Chapter 301

Author: Dreamy Fire
"Bullshit! It only took a minute! Are you seriously done? Say one more word, I dare you!" Elliott shouted.

Just as Elliott said that, his mentor loaded the patient onto the truck. "Start examining him immediately!" he directed.

When the examination was done, Elliott stood in place, stunned, as he stared at the test reports. He was feeling an overwhelming wave of emotion.

The patient they brought from the Guneria, who was in the early stages of lung cancer, was completely cured.

"Elliott, do you believe in the wonders of traditional medicine now?" his mentor asked.

Elliott gave his mentor a complicated look.

"But… How is this even possible? A person with early-stage cancer was healed in a minute! What's the point of spending years and huge amounts of money on the drugs we've been developing?"

The mentor chuckled. "Every field needs pioneers, doesn't it? Dragonia has a 5,000-year-old history. Keep working hard, and we can create miracles of our own, too."

For the rest of his life

    Lying flat on the bed, Felix responded, "Does it really matter?"Yvonne was at a loss for words, unsure how to answer. Without specific instructions from Nala, she didn't dare speak further."Rest well. I will take my leave," she said softly.As she reached the door, Felix's voice followed. "Soon, I'll have my answer. When the time comes, I want to hear what you truly feel in your heart."Yvonne gripped the door handle tightly and left him with a final parting remark before closing the door. "I hope you find happiness in your life. As for my answer—you'll never get it."Without dwelling on it, Felix picked up his phone and saw a missed call from an unknown number. He immediately dialed back, only to discover it was a disconnected line.Just a few seconds later, another call from a different number came in. He picked up, and he heard Gerald's voice."You little brat. You're not even picking up your mentor's calls now?" Gerald chided.Felix sighed, exasperated. Older people alway

    Nala gazed at Yale with an unreadable expression. She reminded, "Remember what I said before? There's a one-month trial period. Mr. Jones, are you perhaps being a bit too impatient?"A hint of displeasure flashed across Yale's face, and he responded in a low voice, "A month is too long. Those people abroad have already agreed. Why insist on waiting another day or two? Besides, I am now the Dragon Lord; there's no need to pretend it was otherwise."A subtle smile appeared at the corner of Nala's lips as she waved her hand dismissively."But are you truly secured in your title as Dragon Lord? Leave now. I said one month, and one month it will be. No one can change my decision."Yale clenched and unclenched his fists, but he ultimately left without saying another word.…The next morning, Felix returned to Avesburgh and went straight to Xena's home. After all, there was nothing more pressing on his agenda.When he knocked on the door, Xena opened it with an expressionless face."C

    Curtis stood up and stretched before saying, "I've only recently recovered, and some of my friends keep inviting me out, so I'm heading out. Xena personally made lunch today, so stay and eat, Felix.""Alright," Felix agreed.The moment Curtis left, Xena shot an annoyed glare at Felix."Don't think that just because my grandfather said we're in a relationship, you can ask me to do anything," she spat out.Felix spread his hands nonchalantly. "Relax. I'm not interested in you. I just need to get through this month.""You!"Xena's body trembled with anger. She was the dream girl of countless men, and yet here Felix was, saying he had no interest. It felt like an insult."Are you eating or not? If not, you can leave," Xena said.With a wave of his hand, Felix turned to leave. He wasn't about to waste his energy interacting with Xena. Since they both disliked each other, he figured that for the next month, he would just put up with it for Curtis' sake.Although the engagement wasn'

    "I'm going to die?" the young man asked, stunned. He knew how healthy his body was. How could he be about to die?"You don't believe me? Let me show you some proof," Felix said calmly.With that, he extended his other hand toward one side of the alley, releasing a powerful suction force from his palm. This was an advanced use of Primordial Energy, something only those at the Martial Emperor level could control with such ease.The next moment, as the young man watched in disbelief, a figure was pulled through the air toward them. Judging by the expression on the man's face, it was clear he hadn't expected to be pulled out from his hiding spot."You weren't just recording for fun, right?" Felix asked.The middle-aged man who hurtled toward them was shocked, but his eyes kept darting back and forth as if calculating his next move."W-what do you want? What did you do to me? Let me go!" the man shouted.Felix gave a cold chuckle and released him. Initially, he thought the man had si

    "What happened?" Xena asked.After thinking it over, Felix had decided to call Xena to handle the situation. He couldn't be bothered, and he didn't bother to treat Lennox either."Your cousin showed up out of nowhere and attacked me. I had no choice but to knock him out," Felix explained.Xena clearly didn't believe him and said, "Impossible! He's the only son of my third uncle. Just like my uncle, he is honest and straightforward. He would never attack someone without reason."Damn it! Felix was displeased that Xena didn't believe him."Oh really? Honest and straightforward, is he? I don't know about that, but he seems to be a martial arts fanatic. Am I wrong?" Felix retorted.Xena went silent. Indeed, Lennox had dreamed of practicing martial arts ever since he was young, but her uncle never allowed it. Otherwise, she would have asked him to join Phoenix Legion long ago."What about him?" Xena asked."From the moment Lennox arrived, he had been hiding behind the alley and taki

