The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 71
Warren's roar was just as Felix imagined. After all, Sasha had been abducted by Ironhulk in the middle of the night. How could her family be unbothered?"Uncle Warren, Sasha's safe. I'm sending her home now," Felix said."I'll be waiting!" Warren boomed. Felix could tell that Warren was genuinely furious this time. Felix also clearly knew that Sasha had been abducted precisely because of him.When they arrived at Silverwood, Nattie was in tears. "Sasha!"Felix placed Sasha on the couch and said, "She's fine. She just passed out."At least Sasha wasn't tortured—this was the only thing that reassured Felix."You animal! Get lost! You're nothing but trouble, and you've even dragged our family into this. Warren and I were beaten up, and all you did was a simple bandage job. Get out of here!" Nattie demanded.Felix said nothing in reply. He only approached Warren while gazing at him. "Tell me honestly. How have I treated you?" Warren asked."You've treated me as your godson, Uncle

Although the information shocked Warren, he quickly frowned and said, "So what? As Lord Kane's distant relative, he couldn't handle trouble like this and even affected you. "This means that Felix has offended someone far more dangerous and beyond our reach! From now on, Felix no longer has anything to do with our family. This might sound irresponsible, but it's for your safety."After he was done speaking, Warren turned and left. Only he knew whether he genuinely intended to cut ties with Felix."Mom!" Sasha looked helplessly at Nattie, who was still in the bedroom. Reflecting on Felix's actions, Sasha realized that Felix had never deceived or pretended. All of his past actions were absolutely genuine.Just the fact that he was Kane's relative had enabled him to accomplish things easily. Besides, Felix had saved her twice. She had to marry him—how could she wait for other women to throw themselves into his arms?Nattie said, "Sasha, if Felix really is Lord Kane's relative, then l

Completely unbothered, Xena sneered. It seemed that Felix was giving Ted a chance, but it was just Felix's attempt to involve her and rid himself of these troubles once and for all.He was just a reckless brute who knew martial arts. He should've evaluated his own capabilities before acting impulsively.Now, the damage was done, and people were starting to take revenge. Only then did Felix realize the danger. How ridiculous!So what if he was a martial artist? Perry's Golden Chamber of Commerce had developed significantly over the years with Xena's hidden assistance. They could easily take Felix down by relying solely on themselves.Besides, Felix definitely didn't qualify to pursue her if he couldn't even get past Ted.…In Sapphire Paragon, a high-end restaurant in Avesburgh, Sabrina was having lunch with Lawrence Schneider. He was a plump, middle-aged man.Suddenly, his expression changed as he received a phone call. He quickly wiped his mouth and said, "Babe, go ahead with

Not wanting to be deemed as unreasonable, Sabrina crossed her arms and coldly spoke, "Fine, then. It's better now that you're here. This bottle of wine worth 20 thousand dollars was shattered thanks to this man right here."Mr. Schneider had it stored in your restaurant—you can verify this easily."Upon her words, Tim understood that the wine couldn't be fake—any wine had to be authenticated before storage at Sapphire Paragon. Otherwise, if the staff had damaged it, how could the compensation be settled if the guest merely stated any amount?A card appeared before Tim as he looked toward Felix. Felix said, "Any issues with you taking care of things? I'm not wasting another word with this woman."Sabrina rolled her eyes. "Who do you think you are? How shameless to ask someone else to handle matters for you."However, Tim's eyes widened in extreme shock the next moment. Oh, dear! Was that a Golden Card? Unbelievable! A VIP had come to dine here."Our dearest VIP, I sincerely ap

Wendy was already nervous. Although she had feelings for Felix, she was afraid to offend him too much. Now that Hugo had suddenly appeared, she quickly stood up."Hugo, what brings you here?"She was rather unhappy with Hugo's sudden intrusion. Nevertheless, he had contributed to treating Bernard. Hence, Wendy still had to show some gratitude.Hugo regained his composure and forced a smile. "I heard you're dining here, so I came to have a look. Did I interrupt anything?"Felix understood that there was more to his words, but he remained unbothered. After all, nothing was going on between him and Wendy. Even if there was something between them, Felix wasn't one to care about others' opinions."Indeed, it's a bit inconvenient right now. I'm having a meal with my friend."Damn it! Hugo wondered if Felix was trying to chase him away.Though he still had a smile plastered on his face, his gaze toward Felix became icier. "I shall not interrupt your meal, then. Since you and Wendy are

Inferno's brows twitched as he sneered, "Hah! I must've underestimated your abilities. Interesting that you could find out that Nocturno's my brother. What a shame, though—why does it matter?"He had come here with a simple objective, which was to capture the villa's owner and interrogate them to find out who killed Nocturno. Even brief descriptions would be enough for him to deduce the culprit. After all, only a few people were capable of killing him."Are you belittling me?" Xena's strong presence surged. After becoming the goddess of war, she paid more attention to her ego. She wouldn't tolerate such an attitude from others."Xena Summers, my brother came to you just to savor the feeling of sleeping with the goddess of war. Even he had dared to do so—do you think you're a match for me?""What about me?" a voice interrupted Inferno. Chain Asura appeared before him."You must be the Asura from the headquarters! You seemed well-prepared, but what a shame that all of you have u

