Chapter 362
Author: Dreamy Fire
At Yardley Dining, Felix entered the private room to find George already sipping on some soup.

"Don't mind me, Mr. Zeller. I just couldn't resist having a couple of spoonfuls," George said.

Felix made no comment. Seeming frustrated, he asked, "Did we really have to have lunch together at noon?"

"Of course! After the concert, I'm heading back to Yartford tonight. You have no idea when you'll return to Yartford, so we need to catch up!" George replied.

Then, as if remembering something, he added, "I have a friend coming too. Someone I consider a brother. His background is even more prominent than mine. Is that alright with you?"

Felix picked up the bowl in front of him and took a sip before responding, "Since you've already decided for me, what can I say?"

He knew George meant well. After all, anyone George regarded as a close brother had to be someone significant. Besides, having more friends meant more connections.

But although the world was supposed to work that way, Felix f

    Ryan left after giving his warning. He had only consumed a bowl of soup during their encounter. "Mr. Zeller, I'm so sorry," George said.Felix chuckled in response. "What does it have to do with you? I seem to naturally attract trouble, so it's no big deal."Regardless of what Ryan intended, Felix wouldn't hold back if it came down to a confrontation. George understood that Felix was a reasonable person but couldn't help but show a hint of bitter amusement."To be honest, Mr. Zeller, you really gave me quite a shock! Do you actually have some connection with Lady Nala?" George asked.Seeing George's reaction, Felix sensed something was off. "What's going on? Do you know something?"George sighed, and his eyes flickered with mixed emotions. "In all of Dragonia, anyone capable of stepping into the upper echelons knows that Lady Nala has five admirers, and Ryan is one of them! Let's not talk about the others. Anyway, given her status, all those who pursue her have a great status."

    It would be a lie to say that Michelle was completely unbothered. However, she wasn't one to retaliate with sharp words. Instead, she spoke in a low voice. "We're all colleagues. Is this really necessary?"The two women sneered. "What? You still won't admit you sold a villa with your body? If you can, why don't you sell a few more houses? How ridiculous!""That's right. If you want us to stop casting weird glances at you, you should prove us wrong with your actions. But do you have that ability?" Just as their taunts faded, a colleague, accompanied by a woman, rushed over. "Michelle, this client is looking for you."Michelle quickly turned away, and a signature smile appeared on her face. "Hello, I'm Michelle Smith."The newcomer was Wendy, who looked her up and down before smiling. "I'm Wendy Kinsley. I'd like to buy two villas from you if that's okay?"Michelle could hardly believe her ears. After a moment, she quickly responded with enthusiasm, "Of course! Please follow me. I

    Before George could finish speaking, Michelle had already covered her mouth in shock. The expressions of those around her mirrored her disbelief. It had to be a joke. Rolling two dice could yield a maximum number of 12, which meant potentially buying 12 villas. If that were the case, Michelle would earn so much in commissions that she could kick back and relax.Even though the probability of rolling a 12 was exceedingly low, it didn't matter; the smallest number was two, meaning she would still be making a huge profit. The crowd slowly began to realize that Michelle's success was not merely luck. Clearly, someone powerful was supporting her.Even the sales manager and several members of the management team rushed out, as the commotion was too great to ignore. At that moment, George had already tossed the two dice onto the ground. After rolling around, they came to a stop, prompting everyone to gasp."Wow, it's 12! Why didn't I have this luck when I was gambling?" George muttered,

    The VIP seats were in the middle of the concert hall, closest to the performance stage. Everyone knew they were reserved only for the elites. Naturally, most of them were young people; the older generation was rarely seen. Dreamscape wouldn't invite them, either.The VIP seats were all large, single-person couches with unmatched comfort. Beside each couch was a small table with various fruits and drinks.George was one of the earliest to arrive. He had nodded repeatedly to many people he knew, although not to the extent of standing up and greeting them. A polite nod was more than enough.However, he had to stand for some people, such as Nala, who was just passing by him now."Lady Nala, I can't believe you actually came."Nala, as always, wore her veil. Whenever people saw her, there was an urge to lift the veil, though none had the courage."Hmm."With a slight nod, Nala continued onward with Yvonne by her side."Could you let me say a few words to Yvonne?"Without breaking h

    "You'll bring me in? What do you mean?" Felix asked, frowning. He didn't recall Xena ever inviting him to the concert."Oh, don't be so coy. I'm in charge of security for this concert, so bringing you in shouldn't be an issue for me." Xena retorted.Felix glanced subtly in Alistair's direction and suddenly understood what was happening."Thank you for the gesture, but Alistair's already left. You don't need to put on this fake show of affection with me."Had Alistair left? Xena turned slightly, confirming that Alistair had indeed already moved off with his team. As always, he was meticulous. Even though he saw Felix, he hadn't stopped to greet him and only focused on his duties."Now that I've made the offer, I won't go back on it! You came all this way to see Dreamscape's concert, right? I'll take you in," Xena insisted.Felix chuckled coldly. If this had been anyone's first encounter with Xena, they might have mistaken her for a gentle, understanding woman. But the truth was th

