The words hung in the air, and the meeting room fell silent. Everyone stared at each other, wide-eyed, completely unaware of where Xayne found the audacity and confidence.

"If you can't secure deals with all five material suppliers, Serena will resign, and Sophia will take charge of this project. You will also have to leave the Swift residence," Eric said coldly.

"Okay," Xayne replied calmly.

Violet and Royce, who had been sitting quietly, were now alarmed.

"Xayne! What are you doing? Why did you agree to this? What does it have to do with you? This is my daughter's problem, and Serena hasn't even agreed. Who do you think you are?" Violet exclaimed, shouting at Eric. "I disagree! This loser can't speak on behalf of my daughter!"

"Exactly! He has no right to speak for my sister!" Royce added, glaring resentfully at Xayne.

Sophia and her parents smirked and remained silent.

Xayne approached Serena, who wore a face full of sadness. He said, "Trust me."

With tears in her eyes, Sere

    "Hmph! What can a loser like you, who has been disowned by our family, bring to us? Nothing but a series of jokes!""I suggest we immediately remove Serena from her position as the lead for the collaboration with the Linford Group!"In that instant, the Swift family members reveled in anticipation of the consequences Serena would soon face.Serena sat there, overwhelmed with nervousness and fear. She anxiously glanced at her phone, silently praying that Xayne's assurances were true. However, an hour had passed, and despair began to seep in. She pondered, 'Could it be that Xayne was lying to me?'Violet, sitting to the side, let out a disdainful snort. "Serena, I've been telling you all along that Xayne is unreliable! But you wouldn't listen! Now, look! He still hasn't shown up, and you're here to face everyone's anger. You should just divorce him and let me set you up with a wealthy man."Royce joined in, mockingly laughing at Serena. "Serena, stop waiting and start packing your b

    Without a moment's hesitation, Eric urged everyone, "Let's move! We need to go out and greet them immediately!"The senior executives of the Swift Group and the Swift family members swiftly grasped the gravity of the situation. They took a collective breath and prepared to rise, ready to extend a warm welcome to the five chairpersons.However, the five chairpersons strode into the meeting room, accompanied by their assistants. They were dressed in brand-new and impressive attire.As they entered, a palpable tension filled the room. These individuals represented the foremost companies in the Shalholm construction materials industry. Collectively, the assets of their companies surpassed three billion dollars, a staggering twenty times greater than the value of the Swift Group. Their financial power made them untouchable by the Swift Group.What added to their intimidating presence was their affiliation with DominionCorp, under the leadership of Chuck Lavy, the richest individual in S

    "Could it be Xayne's doing?"The meeting room filled with speculation and discussion as everyone pondered the question.Eric snapped out of his surprise and rushed over to Serena, filled with excitement. He took five contracts from her hands. "This is incredible! Our company has secured material supply from these five conglomerates. It will give us a foothold in Shalholm! Serena, you're amazing. Well done!"Still a bit dazed, Serena suddenly remembered Xayne's words from yesterday. She wondered, 'Are those five Xayne's friends? But they're much older than him... Does Xayne have another identity?'Violet quickly approached, wearing a smile. "Eric, make sure you keep your promise. Serena secured collaboration with these five material suppliers. Her position as the project leader shouldn't change."Eric, still filled with excitement, reassured her, "No changes, no changes." Then he turned to Serena and said, "Keep up the good work. I have high hopes for you!"In contrast, Sophia and

    Xayne couldn't help but let out a laugh. "Well, they have some connection to my family in the past. I reached out to them for a favor this time, and they agreed to help out, probably because of their previous ties with the Xavier family. But hey, let's not dwell on that too much. Just focus on giving it your all and don't let me down, okay?"Serena's eyes filled with grateful tears as she heard his words. She mustered a smile and said, "Thank you, Honey. I really appreciate it."With an awkward grin, Xayne scratched his head. "No need to thank me that much. I'll go check on the soup."In no time, Xayne approached the table, carefully balancing a steaming pot of freshly cooked cream of chicken soup. "Voila! Our homemade cream of chicken soup is ready!"Coco eagerly settled into her chair, her eyes locked on the tantalizing pot of soup. She couldn't contain her excitement and exclaimed, "Mommy, Daddy made it! I want a bowl!"Indulging her daughter, Serena dished out a bowl for Coco,

