Harry, who had been listening intently the entire time, suddenly burst out laughing. "Talk about asking for trouble! Felix, did you really think we hadn't looked into your background?"Sure, you used to have some influence, and plenty of big shots owed you favors, but what are you now? Just another ordinary doctor. Do you honestly believe everyone is like George, desperately hoping you'll make a comeback?"Maybe you had a shot at that before, but now? That chance is long gone. Besides, even if you did rise back up, do you think you could go against Ethan?"Ethan works for Malcolm, and Malcolm is my cousin. By messing with Ethan, you're disrespecting Malcolm. Simply put, you've picked a fight with someone you shouldn't have." George watched with a cold smirk, knowing everyone who had tried to destroy Felix felt this same confidence. Yet, they all regretted it the next moment."Oh? Someone I shouldn't mess with? Are they really that important?" Felix asked casually.Harry straight
Harry expected the other party to back down after making such bold threats, since no one would typically risk a conflict between two great martial families over an outsider. However, the young man responded by striking Harry to the ground with a single slap. When the men in black suits moved to intervene, the young man merely flexed his arms, and an invisible force sent them all flying backward. "You're just a distant relative of the Crayden family, yet you dare show off in front of us? If Malcolm came here to say these words, that would be a different story." He emphasized his point by stepping on Harry's face. "The name's Jeffrey Saphira, and you can tell the Craydens that Felix is a friend of the Saphira family. If anyone wants to mess with him, they'll have to deal with us first. Now get lost!" His commanding tone terrified Harry. Even Ethan, who had just gotten up, stood dumbfounded. They could not comprehend why someone like Felix had such strong backing from the Saphira
Felix took a sip of his beer before asking, "Do you really think this was a coincidence? If the Saphira family wanted to visit me, they could have done it anytime. Why specifically now?"Although he was unsure about Barack's background, Felix knew the situation was not as simple as it appeared. Seeing his expression, George decided not to pursue the topic further."Oh, by the way, Malcolm is a direct descendant of the Crayden family. He's also one of Lady Nala's suitors," George mentioned. "He's actually one of those powerful pursuers Mr. Gibson warned about earlier."The implication was clear—George wanted Felix to be careful. Felix merely nodded, as Nala's romantic affairs were not his concern.Nonetheless, he figured Malcolm would likely let the Ethan incident slide after the Saphira family's intervention. After all, it was simply not worth the trouble.An hour later, as they were leaving, the elevator stopped one floor down. Felix could not help but be shocked when he notice
Felix could swear he was not seeing things. Xena sat on his couch, with two glasses and a bottle of wine on the coffee table before her."Your life seems quite fun," Xena remarked, her initial smile instantly fading as her eyes fixed on Wendy in Felix's arms. Felix glanced down, finally realizing the gravity of the situation."Xena, I—" he started, but she cut him off, "No need to explain. I clearly came at a bad time. Don't worry. I'll use the front door next time."Felix inwardly cursed at this massive misunderstanding. He called out, "Xena, please let me explain! This is Wendy Kinsley—you must know who she is. She had too much to drink, and I don't know where she stays, so I—"However, his words trailed off as Xena had already vanished through the door.Looking at the wine bottle on the table, Felix felt incredibly frustrated. It was obvious Xena had found her own way into his villa to surprise him and probably have a heart-to-heart conversation.Instead of strengthening the
With Xena already being so forward, Felix saw no reason to hold back. He swept her up in his arms and rushed upstairs at lightning speed.…When Felix awoke the following day, he could hardly believe how easily things had progressed with Xena, especially without having to deal with Curtis. He quickly checked his body, but his face fell as he made a shocking discovery."How is this possible?" he muttered, noticing that Madam Spring's mark was still clearly visible.As a thought struck him, he turned to look at the woman beside him, who had just rolled over to face him. He gasped in shock, exclaiming, "Averill?"Lying next to him was not Xena at all, but Averill. At the sound of her name, Averill opened her eyes, blinking innocently."Oh, seems like the illusion spell wore off right on schedule," she said casually. Felix was speechless. With Averill's level of power, there was no way he could have detected her disguise.Averill sat up and playfully tilted Felix's chin toward h
Felix and Averill jumped at the sudden interruption, finding Wendy standing in the doorway. When her eyes met Felix's, Wendy realized how awkward the situation was."I'm so sorry!" she exclaimed before turning and fleeing. Felix realized he had been so caught up in the night's passion that he had forgotten to close the bedroom door. Nonetheless, he was not too concerned."She—" Felix began, but Averill pushed him back down. "Don't say another word about her right now. Let's continue!"...After their passionate encounter, Averill felt deeply satisfied. This time, she had been able to be with him as herself. She giggled and said, "Finally, I'm on equal footing with Leslie! I can't wait to tell her the good news!"Felix shook his head, feeling like a prize being fought over. "Come on, Averill. You didn't just randomly show up at my place, did you?"After all, Averill would surely be aware that he had recovered his strength. Hence, her sudden appearance surely meant there was
