At the same time, a helicopter descended over the Great Imperial Sect. Xena stepped out, accompanied by two subordinates carrying a corpse covered with a white cloth.Every seat was filled except one in the Great Imperial Sect's council hall.The five remaining elders, the sect leader, and the deputy leader were all present."Ms. Cunningham."Xena greeted Jaxon with a deep bow. The sect leader of the Great Imperial Sect, Jaxon Cunningham, sat in front of everyone with a solemn expression."It's been years, and yet you came back only to deliver a corpse. As your mentor, I can't help but feel ashamed."Anyone else could hear the dissatisfaction and anger in his tone, not to mention Xena."Mr. Cunningham, Olly was killed by a mysterious woman. I'm doing everything I can to track her down," Xena explained.Just as she finished speaking, an elder interjected."Xena, we old folks may be on the verge of death or hidden away in the mountains, but we're not ignorant. Are you trying to

Ten minutes later, inside the council hall, the atmosphere among the Great Imperial Sect members was tense, and no one said a word."Mr. Cunningham! Are we really going to detain Xena like this? Is that fine?"The deputy sect leader, who was arrogant and dismissive of Xena, now appeared worried.After all, while his seniority might allow him to treat her this way, Xena's identity as the goddess of war was a whole different matter."Exactly, Mr. Cunningham. Xena is the goddess of war, and if Hector gets involved, we're in serious trouble."In Dragonia, were there sects that dared to defy the Warlord of the East openly? Yes. But the Great Imperial Sect was definitely not one of them. The authority of the Warlord of the East wasn't just an empty title.However, Jaxon didn't seem concerned."There's no need to worry! We'll just say that Xena was deep into her cultivation and returned to the Great Imperial Sect to go into seclusion. Even the Warlord of the East won't interfere."The

"Simple! You've humiliated me, and you even hit Sasha. She's made it clear that I should inform you of this. Tomorrow night, go to this place and apologize to her and me. Otherwise, don't blame her for not giving any face, not even for her father," Ruth declared.Felix smiled."Alright, I'll definitely be there. You can also tell Sasha that from now until the meeting time tomorrow, she still has a chance to change her mind. Otherwise, I'll make sure she spends the rest of her life in a wheelchair."Did Sasha really think that just because Warren had her back, she could act as she pleased? She had already been involved in a lot of messy situations."Interesting. I'll be sure to pass on your message."Meanwhile, in a high-end café, Jack arrived at the entrance. Judging by the interior, he could tell that the person who had arranged to meet him wasn't ordinary. The person had only mentioned they were Felix's friend and nothing else.When he entered the room, Jack was stunned. The wo

How big was Stellar Group? It was a top-rank company in the entire Dragonia. Forget about being a vice president, just passing the layers of screening to work there was something most people could only dream of—the kind of dream that would make you laugh in your sleep. The benefits and perks offered there were unimaginable for an ordinary office worker.Plus, to add one percent of shares in the company, there were simply no words to describe how valuable that was. Most people would grab the pen and sign the contract immediately after seeing it. To put it bluntly, even if Yvonne mistreated them later, they would do it without hesitation.What was more important, poverty or dignity? Only those who had truly experienced it knew the answer.However, Jack didn't hesitate even for a second. His expression darkened, and he stood up."Ms. Cooper, I don't care what your status is. If you dare to harm my buddy, I'll give up my life to drag you down with me!"As he was about to leave, Yvon

The girl's ponytail swayed as she turned around, seemingly having heard the sound. She was indeed very beautiful, with a mix of innocence and allure that was hard to define.The girl bent over in a bow, her eyes sparkling with excitement."I'm Vivian Murphy, the deputy chief of Dragon Alliance's Earthen Hall. I've met the Dragon Lord before."If they weren't outside, Vivian would probably have already kneeled down."So, you're Vivian? It seems you've come a bit early."Felix opened the gate, and Vivian followed closely behind."I have the opportunity to serve the Dragon Lord. How could I let anything else distract me?"Vivian's heart was still far from calm. When Kane had informed her that she would be serving the Dragon Lord directly, the emotion she felt was indescribable.Once inside the living room, Felix gestured for Vivian to sit."To become a deputy chief of one of the Dragon Alliance's subsects at such a young age is an impressive achievement.""Thank you for your pra
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 211
At that moment, Vivian was utterly at a loss. Felix had hurriedly rushed out of the bathroom while in the middle of his shower.Looking at his solid chest, abs, and droplets of water glistening on his body, she felt her breath quicken. She had seen things she definitely shouldn't have seen."Call and gather all the members of Earthen Hall immediately. We're heading to the Great Imperial Sect!" Felix ordered."Got it!" Vivian responded.In the nearby villa, Yvonne received a phone call."Ms. Cooper, just as I was about to act, someone else made the first move. Since I didn't have orders and it all happened suddenly, I can't follow from behind."Oh? Was someone else trying to kidnap Jack?Yvonne frowned. Her missus' plan had been to kidnap Jack and then notify Felix. Since Felix was a martial artist, they wanted to test his capabilities, especially in a state of extreme anger, when a person could perform at their peak. The two contracts were meant as compensation for Jack's kidnap