    Xena stood frozen in place. Xander's words repeated in her mind. It was exactly the same as what Felix had warned her earlier."What's wrong?" Xander asked.It wasn't until Xander spoke again that she snapped back to reality, realizing now wasn't the time to dwell on those thoughts."So… Can you cure my cousin?" Xena asked hesitantly.Xander nodded. "Yes! The poison in his body is strong. It will only be triggered by physical impact. But once it is identified, treating it is quite straightforward."Suddenly, a thought struck Xena. "Wait a second. You said his body can't handle any impact, but he was knocked unconscious by someone!"A strange look crossed Xander's face. He sighed helplessly. "You're a skilled martial artist yourself. Do you really think it always takes force to knock out an ordinary person? Just a touch to the right pressure point would have been enough."Xena fell silent as she watched Xander begin the treatment, but her mind drifted back to Felix. Why had he sa

    Brandon answered right away, "How could that be possible? Xander, are you out of your mind? It was Phantom Poison, and you say they've been bedridden for how long? You're overestimating me. I bet only two people in the world could cure it. "If you talk nonsense like this again, don't blame me for blacklisting you."The sound of the call ending left Xena utterly stunned."Now, do you believe me?" Xander asked.Xander's expression was grave. The situation was too strange. Curtis had been cured, but they had no clue who did it. His curiosity was piqued to the extreme. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made that call in the first place.After a long moment, Xena anxiously asked, "Then who could it be? I didn't call any famous doctor. I know my own abilities. I couldn't even afford to hire Dr. Quinn, let alone a miracle doctor."Xander cautiously said, "Think carefully. As the goddess of war, you must have arranged for someone to secretly guard the villa and protect your grandfather. It wo

    When Felix arrived at the restaurant, he pushed open the private room door, but Xena wasn't there. Instead, there was only Xander, who stood up, looking shocked."You… it's you!" Xander exclaimed.With a casual smile, Felix raised his hand and was about to leave. "Sorry. Wrong room."However, Xander hastily called after him. "No! You're not in the wrong room. This is the one Xena booked."Felix hesitated for a moment, but then he walked back inside. He asked, "What's going on? Did Xena invite you too?"Xander's emotions were a tangled mess. He never would have imagined that the mysterious doctor who cured Curtis turned out to be the young man he had once met at the gathering. Fate really had a strange way of playing tricks."I asked Xena to bring you here because I suspected that someone other than Dr. Quinn cured Curtis. Now, my biggest doubt has been cleared."After hearing Xander's explanation, Felix couldn't help but laugh. He hadn't expected such a misunderstanding. It must

    The existence of crossbreeds was classified as top secret by headquarters. If word got out, even if the general public remained unaware, just the knowledge reaching certain members within headquarters would cause mass panic.Would you dare to question whether your partner might be a Malevolent Phantom? Would you risk wondering if your child inherited some of its traits and became a crossbreed? No one wanted to shoulder that responsibility.Take Johann and his team, for example. They had absolutely no knowledge of crossbreeds, and their resistance right now stemmed entirely from their own moral convictions."Sir!"Johann didn't dare stop Felix outright, but he raised his voice to make his stance clear. The others followed suit, not to mention Lina, who was still sobbing uncontrollably, and Steve, whose eyes were red with fury as he glared at Felix without a hint of fear."Mr. Zeller! If you're really going to take my grandson, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"Tears st

    "So what?" Lina asked. "Even if I lied, what does that person's death have to do with my son?"Felix suddenly roared, "Are you telling me that when you opened the door, your son never left your sight for even a second?""I—"Lina opened her mouth but suddenly found herself at a loss for words. That instinctive hesitation was the most telling of all."Get the car ready. Take her with us. We're going to Lina's house.""Yes, sir!"The convoy arrived at a luxurious mansion in Zuera. The moment Felix and his team rushed inside, they saw Steve sitting in the living room, holding a three-year-old boy in his arms."Mr. Zeller, why are all of you here?"Lina, restrained by Felix's men, screamed in a frenzy, "Dad! Save Leonardo! They're trying to take him away!"Then, she turned to Felix, shouting in fury, "You monsters! He's just three years old, and you suspect him of murder? I'll expose you! I'll take you to court!"By the time she finished, she was sobbing uncontrollably."Mr. Zel

    Even though Lina knew Felix held an unimaginably high status—so high that even Steve feared him—his continued questioning and the direction of his suspicions pushed her to the edge. The mere idea that her son might be involved sent her into a silent rage.She was a mother, and when it came to her child, she did not care who the hell the other person was."I'm just asking questions," Felix said flatly. "Just answer them. Don't make me start quoting laws and rights to get you to cooperate."His voice was so calm. For a moment, Lina wondered if she had overreacted, so she took a breath and continued.She explained, "He wasn't in the stall. It's way too small in there. I left the door cracked open so he could see me, and since I had the tether on, plus the nanny and driver waiting outside, I wasn't worried about him wandering off."Felix did not say anything right away. He stood there, clearly deep in thought.Silvercrest Restaurant might have been an upscale dining place, but it was

