Melissa's call came at just the right moment. Felix answered it. "Felix, there's someone named Tom here. He barged into the clinic and won't get up from his knees. He's desperate to see you. Are you free?" Tom? Felix smirked. That bastard Tom must have exhausted all other options to come crawling back like this. …At the clinic, Tom looked like a shell of his former self. "Please, I'm begging you! Remove it. I'm begging you!" Tom was on the verge of losing his mind. He had never imagined urination could ever become a torture for him. He wanted to pull out that silver needle but feared death too much. The agony was unbearable. Felix ignored him at first. Instead, he looked at Nala, who understood immediately and took Melissa's hand with a smile. She said, "Melissa, let's go shopping." "Sure." As the clinic's shutters came down, Felix took a seat. "Do you know why I agreed to see you?" Tom shook his head frantically, fighting another urge to urinate. "Please, liv

On a rainy night, a coaster bus cruised down the provincial highway. From the outside, all passengers appeared to be sleeping, creating a stark contrast with the pounding rain. Felix was among them, but he was the only one with open eyes. Earlier at the clinic, he had realized that to catch a lion, one had to enter its den. After questioning Tom, he learned that Tom had scheduled a transport for tonight, so he infiltrated the group. Tom was driving, still with a silver needle embedded in him—though a different one. This served two purposes: avoiding suspicion and making sure Tom understood that his relief was still in Felix's hands. The new needle would only cause agony once in a day when urinating. While this lifted most of his nightmare, his fate remained in Felix's control. So, he would not dare do anything rash. Before boarding, everyone had been given a bottle of liquid that quickly induced sleep. These people had not shown any fear. After all, they had each received 10,00

A smirk appeared on Yadier's face."Hah! At least you know your place! As for why we're going to such lengths—first, Felix is Dragonia's master healer. Kill him, and they lose a master who can pass down the knowledge of traditional medicine. "Second, we want to prove that Dragonia's martial arts are child's play compared to our shadowstalking techniques. Now hold that coffee steady. The show's starting." By the bus, Felix had stepped out, finding the scene oddly familiar. Ten fighters in purple combat suits surrounded him, while the driver stood at a distance with a smug grin as if victory was assured. "You must be Yadier's right-hand man. You can tell me where to find him." The driver's smile widened. "How dare you talk big even at death's door? Your confidence must come from being a martial artist, isn't it? How naive. These are ten mid-ranked shadowstalkers from our homeland. You're finished!" Felix's expression turned peculiar as he asked, "Ten mid-ranked shadowstalkers?

Yadier revealed that there was another Steele family overseer for Gray City and its neighbors, named Ollie Steele. But he had returned to Astoria the day before on urgent business. This did not diminish Felix's killing intent. Yadier had revealed plenty, which was befitting his status as a direct family member. He knew almost every operation in Dragonia. Felix compiled information about other labs and personnel, then passed it to Alistair to give to Xena as an anonymous tip. This would be enough to uproot all Steele family operations in Dragonia. But prosecuting them internationally would prove challenging. Evidence aside, cross-border politics made things complicated, so Felix decided to handle this personally. He just hoped Xena would not assign him any missions in the coming days.…"I'm coming with you!" Back at the villa, Nala's eyes showed fierce determination to accompany Felix to Astoria. "Don't complicate things. I'm going there to kill people—quite a few of them.

"Felix?" a familiar voice called out as Felix was leaving the airport. He turned, surprised. "Jack? What are the odds?" It was indeed Jack, who rushed over in a few strides. He laughed and said, "I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. If we hadn't known each other for years, I might've thought you had a twin brother." Meeting Felix anywhere in Dragonia would have been one thing, but they were in Astoria. It was incredible. "What brings you here?" Felix asked."Business! Ms. Kinsley's company is doing well. She established preliminary cooperation agreements here earlier, so I'm just here to finalize things." Felix looked around and teased, "Jack, you're supposed to be a big-shot executive now. Don't you look kind of modest here, traveling alone?" Jack threw an arm around Felix's shoulders with a laugh. "I'm keeping it low-key, you know? Besides, though I hate Astoria, experiencing their unique cultural scene is easier when you're flying solo." The mention reminded F

After about 30 minutes, Jack returned to the private room. "That was quick," noted Felix. Jack grinned. "Of course! Like I said, it's just a formality. Ms. Kinsley handled everything earlier. Actually, with Nessa busy training, I thought I'd explore some local entertainment. "Do you want to join tonight? The company contacts can arrange everything. It's totally safe—no scams." Scams? Felix found it amusing. What scammer would dare try anything with a martial arts master like himself? "This liquor's basically water. Let's make do with it. By the way, I never asked—what brings you to Astoria?" Felix glanced at him with a smirk. He joked, "I got invited by a beautiful Astorian lady." Jack scoffed. "Yeah, right. Cheers!" Just as they raised their glasses, the door slid open. Four burly men sat down rudely on both sides. Judging from their tattoos, they were likely local gang members. Jack frowned and asked, "Can I help you?" They did not respond, either unable or unwill

