"Milady." Belle grabbed Xena's arm, knowing just how terrifying Nocturno was as a wanted criminal. Unlike criminals who acted in the dark, he often appeared in public, yet he remained elusive due to his extraordinary strength. Even now, no one knew what his limits were."I've already called headquarters. Should we wait for their support before proceeding?" Xena patted Belle's arm, fully aware that she meant well. "It might be too late by then. Regardless of Nocturno's intentions to see me, this is undoubtedly the best opportunity to take him down. If we wait for headquarters, Nocturno isn't a fool—he'll have already escaped," Xena said."Don't worry. I'm not that easy to deal with, either," she added.Though she said this, Xena felt uncertain. Every Super S-rank wanted criminal was formidable in their own right.…Meanwhile, Felix had returned to his villa. He didn't intend to turn on the lights. Given the armed guards outside, suddenly illuminating the place would be hi

Xena glanced at Felix with a complex expression. "Please wait in the yard. My people need to search your villa. Don't worry. We won't mess up the place," she said."Okay." Felix nodded.When Belle emerged from the villa with her team, Xena left with just a glance. However, before departing, she said, "Sorry for the trouble." Felix was surprised. It was a miracle that this woman could maintain such a good attitude in front of him.… The child had already been sent to the hospital, and her parents were notified. Xena and Belle then drove toward the Phoenix Legion headquarters. Most of their personnel had been dispatched throughout Avesburgh to search for Nocturno, although they knew the chances of finding him were slim. But one question lingered. Why had Nocturno suddenly abandoned the child and not killed Felix, who was also sleeping in the villa? This was completely out of character for Nocturno. He was known to be brutal, which was why he was classified as a Super S-ran

Felix had already changed into his pajamas and finished washing up. He was now preparing for bed. However, just then, the doorbell rang. He was puzzled. Who could be visiting at this late hour?His expression was strange as he saw Xena on the video monitor."Do you have something else to discuss?" he said.Seeing that Felix was outside but hadn't opened the gate, Xena felt a surge of irritation. However, remembering her inner suspicions, she held back her frustration. "Although it's a bit late and my visit is somewhat inappropriate, is this how you welcome your guests?" she snapped.Felix opened the gate and turned to walk away. "Come in," he said.Xena was even more annoyed by his attitude. After all, she was the first goddess of war in Dragonia—beautiful and talented, the dream woman of countless men. Yet, every time she encountered Felix, it felt as though he had a way of filtering out her extraordinary beauty as if he simply couldn't see it."Get to the point. I'm

At 10:00 am, Sasha entered a café in Avesburgh."Good morning, Mr. Glover," she greeted.The one who had called her out was Ted. His stature was far beyond her reach, and she had heard he had a terrifying background. Even Hugo would respectfully address him as Mr. Glover.When she received the call last night, she was puzzled. No matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't figure out what she had done to warrant a meeting with Ted."Have a seat," Ted said with a smile. "I looked around and found out that you know Felix. Your relationship with him is not ordinary." Instantly, Sasha stood up again, her expression in complete disarray."Mr. Glover, let me explain. While I do know Felix, I dislike him. I would not be in touch with him if it weren't for my dad. So, whatever trouble he's caused has nothing to do with me or my family," she clarified.In her view, Felix, the big fraud, had somehow gotten on Ted's bad side. It took guts to mess with someone of his stature. "Y

"Change?" The sales associate was taken aback by the request. She knew the customer was always right, but she seemed to have a bit of a temper and dared to question him."Why?" Felix frowned even deeper. "Looks like the favors from back then have gone to waste. It's only been three years, and you don't recognize your cousin. Sabrina, you haven't changed at all."Indeed, the woman before him, with her stunning figure, was Felix's cousin, Sabrina Zeller, the daughter of his fifth uncle. When Sabrina heard this, her eyes widened as she took a closer look at Felix, finally recalling something. "Oh, my God! Is that you, Felix? I can't believe you're still alive!" This instinctive reaction revealed the nature of their relationship. "I don't want to waste time talking with you. Get me another sales associate. You wouldn't want me to file a complaint, would you?" Whether from his father's side or his mother's, those relatives were all ungrateful ingrates. When Felix's father

As Nina prepared the sales agreement, Felix waited in the lobby.Milo entered the car dealership and headed straight for Sabrina."Sabrina, let's have lunch together. I was taking care of some business around this area and thought of you, but you didn't answer my calls at all," Milo said.Sabrina sneered. She usually had men interested in her wrapped around her finger, and Milo was one of them. After he bought a Range Rover last time, he had been pestering her relentlessly."Oh, Mr. Quinton, I'm at work. How could I have time to answer the phone?" Sabrina replied.After saying that, Sabrina suddenly thought of something and looked on the verge of tears, which Milo noticed."What's wrong? Who's bullied you?" he asked.Sabrina forced out a tear. "I'm... I'm fine!" she said.This was the perfect opportunity for Milo to impress the woman he loved. "Tell me! Damn it! Who dares to bully you? I'll stand up for you," he bellowed."Mr. Quinton, you're so good. I feel so safe with y

