Serena turned and saw the handsome young man. She was unsure at first and then exclaimed with surprise, "You... Are you Bradley Reese?!"

With a gentlemanly smile, Bradley made a heart gesture, saying, "It's me. I didn’t think you’d remember me."

He then hugged Serena. The latter was slightly stunned but politely reciprocated the hug before they separated. Her eyes were full of joy.

Bradley was her childhood playmate and her best friend. He had always treated her like a sister, especially during elementary and middle school. Bradley always protected Serena from adversity.

The duo were the so-called “Golden Boy and Golden Girl” back then. However, Bradley later went abroad with his parents during high school. More than a decade had passed since then. Unexpectedly, the duo reunited at the event, which excited Serena.

Similarly, Bradley was quite emotional. The “little sister” from his childhood had grown into an elegant and charming young woman. Her figure and looks met all of Bradle

    Bradley expertly concealed his emotions and offered a slight smile. In a gentlemanly manner, he shook hands with Xayne, saying, "Hello, I'm Bradley Reese."Although he concealed the coldness in his eyes, Xayne saw through his thoughts at a glance. Xayne extended his hand for a handshake and casually replied, "Xayne, Serena's husband."As their hands clasped, a subtle competition ensued. Still, Xayne appeared relaxed, while Bradley’s lips twitched as he quickly withdrew his hand. He chuckled and said, "Serena, I didn't expect you to be married. I naively thought you’d wait for me."Serena blushed slightly, hastily explaining, "Brad, we were just kids then. How do you still remember that?"Bradley smiled and said, "Haha, just kidding. By the way, what does your husband do? The man you favor must have an extraordinary background."Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Serena was about to speak when Royce rushed over and interjected, "Bradley Reese? Brad, is it really you?!"Bradley turned a

    ‘Ace is in trouble?’Xayne tensed and asked, "What happened?!"Quad immediately replied, "Ace was investigating the Bullards. He uncovered some clues and went to the Five Nations’ border, but it was all a conspiracy by the family. When Ace arrived at the border, Four Legends of the Five Nations and a hundred thousand soldiers surrounded him.“Since they outnumbered Ace, they managed to capture him. I received this information from Drakonix. Sir, you need to go to Volendam alone to negotiate with the Bullards if you want Ace to return safely. Otherwise, they’ll publicly execute him five days from now.”Xayne’s expression turned grave, and the anger in his eyes grew intense. Suddenly, a surge of killing intent erupted from him. He smashed the office desk and growled, “The Five Nations are a bunch of scoundrels.“My three hundred thousand Dragonbreakers Legion will break through and conquer their central city if they harm my subordinates. That’s my warning, as the King of the North,

    Bradley’s scream drew everyone’s attention. People then began murmuring and pointing fingers. Xayne’s sudden punch even startled Serena. She quickly grabbed him and said, “What are you doing?!”Xayne glanced at Bradley and said, “I was just teaching him a lesson.”Serena stomped in anger and hurried over to check on Bradley’s bleeding nose. She then glared at Xayne and scolded, “Why are you always so rough? Brad’s my childhood friend. We’re like siblings, okay? It’s not what you think.”Xayne was about to explain himself, but Bradley waved and said, “It’s okay, Serena. I’m okay. I’m sorry if I said some hurtful things. I just wanted you to have a better life. I didn’t expect Xayne to get so angry.”He then apologized to Xayne, “I’m sorry about saying all that. I didn’t mean any disrespect.”The whole hall was in an uproar.“Wow, that guy apologized after taking a punch like that. He’s so generous.”“Tsk tsk, that Xayne guy is so petty and impulsive compared to him.”“Yeah, a hu

