Xayne wiped out several military squads. At that point, it was already deep into the night. He lurked in a thicket, eating biscuits he had stolen from the mercenaries’ dead bodies. Meanwhile, he observed the silent and empty area ahead.

Before him was a stretch of grassy and rocky land that stretched for kilometers. However, there was nothing he could use for cover. He knew it was a dangerous place as he looked up at the sky and sighed.

Soon after, he crouched in the bushes and awaited the right moment to move. An hour or two into midnight, dense clouds appeared in the sky and covered the moon, making the place much darker.

‘This is it!’

Xayne dashed into the vast grassland, constantly weaving through it. Occasionally, he would lean against some large rocks to rest and observe his surroundings.

Meanwhile, a captain on the other side observed the grassland through an infrared telescope. He found no anomalies and glanced at the sky with a frown. Suddenly, he signaled his men by wavi

    Flame King’s expression turned solemn as she said, “I understand. You may leave.”“Yes, sir,” the deputy replied before leaving.Flame King remained seated as his gaze turned sharp. He directed his voice toward the door, “Since you’re here, come in and take a seat.”Xayne slowly appeared at the door and entered with a murderous aura. He stood before Flame King, asking coldly, “Did you send those mercenaries?”Flame King did not hide it. “Indeed, I did.”“Why?” Xayne asked.“Because you’re the former King of the North.”“You know, you can’t kill me even if you relied on those mercenaries.”“I know, but I’d like to try.”“Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you right now?”“You wouldn’t dare.”“Why not?”“Because you have a wife and child. Killing me will be a crime of treason, and all of Drakonia will condemn you. Your wife, child, and those you cherish will become enemies of the nation because of you.” Flame King smirked, already determining that Xayne would not dare harm him.Xay

    When Serena stopped at the traffic light, Coco asked, “Mommy, why didn’t Daddy take me to school today?”“What’s the matter? Don’t you like it when I take you?” Serena looked at her daughter through the rearview mirror.“Daddy can protect me.”“So can I, sweetheart.” Suddenly, a loud bang echoed, causing Serena to shudder. She quickly turned to her daughter and asked, “Coco, are you okay?!”Coco looked panicked as she sat in her safety seat. Still, she shook her head and said, “I’m… I’m okay, Mommy.”Serena frowned as she looked past Coco and through the rear windshield. Someone had rear-ended her car. When the traffic light turned green, several cars honked. The annoying noise irritated everyone.“Coco, sit tight. I’ll go out and take a look.” Serena unfastened her seatbelt and got out of the car to inspect the damage.A delicate-looking woman came out of the other car and frantically apologized, “I-I’m so sorry! I’m a new driver, you see, and… I-I pressed the wrong pedal!”Se

    Xayne had heard of the Green Venoms before. He heard that influential figures were pulling the strings behind the scenes. That was why members of the Green Venoms could act lawlessly over the years and make a name for themselves in various circles.Although the Green Venoms had taken many lives, they still thrived.Xayne’s gaze turned cold as his subordinate said, “Sir, the others have already picked up the missus and are on their way back.”“Excellent work.” Xayne tapped the desk as if counting down. Two minutes later, his subordinate reported again, “Drakon King, we’ve located the woman from the scene. She parked her car in front of a bar.”“Which one?”“Ninesphere Bar on Xanston Street.”“All right.” Xayne seemed quiet, but a raging fire burned in his eyes. He stood up and made a slicing motion. It was a signal to kill. Even his subordinates, who had grown accustomed to seeing him face overwhelming odds, felt a different anger from before.It was as if a volcano was about to

    "Are you the owner of Ninesphere Bar?" Xayne asked as he cautiously surveyed the area."Me?" The woman's voice deepened. "That would be too much of a compliment. No ordinary person can handle this bar."Suddenly, a light appeared on the second floor before a graceful figure emerged from it. Xayne looked up, unable to see the woman's face clearly. However, he knew it was the woman who had rear-ended Serena’s car."How does it feel to be hurt by your own bar sign?" Xayne asked, using the reflection on a piece of glass to find a path to the second floor.The woman countered, "Don't think you've won just because you got a hit in. Our confrontation has only just begun. Forget about everything else. Consider what you should do now that your daughter’s in our hands."Xayne smiled faintly. He enjoyed unpredictable situations. Suddenly, he leaped up and ascended to the second floor by relying on the dim light. He then landed gracefully before the woman."Ah—" The woman gasped in surprise.

