Felix frowned. When the man first appeared, he had sensed a murderous intent aimed at him, but it quickly disappeared and shifted toward the old man. Yet now, he just heard that the man was here to kill him."You're here to kill me?" the old man asked, astonished.Killian gave a bitter smile. He could move his legs and his facial muscles slowly. To be frank, Felix's strength had amazed him. With just half a coffee cup, Felix had rendered him immobile with almost no visible injuries on his body."That's right. But we underestimated you."The old man, finally understanding the situation, took a step back in shock but said nothing."Interesting. You must be a professional assassin, right? Seems like your organization is on the brink of destruction," Felix said.He was no stranger to assassin organizations. Back in Eden Village, assassins had managed to locate him. The nine female apprentices became furious. On that same day, three of the apprentices left the village, and by the

The old man let out a sigh of relief and nodded at Felix. Then, Killian collapsed to the floor."Someone will come to deal with the body."Since the old man was also an assassin, his background was not clean, either. Thus, Felix didn't mind killing someone in front of him. It wasn't a big deal."I keep my word. Wait here, and I'll get the Shimmeroot for you."As for the so-called Inferno Clan, Felix didn't take it seriously at all. As long as he was strong, everything else would just be a piece of cake for him. It was just noises and not real danger.By the time Felix left the villa, Kane, who had already been notified, brought people over to handle the body inside.…Meanwhile, in Villa No. 6 next door, Sasha was tearfully complaining to Nattie, who had just returned. "Mom! Felix is such a jerk! He actually slapped me in the face. You have to stand up for me!"Although Nattie was also angry, she managed to stay calm. "Sasha, just bear with it for now. Your father just signed th

At the headquarters of the Phoenix Legion, Belle was flushed with excitement. "Milady! I'm sure Mr. Summers Senior is definitely going to be saved this time!"Xena was equally elated. After all, it was the Miracle Card at stake. Once they had it, the miracle doctor would surely appear, and Curtis' illness would be cured without question."Don't get too excited just yet. We still don't know exactly what the Kinsley family wants in exchange, and the publicity for this auction is everywhere. Even though it's only been one day, many big names are bound to come in."However, Belle was unconcerned. "I'd like to see who dares disrespect you."The smile on Xena's face faded as her voice turned cold. "Though I am a goddess of war, there are plenty of people in Dragonia who don't take me seriously. Don't try to flatter me. It won't help us secure the Miracle Card.""Oh, I'll investigate which influential figures are coming to the auction."Xena raised her hand to stop her. "No need to do t

Wendy's phone was turned off? Felix was baffled. Someone like Wendy would never turn off her phone or let it out of her sight, even for a moment. This was odd."Alright. Leave it to me. I'll make sure tomorrow night's dinner goes as planned. You just go ahead and make a reservation.""Haha! I knew I could count on you!"This was what true friendship meant. No matter Felix's status or connections, in Jack's eyes, he was simply his good buddy and nothing more. If something came up, they wouldn't hesitate to ask each other for help, and vice versa.Felix called Wendy, but once again, her phone was off. He frowned.When it was nearing noon, Felix drove his Range Rover out. Since Wendy's phone was still turned off, he decided to visit the Kinsley family.It was partly because of Jack's problem. Another part was because he was worried something might have happened to Wendy. After all, they had developed a certain level of friendship since getting to know each other.When he arrived at

When Felix parked his car, Wendy and Vincent were already waiting for him."What's going on here?"Felix got out of the car with a puzzled expression. Since nothing seemed wrong, why were all the guards stationed outside? And why did they have their phones turned off?Wendy looked embarrassed. Felix rarely contacted her, yet today of all days, he did, and it just happened to be the day they were auctioning off the Miracle Card. She felt awkward about bringing it up."Felix, there's… a bit of a misunderstanding here. Let's get inside, and I will explain?""Sure."A few minutes later, Felix had a strange expression on his face. "That's it?"Wendy nodded. "Yes. My father and grandfather were even worried that you might be upset."Felix chuckled and leaned back on the couch. "The Miracle Card has already been handed over to you. How you deal with it is up to you. Why would I be upset?"Hearing this, the members of the Kinsley family all breathed a sigh of relief. It truly would ha

"Felix, I beg you. Please help me. Take me to the Kinsley residence. Please," Xena begged.However, Felix shook his head. "I've already said it before. Your grandfather's illness can only be treated this way. Now, we still lack three kinds of herbs. Even if you invite the miracle doctor, there will still only be this treatment."Upon hearing that, Xena was enraged. There was a look of disappointment in her eyes. "Even if you're a member of Dragon Alliance, do you think you can control everything? Do you know everything? Felix, you need to be humble. "Now, I understand why you acted the way you did before. It's Dragon Alliance that you're proud of, isn't it? In Dragonia, there are factions greater than Dragon Alliance. Besides, you're only a member."When Xena saw how unbothered Felix was, she said, "Let me ask you. Are you chief or deputy chief of Dragon Alliance?""No.""The vice leader?""Nope."Felix was telling the truth. It was true that he didn't hold any of those positi

