Chapter 759

Author: Dreamy Fire
"You must have gone crazy from selling flower wreaths," Felix said bluntly, his words sharp and disdainful. Billy wasn't just acting arrogantly. He was downright annoying.

Billy didn't care at all. Instead, he wore a serious expression and continued to say, "You'll suffer if you don't listen to my advice. Don't you care about that woman you treat like your little sister? Up until now, aside from the huge sum Queenie gave, have I ever lied to you about anything?"

Felix frowned slightly as he carefully examined Billy's words. He took out his phone and dialed Melissa's number. No matter what, he needed to confirm the situation. So, he switched to speaker mode.

The phone rang for a long time, and just as Felix began to feel uneasy, she finally answered.

"Felix?"

"Where did you go? Why the rush?"

"Hey, I didn't do it on purpose. There's really something urgent I need to handle. I'll be back in a few days. Don't miss me, okay?"

Felix shot a disdainful glance at Billy before giving Mel

    "I don't want to repeat myself, so get out!" Felix yelled.A wave of energy surged forward, causing Tom and his men to stagger back, retreating all the way outside the clinic."Boss!" one of his subordinates called out in fear. Tom's face darkened. "Make the call!" he ordered.He didn't dare to act rashly. Who would have thought that a doctor running a clinic would be a martial arts master? If they rushed in again, they wouldn't gain anything and might even end up getting hurt. He wasn't stupid.Noticing the flower wreath shop next to the clinic, Tom snapped his fingers. "Buy ten wreaths and put them in front of the clinic. Since this incident has blown up, let's make sure everyone knows that Tom is back.""Yes!"After the ten wreaths were placed, one of his subordinates suddenly rushed out, looking very distressed. "Boss, the shopkeeper is asking for 50,000 dollars for the ten wreaths."Tom thought he had heard wrong. Already in a bad mood, he immediately stormed into the wre

    Turning his head, Felix noticed two Rolls-Royce Phantoms. The vehicles immediately attracted the attention of all the pedestrians."Can't get through?" he muttered to himself, thinking that these were probably reinforcements called by Tom. Without any further thought, he entered the clinic, not wanting to be the center of attention outside.Sure enough, as he entered, the two cars stopped just outside the clinic, and bodyguards wearing white gloves stepped out to open the back doors. Out came a woman.She was petite but had long legs, and her black, tight-fitting outfit added a touch of allure. Billy, who had originally intended to get back to the wreath business, took one glance at the woman and decided not to return to his flower shop.The woman walked into the clinic alone. When Felix saw her, he immediately realized, just like Billy, that she wasn't from Dragonia."Are you an Astorian? Can I help you?"The woman stopped and greeted Felix respectfully. "Dr. Zeller, my name i

    "Get lost! If you're that concerned, go take care of it yourself," Felix said.Seeing Felix about to leave, Billy quickly picked up the box and put it away."I'm here to give you a piece of advice. The auction starts the day after tomorrow. Don't cause any trouble! Let's put it this way. You should know about the Golden Prime Auction, right?"Since it was about something important, Felix sat back down. "Yeah, and what's the connection?""Exactly! They're backed by the same force. The Golden Prime Auction is publicly known as the grandest auction in Dragonia. It attracts a lot of important people every time. "But the auction happening the day after tomorrow is for things that cannot be sold in the open. The items range widely, and many of them are even illegal."The fact that both were backed by the same group made Felix curious. "Are you planning to tell me who's behind it?"Billy nodded. "Yeah. Otherwise, I'd be worried you'd get yourself into trouble. Both these auctions are

    Felix stood frozen, looking at Xena in disbelief. If it weren't for his senses, he would have thought someone was impersonating her.The matter of the Dragonspine had been known only to Gerald and his fellow apprentices. No one else knew about it. The only outsider who knew about it was the mysterious Billy. No one else could possibly know about it.Yet, Xena had just uttered the word "Dragonspine". How could he not be shocked?"It seems it's true, then."From Felix's expression, Xena got her confirmation and gestured for him to sit down. "You don't need to make excuses to pretend because I don't know much, either. In fact, I don't even know what the Dragonspine really is."Felix let out a bitter laugh and sat down on the couch. "Xena, I really can't tell you anything, but how do you know about it?"Xena pointed at the air and said, "I was told by the higher-ups because the headquarters has a piece of the Dragonspine."What? The headquarters had a piece of Dragonspine? Felix w

    "Mira, is that you?" Felix asked."Yes. I also learned by chance that the headquarters has a piece of the Dragonspine. After thinking it over, I realized the only way to obtain it was through this method. You won't blame me, right?"Mira was the legendary chief commander at the headquarters, so it made sense that she could obtain such information and take action accordingly."I won't blame you. After all, there really was no other way."Mira continued, "Although it's only for half a year, you need to be prepared. Over the past year, Dragonia has had many unexplainable strange occurrences. Ordinary people don't know because the headquarters has suppressed the information to avoid panic. "During your six-month term, the headquarters will definitely exploit your full value. Any task assigned will require your utmost focus. Do you understand?"Hearing the concern in Mira's voice, Felix was deeply grateful."Yes. Don't worry, Mira. Since I made a promise, I will definitely do my bes