    Xayne’s expression turned grim as he sat on the plane. Inside the cabin, Quad and several Northern Plains soldiers quivered as Xayne’s terrifying aura filled the surroundings. It sent chills down everyone’s spines.The plane soon landed at the military airport in Northern Plains. As soon as they disembarked, the number called again.“King of the North, you must go to Dragon Gate Mountain alone tomorrow. If we see any of your soldiers, we’ll publicly execute Ace. Then, you can only collect his corpse.” The caller hung up.Xayne looked solemn. He had just landed, and the caller already knew his location.‘Did someone expose my whereabouts? Is there a traitor within the Northern Plains?’Without much time to ponder, Xayne boarded a military jeep that sped toward the Northern Plains Military Headquarters. As he exited the jeep, a group of soldiers and officers in military uniforms rushed toward him.Leading them was a woman with a compelling presence. She had a gold star on the shoul

    Red Rose's expression softened as her eyes reddened. She said, "Sir, let me bring some soldiers and go with you."Xayne smiled and replied, "It's okay. I'll go alone. If I don’t return by sunset tomorrow, lead two hundred thousand Dragonbreakers Legion and Deuce to Dragon Gate Mountain. Exterminate the princes of the Five Nations and the Legends!"Immediately after, he stepped on the gas pedal. The military jeep roared, tearing through the asphalt into the night.Northern Plains was on Drakonia’s border. It was a land of dense forests and deep mountains. Volendam was a strategic location where Drakonia borders the Five Nations. The population there was only a little over a hundred thousand. It used to suffer from the wars of the Six Nations.Later, Xayne and the Dragonbreakers Legion intimidated the Five Nations, turning this place into a neutral zone and prohibiting all warfare.However, it did not mean others would not use dirty tactics in Volendam. In recent years, it had becom

    Xayne sped through the night and soon arrived at Drakonia’s border."Halt!" A whistle came from the front, and a searchlight illuminated Xayne. Three jeeps, two armored vehicles, and over a dozen armed border guards jumped out of the vehicles, approaching Xayne to conduct routine checks.Xayne slammed on the brakes, and the tires rubbed against the sandy ground, raising a cloud of dust. He then opened the door and got out. Xayne calmly lit a cigarette and then took a puff.Meanwhile, the border guards stood at attention and saluted, shouting with admiration and respect, “Salute! Welcome, Supreme Commander!”Their voices echoed throughout the open border area."My men, you've worked hard." Xayne smiled, walked a few steps forward, and handed cigarettes to the two leading officers. He then patted their shoulders and said, “Long time no see.”“Sir, we didn’t expect you to come back. There have been rumors about you leaving the Northern Plains. We were worried. After all, you’re our

    Through the telescope, one could vaguely see the bustling Volendam, where people flowed continuously.Mmilitary vehicles from various forces, along with disguised soldiers, were on patrol everywhere.The east and north gates, the two most crucial entrances to the town, had already been sealed off by the elite local forces within the town. Rigorous inspections were being conducted on anyone entering or leaving the town.Xayne observed this for a while, his expression turning serious.Following that, Xayne took out his phone and dialed a number he had called before.Soon, the call connected."I've arrived in Volendam. Where are you?""King of the North, you move fast. Our people will meet you through the east gate when you enter the town."Xayne looked at the Volendam in front of him. He was silent for a moment before turning around and jumping off the cliff, quickly disappearing into the darkness.Meanwhile, a few mercenaries had gathered inside the military fortress of Dragon Ga

    Having said that, he quickly walked to the guard post and dialed a number. "General Otis, the mission didn't go as planned. The King of the North didn't show up at the east gate. He used a body double to deceive us.""I suspected as much. The King of the North is not someone you can easily capture. Inform the men and stay vigilant. Activate drones to patrol the town, closely monitor any suspicious situations, and find the King of the North at all costs.""At once!"Just as Otis finished speaking, a burly figure entered the fortress gate. He towered at two meters tall, with thighs thicker than an average person's waist.His face was dark, and he spoke with a chill. "General Otis, you are being too cautious. Just let our ten Legend Warriors enter the town and finish him off. Why go through so much trouble? He's just the King of the North, and we are renowned international warriors. Even if he has three heads and six arms, there's no way he can walk out of the town alive."General

