"Whatever," Felix said, feeling exasperated. Sasha was probably the first person he'd ever met who would resent the person who'd saved her."You can't refute me, can you? Anyway, think about how long it took you to arrive after I told you to come! If you'd arrived earlier, you could've drank with Mr. Barton on my behalf. None of this would've even happened!" Sasha snapped.Felix knew martial arts and seemed to be quite good in a fight—if Ivan's words could be trusted. Yet, in the end, he'd let Saul off the hook just like that. Sasha didn't believe Felix would've allowed the matter to slide so easily if the woman he loved had been in her situation.They finally arrived at the Quinton residence. Warren and Nattie were home, and Felix had completed his mission. Thus, he said, "I'm leaving, Uncle Warren.""Alright. Drive safe."Sasha burst into tears almost as soon as Felix was gone. Warren hurried over to her, his heartache clear. "What's wrong, Sasha?""I was almost raped, Dad,"

Xena had actually ordered Felix to stay away from his villa for a whole week. Who was she joking? Why did he have to get her permission to stay in his own house? She was abusing her power, wasn't she?Seemingly expecting Felix to react like this, Belle said frostily, "Look closely, Felix! This is a military order. If you refuse to comply, we can arrest you and lock you up for a week—your villa will still end up empty. The choice is yours."Felix looked at the regulatory permit. He couldn't deny that Xena had indeed signed the permit in her capacity as a goddess of war. It was also stamped with the Phoenix Legion's official stamp. If he were to go against them, he wouldn't even be able to lodge a complaint."Fine, then. I'll do as you say." Felix left, feeling a little mad at himself. Why did he have to get mad at a woman? He could've just agreed to do as Xena ordered and secretly returned if he wanted. No one would notice him, let alone stop him.He figured that his villa wasn't

Ironhulk looked at his subordinate. "Go and drag Sasha Quinton to the dog farm. Since this Felix Zeller is so powerful, I'd like to see whether he can save her twice."…Two hours later, sometime past 1:00 am, Felix appeared at Kane's house."I'm so sorry to disturb you at this hour, Mr. Zeller. I should've been the one to go to you," Kane said, looking distressed. Felix himself had mentioned that Kane could contact him anytime if he had news on the herbs.So, he'd called Felix upon returning from his trip to another city. He'd suggested heading over to Felix's villa, but the latter had said he would come over instead.Felix said, "It's not too convenient to meet at my place for the time being."How could they discuss anything if he couldn't even turn the lights on at his villa? He didn't want to have anything to do with Xena before Curtis woke up. Sasha was already enough trouble for him. "Did you really get the things?"Kane nodded and had someone bring them two bunches of her

Felix's brows were tightly furrowed on the journey to Hairot Dog Farm. "Why did you bring so many guns along?"Kane hurriedly explained, "Ironhulk is in the business of arms and weaponry, Mr. Zeller. He has many men reporting to him and a whole lot of guns. He's considered important in Avesburgh's underground circles. He might not dare to challenge me, but we do need to keep ourselves safe from him."Felix's expression turned odd. "You're afraid of mere guns?"Kane smiled bitterly. Only then did it occur to him who Felix really was. "I apologize, Mr. Zeller. I overstepped my boundaries."…Sasha was bound to a chair in the courtyard of Hairot Dog Farm. She no longer had tears to shed, and she was so terrified that she kept mumbling to herself. "This has nothing to do with me, I swear. Felix is the one behind this. Please, let me go."Ironhulk glared at her from his seat nearby. "Say another word, and I'll have my men take you inside."Sasha immediately shut up. Her hatred for Fe

Felix felt resigned as he looked at the scene before him. He didn't want Kane to make an appearance. He'd only brought the latter along just in case. It looked like it would be hard to get Sasha, who was fully conscious, out of here without things getting bloody.Meanwhile, Sasha's fear and horror had turned to despair at the sight of all the guns. To any regular individual, seeing a gun was about the scariest thing that could happen to them. She knew that Felix was dead meat, which also meant she was doomed.Suddenly, she regretted everything. She wouldn't have met Saul if not for her agreeing to help Ted take Felix down, and none of this would've happened.At that moment, Felix snapped his fingers. Someone got out of the Range Rover's driver's seat. Ironhulk's expression changed drastically when he saw who it was. "L-Lord Kane?"Kane stood beside Felix and said coldly, "You've got guts, Ironhulk. How dare you try to pick on my distant relative? Even I have to address him as Mr.

