"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

All of a sudden, Luna walked into Tranquil Clinic. "Dr. Zeller," she called out.Felix glanced up and asked, "Did you solve the issue?"From the look in her eyes, he could tell something had happened."It was just a small favor since I happened to know you. I wanted to bring over the person who framed you, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to. Please forgive me."Felix smiled. "It's alright. You've helped me this time, so I owe you a favor."If this were the old Felix, he wouldn't have cared. But now, he had another identity—an admiral.The deeper and longer his entanglement in this, the worse it would become. Thus, Luna's help this time was of deep significance."Dr. Zeller, that isn't right. I'll owe you a lot if you're willing to treat my grandfather. How can you owe me one?"Felix stood up and said seriously, "Let's put it this way. The things your grandfather did in Dragonia are worth my help. Even if I were to thank you on behalf of the children in the slums, I still owe y
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 769
When Luna saw Felix's expression, her face reddened. She knew he misunderstood the situation."Dr. Zeller, I… I want you to test my lungs first to see if they match my grandfather's," she explained.Felix was immediately embarrassed. He had really misunderstood her intentions. Perhaps the influence of pornography had lingered too deeply in his mind. Under such circumstances, any man would've jumped to the wrong conclusion."Even if they match, what will your grandfather think when he wakes up?" Felix countered.Luna looked at her grandfather lying on the bed. Her expression was doting and full of love."He's taken care of me since I was a child. It's time I repaid him! You can do it, and I'll take care of anything else that comes after."Upon hearing this, Felix stood up and stopped Luna from taking off her shirt. "Alright, I can confirm it by taking your pulse. I won't need the silver needles."After a while, Felix's expression brightened up."You know what? You two are th

Ginny was naturally present as well, and she spoke up at that moment. "Mr. Goldstein, no one wanted to see Justus die like that. But why did you bring your people to Longstone residence? Are you suggesting that his sudden death has something to do with us?"Joaquin's expression grew darker as he looked at her. He blamed Ginny for this, thinking that none of this would have happened if she had just agreed earlier. And now, they couldn't even determine the cause of death."No connection? That doctor from your household, Felix Zeller—he's the one responsible for Justus' death."Right then, someone spoke up from the crowd. "That's him! That's Felix Zeller!"Felix, who had been calmly sitting in a chair, finally saw Wagner standing among them. And in that moment, everything made sense."Wagner? You've gotten quite bold, huh?" Gras sneered.Wagner flinched at Gras's words, but remembering that he now had the Goldsteins backing him, he stiffened his spine and stood tall. "Cut the crap

In Cloud City, there were a few noble families. Nonetheless, behind the polite smiles, tensions surged. Infiltrating each other's estates with spies had practically become a tradition. While they rarely uncovered major secrets, the information they did gather always gave them a head start.So when the news broke, Gras didn't doubt it for a second. He jumped to his feet, furious. "This is outrageous! Their son dies, and somehow it's the Longstone family's fault?"Ryker looked just as puzzled, agreeing that the accusation made no sense.But Felix let out a quiet, weary sigh. "Mr. Longstone, I'm afraid this is probably my fault. I'm a doctor, and I've gotten a bit of attention lately. After they failed to determine the cause of Justus' death, and given our meeting earlier today, they likely saw an opportunity to drag your family into the mess." Gras's expression darkened, knowing that Felix wasn't wrong. After all, doctors could also be poisoners, and plenty of martial artists had fa

It was clear someone had said something to Justus. Otherwise, this situation wouldn't have escalated to this point.Felix said calmly, "It was a standard therapeutic massage technique, and I was blindfolded the entire time. Does that explanation satisfy you? Or would you rather find someone else capable of treating Ms. Longstone—I'll gladly step aside if you can."Justus sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. "Cut the crap, Felix. Don't act like I don't know exactly what's going through your head. Ginny's the heiress of the Longstone residence—Gras's precious jewel. Everyone knows that marrying her is like securing the entire household. Don't tell me that thought never crossed your mind.""It didn't," Felix said simply.Unfortunately, that answer was never going to satisfy Justus. He snarled, "Listen up, boy! I'm giving you three days to get the hell out of the Longstone residence. If you don't, you won't even get the chance to regret it. Everyone else might be afraid of Gras—but I