After finishing breakfast, Felix hesitated but decided to call Xena. His mind kept drifting back to last night and the madness with Averill—at least, at the time, he had genuinely thought it was Xena.Fortunately, the call connected, and Xena's cold voice immediately came through, "What is it?"Felix felt incredibly awkward, even though nothing had actually happened between them. "Xena, about last night—"Xena quickly cut him off, "I'm not dwelling on it. No need to explain yourself. Besides, there's nothing between us, so your private life is your own business."As expected, Felix thought women always seemed to get upset over the same kind of things. He said, "Alright. I'll drop it. I just hope this doesn't affect your mindset during the investigation."There was a long pause before Xena responded, saying, "Felix, thank you for getting headquarters to release me. That meant a lot to me."As for the investigation, I'm not worried. My assistance to Uncle Perry was completely legal
Felix chuckled. "Oh? I wasn't aware I had any secrets." The whole situation felt eerily familiar, as if someone had tried this approach with him before.Aimee sneered. "Laugh all you want. I know your birth parents are from the Greene family of Yatford. Is that enough to make you leave?"Felix's smile faded, not from fear but from curiosity about how Aimee had discovered this information. As far as he knew, only his senior apprentices and Nala were aware of this fact."If I reveal your identity to the Greene family... Well, let's just say they despise illegitimate children like you. The Greene family of Yatford is extremely powerful, and dealing with you would be child's play for them," Aimee threatened. "So think carefully. Would you rather leave quietly and continue your pleasant life, or face the crushing power of the Greene family?" Felix hung up without responding, completely unfazed by the matter. He recalled that Nala had tried using this secret against him before, but
"Fire Dragon!" Huge flames appeared above Felix out of nowhere. After a spin, the flames headed toward Oliver, who was in midair.The flames collided with the Cross Slayer mid-way. They diminished quickly. As both moves collided, Felix didn't dare to pause at all because the attacks of Luca, Charles, and the others had reached the point where he didn't have the chance to catch his breath."Dancing Dragon!" The Dancing Dragon was deployed again. It cut off the sudden attack. The movement was so smooth that it couldn't be compared to the previous one. When there was an empty spot, Oliver entered through the only ball of flame and hit Felix on the chest. Felix spat out a mouthful of blood and stumbled a few steps back."Help me put out the fire! He has already used all his strength. He is no longer a threat!"When Luca and the others were about to kill Felix when the latter was weak, they were summoned by Oliver.Felix stood in the same spot and didn't dare to move because his en
"Rising Dragon!" When Felix made a move, Luca's and Charles' expressions changed. The two took action simultaneously. With a loud boom, Felix was nowhere to be seen. It turned out it was a decoy."Can he escape?" Luca and Charles disappeared. Meanwhile, the other members of the Jacobs family had only reached Pulse Realm, so they couldn't participate in this battle. They could only wait in the same spot."Levi! Isn't Felix a bit too exaggerating?" Someone asked, but Levi couldn't answer him because he was still stunned.Charles and Luca were superb martial arts masters in the middle stage of the Blood Realm. It was already terrifying that Felix could escape with one move.One yard away, Felix stopped because three other people appeared before him. Their faces were all covered.Although they seemed unremarkable at first glance, their demeanor caused Felix to have a serious expression for the first time.The two were in the middle stage of Blood Realm, while the other had reached th
Actually, Felix was trained in Dragons Destroyer. There were five pieces of the Dragonspine in his body as well. He could fight against someone at a higher cultivation level than him with no issue.But he didn't dare to act recklessly in the current situation because Elders' Council was involved as well. He couldn't be certain that there wasn't anyone else from Elders' Council present aside from Luca.Elders' Council had suffered losses because of Felix. Once they had gotten a hold of the news, they would definitely kill him."Felix, you're so young, yet you're already so strong. You're indeed gifted, but being cunning and having good strategies only come with age. Do you think that we don't know you're stalling for time by talking nonsense?"Luca exuded his strong presence as he raised his right hand. "I only cooperated with you because I need the Jacobses to witness me killing you. Otherwise, you would have been dead long ago!"At this time, the people who rushed over from afar
When Charles spoke up, Felix had already secretly made a call to the phone Dahlia left behind. As for whether or not she could arrive in time, that depended on fate.It acted as a layer of security. Felix had the Speed Talisman given by Gerald. If he couldn't win, he could still escape. Even if he couldn't escape, at least he could buy some time."The Jacobs family? I've never heard of this family before."Looking at Felix, Charles snorted. "You're so young, yet you already have such great capability. You dare to do it, but you're afraid of admitting it? I have seriously overestimated you in the past! Do you dare to say that you didn't kill Mason, who's a genius in my family?"Everything was just to buy some time. Felix looked as though he had thought of something. "Mason? You're right. I killed him. I only killed him because he wanted to kill me. I can't possibly just tie my own hands and let him kill me, can I?"Felix didn't expect Charles to be so overbearing. "That's right!
