"You'll need to get out here. I don't come this way often, so I forgot the rules. No worries, though. They're just here to welcome you," the taxi driver said.Upon hearing the taxi driver's explanation, Felix glanced outside. The three white-robed figures were smiling warmly. He realized he had misinterpreted the situation and said, "Thanks."After paying, Felix stepped out and was immediately greeted with enthusiasm. Apparently, the driver had forgotten that Rebirth Sect members would intercept visitors at a certain point. There was no need to drive all the way to the main complex."Have you come to join Rebirth Sect?" they asked.Felix put on a hesitant expression. Since they were approaching him, the soul barrier must have let him through."I-I just wanted to ask if it is true that you can cure cancer here?" Felix asked.The leader, a middle-aged man in his 40s, smiled even wider."Of course. Many of our devotees were once cancer patients. Now? They live in perfect health.
There was no other choice. Felix could only make his face flush a little red. He was supposed to be suffering from brain cancer, not a total lack of reaction. Given her stunning body and gorgeous face, it would be weirder if he didn't react at all when she was so up close and personal.Finally, Yanny stood up, repeatedly bowing as she apologized. However, she moved so slowly that the few undone buttons on her top gave him an even clearer view. It was so clear that he could see everything perfectly even though he was lying down."It's fine," Felix said.Yanny let out a relieved sigh, then she flashed him a sweet smile."You're Felix Zeller, right? That's a really nice name. The results will take a little longer, so don't stress too much, okay? No matter what, you'll be able to live normally."As she spoke, she suddenly lifted her shirt, pointing at her smooth, flat abdomen."I used to have cervical cancer, but now I'm completely cured. That's how amazing Rebirth Sect is! Look, not
Felix sighed internally but exaggerated his reaction. "You… You want to help me bathe?"This would be an incredibly awkward situation for most people, but Yanny acted as if it were the most natural thing in the world."Of course! As your guide, we'll be inseparable from now on. We'll even be sleeping in the same bed. So what's wrong with helping you bathe?"Felix quickly pulled his hand away and rushed into the bathroom. "You don't need to do that. I can do it myself."After watching the bathroom door close, Yanny's lips curled into a subtle smile. This behavior was normal to her. Give it a few days, and things would be completely different.After his shower, Yanny took Felix on a walk around Rebirth Sect's compound. It was an opportunity for him to gather useful information."The ones in yellow robes are our elders. When you see them, place your palms together in front of your chest and give them your best smile."Felix smirked. "I thought I'd have to kneel or bow or something.
"In this life, we have reached our limit. We must be reborn to the next. But this doesn't mean literal death. The burdens of your past mistakes will be carried by your previous life, just as the beauty you long for in your heart will one day take root and bloom," the overlord said.While listening to the overlord's words, Felix had to admit that his speech was incredibly persuasive. If recovering from cancer was also part of the experience, resisting brainwashing would be nearly impossible."Come on, Felix," Yanny urged. "Every new member gets a personal meeting with the overlord after the sermon."As the others left the hall, Yanny led Felix forward.With his palms pressed together and smiles in place, Felix played his role well. He added a touch of awkwardness, letting his eyes show a mixture of uncertainty and longing."Felix, welcome to Rebirth Sect."After supposedly summoning his courage, Felix asked, "When will my illness be cured, sir? The doctors told me I only have thre
Felix narrowed his eyes. He believed this so-called step to some extent. After all, this was an organization; it was normal to haze the newcomers. However, Yanny said that there was a second step, which made him doubtful. Yanny lay on the bed as she looked at Felix, who stood frozen with his head turned away. She said seriously, "Give me a massage, and don't miss a spot. Otherwise, you'll be punished!"Felix heaved a sigh of relief. He had thought it would be something more extreme. But this was harmless, an inconvenience at best. Just as he was about to go over, a thought rang in his mind.No, what if there was a third step? Besides, he didn't know whether she was a human or a Malevolent Phantom. But even if she was human, he would never engage with her this way."I'm sorry, but I haven't been able to feel much since I got a brain tumor."Yanny seemed prepared for this response and smiled. "I'm not asking you for anything. Take this as your treatment. I'm already a senior in Reb
The older woman, Mylo, pounced at Felix, and he quickly grabbed her wrist, pretending to panic. "N-No! I don't want this."In his mind, he thought of a small trick to play on her. If this woman was indeed a Malevolent Phantom, she couldn't resist. Otherwise, if he died, that would be a waste of a soul. Even so, he dared not look at her with his Spirit Eye. He wanted to wait until she showed her fangs. Besides, there was nothing to hide now.Sure enough, Mylo licked her lips and allowed Felix to grab her wrist. She feigned shyness. "Oh! You're holding me too tightly! It hurts!" However, Felix immediately felt a strange disturbance in his soul."Ack! You're not an ordinary person!" she screamed in shock. Fortunately, Felix had set up a sound barrier in advance, so there was no need to worry about sound escaping."Hahaha! So you're really a Malevolent Phantom!" Felix shouted.Mylo had launched an attack on Felix's soul! But it was quickly deflected by his Infinite Shield, which m
Felix was so shocked that he was speechless. Rebirth Sect had 50 Malevolent Phantoms? What was this? If he hadn't just tortured Mylo's spirit and seen the truth with his own eyes, he would've thought she was lying.Upon seeing his reaction, Mylo quickly added, "It's true! There are really 50 Malevolent Phantoms in Rebirth Sect—five A-tiers, 15 B-tiers, and 30 C-tiers. It's all true!"Such a number of Malevolent Phantoms gathering together was unheard of and completely different from their usual way of life. "Why are you all gathering?" Felix asked.Perhaps Mylo was afraid of being tortured by Felix, for she answered immediately, "Because of food! You humans are growing stronger; even martial artists who don't know soul attacks can kill us C-tier Malevolent Phantoms."Besides, we have to avoid surveillance and getting caught. But since we came here, we can eat at least two to three times a month! We don't even have to worry about anything, so why not?"Felix pondered about this.
Mylo explained, "We don't lack food, and these ordinary people are all supported by Yosef. He calls this his long-term strategy. None of us Malevolent Phantoms are allowed to touch the staff here. Otherwise, the consequences would be miserable."People like you in the headquarters know that we can't kill one another, but there are many ways to make us suffer. Sometimes even worse than death."Felix's expression turned grim. "So the 'lack of food' means people like me who come and see Riley for his reputation?"Mylo shrank back from the intensity of Felix's gaze. Murderous energy filled every inch of the room, and she quickly turned away. "Yes, patients are coming here for treatments. Us C-tier Malevolent Phantoms just need to play the role of someone who has already been taken by spending time with their families. That's our task. "We have a week to observe their habits so we don't arouse suspicion. Besides, with human emotions, people experience ups and downs in life and often