"Jack!" Felix's voice finally snapped Jack out of his trance. "Let me introduce you. This is my good friend Jack Graham, and this is Luna Starfire." Felix was exasperated. He had called Jack's name three times while the guy just stared at Luna until she grew uncomfortable. "Pleasure to meet you, Ms. Starfire." After barely shaking hands, Jack's expression suddenly changed. He jumped up. "Excuse me. I need to use the restroom." Honestly, Felix was stunned. He could tell exactly what had happened to Jack, but wasn't this a bit extreme? Though considering Jack's obsession with Astorian media when he was younger, perhaps it made sense. The awkward moment was saved by Luna's amused smile. "Your friend's quite entertaining, Dr. Zeller." Entertaining? Felix seized the chance to change subjects. "Tell me about your friend. The case doesn't seem urgent, right?" Luna nodded. "To be direct, her situation is similar to Jenna's." Ah, fertility issues. Indeed, it was not life-threa

Why was Xena asking Felix to return, even though there was no mission for him? Felix frowned. "Why?" "No reason needed! You're a Dragon Knight under my command. When I order you back, you come back!" Such forceful authority would have been impossible before, but now Felix did hold the Dragon Knight title—no disputing that. "I have a patient here, Xena. Don't put me in this position." After a brief silence, Xena's voice softened slightly. "Whether you have a patient or not, I know you well enough. You're in Astoria for something else. I might not ask, but I know plenty. "Felix, this situation is bigger than you realize. It's not something you can handle on impulse. Understand?" Clearly, Xena had guessed Felix was targeting the Steeles. Her "urgent matters" that let him board the plane must have been Alistair's anonymous tip. "I really do have a patient. Sorry." He hung up. After several minutes without another call, Felix relaxed. He only received a text message. It was

So, that was why… Felix couldn't mistrust Donna, either. The Mystical Explosive Orb absorbed a lot of soul essence and helped his soul strength grow. Donna wasn't a fool, and of course, she could sense the growth.So, how could she give it up so easily? Yet, she still said such helpless words. Felix wondered if Dahlia and Karina could help him kill Malachar. As soon as he thought of this, he quickly dismissed the idea.He had seen the horrors of S-tier Malevolent Phantoms with his own eyes. He couldn't involve his fellow apprentices because of this… After all, this was related to life, and it wasn't a small fight."Take the Mystical Explosive Orb back. I won't have any use for it anymore. If I meet Malachar again, it'll just end up being snatched away by him."Donna could barely hold back her conflicted emotions. She was so excited as the orb had recently absorbed a powerful soul just a week ago, and it proved that her choice was right.However, she had to give it all up now. Ho
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1445
Malachar's body trembled slightly. A precious soul essence was actually given to a human by an S-tier Malevolent Phantom? What a waste!Besides, how could an S-tier Malevolent Phantom protect a human like this? This was completely incomprehensible to Malachar!"Once I find out who it is, I'll make sure they'll never stand among other S-tier Malevolent Phantoms! How dare you protect humans!" he spat out angrily, walking toward Anson.He gave Anson a look of contempt before leaving. By this point, Felix was already beyond Malachar's sensing range. Malachar didn't even know where to start if he wanted to chase after Felix. Naturally, he could only wait for his next chance.…As night fell, Felix opened the door to a hotel suite to welcome Donna, who had just arrived. "The S-tier Malevolent Phantom claims to be Malachar, and I figured out that he and Hall of Souls are working together. Maybe because they lost several Black Soul Scouts and the entire laboratory recently, he's despe

Malachar's face showed a hint of mockery. "No way I've mistaken you. I'm being guided to you, after all."Anson stood at a distance, obviously the so-called guide. No one else was around, after all."You've ruined so many Hall of Souls' good plans. So, you deserve to die!" Hall of Souls? Felix's expression turned ugly. He didn't expect Hall of Souls was actually working with S-tier Malevolent Phantoms. Yet, he had seen it with his own eyes this time."I didn't expect an S-tier Malevolent Phantom to act like a pawn for us humans. How admirable!" However, Malachar wasn't offended at all. "You humans are really good with words, but do you really think I'm fooled? Besides, Hall of Souls is 'my' pawn. This relationship will never change—not now and not ever."He moved, just a little. "Alright. I think I've said enough. I'll send you off now."Anson, who stood a little bit away, had no expression on. For him, it was best for Felix to die like this. Otherwise, Anson was sure to be th
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1443
Just as Anson felt confused as to why Felix lashed out, Felix had disappeared from his sight."Huh? Did he sense it? How is that possible?" Despite being surprised, Anson didn't think it had anything to do with what he said. After all, Felix was a martial artist at the peak of Grandmaster Realm. Felix wouldn't have grown to this point, only to be frightened by Anson's mere words."What a pity… Did you think you could really escape?"In the deserted area, Felix was running away at high speed. From the reminder left by Donna, it was clear that this S-tier Malevolent Phantom was definitely not passing by. Combined with Anson's words, it was clearly targeting him."Mackenzie approached me because of Specter, so what about this S-tier Malevolent Phantom?" he thought. He was speechless by this and felt that it was strange. But it wasn't the time to think about things like these now.All of a sudden, his phone rang. It was Donna."I sensed that there's an S-tier Malevolent Phantom cha

