Jack did not know who this "miss" was that Yvonne referred to with such respect, but he focused entirely on the concert mention. "Please thank her for her kindness, but I'll have to decline," Felix responded, puzzled by the invitation.He had not really shown his medical skills during the competition with Guneria, so it was strange that Nala was suddenly so interested in him. Not only had she not been angry when he declined her dinner invitation, but now she was offering concert tickets."I understand. I'll relay your response," Yvonne said before hanging up. Before Jack could speak, another call came in—this time from Sherlyn, whom Felix had not heard from in a while. "Hello, Ms. Holt," Felix answered."Hey! Can't you just call me Sherlyn?" she protested.Felix felt awkward with Jack sitting right there. "Go ahead, Sherlyn. I'm listening." "That's better! You must know about Dreamscape's concert in Canraville, right? Would you like to go with me? You won't say no, will y

"Fine, two tickets it is. I'm easy to please," Jack conceded.After reaching Canraville, Jack was furious to learn that Stellar Group's executives had made a surprise visit to the Avesburgh office. He had to rush back by train, as entertaining the executives that evening was non-negotiable.…At New Glory's luxury real estate office, only a few sales agents were with clients, as such high-end properties naturally drew limited customers. Just as the last clients left, a sharp slap echoed through the office, drawing everyone's attention. "Ms. Martinez, w-why did you hit me?" Michelle Smith asked in disbelief, holding her cheek."Why? You worthless bitch! I lost a villa sale because you offended my clients. Tell me—don't you deserve that slap?" Julia Martinez snapped.Michelle fought back tears as she defended herself, "They tried to get handsy, and I didn't even say anything—I just walked away! How is it my fault if they won't buy?" Julia pointed at Michelle angrily, her eyes

Julia felt justified in her attitude, both from her assumptions and because financial checks were indeed required to purchase at New Glory—it was company policy. Looking at Felix's attire, with no designer labels and not even a luxury watch that any successful person would wear, Julia was convinced he was just a nobody trying to show off. Felix remained calm. "A financial check? Where do we do that?""We can verify it right here," Julia said with a smirk, thinking Felix was just another shameless person. Someone quickly brought over a card reader while the other agents shared Julia's skepticism about Felix's buying power. Only Michelle inexplicably believed in him, though her position made her hesitant to speak up."Sir, please present your bank card and enter your PIN here. The machine won't charge you—it just needs to verify you have at least ten million dollars in available funds. The light will turn green if successful," Aaron Turner explained.Felix nodded and handed

Suddenly, Felix slapped Julia twice and yelled at her, "Listen here! Michelle is my cousin, and you're getting off easy with just two slaps. Now get out of her!"No one thought Felix's actions were rude. Instead, everyone seemed to find them justified. Even Julia had to back away with an apologetic smile—such was the difference in their social standing.After reaching the VIP reception room, the manager quietly excused himself while Michelle remained extremely nervous."I'm sorry about earlier. I just can't stand seeing injustice, and I was only planning to buy a villa when I saw you being bullied. That's why I stepped in, and I hope you don't mind that I called you my cousin," Felix explained.Michelle finally relaxed at his explanation, as his words put her previous concerns at ease."Thank you, Mr. Zeller. There aren't many people like you these days," she said gratefully."Please, call me Felix. Let's go check out the villas. If I find one I like, I'll buy it immediately. I p

The others looked at Felix with similar contempt, clearly disapproving of Jack and Vanessa's relationship. The Dreamscape concert was the hot topic of the moment, making it the perfect tool for their mockery. Moreover, these were Section A tickets—something even many wealthy people could not get their hands on, let alone what they considered a country bumpkin from Avesburgh like Jack.A strange glint flashed in Felix's eyes, but before he could speak, the woman who had greeted him intervened. She scolded, "Robert! Nessa's already talked about this, and you know her temper! Can't you tone it down?" The woman then tugged at Felix's sleeve and added, "Don't mind him—he just likes to joke around. Please, have a seat."Robert Sharkey tucked the tickets away, and his expression softened slightly. "I'm just trying to be nice here, not insult you. Our circle isn't something ordinary people can just join, and Nessa has other admirers. You'll be in trouble once your name gets out there."

