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
Half an hour later, Felix, Jack, and Vanessa arrived at Nancy's apartment, where she was busy in the kitchen, wearing an apron. "Make yourselves comfortable," she called out. "Just two more dishes to go. Nessa, could you help entertain them?"The apartment was not large, around 900 square feet. Nancy had bought it with a mortgage and help from her parents for the down payment. According to Vanessa, Nancy was fiercely independent and wanted her own place, leaving future marriage considerations for later.As a university professor, Nancy's income was decent enough to handle the mortgage payments. Her modest dress and lifestyle showed she was neither extremely frugal nor wasteful with money."Wow! Cici, your place is so neat and clean," Jack complimented. "Unlike our mess of an apartment."Vanessa immediately pinched his ear. "Oh? Complaining about me? We agreed when we got together that you're in charge of housework or we hire a housekeeper. Having second thoughts now?"Felix coul
Unfortunately, Nancy's warning came too late. He had already opened the door, but instead of Jack and Vanessa, Drake stood there with a large bouquet of roses and a confident smile that quickly vanished upon seeing Felix."What the hell are you doing in Cici's apartment?" Drake demanded.Felix frowned. "Watch your language."Before Drake could curse again, Nancy rushed to the door. "Drake, when will you stop? If you keep harassing me, I'm calling the police!"She had tried to prevent Felix from opening the door earlier because of a suspicious delivery call, remembering how Drake had used similar tactics before."Cici, don't call the cops! I'm serious about you!" Drake shouted, his eyes now fixed on Felix, full of hostility.When Drake showed no signs of leaving, Nancy angrily retrieved her phone. "I'm really going to call the police!"However, her phone rang at that moment. It was her mother, and she had to answer. "What? Uncle's in the hospital? It's that serious? I understan
"Mom! I know someone incredibly skilled who can definitely cure Uncle Gary!" Nancy's enthusiastic announcement drew everyone's attention, and her mother's face lit up with hope."Really? Contact them right away!" her mother, Samantha Niles, exclaimed excitedly.Nancy pulled Felix forward and introduced him. "Mom, this is Felix Zeller, my good friend."Samantha gave a polite greeting, though she internally questioned why Nancy was introducing a friend at such a critical time. "Hello, Felix. It's nice to meet you," she said before turning to Nancy. "Well, Cici. Hurry up and make the call!"After a brief pause, Nancy declared seriously, "Felix is the master healer I was talking about."The announcement caused an uproar among the relatives gathered in the hospital waiting room."Don't be ridiculous, Cici! He's far too young to be a master healer," Samantha protested."Exactly, Nancy! At his age, being a resident physician would be impressive enough," one of her aunts chimed in."Wh
Drake did not let the awkwardness affect him. He quickly recovered with a smile and said, "Dr. Ziegler, I contacted Dr. Richie about this case."Leonard withdrew his hand. He thought Drake was Felix's friend, which was why he had bothered with the handshake in the first place. Since it was not the case, Leonard walked past Drake without another word. As Leonard approached the patient, Nancy and her relatives quickly stepped aside. After a brief examination, he looked up and asked, "Which one of you is Nancy Yonder?"Nancy hesitated until Samantha gently pushed her forward. "H-Hello, Dr. Ziegler. I'm Nancy."Leonard's expression softened considerably. "Don't worry. I've decided to take Mr. Niles' case. We'll move him to a special care unit, run some additional tests, and I'll personally perform the surgery at 6:00 pm."Though somewhat confused, Nancy knew Leonard's prestigious reputation just by seeing her relatives' awestruck expressions. "Thank you, Dr. Ziegler."The medical te
"Just friends? Regular friends don't visit each other's homes or care this much! Do you think I'm an idiot? Watch your back, pretty boy," Drake snarled.Drake watched Felix walk away. He clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with cold fury. He clearly had not taken Felix's warning to heart, or if he had even listened at all....At sunset, in a coffee shop in Yartford, Aimee sat waiting for someone. After about 20 minutes, a young man walked in and took the seat across from her. He asked, "Aimee, it's been months. What made you reach out?"Aimee smiled and pulled out a sealed plastic bag containing a single strand of hair that Yvonne had given her. "Leroy, if I remember correctly, you mentioned being a distant relative of the Greene family, right?" Leroy Kidman nodded slightly. "Why would I lie about that? But if you're hoping to ask any favors from the Greene family through me, it's impossible. "To be blunt, I don't have that kind of pull, and we're not that close."They ha
Because the gap between the members of the Jacobs family's strength and Felix's was huge, it was impossible for them to escape. They were all beaten up by him, without leaving behind a single corpse. Only by killing these members of the Jacobs family could there no longer be any continuation.When Felix entered the house, he lay on the bed. He didn't think that he was exposed by Vanessa or her family. With the Jacobs family's and Elders' Council's capability of finding information, learning about it was easy. Besides, everyone's gazes and expressions were normal during the wedding. He couldn't be bothered to look into it more.At this time, Felix received a call from Xena. "Xena.""Don't call me like that. I hope you always remember that! Giving you a call means nothing. You just need to listen. After I finish speaking, I'll block you again."Felix's mood wasn't affected much. After experiencing such a difficult battle, he felt neutral. He only needed to try his best to make up f
"Who's there?" The sudden scene halted Charles' movements."This sword…" Only Oliver was staring at the sword as his eyes widened. "It's the Duo Moon Sword. Could it be Sword Goddess?"Sword Goddess? Even Charles' expression changed. He took a sharp breath. Sword Goddess was considered a legend. There was a year when Sword Goddess traveled to various parts of Dragonia with her sword. Whenever she encountered injustice, she would take action, resolving it with just one move. To this day, no one had ever been worthy enough to see her second move."We should go!" When Oliver returned to his senses, he quickly reminded everyone to leave. He didn't dare to stay there any longer."Can we really escape?" Luca's legs couldn't move. He was frightened. A martial arts master in the early stage of Blood Realm was frightened to this extent. No one would have believed it if news spread."Calm down! If Sword Goddess wanted to kill us, we would have been dead long ago. She's letting us leave."
"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
