Averill blinked her eyes a few times and asked, "That's it? Are you sure you're not just frustrated and need me to comfort you?"Felix gave a bitter smile."That's really it. I'm hoping you can help, Averill.""Alright. I get it. What a bore! If I had known it would be this dull, I wouldn't have gone through the trouble of diverting Leslie."…Meanwhile, the atmosphere at the Great Imperial Sect was grim. After all, their Supreme Elder, who was considered the guardian of the sect, had perished. Who could possibly feel good in such a situation?"Mr. Cunningham! Are we just going to let this slide?"Days had passed since the incident. Though the elders gathered in the council hall daily, no one had much to say. The deputy sect leader glared angrily, sharing the same frustration as the rest, who were visibly unable to let go of their indignation.Jaxon glanced around and said coldly, "And what should we do? Even our Supreme Elder was struck dead by a lightning bolt. Do you reall

"Let him in immediately!"After recalling the incident, Jaxon hurriedly gave the order. What shocked everyone was that the moment the words left his mouth, a young man suddenly appeared in the hall.No one present had noticed how he entered.Jaden was a handsome young man with a unique air, which set him apart. He was the type that would stand out instantly in a crowd."Mr. Cunningham, I am Jaden Hault, the Ninth Elder of Crimson Sage Sect. Nice to meet you," Jaden greeted with a calm smile.Although this was a rather casual gesture considering their ranks, Jaxon didn't take it as arrogance. Instead, he eagerly stepped down from his seat, no longer daring to remain at the head of the hall."Mr. Hault, it is an honor for the Great Imperial Sect to receive someone of your stature," Jaxon said warmly.After the two sat down, Jaden finally spoke, "I've come today for your student, Xena. I believe you've already recalled what my mentor told you eight years ago?"Jaxon nodded. "I tho

Finally, Dora made up her mind. "Let's do this! I, Dora, have never gambled once in my life. But this time, I'll go crazy with you!"Just as she finished speaking, three cars suddenly appeared, blocking the road both in front and behind. Dora was forced to slam on the brakes."Are they out of their minds? Who dares block my car?"But the next moment, she saw the license plates and immediately knew she was in trouble."Damn! It's my dad's car."Sure enough, the door of the Rolls-Royce opened, and a middle-aged man stepped out. Right beside him was her brother, Sam."Damn it! It was Sam. He must have ratted me out."Dora turned to Felix with a pitiful expression. "Felix, can you come down with me? Otherwise, my dad will definitely kill me this time. Please help me explain."Felix sighed. He did owe Dora a favor for helping him earlier, so doing her this small favor was no big deal."Alright."After they stepped out of the car, the middle-aged man's expression softened slightly

Bradley's sudden reaction left Zachary stunned for a moment, but he quickly chuckled."Felix? He was just a friend of mine."Before he could finish, Bradley's sharp gaze locked onto him, and his tone became sterner. "Tell me the truth. Is he really just a friend, or are you trying to dig up information about Felix?"How could Bradley not know his nephew's character? Zachary was notorious for stirring up trouble. As the commander of the Phoenix Legion, Bradley had dealt with all sorts of cunning individuals. He could easily tell when someone was lying.The room fell silent as everyone turned to watch, especially Benedict. He stood up and sternly said, "Tell your uncle the truth!"A man of his experience could easily sense the seriousness in Bradley's demeanor.Although Zachary was puzzled, he hurriedly told the truth, "Uncle Bradley, it's true. I wanted to find out more about Felix. We had some disagreements, but it's not a big deal. I saw with my own eyes that the Phoenix Legion t

"Felix, I'm Bradley Sutton, colonel of the Phoenix Legion. My grandfather was once comrades-in-arms with Mr. Holt Senior."Felix's attitude naturally shifted when he heard Bradley's introduction. If Ernest was a war hero, how could Bradley's grandfather be any less significant?"Hey, Bradley, what can I do for you?" Felix asked with a friendly tone."Alright. Zachary is my nephew. From what I understand, your disagreement with him isn't too serious. Could you do me a favor and allow him to apologize to you? Honestly, I only just found out about this situation."Felix pulled the car over to the side of the road, smiling. "Since it is you, of course, I'll give you this courtesy."After all, their disagreement hadn't gone too far. If it had, even Bradley's intervention wouldn't have helped."Thank you very much. I'll make sure my cousin keeps an eye on Zachary in the future."With that matter resolved, Felix turned his car around and decided to head home.…Meanwhile, Dora, who w

After Felix arrived at Tabiner Bay, he pulled into the parking lot and handed his keys to the security guard. He then told Dora to send someone over for the car. As he walked past Yvonne's villa, he noticed her sitting in her yard, even though it was already late. "Want to come in for a bit?" she offered after they locked eyes. "It's alright. I'm kind of tired." Curiosity flickered in Yvonne's eyes. Felix actually managed to get back from the Phoenix Legion unscathed. It seemed unlikely that they would arrest someone by mistake. It would be ridiculous if the Phoenix Legion had mobilized their teams without solid evidence, wouldn't it? "What other secrets are you hiding, Felix?" As Yvonne muttered to herself, she steeled herself. This was precisely why she was sent here. But part of her hoped she would not uncover anything. If she did, the chances of him being together with her boss might just become higher. Felix had barely stepped into his yard when Sherlyn dashed over.

