Chapter 650
Author: Blanco Burn
When Serena called, Tim was busy depositing more than a hundred thousand dollars in cash Shaun and the others had brought to his small safe in the office.

When he heard Serena’s question over the phone, he smiled and calmly said, “Yes, I’m well aware of that. Mr. Shaun and his team have been old friends of the family. That 20% defect rate is the lowest in all of Shalholm’s renovation market. You should work well with Mr. Shaun and his team, all right?”

Serena frowned and said, “Mr. Shaun said he wants to procure some materials on their own. How do you feel about that?”

“That’s okay. Just trust Mr. Shaun, okay? He’s experienced and won’t make mistakes. Serena, this cooperation with the Linford Group is the most important for our family business. Mr. White’s project hasn’t started yet, so you shouldn’t take the decoration design of these malls lightly.

“You must entrust it to experienced people like Mr. Shaun. You should learn more from him, understand?” Tim smiled and sipped his tea

    “Yeah, we’re just waiting for the materials to get started. What are we supposed to do without them? We may as well go home and get a good sleep.”“Quick, sign the document. We can start working once the materials arrive.”Serena felt immense pressure when faced with the workers’ clamor. She looked to Xayne for support, then said through gritted teeth, “All right, I trust you, Mr. Shaun.”Shaun smiled and said, “That’s right, Ms. Serena. Come, you can sign here.”Several supervisors smiled cunningly at that moment. As Serena was about to sign, Xayne grabbed her hand and said, “I think there’s something wrong with the document.”Everyone fell silent. Shaun, his fellow supervisors, dozens of workers, and even Serena looked at Xayne suspiciously.Shaun’s expression darkened as a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes. “You better watch your words, Xayne. What’s the problem with the document? You don’t understand anything as just a mere in-law. You shouldn’t speak without knowing anythi

    Shaun’s expression darkened as he looked at Serena and asked, “What does this mean, Ms. Serena? Is your husband representing your decision, or is it the Swift Group?”“Mr. Shaun’s right. A freeloader like you has no right to make decisions.”“You must sign the document today, Ms. Serena.”Several supervisors began to lose patience. If Serena took the document back for verification, it would expose many problems and shady dealings. They wanted Serena to sign under pressure and make her responsible should things go south.The workers rolled up their sleeves with fierce expressions, glaring and shouting at Xayne.“Who the hell are you to intervene?!”“You must have a death wish! We’ll beat you to death if you say another word.”“Damn this freeloader for meddling in our affairs!”Serena realized the workers were about to get physical. She stepped forward and apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Shaun. I’ve decided to verify the document before signing it.”Shaun sneered upon hearing Serena

    Tim wanted to curse Xayne, but the call abruptly ended. The former erupted in a fury, exclaiming, “Damn it! How dare that idiot hang up on me!”Xayne tossed the phone to Shaun and then took Serena’s hand, saying, “Let’s go home.”Shaun furiously scolded, “Who said you could leave?! You will sign this document today, whether you like it or not!”The workers behind Shaun surrounded Xayne and Serena. The latter was frightened, especially since she felt exhausted now from the aftereffect of the rosemary incense from last night.Xayne glared at the workers holding wrenches, hammers, and other tools. He smirked and said, “You seem desperate, Mr. Shaun. Are you resorting to violence?”Shaun scoffed. “You’re not qualified to talk to me! Ms. Serena, sign this document, or you can’t leave!”Serena was shocked when faced with Shaun’s threat. She finally realized that he and the others had ulterior motives. She shouted, “How dare you force me to sign! It seems there is something wrong with t

    Serena cowered behind Xayne as the menacing workers approached. Xayne’s expression turned cold as he stared at the workers charging at him. He then kicked toward them.Bang! The kick landed on the leading worker’s abdomen, sending him rolling on the ground. Then, he crashed into a wall with a thunderous impact, causing it to crack. It was an intimidating sight for the others.“Wh-what—”The workers exchanged shocked glances, none daring to step forward.Xayne continued to stare at them as he said, “I don’t want to resort to violence, but you shouldn’t underestimate me.”Shaun became enraged, roaring, “Attack him together, everyone! What are you afraid of? Break his arms and make him kneel!”“Yeah! He’s just one guy! Let’s go!”“Finish him off!”“Charge!”The workers rushed forward in a frenzy as they aimed their hammers and wrenches at Xayne. If the workers were dealing with an ordinary person, they would have knocked him down and made him beg for mercy. However, they were d

