"Averill, I can assure you, your cycle is perfectly normal."In the courtyard of Tranquil Clinic in Eden Village, Felix Zeller slowly lifted his right hand with a look of helplessness.Before him stood six beautiful women, each with a unique charm. They were smiling as they patiently waited in line."But Felix, I don't feel well. Why don't you come to my room and do a thorough checkup?" Averill Davis said suggestively.Felix smiled wryly.Ever since his mentor, Gerald Hoffman, brought him to this village three years ago, he had faced constant teasing from these women, his fellow apprentices.Although he had gotten used to it, it was still tough to handle, especially when they were so alluring."Averill, don't push your luck.""Exactly! It's my turn now. Step aside. Don't even dream about having Felix all by yourself."As Leslie Brown sat in front of him, Felix sighed and pleaded, "Please, can't you all be more like Eloise, Dahlia, and Karina? Focus on your training and stop wa

By the time Felix stepped out of his room, everyone was already gone. With his departure, his fellow apprentices likely wouldn't stay in Eden Village either.Thinking about it made Felix fume. Three years ago, Gerald had brought him here and then disappeared without a trace. It was utterly irresponsible of him.The sounds of knocking pulled Felix from his thoughts.He looked up to see several unfamiliar faces standing at the courtyard gate. Even though the gate was open, they hadn't entered, showing some degree of politeness.Felix walked over and noticed a few Mercedes G-Wagons parked outside the clinic. Evidently, these were wealthy individuals."Excuse me. Is the miracle doctor here?" asked a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses, looking very refined. His name was Vincent Kinsley."The miracle doctor left this place almost three years ago."Vincent's face fell. The miracle doctor was a legend in Dragonia's medical world. He was their last hope, and now, he was gone.Besi

While Xena loved Curtis dearly and had tried every means to cure him, a troubling thought crept into her mind: she hoped he wouldn't wake up at this moment.That was because Felix was insufferable. Not only was he useless, but he also dared to act superior in front of a goddess of war like her. He clearly had no idea who he was dealing with.Felix didn't respond to her condescending remarks. Instead, he rushed over to check Curtis' pulse, his expression growing serious. "It's the Phantom Poison. No wonder."Xena frowned. "Are you saying Grandpa's been poisoned?""That's right. It's the most potent Phantom Poison there is. If it had been detected earlier, I could have neutralized it immediately. But it's been over a year, and it has become more complicated."We need some rare herbs to treat it. Thankfully, the master healers you contacted did a decent job. Though they couldn't remove the poison, they managed to keep him alive."Xena's expression twisted with a mix of emotions. "Lo

"Please, Dr. Fielding! Save my father. I'll give anything!" Vincent pleaded desperately.Bernard's life was crucial for the family, and as his son, Vincent was willing to do whatever it took.Xander sighed. "Your father will not make it through the night. But since I'm here, you have another option. I can extend his life by a month. Decide quickly."Before Vincent could respond, Bernard croaked out with great struggle, "D-Do it."Vincent quickly agreed. Prolonging Bernard's life for a month was better than losing him now.Meanwhile, Wendy had slipped out of the room, looking visibly torn as she held her phone. She remembered the phone number Felix had given them earlier that day due to her sharp memory."Grandpa, I'll do anything for you," she murmured, her face set with determination.…At a certain residential area in Avesburgh, Felix stood in front of a three-story villa, feeling a mix of emotions. It had been three years since he last saw Warren Quinton.Warren had been hi
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 5
The Quintons turned to Felix, each with different emotions. Warren felt an inexplicable excitement, whereas Nattie's and Sasha's faces were full of contempt."Felix, you've really learned a thing or two in the past three years," Nattie remarked, her tone dripping with sarcasm despite the seemingly complimentary words."A Rolls-Royce? Felix, you're amazing. I bet a helicopter will come pick you up the next time," Sasha chimed in with blatant mockery."Uncle Warren, I'll visit you again," Felix said, ignoring their words. He had more pressing matters, as the person with the Miracle Card required immediate aid.As Warren saw Felix out, Nattie and Sasha reluctantly followed. Their expressions shifted slightly upon seeing the Rolls-Royce Phantom parked at the gate, but they remained unimpressed."Are you Mr. Felix Zeller?" asked a man in a tailored suit and white gloves. He was Marco Jensen, the Kinsley family's chauffeur.Upon Felix's confirmation, Marco opened the car door for him a

Although Wendy and Vincent might not have understood the full extent of what was happening, the sight of the arrogant Xander sprawled on the floor in shock made them realize Felix was the real deal."Remove the needles in an hour. Your grandfather will wake up tomorrow fully recovered," Felix stated before turning to leave.He was here solely to fulfill Gerald's duty concerning the Miracle Card."Pierce of Trinity… My God, I can't believe I witnessed the Pierce of Trinity."Snapping back to reality, Vincent quickly nudged Wendy. "Go after him!"Then, he helped Xander to his feet and asked, "What's the Pierce of Trinity?""It's one of the most miraculous acupuncture techniques in traditional medicine," Xander explained instinctively. "The Pierce of Trinity can cure most ailments. Though it has been passed down, very few can perform it. I've practiced for five years and still haven't mastered it."Reflecting on Bernard's condition and the placement of the three needles, Xander h

Felix turned and saw Sasha.Just his luck.He didn't want to argue with her, but he decided to say, "Sasha, you don't have to worry about what your father said. There's no future between us. I'll break the news to him in a month."Sasha chuckled. "At least you're self-aware. That saves me the trouble. You'd better stick to your words, or you'll regret it when I do it my way."Ruth chimed in, "You might not know how popular Sasha is now. She has more admirers than she can count, and many of them are from wealthy families. You're no match."Then, she glanced at the tail lights of the disappearing Rolls-Royce Phantom. "Renting a fancy car might change your appearance, but it won't change who you are inside."Felix nodded, relieved Sasha wasn't pursuing him. He never liked her, not three years ago, and certainly not now. Her family's company's success had only made her more arrogant and superficial.As Felix headed into Luxe Dining, Sasha scowled, and her disdain became evident. "Ar

"Alas, it was partly my fault. He simply looked too young. Before treating Mr. Kinsley Senior, we had a bit of a disagreement, so I didn't manage to get his contact."Xena understood where Xander was coming from and couldn't blame him.No one would believe it when a young man claimed his medical skills were superior to Xander's, one of the top ten healers in the country."Thank you, Dr. Fielding. I'll follow up with the Kinsley family."Some hope was better than none. Compared to the elusive miracle doctor, Xena thought that the mysterious young man was undoubtedly worth pursuing.…Felix felt thoroughly satisfied as he left Luxe Dining. The food was delicious, justifying its high price.Just then, Warren called. Before leaving the Quinston villa, Felix had reluctantly given him his new contact information."Uncle Warren, what's up?""Felix, come stay at my place tonight."Felix tried to decline. "No, I—""Don't even try to fool me. I've known you since you were a kid. I can

"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

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

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

"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
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1079
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

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

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
