Ten minutes later, inside the council hall, the atmosphere among the Great Imperial Sect members was tense, and no one said a word."Mr. Cunningham! Are we really going to detain Xena like this? Is that fine?"The deputy sect leader, who was arrogant and dismissive of Xena, now appeared worried.After all, while his seniority might allow him to treat her this way, Xena's identity as the goddess of war was a whole different matter."Exactly, Mr. Cunningham. Xena is the goddess of war, and if Hector gets involved, we're in serious trouble."In Dragonia, were there sects that dared to defy the Warlord of the East openly? Yes. But the Great Imperial Sect was definitely not one of them. The authority of the Warlord of the East wasn't just an empty title.However, Jaxon didn't seem concerned."There's no need to worry! We'll just say that Xena was deep into her cultivation and returned to the Great Imperial Sect to go into seclusion. Even the Warlord of the East won't interfere."The

"Simple! You've humiliated me, and you even hit Sasha. She's made it clear that I should inform you of this. Tomorrow night, go to this place and apologize to her and me. Otherwise, don't blame her for not giving any face, not even for her father," Ruth declared.Felix smiled."Alright, I'll definitely be there. You can also tell Sasha that from now until the meeting time tomorrow, she still has a chance to change her mind. Otherwise, I'll make sure she spends the rest of her life in a wheelchair."Did Sasha really think that just because Warren had her back, she could act as she pleased? She had already been involved in a lot of messy situations."Interesting. I'll be sure to pass on your message."Meanwhile, in a high-end café, Jack arrived at the entrance. Judging by the interior, he could tell that the person who had arranged to meet him wasn't ordinary. The person had only mentioned they were Felix's friend and nothing else.When he entered the room, Jack was stunned. The wo

How big was Stellar Group? It was a top-rank company in the entire Dragonia. Forget about being a vice president, just passing the layers of screening to work there was something most people could only dream of—the kind of dream that would make you laugh in your sleep. The benefits and perks offered there were unimaginable for an ordinary office worker.Plus, to add one percent of shares in the company, there were simply no words to describe how valuable that was. Most people would grab the pen and sign the contract immediately after seeing it. To put it bluntly, even if Yvonne mistreated them later, they would do it without hesitation.What was more important, poverty or dignity? Only those who had truly experienced it knew the answer.However, Jack didn't hesitate even for a second. His expression darkened, and he stood up."Ms. Cooper, I don't care what your status is. If you dare to harm my buddy, I'll give up my life to drag you down with me!"As he was about to leave, Yvon

The girl's ponytail swayed as she turned around, seemingly having heard the sound. She was indeed very beautiful, with a mix of innocence and allure that was hard to define.The girl bent over in a bow, her eyes sparkling with excitement."I'm Vivian Murphy, the deputy chief of Dragon Alliance's Earthen Hall. I've met the Dragon Lord before."If they weren't outside, Vivian would probably have already kneeled down."So, you're Vivian? It seems you've come a bit early."Felix opened the gate, and Vivian followed closely behind."I have the opportunity to serve the Dragon Lord. How could I let anything else distract me?"Vivian's heart was still far from calm. When Kane had informed her that she would be serving the Dragon Lord directly, the emotion she felt was indescribable.Once inside the living room, Felix gestured for Vivian to sit."To become a deputy chief of one of the Dragon Alliance's subsects at such a young age is an impressive achievement.""Thank you for your pra
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 211
At that moment, Vivian was utterly at a loss. Felix had hurriedly rushed out of the bathroom while in the middle of his shower.Looking at his solid chest, abs, and droplets of water glistening on his body, she felt her breath quicken. She had seen things she definitely shouldn't have seen."Call and gather all the members of Earthen Hall immediately. We're heading to the Great Imperial Sect!" Felix ordered."Got it!" Vivian responded.In the nearby villa, Yvonne received a phone call."Ms. Cooper, just as I was about to act, someone else made the first move. Since I didn't have orders and it all happened suddenly, I can't follow from behind."Oh? Was someone else trying to kidnap Jack?Yvonne frowned. Her missus' plan had been to kidnap Jack and then notify Felix. Since Felix was a martial artist, they wanted to test his capabilities, especially in a state of extreme anger, when a person could perform at their peak. The two contracts were meant as compensation for Jack's kidnap

