"Wipe out the Xavier family?!" The Grand Elder’s face twisted in shock. With a swift step, he positioned himself in front of Serena, shielding her from Onyx."Onyx, do you realize what you're—" Before he could finish, Onyx's palm cracked across his face with a sharp, resounding slap.At that moment, Onyx held no trace of respect for the Grand Elder. Zeanid was dead. Xayne was dead. There was no one left to protect the Xavier family. Tonight, Onyx would destroy anyone who dared to stand in his way—man or god alike."Grand Elder, I’ve tolerated you long enough! Yet you insist on playing the wise old man, standing in my path! Do you not see? I am not the only one here to annihilate the Xavier family!" Onyx's eyes flared as he pointed at Colton, a cruel sneer on his lips."This man is from the Christy family—the descendants of the tomb keepers! Do you really think your so-called status carries more weight than theirs?!" He scoffed coldly."Let me make it clear—even if every elder of the

"Colton, you shameless bastard! I never thought the Christy family would produce such a disgraceful animal!" The Grand Elder’s voice trembled with rage, blood spitting from his mouth. Such vile behavior was beneath even common thugs, yet the Christy family had enjoyed centuries of privilege in the history of Drakonia. Colton’s words and actions shattered any respect the Grand Elder had for them."Hahaha! Dignity? What is dignity?!" Colton licked his lips, eyes gleaming with malice. "Once I’ve had my fun with her, we’ll wipe out her entire clan. Who will be left to tell the tale?! Besides, I doubt I’m the only one here with such... appetites." His gaze swept over the crowd, and dozens of eyes gleamed with predatory hunger, all fixated on Serena."What are you waiting for?! Do it!" Onyx’s voice rang out, cold and commanding. In an instant, more than a dozen figures surrounded Serena.Despair and fury filled Serena’s eyes as she clutched her dagger. "I’d rather die than let you have you

With each step Xayne took, ripples spread beneath his feet, as though he were walking on water. The gray-white clouds above trembled, then began to swirl, forming a vortex. An invisible force pulled clouds from miles around, dragging them into a massive black hole that seemed to pierce both sky and earth. Lightning crackled along the vortex's edges, but the air remained eerily still, not a single breeze stirring.Sweat beaded on Onyx's forehead. His Heavenly Star Formation had been shattered—Xayne had broken through."The power of a Radiant Commander?!" Onyx muttered, instinctively backing away."Surprised?" Xayne's voice was cold. "You thought numbers gave you the right to act as you wish? Let me make this clear—aside from the Grand Elder and Temple Elder, everyone here... dies."It wasn't a threat or warning. To Xayne, the lives of those before him meant nothing. A Radiant Commander, even a newly ascended one, no longer viewed the world through mortal eyes. Life and death were irr

Xayne turned, his cold gaze locking onto Colton. Without a word, he lifted a single finger and struck.Colton's body shot backward like a ragdoll. He crashed onto the ground, his bones crushed under the sheer force of Xayne's attack. The pain was beyond comprehension—so intense that he could not even scream. His mouth hung open in agony, eyes bulging, blood vessels bursting in crimson streaks.Xayne ignored Onyx’s words and stepped toward the Grand Elder, gently placing a hand over the old man’s ruined eyes. "Let me see your eyes."A muffled groan escaped the Grand Elder as Xayne pressed his fingers against his eyelids. Moments later, thick, clotted blood seeped from the wounds. Only then did Xayne withdraw his hand."You should recover fine," Xayne said softly. "But for the next month, keep your eyes closed. After that, your vision will return naturally."The Grand Elder’s breath trembled with gratitude.Xayne gestured to a pair of servants. "Bring the medical kit." Once the supplies

Xayne nodded slightly. At this point, Onyx was so weak that even an ordinary person could take his life. There was no point in wasting energy on someone so powerless."The so-called International Kickboxing Academy is just a cover. The real goal is to continuously suppress Drakonia, strip the Emperor of his authority, and eventually have the Kickboxing Association overthrow him!" Onyx’s voice quivered with fear but grew urgent. "In the end, they plan to establish a nation ruled by kickboxing might, install a puppet Emperor, and… divide Drakonia into pieces. That is their ultimate objective."Onyx’s eyes widened with desperation as he continued. "But… but I’m not the only one involved! I’m just a minor player. The true masterminds are the circle leaders of White Blossom Mountain, Hern Mountain, and Heavenly Peak. They are the real architects behind this scheme! As the mere leader of the Valiant Union, I’m nothing but a pawn following orders. Please, King of the North, show mercy!"The e
