Felix frowned.

When the man first appeared, he had sensed a murderous intent aimed at him, but it quickly disappeared and shifted toward the old man. Yet now, he just heard that the man was here to kill him.

"You're here to kill me?" the old man asked, astonished.

Killian gave a bitter smile. He could move his legs and his facial muscles slowly. To be frank, Felix's strength had amazed him. With just half a coffee cup, Felix had rendered him immobile with almost no visible injuries on his body.

"That's right. But we underestimated you."

The old man, finally understanding the situation, took a step back in shock but said nothing.

"Interesting. You must be a professional assassin, right? Seems like your organization is on the brink of destruction," Felix said.

He was no stranger to assassin organizations. Back in Eden Village, assassins had managed to locate him. The nine female apprentices became furious.

On that same day, three of the apprentices left the village, and by the

    The old man let out a sigh of relief and nodded at Felix. Then, Killian collapsed to the floor."Someone will come to deal with the body."Since the old man was also an assassin, his background was not clean, either. Thus, Felix didn't mind killing someone in front of him. It wasn't a big deal."I keep my word. Wait here, and I'll get the Shimmeroot for you."As for the so-called Inferno Clan, Felix didn't take it seriously at all. As long as he was strong, everything else would just be a piece of cake for him. It was just noises and not real danger.By the time Felix left the villa, Kane, who had already been notified, brought people over to handle the body inside.…Meanwhile, in Villa No. 6 next door, Sasha was tearfully complaining to Nattie, who had just returned. "Mom! Felix is such a jerk! He actually slapped me in the face. You have to stand up for me!"Although Nattie was also angry, she managed to stay calm. "Sasha, just bear with it for now. Your father just signed th

    At the headquarters of the Phoenix Legion, Belle was flushed with excitement. "Milady! I'm sure Mr. Summers Senior is definitely going to be saved this time!"Xena was equally elated. After all, it was the Miracle Card at stake. Once they had it, the miracle doctor would surely appear, and Curtis' illness would be cured without question."Don't get too excited just yet. We still don't know exactly what the Kinsley family wants in exchange, and the publicity for this auction is everywhere. Even though it's only been one day, many big names are bound to come in."However, Belle was unconcerned. "I'd like to see who dares disrespect you."The smile on Xena's face faded as her voice turned cold. "Though I am a goddess of war, there are plenty of people in Dragonia who don't take me seriously. Don't try to flatter me. It won't help us secure the Miracle Card.""Oh, I'll investigate which influential figures are coming to the auction."Xena raised her hand to stop her. "No need to do t

    Wendy's phone was turned off? Felix was baffled. Someone like Wendy would never turn off her phone or let it out of her sight, even for a moment. This was odd."Alright. Leave it to me. I'll make sure tomorrow night's dinner goes as planned. You just go ahead and make a reservation.""Haha! I knew I could count on you!"This was what true friendship meant. No matter Felix's status or connections, in Jack's eyes, he was simply his good buddy and nothing more. If something came up, they wouldn't hesitate to ask each other for help, and vice versa.Felix called Wendy, but once again, her phone was off. He frowned.When it was nearing noon, Felix drove his Range Rover out. Since Wendy's phone was still turned off, he decided to visit the Kinsley family.It was partly because of Jack's problem. Another part was because he was worried something might have happened to Wendy. After all, they had developed a certain level of friendship since getting to know each other.When he arrived at

    When Felix parked his car, Wendy and Vincent were already waiting for him."What's going on here?"Felix got out of the car with a puzzled expression. Since nothing seemed wrong, why were all the guards stationed outside? And why did they have their phones turned off?Wendy looked embarrassed. Felix rarely contacted her, yet today of all days, he did, and it just happened to be the day they were auctioning off the Miracle Card. She felt awkward about bringing it up."Felix, there's… a bit of a misunderstanding here. Let's get inside, and I will explain?""Sure."A few minutes later, Felix had a strange expression on his face. "That's it?"Wendy nodded. "Yes. My father and grandfather were even worried that you might be upset."Felix chuckled and leaned back on the couch. "The Miracle Card has already been handed over to you. How you deal with it is up to you. Why would I be upset?"Hearing this, the members of the Kinsley family all breathed a sigh of relief. It truly would ha

    "Felix, I beg you. Please help me. Take me to the Kinsley residence. Please," Xena begged.However, Felix shook his head. "I've already said it before. Your grandfather's illness can only be treated this way. Now, we still lack three kinds of herbs. Even if you invite the miracle doctor, there will still only be this treatment."Upon hearing that, Xena was enraged. There was a look of disappointment in her eyes. "Even if you're a member of Dragon Alliance, do you think you can control everything? Do you know everything? Felix, you need to be humble. "Now, I understand why you acted the way you did before. It's Dragon Alliance that you're proud of, isn't it? In Dragonia, there are factions greater than Dragon Alliance. Besides, you're only a member."When Xena saw how unbothered Felix was, she said, "Let me ask you. Are you chief or deputy chief of Dragon Alliance?""No.""The vice leader?""Nope."Felix was telling the truth. It was true that he didn't hold any of those positi