    Suddenly, Xayne kicked Shaun’s shoulder, knocking him down. He then stepped on Shaun’s chest and towered over him. “What do you intend to do to my wife and daughter?”“Ahh!” Shaun let out a miserable scream and squirmed, wailing in pain, “Let me go! You’re going to break my ribs! Gah! I was wrong, damn it! I won’t do anything. Please spare me, Mr. Xayne…”Shaun panicked as he grimaced. He felt like his chest was about to explode. The fear of imminent death caused him to pee himself.Xayne said coldly, “If you want to live, confess everything about your collaboration with Tim. Remember, not a single lie, or you’ll spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair.”He then lifted his foot on Shaun’s chest and stomped on his right hand. Shaun’s hand felt like a truck was crushing it."I'll talk, I'll talk! Please spare me, Mr. Xayne..." Shaun begged for mercy. The other supervisors were terrified by Xayne's methods even to utter a word. Xayne was too violent.Next, Shaun confessed to eve

    The Swifts’ discussions filled the entire hall.Vivian was the first to stand, her face turning red as she scolded, “Don’t make baseless accusations, Serena! Why would you frame your uncle?”Vivian kept glancing at Eric, trying to conceal her inner turmoil. However, her anxiousness grew increasingly apparent.Sophia also stood up and pointed at Serena. “What do you mean by this? Are you trying to sow discord within the family by framing my dad? Where’s your evidence? Grandpa, Serena’s resorting to dirty methods to go against us.”Eric turned solemn as a hint of coldness flickered in his eyes. “Serena, you should consider those claims. If there’s even a hint of falsehood, the rest of the family will scorn you. Not even I can save you then.”Tony anxiously approached Serena and stood beside her. He signaled her with his eyes, saying, “Don’t mess around. Apologize to your aunt and grandpa. This isn’t something to joke about.”“Serena, stop harming the family!” Violet expressed her c

    “Eric, you can’t let this slide. The company doesn’t just belong to Tim. We built it with hard work and dedication.”“He’s right, Eric. You must confront Tim.”Eric looked aggrieved when faced with everyone’s fury. He crumpled the material list and glanced at Vivian and Sophia. “You two didn’t know about this?”The somewhat panicked Vivian and Sophia exchanged glances. The latter said, “Grandpa, you should believe such claims. Serena must’ve fabricated them.”“What do you mean?” Eric frowned.“Yeah, she must’ve fabricated them. My dad has never done such a thing,” Sophia insisted.Suddenly, an urgent yell sounded from the entrance. Tim had rushed home, sweating as he glared at Serena and Xayne. Tim then stood humbly before Eric and said, “Dad, you have to believe me since I’m your son. Why would I do something that would harm the company?“Serena is vile for fabricating such things. I’m innocent. You can check my bank accounts and properties. I promise they’re clean.”The famil

    Eric’s furious roar echoed, causing Tim’s legs to weaken. He knelt in the living room and pleaded, “Dad, I didn’t—”Eric slapped him and scolded, “Do you think I’ve grown senile? I’ve ignored many things for so many years, all because you’re my son and the company’s successor. You just can’t control yourself, can you? Serena even found out about… Are you trying to ruin our family?”“Dad, I was wrong.” Tim panicked and cried.Eric leaned into his chair and felt himself getting riled up. He said, “Return all the money from your little treasury to the company’s account.”Tim hurriedly responded, “Right away, Dad.”Eric scoffed. “Reflect on your actions!”With that, he got up and left the living room, leaving Tim kneeling alone. Once the older man left, Tim’s sorrow turned into a sinister expression. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth as he muttered, “I won’t let you get away with this, Serena and Xayne.”On the way home, Serena seemed sad. “Xayne, why won’t Grandpa believe