Outside, Jaden was approaching slowly with a faint smile on his face. "He can't even sense the killing intent I'm releasing on purpose. This Felix guy is pretty average, isn't he?" He wanted to test the waters. Otherwise, nobody could have noticed his movements with his skills. "Are you Jaden Hault?" A woman suddenly appeared and blocked his path. Jaden squinted as he sized her up. He then smiled. "Well, well, if it isn't Xena Summers! Never thought our first meeting would be at such a place and timing." Jaden had seen Xena's pictures countless times. Even if she had looked hideous, he would still marry her and treat her well. That was because his mentor's divination demanded it. However, what man wouldn't appreciate beauty? He had been struck by her looks in the photos, so he was naturally overjoyed. He had basically already claimed her as his woman. "You're indeed very strong. I can tell just from your killing intent." Xena had mixed feelings about this. She never expecte
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 253
Xena knew Jaden had already achieved the level of Martial King. He was capable of projecting Primordial Energy to kill invisibly. The security cameras had already been destroyed. There would be no evidence even if the murder happened right before her eyes. Martial artists of this caliber were normally handled by the headquarters. Even as the goddess of war, she was not qualified to face someone of his strength. In desperation, Xena blurted out, "If you kill him, I will never be with you!" Frowning, Jaden lowered his hand. "Fine. I'll spare his life since you're the goddess of war and have duties to fulfill. But you'll have to explain this to your mentor. If not, my vow to him would become a joke."Xena sighed in relief. "I'll explain everything." The two of them left.In the yard, Felix had just seen Sherlyn off, too. He merely glanced their way without much concern. He would have confronted Jaden for sure if Xena had not been there. But since she was present, he preferred no

As Ronan was about to leave, Felix called out, "Wait a second. You don't seem very experienced. Why don't you stick with me until the Dragonia Martial Arts Competition begins? "Big cities can be full of bad people. Didn't your grandfather ever teach you? It takes years to learn to do good, but you can pick up bad habits in just a day."Ronan tilted his head, thinking for a long moment before breaking into a smile. "Alright, thanks! I had no idea where I was going to stay anyway. And you seem like a nice guy.""I seem like a nice guy?" Felix thought. "I am a nice guy!"It seemed like the Dragonia Martial Arts Competition was drawing out a lot of hidden young talents.After Ronan entered the car, Felix walked over to the unconscious man. With a few well-placed silver needles, he extracted the information he needed. However, what he learned left him conflicted.The man had been sent by Xena's eldest uncle to kill him because Felix had killed two of Xena's uncles.He wondered how m

The young man seemed to be in his early 20s. He casually lifted Felix's Rolls-Royce Cullinan with one hand as if it were weightless and started walking forward.Lifting something as heavy as a car was not something an ordinary person could do. However, he didn't just lift the car. After taking a few steps, he even balanced it on his pinky finger. Clearly, he wasn't just any martial artist. He had to be someone extraordinary.Felix had no choice but to step forward and stop him. "Excuse me, but that's my car."The young man paused, looking at Felix with a bit of confusion. "You're sure about that?"Felix showed him his keys to the car. "Yeah, I'm pretty sure."Seeing that, the young man carefully placed the car back down and scratched his head awkwardly. "My bad! I thought it was abandoned. Wait. Is this a Rolls-Royce?"The young man's expression was sincere, as if he hadn't been exposed to much of the world. "Yes. It's a Rolls-Royce model called the Cullinan," Felix replied.T

The old man burst into uncontrollable laughter after confirming the truth."Cured? Someone has actually managed to cure our family's Fish Man Disease? Oh, thank the heavens!"What the heck? Did that mean he didn't want to be a Fish Man?"I am Kayden Lannerby," the old man said. "And what's your name?""Felix Zeller."Kayden nodded and continued, "You may not know this, but the Fish Man Disease is a hereditary curse in my family, Felix. We've sought out countless famous doctors over the generations, but no one could treat it. "Truthfully, curing it is quite simple—when the silver scales begin to show, removing just one from the hand would return the person to normal. But the challenge lies in the fact that the scales can't be removed."Felix silently agreed. Even with his extraordinary medical skills, it had been an incredibly difficult task."From this moment onward," Kayden said with a trace of hope, "if Pierre builds a family of his own, perhaps the Fish Men lineage will fin

Felix was stunned that he had been detected. After all, he had even activated the Nightshade Discipline. Back when he was with Helena, his presence could not be sensed even at close range. "What's the matter? Are you not willing to show yourself?"Grinding his teeth, Felix revealed himself. About ten yards away, an elderly man was standing there, watching him intently. The old man had an ordinary appearance, with slightly clouded eyes, and stood with his hands behind his back. There wasn't the slightest trace of fear or nervousness in his demeanor."Sorry. Maybe we're just traveling the same path," Felix said, forcing a smile.The corners of the old man's lips curled up slightly as he chuckled. "There's no such thing as pure coincidence in this world. Besides, I've never seen an expert as young as yourself."As he spoke, the old man slowly extended his hands forward. Felix noticed he was wearing gloves. Was he a Fish Man?The realization hit him like a thunderclap. As the gl

"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
