Chapter 312

Author: Dreamy Fire
Timothy leaned in and said with a playful tone, "The Asuras and I will never reach those heights, and that's just how it is. But you're different! Don't forget to buy me a drink when you become Warlord."

Xena was ecstatic. She had not expected Timothy to decline any credit and report the truth. This meant she could skip the usual evaluations and networking. She would be promoted to Warlord directly. The boost in her status would be tremendous.

On her way back, Xena glanced at a courtyard residence along the street where Felix now lived. While the sight sparked a thought, she did not dwell on it.

She figured that Xander must have met with Felix by now. Then she chuckled at herself. What was she thinking? How could Felix possibly have healed Curtis? He was far too young to have such amazing medical skills.

Early the next morning, Felix headed out to go fishing with Ernest. He then found a car rudely blocking his gate. The only way out would be to step over the vehicle. Whoever

    At the cafe, Xena found Xander happily digging into his meal. "You're really enjoying your breakfast, Dr. Fielding." Xander smiled and said, "Indeed. Everything tastes better when your mind's at ease." Xena watched him eat in silence. Though burning with questions, she could not bring herself to speak. Finally, Xander wiped his mouth, his eyes showing a glint of admiration. "I have to say, Lady Summers, you're really a lucky one. Not only are you climbing the ranks, but you've got some remarkable friends." Friends? Xena was puzzled. "What do you mean?" Now, it was Xander's turn to look confused. Could there be a misunderstanding? "Isn't Felix your friend?" Felix? A sense of unease crept over Xena. "Are you saying Felix is the one who healed Grandpa?" Xander nodded. "That's right! Remember what I mentioned before? Mr. Kinsley Senior was cured by a young doctor whose skills are even better than mine. You tried to look into it, but the Kinsley family kept quiet. "That pers

    Felix was speechless. He had thought revealing the truth would change things, but clearly nothing had. "You've earned the right to pursue me now. You're getting closer to my ideal of what a man should be," Xena remarked.At this, Felix could not help but laugh bitterly. "I really don't know what to say to your narcissism. Think what you want. It's just one month, then we go our separate ways and never cross paths again." His attitude enraged Xena. "Did you seriously think being known as a teenage practitioner would make me chase after you? Let me tell you something. You'll never be able to catch up to me. I'm about to become Dragonia's first female Warlord and stand as equal with the Four Great Warlords. "Do you really think you have the right to act high and mighty with me? "Think carefully. I'm willing to give you a chance because you've proven your worth. If you miss this opportunity, you won't get another!" After Xena left, Felix collected himself. While her arrogance

    As night fell, Felix drove to an old, run-down dojo on the outskirts of the city. Getting out of his car, Felix found the place deserted. He muttered, "First, he picks this dump, then he's late." He was exhausted. Just when he had thought things were settling down, someone had used the Miracle Card. This meant another trip to Canraville the day after tomorrow. But he would not have to take a flight this time. He could drive there since it would be just a few hours on the highway. Five minutes later, headlights appeared from afar, and a car pulled up beside his Range Rover. Yale stepped out, his face a mask of displeasure. "What's with that face? Isn't being Dragon Lord everything you wanted?" Felix mocked.Yale's voice was ice-cold as he said, "Skip the chit-chat. What's so urgent? Is this about her?" He was confident Felix would not dare try anything. After all, Felix was now bound by Yvette's situation. Yale had also made Harold stir up all sorts of trouble here in Yartfor

    Felix picked up the Dragon Ring with a smile. "What? Do you have a problem with that?" The two deputies exchanged nervous glances. They had to keep their mouths shut because they knew Felix could end them just as easily. They would not have any chance to escape. "Vivian, come over here." After saying that, Felix mused on how true strength would always speak for itself. Vivian came to his side nervously. She expected to be scolded for showing up uninvited. Watching Felix take Yale down in an instant had blown her mind. She had known he was strong, but this was something else. As a deputy chief of Dragon Alliance, Yale was snuffed out like a candle. "Here, catch." She caught the Dragon Ring on reflex. "Felix… what're you doing?" He said with a smile, "What does it look like? Put it on. You're the Dragon Lord from now on. You'll be in charge of all affairs within Dragon Alliance." The deputies showing up had changed his plans. Being the Dragon Lord meant nothing to him now

    Dora had always been a nice person. She was still being polite even after Felix had already told her she could cash in that favor anytime. "Just tell me. I will help you if I can," Felix said."Great! There's this VIP who's sick. We heard that whoever can find a doctor to cure him will earn enough rewards to boost my family up a level. We could easily become the second most powerful family in the city." Her voice quickened with excitement. Clearly, she did not want to miss this chance. "Someone with your martial arts skills must have serious connections. Could you find us a master healer? They already tried Dr. Fielding, who's ranked tenth in the country. But even he was stumped. I've told you everything, but I wonder if it's too much to ask." Most people, or even the big shots, would lose hope after Xander failed to treat a patient. Getting one master healer did not guarantee access to better ones. Even Xena could not get Brandon to help. "Sure. Come by my place tomorrow mo