Nina was equally stunned. When she'd been preparing the agreement earlier, Jim had approached her. Once the agreement was ready, he followed her as she brought the document to Felix.She didn't expect to see him bow and scrape before Felix, even offering to give him the car for free. It was a top-of-the-range Range Rover worth 400 thousand dollars!"No, it's fine," Felix said.Jim seemed to expect Felix to turn him down. He lowered his head respectfully again. "Understood, Mr. Zeller. Once again, allow me to thank you for patronizing our store."He turned and pulled Nina aside. "Remember to satisfy whatever requirements Mr. Zeller has. You don't need to ask me for permission.""Yes, sir!" Nina said.Jim walked off, sighing in relief. Only then did he realize his forehead was covered in sweat. It was his first time dealing with a customer of such wealth and status, after all. How could he not be nervous?Felix had used Concord Bank's Diamond Card to pay for the car. "Wealthy" cou

Sabrina knew she'd guessed correctly when she heard Milo's words. He did indeed know Felix. She said, "That doesn't matter. Since you know Felix, tell me what he's doing now. How can he afford to buy such an expensive car?"Now that his doubts had been cleared, Milo returned to being disdainful. "What? Do you think he's someone important? Well, you're wrong. Here's the truth."He told her what Sasha had said and spread his hands. "All I can say is Uncle Warren dotes on Felix too much. You have no idea how pissed Sasha was! The money would've been hers in the future, after all."So, that was it. Sabrina relaxed and even patted her chest dramatically, which made Milo stare. He couldn't help it—she was just too well-endowed."Ultimately, he's still the same worthless loser I know him to be. To think I thought he'd made it big! It's disgusting that he's using his father's friendship with your uncle to scam your uncle out of his money," Sabrina said.…Felix left in his brand-new Rang

At 11:00 pm, they finished their dinner. Jack drove Ronan and Felix to the banquet hall. "Rest well, Felix. Leave everything to me!"Ronan had been dragged into the car by Melissa. The latter threatened to break up with him if he made Felix fight this time. "Okay," Felix replied. To be honest, he was a little drunk. The liquor was bought by Ryan and was made using a secret technique, so it was very valuable. Apparently, even powerful martial artists would be a little drunk after drinking it, so its authenticity was confirmed. Once they arrived at the place, they saw a large restaurant on Yartford's outskirts.It wasn't a coincidence that Ocean Whit chose this place. Since many experts were arriving there, they would be fighting a lot, and fighting wasn't allowed in the central area of Yartford. When the three men got out of the car, a muscular man at the entrance said, "If you can make me retreat without getting me injured, you can enter the banquet."That was probably the

Felix and his friends gathered in a luxurious private room at an upscale restaurant in Yartford that night."Everybody, please try the pasta. I hired professional chefs to cook it for all of you."Madeline called a group of waiters over. Her pasta was renowned for being delicious. After tasting it, Melissa, who loved eating pasta and fondue, exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! It tastes great, Maddy. When are you going to open a franchise in Gray City? I'll miss this terribly."Madeline smiled. "Since you said that, I'll open one soon."Though Ronan looked like a simple and honest person, he was actually pretty quick-witted. So, he swiftly said, "Can you teach me how to cook it, Maddy? If Melissa craves it in the future, I can cook that for her."Hearing that, Felix replied, "Shut up! That is Maddy's secret recipe. How could she give it to you? Let's drink instead."Realizing that Jack was drinking juice, Felix asked, "Are you a woman, Jack? Do you have that 'time of the month' when y

There was suddenly silence on the other end of the line. Felix thought it was because of a bad signal and was about to speak when a much fiercer voice came through, "What? You're the apprentice of the respected elder? Wow, that's an honor! "Don't worry, my future in-law. I guarantee my grandson will pursue your sister with all his heart. I swear, I won't lie to you. If this rascal isn't worthy, he wouldn't dare to force it."Respected elder? This was the first time Felix had heard someone refer to Gerald like that, so it felt a little strange."Are you sure?""Absolutely. Please pass the phone to my grandson, I need to give him a serious talking-to."Before handing over the phone, Felix asked who the old man was. The only answer he got was "Warlock", which he had never heard of.…Four days passed quickly. Despite the upcoming Dragonia Martial Arts Competition, Felix was not affected at all. He still went to the clinic every day, though he still hadn't had a single patient.
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 899
The clinic fell completely silent. No one expected Ronan to make such a move, and judging by his expression, it seemed like he was deadly serious.Billy started clapping, laughing out loud. "Good news! This is great news!"Melissa smacked him on his back immediately. "Are you out of your mind, fatso?"With an annoyed glance at Ronan, Melissa turned and ran off as she was genuinely startled."Wait, my wife! Don't leave! You're supposed to come home and have kids with me!"Ronan started to chase after her, but Felix stopped him. Wearing an ugly expression, he asked, "Is this how you pursue a woman?"Ronan, looking dumbfounded, didn't know what to say."Where did you find this kid?" Nala asked.Hearing that, Felix's expression darkened even more."I didn't actively search for him, alright? I had no idea he was going to pull something like this. Go check on Melissa."A few minutes later, only Felix and Ronan were left in the clinic."That's my sister Melissa. I didn't have the

