Chapter 601

The sun was setting as Felix returned to Canraville. He had planned to meet Xena, but she had been called to an urgent meeting in Yartford at the last minute. Jack called just as he got home. Felix said, "Perfect timing. I just got back and brought some good food. Let's have a drink." Jack's voice was hushed. "Buddy, we thought you'd gone off the grid." Off the grid? Felix was puzzled. "Nancy called you a few times. Why didn't you pick up?" Jack asked.It was true that Nancy had called three times on Felix's way back. But how could he answer her call? The more they interacted, the more pain it would bring her. "Are you with Nancy right now?" Felix could tell Jack was probably calling from the bathroom. "Yeah, it's her birthday today. She wanted to invite you." Felix sighed. "Just tell her you couldn't reach me either. And ask Nessa to stop playing matchmaker. Nancy's a great girl, but I just can't." "I understand. Wrong timing, I guess," Jack relented.Just as he hung

Another member of the Eight Great Martial Families? That made sense, considering Rosalyn was Jeffrey's friend."Hello, Mr. Zeller." Rosalyn put on no airs when she gave a slight bow with nervous eyes. "Hello. If you're ready, let's begin." Felix had already pinpointed the Dragonspine on her body. The thing was not large, so it was easy to conceal. When he first saw a Dragonspine, Felix had asked Gerald why it was so small. Shouldn't a dragon's spine be massive? Gerald's honest answer was that he did not know either. "Yes. Let's go to the bedroom."After saying that, Rosalyn walked ahead. Felix whispered teasingly to Jeffrey, "Is she your girlfriend?" Though Felilx seemed to be joking, he actually wanted to learn more about her to figure out how to get the Dragonspine. "Don't get the wrong idea, Mr. Zeller. We're just friends. Besides, I'm engaged. I'll be getting married soon," Jeffrey replied.Felix smiled without comment and followed Rosalyn. He closed the door behind th

The atmosphere in the bedroom was incredibly awkward. Rosalyn kept her head down as she was torn by indecision. Her opponent had been devious enough to land the Glacial Strike right on her bottom. More importantly, it had affected part of her thigh too. This meant that treatment would require exposing not just half but her entire bottom to access the thigh area. "Isn't… isn't there another way?" Rosalyn asked.Felix gave a wry smile. "If there was, I'd have suggested it already. I need to apply acupuncture at the source to completely dispel the rimefrost energy. Of course, it's up to you whether you want to do it." Meanwhile, Felix was still plotting how to get the Dragonspine. He could sense it precisely now. It was located near Rosalyn's waist. After about a minute, Rosalyn took a deep breath and bravely raised her head. "Jeff speaks very highly of you, and healers have professional ethics. I'm just a patient to you anyway. Please proceed with the treatment." Felix nodded.

Felix would not call himself a great person, but he was not evil either. Any other martial artist capable of the Dragons Destroyer technique would have simply killed Rosalyn for the Dragonspine without hesitation. That was if Rosalyn would not hand over the Dragonspine. But Felix could not do that. This girl bore him no ill will and had treated him with respect. Plus, she was Jeffrey's friend. How could he harm her? After much consideration, lying to her about it seemed to be the only way out. Once he had the Dragonspine, he could find ways to make it up to her later. The burning sensation he had mentioned was actually the Dragonspine's effect. Indeed, it would provide some minor benefits to her training. And it was hardly the deadly threat he had described. "But the technique was passed down by my grandfather. Everyone trains this way. Why would it go wrong?" Rosalyn asked.Felix had anticipated this question. "It's not the technique that's flawed. Something on your body is i

So, the Ruby family ranked first among the Eight Great Martial Families? Felix widened his eyes. He had a bad feeling about this. His power had skyrocketed lately, so he didn't feel too bothered about facing the Craydens or even that guy Aiden. But the Eight Families were different since they were full of martial arts masters. Besides, the Rubies were practically the best among them. He would have to be extremely careful not to leave any traces, or the consequences would be terrible. "Actually, they dropped to second place six months ago. But I said that because they could reclaim the top spot any time," Jeffrey explained."I see." Felix left without further questions after that.…While driving his Range Rover home, he stopped at a red light. That was when a BMW slowly pulled up beside him. Glancing over, he noticed a woman asleep against the window in the back seat. Though he could only see her side profile, he recognized that it was Nancy immediately. Her birthday party

