Surprised by Gerald's question, Felix laughed. "What's there to regret now? At that moment, there wasn't time to think about anything else. My mind was focused on one thing only." Gerald chuckled. "Now that's my disciple! We have our principles. We act when needed, but we don't spend all day playing savior. "Remember what I told you about the Dragons Destroyer technique?" Felix had memorized every word from Gerald as his mentor. "You said Dragons Destroyer is Dragonia's oldest and most unique martial art technique. Legend says only one person ever mastered it, and I would be next. Its uniqueness is beyond description." Gerald responded casually, "Good, you remember. Now, forge your own path. No matter what happens to you, you'll always be my disciple. Nothing and no one can change that." Feeling touched, Felix recalled something. "Oh, Mr. Hoffman. I didn't want to trouble you, but someone from the Elders' Council showed up. In my current state, I'm worried about whether I can

"Interesting. Let's see what happens when I refine this Dragonspine!" Felix muttered.Outside, Vivian maintained her guard silently after Felix jumped and disappeared below. Four hours passed before Felix jumped back up. "Change of plans. We're staying," he instructed.Vivian did not dare question it. Besides, she wanted to spend more time with Felix anyway. After leaving Yardley Dining, Felix called Larry. "Mr. Laird, I apologize, but plans have changed. I'll need your backyard for a month." Without his internal energy, Felix could only refine the Dragonspine for four hours before exhaustion set in. At that rate, it would take about a month. "Mr. Zeller, please, you're too polite! I've moved the graves, and no one uses the backyard. Take a year if you need it." After witnessing Felix's status, Larry was not foolish enough to miss this opportunity to build connections with someone so influential. "Thanks. I appreciate it." Just after hanging up, Luis called again. "Mr. Ze

Xena maintained her composure. "It's not him. How could it be? You think someone in Felix's condition would be worthy of me?" She stood to leave. "I'm sorry, but I've worked too hard to get where I am. When the Warlord of the East gives advice, I have to take it." Xena could not admit Felix was the reason. The first time she met Jaden, he had tried to kill Felix. Before, there might have been obstacles, but now Felix was just an ordinary person without martial arts skills. For Jaden, killing him would be like crushing an ant. She could not assign 24/7 protection to him, could she? Besides, Jaden had nearly achieved the level of Martial Emperor. He could literally kill Felix with a flick of his finger. How could she guard against that? Left alone in the private room, Jaden's expression darkened as he clenched his fists. He felt that he was being toyed with, though Xena had never actually promised him anything. "This must have something to do with Felix. I won't let you live

What a joke. How dare a mere leader of a bunch of car thieves disrespect one of the underworld's major players? Viper forced a nervous smile. "Mr. Luis, I… I wouldn't dare normally. But these are my boss' rules. I'll be in trouble if I don't follow them." Boss? Luis had never heard of Viper having a boss. "Who's your boss? Tell them to come here and repeat that!" Almost immediately, footsteps approached. A young man appeared while casually smoking a cigar. "Sure thing, Mr. Luis. I'm Viper's boss. Any problems with my policies?" Luis' eyes narrowed in surprise. "Pierce Langden?" Felix noticed Luis' wariness and asked, "Do you know him?" Luis nodded, whispering, "Pierce is the illegitimate son of Andrei Hawkins, the richest man in Canraville." The richest man in Canraville? Felix understood now what was happening. "Stand down," Felix instructed.Luis wanted to protest but stayed quiet. Truth was, he could not afford to offend Andrei. Even with his brother's help, they we

"Felix, I'm meeting Nessa's parents soon. If everything goes smoothly, we'll be handing out wedding invitations," Jack revealed.At the bar, Jack was grinning ear to ear. He was not getting any younger. To him, success in life meant both career and family. With his career already set, marriage was the logical next step. "Am I right, Nessa?" Vanessa smiled and replied, "Don't worry. I get to choose whoever I want to marry. My parents can't tell me what to do." Though there would certainly be some resistance, she was being truthful. Besides, everything would surely work out once Felix had given her that book of martial arts techniques. "I'm going to use the bathroom," Felix said. Beer always had a way of sending people to the bathroom. After finishing up and washing his hands, Felix was rounding the corner when someone blocked his path. Felix stepped aside, but the guy matched his movements and kept blocking him. From his swaying body and the heavy stench of alcohol, it was cl

