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

Around six in the evening, Felix was sitting in his courtyard when Kane walked in. "What brings you here?" Felix asked.Kane's expression showed the same respect as always. Just like Vivian, Felix was the only Dragon Lord in his eyes and no one else. "Mr. Zeller, since you finally gave me a task, I had to report back personally." That was true. After Vivian left, Kane was Felix's go-to person for intel. But he had not expected Kane to show up in person. "I appreciate it. Have a seat." Once he sat down, Kane got straight to it. "You told me to look into that guy Jaden. Turns out he's quite the player. He's the youngest elder in Crimson Sage Sect's history. His mentor is one of their sect's Supreme Elders too, and he's actually the oldest and strongest amongst them." Crimson Sage Sect? Felix was unfazed. "So he's got an ancient mentor backing him. That'll be a bit of a hassle." By hassle, Felix meant time-wasting instead of fear. Even Kane could read that much. "How do you rat

Vanessa's expression lit up when she saw Felix. "You came at the right time, Felix! My car broke down. I just got off the phone with Jack when you showed up." Her car broke down? Felix then asked, "Are you heading back to Canraville?" "Yeah, it's my nephew's birthday tonight. What about you?" "I'm driving there too." In typical Vanessa fashion, she did not hesitate to ask for his help. "Perfect! Why don't you give me a ride? I'll tell Jack to send someone for the car. It'll save me a ton of time." "Sure." On the road, Vanessa kept studying Felix till he got uncomfortable. "Is there something on my face?" She shook her head and turned serious. "Do you know how precious that martial arts scripture you gave me is?" Felix smiled. "It doesn't matter. It's fine as long as you like it." Vanessa continued, "So you did spot that I'm a martial artist. That's impressive. It's wild that a regular guy like Jack has someone like you for a friend. "But honestly, thank you. That

Something felt off at this point. Before Felix could speak, all hell broke loose. Boom!All four doors of the Raptor exploded outward, with windows shattering everywhere. Baldo went flying through the windshield to somewhere about 50 feet away. Only then did he manage to land steadily. Even with blood trickling from his mouth, he wore a sinister grin. "Haha! It seems you're both a master healer and a martial artist, just like the miracle doctor." Felix stepped out, studying Baldo. That hit was not weak, yet Baldo only had minor injuries. He had to be a Martial Emperor, at least. "Did you use a Miracle Card just to try and kill Mr. Hoffman? I'm impressed by your audacity and your stupidity," Felix sneered.Baldo licked the blood from his lips as his grin widened. "Nope! Who'd dare target the miracle doctor? You're his disciple, so we knew you'd come instead. Get it?" Oh? Felix's eyes showed contempt. "But you're not in my league either." A breeze whispered through, and sud

"Nice talk. Let's see if you can walk away alive today!" Vilebane snarled.The one who could strike first would certainly gain the upper hand. Having sensed Vilebane's power, Felix was not about to wait around. He thrust both hands skyward as his energy surged. The clear sky instantly darkened with storm clouds.The sight of that astounded Baldo, who was hiding in a nearby building. "Damn! He must've started training in the womb. Just his opening move could kill me ten thousand times over!" Boom!Thunder rolled as five massive lightning bolts crashed down, each thick as pillars. It was a terrifying scene to behold. "Five Thunders Strike!" This was Felix's strongest move. Before this, no one had warranted using it until he met Vilebane. The thunderous impacts carved a massive crater in the ground. "Not bad, kid!" To Felix's horror, Vilebane's voice cut through the chaos. Felix instinctively leaped back. Vilebane appeared before him almost immediately with his fist stuck out.

Ginny was naturally present as well, and she spoke up at that moment. "Mr. Goldstein, no one wanted to see Justus die like that. But why did you bring your people to Longstone residence? Are you suggesting that his sudden death has something to do with us?"Joaquin's expression grew darker as he looked at her. He blamed Ginny for this, thinking that none of this would have happened if she had just agreed earlier. And now, they couldn't even determine the cause of death."No connection? That doctor from your household, Felix Zeller—he's the one responsible for Justus' death."Right then, someone spoke up from the crowd. "That's him! That's Felix Zeller!"Felix, who had been calmly sitting in a chair, finally saw Wagner standing among them. And in that moment, everything made sense."Wagner? You've gotten quite bold, huh?" Gras sneered.Wagner flinched at Gras's words, but remembering that he now had the Goldsteins backing him, he stiffened his spine and stood tall. "Cut the crap

In Cloud City, there were a few noble families. Nonetheless, behind the polite smiles, tensions surged. Infiltrating each other's estates with spies had practically become a tradition. While they rarely uncovered major secrets, the information they did gather always gave them a head start.So when the news broke, Gras didn't doubt it for a second. He jumped to his feet, furious. "This is outrageous! Their son dies, and somehow it's the Longstone family's fault?"Ryker looked just as puzzled, agreeing that the accusation made no sense.But Felix let out a quiet, weary sigh. "Mr. Longstone, I'm afraid this is probably my fault. I'm a doctor, and I've gotten a bit of attention lately. After they failed to determine the cause of Justus' death, and given our meeting earlier today, they likely saw an opportunity to drag your family into the mess." Gras's expression darkened, knowing that Felix wasn't wrong. After all, doctors could also be poisoners, and plenty of martial artists had fa