    "Can you cooperate now?" Felix asked calmly.Lina snapped back to her senses, her face burning with embarrassment. "I'm sorry," she said quickly. "I'll fully cooperate from now on."Sure enough, seeing the richest man's daughter completely fold made the rest of the group abandon any rebellious thoughts. Whatever frustration they had been feeling vanished instantly.Once they were settled, Felix began examining them closely. This was not just a casual observation. He activated his Spirit Eye, a skill from the Phaeron Codex that allowed him to see into a person's soul.After reaching Higher Spirit Realm, Felix had gained access to this ability, but he had never actually used it to inspect a Malevolent Phantom before. Still, he was sure of one thing—their souls would look nothing like normal humans'.So, checking with Spirit Sight was a far more reliable method than looking at whether someone's wounds were healing.When Felix finished scanning all nine people, he froze, completely s

    A few minutes later, Felix stepped into the restroom that had been sealed off. It was a fully enclosed space, with no windows—just a single ventilation fan. That meant there was only one entrance and exit.He examined the body sitting upright on the toilet in one of the stalls. The man's head was resting gently against the tiled wall. His pants were already pulled back up and fastened, clearly indicating he had finished using the restroom. More importantly, it was obvious no one had touched or tampered with the body.Felix commented, "No need to call in forensics. There are no external wounds, and his internal organs are completely intact. We can also rule out heart failure or brain hemorrhages. This wasn't caused by any natural condition."With his medical background, it only took Felix a glance to determine the truth.Johann replied, "Yes, sir. But then… what now? Should we interrogate those nine people?"The closer they got to confirming Malevolent Phantoms were involved, the

    Felix said, "Go ahead, Delilah. Zara's in your hands now—take care of her on the road.""Don't worry," Delilah replied.Once Zara was gone, Felix stood there for a moment, feeling a weight settle over his chest. She had already been through so much just surviving the ordeal of Twinshade Body, and he had promised himself—without saying a word—that he would make sure she never suffered like that again.However, no one could have predicted the sudden arrival of the Malevolent Phantoms. That was a nightmare nobody could escape, and only by ending it would they have the right to even dream of a peaceful life.…That evening, as the sun dipped low on the horizon, Felix was having dinner with Luna at a quiet restaurant, and Paul had joined them, too."Thank you, Mr. Zeller. Holden is awake and doing surprisingly well," Paul said, raising his glass.He was genuinely grateful. Even the doctors had called it a miracle. Holden had a severed artery and was transported across a long distance

    "Mr. Hoffman?" Felix muttered. No wonder Delilah had shown up in person."Why didn't Mr. Hoffman just call me?" he asked.Delilah shrugged, raising both hands. "Because it's not convenient. If you make one choice, I can report back and be done with it, saving everyone the time."Felix nodded, finally curious about this big choice. Then, Delilah asked, "Zara, the one with Twinshade Body, came to see you, didn't she?"That caught Felix off guard. "How do you know about that?"Delilah rolled her eyes with a little smirk. If one of her fans saw her like this, they would probably faint from the shock.She explained, "It's not like I'm psychic. Mr. Hoffman told me. Ever since you left Martial City and came back, he's had Ophelia keeping an eye on Zara the whole time, so of course he knows."Ophelia? That explained why he had not seen her around since coming back. "So, what's the choice Mr. Hoffman wants me to make? Is it really about Zara?"Delilah nodded firmly. "Exactly. Mr. Hoff

    Donna said, "Felix, Specter's the kind of guy who'll stop at nothing. I'll hold back and observe for now, but if you really prove you've got what it takes, I'll act like I never even saw that woman."…Later, Zara was resting her chin in both palms with a sweet, innocent smile on her face. She hummed, "Mhm!"Felix let out a groan and rubbed his face. "Don't just say 'mhm'! Did you even understand what I just told you?"After piecing together everything Donna had said, Felix laid it all out for Zara. Since Specter could strike at any time and Zara still did not know what Malevolent Phantoms even were, he figured she needed to hear it all."Of course I understood. Relax, honey. I'm not stupid," Zara replied casually. Since she got it, Felix finally let himself relax, too. A weight lifted off his chest, and for the first time in a while, he really looked at Zara's flawless face. He thought, "Yeah—there's no way I can hold back anymore."He said, "Let's take care of something… imp

    Felix finally snapped out of it. Just moments ago, Donna had looked so grim, claiming something big was about to happen. Yet now, after her whole speech, it was all about the benefits of Zara being a Hollow Soul.Donna said, "Hollow Soul has a unique trait. If consumed, it can greatly boost your chances of success.""Consumed?" That one word made Felix's face darken instantly. "Success in what exactly?"Donna had tried to be vague, but there was no way Felix did not get the implication. To put it bluntly, she was talking about eating Zara's soul."Whether you're stuck at a plateau in your cultivation, your soul is mutating, or you're trying to master powerful soul-based techniques—offensive or defensive—if it's soul-related, Hollow Soul can drastically increase your chances of success."Felix's expression shifted as something came rushing back to him. Billy had once told him that when the Mystical Explosive Orb absorbed enough soul essence to reach capacity, it could be used to re