Xena stopped, anxious. She bit her lips painfully and felt extremely conflicted. She hadn't really made a decision yet, but if she left, her only chance of becoming stronger would be gone.The thought of Felix and Billy, who destroyed the entire Rebirth Sect by himself, flashed through her mind, and she turned around slowly."Okay. I promise you." …A week later, Felix's life in Newtown was extremely normal. Whenever night fell, he would have a passionate night with Nerissa. However, he didn't know what was going on. It was difficult for them to get pregnant."Honey, do you really not want to marry Xena?" Nerissa asked curiously as they walked into the mall."No. She'll find someone she likes soon enough, so why should I bring her with me? And don't ask me these things again."Although his tone was gentle, Nerissa still felt the annoyance in his voice. She turned away quickly, a little scared. "I'm sorry, honey. I'll never ask anything like that again."Just as Felix was abo

Felix thought for a while before he said, "Hm, at this point, even if it's just a conspiracy, there's nothing we can do. Besides, I'm not weak."How confident! If someone else had said this, Billy would've sneered in contempt. However, it came from Felix, and he felt like that was only natural. After all, Felix's soul progression was terrifying.The matter with Rebirth Sect came to an end, and Felix returned to Newtown. Although he was a little scared, Cordelia would be furious if he didn't return.Meanwhile, the Black Soul Scout was brought back to the headquarters. Billy said he would have to prepare and ensure that it was foolproof. Once he got the information, Xena would definitely contact Felix as fast as possible.However, Felix didn't know that Xena was currently meeting Specter at a villa in Yartford. "Have you made up your mind?" Specter asked, a confident smile on his face as he poured out a glass of water."First of all, I will not merge my soul with yours. Even with

"Can you remove his soul ties, Billy? I sure can't do it." Felix had high expectations of him. After the move Billy pulled today, Felix thought that he might be able to cut the soul ties bounding the Black Soul Scout."It's possible, but it might be too troublesome," Billy said.It didn't matter whether it was troublesome or not, as long as it could be done. Felix smiled. "Then, I'll leave him to you. This is a Black Soul Scout who knows a lot about the Hall of Souls."Xena was extremely happy with that answer. She knew that they had something to discuss and quickly excused herself."I'll head out and see how everything is being cleaned up outside," she said.This time, the information from this place was indescribable. Not only did it cost no lives, but they impeccably took over a Hall of Souls laboratory. Who would've dared to dream of such an outcome?Once Xena left, Felix gave Billy a thumbs up. "Your strength is truly terrifying."No matter how Billy did it, it proved the s

"I've told you this before, but there are too many people to be rescued in there. I'll have to go all out. But that means that the Malevolent Phantoms there will get some intel on me," Billy said.Xena felt helpless. However, this was also a hopeless situation. They couldn't just sacrifice a thousand lives for the sake of Billy's secrets in the second wave. This was something no one could help."Just do it. As long as you can save them, nothing else matters," Xena said.After a while, Billy raised his hand, and she stopped the car immediately."Let the backup team get ready." With that, Billy took a step forward, his expression turning solemn. He stretched out his hands slowly.Xena saw a string of beads appearing around his wrists; on the left, there were white beads, and on the right, there were black beads. …Meanwhile, in Rebirth Sect, Yosef and his A-tier Malevolent Phantoms were still investigating. They had checked almost half of the population, and there were no suspici
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1438
With a Black Soul Scout here, it seemed that Yosef had big plans. Besides, they had just mentioned feeding with corpses. Could this be the laboratory of the Hall of Souls?For a moment, Felix was tempted. If he could ideally take over this laboratory, it would definitely be helpful to Wayne's research. After all, it seemed like the Hall of Souls was progressing rapidly in this area.Additionally, the corpses were used as fodder. It was only a matter of time before Felix was exposed. Of course, he couldn't just sit there and wait to die. Meanwhile, in the room, the old man was still concentrating on the chessboard in front of him. Suddenly, his expression turned grim, and he quickly retaliated with a soul attack. Unfortunately, he fell to the ground, and his eyes rolled to the back of his head.Felix looked at the old man on the ground with his Spirit Eye and immediately confirmed that he was the Black Soul Scout. He heaved a sigh of relief. He had anticipated the attack the moment