    Felix looked to the side. He didn't know what car it was, but based on the current situation, it should be a luxury car. However, the person driving the vehicle was rude. People tended to act wildly nowadays, and that person's intention was obvious.Nevertheless, Yvonne didn't get angry. Instead, she squeezed out a smile. "Mr. Zimmerman, you're here too. I don't want to trouble you."Before stepping on the accelerator and speeding away, the man said, "It's rare for me to want to spend time with you. Sadly, you missed the chance."He was very arrogant and was extremely blunt. He didn't bother to hide his thoughts at all."Felix, he's George Zimmerman. He's a big shot from Yartford. You shouldn't offend him," Yvonne said.After getting into the car and advising Felix, Yvonne regretted her actions. They weren't in a romantic relationship, so why would he get angry because of what George said?"It seems that the auction this time has attracted the attention of many big shots."Yvonn

    "Milady, look there. Why does Chain know Felix?" Belle whispered to Xena.Xena turned to look at them before turning back."Chain is friendly. Previously, the arrest happened in Felix's villa. Didn't you say it yourself? Felix showed up in the end. So, why is it strange?"Xena's words made sense. Belle glared at Felix. She felt uneasy. Although Felix's status in Dragon Alliance hadn't been confirmed, she hoped he didn't have another hidden side.After all, when Felix acquired the Phoenix Legion, he and Belle became enemies. Thus, she hoped that he, as her opponent, would be weaker.As time passed, the auction had begun. Bernard was hosting on the stage, but he didn't dare talk much. Since many people present were more affluent than the Kinsley family, it was most polite to keep it short."Thank you, everyone, for coming here. There's no need for cash to bid on the Miracle Card. I just hope that you all can write down how you can help the Kinsley family. We'll pick who can provide

    Yvonne broke out of George's grasp and stepped back. Then, she shouted sternly, "Mr. Zimmerman, please calm down!"But George didn't care. Instead, he sat on the couch and gestured at her to come over. "I know you're a martial artist, so I won't force myself on you. Let me put it this way. "If you don't serve me well, what kind of outcome do you think you'll get based on my family's and my capability? Frankly, you're just a dog raised by someone else. Isn't it only a matter of seconds for her to abandon you when there are benefits to reap?"Yvonne's face turned pale. It was because whatever George said was the truth. Even her life belonged to Xena. When needed, Xena could use her at any time. For example, didn't Xena arrange for her to sleep with Felix previously?Right when Yvonne was feeling sad, the door opened, and Felix walked in."Yvonne, I've been looking for you. Come with me. I have something urgent to discuss with you."With a frown, George looked at him. "Get out!"F

    "I heard you've slept with Averill, Leslie, Delilah, and Mira?" Naomi said.Felix, who was in the middle of slurping the pasta, coughed out the contents in his mouth the moment he heard Naomi's words. He was at a loss for words. After all, it was true, and trying to deny it wouldn't change anything."What are you embarrassed about? We've always been your women. It was just a matter of time."Hearing those words come from Naomi's mouth gave Felix an indescribable sense of awkwardness.Her face, which had been slightly flushed, now seemed calm and resolute, as though she had come to terms with it."Do you know why Mr. Hoffman asked me to seek you out? It was to make sure we could sleep together."Felix started coughing again. "Naomi, are you serious?"Naomi nodded. "Yes. The cultivation technique I've been practicing is closely tied to the soul. Mr. Hoffman must have thought the time was right. He always has his reasons. "When we… uh… connect, it's not just about the physical

    After an hour's flight, Felix landed at Hermestown Airport, where someone was already waiting to pick him up."Mr. Zeller, does this car work for you?"The arrangements had been made by George. It was a piece of cake for someone like him.Looking at the sleek black Rolls-Royce Cullinan, Felix gave a nod of approval. "It'll do.""There's one million dollars in cash in the trunk. Take care, Mr. Zeller."Driving the Cullinan for another hour, Felix found himself mesmerized by the scenery along the way. Rolling mountains and lush greenery stretched as far as the eye could see. Clearly, the environment was a top priority for Naomi, judging by where she lived.Finally, the car arrived at the destination she had sent him: Juno Village.From a distance, Felix spotted a familiar figure. It was Naomi Lovelace.Although her head was wrapped in a scarf and she was dressed like a farmer, it did nothing to mask her beauty, especially when she smiled. She was as captivating as ever, and Felix

    Terry waved his hand decisively."This isn't something for you to worry about! When it comes to Lone Paragon, even those old recluses will send their prized disciples or family members. If Zack doesn't go, who else will stand a chance? Now leave."…As a new day dawned, Felix made his usual round at the clinic before heading over to Floral Wreath Boutique."Billy, are you signing up for the upcoming Dragonia Martial Arts Competition?"Unexpectedly, Billy shook his head, saying, "I'm not a martial artist, so why the hell would I join?"Hearing that, Felix's expression turned strange, wondering why he claimed not to be a martial artist. Then again, Billy had always been hard to figure out."Well, it's a relief that you're not joining," Felix said. He had confidence in taking on anyone, except for Billy. This guy was too mysterious, and his methods were downright bizarre."Felix, are you serious about what you mentioned last night?"Felix nodded. "Yeah, I already got Melissa's co