"So the delivery fee alone starts at a million dollars?" Felix thought to himself, amazed at the extravagant cost. It seemed incredibly expensive, but then he realized there were plenty of ultra-wealthy people who valued this level of service. For them, it was not about the cost—it was about the prestige."Which one of us would even qualify to receive something from Royal Elite?" Robert asked after recovering from his shock. No one answered, which made the situation even more intriguing.Anyone who used Royal Elite Courier Service had to be extremely wealthy and prestigious, and the recipients were usually just as notable. Moreover, Royal Elite was known for its in-person signatures and perfect delivery record—even a single mistake would be scandalous and damage its reputation. Just then, another person in a purple suit, though notably darker than the others, entered carrying an exquisite square box with both hands. Everyone watched as he approached Felix and stopped. "Mr. Zel

Vanessa's eyes narrowed as she shot Robert an icy glare. "Robert, didn't I specifically warn you about looking down on Jack and his friend? What's your problem?"Given their years of friendship, Robert was not particularly bothered by Vanessa's confrontation. However, Felix's actions had thoroughly infuriated him.Robert replied, "I'm just giving them a reality check. Nessa, you know how I am. But Felix, calling me out like this in front of everyone, is crossing a line. Do you think getting some fancy delivery service makes you better than me? The waters in Canraville run deeper than you can imagine!" Instead of apologizing, Robert became even more hostile. Vanessa was furious, but before she could speak, Felix held up his hand to stop her."That's not the point here; the main issue is that a real man keeps his word about making an apology," Felix stated calmly.He was already acting considerate for Vanessa's sake, but if Robert insisted on being disrespectful, he had other ways

"Felix! Are you out of your mind? You're seriously not planning to go?" Vanessa's voice was filled with disbelief."Nope," he replied simply. His brief response sent chills down everyone's spine, as only someone completely clueless would say something like that."You have to go. Those VIP seats at Dreamscape's concert are incredibly rare," Vanessa insisted with absolute seriousness. "I can personally guarantee that if you don't show up, every Dreamscape fan in Dragonia will make your life a living hell."Felix looked up at Vanessa, and upon seeing her dead serious expression, he could only nod in resignation. "Fine, I'll go."At that moment, Robert approached them with an awkward smile plastered on his face. "Um, Mr. Zeller, I was wrong earlier. I'm really sorry. I hope you'll forgive me, for Nessa's sake at least."The contents of that box completely humbled Robert. He knew the consequences would be severe if he did not apologize now.When Felix remained silent, Robert quickly a

About 20 minutes later, Marley sent another message. "At the supermarket now."Almost simultaneously, Felix finally detected a martial artist within his domain. He mumbled, "Early-stage Blood Realm?"That was not much in Martial City, but it was considered a high-level martial artist in the capital. Either it was just a coincidence, or there was a strong chance this person was the one who had dropped off the solution.Felix picked up his groceries and casually moved toward the checkout counter near the storage lockers, all while keeping his domain locked onto the early-stage Blood Realm martial artist. The man was about 30 feet away, pretending to inspect apples. He was careful, moving naturally and avoiding anything suspicious. However, that was pointless under Felix's domain. Sure enough, he was watching the locker.The man finally relaxed only after the disguised Khalil arrived and retrieved the package. He grabbed two bags of fruit and headed for checkout.Felix exited the s

Phil acted like he had not heard Angie and continued walking. However, he suddenly stopped just as he took a few more steps. When he turned around, his expression had completely changed.He asked, "What did you say his name was?"Upon sensing a shift in the situation, Angie quickly answered, "Felix Zeller.""He's the one who wants to see me?""Yes!"Phil was visibly unsettled now. After a brief pause, he finally said, "Alright. Let's go."Carlos was stunned, wondering what the hell was going on. Did Felix really have connections in Newtown?When they arrived at the private dining room, Phil visibly flinched the moment he laid eyes on Felix. He quickly greeted, "Sir!"That single word sent shivers down Angie's and Carlos' spines. The difference in status was so glaringly obvious that it was downright terrifying. Felix did not recognize the young man, but anyone with ties to Newtown would undoubtedly know him.Felix immediately ordered, "Arrange for the Sinclairs to open their r
Chapter 1218
"Alright, alright, I'll do it—just stop shaking my arm, you're gonna rip it off," Felix replied.He had always preferred friends who did not allow their status to create distance. Jack was the same way—if he needed something, he wouldn't play games; he would just call and ask directly.Lindsay lit up with excitement. "I knew you'd come through! Angie, what do you think? Maybe you should marry him as a thank-you!"Angie was completely stunned, wondering if Felix was serious and could even pull strings in Newtown.Just then, Felix said, "You just need to bring that guy to see me."Angel immediately went to the private room. Lindsay had fought to get her this chance, and she would be the biggest fool alive if she let it slip away.Just as she reached the private dining room, a middle-aged man stepped out. She greeted, "Dad."The man was none other than Angie's father, Carlos Sinclair. He asked, "Angie, where are you going?"Without hesitation, Angie laid everything out.Carlos f

