashing into the chairs, causing a thunderous shatter.Lionel's face darkened, eyes fixed on Xayne with a sinister gaze. This was the first time he felt such a strong and compelling aura from someone, a threat of death that permeated the air.He desperately roared, "Damn it! Do you know who I am? I'm the president of the Dark Knight Society. If you lay hands on me, you—"Before he could finish his words, Xayne turned around, predatory and swift. In an instant, he stood in front of Lionel, gripping his throat and lifting him off the ground."I'm not interested in who you are. All you need to know is that I'm Ariana

    "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