As Ronan was about to leave, Felix called out, "Wait a second. You don't seem very experienced. Why don't you stick with me until the Dragonia Martial Arts Competition begins? "Big cities can be full of bad people. Didn't your grandfather ever teach you? It takes years to learn to do good, but you can pick up bad habits in just a day."Ronan tilted his head, thinking for a long moment before breaking into a smile. "Alright, thanks! I had no idea where I was going to stay anyway. And you seem like a nice guy.""I seem like a nice guy?" Felix thought. "I am a nice guy!"It seemed like the Dragonia Martial Arts Competition was drawing out a lot of hidden young talents.After Ronan entered the car, Felix walked over to the unconscious man. With a few well-placed silver needles, he extracted the information he needed. However, what he learned left him conflicted.The man had been sent by Xena's eldest uncle to kill him because Felix had killed two of Xena's uncles.He wondered how m

The young man seemed to be in his early 20s. He casually lifted Felix's Rolls-Royce Cullinan with one hand as if it were weightless and started walking forward.Lifting something as heavy as a car was not something an ordinary person could do. However, he didn't just lift the car. After taking a few steps, he even balanced it on his pinky finger. Clearly, he wasn't just any martial artist. He had to be someone extraordinary.Felix had no choice but to step forward and stop him. "Excuse me, but that's my car."The young man paused, looking at Felix with a bit of confusion. "You're sure about that?"Felix showed him his keys to the car. "Yeah, I'm pretty sure."Seeing that, the young man carefully placed the car back down and scratched his head awkwardly. "My bad! I thought it was abandoned. Wait. Is this a Rolls-Royce?"The young man's expression was sincere, as if he hadn't been exposed to much of the world. "Yes. It's a Rolls-Royce model called the Cullinan," Felix replied.T

The old man burst into uncontrollable laughter after confirming the truth."Cured? Someone has actually managed to cure our family's Fish Man Disease? Oh, thank the heavens!"What the heck? Did that mean he didn't want to be a Fish Man?"I am Kayden Lannerby," the old man said. "And what's your name?""Felix Zeller."Kayden nodded and continued, "You may not know this, but the Fish Man Disease is a hereditary curse in my family, Felix. We've sought out countless famous doctors over the generations, but no one could treat it. "Truthfully, curing it is quite simple—when the silver scales begin to show, removing just one from the hand would return the person to normal. But the challenge lies in the fact that the scales can't be removed."Felix silently agreed. Even with his extraordinary medical skills, it had been an incredibly difficult task."From this moment onward," Kayden said with a trace of hope, "if Pierre builds a family of his own, perhaps the Fish Men lineage will fin

Felix was stunned that he had been detected. After all, he had even activated the Nightshade Discipline. Back when he was with Helena, his presence could not be sensed even at close range. "What's the matter? Are you not willing to show yourself?"Grinding his teeth, Felix revealed himself. About ten yards away, an elderly man was standing there, watching him intently. The old man had an ordinary appearance, with slightly clouded eyes, and stood with his hands behind his back. There wasn't the slightest trace of fear or nervousness in his demeanor."Sorry. Maybe we're just traveling the same path," Felix said, forcing a smile.The corners of the old man's lips curled up slightly as he chuckled. "There's no such thing as pure coincidence in this world. Besides, I've never seen an expert as young as yourself."As he spoke, the old man slowly extended his hands forward. Felix noticed he was wearing gloves. Was he a Fish Man?The realization hit him like a thunderclap. As the gl

"I heard you've slept with Averill, Leslie, Delilah, and Mira?" Naomi said.Felix, who was in the middle of slurping the pasta, coughed out the contents in his mouth the moment he heard Naomi's words. He was at a loss for words. After all, it was true, and trying to deny it wouldn't change anything."What are you embarrassed about? We've always been your women. It was just a matter of time."Hearing those words come from Naomi's mouth gave Felix an indescribable sense of awkwardness.Her face, which had been slightly flushed, now seemed calm and resolute, as though she had come to terms with it."Do you know why Mr. Hoffman asked me to seek you out? It was to make sure we could sleep together."Felix started coughing again. "Naomi, are you serious?"Naomi nodded. "Yes. The cultivation technique I've been practicing is closely tied to the soul. Mr. Hoffman must have thought the time was right. He always has his reasons. "When we… uh… connect, it's not just about the physical
