Soon, Draven's men arrived at the villa and took away Bob's body. The next evening, Tyson took the initiative to invite Tim to the temporary residence at the villa. Tyson finally broached the subject as they ate and drank, discussing company matters. "How was the task I entrusted you to do?"Tim smiled confidently. "I hired a very reliable hitman. With his extensive experience, there shouldn't be any issues."Tyson nodded. "I trust your abilities.""His name is Bob, ranked 72nd on the hit list. Have you heard of him?" Tim asked with a smile.Tyson shook his head. In his eyes, these hitmen were just his underlings. He only needed to pay them. They would become his tools, swords, and guns. He had no need to remember their names.Tim laughed awkwardly and took a sip of wine to cover up his embarrassment. Just then, his phone rang. Glancing down, he saw it was a message from his butler."Oh! Look at this, my butler is calling. He must have good news to report," Tim said, eager to boa
Almost simultaneously, hundreds of top-tier assassins locked onto the bounty, planning their journey to Drakonia. Although the number of hitmen seemed vast, they were scattered across the globe and were not gathered in one place. Moreover, there were only so many flights to Drakonia each day, making it impossible for unified screening.At the same time, Xayne, unusually, glanced at the Dark Network's website and naturally noticed the bounty on his head. "Oh? That's interesting," he muttered. Just as he logged into his account, countless messages from sponsors flooded in. Some tasked him with assassinating high-ranking officials overseas, others with eliminating his competitors, and some wanted him to deal with other candidates."You're offering such a low price. It's hard for me to help," Xayne complained before replying with a simple "Not interested." Yet, these two sentences stirred up a storm on the hitmen forum. They knew the Culu King, who ruled the assassination network, ha
Xayne had been studying the remaining content of the Heavenly Tome since returning to Venzor. He repeatedly reviewed the medical skills section, practiced some lost kickboxing techniques, and even trained in assassination techniques.After just a few days of contemplation and practice, Xayne felt that his strength had improved once again. To test himself, he sought out Draven for a sparring session."Drakon King, I won't hold back!" Draven stood on the villa's lawn, visibly excited and eager. They all admired Xayne and naturally wanted to spar with him to see where they fell short.Today, with the opportunity to spar with Xayne, Draven would not let it slip by. Without hesitation, he dove straight at Xayne, throwing a powerful punch aimed directly at his face.The force behind the punch was tremendous, swift, and lethal, capable of overwhelming even a Legend Warrior. After all, Draven was a Celestial Warrior.However, much to Draven's astonishment, Xayne did not budge. He calmly c
Next, Xayne continued to ponder over the contents of the torn manuscript. Meanwhile, Draven went out for a while before returning to the villa, his expression turned grave. He said to Xayne, "Drakon King, I just found out that Tim and Tyson arranged the assassins who targeted you a few days ago.""Tim and Tyson?" Xayne frowned at the mention of these names as he carefully stowed away the torn manuscript.Then, he laughed coldly, saying, "The Bullard family is quite something. They dared to extend their hands to the Swift family, trying to use them against me.""What should we do about it, Drakon King? Should we arrest Tim and the others?" Draven asked.Xayne frowned, saying, "No rush, let's wait and see. I want to see what kind of trouble Tim and Tyson can stir up."After that, Xayne left the villa and went straight to Serenco. Recently, the company had been dealing with the final affairs, planning to evacuate from Venzor in two days and relocate to Folksworth."Honey, are you do
As Xayne rushed into the building, he was met with a stream of people rushing out, covering their mouths and noses, each screaming in terror, their faces smudged with soot and panic.Against the tide, Xayne made his way through the crowded stairwells, heading toward the rooftop.Inside the entire building, smoke and terrifying flames filled the air.Finally, Xayne reached the floor where Serenco was located, and the entire floor was engulfed in raging flames.In front of him, thick black smoke and towering flames obscured his vision.The temperature was unbearably high.Xayne had soaked himself before entering. He covered his mouth and nose with a wet cloth, braving the engulfing flames as he charged into Serenco.He kicked open the door to Serena's office, and with a thunderous crash, the door shattered, followed by a blast of flames rushing toward him.The scorching blast sent Xayne flying several meters, crashing heavily into nearby furniture.However, Xayne paid no attenti
With those words, the dark figure vanished instantly from Xayne's sight.Xayne frowned as he looked at the sea of flames before him, quickly retreating into the office.Then, he rushed to the storage room, pouring the remaining buckets of water over Serena and himself.Afterward, he held Serena and turned to face the entire floor-to-ceiling glass window.He did not hesitate at that moment, striding quickly toward the floor-to-ceiling glass window. With a bang, he smashed through the massive glass window, holding the unconscious Serena, leaping from the seventh or eighth floor.In that instant, everyone on the street—the onlookers, the scattered crowds, and the firefighters battling the blaze—were all shocked by the deafening sound overhead.They looked up to see a figure carrying another person, crashing through the glass curtain wall from the seventh or eighth floor and then leaping down.At that moment, the shattered glass refracted colorful hues in the sunlight.Because of
With just one sentence, the atmosphere in the entire hospital room plummeted. Xayne gently touched Serena's delicate face, stood up, turned around, and said to Draven, "Muster a thousand soldiers from the Northern Plains Military Headquarters to guard the hospital!" "Yes, sir," Draven responded. Then, Xayne stepped out of the hospital room. In the corridor, almost half of the prominent figures from Venzor stood anxiously at the door. "Commander Xayne, is Ms. Serena alright?" Kenneth rushed over, his face filled with urgency. Behind him, Chuck and Harold also hurried over, asking, "Commander Xayne, what's the situation?" "Mr. Xayne, if you need me, just give the order. Even if it requires the entire military throughout the city!" Harold declared. Xayne glanced at the group of people before him and calmly said, "Serena is fine, just unconscious for the time being. You all should go back for now. If there's anything, I'll inform you." With that, Xayne walked straight throu
However, his hands were bound in handcuffs, so he couldn't struggle. "You... Let me go!" the man shouted in agony. At that moment, he felt like he was suffocating. "Speak! Who ordered you? Who's behind all this?" Xayne roared. The fury in his eyes seemed to burn through the entire interrogation room. "Hehe..." The man chuckled grimly, "I won't tell you... Even if you kill me, you won't find out... Your wife will be a vegetable for the rest of her life! Hehe..." Xayne frowned and said in a low voice, "You're asking for it." The next moment, he slammed the man against the wall. The entire wall shattered instantly, embedding the man into it. He spat out some blood, still looking at the enraged Xayne with a cold smirk, "Yes! The angrier you are, the happier I am! To make the King of the North so furious, it's worth dying for! Hahaha!" As he watched the man laugh maniacally before him, Xayne's eyes flashed with a chill. Suddenly, he let go, and the man fell to the ground.