Warren's roar was just as Felix imagined. After all, Sasha had been abducted by Ironhulk in the middle of the night. How could her family be unbothered?"Uncle Warren, Sasha's safe. I'm sending her home now," Felix said."I'll be waiting!" Warren boomed. Felix could tell that Warren was genuinely furious this time. Felix also clearly knew that Sasha had been abducted precisely because of him.When they arrived at Silverwood, Nattie was in tears. "Sasha!"Felix placed Sasha on the couch and said, "She's fine. She just passed out."At least Sasha wasn't tortured—this was the only thing that reassured Felix."You animal! Get lost! You're nothing but trouble, and you've even dragged our family into this. Warren and I were beaten up, and all you did was a simple bandage job. Get out of here!" Nattie demanded.Felix said nothing in reply. He only approached Warren while gazing at him. "Tell me honestly. How have I treated you?" Warren asked."You've treated me as your godson, Uncle
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 72
Although the information shocked Warren, he quickly frowned and said, "So what? As Lord Kane's distant relative, he couldn't handle trouble like this and even affected you. "This means that Felix has offended someone far more dangerous and beyond our reach! From now on, Felix no longer has anything to do with our family. This might sound irresponsible, but it's for your safety."After he was done speaking, Warren turned and left. Only he knew whether he genuinely intended to cut ties with Felix."Mom!" Sasha looked helplessly at Nattie, who was still in the bedroom. Reflecting on Felix's actions, Sasha realized that Felix had never deceived or pretended. All of his past actions were absolutely genuine.Just the fact that he was Kane's relative had enabled him to accomplish things easily. Besides, Felix had saved her twice. She had to marry him—how could she wait for other women to throw themselves into his arms?Nattie said, "Sasha, if Felix really is Lord Kane's relative, then l

Completely unbothered, Xena sneered. It seemed that Felix was giving Ted a chance, but it was just Felix's attempt to involve her and rid himself of these troubles once and for all.He was just a reckless brute who knew martial arts. He should've evaluated his own capabilities before acting impulsively.Now, the damage was done, and people were starting to take revenge. Only then did Felix realize the danger. How ridiculous!So what if he was a martial artist? Perry's Golden Chamber of Commerce had developed significantly over the years with Xena's hidden assistance. They could easily take Felix down by relying solely on themselves.Besides, Felix definitely didn't qualify to pursue her if he couldn't even get past Ted.…In Sapphire Paragon, a high-end restaurant in Avesburgh, Sabrina was having lunch with Lawrence Schneider. He was a plump, middle-aged man.Suddenly, his expression changed as he received a phone call. He quickly wiped his mouth and said, "Babe, go ahead with

"Back then, I was an S-rank Malevolent Phantom," Donna said. "There were tons of restrictions placed on me, so I couldn't say much even if I wanted to. "But now that I've reforged my soul, those restrictions are gone. My soul power and memories are all intact, so you should understand what that means."Felix's interest immediately sparked. He knew almost nothing about the Rank-Ascending Competition, and neither did Gerald. Funny how a former Malevolent Phantom might actually be his best source of information."I don't know everything, but I can tell you what I do know, as it could be of a little help. First off, our wave of Malevolent Phantoms was just the first. "The next group coming will be from the Orion family. They're extremely powerful. One of their ancestors won the Rank-Ascending Competition generations ago. They've already contacted multiple planets, and Earth is their next target."That caught Felix's attention, as Gerald had mentioned something about powerful familie

Felix was startled. Cordelia's reaction meant something serious had happened."Mom! What's wrong?" he asked.It wasn't until he spoke that Cordelia seemed to realize her beloved Felix was awake. Without a second thought, she rushed over to him. "Felix, you're awake? Are you feeling okay? When we found you, you were covered in blood from head to toe."Felix wasn't concerned about himself."I'm fine, really. But what about you, Mom? What happened?"His question seemed to snap her out of it. Since he was alright, her expression lit up with joy."I'm just so happy. It's amazing news! Nerissa is pregnant!"Felix froze, completely caught off guard. Soon, panic kicked in. "She's pregnant? Wait. Does that mean I'm going to be a dad?"Even Nerissa looked shocked. She had only started noticing some symptoms and had gone for a checkup with Cordelia. She hadn't expected to be pregnant for real."That's right, you little rascal! Now do you see? Your mom's instincts were spot on! Look at

Just then, the Ancient Sage's meridians finally stabilized. Without wasting a second, he unleashed his strongest move once again."Lightning Matrix!"A huge mouthful of blood burst from his lips. His face went deathly pale as he activated the secret technique. Disregarding the harm he was inflicting on his body, he struck Felix. This time, he unleashed the true Lightning Matrix, not the lighter version he used against Felix previously. "Bring it on!" Felix was completely fearless now. Although his energy was locked in place and his body was paralyzed, he radiated power."I'm about to compete in the Rank-Ascending Competition. There's no way I'll die here."It was like something inside him snapped. Felix suddenly burst into motion. Instead of passively handling the attacks, he charged straight toward the three lightning palms crashing down on him.Even the Ancient Sage was shaken. He could hardly believe that a battle could escalate to this level.When the smoke finally cleared,