    Dean's wild provocations quickly drew a crowd of onlookers.At that moment, a striking young woman stepped forward, removing her sunglasses as she made her way through the throng.The woman was dressed in an elegant black gown, the hemline revealing a pair of flawless, slender legs that caught everyone's attention. Her expression, however, was haughty, as though she looked down on everyone around her.She was Deanana Lovorka, the heiress of the Lovorka family conglomerate. While not exactly a household name, she was considered a minor socialite in the upper circles of Drakonix."Manager Dean, it's been a while!" Deanana greeted casually.As someone who frequently traveled abroad for business, Deanana was a familiar face at the airport and she had crossed paths with Dean on several occasions.But she was not here for a casual chat with Dean. It was far from it.She had come specifically to see Xayne.This was, after all, the legendary King of the North. Just six months ago, he w

    "Do you have any idea whose luggage this is?" Aava asked coldly with a sharp and commanding tone.She was on the verge of revealing her special credentials—something she rarely used unless absolutely necessary. Xayne had been her hero, someone she deeply admired. The ridicule from Miodrag moments earlier had already pushed her to the edge, and now even a low-level airport staffer dared to humiliate him."Of course, I knew. Xayne, the King of the North six months ago; now he's just a regular civilian," the staffer replied with icy indifference. The staffer smirked. "Miss, do you think Xayne is still the mighty King of the North? There's no war, the capital isn't under siege, and he's utterly useless now. Take my advice—someone young and beautiful like you should stay far away from trash like Xayne. Get closer to someone like Young Master Dongfang instead. It'll do wonders for your future!"Dean swaggered over, cigarette dangling from his mouth, hands clasped behind his back. His ex

    Upon hearing those words, both Xayne and Aava paused in surprise, then frowned in unison.The VIP lounge was clearly still operating as usual. Inside, over twenty people were relaxing—some reading newspapers and sipping coffee. There was no sign of any "closure" or "disinfection."It was obvious that this so-called announcement was deliberately targeting Xayne and Aava."Manager Li, isn't this going a bit too far? That's Xayne—formerly the King of the North. He has special privileges to use the VIP lounge. If this gets reported to higher-ups, we could all be in trouble…," whispered one of the airport staff, cautiously approaching Dean."Higher-ups? Haven't you heard? Young Master Lyuben already gave the order—anyone who sides with Xayne will see their entire family wiped out." Dean sneered, exhaling a cloud of smoke as he lit a cigarette."And even if the higher-ups find out, what can they do?" Dean added mockingly. "I'll admit, six months ago, I wouldn't have dared cross Xayne. B

    Miodrag's laughter quickly caught the attention of onlookers in the bustling terminal. But their gazes were fixed not on him but on Xayne.The "King of the North" was a name nearly everyone recognized, yet no one dared approach him. Lyuben's warning had spread far and wide: anyone who got close to Xayne would face annihilation."Miodrag! What gives you the right to mock Mr. Xayne? Just hours ago, he was fighting on the front lines for this country. And you? What have you done besides indulge yourself in luxury?" Aava snapped with a sharp and clear voice."Heh, I pay taxes, don't I? Doesn't spending money generate tax revenue? Without people like me keeping the economy alive, what would Xayne have eaten in the north? Dirt?" Miodrag smirked, his tone dripping with mockery. He sneered and continued, "If not for us rich kids throwing around millions in donations every day, Xayne wouldn't even have warm dirt to eat!""Damn it! The nerve of that guy!""What's so special about the East

    "Is it true that Xayne captured the so-called 'Lord of Light' alive?" Lyuben remained calm as he was playing a grand piano in the lounge."Indeed! Word is, the Lord of Light's master, Master Emin, was present as well. However, Xander also made an appearance. My analysis suggests it was Xander who forced Master Emin to retreat, while Xayne crippled the Lord of Light." An older man lowered his head respectfully as he spoke, his voice tinged with urgency."Oh? Defeating the Lord of Light… he must have had a trick up his sleeve. Was it some kind of tactic or setup?" Lyuben asked without betraying a hint of emotion."It's said that Xayne specializes in traps and ambushes. Otherwise, Hiram and his crew wouldn't have met their end in that mansion. Master Dongfang, you mustn't underestimate him!""Hmm?!" Lyuben's eyes shot open suddenly, piercing beams of icy resolve radiating toward the older man.The man immediately lowered his head further, not daring to meet the gaze of the young lead