Matty rubbed his hands together as he looked back at Nancy in the car with obvious lust. He said, "Don't worry, guys. I always share. You'll get your turn after I'm done."The designated driver chuckled quietly, clearly unsurprised. He had a feeling this would happen from the moment he spotted Nancy walking toward them outside the karaoke bar. She was breathtaking, and just the thought of indulging in her later made his body tremble with excitement.However, just as Matty opened the car door, a loud bang startled him. The door suddenly slammed shut with force."W-Who the hell are you?" he asked. The group froze, panic creeping across their faces. None of them had noticed when a young man appeared next to the back door of the car. "I'm the one who's going to end you," Felix stated coldly. He had been tailing them all along, hoping the car would head to Nancy's apartment or Shunnington University. Unfortunately, the detour confirmed his worst fears. If he had not followed, Nan

"Polaris!" Felix's voice carried a cold edge as he stared Matty down.Matty tried to look calm, but inside, he was panicking. He could not gauge Felix's abilities or whether he was afraid of guns, so he decided to bluff, hoping to buy time until Louis O'Neill arrived."You've got quite the nerve, name-dropping like that. You trash think you're amazing just because you're to an organization of that nonsense caliber?" Felix sneered.He knew these kinds of people—they loved to use big names to intimidate others. Felix had reservations about Polaris, but at least they operated with some semblance of ethics. The infamous Mourning Village incident proved as much.Despite their involvement, no innocent lives were lost. There was no way a group like that would stoop to trafficking children. "Don't believe me? Fine! If you're so confident, wait here. Once Mr. O'Neill gets here, you'll know whether I'm lying or not," Matty said, his tone gaining a hint of arrogance.Felix tilted his hea

"So, you're the one meddling in other people's business? I was expecting some kind of hotshot," a voice taunted as two figures walked into the courtyard—a young man and an older gentleman.Based on Matty's earlier mention, the younger man was undoubtedly Louis O'Neill.Louis glanced at the four writhing men on the ground. His expression tightened as he assessed their condition. Even a glance was enough to tell they had been subjected to extreme torture. Felix did not bother with greetings, shooting four silver needles into Matty and the others and causing them another wave of excruciating pain. Even Louis's lips twitched involuntarily as he watched. He dared not imagine how horrible the pain was."In every nation, anyone with even a shred of decency knows you never harm children!" Felix's voice was cold yet laced with fury. He continued, "There's a story from abroad about a fugitive in a high-speed car chase. Police were hot on his tail, but he slammed on the brakes when he came

At first, Felix genuinely believed Louis was the final player in this twisted game. However, as events unfolded, he quickly realized otherwise. Louis was too young, and the fact that a seasoned martial artist accompanied him suggested that there was someone higher pulling the strings. "I'll talk! I'll talk!" Louis screamed, his will utterly shattered by the relentless torture. At this point, his rank and martial prowess no longer mattered. No one could endure this kind of pain indefinitely."It was my uncle—Jonathan Larsen! He orchestrated everything. I swear it's the truth—just end it quickly!" Louis cried out, desperation dripping from every word. "Your uncle?" Felix muttered, his voice icy. "And where is he now?""He's at Polaris! My uncle is one of their elders," Louis replied, trembling.Felix froze for a moment, taken aback. So, Matty had not been bluffing after all—Polaris was genuinely involved. Felix had assumed Matty had thrown out the name of a major sect as a scare

No one would have imagined that children were being sent every month into this forest, with the entrance hidden within a small cave.When Felix arrived, he stepped inside, finding scattered animal bones exactly as Louis had described. The cave was not very deep. After walking about 30 feet, he reached a dead end—a solid stone wall.A regular person stumbling into this cave would have turned back by now. However, Felix's sharp eyes caught a small, shadowy corner above him where a concealed camera was quietly pointed in his direction.Perhaps it was his own abandonment as a child, but Felix had always despised traffickers with a burning hatred. Letting something like this slide was never an option. Clenching his fist, he punched the stone wall with immense force, shattering it instantly. Beyond the debris was something unexpected—an elevator. Felix stepped inside, pressing down lightly with his foot. The immense pressure triggered the elevator, sending it plummeting downward at b
