Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 736
Freddie was startled when he turned and saw the familiar face, accompanied by a chilling smirk. He glanced at the men behind Ralph, each armed and prepared."What do you want?" Freddie was somewhat intimidated, his voice trembling.Ralph just nodded toward Stark and said, "Stark, long time no see. Why are you so angry as soon as you come out?"Ralph did not expect to meet Stark when Xayne called him. Stark was the former leader of the Black Panther Group. However, Stark was mid-strike, and his fist was just an arm’s length away from Xayne’s face.A faint chill emanated from Xayne as Stark punched toward him. It was a sense of fierceness Stark had never felt before. Stark felt somewhat relieved that Ralph had arrived, allowing him to stop his punch in time."Ralph?" Stark turned and saw his old acquaintance. He glanced at the men behind Ralph and smiled self-deprecatingly. "I didn't expect the street rascal who used to hang out every day to have his own men. Not bad."Stark mainta

A loud crack echoed, followed by a scream that sent shivers down everyone's spine. Freddie just had both his legs smashed. He clutched his legs as his veins pulsed, and sweat poured down his forehead. Freddie was in agony and would have passed out if not for his regular exercises.Stark frowned at Xayne with a profound chill in his eyes. Breaking Freddie's kneecaps in front of him resembled disregarding his presence."You must have a deathwish," Stark said lowly.Xayne shrugged indifferently and said, "It's an eye for an eye. Didn't you used to do things like this before?"Swoosh!Stark suddenly attacked, his dagger aimed straight at Xayne's chest. The latter retreated and kicked Stark’s elbow. The double-edged dagger flew out of Stark’s hand and landed on the ground.Stark was surprised. He did not expect this seemingly ordinary guy to be so powerful. The former reacted quickly and kicked toward Xayne’s head.Xayne went for a powerful and forceful sidekick.Bang!A figure fle

Freddie trembled at Xayne's words. "Wh-what do you mean?”"Mr. Freddie, this is your fault. You should understand what I mean since you were trying to buy my limbs." Xayne grinned. "Simply put, your life belongs to me now. If you want to leave alive, you must pay for it."Freddie went weak in the knees, the pain from his kneecaps spreading throughout his body instantly. He threatened through clenched teeth, “We’re on Venzor’s Northern Street, where the Jensons are influential. None of you will leave here alive if you dare touch me!”He regretted bringing only Stark with him. None of this would have happened had he informed his people earlier."Oh, Mr. Freddie, you still threaten me even now?" Xayne patted Freddie's face repeatedly. "I have some business to attend to later, so I'll name the price. Nod if you agree. Otherwise, you'd have to stay here tonight."Xayne's eyes shifted, smiling."You...you can't do this! I don't understand what you're saying, and I don't have money!" Fr
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 739
"Smart move, Mr. Freddie. Now, 1.5 million for what's between your legs." Xayne patted Freddie's shoulder.Freddie burst into tears. "1.5 million?! I thought you said four hundred thousand.”Xayne shrugged. "Is 1.5 million too much? I think it's reasonable. You wouldn't want to become a eunuch, would you?""No! I disagree. You're raising the price for no reason!" Freddie shook his head. The asking price was too harsh.Even though he had a company with his dad's support and made quite a bit of money over the past few years, he had worked hard to earn it. Giving away 1.5 million was life-threatening. Suddenly, a crisp sound echoed as Xayne struck the ground with the iron rod.Xayne did not need to speak as his actions spoke louder.Freddie’s head buzzed as he clenched his thighs, affecting his kneecaps. The pain made him sweat profusely. "Okay, okay! I agree, I agree!" Xayne grinned. “Indeed, you’re a reliable businessman. Now, how about four million for your life? That’s not too

Xayne's expression darkened as he crouched down, gently grasping Serena's ice-cold hand. He asked, "Tell me who did this to you."Serena avoided his sincere and determined gaze. It seemed his seriousness left her with nowhere to hide. She could only say, "I-It was my uncle."'Tim?! That motherfucker!'Xayne’s gaze turned furious as he pressed for an answer, “Why did he hit you?”Serena felt helpless and anxious, saying, "There was an issue with the project. It's nothing serious. Don't worry about it."Serena feared Xayne might act recklessly. The latter frowned and caressed Serena's face. The vivid slap mark only fueled Xayne's anger. He asked again, “Is everything okay?”Serena held Xayne’s hand and nodded with a smile. “Everything is fine.”At midnight, Xayne sat on a reclining chair in the small courtyard and gazed at the stars. After ensuring Serena and Coco had fallen asleep, he called Deuce's phone. After all, Ace had already returned to Drakonix to investigate the Bullard

The company's executives and representatives were dumbfounded. They stared at Serena and Tim with horrified expressions."What's all this about counterfeit materials?""Oh no, this is bad! How much will the compensation cost?""Is this just about money? It’s over for us once someone with ill intentions exposes this!"Some anxiously voiced their concerns. Meanwhile, Serena was just as stunned. She opened the documents and saw some on-site photos and fake material numbers and specifications.“How could this happen?” She had ensured there were no problems before signing contracts with each factory. Everything happened too suddenly.Serena anxiously explained, "Uncle Tim, that’s impossible. I made sure the materials weren’t counterfeit before signing these contracts.”However, Tim coldly rebuked, "What's impossible about it?! The evidence is right before us, and safety incidents have occurred. Are you suggesting someone’s framing you?"Tim snorted and continued, "You are fully resp

Safety was a top priority in Drakonia. Any company experiencing safety issues would face thorough investigation and severe penalties. The lives of Drakonians were paramount.The five simultaneous accidents concerning the Swift Group were the most significant issue Shalholm had faced in the past year. When the media exposed the incident, it quickly caught the attention of Shalholm’s relevant departments and even the capital authorities.In less than half a day, Shalholm's safety supervision department, the enterprise management department, Shalholm's emergency management department, the Occupational Safety Department, and the capital patrol bureau took action.They dispatched commissioners to the construction sites where the accidents occurred to collect evidence. The five departments gathered and caused a massive public opinion storm.All of the Swift Group’s construction sites received orders to halt immediately. The relevant safety production and construction documents of the S

Serena panicked as she nodded. “Yes, I am.”"Are you in charge of these construction projects?" Duncan continued questioning.Serena answered truthfully. "Yes, I’m in charge.""Very well, please accompany us for the investigation," Duncan said, gesturing. Then, several patrol officers surrounded Serena.Serena exclaimed, "Mr. Duncan, there must be a misunderstanding! I signed for those materials. There can't be any counterfeit ones. I'm willing to guarantee my life. I wouldn't allow the use of substandard materials.""Guarantee with your life?" Duncan frowned. A subtle disbelief flashed across his eyes. "Do you entrepreneurs take life so lightly? Don't you find it ridiculous? "There are already five severely injured workers still in rescue. You’ve affected five families’ lives. Do you think you can just dismiss it by saying you didn't use substandard materials?"Serena had been in a daze from the start. She had only just learned about the safety incident."Cat got your tongue?

"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
Chapter 2687
"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
Chapter 2685
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
