"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

While waiting for Zara's call at home, Felix received one from Seven first. Seven reported, "Mr. Zeller, I checked on Drake when I got your order. He's already on a plane to Azuria."Felix was puzzled, wondering if Drake was really scared by his display of wealth at Sixview Peak. He questioned, "Then, just execute him when he lands. Why are you asking me?" "Flair only operates within Dragonia. We haven't expanded overseas; as you know, Ms. Davis isn't interested in that direction," Seven explained with resignation. Thinking of Averill's carefree nature, Felix knew Seven was not lying. "Fine. Execute if Drake returns. Otherwise, let it go," Felix decided. Such a minor figure was not worth pursuing internationally.…As night fell, Felix drove to a coffee shop where Zara was already waiting. As she got into the passenger seat, she said, "Felix, thank you so much for helping." "If Mr. Grayson knows you're afraid of supernatural things, why would he assign you this kind of ta

Zara lowered her head, not wanting Felix to notice her disappointment. She replied, "Yes, I understand. It won't happen again."When they reached the entrance of Mourning Village, the eerie atmosphere hit them both. Felix felt a shiver creep down his spine as he stared at the darkened village ahead. It loomed like the gaping maw of a monstrous beast, swallowing anyone who dared step inside and leaving no hope of return.Even standing outside, the oppressive darkness was suffocating. Felix could only imagine how it would feel to walk into the heart of it."Felix, let's put on the protective items," Zara urged.They quickly covered themselves with the various charms purchased from Sixview Peak. Felix was unsure if he was doing it to humor Zara or to settle his unease, but he did not mind the slight comfort it brought.Even as a powerful martial artist, Felix understood that the human fear of ghosts and the unknown could not simply be dismissed with brave words. With everything in pl

When they reached the corner, both black and white figures had vanished. However, Felix's lips curled into a slight smile as he muttered, "Well, I'm not going to be the one regretting this."Still carrying Zara, Felix raised his right hand slightly and then brought it down decisively. A thunderous crash echoed through the village, and a deep crater appeared about 300 feet away.Felix walked to the edge of the crater, gently set Zara down, and turned on his phone's flashlight. Zara gasped and covered her mouth in horror. Inside the crater lay two men, bloodied and severely injured."I knew there were no ghosts—just people playing tricks," Felix said as he crouched down. He continued, "Tell me. What makes two Martial Emperors play ghosts in some abandoned village? And how did you create those ghostly voices?"The two men paled with fear and stared at Felix as if he were a monster. The fact that a single strike from him had left them in this state spoke volumes about his strength.

Xena and Alistair were already at the scene with numerous Wolfie troops members, having arrived in multiple helicopters. "Mr. Zeller, we'll take them in for questioning. Thank you for your help," Alistair said."Are you feeling suspicious about this incident?" Xena asked. When Felix nodded, she continued, "Dragonia is vast. Despite Mourning Village's supernatural reputation, there were never any casualties, so previous investigations were merely for show—they found nothing and left."That made sense. With no death, it would surely not get much attention. Felix had to admit that Polaris' strategy was clever. They scared people, but they never crossed the line into actual harm."Will the Martial Alliance handle this?" Felix inquired. Xena shook her head firmly and explained, "No. Given the severity of the situation, I've received authorization from headquarters to handle this personally. Anyone from Polaris involved will face the consequences."She added, "We can't let people s

"Why would Medic's Haven's enforcement team want anything with me?" Felix asked, puzzled. He had never interfered with their affairs."I'm not sure of the details, but they claim you've insulted them and want to investigate," Silas explained.Felix immediately thought of Ethan and believed this had to be his doing. He smirked—Malcolm had already retreated, yet Ethan still dared to act out. "Got it. Thanks for the heads-up," Felix replied casually.Silas sensed Felix's underlying mood and added, "Just be careful. You know how Medic's Haven operates. "While most members are reasonable, their enforcement team is notoriously aggressive. Try to be diplomatic. If the investigation goes smoothly, this might blow over. Don't antagonize them." Felix knew Silas meant well, so he gave a polite response. Still, Felix was not the kind to bow his head over something he did not do. If they wanted trouble, they would get exactly what they asked for."Everything really was under Mr. Grayson'