    At the Greene family estate, Aiden sat frowning. He held the same expression for quite some time. Meanwhile, Asher was in great turmoil and could not calm down.Aiden had sent a True Blood martial artist to kill Felix, yet the mission had failed. The assassin had gone missing, while Felix returned alive. He was completely unscathed, according to the reports."Aiden, should we strike again?" Asher asked cautiously.Aiden waved his hand dismissively."There's no time to waste on him for now. The Dragonia Martial Arts Competition is just around the corner, and the championship prize is the Lone Paragon ancient secret technique. That should be our priority."Standing up, Aiden smiled confidently."Only I am worthy of Lone Paragon. Anyone else who dares to covet it is nothing more than a fool."After a moment of hesitation, Asher asked carefully, "What if Felix decides to participate?"There were two possibilities regarding Felix. The first was that he had reached the True Blood R

    "You brat! Why do you always have to bring that? I'm hanging up." Gerald scoffed."Wait, Mr. Hoffman!" Felix shouted. There was something even more critical he hadn't yet addressed. "My soul… it has a problem."Gerald grew serious. "Don't scare me. Soul-related issues are no small matter.""Here's what happened. Headquarters initially sent me to Seapoint for a mission, and I encountered..." Felix recounted everything in full detail. This was Gerald, his mentor, after all. There was nothing he couldn't share."Vigilantes? And no one remembers them? Destiny Crystals? Honestly, I've never heard of these things," Gerald admitted. "But what you're describing is beyond bizarre! Especially the ability to erase all memory of their existence. There are only a handful of individuals in the entire Dragonia capable of that."Felix was stunned. "What? Can people actually do that? How many more unbelievable things are hidden in Dragonia?""Did you show it to Fatso?""Fatso? Who's that?" Fel

    A moment ago, Felix's mind was preoccupied with Helena, so he hadn't asked Xena any questions. But since Gerald called, he wouldn't let this opportunity slip by, especially not with someone as close to him as he was.Gerald began, "Lone Paragon! Do you realize how precious it must be for the country to safeguard it for so many years without letting anyone learn it? There's even a rumor that it's not from Earth. That might be an exaggeration, but it still speaks to its mystique."He continued, "To get to the point, what makes Lone Paragon so irresistible to martial artists is its power. Once mastered, it allows you to triple your combat strength for one whole hour with zero side effects. And you can use it again after 24 hours.""What?" Felix shot to his feet. It was almost too good to be true.A chance to triple one's combat strength! Anyone who obtained the ability would become invincible among their peers, and defeating stronger opponents would be effortless. The fact that it las

    Felix nodded—that was precisely what he was thinking."It's because headquarters got approval to offer the ultimate prize to the champion," Xena said mysteriously.She leaned forward and whispered, "It's Lone Paragon."Xena thought Felix would react wildly. But to her shock, he seemed unimpressed. "Have you never heard of Lone Paragon?""Should I have?" Felix asked flatly.Xena sighed. "Fine. I only learned about it myself after this tournament was finalized. Lone Paragon is an ancient secret technique passed down through the ages. It's been safeguarded by the country for centuries and has never leaked out."An ancient technique that was valued by the country? It had to be extraordinary, then."If it's truly that remarkable, wouldn't the champion become a target for everyone? I doubt this tournament allows contestants to use fake identities or disguise themselves, right?" Felix asked.It was an important question. If he became the focus of countless ambitious warriors, his life

    Felix was taken aback by the question. "Decide what?"Nala was nervous and didn't know how Felix would respond. While terrified of hearing the answer, she couldn't help but hope for clarity.Xena also felt conflicted. For the first time, she felt uncertain and doubted her charm, which was rare for her. It was a moment of vulnerability, a decision every woman dreads."You can choose to stay here at the clinic or come with me. I have something important to discuss with you," Xena said, surprising herself with how much her tone had shifted.She intended to confront Felix, but her tone softened, catching her off guard. Why was she suddenly uncertain about her feelings for a man who had fought hard to win her back?"I'll come with you," Felix replied without hesitation.If Xena was asking, it was likely related to a mission, so Felix didn't dwell on what Nala might think. He followed Xena without a second thought.Once they had left, Melissa asked, "Nala, why are you smiling?"Nala

    Felix chuckled. "You're a grown man, yet you're still hung up on things like this! Not just anyone can be my follower. Sure, some might see you as cowardly or disloyal, but I've always believed people can change. So stop worrying about how others see you, and even more so about how I do."Felix tossed a pill over. "This is a new formula I developed. It's designed to boost the strength of those who mastered Blood Realm. Give it a try.""What?" Selmer quickly caught the pill. It turned out Felix hadn't forgotten about him after all. "Thank you, Mr. Zeller! Thank you!"In truth, Felix had created this pill a while ago. However, he wasn't sure of its effects or whether it might even be harmful. So he hadn't dared to let Selmer use it. However, after the success of the Windseeker Pill during his mission in Guneria, Felix was confident that the medical text's descriptions were accurate.Even the most basic pills from the text could enhance the strength of warriors who were already consid