    "Yes, my mistake," George said apologetically.But what had happened had already happened. Felix hadn't been wrong. Initially, everyone focused on the pre-show program on stage, and no one noticed Felix until George came over to his side.Nala and Yvonne were among the first to notice. Their expressions changed upon seeing Felix."Interesting. Felix got an invitation to Dreamscape's concert, too?" Nala mused.Yvonne, however, seemed puzzled. "Lady Nala, isn't it normal for him to be invited, considering he's the top young medical talent in Dragonia?"Nala's gaze returned to the stage before she replied, "You don't understand. Dreamscape's invitation criteria aren't that straightforward. Take a closer look. Why is Ryan the only one here out of the five who are pursuing me? Is he more talented than the other four or the leader in some field?"Yvonne paused, realizing she had been wondering the same thing. If Ryan was here, why hadn't the other four shown up?"I can't explain why,

    Dreamscape invited Felix backstage? He was taken aback. Truth be told, he didn't know Dreamscape, nor had he ever paid her much attention. Why, then, had she singled him out and invited him backstage?Seeing him hesitate, the manager nearly slapped him on the spot. If it weren't for Dreamscape's instructions to treat him politely, she would have let her anger flare.Was he joking? This was an invitation from Dreamscape herself—a face-to-face meeting!Anyone else would have been overjoyed and wouldn't hesitate for a second, but here he was, actually thinking it over."Fine, I'll go with you." Felix finally rose, curious about what Dreamscape wanted from him.As he followed the manager, everyone in the VIP area turned and looked. It was an unprecedented sight."Oh? Could it be that Felix knows the mysterious Dreamscape? If so, that might explain why he was invited to the concert," Nala murmured.She made no further comment as she stood to leave. Yvonne, who was about to share her

    Felix nodded earnestly. "It was incredible, Delilah. It was truly moving. I'm not exaggerating."Receiving Felix's praise, Delilah's expression lit up with happiness. However, she soon pouted her lips."I thought you'd be so smitten with someone else that you wouldn't even have the heart to listen to my concert," Delilah said grumpily."Huh?" Felix blinked in confusion. "What do you mean?"She extended a slender finger and tapped his chest. Feigning an accusing tone, she said, "Don't play dumb! Leslie has everything in all the right places and sizes. Am I wrong?""Uh!" Felix took a step back, genuinely startled.He stammered as he tried to respond, "How… how do you know about that?"Delilah remained quiet, sinking back onto the couch and fixing Felix with a direct, piercing gaze that made his scalp tingle.Felix quickly started explaining, "Delilah, I had no choice! Didn't Leslie explain it to you? She was poisoned, and I did what I had to do!"Delilah laughed. "Silly, did you

    Donna nodded. Honestly, she herself felt tempted. Devouring such a soul would bring immeasurable growth, so no S-tier Malevolent Phantom could possibly pass up such an opportunity. Donna said, "But Felix, remember this. If that so-called soul fragment wins, it's your problem to deal with. But if Malachar wins, you must finish it off within one minute! "We S-tier Malevolent Phantoms can fully absorb a soul within a minute. You should know exactly how much stronger Malachar would become afterward." Felix gave a cold laugh, not bothering to respond. The moment the battle was decided, Malachar would attack relentlessly in the very next second—Felix would have less than one minute to react. Regardless of who won or lost, this was definitely going to happen no matter what. "By the way, can the Mystical Explosive Orb only capture a Malevolent Phantom's soul essence?" Donna smiled bitterly. "That's how the orb was designed. Thanks for your concern. I know what you're thinking. If the

    Throughout Dragonia's history, there had been countless super geniuses whose existence was simply beyond description. What made the Malevolent Phantoms so special? Just because someone was from out of town didn't mean they know better, right? Felix had no idea why he felt so confident about his current plan. "Let's give it a try first." Clearly, no matter how much he tried to convince Donna, she still believed S-tier Malevolent Phantoms were stronger. She was so confident of this because she knew too well what Malevolent Phantoms were like. Before they began, Donna warned him again, "Are you sure he can handle the pressure when I unleash all my soul energy? One wrong move, and his soul will completely collapse." Felix was about to respond, but Benjamin had already answered, "It's fine. Go ahead. If I die from this, then it's what fate intended." Seeing the new look on Benjamin's face, Felix couldn't help but gulp. He felt as if an army of thousands was charging toward him, an

    Similarly, after reaching Superior Soul Realm, Felix could use another secret technique from the Phaeron Codex called the Soulweave technique. It wasn't an attack. It resembled something like the Spirit Eye, which was reserved only for support.The Soulweave technique was to merge different soul-bound weapons and turn them into a different weapon. There was a high chance the new soul-bound weapons would surpass the original weapon by at least a level. Of course, there was also the probability of failure and getting nothing from it. The chance of success or failure was never predictable. It was all up to fate.Back when Felix infiltrated Rebirth Sect, he was excited. However, after seeing what the technique did, he almost burst a blood vessel from how frustrated he was. Soul-bound weapons only recognized their owner, let alone anything else.If the owner didn't take the bound away, the weapon would also disappear after its owner's death. So, didn't that mean Felix's new technique w