About 20 minutes later, Marley sent another message. "At the supermarket now."Almost simultaneously, Felix finally detected a martial artist within his domain. He mumbled, "Early-stage Blood Realm?"That was not much in Martial City, but it was considered a high-level martial artist in the capital. Either it was just a coincidence, or there was a strong chance this person was the one who had dropped off the solution.Felix picked up his groceries and casually moved toward the checkout counter near the storage lockers, all while keeping his domain locked onto the early-stage Blood Realm martial artist. The man was about 30 feet away, pretending to inspect apples. He was careful, moving naturally and avoiding anything suspicious. However, that was pointless under Felix's domain. Sure enough, he was watching the locker.The man finally relaxed only after the disguised Khalil arrived and retrieved the package. He grabbed two bags of fruit and headed for checkout.Felix exited the s

Phil acted like he had not heard Angie and continued walking. However, he suddenly stopped just as he took a few more steps. When he turned around, his expression had completely changed.He asked, "What did you say his name was?"Upon sensing a shift in the situation, Angie quickly answered, "Felix Zeller.""He's the one who wants to see me?""Yes!"Phil was visibly unsettled now. After a brief pause, he finally said, "Alright. Let's go."Carlos was stunned, wondering what the hell was going on. Did Felix really have connections in Newtown?When they arrived at the private dining room, Phil visibly flinched the moment he laid eyes on Felix. He quickly greeted, "Sir!"That single word sent shivers down Angie's and Carlos' spines. The difference in status was so glaringly obvious that it was downright terrifying. Felix did not recognize the young man, but anyone with ties to Newtown would undoubtedly know him.Felix immediately ordered, "Arrange for the Sinclairs to open their r

"Alright, alright, I'll do it—just stop shaking my arm, you're gonna rip it off," Felix replied.He had always preferred friends who did not allow their status to create distance. Jack was the same way—if he needed something, he wouldn't play games; he would just call and ask directly.Lindsay lit up with excitement. "I knew you'd come through! Angie, what do you think? Maybe you should marry him as a thank-you!"Angie was completely stunned, wondering if Felix was serious and could even pull strings in Newtown.Just then, Felix said, "You just need to bring that guy to see me."Angel immediately went to the private room. Lindsay had fought to get her this chance, and she would be the biggest fool alive if she let it slip away.Just as she reached the private dining room, a middle-aged man stepped out. She greeted, "Dad."The man was none other than Angie's father, Carlos Sinclair. He asked, "Angie, where are you going?"Without hesitation, Angie laid everything out.Carlos f

The eerie transformation played out in front of everyone, yet not a single person looked surprised. In mere moments, the man had completely taken on Stewart's appearance—it was almost impossible to tell them apart.Felix said approvingly, "Not bad. Unless someone gets close enough to inspect, they'll never notice the difference."After confirming earlier that the solution had successfully eliminated Chloe's body odor, Felix immediately contacted Xena and requested reinforcements from headquarters. Instead of fighters, he asked for skilled operatives who could impersonate Stewart and two other dentists connected to the case.The mastermind behind this would not be switching locations after every move—it was a cycle. Eventually, they would use one of these three dentists again, and whoever got the next call would lead them to the source.Felix had prepared this plan in advance. The actual execution depended on the details Stewart provided, and now that they had those, it was time to
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1216
Felix would never call himself an expert when it came to soul manipulation. Meanwhile, Stewart sat stiffly, his face devoid of emotion. A moment later, Marley emerged from the side room with two others."Who told you to use that solution during the dental cleaning for body odor patients?" Felix got straight to the point.Stewart remained expressionless as he answered, "I don't know. I just got a random call telling me to pick up a package from a locker at a supermarket. "They said when a patient with body odor came in, I should use the solution during their cleaning. Along with the solution, there were 50 thousand dollars—I couldn't resist, so I did as I was told."Marley frowned after hearing that. "Just as you suspected, sir, they're being extremely cautious."If Stewart had received his instructions this way, the dentists at the clinics visited by the two deceased victims would likely have followed the same pattern. They pressed Stewart with more questions, but none of his ans

