Felix stared at Lemuel, wondering if the latter had lost his mind. "Mr. Morris, are you sure you're talking to me?" Lemuel's smile widened as he stepped closer. "Of course, I'm talking to you. And when I say your father, I don't mean the one who passed away. I'm referring to your biological father, Victor Greene."Felix was shocked. He had never met Lemuel before, yet this man seemed to know so much about him. He asked, "How do you know about that?" Lemuel explained, "Victor and I are best friends. Actually, this antidote I'm working on is for him, but it seems we're running out of time."Five years ago, he started falling ill. It's been relentless—as soon as one disease is cured, another takes its place, as if he's been cursed."Felix let out a bitter laugh. "Well, maybe he deserves it." Any parent who abandoned their child deserved such a fate in his mind—there was no excuse for abandonment, especially when they had the choice not to have a child in the first place.Sensin
"What!" Nala jumped to her feet, fully aware that the conflict between Felix and Malcolm had started because of her. "Damn it! Since when did the Crayden family become so aggressive? How dare they plan an assassination when the Saphira family is involved?" she exclaimed. This also puzzled Alfie, as the Eight Great Martial Families typically favored strategy over brute force."Have Yvonne warn Felix to get out of there immediately," Nala ordered."Yes, miss!" Alfie rushed to comply. Even though Felix had advanced significantly in his training, he was no match for a Crayden family elder. If they crossed paths, it would be certain death. This was not what Nala had wanted at all. Her interest in Felix stemmed from his incredible potential—his dual mastery of both medicine and martial arts was extraordinary. She had been banking on his future growth to benefit her plans, but all would be lost if he died now."Felix, you absolutely cannot die," she whispered, clenching her fists.
Jeffrey stepped forward, his energy radiating powerfully. "Go ahead and try! We've both reached the Ultimate Mortal Realm."We've never had the chance to fight, and maybe today's the day we find out who's stronger."Malcolm raised his hand dismissively. "Sorry, but I'm here for Felix, not you, Jeffrey. "He turned to Felix and taunted, "What's wrong, Felix? Are you just going to hide behind others like a coward? You had the guts to mess with the Crayden family, but not the courage to face the consequences?"Before Felix could respond, Jeffrey let out a contemptuous laugh. "You're not even sure you can beat me, yet you want to fight Mr. Zeller? That's the joke of the century!" Felix had already achieved the Innate Realm, far beyond Malcolm's level. He could end this with a single strike. Malcolm stroked his chin, smirking. "Oh? You make a good point. After all, he must be special to catch Lady Nala's eye."He raised his hand again, and Harry hurried over like an eager puppy, li
The power gap was absolute. It was an unbridgeable chasm. The next moment, Omar vanished completely, moving too fast for Jeffrey's eyes to track."Dad, did you anticipate this?" Jeffrey thought helplessly, knowing he could only prepare to collect Felix's body. No one had expected the Craydens to break from the rule so drastically. Suddenly, a muffled boom echoed through the air. Omar's figure reappeared, stumbling backward several steps until he reached Malcolm's side, shockingly coughing up blood."Show yourself!" Malcolm cried out in alarm. As he looked closer, he saw a short, middle-aged man standing expressionlessly about six feet in front of Felix. "Since when did the Craydens earn the right to discipline members of my family?" As the voice rang out, a young man emerged from a nearby building, casually chewing on a toothpick."Asher Greene!" Malcolm, being from Yartford, recognized the young man instantly. While Jeffrey did not know him personally, the name Greene carried e
Felix shook his head firmly. "My home ceased to exist when my parents died."Asher stopped and looked at Felix as if he were an idiot. "Are you fucking dense, Felix? I could've found you at your place, but I chose this location specifically to show you what the Greene family is capable of."You'd be dead if I hadn't intervened just now! Isn't that enough to make you understand?"Felix had to admit Asher had a point, and he seemed surprisingly considerate. "Thanks for your kindness, but my only home now exists in my heart." Asher was exasperated. "Listen. The only reason you have this chance to return to the Greene family is because Uncle Victor is dying! Otherwise, given Grandma's attitude, you wouldn't even be considered! "Are you really going to refuse to see your dying father one last time?"At these words, Felix thought of Lemuel and pulled out the box. "This is Mr. Morris' medicine. It will give him one more week to live. You can deliver it for me."Asher accepted the box
"Felix, this is Zara Morgan. I'm sorry, but Mr. Grayson's watching me closely, so I had to use a new number to contact you," she explained. Even now, Felix could not understand why Silas had made him make that promise."Go ahead. I'm listening," Felix replied calmly."Well... could you accompany me somewhere tonight? I could go alone, but the place is supposedly haunted at night, and I'm really scared," Zara clarified nervously.Felix found her excuse rather strange. "Zara, normally, I'd help you with anything, but I made a promise to Mr. Grayson. I don't want to go back on my word."Besides, Ernest was there at that time. If Silas found out about this and came looking for Felix, it would only bring nothing but trouble. "I know, but you owe me a favor. Surely a man of honor can repay a debt?" Zara countered.Felix had to admit she had a point, which immediately eased his conscience. "Alright. I'll see you tonight.""I can't come out easily. Could you buy some protective charm