But once Felix entered the Great Imperial Sect's territory, it would all be beyond everyone's control. Xena knew very well that the Great Imperial Sect still had a Supreme Elder whose strength was unfathomable. No matter how powerful that mysterious woman might be, there was no way she could stir up the slightest trouble here."Mr. Cunningham, how could you…"Xena smiled bitterly. There were things she couldn't say out loud. She was well aware of the kind of person Olly's apprentice was. He was someone who only cared about personal gain. He became arrogant and reckless, thinking he had the sect's support.There was no need to investigate what had happened. Felix must have been the first to discover the snakefruit, and Olly's apprentice had tried to kill him and steal it, only to be killed himself in turn.On this side of the world, people would say he deserved it. However, according to Dragonia's laws, Felix had still committed murder, and there was no doubt he would be charged w
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 213
Jaxon frowned, wondering why the mysterious woman hadn't appeared there."Mr. Cunningham! Why does that matter? Let's just get Felix first!"Upon hearing the deputy chief's suggestion, Jaxon nodded and uttered three words."Take him down!"In the next instant, the deputy chief shot forward like an arrow. The stone slabs beneath him cracked with every step, revealing the immense power he possessed.However, Felix stood there with his hands behind his back, seemingly uninterested in making a move."Hmph! And trash like you dares to attack the Dragon Lord?"Vivian disappeared from where she stood, and a muffled bang followed. The deputy chief was sent flying back even faster than he had rushed forward. If not for Jaxon holding him, the deputy chief would have crashed headfirst into the wall."There's not much time left. You'd better make good use of what remains of your five minutes," Vivian said coldly before returning to Felix's side.The development of the situation left the Gr
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 214
Almost as soon as Felix finished speaking, someone rushed to Jaxon's side and informed,"Mr. Cunningham! Jack has been taken by someone else."At that moment, Jaxon finally realized that they were the fools. Felix might have looked like he was doing nothing, but in reality, everything had been meticulously planned. The five minutes he gave them were nothing more than time for them to repent.Thinking of this, Jaxon started trembling with anger and roared furiously, "Well played, Felix! The younger generation truly surpasses the older ones. But do you really think you can wipe out the Great Imperial Sect just like that?"Felix had no intention of responding. He had given them enough time, and it was time to release the strength he had been holding back.Just as he was about to raise his hand and signal the Earthen Hall members to begin the slaughter, Xena appeared. She stepped directly in front of Jaxon and the others."Mr. Cunningham! Please stop it here!" she shouted.Jaxon was s

The bodies and limbs of the mall staff were trembling violently on the floor. When the two of them looked over again, the staff had all regrouped, rushing over once again.Were they indestructible like cockroaches? Felix and Esme began punching and kicking helplessly. Fortunately, they were both on solid ground. Otherwise, they would've tripped and fallen to their deaths.It took a bit of effort to finally disperse them all again. Having learned their lessons, they didn't dare to hesitate anymore and rushed up the stairs madly. Sure enough, the mall staff collected themselves and started moving much faster!It was coincidentally similar to the characteristics of Malevolent Phantoms. Was it just a coincidence or intentional? Felix pondered in his mind as they rushed through the emergency exit to the second floor with Esme. Finally, they reached the second floor of Orchard Square. The door behind them slammed shut—and there was pure silence. It was as if they were completely isolate
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1368
After closing the emergency door, the two finally stopped. "Are we safe?" Esme panted.After a moment of thought, Felix replied, "I think so. Then, I'll head back to grab our clothes."Esme immediately grabbed his arm. "Hey! You said you would listen to me. If you go back, can you guarantee to come back? I'm a woman, and even I don't care yet you're the one who can't let it go?"Anyone who saw them would've thought they were having an intense argument. But in fact, they were simply left with no choice."Besides, the second floor sells clothes. Why should we risk going back?"Felix rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. "You're right. Okay, let's go." All of a sudden, the emergency door slammed open with a bang. A dozen of the mall staff rushed in. "Intruders! Intruders!"Without hesitation, the two of them ran upstairs. Esme stopped again after a few steps, confusion spread across her face."Do… Do they think they can catch us at that speed? I wonder what the guy controllin
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1367
Felix knew these were all illusions, but he still reacted because it looked too real. After speaking, the middle-aged man went downstairs. Esme glanced at Felix and motioned to follow him. She didn't want to alert the enemy and wanted to see what was happening first. They followed the middle-aged man down to the basement and pushed open the emergency door. They entered the basement of Orchard Square. It was a standard mall layout, after all. Felix saw two queues not too far away, but he didn't know what they were lining up for."Get in line. It'll be your turn soon." With that, the middle-aged man left. He clearly wasn't worried about Felix and Esme running away. The two of them looked at each other and Esme gave him a slight nod, intending to stay put. Felix immediately understood that there were too many people around.If a slight expression crossed his face, everyone would stare at him and he would be regarded as a foreign entity, let alone if he ran. Besides, if he moved, w

