"Let's go," Felix said. Since his plan failed, he would have to think of something else.After returning to his villa and just finishing a bath, the doorbell rang. Seeing it was Yvonne, Felix was tempted to pretend he hadn't heard it. Alas, his lights were still on. When Yvonne entered, Felix greeted her with a smile. "How are you settling in Canraville?"Yvonne was wearing a yoga outfit that accentuated her figure. She said, "While I was practicing, I threw a punch and suddenly felt a dull ache in my chest. Can you take a look?"Felix didn't call out the oddity of wearing yoga clothes while practicing martial arts. Instead, he stretched out his hand. "Let me check your pulse."Though he could tell from her condition that nothing was wrong, he still needed to give a thorough check since she had asked."You're fine. It's probably just a bit of air trapped in you," Felix said.Yvonne shook her head. "No, I still feel discomfort. Please check more carefully."Without warning, she

As Nala's words fell, she reached up to pull off her veil, but she suddenly found that her hands refused to obey her will."Leave," Felix said flatly.Nala's gaze remained fixed on him. "Why? Aren't you even a little curious about me? They say even heroes can't resist beauty's charm. Are you afraid that once you see my face, you won't be able to stop thinking about me?"Felix responded with a slight, dismissive smirk. "Feelings come from the heart. What does appearance have to do with it? Besides, are you really Nala Hughman?"The question made Nala freeze momentarily. Before she could recover, Felix's voice rang out again."Go back and tell that self-righteous woman that even if she were to come here herself, I wouldn't be the least bit interested in what lies beneath her veil."With a wave of his hand, the door opened, and Nala found herself stepping backward out of the courtyard. Once outside, her body regained movement. Without a word, she turned and left.At Yvonne's villa,

Jack was so startled he nearly wet himself when he realized Vanessa was standing right behind him. He scrambled to explain, his voice full of nervous laughter."Nessa, honey, I was just joking with Felix! Come on, everything here—inside and out—runs by your word. You know that, right?"But Vanessa wasn't one to let things slide easily. She crossed her arms, a sly smirk on her face."Whatever. I heard it all. You can explain all you want, but as punishment, don't expect me to wear black stockings or sleep with you for the next week!"Her tone was playful but firm, and before Jack could respond, she turned her attention to Felix, her expression brightening."Felix! What a coincidence running into you here! Cici and I were just having a few drinks and chatting, and here you are!"Without waiting for Felix's agreement, Vanessa waved enthusiastically. "Cici, come on! Let's share a table."Felix sighed inwardly. While it seemed like Jack genuinely hadn't planned this meeting, Felix wa

Felix's lips curved into a subtle smile, though his words carried a polite tone. "Xena, I wasn't trying to dodge, really. It's just that—""Come if you want! I don't care!"The call ended abruptly with a sharp click. Felix rubbed his nose, chuckling at her short temper. Her promotion clearly came with a proportional rise in her fiery attitude.Of course, he was going to go. But since this was Xena's domain, he figured he might as well use the opportunity to make her owe him a favor. If she could soften her stance and influence Curtis, things would undoubtedly take a smoother turn.When Feliz arrived at the Wolfie troops' base, Alistair was already waiting at the entrance."Where's the wanted criminal?" Felix asked."In the infirmary," Alistair replied, hesitating slightly.Felix raised an eyebrow. "Out with it. What's the issue?""Well… someone's already treating him."Felix tilted his head, intrigued. "Didn't you say your doctor couldn't handle the situation? What happened? D

Ethan was furious. "You're questioning my medical skills? Who are you? What qualifications do you have? Phoenix Warlord, I need an explanation!"To his surprise, Xena simply responded, "He does have the qualifications, so I suggest you answer his questions, Dr. Calhorn."Ethan, taken aback, couldn't believe what he was hearing. Was someone around his age speaking with such authority?"Fine! But if you can't give me a satisfactory explanation today, I'll report this to the headquarters and demand they settle this! I, Ethan Calhorn, come from Medic's Haven, and my visit here is part of our agreement with headquarters—to provide medical aid during emergencies. "Do you think I'd willingly be here otherwise?"Felix remained calm, pointing with his hand. "You used the Hexa-Point Needle Method, didn't you?"Ethan's expression changed immediately upon hearing this."The Hexa-Point Needle Method, as the name suggests, involved six needles. You only used five. Sure, they might not notice