    Felix's neck veins bulged, and he glared at Tom with fury, wanting nothing more than to flay him alive."You beast! These are five lives you're responsible for!" To frame him, five people had to die. If the situation hadn't escalated so much, he would've rushed at Tom without a second thought.However, Tom just sat down casually, a smile still plastered on his face. "Indeed, five lives were lost, but what does that have to do with me? Didn't you hear them? They said it was you, the quack doctor, who killed them. You sure know how to make wild accusations."Crossing his legs, Tom's smile slowly faded. "Aren't you quite something? I told you not to save Kurt, but you didn't listen. You even used a bit of your martial power to push me out. "Now, do you see the consequences of provoking me? Soon, the families of these five will come, and then we'll see what you do."Felix stood there, stunned. For the first time, he encountered someone as ruthless as Tom, who didn't even give the v

    "Look at these origami figures. Don't they look so real? Are there any other shops that have the same quality?" Billy remarked.More than a dozen origami figures were sitting in Floral Wreath Boutique. Tom instinctively glanced over and was shocked. The origamis seemed to be alive! Some appeared to blink at him, and some even took a step forward. Even though it was broad daylight and the outside bustled with noise, his scalp tingled with fear.He turned around and was about to run away when three origamis blocked him. Billy's words rang in Tom's ears."You were still in diapers when I started playing! Send over 500 thousand dollars in cash tomorrow. Otherwise, I'll send origami figures to your house and play with you every day!" Billy threatened.Tom repeatedly gulped, finally realizing that Billy was definitely not someone he could provoke. Billy was someone who had surpassed being a martial artist! Regardless of whether these origami figures were real or an illusion, Tom deci

    "What? Who do you think you are? You can see the Warlord of Thunder with just an ID? What an absolute joke!" Landon bellowed.As Landon complained, Axel had already taken the ID from Felix. His eyes widened in an instant, and he saluted to Felix."Sir!" When Landon saw this, he snatched the ID away in disbelief. His hands began to tremble, and he quickly saluted before returning the ID respectfully."I apologize, sir!" Damn, Felix was actually a Dragon Knight! An admiral-level Dragon Knight at that! His title was much higher than theirs."Notify the Warlord of Thunder, and I'll go with you. Don't worry. I won't make this difficult for you."Almost as soon as Felix was taken to the car, Luna arrived. When she saw Felix leaving, she didn't get out of the car. Her frown grew deeper, and she said coldly, "Go back! I want to know what happened to Dr. Zeller as quickly as possible!"Felix had finally agreed to treat her grandfather. However, now that he had been taken away, this wa

    "Felix, don't worry! You're on an official mission to Martial City. That scoundrel is an unexpected problem, but I'll ensure your safety," the Protector reassured Felix as he handed Felix two tokens.The Protector explained, "The red token is essential for entering and leaving Martial City. Without it, no one can safely pass through the barriers. Each token only works once before turning to dust, so guard it carefully. They're extremely rare and valuable, even within Martial City." Felix nodded in understanding as he accepted the tokens, but his attention was drawn to the yellow one. It was round and slightly mysterious."The yellow token wasn't something I originally planned to give you," the Protector continued. "It's not ideal for your growth, but given what just happened, I want to ensure your safety above all else.""If that old man from the Elders' Council comes after you again, don't hesitate to crush this token. Someone will come to your aid immediately."Felix was unsure

    "Wait over there. They won't dare touch you," Felix told Xena while maintaining a calm expression as he faced the six Council Elders.In the past, he might have been less confident against these formidable opponents. Each of them was strong enough to challenge those above their level, which was precisely why they had earned their positions as Council Elders.Having dealt with Gage before, Felix knew his cunning and temperament were terrifying. All that made him an exceptionally dangerous adversary."Felix, are you sure about this?" Xena asked worriedly, wondering how the Elders' Council dared to act so boldly and who this Grand Elder was that could hold off the Protector."Just go," Felix replied, his tone firm.Gage took a step forward, his expression cold. "I know you're keeping your cool because you have the Lone Paragon on your side, but relying on something like that won't change your fate." Felix smirked. "Skip the speech. You chose this location because you plan to hide i

    "Let's go," Xena said.After getting off the plane, Felix got into a car with Xena behind the wheel. She was driving herself, with no one else accompanying them."In the backpack, you'll find everything you need for Martial City. I'll explain each item as you take them out," she said.Felix grabbed the backpack from the back seat and opened it, finding only a few items inside.Xena explained, "This phone only works in Martial City. Due to the barriers, it can't connect to satellites, but it works perfectly within the city. It's unregistered too, so you don't need to worry about being tracked."The device was more of a chunky block than a modern phone. It had an archaic feel and a tiny screen that did not support video calls or other advanced features."What's this card?" Felix asked as he pulled out another item—a card that looked like an emerald-green bank card. The only difference was that it appeared to be made of emerald, with elegant swirls of pale green throughout."That's