    "Why didn't you say so earlier? The act was killing me! Come on, let's drink. Whoever stays sober is a loser!" Vanessa said joyfully.Jack threw up his hands. "Man, I actually liked the sweet act. Felix just had to ruin it with one sentence." The next thing he knew, Vanessa pinched his ear. "Oh yeah? Love the cutesy voice, do you? Wait till we get home. I'll talk like that all night long. You'll get your fill, I promise!" Felix could not help but grin. Vanessa was quite the firecracker. Two hours later, Jack was carrying a passed-out Vanessa as he glared at Felix. "Damn it, man. Couldn't you have slowed her drinking down? So much for setting the mood tonight." Felix ignored him and made a gesture. Vivian appeared, handing over a tablet. Jack was already used to seeing all the beauties around Felix. "Thanks." Vivian turned away with a heavy heart. Who knew when she would see him again? "It's my first time meeting her, so I wasn't sure what to get her. Give her this when she

    The Longman family? Felix chuckled. He had been planning to check out the Longman family today anyway. Vivian's investigation had linked them to the troublemakers who had staged that scene and filmed it. But Gerald's call about the Miracle Card call had pushed those plans back since he had to go to Canraville tomorrow. Dora's request really came at a perfect time. "That smile of yours gives me the creeps for some reason," Dora remarked.Felix did not reply to that. He just gazed out the window. This visit would definitely smoke out whoever was pulling the strings. It would be one less headache to deal with. …Franklin and a few others were standing at the Longman residence, waiting. "Mr. Zeller," Franklin greeted Felix with the utmost respect. The others were probably Longman family members. "Dora, where's the master healer?" someone asked while peering into the empty car. "This is Felix Zeller, the master healer I brought," Dora replied.It was a gamble. It seemed unlik

    "I've paid back Dora's favor, so I'll now settle accounts with the Longman family," Felix suddenly said.The celebration died instantly at Felix's words. "Felix, what are you doing?" Dora was confused. Franklin stood there sweating as well. "Nothing much. I don't start fights, but I finish them. Joseph, someone from your family has been orchestrating schemes against me. They hired thugs to harass me while others filmed from the shadows. Do you want to handle this yourself, or should I start digging? It's up to you." In the past, anyone who dared talk to Joseph like this would have been crushed. But things were different now. After all, Felix had just casually treated an illness that had stumped Xander. His connections and power had to be terrifying. Even a hardened player like Joseph knew when to back down. "Mr. Zeller, give me some time to deal with this. If someone from my family has schemed against you, I'll send them over to you myself." Felix smiled slightly. Joseph had

    Felix felt like crying. After everything he had been through, his feelings for Gerald were beyond words. "Mr. Hoffman, I took another mentor in Martial City. Her name is Deborah Goddard, and she taught me pill cultivation. You won't mind, will you?" Gerald laughed and said, "Why would I? Pill cultivation will be extremely useful to you. If you hadn't taken up on her offer, I'd be the one punishing you." Then, Felix thought of something. "Mr. Hoffman, do you have any photos from when you were young?" "Why?""I want to see how handsome you were back then.""Hah! I'm enjoying the flattery. I was quite the charmer in my youth. My smile would make any girl swoon. But no, I don't have any photos, so don't bother asking." Felix had hoped to confirm if Gerald was the Ancient Sage Cordelia had mentioned, but that seemed unlikely now. Finally, he went on to the main topic. "I met Eloise."Gerald had been humming cheerfully on the other end, but the tune stopped at Felix's words."I

    Felix knew about this. All of his nine fellow apprentices indeed practiced different techniques, and Gerald had said those exact words. "Five years ago, I discovered a technique perfectly suited for me by chance, far more powerful than what I practiced then. Eventually, I couldn't resist trying it. I thought I could seek Mr. Hoffman's help if anything went wrong, but nothing happened."Felix felt utterly helpless. "So, you took such extreme measures over this?" Perhaps Gerald had his reasons for lying about other martial arts techniques, but surely this reaction was excessive. "Felix, do you think I'm that petty? If it were just that, of course not. My progress with that technique was remarkable."Over two years ago, I reached its highest level. That's when I discovered a seal on my body." Felix froze. He recalled Kevin's words during their battle in Martial City about what would happen if his nine fellow apprentices broke their seals. Could it be true?"I confronted Mr. Hof

    On the television sat a woman, her face devoid of expression. Anyone who saw her would be struck first by her royal bearing. Words like beautiful or gorgeous fell short. She commanded a presence like a queen, which would make anyone feel inadequate in comparison.But Felix did not feel that way. His jaw dropped, eyes filled with utter disbelief. The woman on the screen was none other than his fellow apprentice, Eloise. Felix knew no one could impersonate Eloise. Few had ever met her, let alone possessed the ability to mimic her demeanor. "Eloise?" His question betrayed his inner turmoil. "Felix." When the woman on screen responded, Felix lost all composure. He wished desperately that this was just a dream rather than reality. Eloise was the Grand Cardinal of the Westerio Order? Did that mean she had founded the organization? But why? No wonder they knew everything about him—it all made sense now."Leave us," she commanded.The Scarlet Cardinal bowed and left the room,

