Chapter 901

Author: Dreamy Fire
Felix and his friends gathered in a luxurious private room at an upscale restaurant in Yartford that night.

"Everybody, please try the pasta. I hired professional chefs to cook it for all of you."

Madeline called a group of waiters over. Her pasta was renowned for being delicious.

After tasting it, Melissa, who loved eating pasta and fondue, exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! It tastes great, Maddy. When are you going to open a franchise in Gray City? I'll miss this terribly."

Madeline smiled. "Since you said that, I'll open one soon."

Though Ronan looked like a simple and honest person, he was actually pretty quick-witted. So, he swiftly said, "Can you teach me how to cook it, Maddy? If Melissa craves it in the future, I can cook that for her."

Hearing that, Felix replied, "Shut up! That is Maddy's secret recipe. How could she give it to you? Let's drink instead."

Realizing that Jack was drinking juice, Felix asked, "Are you a woman, Jack? Do you have that 'time of the month' when y

    At 11:00 pm, they finished their dinner. Jack drove Ronan and Felix to the banquet hall. "Rest well, Felix. Leave everything to me!"Ronan had been dragged into the car by Melissa. The latter threatened to break up with him if he made Felix fight this time. "Okay," Felix replied. To be honest, he was a little drunk. The liquor was bought by Ryan and was made using a secret technique, so it was very valuable. Apparently, even powerful martial artists would be a little drunk after drinking it, so its authenticity was confirmed. Once they arrived at the place, they saw a large restaurant on Yartford's outskirts.It wasn't a coincidence that Ocean Whit chose this place. Since many experts were arriving there, they would be fighting a lot, and fighting wasn't allowed in the central area of Yartford. When the three men got out of the car, a muscular man at the entrance said, "If you can make me retreat without getting me injured, you can enter the banquet."That was probably the

    Milo's gaze turned indifferent. Raising her scabbard, she warned, "I told you to leave!"Hearing that, Ronan anxiously asked, "What are you doing, Milo? They are my friends."Sneering, Milo looked at Felix and Jack disdainfully. "Are you really his friends? Ronan may be naive, but I know what you two are thinking. You probably want him to do something bad for you. Had we not met, it would've been fine. But since we did, I have to care about him."Are you leaving or not?"Meanwhile, Felix frowned. He couldn't even take a small nap. It was frustrating. "Can you tell her to shut up, Ronan?"Hearing that, Ronan was scared senseless. He pulled Milo over and said, "Stop meddling in my affairs, Milo. I know I'm naive, and you probably said that because you care for me. But they won't trick me."He had known Milo since they were young. So, he realized that the latter was looking at him distrustfully and hurriedly whispered, "His younger sister is going to be my wife soon. Do you understa

    Both Ocean and Aiden were powerful and from influential families. After realizing that the Martial Arts Competition would take place, they privately won over the favor of a few young martial arts masters. They wanted to eliminate the useless martial artists during the competition and make them withdraw once they saw both of them. This was to save time. So, a while later, a muscular man approached Felix and crossed his arms. He said coldly, "Do you dare to fight with me? I don't think you're qualified to sit here."Hearing that, everyone looked over. They knew that something dramatic was about to happen. Fights were common in the banquet, so long as no one died in the process. However, Felix continued snoring. When they noticed that, a few people didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They wondered who Felix was and why he was sleeping there.As expected, the muscular man was infuriated. Just when he was about to attack, Ronan stopped him. "How can you disturb Felix's sleep? L

    No one took this guy, who dared not show his face, seriously. Some people present were even laughing at him.However, when his intimidating presence blanketed the entire yard, their expressions shifted, and fear started growing in their hearts. "He's in the Boneforging Realm!" someone yelled in shock, fear finally consuming him. What did being in Boneforging Realm imply? This was a major realm after True Blood Realm. Few in the older generation of cultivators had reached this stage. This was a Realm that could only be reached by a martial artist who had progressed onto forging his bones after having purified every single drop of blood in his body. It was certain that he would be extremely powerful. Everyone present was still young. Even if they were gifted, there was no way they could battle against a powerful cultivator in Boneforging Realm. Aiden remained calm, though. He said with a laugh, "I think you've probably lived in some cave for too long, old man. We're in Yartfor

    Just as Ocean's reassuring efforts started to work, Jack vomited blood. Not just him, but so did the regular citizens here, such as all the waiting staff in the yard. "Crap!" Felix stopped quickly. Only then did he remember that regular folks were also present. The martial artists could still resist the effects of the poison somewhat, but the ordinary citizens not versed in the martial arts didn't have a chance. Based on his brief resistance against the poison, he could confirm that an ordinary citizen would die within one minute. How could he watch his best friend die just like that?"Anyone with silver needles on hand? Take them out!"With a flick of Felix's hand, all his needles flew toward all directions. Even so, only half of the regular people present were rescued. The others collapsed onto the floor in agony. "Am I going to die, Felix?" Jack stared at his blood on the ground, his face frozen in disbelief."Shut up! As if I'd let you die!"Milo rushed over to ask Felix,