    "Lowes, what are you panicking for?" Zoro's cold gaze locked onto Lowes.Even though Lowes was several generations younger than him, as the head of the Bullard family, he had the status to stand on equal footing with Zoro."I'm not panicking, I just don't want to see more white funeral banners hanging at the Bullard family estate. If Xayne comes back and chooses to settle the score, do you think any of us can handle it? You might not know this, but back when King Quidie rebelled, even Klink didn't dare lay a hand on him," Lowes replied, his voice strained but steady.He paused, taking a long, slow breath to calm himself. "Put it another way, if Xayne comes for us, even KB Kings Circle won't step in to save us. If that doesn't scare you, then I don't know what will!"The air in the room grew colder. Lowes glanced around at the faces of the other family heads, hoping to see reason in their eyes. But then came a sneer.Zoro let out a low, disdainful chuckle. "Even if Xayne didn't die

    "Xayne!" Zoro clenched his fists so tightly. If anyone had a grudge against Xayne, the Eastin family's hatred was no less than that of the Bullard family. Not to mention, Flamey had been killed by Xayne not long ago. This blood feud had to be settled.The Big Four weren't some weak, defenseless prey that Xayne could toy with as he pleased. For decades, the Big Four had controlled the heart of the Drakonia's economy. Every senator, governor, and political figure had to show them respect. But since Iver's death, the Big Four had lost their glow. People who once bowed their heads were now looking down on them. The root of all this was because of Xayne.That's why, after Flamey's death, the Eastin family had no choice but to call upon their master, a man who had been living in seclusion for decades. Every bit of information regarding Xayne's trip to Egenda, his plans, his contacts, and even his flight schedule had been deliberately fed to Lord of Light.They made it clear that the momen

    "In the end, his ambitions were never realized. When he attempted to merge all five Dragon's Hearts, he died. After his death, the Dragon's Hearts vanished without a trace. That's why the Light Order has always kept a close eye on Drakonia, especially on the methods Commander Zedd used to track down those Dragon's Hearts," Joe explained.Hearing this, Xayne was utterly stunned. He had never imagined that over a century ago, Commander Zedd had possessed five Dragon's Hearts. That would have been a time when Drakon Destiny was on the rise. However, because of the failed fusion, Commander Zedd lost not only his life but also Drakon Destiny's, which declined, leading to the humiliations and defeats that followed over the next century."So you're saying the Dragon's Hearts are tied to the fate of a nation?" Xayne asked, his shock evident."Absolutely. Based on our research, there's no doubt about it. The fate of Drakonia is linked to the Dragon's Hearts. Every time someone successfully f

    In the VIP lounge of the airport, Xayne and Aava were waiting for their flight. Not long after, a tall, broad-shouldered young man strode in. He scanned the room briefly before his eyes locked onto Xayne and Aava. Without hesitation, he walked straight toward them. "Mr. Xayne, I'm sorry for the wait. I was sent here by Yves."The young man sized up Xayne, his eyes flashing with surprise when he saw that Xayne was completely unharmed. Word had spread about Xayne's clash with Lord of Light, a confrontation that even drew out a Radiant Commander figure, Emin. Yet here Xayne was, perfectly fine. It was hard not to be impressed.As Yves's right-hand man, Joe Zhird knew better than to underestimate someone like Xayne. His respect was evident in his tone and demeanor. With his status as the top lieutenant of Black Ice Platform, even the heads of prominent families would approach him with courtesy. But right now, it was Joe who was showing deference to Xayne, and this caught Aava by surprise
