Chapter 571

Author: Dreamy Fire
Felix's expression was devoid of emotion. "Nala? What does her situation have to do with me?"

On the other end of the call, Yvonne was already sobbing. "I'm sorry, Felix! Please, I'm begging you to save Lady Nala. She's abroad and can't handle this on her own. I'm begging you!"

But Felix remained indifferent. "I refuse. Yvonne, don't forget—it was that woman who first took away your happiness and then sent you to your death. Is she really worth it?"

"She is! Without Lady Nala, there wouldn't be me! Fine, I get it. Just help her this once, and I promise to leave Caraville immediately. I won't bother you again, ever."

Felix sighed. He knew agreeing now would break Yvonne's heart. But he had no choice—Madam Spring's artifact posed a deadly risk to him. He could only act harshly to completely sever Yvonne's hope. Over time, she would heal and eventually find her own happiness.

"Fine, I'll go check the situation. But if it's too much, don't blame me for walking away."

Time passed, and

    "What brings you to Azuria?" Nala asked.Even though Felix remained silent, Nala kept talking tirelessly, almost as if she were speaking to herself. Her demeanor was entirely different from the impression she had given before—she was practically unrecognizable."Are you truly not considering returning to the Greene family? You can't begin to imagine the power they hold in Dragonia. "With your background, if you went back now, the Greene family would undoubtedly welcome you. With their formidable support, your future path would be incredibly smooth. Trust me," Nala said.At that moment, footsteps finally echoed from outside. Felix silently thanked the heavens—if they hadn't come, he might've been tempted to plug his ears."Who dares to hit my men?"A middle-aged man strode in, flanked by seven bodyguards dressed in black. Hands in his pocket, his swagger was practically oozing arrogance."I did," Felix said.Julian Hale let out a derisive snort, his face full of disdain."Do y

    "Bones?" Felix frowned, sensing there was more to those words than met the eye. "What does that mean?"Nala looked surprised. The Greene family had sought her out, instructing her to pass along this exact message. If Felix ignored it, she was simply to repeat the same words.She hadn't expected it to actually catch his interest, making the whole situation even stranger."I don't know what it means. Your father, Victor, asked me to tell you," Nala said.Felix studied Nala for a moment before walking away, leaving behind a single comment. "If I figure it out, I'll contact you."As his car headed toward the airport, Felix remained deep in thought. Bones? Did his biological father know something?After all, how could anyone expect him to remember his childhood fascinations? On the surface, the phrase seemed meaningless, like idle chatter. But when "bones" were involved, the implications changed entirely.While mulling it over, his phone buzzed with an incoming call from an unfamil

    After stepping inside, Xena finally spoke. "I heard from Alistair that you've crossed paths with people from Medic's Haven. Is that true?"So that was what this was about. Felix smiled and replied, "It's just baseless accusations. Don't worry, it's nothing serious."Xena's brows knitted deeply, her expression turning grave. "You don't seem to understand the severity of this. Or perhaps you don't know much about Medic's Haven?"Felix frowned slightly. "I'm not following.""Medic's Haven holds a unique position. Many legendary physicians hail from there. To put it bounty, even when I was known as Lady Summers, I didn't have the qualifications to approach them. Does that help you understand?"Felix hesitated briefly, realizing she was genuinely concerned about him. Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed her hand. Xena initially struggled half-heartedly before accepting it."Relax. I know what I'm doing. Medic's Haven isn't a group of bandits or thugs. Like you said, they've trained co

    "Malcolm Crayden?" Felix asked immediately. "Where are you having dinner?"On the other end of the line, Jack chuckled cheerfully. "Why? Thinking of joining us? Sure, that's why I called you. If you come, my chances of closing this deal will skyrocket!"After getting the address, Felix wasted no time heading over. He refrained from saying much to Jack, worried that his emotions might give something away to Malcolm and potentially cause unnecessary trouble.The fact that Malcolm was negotiating with Jack could only mean one thing—it was about Felix. After all, the Crayden family was one of the Eight Great Martial Families. They wouldn't even bat an eye at someone like Wendy or her father, Vincent, let alone sit down with a manager from the Kinsley Group.At a high-end restaurant in Canraville, Jack raised his wine decanter with a grin. "Mr. Crayden, your compliments earlier really hit home for me. I'll drink to that!"Malcolm smiled and nodded, flanked by two stern-looking elderl

    More importantly, the news about the incident leaked for some reason. Many people now knew about the story, and Malcolm became a laughingstock throughout the community. He could have swallowed his pride if Felix had still been part of the Greene family. But learning that Felix was just their cast-off heir who had no intention of returning changed everything. "We're all adults here. Let's just drop the act since we're already sitting down," Felix said.Hearing Felix's words, Malcolm did not hold himself back anymore. He slammed the table and stood up. "You're nothing without the Greene family backing you! I'm here for payback." Felix smirked as he pointed at the two expressionless old men. "Are you going to do that with these old timers' help?" The men's eyes flashed dangerously. They would have torn Felix apart if Malcolm had not held them back. "Old timers? It's amazing how you can be so arrogant." With a wave of his hand, the men stood up together. Their aura filled every

