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

"M-My name is Xerxes Tate, Mr. Zeller," Xerxes said humbly. "I've been wanting to apologize to you in person for being so blind before. Don't worry. I'll definitely follow the rules to the letter when driving from now on."Seeing as his attitude was decent, Felix loosened his grip on Xerxes' shirt."What's going on over here, then?" he asked. "Are you trying to take my friend away?"Swallowing, Xerxes ordered Amary to come over to them, then explained, "I was just sleeping in the car, so I don't know a thing about what's going on. But don't worry, Mr. Zeller, because I'll definitely get to the bottom of this."As soon as the words left his mouth, he slapped Amary twice without showing the slightest sign of holding back."Who gave you the bright idea of taking away Mr. Zeller's friend?" he demanded. "Are you courting death?"At this point, Amary had realized that Felix's identity must be extremely terrifying, because why else would Xerxes behave in this way? That said, she had no

"Who's this fellow?" Dalton asked. He was confused at the sight of Felix. After careful thought, he realized that he had never seen him before."Dad, he's Felix Zeller," Brock answered. "Just now, the people from Martial Alliance—"Before he had even finished speaking, Dalton's expression darkened."Martial Alliance came again?" he asked in distaste. "Do they really think us Meyers are pushovers? Why didn't you call me?"Brock smiled wryly. "Why else, other than that we were afraid you'd worry?"What would they achieve by calling Dalton anyway? They had already exhausted their connections. Who would dare help them once they heard that the Meyers had offended Xerxes' personal subordinate?"Although this may sound shameless, when Curtis arrives later, I'm going to ask him for a favor even if I have to beg for it. The situation with Martial Alliance is ridiculous!"Xena was the Phoenix Warlord. Handling a minor issue like this would be child's play to her."The matter's already be

Curtis frowned, asking, "He's the person you were talking about?""That's right," replied Dalton.Sometimes, situations arose in which one needed to exercise discretion.Felix spoke up at that moment. "Mr. Meyer Senior, Mr. Summers Senior, I'm expecting a guest back home. I'm afraid that it's not an appointment I can reschedule, so I'll take my leave first."After Dalton had escorted Felix out, Curtis started questioning him again."Are you sure he was the one who helped your family and that he didn't ask for any reward?"Whatever the two old men discussed regarding the situation with Martial Alliance, it was no longer Felix's concern. He had already achieved the outcome he wanted—although he knew that Curtis wouldn't change his mind about him due to this incident alone, it was still a good start.…At that moment, there was an electric scooter lying on its side on a street in Canraville, and not far from the scooter lay an old man. There were many onlookers gathered around, an

As Felix's hand touched the piece, it felt like it was being sucked in. In an instant, the chess piece became as heavy as a mountain and was impossible to move. What was more terrifying was that Felix felt something inside him being drawn into the chess piece. It was his soul energy! The chess piece was actually absorbing his soul energy, which was something unheard of. Looking at Bonnie, she was caressing her pale neck, her expression one of extreme pleasure. She even let out moans. "So there is something wrong here. You're actually trying to absorb my soul energy! How dare you!" Felix activated the Phaeron Codex. All restraints instantly vanished as he placed the red piece where the red light glowed. "Huh?" Bonnie, who had expected to enjoy the sensation much longer, was stunned that Felix had broken free so quickly. Her reaction was delayed because of that, and she hurriedly placed her piece after regaining her composure. After that, Bonnie's expression soured. Felix w

The woman had big wavy curls and wore a white mini-skirt. She was beautiful, especially those large eyes that seemed designed to entice with every glance. Felix asked, "Do I know you?" She propped her legs up on the table without crossing them, just laying them flat. She was wearing a mini-skirt, and Felix was sitting directly across from her. From this angle, she was showing off everything possible, but she did not seem to care at all. "You can call me Bonnie Wildmare. I'm also one of the Ancient Sage's Eight Guardians." The Eight Guardians! Felix tensed up. He never would have guessed that a woman like this worked for the Ancient Sage. "Ashton insisted I tag along in case something unexpected happened. He was worried he couldn't handle you alone, and it turned out he was right—you had such a powerful fighter by your side. Hehe, Ashton's in for some trouble this time." Since she was one of the Eight Guardians and Ashton had called her, Felix was surprised but not afraid. "

That made sense. A Malevolent Phantom's body was not nearly as fragile as a normal human's. While Felix and Karina could make them explode with minimal effort, weaker martial artists would find it extremely challenging. "I finally get a chance to relax in the park, and this thing tries to kill me. Hmph! Talk about ruining my mood," Karina huffed.Felix was speechless. What was this Phantom thinking? Of all people to pick a fight with, it chose Karina? "What brings you to Kashmere, Karina?" he asked.Karina suddenly felt a flush on her face. She turned away and asked, "Since when do I need to report my whereabouts to you?" Felix knew better than to push the question. He quickly changed the subject and said, "Now that Phantoms have appeared, hasn't Mr. Hoffman asked you all to learn soul-reading techniques?" Among his nine fellow apprentices, only Naomi had trained in soul-related abilities. The others had not. "No. Mr. Hoffman made it clear long ago that we shouldn't learn oth