    Since the prison had no ties to Guneria, Felix did not mind causing a scene there. Luna added, "I've managed to bribe someone inside the prison who can provide intelligence at any time."Felix felt moved. "Thank you for doing all this, Luna." He remembered seeing her text messages when checking his phone earlier, asking him to reach out upon his return. It seemed this was the reason why. "I'd do anything for you."Though the timing felt wrong, Felix spoke up, "I'm married now. Her name is Nerissa."To his surprise, Luna smiled. "Thank you for telling me. I never dreamed we could be together. What we have is already precious enough. It left the deepest mark on my life." Felix sighed to himself. Matters of the heart were the most troublesome, yet sometimes circumstances left no choice."When the time comes to rescue Elliott, I'll let you know," Felix told her as the plane began its landing approach. He needed to find Melissa and Ronan first. "Okay. Please be careful," Luna

    After three years, Felix sat on a plane again, though his mind wandered elsewhere. As long as Melissa and Ronan were alive, there would be no issue. With him personally stepping in, their rescue was almost certain.His thoughts lingered more on Malevolent Phantoms. Until now, they had not encountered any A-tier Phantoms, so their true strength remained unknown. Felix was not arrogant enough to believe he was invincible.With so many martial artists around, no one could guarantee control over all of them. If they began a wholesale slaughter of the Phantoms, all their plans would crumble. They would not even risk telling Felix."Felix?"A sudden voice startled Felix. He never expected to meet Luna on a plane after all these years. "Luna? What a coincidence!"Luna burst into tears. Despite her usual composure, three years of separation had taken their toll. She threw herself into Felix's arms. "You're back! You're finally back safely." Felix patted her back awkwardly, aware of the

    Felix couldn't kill them? Felix almost thought Xena was joking. He now had almost perfected the Ethereal Constitution. Besides, he had Lumen and the Infinite Shield.He came back to show his skills. Yet now, they were telling him not to kill?"Although Dragonia doesn't have that much soul mastery, there are some for now. Additionally, after three years, several of our martial artists and top experts have the ability to kill the Malevolent Phantoms."At least there wouldn't be a problem dealing with the C-tier and B-tier Malevolent Phantoms. As for Billy, you're familiar with him. He can definitely kill the A-tier Malevolent Phantoms. But again, killing isn't allowed."Felix looked at her seriously. "Then, you'd better convince me."Xena was prepared for this answer. "The order is issued by the headquarters. The Malevolent Phantoms had been sent to gather intelligence. If you kill them—however you kill them—information about their death would be sent somewhere."As for where it'

    Felix was silent after hearing the news. After a long pause, he asked, "Are they dead?"Xena knew that despite seeming calm, Felix was like a ticking time bomb—one that was about to blow."No, no! Not long after you left, they were captured by the Westerio Order."The Westerio Order! Felix clenched his fists. He didn't expect that the loose ends he left behind would hurt Melissa. However, it was too urgent of a mission, and he wasn't strong then. Of course, he didn't want to go after the Westerio Order, but he truly didn't expect they would act upon his absence."I'm sorry," Xena said.Felix waved his hand dismissively. "It has nothing to do with you. Melissa and Ronan must've been traveling around the world at the time. They weren't under your protection then."He thought Ronan was strong enough to deal with sneak attacks. Besides, the Westerio Order wouldn't have sent a particularly strong person for the first time. After the first attack, Melissa and Ronan would've definit

    Felix felt like Cordelia was just going to say more and more outrageous things, so he hurried away. All of a sudden, he noticed Xena in an armored vehicle."Long time no see."Three years felt like it was yesterday. However, the difference was Felix wasn't conflicted anymore. Meanwhile, Xena's eyes were full of complex emotions. "I heard you got married in Martial City." She had seen and heard the news but didn't want to ask. Yet, she still brought it up now."Yes, I'm married now," Felix replied.There was a pause after his reply before she asked again, "Did you get married to complete the mission, or—"Felix didn't avoid her gaze and said seriously, "I really wanted to get married. Nerissa is truly a good woman, and she's worthy of my time."With that answer, Xena turned away, looking around outside before composing herself. As for what she was thinking, even she wasn't clear on what she wanted. "The Malevolent Phantom I met in Martial City… I didn't notice it before. Is

    Xena immediately shook her head. "I dare not say that I know him best, but he is a man who values loyalty and righteousness. If we hide it from him and he finds out through other people, I don't think we can bear the consequences later."A thick silence fell. After a few minutes, Lionel spoke up, "Just… Just do as is. Why don't you tell Felix about those two people?"An hour later, the great mountain in front of them disappeared. Instead, an endless field replaced it. The Warlords were unfazed, but the soldiers from headquarters were stunned.After all, this was like a scene out of a movie. It was incredible. When they got out of their shock, they realized a lot of people stood in the field—so many that they couldn't count.The leader was naturally Felix."Hello, everyone. Long time no see." Felix's face was full of emotion as he saw those familiar faces again. After three years, he had finally come home. No matter how much he felt like he belonged in Martial City, there was n