"I've thought it through! If Abyssal Surge Sect were a decent sect, I wouldn't have had a dispute with you guys. If a patient found me, I wouldn't refuse to treat the patient, either. But for the things you've done, how are you any different from beasts? "You want me to respect you? Abyssal Surge Sect is nothing to me!"Hendrick never expected Felix to say such things. He immediately got up. "Alright, then. I'll let the sect know your attitude when I go back. I hope you can still be so stubborn when we meet next time."Abyssal Surge Sect trained Skybound Revenants and let them kill people once they were skilled. If Felix looked up to Abyssal Surge Sect, he could just die.He was currently under attack from all sides. If he weren't in this situation, he would have already annihilated Abyssal Surge Sect to remove the threat once and for all.…The wedding was carried out successfully. Felix drank quite a lot of alcohol as well. Soon, the wedding was coming to an end. After toastin
Felix's expression changed, but he still smiled and said, "It is a large sect. It's a good thing."Although he said that, he thought, "Fuck! They investigated this so quickly. Are they treating me as an enemy already?"To be honest, he felt as though he was taking the blame for someone else. From the beginning to the end, this matter had nothing to do with him."Why are you glaring at me?" Billy ran his finger through his buzz cut and opened the mirror. "Did I get more handsome?"Felix wanted to cry. Billy was the one who found the Skybound Revenant, so why did Abyssal Surge Sect shift the hatred to Felix?…Around 9:00 am, Felix brought Melissa to a hotel's banquet hall, where weddings in Canraville were held. George, Ryan, Madeline, Luke, Wendy, and the others had arrived. They were all people Felix knew."This is my sister, Melissa."Upon arriving there, Melissa acted quite shy. "Nice to meet everyone."Then, George and Ryan fought to give Melissa a seat."Melissa, sit her
Felix felt speechless. "I said, as long as you're willing to help, in addition to the agreed dojo, you'll also get a chance to dine with Dreamscape."After receiving confirmation, Billy patted his chest and said, "Humph! Don't insult me with these rewards. As a citizen, cooperating is my duty. Just leave it to me!""Damn it, Billy!" Felix thought, trying to suppress his irritation."Time to work my magic and track down that Skybound Revenant," Billy suddenly said. "Everyone, leave! Phoenix Warlord and Felix, you two stay."At Alistair's command, everyone quickly evacuated, leaving only the three of them in the open space.Felix waved his right hand, sending out a wave of energy to ensure there were no living people around and that the village was empty before signaling Billy to begin.He was being cautious, worried that a member of Abyssal Surge Sect might still be nearby. But he was probably overthinking it—after all, even the boldest person wouldn't risk staying here for too lo
"Come out and face me if you dare. Otherwise, stop barking like a dog!" Felix snapped.The voice vanished. Felix quickly asked, "Can you tell me what sect Candace exposed?"Alistair remained silent, unwilling to speak. Xena hesitated for a while before using voice transmission to say, "It's Abyssal Surge Sect. But you must keep this to yourself."She chose to confide in Felix because she had absolute trust in him.Felix thought, "Abyssal Surge Sect—the second of the top super sects. Those bastards really have some nerve."He then asked, "So, with no actual evidence, I take it Abyssal Surge Sect is untouched?"Xena sighed in frustration. "Yes. We can't act on Candace's testimony alone. Even if they were a minor sect, we'd still need evidence before taking any steps."Felix sneered. It made sense now why someone would risk reaching out to him via voice transmission, trying to pressure him into fabricating evidence. They knew there was no proof.Even if he told Xena about the
After hearing Alistair's explanation, an image suddenly flashed in Felix's mind."Hold on. I might know an expert in this field. The question is whether he'll agree to help."When Felix glanced at Xena, she immediately understood and, after a brief hesitation, nodded. With dozens already dead, they couldn't afford to delay any longer—who knew how many more lives might be lost?"Fine. Ask him. If he can genuinely help, there will definitely be a reward," Xena assured him.But before making the call, Felix had another question. "What about those elite experts you mentioned earlier? Haven't they been deployed?"Xena sighed. "They've been deployed to key cities. Each one can monitor multiple locations and immediately detect a Skybound Revenant if it appears. The problem is, these revenants might possess intelligence, allowing them to sense danger."They could deliberately target remote, impoverished areas or deep wilderness regions. But those are still living, breathing citizens of D
