Chapter 1074

Author: Dreamy Fire
In truth, Zayn was lying. The wooden craving indeed blocked sound, but if someone held its paired counterpart, they could eavesdrop on the conversation. And that counterpart was in the hands of Josiah, the elderly man accompanying him.

"The fact that His Majesty values my talents is a great honor," Felix said with a polite smile. "However, I've always lived freely, and it was Harmony Clinic that nurtured me. I'm afraid I cannot accept the offer."

Zayn was inwardly pleased—this wasn't even something he had to lead Felix into saying.

"You don't have to worry about Harmony Clinic," Zayn continued smoothly. "We can persuade Mr. Whitwell. As long as you're willing, it's not an obstacle.

"Felix, let me be honest with you—no matter how much you've seen or heard about the power of the royal family, it's just the tip of the iceberg. If you join us, you'll receive the highest level of treatment—even above us princes.

"And surely, you've heard of the Empress? The strongest force in Martial C

    A day passed, and as Felix stepped out of the courtyard, he was immediately taken aback.The base of Trirock Mountain now had a sea of people, stretching as far as the eye could see. Even more late-stage Transcendent Realm experts had arrived."Nala, here are seven Ascension Pills. Keep them safe," he said.Nala accepted the box and, without hesitation, opened it in front of everyone. The seven pills inside gleamed in the light—genuine, without a doubt.For a moment, the gathered crowd was ablaze with excitement. This was unexpected—there should have only been six pills. This confirmed beyond a doubt that Felix's pill success rate was incredibly high.Dickson had already arranged everything with Laura, ensuring that the distribution process was orderly. There was no chance of chaos or disputes breaking out.Among the crowd, Barry was given a shove. "Go on, Barry! Just one Ascension Pill, and our Lufter family will rise again!"Barry's expression was dark with frustration. His fa

    Having the highest fighting prowess would make a lady in the royal family an Empress and the man an Emperor. Neither of them was allowed to get married and have children. After all, their descendants would never have that kind of talent in cultivation anymore. Now, however, Cordelia had a child. "I've said what needs to be said. Farewell." Aiden turned around and was about to leave. The Emperor suddenly snarled icily, "Stand right there! Do you think I will let you live after you reveal such a secret?"To everyone's surprise, Aiden was unfazed. "Firstly, I wouldn't have shown up here if I didn't have the confidence to walk out of here safely. Secondly, I told you about the secret because I have bad blood with Felix. "Lastly, let's assume that I do spread this information out there. You have to ask yourself this—who would dare to listen to me, and who will actually believe me?"Can I leave now?"The Emperor waved with a cold expression. The three points Aiden raised were flaw

    Celestial Hall? This was the first time Felix heard about it. "What's the deal with Celestial Hall? No one has talked about them at all," he said.A mix of emotions flashed in Cordelia's eyes. "Only the royals are privy to its existence. Moreover, only direct descendants of the royal bloodline know about it, such as the Emperor and Princes. The other royal members are oblivious to it."Cordelia chuckled bitterly. "You are my son, and I am the most powerful fighter alive. By all means, you would've been able to have your way in the world. However, Celestial Hall is the source of my bondage."The royals would have a descendant with the highest fighting prowess every few generations. The ladies would become Empresses, and the men would become Emperors. "Neither of them could stay after their descendant was born. They would be forced into retirement, and Celestial Hall would become their new home."What? Felix was absolutely dumbfounded. "Are you saying that Celestial Hall housed

    With the Destiny Crystal in his hands, Felix should've been the fastest person to master Ethereal Constitution. However, not even he knew exactly how long it would take. Naturally, that meant he couldn't keep staying in Corpse Town. After all, Deborah was waiting for him out there. He couldn't just think of himself. After he paid with the pills he had just created, Felix intended to tell everyone about his plan. At the next moment, however, Cordelia suddenly appeared behind him. A loud thud could be heard. She actually reached out and struck someone in the palm. She had suddenly shown up to protect Felix."This is bad. This man exuded the aura of someone who had mastered Transcendent Realm, but he suddenly became as strong as I am for some reason."Felix turned around, and his expression immediately changed. "Grand Elder!"That was right. His assailant was the Grand Elder, who had gone off the radar for a long time. However, something troubled Felix. The Grand Elder might've

    Four martial artists with mastery over Transcendent Realm rushed out of the crowd and charged right at Felix. At the same time, a voice boomed, and everyone heard what it said. "Felix tried and failed to kill a member of the royals. His Majesty has decreed that he is found guilty and sentenced him to death. Anyone who dares to help Felix will be held accountable for."One of the royals?At the next moment, Felix initiated Lone Paragon and stood before the four assailants. The others backed off hastily. They were afraid that they would become hapless victims of a battle of this scale. "Mr. Whitwell!" Deborah felt her heart clench up. She looked at Ezra anxiously, but he merely sighed and shook his head. "No one would dare to help Felix now, Madam Goddard."As expected, Andre and Shepherd remained where they stood. The other martial artists who mastered the Transcendent Realm and promised to protect Felix also didn't dare to move at all. "You've all let me down!" Deborah was e