But once Felix entered the Great Imperial Sect's territory, it would all be beyond everyone's control. Xena knew very well that the Great Imperial Sect still had a Supreme Elder whose strength was unfathomable. No matter how powerful that mysterious woman might be, there was no way she could stir up the slightest trouble here."Mr. Cunningham, how could you…"Xena smiled bitterly. There were things she couldn't say out loud. She was well aware of the kind of person Olly's apprentice was. He was someone who only cared about personal gain. He became arrogant and reckless, thinking he had the sect's support.There was no need to investigate what had happened. Felix must have been the first to discover the snakefruit, and Olly's apprentice had tried to kill him and steal it, only to be killed himself in turn.On this side of the world, people would say he deserved it. However, according to Dragonia's laws, Felix had still committed murder, and there was no doubt he would be charged w

Jaxon frowned, wondering why the mysterious woman hadn't appeared there."Mr. Cunningham! Why does that matter? Let's just get Felix first!"Upon hearing the deputy chief's suggestion, Jaxon nodded and uttered three words."Take him down!"In the next instant, the deputy chief shot forward like an arrow. The stone slabs beneath him cracked with every step, revealing the immense power he possessed.However, Felix stood there with his hands behind his back, seemingly uninterested in making a move."Hmph! And trash like you dares to attack the Dragon Lord?"Vivian disappeared from where she stood, and a muffled bang followed. The deputy chief was sent flying back even faster than he had rushed forward. If not for Jaxon holding him, the deputy chief would have crashed headfirst into the wall."There's not much time left. You'd better make good use of what remains of your five minutes," Vivian said coldly before returning to Felix's side.The development of the situation left the Gr

Ginny reminded herself repeatedly that she was undergoing this treatment so that her future as a martial artist wouldn't be marred by any accidents. She was determined to soldier on despite what might happen. Also, Felix was a professional doctor and thus would surely not have any designs on her.After her maids retreated, Felix stepped forward. Ginny, who had turned her head to the side, not daring to see him, suddenly heard him say, "Can you lead me there?"Curious about what that meant, Ginny looked at him, only to be shocked. Felix, who had covered his eyes with a blindfold, was led forward by her maids, and his hands were brought to rest on a certain spot."Can I begin now, Ms. Longstone?" Felix asked. Warmth suffused Ginny's heart, and gratitude filled her gaze. "Certainly. Thank you, Dr. Zeller."The moment Felix began the massage, Ginny felt heat rise in her core, which made her admire Felix even more. After a while, Ginny felt a scorching heat in her body, and her face

"There's a tiny speck inside your core filled with rimefrost energy. As time passes, this speck will gradually enlarge, reaching a size that will impact your core ten years later," Felix explained. "You may not be in fatal danger when that time comes, but you will experience side effects if you are to fight against someone else. I think I won't need to describe them; you already know."Ginny's mouth was wide with shock. She didn't expect things to be so serious. Practicing the martial arts was what she enjoyed most in this life. If she were to lose the ability to fight as a martial artist one day, it wouldn't be any different from death. "Can this be treated, Dr. Zeller?" This was the first time Ginny spoke to him with respect. She'd come to acknowledge his skill as a doctor."If it can be spotted, of course it can be treated," Felix said. "Take the medicine I give you on time for at least three months while also massaging your core. Three months later, the speck of lingering rimef

Just as Ginny was about to say something, Felix continued, "However, I have detected symptoms of an underlying chronic ailment. She's fine now, but her symptoms will culminate after ten years if persistently ignored."A chronic ailment? Ginny frowned at Felix's serious expression. "Huh? A chronic illness? H-How can it be treated, Dr. Zeller?" Gras asked anxiously. Why would Ginny be afflicted with a chronic illness when she'd never fallen sick throughout the years?Only then did Ginny come back to her senses, more furious than before because this hack of a doctor had almost hoodwinked her. "Nonsense!" she snapped. "I've been practicing the martial arts since I was a kid, and I've never even fallen sick from minor illnesses! I'd never have a chronic illness!"Father," she continued. "This doctor is obviously as mediocre as those scammers from before. He's just here to cheat money out of us. Tell him to leave!"Felix frowned at the accusations. So this was why Ginny was so hostile