Felix looked to the side. He didn't know what car it was, but based on the current situation, it should be a luxury car. However, the person driving the vehicle was rude. People tended to act wildly nowadays, and that person's intention was obvious.Nevertheless, Yvonne didn't get angry. Instead, she squeezed out a smile. "Mr. Zimmerman, you're here too. I don't want to trouble you."Before stepping on the accelerator and speeding away, the man said, "It's rare for me to want to spend time with you. Sadly, you missed the chance."He was very arrogant and was extremely blunt. He didn't bother to hide his thoughts at all."Felix, he's George Zimmerman. He's a big shot from Yartford. You shouldn't offend him," Yvonne said.After getting into the car and advising Felix, Yvonne regretted her actions. They weren't in a romantic relationship, so why would he get angry because of what George said?"It seems that the auction this time has attracted the attention of many big shots."Yvonn

"Milady, look there. Why does Chain know Felix?" Belle whispered to Xena.Xena turned to look at them before turning back."Chain is friendly. Previously, the arrest happened in Felix's villa. Didn't you say it yourself? Felix showed up in the end. So, why is it strange?"Xena's words made sense. Belle glared at Felix. She felt uneasy. Although Felix's status in Dragon Alliance hadn't been confirmed, she hoped he didn't have another hidden side.After all, when Felix acquired the Phoenix Legion, he and Belle became enemies. Thus, she hoped that he, as her opponent, would be weaker.As time passed, the auction had begun. Bernard was hosting on the stage, but he didn't dare talk much. Since many people present were more affluent than the Kinsley family, it was most polite to keep it short."Thank you, everyone, for coming here. There's no need for cash to bid on the Miracle Card. I just hope that you all can write down how you can help the Kinsley family. We'll pick who can provide

The moment the topic came up, Felix's gaze flickered, avoiding direct eye contact. No matter how you put it, even though Xena would also benefit from it, it still felt somewhat unfair. It felt that way, especially since they weren't in a relationship. If they were married or at least dating, it wouldn't be an issue at all."I'm exhausted. I need another two days to rest," he said.Billy scoffed. "I know your soul energy is depleted, but trust me. Your fatigue will disappear instantly once your souls merge. The feeling is beyond words. I'm sure you've heard from the Malevolent Phantom how irresistible Soul Binding is, even for those who've already experienced love and passion."Wait, what? Felix was speechless. It seemed that there was really no way out of it."Oh, one last thing. After you and Xena… you know, your soul energy will be completely absorbed and stored away. That means you won't have any left to wield a soul-bound weapon or use any soul attacks. Are you sure you still

There was only one explanation—Felix really could heal soul damage."Of course, I healed him. Let me rest for a bit. Wake me up when the sun comes up."Felix was utterly exhausted. Even if an S-tier Malevolent Phantom appeared beside him, he couldn't be bothered to care. If Donna had truly wanted to kill him, she would have done it long ago. There was no reason for her to wait until now.As Donna watched Felix slip into a deep sleep almost instantly, her expression grew more complex.What kind of ridiculous joke was that? Even though Leonardo was a crossbreed, his soul had already inherited the traits of a Malevolent Phantom. While it wasn't exactly the same as a true Malevolent Phantom, the essence of his soul had changed.And yet, Felix had still managed to heal him. If word of this got out, it would shake the entire Malevolent Phantom world to its core.It was like finding out that some miracle doctor could cure any disease in the human world. People would go absolutely crazy.
Chapter 1361
Leonardo's body suddenly started convulsing, and with foam spilling from his mouth, even a fool could tell something had gone wrong.Damage to the soul was entirely different from physical injuries. If one got a cut, even without treatment, their body would eventually heal on its own. However, the soul wasn't like that. Any damage was permanent and had widespread consequences. Even if just a fraction of an inch of the soul was harmed, the physical reaction could be extreme.Felix let out a long breath. "Finally got it out. It sounds easy, but doing it was incredibly difficult. Even with my soul energy, I nearly couldn't hold on."The level of precision required to make such an impossibly fine cut was beyond imagination. To do it without causing any collateral damage would require soul energy beyond comprehension.Of course, Leonardo's soul had been damaged. There was no avoiding it."At least he's alive. You've done all you could," Donna said.However, Felix just smiled. "That'

