Queenie's examination showed she wasn't a martial artist—just an ordinary person. With that confirmed, any lingering doubts were dispelled. After Hexbloom bloomed, it attracted not only ordinary people but also some martial artists, compelling them to touch it subconsciously. It was all so natural that it didn't warrant much suspicion.…The next morning at the clinic, Melissa's mood had visibly brightened, and she was dressed to impress. As long as her attire wasn't overly provocative, Felix had no issue with her choice of clothing."Boss, I had this faint chest pain last night. Shouldn't you take a closer look?" Melissa teased.Without even looking up, Felix replied, "You're fine. Besides, you didn't seem like the kind of woman who would flirt the first time we met."Melissa pouted. "Well, what can I say? You're so amazing. If something goes wrong, I've got no one to rely on. Honestly, I've been thinking of finding myself a solid backing."Felix handed her his mug. "Pour me s

"Felix…" Melissa appeared, her face full of reluctance."Go on. Be good," Felix said.Seeing Billy's smug expression, Melissa huffed and went to make him a cup of coffee. When she returned and handed it to him, Billy brought the cup to his lips, only to pause mid-sip. His lips twitched in disbelief."Girl, does your clinic have an unlimited supply of coffee grounds or something?" he asked, staring at the cup packed so full that it was practically sludge.No sane person would brew coffee like this."Oh, well," Billy said with a shrug, "at least it's made by a pretty lady—still smells nice from her touch."Taking a small sip, Billy finally got to the point. "The highlight of the auction is a very peculiar bone."Felix's eyes flickered for a moment before he smirked. "Are you trying to say that I'm a dog? A bone is supposed to interest me? What a waste of my coffee."Billy chuckled, lowering his voice. "Oh, really? I don't buy it. Someone practicing the Dragons Destroyer technique

"Three years ago, I finally woke up and quit gambling," Darren said, his tone sincere. "The buyer I mentioned, the one offering a billion dollars, was real. But I didn't dare sell it. I was afraid I'd fall back into gambling if I had that kind of money. "And honestly, I feel like I'd be letting my father down."Felix understood now. That buyer must have been tipped off by Derek, who ensured no one would use force against Darren or spread the word. Otherwise, an ordinary man like Darren would've been in serious trouble long ago.It was clear Isabella was hearing this story for the first time as well."Belle," Darren continued, "this is why I'm willing to entrust this million dollars entirely to you. All I need is a monthly allowance for living expenses. No matter how persuasive I might sound, if my gambling addiction resurfaces, at least you'll be there to keep me in check."Isabella was genuinely moved. After all, there weren't many men like him who would hand over such a fortune

Snapping back to his senses, Felix quickly picked up his phone. He was relieved to find it undamaged. Alistair's voice was still on the line."Alistair, I'm here. Go on," Felix said."Mr. Zeller, since you're considered one of the involved parties and also a master healer, Lady Summers has granted you special permission to access the site."Involved party? Special permission? Felix suddenly realized something."Do you suspect it's Skybound Revenant? But that doesn't make sense. Didn't Candace confess? Didn't you handle it?"Alistair's response brought Felix a small measure of relief."When we arrived, there were no signs of Necrobound at the place. Either they got word and relocated beforehand, or the Elder Revenant evolved into a Skybound Revenant earlier than expected.""Understood. I'm heading over now."Whether or not Zara was involved, Felix knew he had to act. If this escalated into a city outbreak, the death toll would be unimaginable.Driving to the village Alistair me

After hearing Alistair's explanation, an image suddenly flashed in Felix's mind."Hold on. I might know an expert in this field. The question is whether he'll agree to help."When Felix glanced at Xena, she immediately understood and, after a brief hesitation, nodded. With dozens already dead, they couldn't afford to delay any longer—who knew how many more lives might be lost?"Fine. Ask him. If he can genuinely help, there will definitely be a reward," Xena assured him.But before making the call, Felix had another question. "What about those elite experts you mentioned earlier? Haven't they been deployed?"Xena sighed. "They've been deployed to key cities. Each one can monitor multiple locations and immediately detect a Skybound Revenant if it appears. The problem is, these revenants might possess intelligence, allowing them to sense danger."They could deliberately target remote, impoverished areas or deep wilderness regions. But those are still living, breathing citizens of D

"Come out and face me if you dare. Otherwise, stop barking like a dog!" Felix snapped.The voice vanished. Felix quickly asked, "Can you tell me what sect Candace exposed?"Alistair remained silent, unwilling to speak. Xena hesitated for a while before using voice transmission to say, "It's Abyssal Surge Sect. But you must keep this to yourself."She chose to confide in Felix because she had absolute trust in him.Felix thought, "Abyssal Surge Sect—the second of the top super sects. Those bastards really have some nerve."He then asked, "So, with no actual evidence, I take it Abyssal Surge Sect is untouched?"Xena sighed in frustration. "Yes. We can't act on Candace's testimony alone. Even if they were a minor sect, we'd still need evidence before taking any steps."Felix sneered. It made sense now why someone would risk reaching out to him via voice transmission, trying to pressure him into fabricating evidence. They knew there was no proof.Even if he told Xena about the

