All Chapters of The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection: Chapter 1321 - Chapter 1330

At this point, Steve's expression became quite interesting. "Think about it. Everyone who wants that land plans to grow grapes and open a winery. If the land gets contaminated, what's the point?" Paul was definitely hardcore for being willing to go that far rather than sell the land. What could he possibly be thinking? "As for underhanded methods, those eventually stopped too! Paul has an extremely powerful cousin, and nobody in Zuera dares to mess with him. Anyone who tries those tactics better be prepared for retaliation." Felix rubbed his chin thoughtfully. Everyone had their price. He didn't believe Paul was truly a man without desires—that was simply impossible. "How about this—can you arrange a dinner between me and Paul? That shouldn't be too difficult, right?" Steve smiled. "Absolutely. As long as it doesn't involve that land, Paul will show me the respect I deserve. "But once we're at the table, if you bring up the land, he definitely won't budge. I hope you won't

Felix couldn't care less about all that. He said, "So now, you can make your request. You should believe by now that there's nothing I can't accomplish, right?" Paul glanced at Steve with a helpless expression. Felix's status had reached an unimaginable level, which was totally different from all the previous buyers. If Paul offended someone like this, even without running a normal business, he'd probably find living like a regular citizen impossible. And this wouldn't just be in Zuera, but likely throughout all of Dragonia. Would he need to move abroad because of this? After thinking it over, Paul finally spoke up. "Actually, the person who really has the final say over this land is my cousin. Mr. Jacinto knows about my cousin's existence." Steve's expression changed, but Felix responded nonchalantly, "Fine. Call your cousin here, and I'll talk to him directly." Paul looked uncomfortable and seemed a bit embarrassed. "Well, my cousin has a hot temper and speaks very rudely.

Paul was stunned to hear that Bazzo was dead. After all, Morius was there, and the thought of him dying was unbelievable. Paul was stunned when Cordon continued, "You said it yourself—he could even command Johann. So tell me, how do you say no to someone like that, someone we can't afford to mess with in any way? He's not like the previous buyers. Our tricks are like child's play compared to what he can do."After a long pause, Paul finally let out a deep sigh. "I get it." Cordon thought Paul had come to his senses and relaxed a bit. When they entered the private room, Paul looked at Felix, his confidence completely shattered. He said, "Mr. Zeller, you can buy that land, but I have one condition."Cordon was so shocked by Paul's remark that he almost lost his balance. He thought, "What the hell! Did everything I just say go in one ear and out the other?"Upon thinking of this, he dropped to his knees. Paul might be ready to die, but he was not. He had just barely escaped with

As Paul nodded, Felix continued, "So, you're saying you want me to find the serum, and then you'll sell the land?" "Yes, I can tell you're a reasonable man, Mr. Zeller. Otherwise, with your abilities, you could have taken the land by force long ago. I'm truly at my wit's end. I've searched everywhere and found nothing. Please, I beg you to help," Paul pleaded.Whatever reasons Francis had for setting this up must have been out of necessity. After all, who would deliberately curse their own descendants? Back then, Francis was in a desperate situation, constantly under King Aurelius's watch, with no other options. Felix replied, "Alright, I'll help. But I can only promise to do my best. This whole thing sounds too unbelievable to most people."Paul nearly burst into tears of relief. The fact that Felix could command Johann did not matter as much to him. What mattered was that Felix had killed Bazzo, something even Morius could not handle. This gave Paul hope that only someone lik

Arriving at the tunnel entrance, Felix glanced at Paul. "Alright. Since Holden knows the way, you don't need to come. If things get dangerous, having an extra person to protect only increases the risk."Paul understood. He had poured enormous manpower and resources into this search, yet they still had not found anything. That alone proved that ordinary means would not work, and there was always the possibility of real danger lurking below."Mr. Zeller, please… protect Holden. He's my only child."Felix gave a small nod, and Paul pulled Holden into a tight embrace as if he were sending him off to war. Holden assured Paul, "Don't worry, Dad. Mr. Zeller's with me."The underground tunnels had electric lighting, a clear sign of just how much effort had gone into this excavation. Paul had even hired guards to keep watch, ensuring no outsiders wandered in. Though the area was remote, with only vineyard workers nearby, he had not taken any chances.Felix walked forward, keeping his eyes