At that moment, Felix turned to Norman. "Step outside and say the lines you've rehearsed. Then, I'll take your son with me. He'll be back by dawn."Norman was beyond relieved. If Leonardo could survive, nothing else mattered.He had long anticipated this day. Living on Earth, even if it wasn't intentional, he had killed more than one person. There was no way he'd be let off the hook.In the living room, Lina was in tears, bombarding him with questions, while Steve kept sighing heavily. No one could have imagined that a once-happy family would fall apart overnight."I'm taking Leonardo for treatment. I won't say it again."Seeing the scene unfold, Felix spoke up. With Norman's cooperation, things were going more smoothly. Since he had been assured that Leonardo would return safely, there was no reason for further resistance.The situation had to be handled strictly. There was no room for defiance.Just then, Xena arrived. She had actually been in Zuera since the day before but ha
Chapter 1359
Norman looked into Felix's eyes and knew there was no room for negotiation. He lowered his head in silence.Seeing this, Felix dialed Donna's number."What's up?" she asked."I found a crossbreed.""A crossbreed? Oh, you mean a hybrid? What about it?"Felix had no choice but to ask Donna for help. No matter how he looked at it, he also wanted to protect Leonardo."This crossbreed is only three years old and seems to have inherited a soul-related trait. He just killed someone out of pure instinct."Before Felix could finish, Donna had already guessed the situation. She let out a chuckle, her tone carrying a hint of eerie amusement. "Let me guess, you want to save the kid?"Felix didn't bother denying it. "That's right. I want to know if there's a way."After a long pause, Donna's voice came through again, "There is! But I can only assist. Since he's just three years old and hasn't developed much yet, I can mark the part of his soul that drives his instincts. "You'll need to
Chapter 1358
A trace of sweetness flickered in Norman's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile."Yeah, I never imagined it, either. Me, an A-tier Malevolent Phantom, actually falling in love with a human. I'm completely, hopelessly in love."Felix froze as he hadn't expected it to be true."You probably don't believe me. No other Malevolent Phantom would, either. But it's real. I truly love Lina. After experiencing what you humans call love, I was completely consumed by it. Maybe that's why, when we were together, our souls intertwined, and that's how Leonardo was born."Norman grew emotional as he spoke."Do you understand? When I realized that Leonardo had inherited the unique traits of a Malevolent Phantom's soul, I was overjoyed beyond words."But I regretted it instantly when I remembered where we were. Because it meant that if Norman was ever discovered, he would be in danger of being killed at any moment."And now, with your arrival today, I knew that moment had come. I just didn't expe

The existence of crossbreeds was classified as top secret by headquarters. If word got out, even if the general public remained unaware, just the knowledge reaching certain members within headquarters would cause mass panic.Would you dare to question whether your partner might be a Malevolent Phantom? Would you risk wondering if your child inherited some of its traits and became a crossbreed? No one wanted to shoulder that responsibility.Take Johann and his team, for example. They had absolutely no knowledge of crossbreeds, and their resistance right now stemmed entirely from their own moral convictions."Sir!"Johann didn't dare stop Felix outright, but he raised his voice to make his stance clear. The others followed suit, not to mention Lina, who was still sobbing uncontrollably, and Steve, whose eyes were red with fury as he glared at Felix without a hint of fear."Mr. Zeller! If you're really going to take my grandson, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"Tears st
Chapter 1356
"So what?" Lina asked. "Even if I lied, what does that person's death have to do with my son?"Felix suddenly roared, "Are you telling me that when you opened the door, your son never left your sight for even a second?""I—"Lina opened her mouth but suddenly found herself at a loss for words. That instinctive hesitation was the most telling of all."Get the car ready. Take her with us. We're going to Lina's house.""Yes, sir!"The convoy arrived at a luxurious mansion in Zuera. The moment Felix and his team rushed inside, they saw Steve sitting in the living room, holding a three-year-old boy in his arms."Mr. Zeller, why are all of you here?"Lina, restrained by Felix's men, screamed in a frenzy, "Dad! Save Leonardo! They're trying to take him away!"Then, she turned to Felix, shouting in fury, "You monsters! He's just three years old, and you suspect him of murder? I'll expose you! I'll take you to court!"By the time she finished, she was sobbing uncontrollably."Mr. Zel

Even though Lina knew Felix held an unimaginably high status—so high that even Steve feared him—his continued questioning and the direction of his suspicions pushed her to the edge. The mere idea that her son might be involved sent her into a silent rage.She was a mother, and when it came to her child, she did not care who the hell the other person was."I'm just asking questions," Felix said flatly. "Just answer them. Don't make me start quoting laws and rights to get you to cooperate."His voice was so calm. For a moment, Lina wondered if she had overreacted, so she took a breath and continued.She explained, "He wasn't in the stall. It's way too small in there. I left the door cracked open so he could see me, and since I had the tether on, plus the nanny and driver waiting outside, I wasn't worried about him wandering off."Felix did not say anything right away. He stood there, clearly deep in thought.Silvercrest Restaurant might have been an upscale dining place, but it was