Just as Felix felt lost, a woman smiling at him from a jewelry shop nearby caught his eye. Her smile was faint, but in such an odd mall, it stood out even more. Otherwise, why would it catch Felix's eye?Her smile was fleeting, disappearing in mere seconds. If it lasted any longer, the people in the mall would probably turn to glare at him again. After seeing the woman turn around and walk away almost robotically, Felix quickly followed her at the same mechanical pace.She led him to an emergency stairwell and as Felix pushed through the door, she stood there waiting for him. "You've got the guts! Most people would've freaked out when they walked into this mall, but you seem quite calm," she said.Felix didn't know what the Black Soul Scout wanted with such an illusion, however, he didn't dare to act rashly. He was afraid of scaring them away. Besides, he could guess that the scout wasn't in the mall, otherwise, Donna would've sensed it."Who are you? What happened to Orchard Squ
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1365
According to Donna, there were three soul barriers in Orchard Square.The first one was a detection barrier, likely set up by the Black Soul Scout to avoid unnecessary trouble. It ensured that only ordinary people or martial artists could enter. Anyone who had cultivated their soul would disrupt the rules of this private paradise.The second barrier was an illusion-based one, directly affecting a person's soul to blur the line between reality and illusion.The third barrier was the most intriguing. It gathered some kind of energy from souls. Donna wasn't sure what exactly it was. The only way to find out was to step into the mall and investigate.Based on Felix's assessment, the third soul barrier was likely the true objective of Black Soul Scout. To uncover the truth and find the scout, he had no choice but to put himself at risk. There was no alternative.He was well aware that Hall of Souls knew everything about him. Even the lowest-ranked Blue Soul Envoys recognized his name.

"The soul barrier is in place. Let's get this over with. If you two see me, it'll just make things even more awkward, so it's better to start right away," Billy muttered.Inside the villa, an invisible force swept over them. Felix felt something new within his soul. It was something subtle yet impossible to pinpoint. It stirred a strange restlessness deep inside him.Just as he was about to focus on figuring out what was happening, his body reacted. Before he could process it, Xena had already thrown herself into his arms."What's going on? I suddenly feel like I need to be close to you."She clung tightly to him, yet neither of them moved beyond that embrace. Under normal circumstances, things between a man and a woman wouldn't stop here. They would probably undo their clothes."Damn it! That bastard tricked me," Felix muttered.The moment Xena got close, Felix's restless energy reached its peak, making it clear that this was definitely Billy's doing.Time passed. He had no ide
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1363
The moment the topic came up, Felix's gaze flickered, avoiding direct eye contact. No matter how you put it, even though Xena would also benefit from it, it still felt somewhat unfair. It felt that way, especially since they weren't in a relationship. If they were married or at least dating, it wouldn't be an issue at all."I'm exhausted. I need another two days to rest," he said.Billy scoffed. "I know your soul energy is depleted, but trust me. Your fatigue will disappear instantly once your souls merge. The feeling is beyond words. I'm sure you've heard from the Malevolent Phantom how irresistible Soul Binding is, even for those who've already experienced love and passion."Wait, what? Felix was speechless. It seemed that there was really no way out of it."Oh, one last thing. After you and Xena… you know, your soul energy will be completely absorbed and stored away. That means you won't have any left to wield a soul-bound weapon or use any soul attacks. Are you sure you still
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1362
There was only one explanation—Felix really could heal soul damage."Of course, I healed him. Let me rest for a bit. Wake me up when the sun comes up."Felix was utterly exhausted. Even if an S-tier Malevolent Phantom appeared beside him, he couldn't be bothered to care. If Donna had truly wanted to kill him, she would have done it long ago. There was no reason for her to wait until now.As Donna watched Felix slip into a deep sleep almost instantly, her expression grew more complex.What kind of ridiculous joke was that? Even though Leonardo was a crossbreed, his soul had already inherited the traits of a Malevolent Phantom. While it wasn't exactly the same as a true Malevolent Phantom, the essence of his soul had changed.And yet, Felix had still managed to heal him. If word of this got out, it would shake the entire Malevolent Phantom world to its core.It was like finding out that some miracle doctor could cure any disease in the human world. People would go absolutely crazy.
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1361
Leonardo's body suddenly started convulsing, and with foam spilling from his mouth, even a fool could tell something had gone wrong.Damage to the soul was entirely different from physical injuries. If one got a cut, even without treatment, their body would eventually heal on its own. However, the soul wasn't like that. Any damage was permanent and had widespread consequences. Even if just a fraction of an inch of the soul was harmed, the physical reaction could be extreme.Felix let out a long breath. "Finally got it out. It sounds easy, but doing it was incredibly difficult. Even with my soul energy, I nearly couldn't hold on."The level of precision required to make such an impossibly fine cut was beyond imagination. To do it without causing any collateral damage would require soul energy beyond comprehension.Of course, Leonardo's soul had been damaged. There was no avoiding it."At least he's alive. You've done all you could," Donna said.However, Felix just smiled. "That'