    Andrea's eyes burned with killing intent so tangible, that it sent a shiver down Kaleo's spine. Before Kaleo could utter a word, Andrea's palm swept out like a storm, and the seductive woman clinging to Kaleo exploded into a mist of blood. The rest of Kaleo's followers screamed in terror, their arrogance vanishing instantly. They dropped to their knees one by one, shaking like leaves in the wind. Kaleo's face turned ghostly pale. His beloved woman had just been erased from existence before his eyes. Fear flooded his veins, cold sweat pouring down his back. "Okay! I'll kneel!" He frantically nodded, his pride shattered. With a loud thud, he dropped to his knees before Xayne. But even as he knelt, his voice trembled with resentment. "Xayne, do you dare accept my kneeling?" Even now, he couldn't fully accept his defeat. "Why wouldn't I?" Xayne's gaze was icy and indifferent, as if Kaleo was nothing but an insignificant ant. To someone like Xayne, Kaleo wasn't even worth co

    Kaleo sneered, his voice laced with condescension. "Mr. Andrea, this is an internal matter of Drakonia. I don't think you need to interfere, do you?" He had intended to invoke his father's name—Killian—to establish some rapport with Andrea, hoping to sway him with authority and lineage.But before he could utter another word, a sharp crack split the air. A loud slap echoed through the valley, silencing everything in its wake. Kaleo never expected Andrea to strike so swiftly or with such ruthless force. His body was flung backward, three teeth scattering like shattered pearls before he crashed to the ground in a graceless heap.Despite his arrogance, he wasn't a nobody, he was still the heir of an outer battleground powerhouse. For an ordinary Tri-Divine Commander, a slap like that would have completely deformed their face. But Kaleo only suffered surface wounds. His pride, however, took the deepest cut. Gritting his teeth, he staggered to his feet, rage burning in his eyes as he gla

    That jarring voice instantly drew the attention of tens of thousands of people. Xayne had just slain four of Eukrania's top warriors. Anyone in their right mind wouldn't dare talk back to him now unless they were tired of being alive. At the foot of the mountain, a group of young men and women strolled arrogantly through the kneeling nobles. Their extravagant presence stood out even more against the humbled crowd around them. Xayne's gaze turned cold as he looked at the young man leading the group. He let out a mocking chuckle. The young man scoffed, his voice laced with contempt. "Xayne, don't think that being a Radiant Commander makes you invincible. Compared to the real powers in the outer battlegrounds, you're nothing." His gaze darkened as he took a step forward. "The man you just killed was the Saxon envoy for the higher forces in the outer battlegrounds. Do you have any idea what you've just done?"He let out a sharp breath, his frustration evident. "The warriors of Drakoni

    A few nobles even ripped off the silver spear emblem symbolizing Alovandrio's authority and stomped it into the ground. "Xayne, you can't kill me! I represent the Saxon tribe in Eukrania! If you kill me, they won't let you walk away from this!" As soon as Alovandrio said this, every Eukranian noble in the room snapped their heads up, their eyes burning with hatred as they glared at him. Over a thousand years ago, the Saxons brought devastation to all of Eukrania. Those beasts who walked on two legs didn't spare children; wherever they went, they left nothing but scorched earth and blood. It wasn't until the rise of the Frannon King that the Saxons were finally driven out of Eukrania. "Kill him!" "End him!" "This bastard!" Angry shouts erupted from the crowd below. It wasn’t just Alovandrio’s identity that enraged them—it was the crushing realization that for over a thousand years, Eukrania, once proud of its so-called superior civilization and intellect, had unknowin

