The middle-aged man spun around. Seeing who had tapped his shoulder, his scowl instantly melted into a fawning grin. "Mr. Zimmerman? You... You must be joking. I'd never dare summon you." Without warning, George, who had just appeared, slapped the man hard across the face. "You piece of trash! How dare you talk to Mr. Zeller like that?" Mr. Zeller?The man's mind went crazy as he started to panic. Did George really call this guy "Mr. Zeller"? No way! Felix was Wendy's friend, so his social status had to be so low that he would not even be fit to lick Sean's boots.But the evidence was right in front of him, and he did not dare doubt it. "Mr. Zimmerman, please forgive me. I had no idea." Another slap landed. George waved his hand dismissively. "Get out! You're not even worthy of apologizing to Mr. Zeller. Tell Sean Jackman about this. He'll know how to deal with it." "Yes, yes! I'm leaving right now!" Felix kept quiet. With George stepping in, Wendy was out of the woods.
Felix and George settled into the fourth row, gesturing to the staff to push their single-seater chairs together. Considering the high-profile attendees present, Felix could not help but feel curious about George's bold move. It was a clear statement to others about their close relationship. "Showing me this much love? What if my ties with Moonshadow Alliance aren't as close as you think?" Felix teased. George shrugged casually and said, "Come on. A friend is a friend, and having more friends means more opportunities. I'll prove myself through actions. If I ever need your help and you're able and willing, I won't hesitate to ask. If you can't, no hard feelings. Life's unpredictable, you know?" Felix nodded in agreement, a smile playing on his lips. Then, George continued, "The first three rows are off-limits to the younger crowd."George's explanation hinted at his own elevated position. In other words, the fourth row onward was where the younger generat
George keenly noticed the change in Felix's expression. He patted Felix's shoulder sympathetically and said, "Tough luck, Felix. Take my advice—you can't outbid Lady Nala." Felix furrowed his brow and asked, "Is it always about money at the Golden Prime Auction?"If it came down to cash, Nala might have the upper hand; someone with her status in Yartford would surely not be short on funds. Unless Gerald's assets were unfrozen for him, Felix was unsure if Leslie's Concord Bank's Supreme Black Card would suffice. George explained, "Not always. Most items go for cash, but some have weird requirements. You never know until the moment arrives." With concern evident in his voice, he added, "Felix, you're not seriously thinking of competing with Lady Nala, are you?" Felix could not help but chuckle. "What's wrong? Worried that I'll drag you into this?"To his surprise, George shook his head. "That's not it. It's all fair game in auctions. Besides, Lady Nala isn't petty enough to hold
George had murmured under his breath, which piqued Felix's interest. Indeed, for the first time, no one in the entire hall placed a counterbid, proving that George had not been exaggerating."30 million dollars," the electronically-altered voice from earlier announced. It was done to protect the identity of those in the private boxes. Knowing the drill, the auctioneer did not wait for another bid and immediately brought the hammer down. He declared, "Sold for 30 million dollars! Congratulations!" Even though Nala could have easily won with a casual bid of a few hundred thousand, she chose to pay a respectable amount. It spoke volumes about her wealth and integrity."Still think you have a shot at Item 18?" George persisted, trying to dissuade Felix from challenging Nala as he was unaware of just how crucial Moon's Tear was to him."We'll see. I think I know what Lady Nala is up to," Felix replied.George could not help but be curious and asked, "Oh? Care to share?"Felix expl
Felix's bold move caught the attention of everyone in the room. The crowd whispered among themselves, wondering who this newcomer was. They could not believe that he actually dared to challenge Nala as he would surely not stand a chance.Even the auctioneer, who had hosted the Golden Prime Auction for years, was taken aback by this unprecedented turn of events. It was his first time seeing someone competing against Nala.Yvonne reported, "Miss, Felix raised his hand."She was stunned by his action and could not understand what Felix was trying to achieve. It would have been understandable if he had been at the event alone. However, he was with George, who would have undoubtedly warned him beforehand.Nala's eyes sparkled with intrigue as she watched the scene unfold below. "Let's see what kind of connection he can pull out," she mused. There were only a few true master healers in Dragonia, and the top three were so highly regarded that even many so-called important figures would
