Yvonne's wrists bore deep gashes. Blood seeped from her wounds, pooling across the floor. A knife lay nearby. Its presence made it glaringly obvious that Yvonne had slit her wrists.After what felt like an eternity, Yvonne slowly opened her eyes."Is this… hell?"As her faint words trailed off, a voice answered her, "Do you want to go to hell that badly?"Turning around, she saw Felix standing nearby, his face noticeably paler than usual."Felix? Did… Did you save me?"Felix's expression darkened as he fixed his gaze on her. "What else could I have done? Do you think I would've let you die? Yvonne, what were you thinking? Why did you try to kill yourself?"The room showed no signs of a struggle. While Yvonne would've been helpless facing a highly skilled fighter, things wouldn't be so messy if that were the case. The most likely explanation was that Yvonne truly intended to end her own life.Tears welled up in her eyes as she turned away."Lady Nala ordered me to die. How coul

"Alright. I'll talk to him about him when he wakes up," Xena replied.As they headed downstairs, they ran into Aimee, who had just entered the house."Felix? Who let you in here?"Before Felix could respond, Xena frowned and interjected, "Aimee, don't talk to Felix with that tone again, understood?"Aimee thought she had misheard. Her anger toward Felix flared up again. She had assumed that with the Greene family's involvement, Felix's fate would have been miserable. After all, families of that caliber rarely showed mercy to the people they had discarded. Yet here he was, still thriving.She had even sought answers from Nala, but there was no response. Seeing Felix standing in her own home was the last straw."Does he even deserve my respect? Have you forgotten the evil things this coward did to Grandpa?"Xena's expression turned icy. "That's not your concern. Just don't treat Felix like an enemy anymore."Feeling utterly betrayed by her own family, Aimee clenched her teeth. Le

Apart from Ethan, there were three other men dressed in white suits. They were led by a middle-aged man holding a badge in his right hand."I am Hezekiah Samson of the Law Enforcement Team from Medic's Haven. Come with us."Felix smirked coldly. "Ethan, have you picked out your grave yet? I never considered you worth my attention, but that doesn't mean I'll tolerate an ant pestering me endlessly."Hezekiah frowned. "How dare you threaten someone in the presence of the Law Enforcement Team? Take him away!"At that moment, Alistair stepped in front of Felix. "What evidence do you have for taking him away?"Hezekiah glared at Alistair in annoyance and asked, "And who might you be? Do you understand the consequences of obstructing the operations of Medic's Haven?""Alistair Hill, Commander of the Wolfie troops!"Hearing the name Wolfie troops, Hezekiah's expression softened considerably. "Ah, Captain Hill! Given your position, you should know that Medic's Haven has the authority to

Ethan's face shifted through a series of emotions before he scrambled into the car. "Quickly, Mr. Samson! Let's head back to Medic's Haven!"As the car sped away, Felix remained irritated. Those fools had chosen a spot with surveillance cameras. If it were somewhere more secluded, there would have been no need for all that talking. He'd have dealt with them directly.On top of that, Alistair was present. Felix didn't want to make things difficult for that upright guy."I'll handle this myself. Don't tell Xena about it."Alistair nodded solemnly. "Understood. I'll keep this to myself."…The next day, in an airport parking lot, Felix sat in the passenger seat of his car, gazing forlornly at Averill, who was gripping the steering wheel."Are you really not coming with me to Azuria, Averill?"The time had come to fulfill the Miracle Card. While he had a Speed Talisman from Gerald to escape if things went south, Felix couldn't help but worry. He hadn't forgotten the lesson from las

Garrett was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected Felix to revisit the topic. Just moments ago, he had completely given up hope."Mr. Zeller, I'm an old man now. I hope you'll believe my words," Garrett said earnestly.Felix nodded, signaling for him to continue. He had his reasons for asking."How should I put it? Well, the reason I had so much money and business connections when I came to Dragonia was all thanks to my elder brother. He's the chairman of Titan Holdings in Azuria, which is a true powerhouse among conglomerates. "I'm not exaggerating when I say that if he claimed snow was black, others wouldn't dare say otherwise."Oh? Felix's lips curled into a faint smile. It seemed he had gambled correctly. Garrett's elder brother held an unimaginably high status in Azuria."In that case, I'll help your brother. At the same time, I'll need his assistance with something. The details can wait until we meet," Felix said decisively.Garrett's face lit up with gratitude. "Thank

"Oh?" Felix stroked his chin thoughtfully. Good things didn't last forever. Since Caleb and his son were so outstanding, it would truly be extraordinary if their descendants could continue to carry that torch."I understand the big picture now. We'll discuss further when we meet him," Felix concluded.Garrett was overjoyed. Originally, he had returned to Azuria to celebrate the birth of Caleb's granddaughter. After all, it had been a month since Caleb's daughter had a daughter. To his surprise, he had encountered Felix. If Felix could truly resolve this issue, it would all be worth it.Upon landing, Garrett noticed the person who had come to pick him up and frowned. "Caleb didn't come?"Though the brothers didn't meet more than once or twice a year, their bond ran deep. Caleb had always personally picked him up from the airport."Dad had to travel to the island for an urgent and important meeting with foreign guests, Uncle Garrett. He couldn't make it," explained a younger man