As Wagner watched Justus explode in rage, he felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction. With what he'd just uncovered, there was no need to exaggerate—it was already explosive enough on its own.After all, Justus' future fiancée was touched in that kind of intimate way by a young, healthy doctor. Any man with a spine would lose it."But Justus," Wagner added with a smirk. "Didn't Felix just get publicly praised by the Green King?"Cloud City wasn't that big. Anyone with any influence had been keeping close tabs on Green King Manor—especially with the mystery man who walked out of Desolated Lands involved. So, the news of Felix being rewarded had already spread far and wide.Justus clenched his jaw. "So what? It's just a flash in the pan. If he was truly skilled, the Green King would've kept him. But as long as he hasn't climbed into the Green King's inner circle, I can crush him whenever I want."Wagner's grin widened. That was exactly the attitude he needed. If Justus had shown

The moment the Flame Monarch mentioned the Healer Sage, the Green King's expression shifted noticeably. "So the Sage really was living out there in seclusion... No wonder. Flame Monarch, does this mean you've taken a liking to Felix?"But the Flame Monarch waved his hand dismissively. "There's no need for that."That response made the Green King secretly rejoice. If the Flame Monarch didn't intend to recruit Felix, then he understood why—and that was perfect. It meant the opportunity to take Felix under his own wing was wide open.The night passed quietly. Felix stood beside Christopher's bedside, noticing the man's breathing had grown steady and stable.At this point, the herb had run its course and was no longer effective. But what was left inside Christopher's soul—a strange, lingering force—was exactly what Felix had hoped for.Christopher was alive but completely unconscious. The remaining energy had no regenerative properties, which meant he'd likely never wake again. For Fe

Felix wasn't the least bit surprised by the Flame Monarch's reaction, but he still feigned confusion. "Flame Monarch, I'm sorry... but I don't understand. What do you mean by soul-related injuries?"Just from that single line, Felix confirmed what he suspected—Aquamarinus had no concept of soul-based matters. Whether it was training methods or anything else, this realm hadn't yet touched that domain.The Flame Monarch stared at him, pressure radiating from his body. Felix immediately felt his limbs start to tremble under the invisible weight."You don't know? Then how could you claim to treat that man's condition?" Felix calmly pointed toward the herbs laid out on the table. "The force inside him is definitely strange. It triggered a memory... I once sensed something very similar, and it came from within that herb. It was purely instinct—when something feels familiar, there's a chance it might work."The Flame Monarch shifted his gaze to the herb, then said flatly, "Start from th

Felix gave him a direct and honest answer. "As long as I have enough herbs. I can treat him. I won't promise a full recovery, but one thing I can guarantee you is that this man won't die."For now, that was the best possible answer anyone could offer.The Flame Monarch replied, "Good. Begin. As long as you can keep him alive, you'll be handsomely rewarded."It seemed the Flame Monarch already knew something and never truly expected anyone to completely cure Christopher. Preserving his life alone would already be a feat."Flame Monarch, please reconsider!" one of the elderly doctors suddenly cut in, seething with resentment. "This boy is barely grown—how could he possibly possess such remarkable skill in medicine?"The Flame Monarch turned and gave him a cold, mocking glance. "If he can't do it, then can you?"The old man went silent. Perhaps fearing the loss of favor or acting out of sheer pride, he hesitated. Eventually, he found the courage to speak again."I admit I can't, bu
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1529
The Green King's expression changed instantly, and he turned to Felix in a hurry. "Dr. Zeller, please come with me to greet him.""Of course," Felix replied.For anyone in Aquamarinus, getting the chance to see the Flame Monarch up close was like a once-in-a-lifetime dream, and people would probably die happy just for that. Naturally, Felix put on a show of reverence as well, even if he didn't feel it deep down.As they reached the front gate, Felix saw several figures striding toward them with heavy steps. At the front of the group was a towering man, nearly nine feet tall. Even someone as built as Dave looked like a delicate bystander next to him.What stood out the most was his bright crimson hair, which flared upward like flames, making it look like his head was on fire. His facial features were fairly average, but the power behind his gaze radiated pure, undeniable authority.So, this was the Flame Monarch?Felix studied him closely. He suspected the man had cultivated some

According to the rules set by the Flame Monarch, the position of Minor Kings rotated every five years. Those who made outstanding contributions could keep their titles, but anyone who fell short would have to fight for their place all over again.The Green King knew he wasn't particularly strong—he was painfully aware of that. And with the next year marking the fifth year, the pressure was mounting fast. So when Christopher appeared, it felt like fate. If he could heal this man before the Flame Monarch arrived with his elite doctors, the credit would be immense, and his reappointment would be virtually guaranteed. Anyone who had never held a Minor King title wouldn't understand just how many perks came with it. If they did, no one would give it up willingly."I can treat him," Felix said calmly. "But I can't promise a full recovery."The Green King smiled. "Do your best. Even if you can only keep him alive, that alone is worth it."Two doctors before had said that Christopher's b