It was clear someone had said something to Justus. Otherwise, this situation wouldn't have escalated to this point.Felix said calmly, "It was a standard therapeutic massage technique, and I was blindfolded the entire time. Does that explanation satisfy you? Or would you rather find someone else capable of treating Ms. Longstone—I'll gladly step aside if you can."Justus sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. "Cut the crap, Felix. Don't act like I don't know exactly what's going through your head. Ginny's the heiress of the Longstone residence—Gras's precious jewel. Everyone knows that marrying her is like securing the entire household. Don't tell me that thought never crossed your mind.""It didn't," Felix said simply.Unfortunately, that answer was never going to satisfy Justus. He snarled, "Listen up, boy! I'm giving you three days to get the hell out of the Longstone residence. If you don't, you won't even get the chance to regret it. Everyone else might be afraid of Gras—but I

As Wagner watched Justus explode in rage, he felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction. With what he'd just uncovered, there was no need to exaggerate—it was already explosive enough on its own.After all, Justus' future fiancée was touched in that kind of intimate way by a young, healthy doctor. Any man with a spine would lose it."But Justus," Wagner added with a smirk. "Didn't Felix just get publicly praised by the Green King?"Cloud City wasn't that big. Anyone with any influence had been keeping close tabs on Green King Manor—especially with the mystery man who walked out of Desolated Lands involved. So, the news of Felix being rewarded had already spread far and wide.Justus clenched his jaw. "So what? It's just a flash in the pan. If he was truly skilled, the Green King would've kept him. But as long as he hasn't climbed into the Green King's inner circle, I can crush him whenever I want."Wagner's grin widened. That was exactly the attitude he needed. If Justus had shown

The moment the Flame Monarch mentioned the Healer Sage, the Green King's expression shifted noticeably. "So the Sage really was living out there in seclusion... No wonder. Flame Monarch, does this mean you've taken a liking to Felix?"But the Flame Monarch waved his hand dismissively. "There's no need for that."That response made the Green King secretly rejoice. If the Flame Monarch didn't intend to recruit Felix, then he understood why—and that was perfect. It meant the opportunity to take Felix under his own wing was wide open.The night passed quietly. Felix stood beside Christopher's bedside, noticing the man's breathing had grown steady and stable.At this point, the herb had run its course and was no longer effective. But what was left inside Christopher's soul—a strange, lingering force—was exactly what Felix had hoped for.Christopher was alive but completely unconscious. The remaining energy had no regenerative properties, which meant he'd likely never wake again. For Fe

Felix wasn't the least bit surprised by the Flame Monarch's reaction, but he still feigned confusion. "Flame Monarch, I'm sorry... but I don't understand. What do you mean by soul-related injuries?"Just from that single line, Felix confirmed what he suspected—Aquamarinus had no concept of soul-based matters. Whether it was training methods or anything else, this realm hadn't yet touched that domain.The Flame Monarch stared at him, pressure radiating from his body. Felix immediately felt his limbs start to tremble under the invisible weight."You don't know? Then how could you claim to treat that man's condition?" Felix calmly pointed toward the herbs laid out on the table. "The force inside him is definitely strange. It triggered a memory... I once sensed something very similar, and it came from within that herb. It was purely instinct—when something feels familiar, there's a chance it might work."The Flame Monarch shifted his gaze to the herb, then said flatly, "Start from th

Felix gave him a direct and honest answer. "As long as I have enough herbs. I can treat him. I won't promise a full recovery, but one thing I can guarantee you is that this man won't die."For now, that was the best possible answer anyone could offer.The Flame Monarch replied, "Good. Begin. As long as you can keep him alive, you'll be handsomely rewarded."It seemed the Flame Monarch already knew something and never truly expected anyone to completely cure Christopher. Preserving his life alone would already be a feat."Flame Monarch, please reconsider!" one of the elderly doctors suddenly cut in, seething with resentment. "This boy is barely grown—how could he possibly possess such remarkable skill in medicine?"The Flame Monarch turned and gave him a cold, mocking glance. "If he can't do it, then can you?"The old man went silent. Perhaps fearing the loss of favor or acting out of sheer pride, he hesitated. Eventually, he found the courage to speak again."I admit I can't, bu
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1529
The Green King's expression changed instantly, and he turned to Felix in a hurry. "Dr. Zeller, please come with me to greet him.""Of course," Felix replied.For anyone in Aquamarinus, getting the chance to see the Flame Monarch up close was like a once-in-a-lifetime dream, and people would probably die happy just for that. Naturally, Felix put on a show of reverence as well, even if he didn't feel it deep down.As they reached the front gate, Felix saw several figures striding toward them with heavy steps. At the front of the group was a towering man, nearly nine feet tall. Even someone as built as Dave looked like a delicate bystander next to him.What stood out the most was his bright crimson hair, which flared upward like flames, making it look like his head was on fire. His facial features were fairly average, but the power behind his gaze radiated pure, undeniable authority.So, this was the Flame Monarch?Felix studied him closely. He suspected the man had cultivated some

According to the rules set by the Flame Monarch, the position of Minor Kings rotated every five years. Those who made outstanding contributions could keep their titles, but anyone who fell short would have to fight for their place all over again.The Green King knew he wasn't particularly strong—he was painfully aware of that. And with the next year marking the fifth year, the pressure was mounting fast. So when Christopher appeared, it felt like fate. If he could heal this man before the Flame Monarch arrived with his elite doctors, the credit would be immense, and his reappointment would be virtually guaranteed. Anyone who had never held a Minor King title wouldn't understand just how many perks came with it. If they did, no one would give it up willingly."I can treat him," Felix said calmly. "But I can't promise a full recovery."The Green King smiled. "Do your best. Even if you can only keep him alive, that alone is worth it."Two doctors before had said that Christopher's b