    Felix felt a chill ran down his spine when Billy said he was haunted."A master practitioner has cursed you," Billy explained between bites. "They're so skilled that I couldn't even sense it when you first walked in."Felix checked himself but felt nothing unusual. "I feel fine, though. What kind of curse are we talking about?"Instead of answering right away, Billy casually continued eating. "There are many types of curses, both in Dragonia and abroad. From what I can tell, this is the work of a foreign expert."He paused to take another bite, then added, "These masters are especially dangerous. All they need is something you keep close to you, and they can attack you remotely. From the looks of it, they've already started." Felix jumped up in alarm. "Stop joking around! I don't feel anything, and the Dragonspine isn't even reacting!"Billy smirked. "That's because your soul is unusually strong. What's strange, though, is how much it's grown in such a short time. I mean, the th

    Time flew by quickly, and the one-month deadline was suddenly upon them. Xena would come for Felix tomorrow, making this his last night in town. There was no grand farewell party since he had already said his goodbyes to everyone. Ronan and Melissa were getting along well, planning to travel the world together after Felix's departure. From the looks of it, they were not far from making their relationship official.Felix definitely approved of this match, as Ronan was a genuinely good person. The man was honest and reliable, someone worthy of trust. As for Jack and the others, they had called to say they would be laying low for a while, which had become somewhat routine by now.That night, Felix and Billy were sitting in Floral Wreath Boutique, where a few dishes and bottles of wine were on the table."Honestly, eating and drinking in a place like this gives me the creeps," Felix said, glancing around.Billy waved him off, unconcerned. "You're overthinking it. Look at me—am I not

    "Ha! I can't believe you actually got up! Think you can handle it?" Averill doubled over with laughter.Karina was also chuckling, and Felix finally realized they had been teasing him. He shook his head and said, "Alright, you two, enough with the jokes."…The next day, Felix met with Kayden, the powerful Fish Man, on the outskirts of Gray City."Here's the Twin Fish Cauldron. I trust everything is in order?" Felix asked, and after carefully examining the artifact, Kayden smiled with satisfaction."Indeed, this is the genuine Twin Fish Cauldron. You truly delivered on your promise," Kayden confirmed.Felix understood why someone as powerful as Kayden had been hesitant to retrieve it himself—he feared the founding master of Skyward Guild. "And here's your Dragonspine," Kayden said as he handed over the item, making Felix smile. It was refreshing to have a straightforward exchange without any hidden agendas.…That evening, Melissa executed Shane, the imprisoned Fish Man. She

    Several minutes later, Terry returned, holding a small bronze cauldron. He also brought along two young individuals—a man and a woman."Dragon Knight, this is my disgrace of a son, and that woman is his lover. Everything started because of this little bitch. I'll make things right with you today."As soon as he finished speaking, Terry raised a hand and pointed at the young woman. She collapsed into a pool of blood before she could even react."Please, spare my son's life," Terry pleaded, his voice trembling with desperation.Terry was truly out of options. Even the founder of his guild had given up trying to handle Felix, so what could he possibly do? If Felix continued to grow stronger, Terry knew his own fate would be sealed one random night. "I'm not unreasonable. We'll proceed as you suggested," Felix responded in a measured tone. If not for Xena's warning about outside threats, he might not have been so lenient. Besides, the Skyward Guild's strength made them valuable na

    A terrifying aura spread from a distant building, instantly enveloping the entire Skyward Guild. Terry and his followers were overjoyed, knowing their Founding Master had been monitoring the guild's safety even during meditation."How long has it been since someone dared to cause trouble in the Skyward Guild? Such audacity!" A powerful voice echoed across the grounds, brimming with authority. Even without appearing in person, the sheer presence of this unseen force was overwhelming."Felix, you've brought this upon yourself!" Terry snarled through gritted teeth, his injuries making his anger even more palpable.The other guild members began shouting, their earlier caution forgotten. "So what if you're a Dragon Knight? You struck first, and that gives us every right to retaliate. The headquarters won't say a word against us!"Someone else growled, "Do you really think that being at the Boneforging Realm makes you invincible? Wait until you face our Founding Master!"

    Terry's only comfort was Felix's status as a Dragon Knight, believing it would keep him in check. However, Stamford could not help but laugh bitterly—how could they expect restraint after sending assassins after Felix?"Terry!" a voice suddenly boomed throughout the Skyward Guild, causing all the training disciples to freeze in curiosity."Who dares to cause trouble in my Skyward Guild?" Terry growled as he vanished on the spot, with Stamford following close behind.When they reached the front courtyard, they found Felix standing there, which immediately dampened their aggressive stance. Terry asked diplomatically, "Ah, if it isn't the honorable Dragon Knight. What brings you to our Skyward Guild?" Felix smirked at the gathered martial arts masters. "Call me Felix or Dragon Knight; I don't care—I'm here for justice."Terry's greeting was not lost on Felix. Using the title "Dragon Knight" was a calculated move to tie him to the headquarters and make things more complicated.
