Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 942
Soon, Xayne received information about William. The foreign business team had planned to invest in a comprehensive commercial complex in Shalholm. It had an initial estimated investment of seven hundred million dollars.Such a substantial investment would attract many wealthy local families to seek cooperation with them. It seemed Tim’s visit earlier was related to this matter. After some thought, Xayne decided to let Serena give it a try."Honey, there's a foreign business team planning to invest in Shalholm. You should talk to them." Xayne entered the living room and suggested it to Serena, who was still reading."A foreign business team?" Serena raised her brows, looking skeptical. “I’ve never dealt with foreign investment teams before. Besides, I don’t think I can secure such a significant investment. I don’t even have a job now. Who will I represent in the negotiation?”Xayne smiled. “Didn’t we discuss this earlier? You can be your own boss and represent your company.”“My co

Willam was even more astonished when he heard Xayne’s words.‘It seems the Drakon Queen once saved the Drakon King’s life. No wonder he married her.’William said earnestly, “Rest assured that I will handle this cooperation well.”Xayne nodded and took another sip of tea before leaving the cafe.Two days later, he set out with Serena. She sat behind him on his small scooter. She wore some light makeup that day.Serena asked curiously, “Honey, where are you taking me?”Xayne smiled. “You’ll know when we get there. It’s a secret for now.”Soon after, he brought his wife to a commercial building. After parking the scooter, he led her straight upstairs. Xayne smiled as he showed his wife the still-empty office area. “This is the new office for your company.”Serena looked around the space before her, full of surprise, as she asked, “Is this where our new company will be?”Xayne walked forward and looked at Serena thoughtfully. He placed his hands on her shoulders and said, “No, it

When Serena turned, she saw Tim and Sophia approaching with unfriendly expressions. Still, she addressed them out of politeness, “Uncle Tim, is there something you need?”Tim’s expression darkened as he glanced at Evelyn, asking, “What are you doing here, Serena?”“We’re here to discuss business, of course,” Evelyn interjected with a hint of disdain. She had learned about her boss’s past and various rumors regarding the Swifts. She harbored profound resentment toward the family.Sophia questioned Serena, “What kind of business are you here for? Aren’t you unemployed?”“Hmph, Ms. Serena has started her own company.” Evelyn rolled her eyes. She despised Sophia, who seemed to enjoy bossing people around.Sophia and Tim were stunned and exclaimed in unison, “You did what?!”Tim quickly realized what was happening and interrogated Serena, “So that’s what you’ve been up to. Is that why you refused to return to us? It seems you’ve been scheming against us. Are you here to negotiate with
Xayne Xavier, The Ironclad Protector Chapter 945
Serena surveyed the area and thought there were easily over a hundred people. She and Evelyn could not even squeeze in. Instead, they had to stand outside and watch anxiously from a distance.Evelyn was concerned, asking, “Um, what do we do? There are way too many people. How long do we have to wait to see Mr. William?”At that moment, Tim and Sophia brought along two well-dressed men to the hotel. They arrogantly glanced at Serena and Evelyn, who were waiting behind the crowd.Tim had his hands behind his back as he chuckled and said, “Serena, you can wait here the whole day. Sophia and I have invitations.”He proudly displayed his invitation to his niece as he spoke.Sophia crossed her arms and laughed disdainfully. “Do you think starting a small company makes you a boss? What a joke. You’ve got a lot to learn in the business world. Take your time to learn about it.”The duo entered the hotel through a side entrance. They even passed the two foreign bodyguards’ verification. Be

The entire venue fell silent. Nearly a hundred people had their eyes on Serena. They had been waiting here for a whole day, and yet they hadn't seen Mr. William's assistant. However, the foreigner invited a woman to discuss matters with William in such a respectful manner.It was simply unbelievable."Damn! Who's that woman? Mr. William actually personally invited her for a discussion?""I vaguely remember her. She seems to be from the Swift family.""Serena! I know her. She's the daughter of the second son of the Swift family. Isn't Tim there too? They are here as well."With the discussions of the crowd, Serena's identity was revealed, leaving everyone astonished. Tim and Sophia's expressions were constantly changing.'What's going on? Did Mr. William actually invite Serena to go up? What just happened?'Serena was bewildered. She looked at the foreigner in front of her with suspicion and asked, "Are you calling me?"The foreigner politely replied, "Yes, Ms. Serena, it's you.

"Damn it! Dad, what the hell is going on? Why is it Serena again?!" Sophia stomped her foot in anger.Tim questioned solemnly, "Was it because of Xayne?"Sophia was enraged. "Impossible! He's not the Supreme Commander of the Northern Plains anymore. Besides, Mr. William is a foreigner. Even if he were the Supreme Commander of the Northern Plains, it wouldn't matter!"Tim nodded, his expression turning cold. Suddenly, he burst into laughter. Seeing her father suddenly laughing, Sophia asked with suspicion, "Dad, what are you laughing about at a time like this?"Tim said, "Silly girl. Since Serena secured the collaboration with Mr. William, it means our family secured it as well!"Sophia paused, then caught on. "Dad, you mean—"Tim continued, "No matter what, Serena is still a Swift. Although she left, blood is thicker than water. As long as we talk nicely, our family can take the lion's share of the collaboration with Mr. William.""Right!" Sophia clapped with a sly smile.Tim s

Sophia was stunned and frustrated. "Dad—""Kneel!" Tim shouted.Sophia reluctantly knelt and bowed. She then apologized to Serena and Xayne, "I'm sorry. I was wrong just now. I apologize to both of you."Standing aside, Tim immediately put on a smiling face and said, "Xayne, are you satisfied now? My daughter has already apologized."Xayne nodded indifferently and directly led Serena away.Behind them, Tim hastily called out, "Xayne, Serena, I'll visit you tomorrow to discuss collaboration!"Until Xayne and Serena were far away, Tim's face quickly darkened.Sophia also quickly stood up, angrily shouting, "Dad, why did you make me kneel? It's so embarrassing! She's just a lowlife. Why should I?"Tim turned his head, glaring at her coldly. "Do you think she's still the old Serena? Can't you see that she no longer acknowledges our family or even me as her uncle? Let's go home. We'll tell Dad about this."He got into the car and returned with Sophia.At that moment, Eric was sitt

"Dad, how's Grandpa?" Serena asked with a concerned look on her face. After all, he was her grandpa, and she couldn't help but worry.Tony shook his head with a sigh. "Not good. They're still trying to save him.""Hmph! Serena, how do you have the nerve to come here? It's all because of you that Grandpa had a heart attack!" Sophia suddenly rushed out, pointing at Serena and scolding her.Xayne's face darkened, and he spoke in a cold tone, "Sophia, mind your words."With just one sentence, Sophia trembled all over, taking a few steps back in fear. Then, she continued to shout, "What, Xayne? Do you want to start a fight here? You used to be the Supreme Commander of the Northern Plains, but that's not the case now. Don't try to intimidate people with your authority."Xayne frowned. Tim immediately stepped forward, glaring coldly at Sophia, and said, "Enough!"Then, he looked at Serena with cold eyes, saying, "Serena, Grandpa collapsed entirely because of you.""Me?" Serena was pu

"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

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