"Please save her, Mr. Zeller." Chain Asura knew who Felix truly was. Naturally, Felix was the most suitable one to treat Xena at that moment.Yet, Felix simply shook his head. "He didn't intend to kill her—that blow was to just make her pass out. Her convulsions are due to her own physical state. She'll be fine after a while."Chain Asura was shocked. Felix clearly learned his medical skills from the miracle doctor, Gerald. How remarkable of him to know what was going on at just a glance. But why did Inferno leave Xena alive?"Also, someone's coming."Upon hearing this, Chain Asura quickly turned toward Xena. Sure enough, an emergency call button was flashing, signaling for the Phoenix Legion to send support. It seemed that the button was triggered right after Xena had been struck.Felix didn't plan to leave since this was his home. Xena's condition was something he had discovered during her previous treatment. It wasn't dangerous as of now, but it could pose a threat in the fut

"Xena, don't think too much. Inferno is dead, and Chain Asura has taken his body to report back to the headquarters. He says that you deserved half of the credit. All you have to do now is to rest up."Rest? Xena got out of bed straight away. Her mind became increasingly muddled.Inferno was dead? And killed by Chain Asura? Impossible—she remembered everything clearly before she was struck.Even when she and Chain Asura had teamed up, they were still at a disadvantage. What was more, he was the only one left after she lost consciousness. How could he have killed Inferno alone?"By the way, there's something else I have to tell you, milady. Felix was also there when we arrived. He had violated military orders and sneaked back to his villa. Should he be punished?"Xena widened her eyes in shock immediately. "Y-You're saying that Felix was there, too?""Fighting all day in my house—how annoying!" The voice echoed in her mind. She remembered it clearly. Someone had said it before s

After returning to Newtown, Felix's life gradually settled into a steady rhythm. Naturally, he informed his family about his upcoming departure.Thankfully, both Cordelia and Nerissa were understanding people. They didn't question him. Instead, they offered their full support and encouragement.Jack, Madeline, and the others also made a trip to Newtown at Felix's invitation. He didn't tell them anything specific, treating the meetup as a casual reunion.Days passed, and with only half a month remaining, the inevitable finally came.Felix was out shopping with Nerissa that day when an SUV suddenly pulled over beside the street. The window rolled down, revealing an ordinary-looking old man behind the wheel, staring directly at Felix."Nerissa, you should head back first," Felix said.Sensing something was up, Nerissa clutched his arm tightly. "Honey, I'm going to call Eloise and the others."They all knew about the existence of the Ancient Sage, so the moment she saw the man, she

Xena didn't look the least bit afraid. Instead, she simply turned her head and smiled."You must be Donna, the S-tier Malevolent Phantom Specter mentioned. You're the one who can peacefully coexist with Felix, right?"That's right. The newcomer was Donna. In fact, when she called Felix earlier, she was already in the city."Yes." Donna nodded.Without hesitation, Xena tossed the Mystical Explosive Orb over."I'm not interested in this thing. It's yours now. Just... don't kill me."Donna's eyes held a curious glint, but she still reached out and caught the orb."It seems like you've really changed a lot, and your instincts are sharp. How'd you know I came to kill you?"Xena stayed silent.Donna turned and walked away. "Whether I kill you or not doesn't make much difference to me. I'll spare you this time. Who knows, maybe someday, you and Felix will clash again."…Later that day, Donna sat across from Felix in a small restaurant."This is where our partnership ends," he sai