Felix watched other visitors freely entering and exiting Sixview Peak. Only an idiot would not realize Drake was behind this obstruction.Drake strutted over, his eyes full of arrogance. "Can you see the difference between us? This small example should make you understand your place."If you kneel before me now and sincerely promise to stay away from Nancy, I'll let this go and won't take any further action," Drake declared smugly. Felix ignored him, already considering Drake a dead man. After getting what he needed from Sixview Peak, he would have Seven from the Flair deal with him."Can you give me a valid reason for denying my entry? Otherwise, I'll have to pursue my legal rights," Felix addressed the guards.Before they could answer, a new voice interrupted, "Sixview Peak welcomes all visitors, but why enter when you're not a believer?" A chubby young man about Felix's age emerged, his innocent face contrasting with his wise-sounding words.The two gatekeepers immediately
Drake laughed. "Felix, just drop the act! Even someone as rich as my dad has a mobile banking limit of 500 thousand dollars. "And you seriously think you can transfer ten million dollars just like that? Nice try at fooling everyone!" Felix turned to him with a pitying look. He said, "It must be exhausting pretending to be rich all the time."As a VIP client at Concord Bank, Felix had no such transfer limits. Before Drake could respond, Billy's eyes widened as he stared at his phone. He exclaimed, "I've received the money!"Then, he quickly composed himself and resumed his wise demeanor. "Sir, your spiritual understanding far surpasses mine. Someone of your devotion is more than welcome at Sixview Peak. Please enter!" Billy gestured grandly. Felix was not just being petty—he needed to buy those items, and money was not an issue. Besides, supporting peaceful religion seemed worthwhile.Watching Felix disappear inside, Drake began trembling as he recalled Luis' warning—he ha
Ben was quite an interesting character. Felix felt amused. "Really? Then, I'll just kill all of you and run. Thank you for your kind reminder!"Huh? For a second, Ben was caught off guard, and he was at a loss for words. After all, who wanted to die? He definitely didn't. The issue was the two strongest men he had were killed in seconds. Who else could stop Felix from killing them all? Gulping, Ben forced a smile and chuckled. "Kid, we're all trying to make money here. I merely misspoke earlier. Fifteenth Overlord treasures talent the most! And with your skills, he definitely won't fight you when he comes."Felix smiled. "Really? Then, what about the people I've injured?""No, no, don't worry about them. They're not as skilled as you, and it's only right for them to have such an end." After some thought, Felix nodded. "Alright. Since you said so, I'll wait for Fifteenth Overlord to come."A few minutes later, a man rushed in, shouting, "Mr. Hitchcock! Mr. Murray is here to
Felix knew Trevor wasn't lying, which surprised him even more. Fifteenth Overlord was nothing more than just a gang boss, yet even Cairo didn't dare to attack him? That had to be a joke.Felix's curiosity was bursting at the seams. When they finally reached the hall, he noticed the whole street was full of two-story buildings. The exterior walls were all painted the same color—uniform and stoic. They entered through a corner entrance, walking straight into a large courtyard. "Mr. Hitchcock, please! I was wrong! I'll never do it again! Please give me another chance!" A man was kneeling in the yard, covered in blood and begging for mercy. Soon, he was hit on the head, and he fell to the ground. Ten men were standing around the collapsed man, and they all turned to look at Felix in unison. The only man unfazed was a bearded middle-aged man with a cup of coffee in his hands. He sat on the side, sipping almost happily and seemingly enjoying the scene."Mr. Hitchcock!" Trevor exc
The burly man sneered. "We're just following orders. You'd better follow us. Otherwise, you know the consequences."Just as the burly man finished speaking, Felix waved his phone around. "You all should leave quickly. I've already called the police. I checked, and the nearest police station is only 1.8 miles away from here!"Both Lars and Yolanda were stunned—even the burly man was dumbfounded. He had never encountered this before. Everyone knew who Fifteenth Overlord was, yet Felix still dared to call the police?"Fuck! I'll remember you! You'd better visit Fifteenth Overlord, Yolanda. Otherwise, you'll be in even more trouble." The burly man scowled before turning around to his men. "Let's go!"The MPVs left as quickly as they came. When Felix turned to Lars and Yolanda, they both looked ashen. He asked in confusion, "What happened? Why are you guys so pale? They left, didn't they?" Lars smiled bitterly. "It's okay. You just came back. You don't know how terrifying Fifteent