Chloe stepped into the treatment room and found herself face-to-face with a middle-aged doctor, Stewart. He looked like he was in his 40s and was wearing a surgical mask.He said, "Hello! Lie down.""Alright," Chloe mumbled. She followed the instructions given by the person on the street—pay the fee, stay silent, and go through with a routine cleaning. Coincidentally, she had actually gotten her teeth cleaned before, so the entire procedure felt exactly the same. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary. However, she could not help but wonder if this could actually cure her body odor. Just then, Stewart said, "You're all set. You can leave now."Chloe wanted to ask more questions but held herself back. She stepped out of the dental clinic and walked a block in the agreed-upon direction before Felix appeared."Open your mouth," Felix said. Then, he swirled a cotton swab inside her mouth and examined it closely in the light.Just like that, he already knew what was going on.Chloe as

Donna explained, "I call them hybrids because they aren't real Malevolent Phantoms. They just inherit certain traits, which aren't always the same! "For example, some might have regenerative abilities purely on a physical level—this doesn't require soul energy. Their bodies just heal on their own. Others might inherit aspects related to soul energy, but overall, there's no fixed rule."However, one thing is certain. At least from what I know, Malevolent Phantoms cannot truly reproduce by merging with other species. No matter what, they won't give birth to a real Malevolent Phantom."Felix latched onto that last sentence, his grip tightening as he quickly asked, "Then, if they aren't real Malevolent Phantoms, does that mean whoever's controlling you guys can't reclaim them?"Donna replied, "Exactly! A hybrid is just that—a hybrid. Think of it like ligers, the lion-tiger hybrids humans breed. They're entirely new species. How could the ones controlling us possibly reclaim them?"Fe

Felix nearly choked on his own spit. He quickly cleared his throat and blurted out, "You sure you called the right person?"For a second, he panicked. If anyone else had overheard that, they would have thought Xena was announcing his child's birth.Xena replied, "No mistake. I was just too shocked. This is huge."Felix frowned and asked, "Alright… Then, why are you telling me about this?"Xena's tone turned serious. "Felix, we've been monitoring a Malevolent Phantom for a while. We finally took it down. But here's the thing—its wife was already pregnant, and just now… she gave birth."Felix's expression darkened as he thought, "Its wife? No—more accurately, the wife of the human the Malevolent Phantom has replaced."He mumbled aloud, "Are you saying…""You guessed it," Xena confirmed grimly. "To be sure, we called in Dr. Morris. He made a small incision on the newborn's arm, and the wound healed instantly."Felix gasped, wondering what the hell was going on. The idea of a Malev

Felix remarked, "You sure know a lot."He sighed. At this point, he had given up on being surprised—Billy seemed to know everything.Billy replied, "I was just thinking out loud, really. But Mr. Hoffman didn't tell you, and he didn't warn you not to listen to me, either… which probably means he's already given his silent approval!"He added, "When you reach peak Grandmaster, the nine Dragonspine fragments will completely dissolve. Normally, they would merge into your body, unleashing an indescribable energy that continuously strengthens your physique. "Now imagine that—combined with Dragon Punches—how powerful you'd be."Dragon Punches was a technique that had only appeared after Felix had gathered the final Dragonspine fragment and ascended to Grandmaster. Yet, somehow, Billy knew about it, too.All the techniques recorded in Dragons Destroyer had vanished, leaving behind only Dragon Punches—a purely physical combat technique. He had never used it before because he had not enco