The moment the auctioneer confirmed the Miracle Card's authenticity, the room erupted. The once-quiet auction hall was buzzing with discussion. After all, the power and value of a Miracle Card were impossible to ignore."F-Felix actually traded a Miracle Card for Moon's Tear?" Yvonne stuttered, dumbfounded by Felix's decision. As Nala said before, Yvonne also thought it was simply short-sighted of Felix to do so. With the right strategy, a Miracle Card could yield an unimaginable return. For instance, the Kinsley family from Avesburgh had been wise. They made a spectacle of auctioning off a Miracle Card, which caught the attention of Moonshadow Alliance. Consequently, they had gone from being a small local name to a recognized force in Yartford, gaining a foothold in record time. Hence, Yvonne regarded Felix's move as a waste.Nala's disappointment was palpable. "If you don't have anything worth keeping in Avesburgh, don't bother going back," she told Yvonne coldly.Yvonne cou
When Felix landed in Avesburgh at midnight, his phone buzzed with missed calls and messages as he turned it on. Among the callers were people from Tabiner Bay, Ernest, and even Xena.Felix was puzzled, wondering why so many people tried to reach him even at this late hour. After a moment of hesitation, he decided to call Ernest back. The man had tried several times, so it had to be something urgent. "Mr. Holt Senior, I just landed. Is everything okay?""You need to come back quickly. Your villa caught fire. It's just been put out, but there's nothing much left."Felix's mind immediately flashed to Harold, and he made a silent decision as he rushed to Tabiner Bay. When he arrived, Xena was waiting at the entrance, and the villa was nothing more than a charred shell behind her. "Do you need the Phoenix Legion to help with the investigation?" Xena asked, her expression neutral.She knew a regular fire would unlikely harm a skilled martial artist like Felix unless he had
Xena scoffed at the idea that Felix had stayed all day. She thought it was a pathetic attempt to impress her, doubting that his presence could actually wake Curtis. Nonetheless, she did not dwell on the matter and stepped out into the courtyard, her gaze fixed in the distance as if waiting for someone. About half an hour later, a car pulled up, and Jaden stepped out. "Xena, I've brought Dr. Quinn," he announced proudly. Xena had rushed back to Avesburgh because Jaden had managed to secure Brandon's services. Despite being only one rank above Seth, Brandon's medical skills were vastly superior. Among master healers, the top three were the true legends. Even Xena herself did not have the influence to summon him, so Jaden's success was impressive. She believed if anyone could heal Curtis, it would be Brandon. As Jaden finished speaking, he opened the car door, and a man in his 50s stepped out—it was none other than Brandon himself. Unlike the usual elderly doctors with graying h
Because the gap between the members of the Jacobs family's strength and Felix's was huge, it was impossible for them to escape. They were all beaten up by him, without leaving behind a single corpse. Only by killing these members of the Jacobs family could there no longer be any continuation.When Felix entered the house, he lay on the bed. He didn't think that he was exposed by Vanessa or her family. With the Jacobs family's and Elders' Council's capability of finding information, learning about it was easy. Besides, everyone's gazes and expressions were normal during the wedding. He couldn't be bothered to look into it more.At this time, Felix received a call from Xena. "Xena.""Don't call me like that. I hope you always remember that! Giving you a call means nothing. You just need to listen. After I finish speaking, I'll block you again."Felix's mood wasn't affected much. After experiencing such a difficult battle, he felt neutral. He only needed to try his best to make up f
"Who's there?" The sudden scene halted Charles' movements."This sword…" Only Oliver was staring at the sword as his eyes widened. "It's the Duo Moon Sword. Could it be Sword Goddess?"Sword Goddess? Even Charles' expression changed. He took a sharp breath. Sword Goddess was considered a legend. There was a year when Sword Goddess traveled to various parts of Dragonia with her sword. Whenever she encountered injustice, she would take action, resolving it with just one move. To this day, no one had ever been worthy enough to see her second move."We should go!" When Oliver returned to his senses, he quickly reminded everyone to leave. He didn't dare to stay there any longer."Can we really escape?" Luca's legs couldn't move. He was frightened. A martial arts master in the early stage of Blood Realm was frightened to this extent. No one would have believed it if news spread."Calm down! If Sword Goddess wanted to kill us, we would have been dead long ago. She's letting us leave."