    A wheelchair was pushed into the room by a middle-aged man with strong features. Though deathly pale, the man in the wheelchair had eyes that radiated terrifying power. A single glance from him made Malcolm tremble. He had only felt this kind of presence from the most powerful elders in his family. Felix, on the other hand, felt a storm of emotions. Blood ties could indeed be mysterious. Even if the man in the wheelchair had not spoken earlier, one look told Felix this was his biological father, Victor Greene. "Malcolm Crayden, you clearly didn't take my last warning seriously. It's quite annoying." Asher Greene followed them in while fixing Malcolm with an icy stare. Composing himself, Malcolm spoke, "Asher, Felix is just a cast-off heir with no ties to the Greene family as far as I'm concerned. Even if you're protecting him, it's because of your personal feelings! "The Greene family may be powerful, but going against the entire Crayden family over your personal wishes seems

    Anyone could see the striking resemblance between the two men. From their appearances, it was clear they were father and son. Victor's eyes welled up with tears. He would have preferred Felix to yell or curse at him irrationally. His calm attitude hurt more because it meant Felix saw him as a stranger. He could not even hate Victor. "I'm happy enough to have met you before I die." Victor pulled something from his pocket, and Felix's expression instantly changed. However, he had suspected it, seeing and feeling the item before he confirmed it. The thing in Victor's hands was the real Dragonspine. "It's yours now, my child." Felix accepted the Dragonspine. He planned to cultivate it after heading back. "I'm leaving then," Felix said."Do you really have nothing to say to me?" Felix stopped and laughed. "What should I say? Should I ask why you'd have a child you wouldn't raise? Or how could you do something so heartless? Maybe I should punch you, shouldn't I? "None of those

    "It's up to you whether you want to believe it. I only told you because of your special position." Victor wheeled himself away, leaving Nala standing there stunned. The shock in her eyes only grew stronger with each passing moment. "That's Felix's mother?" Her expression shifted rapidly before she finally left with a bitter smile. …Four days flew by. Felix stayed at home and focused on cultivating the third Dragonspine he had received from Victor. It was a matter of utmost importance. With his current strength, it only took him four days to complete the process. He smiled as he felt the presence of three Dragonspines within him. "I've finally built the foundation Mr. Hoffman spoke of." With three Dragonspines now, there was no need to panic even if something happened to the original one Gerald had marked. He could sense other Dragonspines within a certain range now.As he stretched, Xena called. "Though it's a bit later than what I told you, they've arrived in Canraville. Le

    The guide said, "This is where the selected contestants rest. The yard is huge and has everything you need. As long as you don't leave this yard, you're free to move around. I'll bring you to your room now."The yard looked huge, with fixtures of bridges and flowing rivers. Felix even passed by a fake mountain. It was large enough for hundreds of people to climb, standing thousands of feet tall and looked quite majestically.No one on Earth or Aquamarinus could have built such a luxurious residence. Felix could even see a bar and massage parlor, showing how indispensable technology was in the universe. His room was luxurious, around 2000 square feet, and was decorated with traditional but modern touches. "This is your room. I'll take my leave now, goodbye." The young man left with a bow. Felix turned around and stood on the patio. Outside his room was a large lake, with even fish swimming inside."A new neighbor? Did you just arrive today?" The sudden voice came from the patio

    Felix arrived at the location of one of Nine Flames, where the guards instantly collapsed, their eyes rolling back as they fainted.By now, darkness had arrived. He walked forward without any hesitation, his right hand touching the flame.There was no need for any special tools. The flame simply vanished, and only Felix knew that it was absorbed in an instant by his Starmark.With the disappearance of the flames, people in many places immediately dropped to their knees.The light that should have lasted throughout the night vanished, and the darkness of Desolated Lands descended almost instantly. Every light went out in an instant.Screams echoed everywhere, and panic spread like wildfire. Even though their loved ones were close by, they couldn't see them with their eyes and could only communicate through voice.Scenes like this were unfolding in many places, even in Cloud City."It's really started," Eira said. She was in Cloud City. Although Luigi was standing on her left, h

    Despite Thiago's murderous glare and overwhelming killing intent, Felix wasn't scared. In fact, it made him smile.Due to the unique trait of the Dragon Rebirth, his opponent had to harbor a true desire to kill him in order for Felix to grow stronger. Otherwise, it would all be meaningless. At least so far, everything was unfolding just as he expected.Meanwhile, Holt was silently praying like crazy as he lay on the ground. The battle had already begun, and his companion had understood his message. This was their only shot, however slim, at killing Felix.As time passed and the afternoon crept past 3:00 pm, his companion started to falter. His attacks were growing sluggish. He hadn't been injured, but he was clearly on the defensive now.Seeing this, Felix completely lost interest. Once his opponent lost the will to kill him, the Dragon Rebirth would no longer grow.Still, the battle wasn't for nothing. He'd made solid progress and was a little closer to becoming a Celestial Realm

