Glaring at Felix, Wesley scolded, "Quiet, boy! It would be one thing if we hadn't known about this. But now that we do, we absolutely cannot allow such a despicable thing to happen! How is this any different from executing a scientist after they create a groundbreaking invention?" Just as he finished, another voice rang out. "Wow! Bravo!" Two more figures appeared, which made the members of Crimson Sage Sect ogle in shock. These newcomers were true big shots. They were the third and fourth best master healers in Dragonia, Brandon and Seth. It was Brandon who had spoken, and from his tone, he seemed to have been watching for a while. Even Cecil's heart began racing. "Cecil, we once wandered the martial world together as brothers. I wanted to show you some respect and to see if there was still room for redemption. But it seems you and your entire sect are more shameless than I expected," Brandon said.Their arrival made Jaden back several steps away. He knew everything was about

Everyone had left, but the members of Crimson Sage Sect remained rooted to the spot. Felix's final words echoed in their minds like thunder even after a long time. "Mr. Black, could he use these master healers' connections against our sect?" Jaden was the most devastated of all. Felix had not moved a muscle throughout the ordeal, yet Jaden had been forced to release him. It was a thousand times more humiliating than being defeated in combat. Cecil looked at him with disappointment in his eyes. "I've always told you to be vigilant and consider every angle. If you had properly investigated Felix's actual background, would our sect be in such an embarrassing position now?" After this incident, Crimson Sage Sect would definitely be blacklisted by those master healers in Dragonia. Not only that, Cecil had to use up Silas' favor. He had really lost big time. Jaden hung his head low, not daring to speak. He had miscalculated this time. Though his fellow apprentices did not dare say

Without his martial powers to sustain him, Felix suddenly felt exhausted from being up all night. He collapsed into bed as soon as he reached his bedroom and slept until noon. He drove to Yardley Dining for a quick lunch, then immediately began working on cultivating the Dragonspine. On the way, he called Jack, who was relieved to hear he was safe. They arranged to meet for dinner tomorrow. Felix also hoped to use this chance to contact Yvonne. After another four-hour session, Felix emerged from the pit. "Vivian, thank you for putting up with all this over the past month." Vivian felt helpless. "Don't mention it, Felix. It's my duty." She had never met someone of such high status who remained so humble. It made her feel embarrassed. Felix sighed. "My body's so much weaker than before." Whether from cultivating the Dragonspine or something else, Felix found himself hungry again. Not wanting to eat at Yardley again, he found a small pizza place and devoured three pizzas befor

Luis was furious. As a major player in Canraville's underground circles, he had never been so blatantly disrespected by such an unimportant figure. "Listen up, Viper! You're just Pierce's lackeys, and lackeys get abandoned. You better think about what'll happen to you then!" Luis exclaimed.He was livid. Larry had repeatedly emphasized Felix's status to Luis. Their future would be set if they could get in his good graces. Yet here he was, getting publicly humiliated over something so trivial, and right to his face. "Don't worry about me, Mr. Luis. I'm not worth much. When someone offers me good money, I've got to grab my chance, right?" Viper mused, "I'm Pierce's man now, and you're just nothing. So what if I'm just a lackey? You still have to show some respect to my master before doing anything to me." Felix raised his hand, signaling Luis to stay quiet. He looked at Viper. "So, to get my own car back, I need to pay 500 thousand dollars again?" Viper smirked. "You catch on

If Robert had known he would be helping Pierce against Felix, he would not have come for anything. Pierce was dumbfounded. He could not believe Felix could make Robert leave so obediently. Robert came from a prestigious background too. While not as wealthy as his father, he had other significant influence. How was this possible? "Break both his legs. Tell Andrei to come collect him," Felix ordered."Yes!" Luis was deeply impressed. Hearing about something was one thing, but witnessing Felix make Pierce's backup retreat with just a word was truly eye-opening. …At sunset, Andrei listened to the report with furrowed brows in the Hawkins residence. "So, Robert just left? That hot-headed kid is usually so impulsive. Why would he leave like that?" His subordinate shook his head. "Not sure. From what we saw, Robert seemed terrified of Felix. He left without a peep." Andrei fell silent and went deep in thought. His subordinate prompted, "Mr. Hawkins Senior, what about Mr. Pierce?

Theodore was even more shocked than Felix. He could immediately recognize from their uniforms that everyone in the warehouse belonged to Earthern Hall. "Interesting. Seems like Andrei sent quite a remarkable person," Felix said, his voice snapping Theodore out of his shock.Theodore took a deep breath and stepped forward. "Indeed, you're not an ordinary guy. You're even able to command members of Dragon Alliance." Since Theodore recognized them, things might turn out easier than expected. "In that case, tell me why Andrei's causing me trouble. Make it quick." Theodore shook his head. "I don't know the details. My only task is to take Pierce back." Felix smiled. "Since you know they're all members of Earthern Hall, do you actually think you can take Pierce?" Theodore continued forward with a calm expression. "I planned to kill you too at first. Now I'm just taking Pierce. Also, these people are no match for me." Felix frowned. This man did not seem to be bluffing. "Well,

"What's this Sacred Martial Order thing?" Felix asked.Theodore's expression turned strange. Was Felix really that extraordinary? How could he not know about the Sacred Martial Order? "Felix, the Sacred Martial Order comes from Martial Alliance! Only families or sects who are part of the Martial Alliance Council can possess one." Felix frowned. He had only heard of Martial Alliance once, and it was during Jaden's phone call. "What exactly is Martial Alliance?" "Martial Alliance is an organization recognized by the state. It's jointly established by top martial arts sects and ancient martial families to govern all practitioners in Dragonia. Going against Martial Alliance would mean opposing every martial artist in Dragonia," Vivian explained.That was quite the authority. To say such an organization was filled with martial arts masters would be no exaggeration. Felix had more questions but knew this was not the time. He turned to Theodore instead. "Call Andrei. I have one ques

Yvonne was getting married? Felix was stunned to hear this news. This was completely unexpected and seemed impossible. "Are you sure?" Clearly, George was just as confused. "You had no idea? If that's the case, I think I know what's happening now, Felix! You and Yvonne got together without Lady Nala's permission, right?" Felix's expression darkened. For a moment, he did not know what to say. "Forget I mentioned it." From what George knew about Nala, he knew who controlled Yvonne's fate. Being married off was nothing; it would not even be surprising if she lost her life. "When is she getting married? To whom?" Felix asked.After hesitating, George replied, "She'll be married in about 20 days to a young heir of the Walsh family from Aleshire. They control most of Dragonia's shipping business. Whatever Lady Nala's planning, it must involve significant interests or she wouldn't marry off Yvonne. "Everyone knows Yvonne's practically her personal assistant and is almost like her

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

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