    A burly, bald man, clad in a trench coat and puffing on a cigarette, emerged from the midst of the crowd. He removed his sunglasses and briskly wiped them with his coat, exposing a glimmer of gold teeth as he flashed a menacing grin at Ruben Mendoza. "Mr. Mendoza, it appears my warning from yesterday failed to make an impression on you. What's the matter? Do you truly believe you can challenge me with this pitiful group of yours?"Before Ruben could utter a word, Serena stepped forward, a pleasant smile adorning her face. "Hello, I'm Serena Swift, in charge of the factory business here. How much money do you want to put an end to this?" Serena held a naive belief that money alone could resolve the problem.Instantly, the bald man became captivated by Serena's beauty. Today, Serena appeared stunning as usual, and the touch of light makeup accentuated her allure even more."Well, well, you're from the Swift family, huh? Serena? Haven't heard much about you, but that's alright. You're

    Upon hearing Xayne's words, Ruben responded with a concerned expression on his face. "Sir, Baxter Webb is notorious around here for being ruthless. He has a gang of about a hundred guys working for him. He's been to prison before and has connections in the underworld. He extorts money from all the factories in this area, and no one dares to speak up. He's the vengeful type, even for the smallest offense."You beat up his henchmen today; he won't let it slide. How about you and your wife go back first? If you're not here, Baxter Webb probably won't do anything to us."Serena, feeling anxious upon hearing this, immediately interjected, "We can't just leave like that. Since things have already happened, I'll face it and resolve it."After speaking, she turned her head toward Xayne and said, "Xayne, you should go back and hide for now. I'll handle this, and they probably won't cause any trouble with me here. If things get worse, I'll call the police."Xayne chuckled and shrugged. "If c

    "Chief Saun, what happened to make you so angry? Who was that on the phone just now?" A subordinate spoke up, shattering the tense silence.Harold turned around, casting a glance at the people below and let out a disdainful snort. "Angry? Nah, I'm not angry! I'm scared, damn it! In front of that guy, I'm nothing but a nobody! With just a word from him, the whole damn town of Shalholm could be thrown into chaos!"Even Linford Haith and Kenneth Selby, the big shots, wouldn't dare to lift their heads in his presence! Have you all forgotten what went down with the Golding family? That was all thanks to that man! And now his wife's factory in Terrence's jurisdiction has been hit and trashed by those goons over yonder!"How many brain cells do you have to lose to get it? You useless morons! Worthless pieces of crap! I've been telling you time and time again to beef up security around here, but all you know is how to mess around!"Terence couldn't bear it any longer, struggling to grasp t

    The factory workers were terrified as the renowned Baxter Webb stood before them. Behind him were over a hundred fierce-looking henchmen with weapons. It was something ordinary factory workers had never seen before, so it was natural for them to feel terrified.Some of the workers were so frightened that they ran away.Baxter held a cigar as he approached Xayne and his group. The former unbuttoned his coat and shrugged, causing it to drop when one of his henchmen swiftly caught it.He had an angular face that exuded an imposing aura. With his cigar between his fingers, he exhaled a puff of smoke and looked at the workers before him, asking, “Which of you laid hands on my men just now?!”His voice echoed throughout the factory as the workers exchanged glances before looking at Xayne.Xayne replied, “It was me.”Baxter turned to look at Xayne and puffed his cigarette, ordering, “Break both his legs! I want him to kneel before me.”He sounded as if he had done this many times. Sudd

    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