Jack was still uneasy after hanging up. Then Vanessa asked with a grave look, "Are you sure you heard right? Did they say Crimson Sage Sect?" "Yeah! What's wrong? Do you know about them?" Vanessa's eyes showed a mix of emotions. "Crimson Sage Sect is an extremely powerful organization. Felix is in serious trouble this time." What? Jack did not know much about these matters, but his girlfriend was a martial artist, so he had to trust her judgment. "Damn it, let's go! We can't just sit here doing nothing!" The only thing he could do now was contact everyone he knew or tried to find out if Felix had any powerful connections they could reach out to. "Wait, Felix's phone is still on the table. I'll grab it," Vanessa said.When Vanessa came back, Felix's phone suddenly rang. Looking at the screen, she remarked puzzlingly, "Xena? Isn't that Dragonia's goddess of war? How does Felix know someone like that? No, it must be someone else with the same name." Jack did not care about th

Xena practically roared those words. Even Felix heard them clearly while sitting beside Jaden. He felt moved and surprised by how much she cared about him. Xena never ran from problems. Just as she had been firm in her previous stance, she was ready to face anything together now that she had decided to be with Felix. This only made Jaden angrier. The more she cared about Felix, the more it infuriated him. "Xena, do I need to remind you how your cousin Ted died and why your uncle Perry committed suicide? Have you forgotten all that? And now you're still protecting Felix, who's your enemy. I really don't understand what's going through your head." After Felix's warning last time, Xena investigated his claims and discovered that Ted had indeed tried to harm Felix a few times using vicious methods. He only failed because of Felix's strength. As for Perry, his overly indulgent parenting had led to all this. "Stop with the pointless talk. Are you releasing him or not?" Xena asked b

"Mr. Black, Ms. Morgan is here to see Jaden," a subordinate reported to Cecil.Zara? After seeing Cecil's nod, Jaden said, "Let her in."Her sudden visit at this hour gave Jaden an uneasy feeling. Zara greeted Cecil when she entered, "Mr. Black." Cecil said with a smile, "Zara, you must have urgent business at this hour. Go ahead, I won't leave." Hearing this, Zara turned to Jaden and got straight to the point, asking, "Jaden, would you please release Felix?" Jaden's expression darkened. Damn, was Felix some kind of celebrity? He had barely taken him, yet people already knew and were pleading for his release. "No way." A flash of disappointment crossed Zara's face as she continued, "You promised me you wouldn't clash with Felix again. Are you going to break your word to me too?" Shaking his head, Jaden replied seriously, "I'm not breaking my promise. This time, Felix killed one of our disciples from Crimson Sage Sect. As an elder of the sect, how could I stand and do nothin

The moment the topic came up, Felix's gaze flickered, avoiding direct eye contact. No matter how you put it, even though Xena would also benefit from it, it still felt somewhat unfair. It felt that way, especially since they weren't in a relationship. If they were married or at least dating, it wouldn't be an issue at all."I'm exhausted. I need another two days to rest," he said.Billy scoffed. "I know your soul energy is depleted, but trust me. Your fatigue will disappear instantly once your souls merge. The feeling is beyond words. I'm sure you've heard from the Malevolent Phantom how irresistible Soul Binding is, even for those who've already experienced love and passion."Wait, what? Felix was speechless. It seemed that there was really no way out of it."Oh, one last thing. After you and Xena… you know, your soul energy will be completely absorbed and stored away. That means you won't have any left to wield a soul-bound weapon or use any soul attacks. Are you sure you still