    Felix felt a little confused now, looking directly at Benjamin. He didn't need to explain anymore to show what he meant."You have the Scholar's Arsenal in your body, and the calling will grow stronger. If you can resist it until the end, the Scholar's Arsenal will definitely attack you. You won't be able to take back the soul consciousness anymore."Benjamin quickly added, "Of course, don't try to do that. If you do, it will sense it as well!"After hearing that, Felix felt a little silly. If one could easily escape from the trap, it wouldn't be Francis' trap."Since you're here, there should be a way, right?" Fortunately, Benjamin nodded. "Yes. After all, I've been with Francis for so many years. I know bits and pieces. I can self-destruct my soul and cause serious damage to Francis' soul. Once his core is exposed, you can kill his soul."What? Self-destructing his soul? Felix was really surprised. "No, that won't work! I can't accept sacrificing you to save me! There must be

    "That's right! Did you think that only King Aurelius wanted immortality? Francis did, too! Otherwise, why would he help King Aurelius find the elixir of eternal life? He just relied on the resources King Aurelius supplied him to fulfill his dream."Unfortunately, there was no elixir of eternal life. That was why Francis disappeared. However, he truly is a genius and found ways to immortality through other means."At this point, Felix became curious. Of course, anyone would be curious if they were hearing something that hadn't been mentioned in history books."Benjamin, if Francis is so powerful, why did he escape? Could King Aurelius really have killed him?"Benjamin's expression looked strange. It seemed like he wanted to say something but didn't know how. In the end, he still said, "That's King Aurelius! The one who united the six kingdoms, a true king! The dragon energy that emitted from him couldn't compare to anyone!"King Aurelius is also a martial artist himself! Once he fi

    "You little rascal! Benjamin finally recovered temporarily. Considering I have some things that need to be dealt with, I told him to go with you. Send him back as soon as possible after dealing with them," the note said.Despite not fighting Benjamin from the start, Felix could only imagine how terrifying he was. No matter how Benjamin survived to this day, he must've been a monster that had lived for thousands of years.Especially now, with someone like Malachar pursuing him, it was like getting sent 100 million dollars when he was in debt. "Benjamin, are you really okay now?" Felix asked cautiously.Benjamin smiled reluctantly. "I can at least be considered a human. Although I haven't fully recovered, I'm already quite satisfied. But the doctor said he can fully heal me."As he spoke, awe flashed in Benjamin's eyes. "You truly exude the energy of my liege… Some things really cannot be said. If I hadn't met you back then, who knows what I would be now?"Of course, the energy he

    So, that was why… Felix couldn't mistrust Donna, either. The Mystical Explosive Orb absorbed a lot of soul essence and helped his soul strength grow. Donna wasn't a fool, and of course, she could sense the growth.So, how could she give it up so easily? Yet, she still said such helpless words. Felix wondered if Dahlia and Karina could help him kill Malachar. As soon as he thought of this, he quickly dismissed the idea.He had seen the horrors of S-tier Malevolent Phantoms with his own eyes. He couldn't involve his fellow apprentices because of this… After all, this was related to life, and it wasn't a small fight."Take the Mystical Explosive Orb back. I won't have any use for it anymore. If I meet Malachar again, it'll just end up being snatched away by him."Donna could barely hold back her conflicted emotions. She was so excited as the orb had recently absorbed a powerful soul just a week ago, and it proved that her choice was right.However, she had to give it all up now. Ho

    Malachar's body trembled slightly. A precious soul essence was actually given to a human by an S-tier Malevolent Phantom? What a waste!Besides, how could an S-tier Malevolent Phantom protect a human like this? This was completely incomprehensible to Malachar!"Once I find out who it is, I'll make sure they'll never stand among other S-tier Malevolent Phantoms! How dare you protect humans!" he spat out angrily, walking toward Anson.He gave Anson a look of contempt before leaving. By this point, Felix was already beyond Malachar's sensing range. Malachar didn't even know where to start if he wanted to chase after Felix. Naturally, he could only wait for his next chance.…As night fell, Felix opened the door to a hotel suite to welcome Donna, who had just arrived. "The S-tier Malevolent Phantom claims to be Malachar, and I figured out that he and Hall of Souls are working together. Maybe because they lost several Black Soul Scouts and the entire laboratory recently, he's despe

    Malachar's face showed a hint of mockery. "No way I've mistaken you. I'm being guided to you, after all."Anson stood at a distance, obviously the so-called guide. No one else was around, after all."You've ruined so many Hall of Souls' good plans. So, you deserve to die!" Hall of Souls? Felix's expression turned ugly. He didn't expect Hall of Souls was actually working with S-tier Malevolent Phantoms. Yet, he had seen it with his own eyes this time."I didn't expect an S-tier Malevolent Phantom to act like a pawn for us humans. How admirable!" However, Malachar wasn't offended at all. "You humans are really good with words, but do you really think I'm fooled? Besides, Hall of Souls is 'my' pawn. This relationship will never change—not now and not ever."He moved, just a little. "Alright. I think I've said enough. I'll send you off now."Anson, who stood a little bit away, had no expression on. For him, it was best for Felix to die like this. Otherwise, Anson was sure to be th