The eerie transformation played out in front of everyone, yet not a single person looked surprised. In mere moments, the man had completely taken on Stewart's appearance—it was almost impossible to tell them apart.Felix said approvingly, "Not bad. Unless someone gets close enough to inspect, they'll never notice the difference."After confirming earlier that the solution had successfully eliminated Chloe's body odor, Felix immediately contacted Xena and requested reinforcements from headquarters. Instead of fighters, he asked for skilled operatives who could impersonate Stewart and two other dentists connected to the case.The mastermind behind this would not be switching locations after every move—it was a cycle. Eventually, they would use one of these three dentists again, and whoever got the next call would lead them to the source.Felix had prepared this plan in advance. The actual execution depended on the details Stewart provided, and now that they had those, it was time to

Felix would never call himself an expert when it came to soul manipulation. Meanwhile, Stewart sat stiffly, his face devoid of emotion. A moment later, Marley emerged from the side room with two others."Who told you to use that solution during the dental cleaning for body odor patients?" Felix got straight to the point.Stewart remained expressionless as he answered, "I don't know. I just got a random call telling me to pick up a package from a locker at a supermarket. "They said when a patient with body odor came in, I should use the solution during their cleaning. Along with the solution, there were 50 thousand dollars—I couldn't resist, so I did as I was told."Marley frowned after hearing that. "Just as you suspected, sir, they're being extremely cautious."If Stewart had received his instructions this way, the dentists at the clinics visited by the two deceased victims would likely have followed the same pattern. They pressed Stewart with more questions, but none of his ans

Chloe stepped into the treatment room and found herself face-to-face with a middle-aged doctor, Stewart. He looked like he was in his 40s and was wearing a surgical mask.He said, "Hello! Lie down.""Alright," Chloe mumbled. She followed the instructions given by the person on the street—pay the fee, stay silent, and go through with a routine cleaning. Coincidentally, she had actually gotten her teeth cleaned before, so the entire procedure felt exactly the same. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary. However, she could not help but wonder if this could actually cure her body odor. Just then, Stewart said, "You're all set. You can leave now."Chloe wanted to ask more questions but held herself back. She stepped out of the dental clinic and walked a block in the agreed-upon direction before Felix appeared."Open your mouth," Felix said. Then, he swirled a cotton swab inside her mouth and examined it closely in the light.Just like that, he already knew what was going on.Chloe as

Donna explained, "I call them hybrids because they aren't real Malevolent Phantoms. They just inherit certain traits, which aren't always the same! "For example, some might have regenerative abilities purely on a physical level—this doesn't require soul energy. Their bodies just heal on their own. Others might inherit aspects related to soul energy, but overall, there's no fixed rule."However, one thing is certain. At least from what I know, Malevolent Phantoms cannot truly reproduce by merging with other species. No matter what, they won't give birth to a real Malevolent Phantom."Felix latched onto that last sentence, his grip tightening as he quickly asked, "Then, if they aren't real Malevolent Phantoms, does that mean whoever's controlling you guys can't reclaim them?"Donna replied, "Exactly! A hybrid is just that—a hybrid. Think of it like ligers, the lion-tiger hybrids humans breed. They're entirely new species. How could the ones controlling us possibly reclaim them?"Fe

Felix nearly choked on his own spit. He quickly cleared his throat and blurted out, "You sure you called the right person?"For a second, he panicked. If anyone else had overheard that, they would have thought Xena was announcing his child's birth.Xena replied, "No mistake. I was just too shocked. This is huge."Felix frowned and asked, "Alright… Then, why are you telling me about this?"Xena's tone turned serious. "Felix, we've been monitoring a Malevolent Phantom for a while. We finally took it down. But here's the thing—its wife was already pregnant, and just now… she gave birth."Felix's expression darkened as he thought, "Its wife? No—more accurately, the wife of the human the Malevolent Phantom has replaced."He mumbled aloud, "Are you saying…""You guessed it," Xena confirmed grimly. "To be sure, we called in Dr. Morris. He made a small incision on the newborn's arm, and the wound healed instantly."Felix gasped, wondering what the hell was going on. The idea of a Malev

Felix remarked, "You sure know a lot."He sighed. At this point, he had given up on being surprised—Billy seemed to know everything.Billy replied, "I was just thinking out loud, really. But Mr. Hoffman didn't tell you, and he didn't warn you not to listen to me, either… which probably means he's already given his silent approval!"He added, "When you reach peak Grandmaster, the nine Dragonspine fragments will completely dissolve. Normally, they would merge into your body, unleashing an indescribable energy that continuously strengthens your physique. "Now imagine that—combined with Dragon Punches—how powerful you'd be."Dragon Punches was a technique that had only appeared after Felix had gathered the final Dragonspine fragment and ascended to Grandmaster. Yet, somehow, Billy knew about it, too.All the techniques recorded in Dragons Destroyer had vanished, leaving behind only Dragon Punches—a purely physical combat technique. He had never used it before because he had not enco