Gras instantly wore an expression of concern and began asking Ginny countless questions. Beneath his powerful countenance, he was a man who doted on his daughter."What's wrong, my dear? Does it hurt anywhere?" he asked. "Don't worry. Dr. Zeller is a phenomenal doctor who can treat any illness. I wouldn't have gone so far just to invite him over."His words made Felix have a change of opinion. It seemed that the elders at The Recovery Association hadn't given anyone the permission to approach Felix—they knew as well that keeping a low profile would benefit them more.Obviously, Gras was truly searching for a skilled doctor and had come to Felix, who was recommended by someone reliable. This was better in Felix's opinion. He'd feel awkward if he were to be the Longstones' guest, and he'd rather work for them as a skilled doctor. "I'll have to trouble you with checking her over, Dr. Zeller. I'm sorry for putting you to work immediately after a long journey.""It's fine," Felix re

Even if Felix was eliminated, he could still go back and train hard with his family. If he ended up dead, though, he would lose everything. Five days passed in a flash, and Gras' men had arrived—four martial artists in a carriage. All the villagers, who couldn't bear to say goodbye to Felix, had come to send him off. Not only did Felix not ask for a single cent, but he'd also taught Lincoln medicine. Although Lincoln was still a beginner, he was sure to become more skilled in the future. Having him here would be better than having no doctor, like now. "Mr. Campbell! Take care!" Felix nodded at Leandre once before giving Lincoln a meaningful look.He smiled at Lincoln, who was waving fervently with tears streaming down his face. It was fate that he'd met Lincoln in this unfamiliar village. The martial artists had stayed the night in the village before escorting Felix in the morning. This was the only way to avoid passing by tDesolated Lands at night. The carriage sped up

Felix had told Gras what to say in advance. Only with that would Wagner and his accomplices give up on harming Innswood Village. They'd also pray for the village not to be targeted by thieves and the like, for fear they would be implicated. It was as he'd expected—Wagner and his men were terrified. This method of associating them with everything was far from reasonable, but when subjected to serious pressure, they had no choice but to comply and make repeated promises. When Innswood Village was quiet and peaceful once again, the villagers thanked Felix while also saying their goodbyes. They'd always known that Felix wouldn't stay here for long, but they didn't expect him to leave so soon.Lincoln, particularly, was crushed. He sat in the clinic silently, a sight Felix found hard to bear."Here," Felix said, handing two books to Lincoln, who took them cautiously."What are these books, Felix?" "Medical books I wrote myself," Felix explained. "If you practice and train following

Wagner and his accomplices were terrified, tremors coursing through their bodies. "No, no, please! I didn't know it was you, Mr. Longstone! Give me one more chance, please!"As one of the most powerful men in the city, Gras was someone who would put his money where his mouth was. He could kill them all, and their families wouldn't even dare to utter a single word."I know your father, so I'll give you a chance," Gras said.Only then did Wagner start recovering from his shock, breathing a sigh of relief. He wondered why Gras would come to such a small village, though.Meanwhile, Gras turned to Felix. "You're Dr. Zeller from Innswood Village, aren't you?""Yes, it's me," Felix replied politely. Gras smiled. "I've looked at Kathlynn's injuries, and I could see that you're as skilled as they say. It so happens that I need an experienced doctor in my residence. Would you be willing to work there?"Wagner was speechless. Now he knew why Gras would make the journey here—he had set his

Felix looked at their expressions that were devoid of shame. He'd figured, long ago, that these people might not abide by the three-month-long agreement. As expected, their real intentions began to bleed out by the beginning of the second month. "What if I refuse to do as you say, then? Kathlynn will have to die alongside Innswood Village and me!"Wagner remained unruffled. "Really? Let's go. I'll show you what will happen if you refuse."They returned to the city, only to learn that Felix had told them the truth, proved by how the other doctors were helpless against the venom flowing in Kathlynn's veins. They'd also ascertained the effectiveness of that medicinal powder, which they were unfortunately incapable of making. If the powder hadn't been applied on Kathlynn's body, the venom would have begun to spread through her body eventually.Wagner had never been subjected to such humiliation, though. When it was time to collect the medicine this month, he took on the task. He'd

One of the old men smiled and brought out a half-palm-sized wooden card. He handed it to Felix. "This is our association's identification card. It's custom-made. You see this small hole? There's a bug inside of it."Felix inspected it carefully and found a small hole. He wasn't sure what the bug did, however."When you're in danger, or when someone forces a body check, just break the card, and it'll turn to dust. At the same time, your closest ally will sense it, and the bug will come out of its hole. It'll find your ally and guide them to you."How magical! Felix was quite impressed. There were no phones here, but they had found ways to send information. "We have some queen bugs on our hands. The queen bugs can sense all of the bugs, and when there's a mission, we'll reach out to you. You can live your own life for now."How amazing! A lot of thought had clearly been put into this."There's also one more situation when the bug might come out. When an ally is within 30 feet, it'