Felix felt speechless. "I said, as long as you're willing to help, in addition to the agreed dojo, you'll also get a chance to dine with Dreamscape."After receiving confirmation, Billy patted his chest and said, "Humph! Don't insult me with these rewards. As a citizen, cooperating is my duty. Just leave it to me!""Damn it, Billy!" Felix thought, trying to suppress his irritation."Time to work my magic and track down that Skybound Revenant," Billy suddenly said. "Everyone, leave! Phoenix Warlord and Felix, you two stay."At Alistair's command, everyone quickly evacuated, leaving only the three of them in the open space.Felix waved his right hand, sending out a wave of energy to ensure there were no living people around and that the village was empty before signaling Billy to begin.He was being cautious, worried that a member of Abyssal Surge Sect might still be nearby. But he was probably overthinking it—after all, even the boldest person wouldn't risk staying here for too lo

Felix's expression changed, but he still smiled and said, "It is a large sect. It's a good thing."Although he said that, he thought, "Fuck! They investigated this so quickly. Are they treating me as an enemy already?"To be honest, he felt as though he was taking the blame for someone else. From the beginning to the end, this matter had nothing to do with him."Why are you glaring at me?" Billy ran his finger through his buzz cut and opened the mirror. "Did I get more handsome?"Felix wanted to cry. Billy was the one who found the Skybound Revenant, so why did Abyssal Surge Sect shift the hatred to Felix?…Around 9:00 am, Felix brought Melissa to a hotel's banquet hall, where weddings in Canraville were held. George, Ryan, Madeline, Luke, Wendy, and the others had arrived. They were all people Felix knew."This is my sister, Melissa."Upon arriving there, Melissa acted quite shy. "Nice to meet everyone."Then, George and Ryan fought to give Melissa a seat."Melissa, sit her

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
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 976
It was clear to Felix that Laura was struggling to live within the Larsson family. Despite not sharing her troubles with him, he could sense her discomfort from the get-go. It was telling that she didn't even have skilled bodyguards by her side, especially considering the size and influence of the Larsson family in North City. It was unthinkable for them not to provide proper protection for their direct kin.Mindy said, "I am here to inform you that Laura has been confined to the water dungeon due to her involvement in an inappropriate relationship with a member of our household staff. She will face execution in 30 minutes. "If you have already had any relations with her, consider yourself fortunate. It is acknowledged that she possesses considerable physical attractiveness. However, if not, then it is indeed unfortunate for you."Mindy left without saying another word. Felix's expression became stern and disapproving. It was absurd to accuse Laura of having an affair with a me

Bern stood up and pointed a trembling finger at Felix. "No one stop me! I'm going to beat this little show-off into a pulp right now!"However, no one even attempted to stop him! Delilah was laughing wholeheartedly, and Natalie was dumbfounded.This was Felix's first time refining an intermediate pill; he not only succeeded in three attempts but also made six pills? It was so terrifying that it was hard to describe. Yet, throughout all this, he was more worried about the outcome."Sit down, Bernie! You know nothing at all! My disciple has high ambitions. And here I thought he was as easily satisfied as you!"Delilah's eyes sparkled with joy. This was indeed her beloved disciple. She was also surprised by the success rate of his first intermediate refinement."Felix, making six pills on your first try has already broken the record of the alchemists of Martial City! If you don't believe me, you can ask old Bernie here how many pills he had made on his first try."Bern calmed down,

"You truly hit the nail on the coffin, girl! Felix is a perfect match for you. If he doesn't get the Ice Dragon furnace, who else would?" Delilah exclaimed.Huh? A couple? Natalie's expression quickly changed. Her? Coupled with that pervert? That was absolutely impossible!"Alright, alright, Nattie. Since Delilah is asking for it for once, I cannot refuse. As for whether you get with him or not, that's for you youngins to decide. We won't care about the matchmaking," Bern said with a chuckle.Immediately, a silver-white furnace appeared. There were two dragons carved on each side—a total of four dragons. On the silver surface of the furnace, the dragons truly looked like they were real. "I've lifted the restrictions on it. Now, let's allow Felix to try." The smile on Delilah's face grew even wider. "Ah, you old man, you're still so kind. Let's wait until he comes out before letting him try it. He's refining the Breath Concealment pill currently."Bern nodded. "Alright. Then let

In the end, Delilah still chose not to hold a ceremony to accept him as a disciple. She knew that Felix was still harboring a secret, and although they were mentor-mentees, they still respected each other.She was very happy that they could acknowledge each other as mentor-mentees in public without having to hide it anymore. Soon, Felix went to the secret room in Harmony Clinic to try the intermediate refinement process for the first time. Meanwhile, Atlas had already contacted an elder of the family."Herbert, I just received news from the spy at Harmony Clinic. Felix Zeller had just been accepted as Delilah's disciple!"On the other end, Herbert wondered for a long time before replying, "This complicates things. If he was merely a genius at Harmony Clinic, your earlier assumptions would've been right. "But since Felix was accepted as Delilah's disciple, this is a little difficult to deal with! I can't guarantee anything—but two things are certain. First, Harmony Clinic will st

"Impressive! No wonder you're someone who practices Dragons Destroyer. If your family hadn't practiced it before, I would've been shocked by your terrifying martial arts talent. Haha! "This is just another benefit of having the true Dragonspine. Otherwise, how could you reach the Physical Refinement Realm so fast?" Atlas laughed.Felix shook his head again. "Is it necessary to say such things to comfort yourself? I can practice the Dragons Destroyer. I think that speaks for itself."Atlas's smile immediately vanished with those words. "Well, whether you want to or not, you'll come with me today! A mere Physical Refinement Realm martial artist means nothing to me!" "Alright, then let's see if you're able to make me go with you," Felix said as he stood up. The shutter door was pulled aside just as they were about to fight. "Two grown men with the door closed in broad daylight? What are you two doing in here?"Atlas turned around fiercely and was about to angrily spit out the wor