Once inside the office, Xena appeared slightly apologetic."Sorry for dragging you into this and getting you threatened. But don't worry—Ethan is definitely in trouble. Regardless of his motives, he won't be getting out for at least ten years."Felix dropped into a chair with a casual smile. "Why the formality between us?"Xena rolled her eyes at him but couldn't deny the lingering fear in her heart. If she hadn't personally made that call to Felix, Ethan might have walked away scot-free, and a month later, when the criminal died, the blame would have fallen squarely on her shoulders.As someone newly appointed, the last thing she needed was a disaster of this magnitude."Well, since I saved the day, how do you plan to thank me?" Felix asked.Xena thought for a moment before replying seriously, "I know you've been working hard to clear your name and even went to see my grandfather. But you have to understand, he was directly involved in that incident. With his age and experience,

"Felix! Something's happened to Nessa!" yelled Jack."What happened?" Felix asked immediately."I don't know!" replied Jack anxiously. "She sent me a message asking me to look for you, mentioning something about Martial Alliance visiting her home to stir up trouble. She didn't pick up when I tried to call her."Martial Alliance? Felix abruptly recalled that Vanessa was a martial artist, so her family definitely had connections to the world of martial arts as well—except they shouldn't have been that intricately involved, so how had they gotten entangled with the Martial Alliance?"You can stop concerning yourself with this matter," he told Jack. "I'll handle it!"He had to get to the scene in person. It would be best if he could solve it by himself and only pull out his trump card—Dragon Alliance—if things didn't work out.Even if outsiders may be clueless, he couldn't be more aware of Dragon Alliance's current situation. They were like a sheep donning a wolf's pelt right now, re

When Brock saw that Vanessa was about to be carted off by the Martial Alliance members, he moved to block their path. He was like a lion who had woken from its slumber, his submissive attitude vanishing and replaced with an imposing demeanor."Let go of her!" he barked.Amaya sneered disdainfully at him. "What, are you going to get physical with us? You'd better think things through, Mr. Meyer. Once you make a move against us, your entire family will be implicated."She patted Vanessa's face. "If you follow along obediently, I can plead your case with Mr. Tate later in order to allow your family a grace period of one year. How's that for a deal?"Angry, Vanessa asked in a low voice, "Will you keep your word?""Of course!" Amary replied.Vanessa immediately turned to look at Brock."Please make way, Dad," she said, attempting to reason with him. "Our family can't afford the consequences of acting against Martial Alliance! After I'm gone, get Jack to contact Felix Zeller. He'll be

Felix had no other choice. Whether he would succumb to darkness or not was a problem for later. Since his Ethereal Constitution was still incomplete, he could only unleash Lumen in an attempt to kill Kevin.His strength was beyond anything Felix had anticipated.Just when he thought it was about to be over, Kevin suddenly stood still. A crimson glow flickered around him, then condensed into a shield the size of a plate. It perfectly intercepted Lumen just inches from his forehead."What?" Felix was utterly shocked. This was the first time anyone had ever blocked Lumen. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought it was a dream.Kevin sneered. "Aren't you the miracle doctor's mentee? Do you really think that once a martial artist reaches a certain level, they wouldn't have some understanding of the soul? If I wasn't fully prepared, do you think I would have revealed myself to kill you?"Kevin had a soul-defense weapon similar to the Infinite Shield. Felix found i

What Kevin said next left Felix utterly shocked."Forget Eloise. If the miracle doctor were to release the seals on all nine of your fellow apprentices, I wouldn't stand a chance against a single one of them."Seals on all nine of his fellow apprentices? What did that mean?No matter how much Felix tried to goad Kevin for more information, he wouldn't say another word. He had no choice but to dismiss it as nonsense.After another ten minutes, Kevin suddenly unleashed a devastating strike, which sent Felix flying backward. However, by doing so, Kevin left himself exposed. For the first time, Felix landed a clean hit on him."Felix, now you'll witness the moment I've been waiting for all these years. Without this full-power battle between us, I never would've reached this point!"With that, Kevin pulled out an object. As his upper garments shredded apart, he pressed it against his chest.Felix grew anxious as he had seen that object before. It was the same bone that had flown away

The moment a disheveled old man appeared, Felix knew that it was no coincidence. The old man had come looking for him on purpose. However, the real question was why he dared to do that."I believe this is our first meeting, right, Kevin?"Kevin grinned. "Yes."Felix rolled his neck. After all, he anticipated this fight a lot. During his fight against Cordelia, he felt the need to hold back. However, he didn't have to do that this time. After all, Kevin was one of the best fighters. There was no doubt about that."Did you come to avenge your mentee Aiden?" Felix asked.To his surprise, Kevin shook his head. "No. On the contrary, I should be thanking you for killing Aiden. I believe in fate, and I never try to manipulate it. "When the three Celestial Royals joined forces against you at the foot of Trirock Mountain, I was certain you would die. However, fate took a turn."Felix frowned, struggling to make sense of why he would want to thank him."So many things I thought were des