Back then, Caleb had spent a fortune trying to invite one of Dragonia's master healers to treat Jenna, but his requests were mostly ignored. It was only through Garrett, who sought help from a friend, that Xander agreed to help.How did this young man manage to contact Xander with a phone call?In that instant, Adrian realized he had gravely underestimated Felix."Felix, I do recall someone named Jenna," Xander said over the phone. "Her case was exceptionally rare. It was so rare that I doubt I'll ever forget. She has what's called 'latent uterus syndrome.' I couldn't do anything about it."Latent uterus syndrome? Felix understood the situation immediately. No wonder countless doctors had failed to make any progress over the years. Such a condition was indeed extraordinarily rare.Latent uterus syndrome created the illusion of normalcy. Hence, all medical imaging showed a perfectly healthy uterus. However, the uterus lacked any of the essential functional characteristics of one.

The room was abruptly filled with over a dozen men in black suits, all wearing sunglasses.A round of applause broke the silence as Drake strode in."Welcome to our fine Azuria, Mr. Zeller! As the host, it's only right for me to show you some hospitality!"Although Felix was surprised to see him, he merely chuckled lightly. "You've got quite the knack for digging your own grave. You could've lived a comfortable life here in Azuria, but you've gone and made the most foolish choice possible."Drake's smile vanished instantly upon hearing Felix's bold words."You arrogant brat!" he snarled. "Open your damn eyes and look around. This is Azuria, not Dragonia! Whatever connections or money you have means nothing here. Got it?"Settling into a chair his subordinates had brought over, Drake crossed his legs arrogantly."I'll even give you the same deal I offered at Sixview Peak. Kneel before me, apologize, and promise never to go near Nancy again, and I'll let you off."Felix glanced a

The battle was raging on the other side, but Felix was not having it easy either.Five elders from the Maximus family had arrived after him. Two of them, at the late-stage of the Transcendent Realm, teamed up to fight Dickson, while the other three, at the middle-stage of the Transcendent Realm, launched an attack on Felix."You guys really have no shame. You're two realms above me, and still, you gang up on me three-to-one!" Felix had launched his Lone Paragon technique and was struggling to keep up."Just shut up. Your fate is sealed," one of them sneered.They didn't even acknowledge Felix's victory from the earlier fight, so why would they care about the ethics of ganging up on him?A few minutes later, Dickson was injured from the fight, while Felix was still desperately holding on. The fact that Felix was still in the fight alarmed the three middle-stage Transcendent Realm elders from the Maximus family.They thought, "Damn it, what's going on with this kid? Even if he laun

Inside the black smog was a perilous situation. The black mist seemed alive, stretching out countless tentacles that charged at Felix."Dancing Dragon!" Felix let out another command.The battle raged inside the smog. But outside, Atlas stood with his arms crossed and a faint smile on his lips."Mr. Marlow, don't worry. I have it under control. I won't kill him."Although he didn't receive a response from Dickson, it didn't dampen Atlas' confidence in winning the battle.This was his most powerful technique. When Obsidian Sky was unleashed, even an early-stage Transcendent Realm practitioner of the same level would suffer defeat on the spot. Middle-stage Transcendent practitioners would struggle to defend against it. As for Felix, so what if he had trained in the Dragon Destroyer technique? The Maximus family was a formidable force among martial artists.Suddenly, they heard a soft sound as a gap appeared in the black smog. Something surged out from inside.Atlas' expression c

"As the deputy chief of Harmony Clinic, I, Dickson Marlow, will not walk back on my promise," Dickson swore.The Maximus family members chortled at his reply.They knew for a fact that Atlas was an early-stage Transcendent Realm martial artist. On the other hand, Felix was just a martial artist in the Physical Refinement Realm. The outcome was already obvious.The Maximus family would prefer to bring Felix with them without laying a finger on him. After all, it wasn't their intention to offend those from Harmony Clinic, as that would mean insulting most alchemists in the industry. That might impede the growth of the Maximus family members in martial arts.Dickson's prior analysis was on point—even if he got into a fight with the Maximus family, they wouldn't kill him. The most they would do was to paralyze him so they could take Felix.If they killed Dickson, they would get into huge trouble with Harmony Clinic."Do you agree with that, Felix?" Dickson seemed exasperated after

