Chapter 656
Author: Blanco Burn
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

When he appeared in the parking lot, Sophia and Ethan were enthusiastically discussing the events of the day. Suddenly, they spotted Xayne. "Xayne? What are you doing here?"Sophia's face looked unpleasant, her tone arrogantly cold, filled with mockery and disdain.Xayne turned his head to glance at her, casually saying, "I'm here to pick someone up."Upon hearing this, Sophia immediately burst into sarcastic laughter. "You came to the airport to pick someone up? Xayne, you must be kidding. Who would you even come to the airport to pick up? No way. You're not here to pick up Mr. Bruno, are you?"Suddenly, Sophia sneered.Xayne smiled sarcastically. "How can you be so sure that I'm not?"At these words, Sophia and Ethan both froze for a

They all carried countless tricks up their sleeves, refined through years of battle. Now, as an endless swarm of blood-red phantoms filled the sky, Xayne frowned. He had read about this technique in the Heavenly Tome—the Blood Phantom technique.On the surface, it appeared as a mass of shifting shadows, but the real body was hidden somewhere within. It was both an advanced illusion and a deadly attack. A single misstep would be fatal. There existed only one way to counter it—one chance to strike the real body. If he failed, the consequences would be dire. The sea of blood-red figures surged toward Xayne, their forms flickering and blurring as they closed in.Nearby, Alovandrio and Arthura exchanged amused glances, entertained by the spectacle before them.

    A suffocating pressure filled the air, pressing down like an iron weight. Andrea’s heart pounded as he hurriedly spoke, his voice edged with urgency. "Honored elders! I mean no disrespect—I only seek reconciliation! The champions of the outer battleground are returning. If—""If?" The Lion King interrupted with a cold sneer, his tone laced with contempt."If the champions of the outer battleground return, the first person they will kill is you!" King Arthura’s voice was like a blade, sharp and merciless. "You stood by and let Eukrania’s royal bloodline be butchered! Do you even realize the weight of your crime?" His gaze bore into Andrea, unyielding and filled with contempt. "When Xayne first set foot in Eukrania, you should have driven him out at all costs! Instead, you welcomed the wolf into the fold. Worse still, you dared to speak in his defense. Calling you a traitor would be an understatement!"Cold sweat dripped from Andrea’s face. Under the piercing gazes of four Radiant Comma

    A thousand years had passed, yet he had not aged. At the level of a Divine Commander, every warrior understood one undeniable truth—once one ascended to the rank of Radiant Commander, time itself would halt. Their faces would never wither, and their youth would remain untouched until the day of their death.It was no wonder Alovandrio was hailed as the greatest legend in Eukranian history. His presence alone commanded awe, a living testament to power beyond mortal comprehension. By his appearance, he could have been no older than thirty when he first achieved Radiant Commander status.He may not have ascended as early as Xayne, but his accomplishment was no less extraordinary. A thousand years of existence, a millennium of unmatched dominance—his very name inspired absolute reverence across the land."Indeed, he is Alovandrio," one of the elders murmured. "But even a Bi-Radiant Commander is not truly immortal. If he fails to ascend to the rank of a Supreme Radiant Commander within the

    The three Bi-Radiant Commanders bowed in unison. The entire battlefield fell into stunned silence. Even those who had no idea who this man was were left shaken by the sight.King Arthura himself had just addressed him as "Your Majesty.""Who is that man?!""If even King Arthuraa shows him such respect, then he must be a truly terrifying figure!""He looks so familiar… Wait—could it be Alovandrio?!"A gasp of pure disbelief tore through the crowd. All eyes snapped toward the final arrival.A man in his prime, standing tall and proud, his waist-length hair billowing in the wind. In his grasp, a long spear, radiating a chilling brilliance.
