Felix asked, "How much longer?"Jeffrey checked the time before responding, "About an hour and a half.""I'm going to take a walk around. I'll be back in an hour," Felix said as he stood up. The Saphira family had only sent Jeffrey since this was supposed to be a fight between the younger generations. After all, the Crayden family would not dare try anything underhanded against Jeffrey.If that were to happen, it would inevitably lead to an all-out war between the families—something even the Elders' Council could not mediate.When they arrived, Felix detected the distinctive aroma of the rare medicinal herb Shadowroot. He remembered working with a similar herb when trying to cure Curtis, but that one had been harmless with a localized effect.The Shadowroot was different and far more dangerous, and even a minute of exposure could be fatal to an ordinary person. Doctors familiar with its properties would usually remove it from the area, even if they did not need it. It was to pre

"What!" Nala jumped to her feet, fully aware that the conflict between Felix and Malcolm had started because of her. "Damn it! Since when did the Crayden family become so aggressive? How dare they plan an assassination when the Saphira family is involved?" she exclaimed. This also puzzled Alfie, as the Eight Great Martial Families typically favored strategy over brute force."Have Yvonne warn Felix to get out of there immediately," Nala ordered."Yes, miss!" Alfie rushed to comply. Even though Felix had advanced significantly in his training, he was no match for a Crayden family elder. If they crossed paths, it would be certain death. This was not what Nala had wanted at all. Her interest in Felix stemmed from his incredible potential—his dual mastery of both medicine and martial arts was extraordinary. She had been banking on his future growth to benefit her plans, but all would be lost if he died now."Felix, you absolutely cannot die," she whispered, clenching her fists.

The power gap was absolute. It was an unbridgeable chasm. The next moment, Omar vanished completely, moving too fast for Jeffrey's eyes to track."Dad, did you anticipate this?" Jeffrey thought helplessly, knowing he could only prepare to collect Felix's body. No one had expected the Craydens to break from the rule so drastically. Suddenly, a muffled boom echoed through the air. Omar's figure reappeared, stumbling backward several steps until he reached Malcolm's side, shockingly coughing up blood."Show yourself!" Malcolm cried out in alarm. As he looked closer, he saw a short, middle-aged man standing expressionlessly about six feet in front of Felix. "Since when did the Craydens earn the right to discipline members of my family?" As the voice rang out, a young man emerged from a nearby building, casually chewing on a toothpick."Asher Greene!" Malcolm, being from Yartford, recognized the young man instantly. While Jeffrey did not know him personally, the name Greene carried e

"Felix, this is Zara Morgan. I'm sorry, but Mr. Grayson's watching me closely, so I had to use a new number to contact you," she explained. Even now, Felix could not understand why Silas had made him make that promise."Go ahead. I'm listening," Felix replied calmly."Well... could you accompany me somewhere tonight? I could go alone, but the place is supposedly haunted at night, and I'm really scared," Zara clarified nervously.Felix found her excuse rather strange. "Zara, normally, I'd help you with anything, but I made a promise to Mr. Grayson. I don't want to go back on my word."Besides, Ernest was there at that time. If Silas found out about this and came looking for Felix, it would only bring nothing but trouble. "I know, but you owe me a favor. Surely a man of honor can repay a debt?" Zara countered.Felix had to admit she had a point, which immediately eased his conscience. "Alright. I'll see you tonight.""I can't come out easily. Could you buy some protective charm

Drake laughed. "Felix, just drop the act! Even someone as rich as my dad has a mobile banking limit of 500 thousand dollars. "And you seriously think you can transfer ten million dollars just like that? Nice try at fooling everyone!" Felix turned to him with a pitying look. He said, "It must be exhausting pretending to be rich all the time."As a VIP client at Concord Bank, Felix had no such transfer limits. Before Drake could respond, Billy's eyes widened as he stared at his phone. He exclaimed, "I've received the money!"Then, he quickly composed himself and resumed his wise demeanor. "Sir, your spiritual understanding far surpasses mine. Someone of your devotion is more than welcome at Sixview Peak. Please enter!" Billy gestured grandly. Felix was not just being petty—he needed to buy those items, and money was not an issue. Besides, supporting peaceful religion seemed worthwhile.Watching Felix disappear inside, Drake began trembling as he recalled Luis' warning—he ha