Dickson nodded and started to pick his nose. "Oh, this feels great. Well, an alchemist can help, but we have a problem. There are ten alchemists who can cultivate pills for the early-stage and middle-stage Transcendent Realm martial artists. It'll get harder from middle-stage to late-stage—only five alchemists are qualified. "For now, only Bern and Delilah have the ability to cultivate pills needed for mastering the Transcendent Realm. Even then, their success rates are dismally low—out of ten attempts, they're lucky if they manage to produce two pills."Huh? That sounded really incredulous."As an alchemist, you need to understand that the rarer the pills, the more precious the herbs required. Gathering the ingredients for one attempt at cultivation takes a lot of time, effort, and emeralds. Factor in the slim success rate, and you might walk away empty-handed. That's why so many have failed in their quest to conquer the Transcendent Realm."Felix sank deep into his thoughts. T

"Mr. Marlow, do you not like to drive or sit in cars?" Felix asked with curiosity while he and Dickson ran."I don't like that stuff. It's too high-profile. I prefer traveling by foot, unless I'm traveling in a group. And you should call me Dicky or Dickson instead. 'Mr. Marlow' sounds a little odd."Felix replied, "Sure. How about just 'Marlow' then?"Dickson gave Felix a funny look. "Interesting. Usually, those who are close to me call me Dicky or Dickson. But you're going for Marlow. Anyway, it doesn't matter to me."In reality, Felix felt rather awkward calling someone Dicky, due to its association with the modern slang."By the way, Marlow, where's the headquarters of Harmony Clinic?""It's at the top of Sumera Mountain—rich in herbs. We've gotten the green light from the royalty to build our clinic on that mountain. In fact, we have the right to the entire mountain!"Felix was surprised to learn that Harmony Clinic's headquarters was not set in Martial City. Still, if Harm

Delilah said, "Your words have brought back memories. That old man is cunning and sly. While I don't consider him a real threat, removing him won't be a simple task. "He comes from the royal lineage and holds a high position as the general of the city's defense forces. His demise would not go unnoticed by the royal family." Felix was smart, but Delilah's tone hinted that there was more to the story. It seemed like she still had some limitations in Martial City, and there were certain individuals she couldn't risk angering."But don't worry," Delilah reassured. "I can easily transfer him out of North City to ensure your safety while you’re here." With that taken care of, Delilah got down to business. "I've already submitted your application for the Intermediate Alchemy Assessment. It will take place in five days at Harmony Clinic's headquarters. Unfortunately, I won't be able to accompany you. I made a promise to an old friend to refine some pills for him. Your presence has cau

Jeremy was known for his ruthless nature. With a flick of his hand, he sent an invisible force toward Mindy. She had no time to even scream before she collapsed in a pool of blood, her final sound unheard. Despite murdering his own family member, Jeremy acted as though it were no big deal and even managed to force a smile. "You can make one more request," he offered casually. Once again, Felix was reminded of the heartlessness of the inhabitants of Martial City. It was a place where strength equaled power. "Release Laura. From now on, she has no relation with the Larsson family."Jeremy waved his right hand again, and the ropes binding Laura snapped. She landed safely beside Felix. "Let's go," Felix said. With a deep exhale, Jeremy finally relaxed, only to come face-to-face with Jared. "Jeremy, I believe I'm owed an explanation, don't you think?" Jeremy narrowed his eyes at Jared. If this guy weren't the son of a high-ranking general in the city defense forces, he would ha
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 978
At that moment, Felix became aware of Jared's presence and realized the situation. Jared rose from his seat as well. "Felix, I had a feeling you'd show up to rescue Laura. "That's why I informed the head of the Larsson family beforehand, anticipating your attempt to deceive them by posing as Madam Goddard's disciple."Laura, who was in the process of getting hung, desperately wanted to say something. However, she had been silenced and could not utter a single word. The look in her eyes displayed a silent plea for Felix to leave as soon as possible and not to worry about her. If they both stayed, they would never be able to escape. However, Felix ignored her and remarked coldly, "So, you don't believe me?"Jeremy's eyes narrowed as if he were staring at something beneath him. "So today you're Madam Goddard's disciple," he scoffed. "What about tomorrow? Will another kid come along and claim to be Mr. Earnhart's disciple? And what about the day after that? It's absurd, and here

The locations of Harmony Clinic and the Larsson residence were in completely opposite directions. Jared speculated that at Felix's speed, there was no way he could make it to both places in time to save Laura. So, once Felix made his move, he was certain to go to the Larsson residence. To guarantee the success of this plan, Jared threatened one of Andrew's subordinates with life or death, forcing them to block all signals in the area surrounding Harmony Clinic.After all, Andrew held a high-ranking position in the city defense forces and had the power to make this happen. In Martial City, one of the four major cities under the rule of the royal family alongside Imperial City, various families held power and influence. However, they are all subordinate to the royal family, and their city defense forces are under their command.As time went by, in a courtyard belonging to the Larsson family in North City, Laura hung from a rope. Though she didn't show any visible signs of physical