"Fire Dragon!" Huge flames appeared above Felix out of nowhere. After a spin, the flames headed toward Oliver, who was in midair.The flames collided with the Cross Slayer mid-way. They diminished quickly. As both moves collided, Felix didn't dare to pause at all because the attacks of Luca, Charles, and the others had reached the point where he didn't have the chance to catch his breath."Dancing Dragon!" The Dancing Dragon was deployed again. It cut off the sudden attack. The movement was so smooth that it couldn't be compared to the previous one. When there was an empty spot, Oliver entered through the only ball of flame and hit Felix on the chest. Felix spat out a mouthful of blood and stumbled a few steps back."Help me put out the fire! He has already used all his strength. He is no longer a threat!"When Luca and the others were about to kill Felix when the latter was weak, they were summoned by Oliver.Felix stood in the same spot and didn't dare to move because his en
"Rising Dragon!" When Felix made a move, Luca's and Charles' expressions changed. The two took action simultaneously. With a loud boom, Felix was nowhere to be seen. It turned out it was a decoy."Can he escape?" Luca and Charles disappeared. Meanwhile, the other members of the Jacobs family had only reached Pulse Realm, so they couldn't participate in this battle. They could only wait in the same spot."Levi! Isn't Felix a bit too exaggerating?" Someone asked, but Levi couldn't answer him because he was still stunned.Charles and Luca were superb martial arts masters in the middle stage of the Blood Realm. It was already terrifying that Felix could escape with one move.One yard away, Felix stopped because three other people appeared before him. Their faces were all covered.Although they seemed unremarkable at first glance, their demeanor caused Felix to have a serious expression for the first time.The two were in the middle stage of Blood Realm, while the other had reached th
Actually, Felix was trained in Dragons Destroyer. There were five pieces of the Dragonspine in his body as well. He could fight against someone at a higher cultivation level than him with no issue.But he didn't dare to act recklessly in the current situation because Elders' Council was involved as well. He couldn't be certain that there wasn't anyone else from Elders' Council present aside from Luca.Elders' Council had suffered losses because of Felix. Once they had gotten a hold of the news, they would definitely kill him."Felix, you're so young, yet you're already so strong. You're indeed gifted, but being cunning and having good strategies only come with age. Do you think that we don't know you're stalling for time by talking nonsense?"Luca exuded his strong presence as he raised his right hand. "I only cooperated with you because I need the Jacobses to witness me killing you. Otherwise, you would have been dead long ago!"At this time, the people who rushed over from afar
When Charles spoke up, Felix had already secretly made a call to the phone Dahlia left behind. As for whether or not she could arrive in time, that depended on fate.It acted as a layer of security. Felix had the Speed Talisman given by Gerald. If he couldn't win, he could still escape. Even if he couldn't escape, at least he could buy some time."The Jacobs family? I've never heard of this family before."Looking at Felix, Charles snorted. "You're so young, yet you already have such great capability. You dare to do it, but you're afraid of admitting it? I have seriously overestimated you in the past! Do you dare to say that you didn't kill Mason, who's a genius in my family?"Everything was just to buy some time. Felix looked as though he had thought of something. "Mason? You're right. I killed him. I only killed him because he wanted to kill me. I can't possibly just tie my own hands and let him kill me, can I?"Felix didn't expect Charles to be so overbearing. "That's right!
"I've thought it through! If Abyssal Surge Sect were a decent sect, I wouldn't have had a dispute with you guys. If a patient found me, I wouldn't refuse to treat the patient, either. But for the things you've done, how are you any different from beasts? "You want me to respect you? Abyssal Surge Sect is nothing to me!"Hendrick never expected Felix to say such things. He immediately got up. "Alright, then. I'll let the sect know your attitude when I go back. I hope you can still be so stubborn when we meet next time."Abyssal Surge Sect trained Skybound Revenants and let them kill people once they were skilled. If Felix looked up to Abyssal Surge Sect, he could just die.He was currently under attack from all sides. If he weren't in this situation, he would have already annihilated Abyssal Surge Sect to remove the threat once and for all.…The wedding was carried out successfully. Felix drank quite a lot of alcohol as well. Soon, the wedding was coming to an end. After toastin
Felix's expression changed, but he still smiled and said, "It is a large sect. It's a good thing."Although he said that, he thought, "Fuck! They investigated this so quickly. Are they treating me as an enemy already?"To be honest, he felt as though he was taking the blame for someone else. From the beginning to the end, this matter had nothing to do with him."Why are you glaring at me?" Billy ran his finger through his buzz cut and opened the mirror. "Did I get more handsome?"Felix wanted to cry. Billy was the one who found the Skybound Revenant, so why did Abyssal Surge Sect shift the hatred to Felix?…Around 9:00 am, Felix brought Melissa to a hotel's banquet hall, where weddings in Canraville were held. George, Ryan, Madeline, Luke, Wendy, and the others had arrived. They were all people Felix knew."This is my sister, Melissa."Upon arriving there, Melissa acted quite shy. "Nice to meet everyone."Then, George and Ryan fought to give Melissa a seat."Melissa, sit her
Felix felt speechless. "I said, as long as you're willing to help, in addition to the agreed dojo, you'll also get a chance to dine with Dreamscape."After receiving confirmation, Billy patted his chest and said, "Humph! Don't insult me with these rewards. As a citizen, cooperating is my duty. Just leave it to me!""Damn it, Billy!" Felix thought, trying to suppress his irritation."Time to work my magic and track down that Skybound Revenant," Billy suddenly said. "Everyone, leave! Phoenix Warlord and Felix, you two stay."At Alistair's command, everyone quickly evacuated, leaving only the three of them in the open space.Felix waved his right hand, sending out a wave of energy to ensure there were no living people around and that the village was empty before signaling Billy to begin.He was being cautious, worried that a member of Abyssal Surge Sect might still be nearby. But he was probably overthinking it—after all, even the boldest person wouldn't risk staying here for too lo