There was only one explanation—Felix really could heal soul damage."Of course, I healed him. Let me rest for a bit. Wake me up when the sun comes up."Felix was utterly exhausted. Even if an S-tier Malevolent Phantom appeared beside him, he couldn't be bothered to care. If Donna had truly wanted to kill him, she would have done it long ago. There was no reason for her to wait until now.As Donna watched Felix slip into a deep sleep almost instantly, her expression grew more complex.What kind of ridiculous joke was that? Even though Leonardo was a crossbreed, his soul had already inherited the traits of a Malevolent Phantom. While it wasn't exactly the same as a true Malevolent Phantom, the essence of his soul had changed.And yet, Felix had still managed to heal him. If word of this got out, it would shake the entire Malevolent Phantom world to its core.It was like finding out that some miracle doctor could cure any disease in the human world. People would go absolutely crazy.
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1361
Leonardo's body suddenly started convulsing, and with foam spilling from his mouth, even a fool could tell something had gone wrong.Damage to the soul was entirely different from physical injuries. If one got a cut, even without treatment, their body would eventually heal on its own. However, the soul wasn't like that. Any damage was permanent and had widespread consequences. Even if just a fraction of an inch of the soul was harmed, the physical reaction could be extreme.Felix let out a long breath. "Finally got it out. It sounds easy, but doing it was incredibly difficult. Even with my soul energy, I nearly couldn't hold on."The level of precision required to make such an impossibly fine cut was beyond imagination. To do it without causing any collateral damage would require soul energy beyond comprehension.Of course, Leonardo's soul had been damaged. There was no avoiding it."At least he's alive. You've done all you could," Donna said.However, Felix just smiled. "That'

At that moment, Felix turned to Norman. "Step outside and say the lines you've rehearsed. Then, I'll take your son with me. He'll be back by dawn."Norman was beyond relieved. If Leonardo could survive, nothing else mattered.He had long anticipated this day. Living on Earth, even if it wasn't intentional, he had killed more than one person. There was no way he'd be let off the hook.In the living room, Lina was in tears, bombarding him with questions, while Steve kept sighing heavily. No one could have imagined that a once-happy family would fall apart overnight."I'm taking Leonardo for treatment. I won't say it again."Seeing the scene unfold, Felix spoke up. With Norman's cooperation, things were going more smoothly. Since he had been assured that Leonardo would return safely, there was no reason for further resistance.The situation had to be handled strictly. There was no room for defiance.Just then, Xena arrived. She had actually been in Zuera since the day before but ha

Norman looked into Felix's eyes and knew there was no room for negotiation. He lowered his head in silence.Seeing this, Felix dialed Donna's number."What's up?" she asked."I found a crossbreed.""A crossbreed? Oh, you mean a hybrid? What about it?"Felix had no choice but to ask Donna for help. No matter how he looked at it, he also wanted to protect Leonardo."This crossbreed is only three years old and seems to have inherited a soul-related trait. He just killed someone out of pure instinct."Before Felix could finish, Donna had already guessed the situation. She let out a chuckle, her tone carrying a hint of eerie amusement. "Let me guess, you want to save the kid?"Felix didn't bother denying it. "That's right. I want to know if there's a way."After a long pause, Donna's voice came through again, "There is! But I can only assist. Since he's just three years old and hasn't developed much yet, I can mark the part of his soul that drives his instincts. "You'll need to

A trace of sweetness flickered in Norman's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile."Yeah, I never imagined it, either. Me, an A-tier Malevolent Phantom, actually falling in love with a human. I'm completely, hopelessly in love."Felix froze as he hadn't expected it to be true."You probably don't believe me. No other Malevolent Phantom would, either. But it's real. I truly love Lina. After experiencing what you humans call love, I was completely consumed by it. Maybe that's why, when we were together, our souls intertwined, and that's how Leonardo was born."Norman grew emotional as he spoke."Do you understand? When I realized that Leonardo had inherited the unique traits of a Malevolent Phantom's soul, I was overjoyed beyond words."But I regretted it instantly when I remembered where we were. Because it meant that if Norman was ever discovered, he would be in danger of being killed at any moment."And now, with your arrival today, I knew that moment had come. I just didn't expe

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
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1355
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