    Felix had never felt so powerless before. The hope in everyone's eyes was an indescribably heavy mountain weighing on his shoulders. "You've done your best, Felix. So, don't put the blame on yourself." Jack smiled. He knew Felix better than everyone else. It wasn't that Felix didn't want to save everyone. It was that he couldn't.The masked man had risked his life to kill them. Felix would never believe that this wasn't related to the Martial Arts Competition.He had never expected to fall victim to this poison, too, not when he was already extremely powerful. From this, it was clear how valuable this poison was. The masked man must have been sure that this could kill all the young martial artists here. Suddenly, inspiration flashed in his mind. Felix fished out his phone and called Selmer. "Bring the alchemy furnace here as soon as possible!"Felix had brought with him to Yartford one of the two furnaces he owned for sudden emergencies. Little did he know it would really come i

    The arrival of the best master healer in the country reignited Aiden's and everyone else's hope that they could survive this. Due to the magnitude of the situation, Lemuel didn't reminisce about the past with the other healers present. He picked a random person and started taking his pulse. After one minute, he stood up. "Can an antidote be made, Mr. Morris?" asked Hector, who felt a headache coming on. If this situation wasn't dealt with well, devastating consequences were sure to come. If these people had really died, the headquarters would certainly be blamed, as they were the organizer of the Martial Arts Competition. Who would want to shoulder the blame when the time came?"This is the Blightbane Poison. I read about it in a medical book once. It was concocted by a highly skilled practitioner of medicine from the last dynasty. According to the book, even the inventor himself has not formulated an antidote for it."What? A poison from the previous dynasty? "And this is wh

    Felix's guess had been correct. Where did the pill recorded in the medical book that Gerald gave him come from? It was the most basic antidote pill. Yet, it was enough to counteract the Blightbane Poison that had everyone at their wit's end. It was unbelievable."Can you come over, Mr. Hoffman? We can hold out for 24 hours," Felix asked just in case. It would make things easier if Gerald could come."You damn brat! Are you sure you're my student? First of all, I can't make it back in 24 hours. Secondly, even if I could, why should I? Whether those people live or die has nothing to do with me. Goodbye!"Felix smiled bitterly. He had forgotten how Gerald had long since been disillusioned by humanity's greed. To him, saving lives and healing the wounded was nothing but drivel.As soon as he stepped outside, he noticed that all eyes were on him. It was plain to see that he remained everyone's greatest hope."It should work, but I can't guarantee it. I'll just have to do my best."The

    Eunice was utterly terrified as she watched a burly man carry someone in and then roughly toss them onto the ground. It wasn't until then that she realized it was Felix.Horace grinned even wider. "That's right. If I remember correctly, his name is Felix Zeller, isn't it? Damn it! You'd rather mess around with some lowly delivery guy than give me a chance? You brought this on yourself!"With that, he gestured with his finger. "Wake him up!"Black Dog nudged Felix, and he came to."Are you awake now, Felix?"Felix looked at Horace, who was a complete stranger to him. However, what really caught him off guard was seeing Eunice there."My name is Horace Sawyer. Did you really think that getting Yadiel to warn me would be enough to keep you safe? "Watch closely. You're about to witness something unforgettable. In just a moment, your so-called goddess will be on her knees, completely at my mercy. This is the difference between you and me."Eunice's mind was racing. She knew Felix w

    "Thanks, but there's no way I'd sell something this valuable from an old classmate. I'm definitely keeping it," Felix said.Just as Lindsay was about to insist, Felix smiled and pulled out his phone. "Can we exchange contact info?"Without a second thought, Lindsay happily shared her number and even added him on WhatsApp. She had none of the aloofness one might expect from a celebrity."Lindsay, if you ever find yourself in trouble, something you can't handle on your own, try reaching out to me. Sometimes, things aren't always what they seem," Felix said.With that, he left. In a world filled with Malevolent Phantoms, running into an old classmate—especially one who was still so kind and genuine—was a rare and pleasant surprise. Whether or not she would actually contact him later wasn't something he needed to worry about.By the time he stepped out of the five-star hotel, it was already past 9:00 pm. He rode his electric scooter a short distance before turning into a dark alley.