The flute's melody carried a murderous intent. This could only mean one thing—Karina was locked in battle with someone. This kind of flute sound was inaudible to ordinary people. Only those with significant power could hear it. Felix did not hesitate for a second. After a quick warning to Laura, he bolted out the car door. In a nearby park dense with greenery, Felix had barely arrived when he heard a voice. "Who's there?" Felix could only laugh. Despite being a Grandmaster with his essence concealed to perfection, Karina had still detected him. "It's me, Karina." Karina stood there holding her flute, clearly surprised. "Felix? What are you doing here?" Before he could answer, Felix looked toward a spot where a man's head was swinging back and forth, laughing with a sinister edge. "Hehehe, you think you can kill me like that? Keep dreaming!" As the head spoke, a body grew beneath it, taking the form of a full-grown man. Without a word, Karina played her flute again. The

Based on the essence fluctuations, they were probably an Aetherial Realm martial artist. The fact that they could kill a C-tier Malevolent Phantom shows they'd made real progress with soul techniques. "What a waste of talent, throwing themselves away like this," Felix muttered.Felix had a bad feeling. Was this a test run, or did they actually think this creature could take down a Grandmaster like him?He pulled out his phone and called Xena. "Did Elliott's experimental data get leaked?"Xena's response was firm. "Impossible! That data is extremely valuable, and the headquarters considers it top secret. It's classified beyond even us warlords' clearance, so there's no way it leaked."If it hadn't leaked, what was going on? The helmet, the C-tier Malevolent Phantom—everything pointed to Westorio Order's research. Had some other accident happened without their knowledge?"I'm sending you an address. Get people here as soon as you can to clean up and identify the bodies.""On it."

There was a woman standing in front of the car despite the downpour. What gave Laura the creeps was the woman's bright red dress and matching red umbrella. Her face wore a smile that spread an eerie atmosphere around her."Should we go around her, Felix?"The rain was coming down so hard that no other cars were visible on this stretch of road. Laura figured the woman might have some mental issues."I'll go check it out."Upon hearing this, Laura considered another possibility. "Could it be a Malevolent Phantom?"If so, Laura needed to stay alert. This would be her first encounter with one. Even if she wasn't qualified to fight, she could at least observe carefully."Not sure." Felix thought there could only be two explanations for the current situation. Either this woman was mentally disturbed, or she was indeed a Malevolent Phantom. The heavy rain and lack of surveillance cameras made this an ideal spot for murder, though the location was somewhat unexpected. As Felix steppe

Barry asked, "So Felix, have you faced those Malevolent Phantoms yet?" Felix nodded. "Yeah. They're not as scary as you might think. The first time is rough, but it gets easier. That said, the powerful ones are really terrifying." Upon hearing these words from someone like Felix, Barry felt a chill. After all, Felix's power was already off the charts in everyone's eyes. Good times always flew by, and the days of rest vanished in a blink. At ten in the morning, Felix stood at Newtown's airport. "Stop acting like we're saying our final goodbyes. You two are something else." Cordelia wiped away tears, giving Deborah the same reproachful look. "You can't imagine how much a mother would shed tears for her son. I'm just making up for lost time." Deborah was speechless, though secretly excited. After years of hard work, she could finally relax without worry. "Hey, what a coincidence! Are you guys heading out too? Where?" Bern and his daughter Natalie appeared suddenly, and Ber

"We do!" The crowd roared in unison. Felix's actions today proved they had not made a mistake following him to the capital. Nothing about this felt staged, and they weren't foolish enough to miss that. As the crowd dispersed, Felix remained troubled. He had been blind to something obvious all along—people can be real pieces of work when given the chance. If this situation had continued, wouldn't people have lost faith? Everyone understood that voluntary cooperation would beat forced compliance any day. At least he had stepped in. He had sent a clear message by bringing down the hammer without even sparing the Protector's feelings. Nobody would dare try the same tricks again; making an example of one person was always the most effective way. "Alistair, you all knew about this already, didn't you?" From Alistair's arrival to the prepared evidence against Laurent, Felix could easily connect the dots. "Yes, Lady Summers arranged everything. You know that when the Protector is

"Felix, this young man is a descendant of an old friend of mine. He's been spoiled rotten and doesn't know when to shut up. Please don't take him seriously." Felix watched Laurent, who still looked defiant despite being slapped. Now he understood the arrogance—this man had connections to the Protector. "Let me ask you, sir. What's more important—your feelings for an old friend, or the fate of our nation? I don't understand why such an important place as Newtown would be handed to this triple-threat of incompetence. "He has weak powers, zero emotional intelligence, and not a brain cell to spare. Have you turned foolish too?" Already fuming, Laurent roared, "Felix Zeller! How dare you lecture the Protector himself? This is treason! Arrest him now!" Laurent's men just looked at each other awkwardly. Arrest him? With what, their mouths? Come on, everyone knew how powerful Felix was. Did this idiot even have a functioning brain? The Protector did not seem angry at all. He just l