Lars slammed on the brakes, and the car squealed to a stop. He turned to look at Felix in disbelief. "H-How much did you say?"Felix looked startled and blurted, "My dad said as long as it's not more than ten billion dollars, I can do whatever I want."Lars quickly sucked in a breath of cold air excitedly, turning to look at Yolanda. On the other hand, she was quite composed."Is your family really that rich now, Felix?"She really couldn't believe that her former classmate could be this rich. Yolanda's family had started their business back when she was in elementary school, and it took decades of development to reach this level. It wasn't that she looked down on him, but Felix's words were too unbelievable.If his father dared throw the requirements of less than ten billion dollars to do whatever he wanted, that meant that Felix's family had at least tens of billions of dollars in assets. Otherwise, who would dare do this?It wasn't just an exaggeration. It was simply outrage
After phoning in the dead body, Felix left. He didn't explain much but only said that Bonnie was a Malevolent Phantom and asked to come and dispose of the body. Back on the main road, Felix walked on the sidewalk, planning to walk back to his hotel. However, a car stopped next to him. "Felix!" It was Lars and Yolanda in a Mercedes-Benz G500. Yolanda looked utterly confused in the passenger seat. "Oh, it 'is' you."The tennis court was one of the prestigious courts in Monaire despite being open for around a year. It was also located in the suburbs, so seeing Felix walking on the roadside was odd."Why are you walking?"Felix replied with a smile, "The scenery is really beautiful here, so I plan to walk back. It's still early anyway."Lars rolled his eyes. "Dude, it's over six miles away from the city. Do you actually plan to walk back?"On the side, Yolanda piped up, "Come join us, then. You must've seen enough of the scenery, right?"After some thought, Felix agreed. This w
Bonnie's expression turned ugly. She caught a glimpse of something behind Felix. However, she couldn't see it clearly."Do you really think I'm afraid of you?" She smirked. Knowing how terrifying the spell was, she no longer held back. Black markings surged across her face and instantly covered it.The scene was eerie. At the same time, Felix used his killer move. "Six Word Mantra!"Despite being the same spell, its power had been heavily improved. The Phaeron Projection had no attack power, but once used, it could enhance all of Felix's soul attacks.On the other hand, Bonnie didn't sense a difference. She noticed the projection behind Felix. But because of his current strength, the projection was weak and blurry. As his strength grew, the projection would become clearer and more powerful.A terrifying wave of energy surged toward Bonnie, so she didn't hold back her final trump card. "Dark Shadow!" Instantly, a 32-foot-tall shadow appeared. Its bloody mouth opened as it whist
Bonnie was obviously stronger in terms of soul mastery—perhaps it was why Felix couldn't sense her realm despite being in his domain. There seemed to be a strange energy that surrounded her.He didn't dare to use his marital artist techniques to attack. Although he had the Infinite Shield, if he wasn't careful, there was a chance to damage his soul. That would be completely catastrophic. In the battle between souls, it was necessary to be completely focused—they were all written in the book given by Billy. "You're quite smart. I thought you were going to attack me with your martial arts." She sounded almost disappointed. She had thought Felix was just another untrained brute, that he would instinctively use his martial arts to fight her. If he did, she would undoubtedly have a chance to beat him."Enough!" Felix exclaimed as he launched the first attack. Lumen flew out, but Bonnie wasn't afraid at all.Something flew out of her body as she exchanged blows with the Lumen. As ex
Felix had been wondering about how he was going to find the Eight Guardians—but he didn't expect one to show up right in front of him. It seemed like Karina's last attack hadn't been too severe. Otherwise, how did Ashton recover so quickly?In order to rescue Melissa and Ronan, Gerald had set a goal, and Felix had to execute it no matter what. Despite the power of the Eight Guardians, he must take them all down.Without another word, a domain immediately surrounded them, and Felix frowned."You're not Ashton."The energy exuded by this man was definitely of a martial artist, but once in the domain, Felix immediately realized that it was just a man in the early stages of the Transcendent Realm. How the hell could he be Ashton?Before he finished his words, Felix leaped toward the man and grabbed him by the neck. "Tell me! Who are you? Why are you impersonating Ashton?"The man immediately dropped the pretense and fear overtook his expression. "Spare me! It was a woman who tampered
Yolanda smiled bitterly. The idea made sense, but she rejected the thought. "Forget it. You know how large of a sum my financial crisis is! It's 5 billion dollars!"Even the bank blacklisted us and it's impossible to get a loan. Besides, whether it's individuals or companies, who in Monaire has the strength to come up with 5 billion dollars on the spot—except for that bastard."She sighed. "I don't deny that Felix is most likely filthy rich, but 5 billion dollars? That's impossible."Felix sat in the car outside of the tennis court. Everything had been planned after his brief investigation, so, of course, there would be no reason for failure. After discovering their family background, he realized the Zuckerbergs weren't ordinarily rich.It was no wonder they could prevent Serena from marrying into the Warlock family back then. They had everything. It was just a pity that Yolanda's father meddled in the import-export business. Initially, it was successful, creating a big name for th