    When Felix returned with the coffee, he handed it over. In exchange, the person inside gave him a plastic bag. Curious, he peeked inside and found an autographed album."Lindsay Yarwood?"The name slipped out of his mouth as he looked at the woman on the signed album cover. She looked exactly like one of his high school classmates, who also shared the name Lindsay Yarwood.She had been quiet and reserved back in school, with hardly any friends. Most people barely knew anything about her. That would have been the end of it. However, on graduation day, someone pointed out something strange while looking at their class photos."Hey! Look at these two pictures. Doesn't Lindsay's face look exactly the same?"One was their graduation photo, and the other was a group picture from a school event back when they were sophomores. Upon closer inspection, they realized it was true. Everyone else had changed in some way. After all, three years had passed. However, Lindsay looked exactly the

    Seeing that Horace had finally calmed down, the middle-aged man standing nearby spoke up, "Mr. Sawyer, if you really can't let this go, there is a way to handle it."Horace shot him a dark look. "What way? My family has no ties with Yadiel. If things really escalate, he won't hold back. And if my father finds out that I got into a conflict with Yadiel over a woman, he'll kill me."Just from Yadiel's phone call, Horace could easily guess that Eunice had been putting on an act all along. Yadiel had business dealings with the Jamison family. That had to be the reason Felix escaped so easily."Damn it! He's just a food delivery guy. How dare he think he can land a woman like that?"He couldn't wrap his head around it. How was he any worse than Felix? The only explanation was that Eunice had some particular tastes that she had been hiding all this time."Mr. Sawyer, have you forgotten? Your father has Black Dog under his command, and he said you were allowed to use them once."Horace

    In the end, Felix called Eunice again to postpone his dinner plans with Donna. Even though the person who died in the Webster family wasn't important, a few of Donna's friends from the murder mystery group had lost their lives for real. There was no way she wouldn't be devastated.The reason Felix stayed behind was a lingering suspicion. It was nothing concrete—just a hunch. But it was enough to make him want to stay in Notura City for a few more days.With nothing better to do, he decided to check out the location on the note he had been handed earlier. It led him to an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city."Are you sure you don't want me to bring a few more guys, Mr. Zeller?"The one speaking was Yadiel. Felix had called him over, too. Since they didn't know who was behind this, having Yadiel around could make things a lot easier."What are you afraid of with me around?" Felix asked.Yadiel looked embarrassed. He recalled his destroyed G-Wagon and quickly waved his ha

    "I don't see a trace of sadness in your eyes," Felix said.The very first sentence made Zayden visibly uneasy. He quickly explained, "I'm the head of this family. If I break down in tears, what will happen to everyone else? We finally found our long-lost daughter, only to be separated again by life and death. I don't even know how to describe this feeling."Felix remained expressionless."Just be honest with me. We've gathered enough information to confirm that you never had a twin daughter. If you tell the truth now, Donna can return home safely. Otherwise, I can't guarantee anything."After speaking with Donna earlier, Felix had instructed Harith to investigate the Webster family. There was no record of Donna ever having a twin sister.After a long silence, Zayden finally said, "Alright. You're the legendary healer and a representative of the headquarters. I trust you'll handle things fairly."You're right. My daughter is dead, and I'm not sad at all. In fact, I feel relieved

    At this point, there was no way Donna hadn't figured out what Felix was implying. Her mouth dropped open in shock."Oh, my God! Are you saying it's my twin sister?"Felix's expression was just as intense. "That's right. She looks exactly like you. I've seen her with my own eyes. Facial recognition technology isn't advanced enough to tell the difference. Her face could definitely unlock your phone."Without wasting a second, Felix instructed Donna to stay put and immediately rushed out."These Malevolent Phantoms are too cunning."The Malevolent Phantom must have somehow found out about her twin sister and used it to their advantage. Perhaps the Malevolent Phantom had used some other method to threaten the Webster family to secure a safe identity.Felix finally understood that Helena and Tony couldn't have left behind a foolproof strategy for every possible scenario. Learning about the Malevolent Phantoms would have to be a slow and meticulous process.Initially, he thought a Mal

    There was no doubt that Donna was innocent. The surveillance footage clearly tracked her movements from the hotel to her home without any irregularities.Perhaps because Felix had helped her family, she naturally felt more at ease with him than with the others here. Forcing herself to stay calm, she started thinking carefully.About ten minutes passed before her expression suddenly changed. "Wait! I just remembered something! Felix, can you get my phone back?""No problem."Once the phone was brought over, Donna, still wearing plastic gloves, immediately turned it on. She opened a WhatsApp group chat."Look, Felix. This is our group chat for the murder mystery game. I started inviting everyone at 2:00 pm yesterday."As her fingers moved across the screen, Felix observed every detail. The chat clearly showed the time and location of the meeting, along with everyone's confirmations."See this message? It was sent by one of us at 3:10 pm."Felix frowned. There didn't seem to be an

    "How did you figure it out?" Felix asked.He quickly calmed himself. That A-tier Malevolent Phantom had killed so many people without leaving a single trace. Could Harith have uncovered something so easily?If it were true, Milo would probably die from sheer frustration.Harith pulled out his phone to play a surveillance clip. He explained, "This is a suspicious individual we spotted last night. If we start with him, we'll definitely find the key to this case."However, the moment Felix glanced at the footage, his expression turned strange. The suspicious individual in question was none other than he himself, disguised as a rugged man."You don't need to investigate that man. That person is me," he said.Harith was stunned. Fortunately, as a martial artist himself, he knew that disguising himself was an easy feat for Felix. Hence, he didn't question it."My lord, the interrogation of Donna is complete. Per your instructions, we haven't let her go yet. However, we haven't found a