    "Gosh!"Everyone was absolutely shocked. They knew Felix was a great alchemist, but none of them took him for a fearsome martial artist. In less than a minute, he managed to heavily injure four assailants who mastered Transcendent Realms. Felix didn't dare to waste more time. He was about to leave Corpse Town, but a figure stood in his way. "It's a good thing I made it in time." The person's shoes faded away into ashes as he spoke. Then, he stood on the ground with his bare feet. "I decided to wear out one of my pseudo-magical artifacts to stop you, Felix. Looks like I made the right call. I almost let you slip through my fingers again." Felix frowned slightly and retorted coldly, "What makes you think you have what it takes to stop me, Aiden?"He hadn't expected to see Aiden right now. More shockingly, the latter exuded the overwhelming aura of someone who had mastered Transcendent Realm. How could that have been possible, though? Felix was able to make the breakthrough

    Just as Aiden was about to be struck down by the Empress with a single punch, a voice suddenly boomed in everyone's ears."Enough!"Reluctantly, the Empress withdrew her hand and swiftly moved Felix ten yards away.The next moment, a burst of flames erupted from where she had just stood. It was so intense that it seemed to melt the very ground beneath it, a testament to the extreme heat.Had Cordelia continued her attack on Aiden, she too would have been injured, a risk not worth taking as the real battle was yet to come.Aiden, who had narrowly escaped death, was drenched in sweat. For the second time, after the close brush with death during the Dragonia Martial Arts Competition involving Felix, he felt death brush past him once again.As he regained his composure, three figures appeared before him. It was two men and a woman, all with gray hair yet standing tall and straight. Even their silhouettes exuded an overwhelming sense of grandeur."You've finally come," murmured Corde

    Seeing Felix step forward on his own, a deep sense of pride swelled in Cordelia's heart as a mother."You forced me into this. I wanted to keep things peaceful, but you drove me to embrace the demon within."Felix's words made it clear. He was ready to use his dagger, Lumen. At death's door, why should he still care about the impact on his soul? That would be laughable."You little brat! How dare you pull a bluff before us?""You have no idea how vast the world is! So what if you embrace the demon within you? If power could be changed with mere words, wouldn't Martial City have fallen into chaos long ago?""If you can withstand three of my attacks, I'd already consider you quite capable."Aiden smirked. He knew it was over—his long-standing grudge against Felix would finally be settled.At the same time, the Grand Elder clenched his teeth, barely able to contain his anticipation. The moment Felix was slaughtered, he'd have his head severed and tossed into the capital just to let

    "Felix! If you have the guts, let's settle this another day. One final battle!" Aiden cried.Upon seeing Felix close in, Aiden panicked. He wasn't a match for Felix to begin with. Now, with Zara watching like a predator, he knew that if he got caught, death was inevitable.Felix replied, "Funny. You came here to kill me, and now you're asking for a rain check? You think I have all the time in the world for this?"He knew this feud had to end today."You spared the royals because they share the same bloodline as your mother. I, Aiden, am your father's nephew. Why can't you spare me too?" Aiden asked.Felix only responded with a cold laugh. Did he look like someone who spared enemies out of kindness? The only reason he let those three old bastards go was because he had no choice.When Zara had walked up to him slowly, she had been transmitting messages to him via telepathy the whole time.According to her, she only had enough strength left for one attack. And even then, she couldn

    "Zara," Felix called out.Upon hearing Felix call her name, Zara turned to him with a sweet smile."What is it, honey?"Felix gestured toward Cordelia. "This is my mother."Any other daughter-in-law would have been nervous, perhaps even overwhelmed with anxiety at this moment. But Zara? She simply looked at Felix with the same cheerful expression and responded with a single word, "Oh."Her reaction confirmed what Gerald had once told Felix. Once Zara had fully suppressed the Twinshade Body, she would only recognize Felix. Nothing and no one else would matter to her.Seeing that Zara had stopped her attack, the three Celestial Royals let out a breath of relief, knowing they had just barely escaped death's grasp. While they were still shaken up, the Grand Elder and Aiden were petrified. Zara's sudden arrival had completely upended their expectations. It was an unforeseen twist that caught them completely off guard."Mom, what's wrong?"With a complicated expression, Cordelia gl

    No one knew when the woman had arrived, but there she was. She appeared gracefully, her steps light as air. Dressed simply in a flowing white gown, she outshone everything around her.Everyone—young and old, men and women alike—was captivated. Their gazes locked onto her, unable to look away. She was breathtaking, beyond the reach of words. No description, no matter how poetic, could do her beauty justice."Zara?"Felix was stunned with joy. He hadn't expected Zara to appear at this moment. However, it wasn't just her presence. It was the look in her eyes, the expression on her face. It was her. The Zara he knew, not the dark force of the Twinshade Body.Which could only mean one thing—she had conquered it.His voice snapped the others out of their daze. Many men suddenly realized they had been standing there, slack-jawed, with drool dripping from their chins.For the first time, Nerissa felt truly outshined in terms of beauty. Yet, instead of jealousy, she felt a deep sense of j
