The Menacing Four exchanged another look, and one snarled, "You think you can use us to claim credit or something? Dream on! Let's see whether you survive this!"In the next moment, the four men stood up, and they looked very weird. Their bodies were all straight as rods."Be careful." Felix didn't know what was going to happen, but he had a bad feeling and reminded Xena to be careful. However, the latter remained as disdainful as before. Her gaze turned icy.Since the Menacing Four were so stubborn, she had to take them down on the spot. But before she could do anything, the four men stretched out their arms as blood spurted from their hearts. The blood merged before shooting toward Xena.Everything had happened so suddenly, and the blood moved too quickly. Xena didn't have time to react. Oddly enough, the blood disappeared as soon as it came into contact with Xena's arm. It was as if it hadn't even existed.The Menacing Four collapsed on the ground again. This time, they were de

"Don't worry. I'm here." Jordan couldn't tell what was wrong with Xena, but he could make her heartbeat return to normal. With his skills, it was a small matter.About half an hour later, Xena woke up. "I…"She was surprised when she saw Belle and Jordan. "Joe? What are you doing in my house?"Belle hurriedly explained, "I can't imagine what would've happened to you if not for Jordan being here, milady. Who knows what would've happened if we hadn't saved you in time?"Xena's expression turned ugly at Belle's words. She suddenly recalled what had happened—the Menacing Four's last move had been powerful enough to harm her. If she had to describe how she'd felt, she would say the pain was literally heart-wrenching.Damn that Felix! Xena silently cursed him, her hatred for him surging. He might not have been able to help with his meager medical skills, but couldn't he have called an ambulance? She couldn't believe he'd left as if nothing was wrong with her. He'd left her to die!"T

Seeing that Ivan was about to leave, Sasha hurriedly clung to his arm and cried, "Do you suddenly hate me so?"Her high-pitched voice drew the attention of the people around them. Ivan decided to just go along with her one last time. He'd yet to get a taste of her, but with Felix around now, none of that mattered anymore.He said, "No, of course not. I've just been busy because of my mother. Don't be mad, okay?"Sasha knew about Cheryl's condition and immediately settled down at Ivan's words. "When are you going to introduce me to your mother?""Let's see how things go. Do you want to stroll around the antiques market?"Sasha nodded, her good mood restored. "It's my dad's birthday today. He likes antiques, so I decided to try my luck. It's fine if I can't find anything, though. I've already asked someone to prepare something else for me."Felix stopped before a stall in the antiques market and appraised the things strewn across the stall. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say the

Meanwhile, Sasha ran after Ivan as quickly as she could, finally managing to stop him in the parking lot. "What did you mean by that, Ivan? Why were you so polite to Felix?"Ivan looked at her, his face devoid of emotion. "It's none of your fucking business!"Sasha's jaw dropped. Ivan had always been gentle and tender to her. How dare he speak to her like that! "You have to give me an explanation for this!"Before today, Ivan would've just slapped Sasha and left. Who did she think she was, acting so obnoxiously before him? But now that he knew about the relationship between Felix and Warren… Sasha was annoying, but if he really were to do anything to her, would Felix come after him?Left with no choice, he said, "Felix is trained in martial arts and is good in a fight. I've lost the nerve to pick on him now. Are you happy with that?"He got into his car and left, seeing that Sasha was no longer stopping him. After a while, Sasha returned to her senses, and her expression becam

Felix was sure the energy in the teapot wouldn't lead him astray. If that were the case, perhaps the porcelain teapot had a hidden side.A middle-aged man in a suit approached. He looked spirited. "I'm honored and pleasantly surprised by your presence, Ms. Kinsley."Wendy said helplessly, "Oh, don't tease me, Mr. Camden. We're short on time, so we'll get straight to the point."Felix pulled out the porcelain teapot and said, "I don't think this porcelain teapot is as it seems. I'd like to ask you to take a look at it and see whether you can restore it, Mr. Camden."Thomas took the porcelain teapot and started appraising it. Over ten minutes later, his eyes lit up. "You've got a good eye, young man. You've got a treasure here! "There's a layer of special material enveloping the teapot—only the teapot makers of the era knew how to create this. Ordinary people have no idea this even exists. Even I only learned about it after a recent gathering with a few old friends. "Once this la