    Arthura watched in horror as the Ravenclaw Dagger shot toward his chest. Desperate, he raised the Sword of Victory to block the attack. But in the next instant, the dagger pierced straight through Excalibur, continuing unhindered as it stabbed deep into his chest. His eyes widened in shock."T-This… you… how do you have the power of a Tri-Radiant Commander?!" Even in death, Arthura could not comprehend what had just happened. Xayne was clearly only a Senior Radiant Commander. It was impossible for his strength to suddenly leap by two whole levels.Xayne's cold voice rang out. "You don't need to know."The Ravenclaw Dagger spun in mid-air, then shot forward again, piercing Arthura's back. In an instant, his body exploded into a mist of blood, vanishing into the wind. Even his holy armor shattered into countless fragments, scattering through the sky. Four Radiant Commander powerhouses, the strongest warriors of Eukrania, were all eradicated within mere seconds.The crowd below fell to t

    Xayne had been using them to test his formations. A mere Senior Radiant Commander had toyed with four Bi-Radiant Commanders as if they were nothing more than training dummies. It was the ultimate insult—especially for Alovandrio. In his thousand-year reign, not a single soul had ever dared to treat him as mere practice during a battle. Yet before thousands of witnesses, Xayne had humiliated him without hesitation."So, that's all you've got? Now… it's my turn." Xayne clasped his hands behind his back, his tone calm and utterly arrogant.Andrea felt cold sweat trickle down his spine. Thank the heavens he had not interfered. If he had, he would already be dead. Xayne was no saint.The battlefield fell into an eerie silence. Arthura hesitated, his thoughts in turmoil. 'Xayne… hadn't even been injured? Since when had a Senior Radiant Commander become this powerful?' He and three other Bi-Radiant Commanders had used every technique at their disposal, yet they had failed to even scratch t

    For Andrea, this decision was equivalent to severing ties with the great families of Eukrania—perhaps even facing exile from the Keil family itself. But no matter how much he tried to convince himself, he simply could not act. Xayne was nothing like he had been on the open sea. Many of the terrifying techniques Andrea had personally witnessed back then had yet to be used.He refused to believe that Xayne had been truly cornered. Even though he could not understand why Xayne was not fighting back, he knew Xayne's true power was beyond imagination—especially that mysterious golden barrier. It had the power to block almost any attack in existence. If Xayne truly wished to, he would not need to endure this siege at all."Andrea! If you don't act today, you'll be the greatest traitor in Eukrania!" Arthura roared.Andrea clenched his jaw, closing his eyes momentarily. But even then, he could not bring himself to move. Even if it meant being branded a traitor, he would not take that risk.As

    "What?!" Dakura broke into a cold sweat. His body flickered into a blood-red shadow, retreating hundreds of meters in an instant. Below, the gathered warriors stood in stunned silence. No matter how one looked at it, Xayne should have died. Yet reality had defied all odds. First, Arthura’s Sword of Victory had been repelled. Then, Dakura’s Blood Sword had been instantly dissolved. It was incomprehensible.The Lion King halted his blade mid-strike, eyes locked onto the red glow surrounding Xayne. He was unharmed. But everyone could see that Xayne was completely trapped. He could not escape the time lock. He could not fight back. At this moment, he was a lamb awaiting slaughter. All they needed to do was break through that red glow, and victory would be theirs."Die!" Alovandrio lunged, thrusting his silver spear forward. It streaked across the battlefield like a comet, aiming straight for Xayne’s heart. A deafening impact shook the heavens. Sparks erupted from the clash, and the prote

    The moment the colossal sword fell, the entire mountain range trembled violently. The towering peak split cleanly in two, a massive chasm nearly a kilometer wide ripping through the center, sending avalanches roaring down its slopes. Every spectator shuddered involuntarily.Within the glowing barrier, Xayne was aging. His jet-black hair turned silver in the blink of an eye. A sharp realization struck him—it was a time-lock formation. Beneath his feet, a massive circular pattern flickered to life, shifting between red and white. A yin-yang symbol spun in an endless cycle, draining his vitality at an alarming rate. A wave of deathly stillness spread through his body. At the same time, from the center of his chest, a pure white light burst forth—it was "The Cycle of Life and Death." The same force he had once sensed in Kulun.The White Dragon's Heart unleashed an unprecedented surge of power. No matter how time tried to erode him, the lifeless aura surrounding him preserved his remainin