"What is this thing?" Westley asked."This thing created all the mist in Misty Ridge," Felix replied.He didn't bother explaining the origins of the Infinite Shield in detail. Instead, he simply raised his right hand and touched it.In an instant, the Infinite Shield transformed into a streak of green light and disappeared into his body.As he felt the shield merge with his soul, a lingering sense of unease crept over him as he recalled Ophelia's warning.When dealing with the Three Forbidden Lands, the order of entry was crucial. If done incorrectly, the consequences would be disastrous.He had entered Echo Cavern first by pure luck. Back then, he had been ambushed by Dean and the Grand Elder. Both of them had mastered Transcendent Realm. Hence, Felix hadn't had the luxury of choice. Just surviving had been enough for him.It was only thanks to Ophelia's guidance that he had avoided stepping into Misty Ridge back then. Otherwise, who knew what would have happened?Even though

Felix was stunned. What were the odds? He had just run into one of Nerissa's family members. On top of that, he was a highly respected elder. "Hello, sir."Since he wasn't officially engaged with Nerissa yet, Felix wasn't sure how to address him. Hence, he simply nodded at him in greeting and handed him a few pills hurriedly.Westley was dumbfounded as Felix offered both fasting pills and ones for recovery. As the fifth elder of the Xavier family who mastered Transcendent Realm, he was experienced enough to know that these pills weren't something just anyone could casually offer. "Thank you very much."Half an hour later, Westley had finished regulating his condition. Although he hadn't fully recovered, he could move freely again."What's your name, young man? I owe you a huge favor. Once we get out of here, I'll repay you."The sincere gleam of his eyes revealed that Westley was a man who never left a debt unpaid. It made sense. After all, how else could he have raised Neriss

"The reason that creature suddenly lashed out so violently was because of the formation covering Martial City," Xena explained. "Based on my observations, this formation prevents Malevolent Phantoms from entering. That old man only got in because someone deliberately used a token to bring him inside. Even though he made it through, the formation still affected him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have killed so openly like you described."Malevolent Phantoms were already difficult to deal with, and intelligent Malevolent Phantoms were even worse. But that raised a bigger question. How were they created?"Since you've already taken care of it, I can at least report that much," Xena continued. "Felix, I really hope you can finish your mission soon. The capital desperately needs the warriors of Martial City to step in."With that, the call ended. Felix hadn't gained much new information, so all he could do was continue following his plan.After arriving at Misty Ridge, Felix immediately sens
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1089
For martial artists who reached the Transcendent Realm, the first three years were crucial for growth. After that period, their strength would be practically set. Hence, that phase determined the gap between those at the same level.Cordelia, for example, had attained her current level of power three years after reaching the Transcendent Realm. Given how things are unfolding, Felix only needed six months after activating Lone Paragon to reach his current strength. It was highly likely that he could reach her level as well.However, before he could dwell on these thoughts, a phone call from Xena completely disrupted his focus.To be honest, Felix was caught off guard. This was a phone exclusively used in Martial City. If Xena hadn't saved her number on his phone before he entered Martial City and mentioned that she might contact him one day, he would have never believed it."You entered Martial City?" Felix asked, puzzled. Xena wasn't someone who could just waltz into Martial City f

"This guy's cultivation technique is just a little strange, nothing special," Laura said.After relaying Felix's telepathy message, she stepped back. Her words had the intended effect. Everyone let out a sigh of relief. If more of those kinds of monsters started appearing, who could possibly stand against them?Though the situation had finally settled down, Felix wasn't the least bit happy. While his own troubles had just ended, the ordeal was completely unexpected. Logically, he still believed in the Phaeron Codex. After all, he had been practicing it himself and understood its power. If what was written in it was true, then there was no way for any of the wraiths to leave Corpse Town. So how did that old man get out?He decided not to dwell on it for now, as he had his own path to walk first.A few days later, in Imperial City, the Emperor and his sons sat in gloomy silence, staring at the three Celestial Royals standing at the forefront."You all saw what happened at the foot
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1087
"Make way!""Mr. Zeller is here!""Yeah, step aside!"The open space where Felix had previously confronted the three Celestial Royals remained empty. However, panic filled the air. Two bodies lay motionless on the ground. Although there were no visible wounds, the bodies were utterly still."Mom! What happened?"Cordelia pointed toward the only man still standing in the middle of the clearing. His lower body had been blasted apart. However, fresh flesh was already regenerating at an eerily incredible speed. At this rate, he'd be fully healed in less than five seconds."We're not sure. He suddenly attacked the two people lying on the ground. No one saw exactly how it happened, and then it turned into this mess."From what Cordelia explained, the man had erupted in violence without warning. The relatives of the deceased had immediately retaliated, unleashing a furious assault. They managed to destroy most of his body. However, he wouldn't die. His flesh kept regrowing, which was a