Was Felix actually qualified to learn the Phaeron Codex? Why? How was that even possible?As someone who practiced the Red Moon Reincarnation Requiem, the Scarlet Lord had faced all kinds of enemies. Even when he couldn't win, he could usually survive. There was one exception—someone who could cultivate the Phaeron Codex. That was a threat he couldn't possibly contend with.However, the Phaeron Codex was nearly impossible to find, let alone master. On top of that, its cultivation requirements were absurdly high. In all these years, no one had managed to learn it until now. And that someone was Felix?The Scarlet Lord knew then that he wasn't getting out of this alive. Running into Felix was like a rat running into a tiger. No—it was worse.Now suppressed by the Phaeron Projection, he couldn't unleash a single technique. This was the fatal weakness of the Red Moon Reincarnation Requiem. And who would've thought the second person to master the Phaeron Codex would appear at just this
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1485
When Felix first discovered a scout of the Hall of Souls, he noticed red threads inside the man's soul.He'd discussed it with Billy at the time and learned about the existence of the Scarlet Lord and the twisted cultivation method known as the Red Moon Reincarnation Requiem.He just never imagined that the Scarlet Lord would still be alive. Even Gerald had said that anyone who could maintain consciousness while cultivating the Red Moon Reincarnation Requiem was incredibly dangerous and a nightmare to deal with.In other words, the Scarlet Lord might actually be more terrifying than Francis. After all, he'd lived for countless years, too."Haha! What's the matter, Felix the Invincible? Afraid to make the first move?"Specter burst into laughter when he saw Felix just standing there, expressionless and not even trying to fight.To be honest, if it weren't for the Scarlet Lord being here to wipe Felix out personally, Specter wouldn't have had the courage even to try setting a trap.
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1484
When the car came to a stop, Felix saw what looked like a rural guesthouse-style building. Judging by how desolate the surrounding area was, it had been abandoned for a long time."Specter is inside, just ahead. He can sense me, but he won't run," the Phantom said.Felix extended his senses. Inside the compound, he sensed three people. They were all currently in the courtyard.In the blink of an eye, Felix grabbed the man who had led him there and vanished. When he reappeared, they were already inside the guesthouse.Felix sneered. "Xena, you've really fallen far.One of the three people present was Xena.It had only been a month since he'd last seen her, but she had changed so much that he barely recognized her. And it wasn't just her gaze—her outfit alone was enough to make him do a double take.A tiny miniskirt, an extremely revealing top, and a flirtatious expression. If it weren't for the aura confirming her identity, Felix would've thought she was just someone with a simil

Felix could tell the four figures were moving fast. However, their speed didn't impress him at his current level.He even had time to pick up his phone when Donna called."Felix, bad news! I just got solid intel. The others are panicking since you've already killed three S-tier Malevolent Phantoms. Somehow, word got out that you're the one behind it, and now the S-tiers are teaming up to take you down!"Who else leaked it? There was no doubt that it was Specter. Who else would do that?"Oh yeah? Well, you're a little late. I've already run into four of them working together. But this explains a lot. I was wondering why they'd suddenly join forces.""What? You've already run into them?" Donna was stunned. "What will you do? Can you get away?"Felix let out a cold chuckle. "Why run? This is a golden opportunity. Just wait for the good news. Soon, you can get the Mystical Explosive Orb back."According to Donna, once the Mystical Explosive Orb overflowed, it couldn't rebound any mo

"Hmm. Not bad," Francis sneered, lifting his hands again. His face suddenly began to tear apart. In the blink of an eye, another face emerged, twisting grotesquely as it rapidly expanded and launched itself toward Felix.Felix didn't flinch. With the added power of the Phaeron Projection, he finally unleashed his ultimate move."Six Word Mantra—Astral Bloom!"The grotesque face instantly shattered, obliterated into pieces, and redirected toward Francis.A flicker of seriousness passed through Francis's eyes. He clearly recognized how powerful that move was.After all, this technique from the Phaeron Codex was unleashed under the full amplification of Lone Paragon. Its power was nothing to scoff at.When the smoke cleared, Francis's figure looked noticeably dimmer."This isn't over, kid!"Francis retreated, and Felix didn't chase him. He had already thrown out every card he had. Who knew what else that old monster was hiding? It was better to leave it at that.At the very lea

Malachar was dead.Felix's eyelids twitched slightly. Although he and Specter had previously clashed in a fierce and breathtaking battle, there had ultimately been no clear outcome.However, he'd done it on his own this time—he had truly taken down an S-tier Malevolent Phantom. While he didn't think this guy was as strong as Specter, he was still undoubtedly S-tier.After spending a full day and night healing over 20 people and their souls, Felix met up with Donna at the hotel."Next one," he said.Donna let out a wry smile. Even she felt a trace of fear now toward Felix."We're still tracking it down. We should be able to find it soon."Felix closed his eyes. "Let me know when you've found it."…Just like that, a month passed, and Felix had eliminated three Malevolent Phanttal. The terrifying power of the Phaeron Codex and the soul-refining feedback from the Mystical Explosive Orb elevated his soul cultivation once again. He reached the Quantacore Realm, and his overall st

After hanging up, Donna stared off into the distance. She murmured, "Felix, just how far can you really go?"...Late at night, inside a luxury estate, Malachar lounged on a velvet couch in the living room, chain-smoking in silence. He could not shake the restlessness gnawing at him—something felt off, which was strange because he had never experienced anything like this before.Suddenly, Malachar frowned as a blinding silver light burst from his body, flinging away something that had just tried to strike him. He snapped, "Who's there?"He was stunned—someone actually had the guts to try and assassinate an S-tier Malevolent Phantom like him. However, there was no answer, only a terrifying wave of soul-based energy rushing in, instantly alerting him to the situation's severity.His body flared up again, even brighter than before, and he let out a furious roar. "I've got over 20 lives in my hands—if you keep attacking, they'll all die!"That threat seemed to work. Before the attac