At that moment, within the dark clouds above, lightning began to gather. Soon, even the naked eye could see it taking the shape of a massive human palm. Felix unleashed his Dragon Punches, throwing everything he had to take down the enormous lightning palm that was crashing down on him.At that moment, Auroris emerged from the sand. Despite its disheveled fur and obvious injuries, it showed no fear of death. Standing beside Felix, it was ready to face the Ancient Sage's terrifying attack.A deafening explosion filled the air, forming a massive crater in the ground. It was more horrifying than before. A wave of sand was blasted upward, suspended for a few seconds before falling back to the ground. Stray arcs of lightning crackled in the air."What a pity," the Ancient Sage said.His breath was a little ragged. During the intense battle, his final strike had pushed his body to its limit. He felt sorry that Auroris, the beast he had grown fond of, had perished with Felix.A sudden

"You old fool! How dare you think of laying your hands on my friend? You're asking for death!" Felix roared.He coughed up blood uncontrollably, and with a thought, Auroris charged straight at the Ancient Sage.While taking advantage of the opportunity, Felix used the Seven Points of Transcendence to heal himself. With Auroris's help, he believed he could now go toe-to-toe with the Ancient Sage."Ha! This is truly excellent!" The Ancient Sage was overjoyed as he fought with Auroris. Though Auroris's strength couldn't match his own, each of Auroris's attacks was infused with a soul component, which made them incredibly formidable.The Ancient Sage felt that such a rare beast was wasted on Felix. "You little thing, why don't you just acknowledge me as your master?"Having evolved once more, Auroris had grown significantly stronger. Its intelligence was never in question—when it saw that its soul-based attacks did not affect the Ancient Sage, it immediately shifted its focus entire

As they spoke, Felix had already activated Lone Paragon, specifically its enhancement for martial strength.The saying "strike first to gain the upper hand" held especially true when facing someone as powerful as the Ancient Sage. At that moment, the Phaeron Projection appeared, and one of the most powerful secret techniques from the Six Word Mantra was unleashed in a sudden strike.The next instant, Felix's expression changed drastically. He raised his arms with a crack, and after a deafening impact, he was thrown backward."Hmph! How dare you show off such petty tricks in front of me?" The Ancient Sage scoffed. "Stick to your own path."Felix gave a bitter smile. Clearly, the Ancient Sage had more than just that soul-reflecting mirror among his collection of treasures.After defeating the S-tier Malevolent Phantoms, Felix had already reached Aetherium Realm, so his soul energy was pretty formidable.Yet, even with that powerful soul attack, he hadn't managed to injure the Ancie

After returning to Newtown, Felix's life gradually settled into a steady rhythm. Naturally, he informed his family about his upcoming departure.Thankfully, both Cordelia and Nerissa were understanding people. They didn't question him. Instead, they offered their full support and encouragement.Jack, Madeline, and the others also made a trip to Newtown at Felix's invitation. He didn't tell them anything specific, treating the meetup as a casual reunion.Days passed, and with only half a month remaining, the inevitable finally came.Felix was out shopping with Nerissa that day when an SUV suddenly pulled over beside the street. The window rolled down, revealing an ordinary-looking old man behind the wheel, staring directly at Felix."Nerissa, you should head back first," Felix said.Sensing something was up, Nerissa clutched his arm tightly. "Honey, I'm going to call Eloise and the others."They all knew about the existence of the Ancient Sage, so the moment she saw the man, she

Xena didn't look the least bit afraid. Instead, she simply turned her head and smiled."You must be Donna, the S-tier Malevolent Phantom Specter mentioned. You're the one who can peacefully coexist with Felix, right?"That's right. The newcomer was Donna. In fact, when she called Felix earlier, she was already in the city."Yes." Donna nodded.Without hesitation, Xena tossed the Mystical Explosive Orb over."I'm not interested in this thing. It's yours now. Just... don't kill me."Donna's eyes held a curious glint, but she still reached out and caught the orb."It seems like you've really changed a lot, and your instincts are sharp. How'd you know I came to kill you?"Xena stayed silent.Donna turned and walked away. "Whether I kill you or not doesn't make much difference to me. I'll spare you this time. Who knows, maybe someday, you and Felix will clash again."…Later that day, Donna sat across from Felix in a small restaurant."This is where our partnership ends," he sai

Was Felix actually qualified to learn the Phaeron Codex? Why? How was that even possible?As someone who practiced the Red Moon Reincarnation Requiem, the Scarlet Lord had faced all kinds of enemies. Even when he couldn't win, he could usually survive. There was one exception—someone who could cultivate the Phaeron Codex. That was a threat he couldn't possibly contend with.However, the Phaeron Codex was nearly impossible to find, let alone master. On top of that, its cultivation requirements were absurdly high. In all these years, no one had managed to learn it until now. And that someone was Felix?The Scarlet Lord knew then that he wasn't getting out of this alive. Running into Felix was like a rat running into a tiger. No—it was worse.Now suppressed by the Phaeron Projection, he couldn't unleash a single technique. This was the fatal weakness of the Red Moon Reincarnation Requiem. And who would've thought the second person to master the Phaeron Codex would appear at just this