    Xayne knelt and took the ring from the dead woman’s right finger. He examined the ring in the light and saw a line of engraved words on the inside—Blood Moon. It was the woman’s code name among the Green Venoms.Xayne pocketed the ring and left the bar, closing the door behind him. He then called his subordinates and told them, “Clean up the bar.”He noticed the remaining half of the broken sign and added, “Find a reason to acquire this bar.”Soon after, he drove to 48 Leclou Street. On the way, he took a deep breath and whispered to himself, “Don’t worry, Coco. I’m on the way.”The morning rush hour was still ongoing. People and cars crowded the roads, causing Xayne to get stuck between Leclou Street’s intersection and the main road, delaying his arrival. Since that was the case, he exited his car and ran into Leclou Street.There, he realized the street resembled more of an alley instead of a street. Old-looking houses were along the surroundings. Xayne glanced at a nearby house

    Xayne looked carefree yet unruly, even picking up an apple from the table. Instead of eating it, he simply scrutinized it and said, “You’ll all die now.”Suddenly, he hurled the apple at a table with candles on it. The still-burning candles toppled and ignited a piece of fabric.“Who are you?” The five men gathered as one of them grabbed the back of Coco’s neck, occasionally glancing at the burning table.The room slowly became uninhabitable as the flames spread. If the fire continued to spread, everything would burn to ashes. Meanwhile, one of the thugs held the usually obedient Coco by her collar. Still, she was no longer afraid as she focused on her father.Earlier, Xayne had signaled her not to make any sudden movements. She understood that she should not shout in this situation.“Who am I?” Xayne approached with a smile. “I’m the one who’s here to send you all to hell.”“Is it just you?” The thugs were surprised.Xayne found them amusing. “Yeah, it’s just me against five of

    “You must be eager to die, you motherfucker! Let go of my brother!” A burly man with a fierce aura roared and grabbed his two axes on his back. He then stomped and charged at Xayne, slashing at his neck.Xayne frowned and exuded a cold aura.Bam!He kicked Metal Maw’s buttocks, causing the latter to crash into a wall. Immediately after, Xayne avoided the two axes. The burly man was furious as he chased after Xayne, shouting, “You can run, but you can’t hide! It’s time to die, kid!”Boom!The man’s ax struck the wall, causing stones to fly in all directions. Each swing narrowly missed Xayne’s neck, limbs, and torso. After several failed attacks, the burly man grew frantic.Suddenly, Xayne’s body surged with killing intent, and his speed skyrocketed. He vanished and then reappeared behind the burly man. Xayne then punched the burly man’s back. Despite the seemingly simple punch, it contained immense force that could shatter a tank.Bang!The burly man flew and crashed into a pill

    Xayne plunged his dagger into the man’s skull.“No!” The remaining four glared at Xayne angrily. Even so, he calmly approached Metal Maw and asked, “What’s your choice?”Metal Maw trembled after making eye contact with Xayne, thinking he resembled the devil. The former’s fear intensified as he looked at his dead brother. Metal Maw could no longer bear his sorrow and knelt on the ground to beg, “Please spare me, sir! I’ll talk, okay?”“How could you betray our employer, Metal Maw?!”“You lack a backbone as one of the Five Elements! You deserve to die!”“If you speak, we’ll haunt you if we die!”Suddenly, Xayne flung his dagger at one of their necks and sliced it open.Plop!The man stared at Xayne wide-eyed as he clutched his gushing neck. He then collapsed in a pool of blood, convulsing continuously. Metal Maw’s fear intensified as he hastily bowed and pleaded, “Spare me, sir! I’ll tell you everything. We only received this mission from our organization. We don’t know who our e

    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
