On the only empty viewing platform, Zayn took a seat with only one other person. Joanna and Howie immediately stood up and saluted. "Oh! The sixth prince came just to see me?" Joanna had always wanted to marry into the royal family, and she liked the sixth prince a lot. Her family had also tried to match them up several times—but there was no clear connection."Don't think about it too much. As far as I know, Zayn has been quite active recently, and he has been going in and out of the four major cities," Howie explained to Joanna. Still, she didn't get angry."It's fine. There's still plenty of time for us to get together. One day, the sixth prince will notice me," she said.Zayn was in a good mood as he sat down. He had initially planned to leave Denverville—but since he heard that the Hughmans and Yorkers were fighting, he came to take a look out of boredom.However, no matter where he turned, Felix caught his eye! "Felix!" Zayn gritted his teeth. The only time he was humil
The sun finally set, but Denverville was lit up, and the arena was as bright as day. Most of the lights were around the arena—covering every corner."Felix, please." Nala turned toward Felix, a tear falling down her cheek.When he saw this, he said solemnly, "You will be Nala Hughman from now on." They took a deep breath, stood up, and walked forward in sync. At this point, everyone standing below could see them clearly.Nala slowly took off her veil, and the black and red scabs on her face were displayed in front of an audience for the first time. There was a hiss as everyone took a sharp breath of air. Some even covered their eyes!It was truly terrifying. No matter how beautiful Nala's eyes were, they couldn't overshadow the scars on her face. Even looking at her for over a few seconds would upset the audience.Nala was suffering from pure humiliation as she stood there. On the other hand, Joanna was laughing so hard she could barely cover her mouth. This had all been agreed
"Hahaha! He's in the early-stage of the Transcendent Realm! Natalie, didn't you say this guy was a good alchemist?" Ezra remarked.Natalie was also dumbfounded. "I don't know—but he's still overestimating himself. Howie is actually in the middle-stage of the Transcendent Realm."The battle continued, and Howie was already feeling much more relaxed. Since Felix was also in the Transcendent Realm, he didn't need to hide his power. In this case, accidentally killing him on the shot would be the best expression."What do you think about what your sister did?" As the two fought, Felix telepathically talked to Howie."What do 'you' think? In Martial City, strength is respected. Nala's only fault was the she was too trusting."Felix sneered. "Then what if this was reversed, and the one in such a state was Joanna?"This was a clear example of Howie's double standards. "Hahaha! That's true—but I would kill Nala, and no one could stop it!"Felix understood what he meant, and no more wor
Joanna was speechless. It wasn't just her—the entire arena was silent. After all, they were all from Denverville. They all knew Howie was in the middle stage of the Transcendent Realm. On the other hand, Felix was unknown and unheard of. However, he still came out victorious. Thus, how could they not be shocked?Nala held back her excitement and stretched out her right hand. She wasn't worried that Joanna would go back on her word. And that was exactly the case. If Joanna refused to hand over the antidote, everyone present would know that she accepted defeat publicly. If she broke her promise now, the reputation of the Yorkers would crash and burn into the ground—her family would never let her go.Fuck! Where and how did Nala find Felix? Her reputation had been dragged through mud, yet she was still so favored by the powerful Felix? God was truly unfair.Joanna gnashed her teeth and tossed a pill at Nala. She sneered. "So what if I gave it to you? Nala, you've fallen far behind
"Felix… I… Am I really not worthy enough to be your wife? Not even as just a lover?"Felix patted Nala's back helplessly. He said, "I've already agreed to marry Nerissa. When it comes to you or Xena, maybe it's best to stay as friends."Nerissa! Nala was shocked, but then a self-deprecating smile formed on her face. "Turns out Nerissa was the woman chosen by your mother… You're right—what's lost is lost. "Whether it was me or Xena, it's our own fault. If we had half of Nerissa's determination and loyalty, maybe we wouldn't have ended up like this."Felix didn't respond. What had happened had happened. No amount of words could change it now. "I'm leaving now." As soon as he took a step, Nala remembered something. "Wait a second, Felix.""Is there something else you want to tell me?" Her expression turned solemn. "Aiden came to see me a month ago."Aiden! This wasn't something Felix expected. How dare Aiden show up so brazenly?"The plan was to set you up in exchange for
"What's wrong?" Dickson asked.Felix thought for a while before sighing helplessly. "It's nothing. Let's go."Kevin was surely a master of Transcendent Realm. Even if Felix used Lone Paragon, he wouldn't be able to win against him. Besides, Dickson had just entered the late stage of Transcendent Realm. Even if they worked together, it wouldn't do much, and they would likely be killed. It wasn't worth it. Besides, it was clear that they were going opposite ways. After running for a while, the intense feeling disappeared.Despite that, Felix and Dickson returned to North City safely. Laura was the most excited to see Felix again. She was the only one who had believed he wasn't dead. After all, there was a connection between them. If Felix had died, Laura would've died as well. However, since she couldn't tell Deborah about this, she could only pray that Felix would come back soon.In the following days, everything had returned to normal. Felix followed Deborah and completely focu
For the past six months, Felix had almost never left the house, let alone North City. Everyone who knew him could only stare helplessly.All of a sudden, Nellie's phone rang. She frowned after listening to the call. "Felix, the front desk said that the sixth prince, Zayn, wants to see you."The sixth prince? Felix thought about it and then replied, "Alright. I'll come over."Deborah nodded. She knew that the two of them had grudges, but so what? Even if Zayn was a royal, he was also required to follow the rules. Besides, Felix was now in the middle stage of Transcendent Realm. Thus, it wouldn't be easy to kill him, either.Felix arrived at a café in Rosewood. Only Zayn sat on the entire second floor of the establishment."Felix! You're about to take the advanced pill assessment, right? Well, with your skills, there shouldn't be any hiccups. Congratulations!"Felix was confused.What was Zayn up to? While there was only a conflict between them, he knew that Zayn wasn't someone
Two weeks later, at Harmony Clinic's headquarters, Ezra personally held a banquet to congratulate Felix. The results of the assessments had been revealed, and Felix had achieved the title of an advanced alchemist.In Martial City, there were very few who could refine advanced pills. So, during the assessment, only three other alchemists were in the running alongside Felix. One of them had evidently failed."Felix, whether my unworthy grandson can achieve the mastery of Transcendent Realm depends on you," Ezra said.Dickson pouted and said, "Well, well, well, so you've revealed your true colors, Mr. Whitwell."Ezra shot Dickson a glare and said, "How dare you say that? Didn't you promise Felix you wouldn't pick your nose from now on? I don't know who said before that even if you were threatened, you would never let go of that habit."Dickson was helpless. What else could he do? He had also wanted to master Transcendent Realm. Now, Felix was his fastest way.Only Deborah had a warm