    Felix had clearly found Holt's weak spot. These guys were so desperate to extend their lives that they turned the entire Aquamarinus into a breeding ground. Obviously, they were terrified of death. As long as there was even the slightest chance of survival, they'd take it.And sure enough, Holt immediately agreed. He pulled out some kind of device and flew off, clearly contacting his comrades."But even if I agreed," Holt said, "the three of us split up and searched in different directions. Even if they rush over, they won't make it until tomorrow."The fear in his eyes was obvious, so much so that Felix couldn't help but laugh."How interesting," Felix said. "You made a deal with the Ant Queen, right? Couldn't she at least give you something to help you move freely through Desolated Lands at night?"Holt shot him a bitter smile. "The Ant Queen's children—the soldier ants—are born hunters. That instinct can't be erased. And honestly, we've never needed to go out at night anyway."

    Lumen flew out and quickly returned. Felix's expression eased completely, and with a step, he vanished from where he stood."Chasing me was fun last time, huh? Did you think it'd go the same this time?" he asked.When he reappeared, someone was already lying on the ground about ten yards ahead. It was a figure fully shrouded in a gray robe, a man named Holt Bovington.That was Felix holding back. Otherwise, Lumen's previous strike could've shattered Holt's soul on the spot."Felix Zeller? It really is you!" Holt's voice was full of shock. Whatever he'd planned to do was already too late. His soul had taken a devastating blow, and he no longer had the strength to fight."Yeah, it's me. Just like I suspected, you people really aren't all that strong when it comes to soul power."Felix had spared his life because he wanted answers."If you answer a few questions honestly, I'll let you live. Even with your soul badly damaged, I assume someone who knows about Nine Flames and Desolate

    Three months later, deep within a mountain on Aquamarinus, a meeting was taking place. Who would've imagined palace-like structures hidden within the mountain itself?In one of the chambers, a sky-blue dome adorned the ceiling. Beneath it, three figures in gray robes sat cross-legged, their bodies cloaked in shadow. Their faces were completely obscured."I went to see the Ant Queen yesterday. There's definitely something wrong.""Enough with the vague talk. Be specific.""In just three months, the Ant Queen has lost millions of her children. Do you even understand what that means?"The atmosphere shifted as all three took a sharp breath. A long silence followed before one finally spoke, "Perhaps our earlier theory is right. Is someone hunting soldier ants in Desolated Lands at night?""It has to be. How else do you explain millions of casualties? At this rate, we're down to just a million soldier ants across the entire planet. If this keeps up, they'll be wiped out in a month. An

    "I didn't expect you to be a doctor, too. Thanks," Myles said, but then suddenly froze. His mind started racing.Wait a minute! He took down a tiger of True Blood Realm. On top of that, he was extremely skilled in medicine. That could only mean…"You figured out who I am?" Felix asked with a smile, trying to put Myles at ease. Despite that, Myles couldn't hide his fear. "You're Felix Zeller?""That's right. Judging by your reaction, I take it I've become a traitor to The Recovery Association? Or maybe some kind of unforgivable villain?"The air grew a bit awkward, and Myles shot him a strained smile."Not exactly… It's just that you took down the Flame Monarch. That's kind of hard to wrap my head around."His expression shifted again."Actually, everyone's still pretty confused. When we woke up this morning, every city, town, and even the smallest villages received a message. Five days from now, the Flame Monarch is holding a Flame Ceremony."Felix paused, frowning.

    With Lumen and Indigo attacking and the Infinite Shield defending, Felix held his ground. Occasionally, he cast minor spells that barely consumed any soul power. Even as the monsters surged toward him like a tidal wave, not one of them could so much as scratch him.Feeling the steady stream of energy flooding into him, Felix grinned. If things kept going like this, there was a high chance he'd break through to the next major soul realm—Soul Overlord Realm.If he could level up again during the elimination rounds, his odds of winning the whole thing would increase significantly. Especially since Soul Overlord Realm required soul enhancement, it was a whole different league compared to Aetherium Realm.Once he hit Soul Overlord Realm, he was confident he'd be able to go toe-to-toe in a soul battle with the powerful figure who had chased him during dusk.That guy didn't dare appear in Desolated Lands at night, which likely meant his soul wasn't strong. In that case, Felix might actual

    The sun had already begun to set. After fleeing in a panic, Felix had no idea if there was even a single place ahead that could shield him from the coming darkness.A few minutes later, the presence chasing him within his domain disappeared. Logically, the pursuer should've caught up in less than ten minutes, but they gave up. Still, Felix didn't relax for a second. The darkness was about to fall, and that could only mean two things. Either the pursuer wasn't confident they could survive the desolate night themselves, or they assumed there was no flame nearby and Felix was as good as dead.Either way, this was the most dangerous moment yet.After sprinting several more miles, Felix finally stopped. All around him stretched a barren wasteland with no end in sight. Even though he had memorized maps to identify different areas, they were useless now. As darkness swallowed the land, all reference points vanished."Damn it! I guess I'll have to see for myself what the hell comes out i
