Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 744
The Swift Group executives and family members were shocked to hear that."So it was her!""What a despicable woman. Is she trying to destroy us?!""Mr. Duncan, take her away and punish her! We must give the public an explanation!"The company executives erupted into accusations. Serena was dumbfounded, her face trembling. She desperately tried to explain herself, but no one would listen, “No, I really didn’t!”Duncan scoffed and waved, signaling his men to take Serena away.The media outside exposed Serena's acceptance of a hundred and fifty grand in bribes and the use of substandard materials. It stirred up a frenzy of public opinion online and throughout Shalholm City.The enraged citizens cursed, and the families of the injured workers unfurled banners outside the Swift Group, demanding an explanation and strict punishment for Serena.…Meanwhile, Tim held an urgent press conference with the remaining company executives and family members.At the conference, the emotional

Tim watched as Eric left. Then, he turned to Tony with a sinister smile. “You and your family aren’t allowed to go anywhere until the authorities complete the investigation.”"Tim, that’s..." Tony was bewildered.Tim shrugged Tony off and left with Sophia and Vivian. The other family members followed suit.After reaching home, Sophia exclaimed, “Dad, I never expected Serena to partake in bribery.”Tim calmly sipped his tea and said, “Heh, this incident is very advantageous for us. Once they prove Serena guilty, all her projects will be ours, including Mr. White’s three-million-dollar one. We must secure it as soon as possible.”"Exactly! Serena brought disaster upon herself this time." Sophia revealed a cold and scheming smile.Meanwhile, at Osbo Pharmaceuticals, Curtis was having tea and chatting with a robust middle-aged man. The former anxiously asked, “Mr. Alec, how’s the job going?”The burly man with short hair smiled and said, "Mr. Curtis, rest assured. My people are reli

Xayne furrowed his brows upon hearing of Serena’s arrest. He asked sharply, “What happened?”Deuce explained the details of the incident, causing Xayne’s expression to darken. “Someone must’ve set her up. Let’s visit the construction sites.”Xayne bid farewell to Bruno and quickly arrived at one of the construction sites with Deuce. However, the site already had police lines around it, prohibiting entry to anyone unrelated to the incident. Xayne frowned and called Harold.After learning about the situation, Harold was in disbelief. “I’m on my way, Supreme Commander.”Simultaneously, he used his phone and issued orders to the patrol officers guarding the cordoned-off site, “Let those two men in!”The officers were stunned and promptly allowed Xayne and Deuce to enter. While the duo inspected the site, Harold arrived to inform Xayne about the relevant details, “Supreme Commander, I just received the news about this myself.“Five departments jointly enforced the safety incidents. Th

“Wh-what?! The Supreme Commander wants to see me?” Duncan was flabbergasted. He wondered why someone like that would want to see him. After all, the two had no connections at all.Soon enough, Duncan arrived at the construction site. When he saw a man with Harold nearby, he knew the former was the Supreme Commander.Duncan approached the duo and saluted. “Duncan Wardolf at your service, Supreme Commander.”Xayne glanced at him casually and asked, “Are you in charge of investigating the safety incidents concerning the Swift Group?”Duncan was stunned, not understanding why the Supreme Commander suddenly cared about such a thing. Still, Duncan respectfully replied, “This safety incident involved joint enforcement by five departments, and I’m the commissioner for this operation. What are your orders, Supreme Commander?"Xayne nodded, then said, "My people will handle all the evidence and clues from this safety incident."Duncan trembled as he looked at Harold with a puzzled expressi
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 748
Half an hour later, the authorities brought several young men with dyed hair and tattoos into the station. The young men were clamoring, “Hey, what are you guys doing? Why are you arresting us?”Duncan opened the door and entered, followed closely by the stern-looking Xayne. The latter had his hands in his pockets as he said coldly, “You have one minute to tell me who hired you.”The young men were the ones who snuck the counterfeit materials onto the construction site. They were disdainful toward Xayne. One chuckled and said, “Are you trying to intimidate us? We don’t know what you’re talking about.”“Yeah! Who do you think you are?!”“We’ve been in this interrogation room countless times. You don’t scare us!”The young men were arrogant, showing no respect for Xayne. At that moment, he glanced at the wall clock and said, “Thirty seconds.”The young men panicked and exchanged glances. One shouted, “Who the fuck do you think you are?! Let us out now. You can’t just arrest people

Tim grew cold and stern as he pondered the news. On the other hand, Tony brimmed with excitement and sighed in relief.Meanwhile, Curtis erupted in a fury as he sat in his office. He called Alec’s phone but suppressed his rage before asking, “Alec, what the hell is going on? Wasn’t your plan supposed to be foolproof? How did this happen?”Alec and his Seven Tigers Order were watching the news when Alec received the call. He answered it and said, “Mr. Curtis, someone stepped in to help the Swifts.”Curtis roared, “I don’t care about that! What do we do now? I paid you a hundred and fifty grand to handle it properly.”Alec’s expression darkened as he played with something in his hands. “Don’t worry, Mr. Curtis. I’ll handle it cleanly so it won’t affect you.”With that, Alec hung up the phone. He gloomily gazed into the courtyard as he sat in his chair. Outside were dozens of his disciples practicing kickboxing. “Hank, find out who helped the Swifts and kill that person. Anyone who s
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 750
The disciples gasped in horror as they looked at Deuce. They exchanged glances and hesitated to approach. After all, Hank was the strongest in the Seven Tigers Order, having already reached a Master Warrior level.Elite families of Shalholm would have sought him for help, yet he could not withstand a single punch from Deuce. The latter had even shattered Hank’s right arm.The disciples had no idea how formidable Deuce was. They did not even dare to speculate as cold sweat formed on their foreheads.Meanwhile, Xayne approached the center hall, with Deuce following closely. The former swept his gaze across the room, causing the disciples to retreat with each step he took. They continued to retreat until they reached the steps of the central hall.Finally, Alec raised his brows and glared at the duo. Alec remained seated as he shouted, “You deserve to die for invading the Seven Tigers Order and attacking my beloved disciple! Whoever defeats these two men will become my disciple and th

‘Supreme Commander? Isn't Xayne just a worthless in-law of the Swift family?'Alec stopped overthinking it. He sneered sinisterly and said, “I see how it is. You’re arrogant and have a death wish. Fine, I’ll grant it to you!”He entered the courtyard and stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Xayne with disdain, saying, “I’ll give you ten moves. I’ll tell you who hired me if you can touch me within those ten moves.”Alec’s choice of words was conceited. Little did he know, no one would dare challenge the Northern Plains’ Supreme Commander. Xayne was just a freeloader in Alec’s eyes. Alec had looked into Xayne’s identity long ago, so he was unafraid.The only thing that puzzled Alec was Deuce’s presence. Still, Alec did not care. As he pondered how to torment Xayne next, the latter casually said, “There’s no need for that. If you can defeat me in one move, you can kill or maim as you please.”Alec grimaced when he heard that. He then shouted, “You’re too much, punk! I’ve

"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
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
