Chapter 597
Felix clasped his hands respectfully. "You're sharp as ever, Mr. Grimwald." He had performed the same motion twice because he had reset the Miracle Card. It was something Magnus had instantly recognized. In that case, Magnus naturally knew this young man was Gerald's disciple. Only two people could reset a Miracle Card, and Felix clearly was not Gerald himself. "Mr. Grimwald, do you actually know him?" Jasper sensed something was off. Everyone else wore shocked expressions too. Who could have guessed Felix really knew Magnus? Especially Ethan, who was ogling at them wide-eyed. He could not accept this reality. If Magnus spoke up for Felix, wouldn't he be able to walk out of Medic's Haven unscathed? How could Ethan get his revenge then? Magnus' eyes flickered as he turned to Jasper. "Oh right, why exactly is he here? Why are you all gathered?" Clearly, he did not know the reason for Felix's visit. Jasper hesitated to speak. Magnus' word was absolute in Medic's Haven. Who w
Chapter 598
Though Magnus usually wore a kind expression, he now showed his absolute authority in front of everyone. Others held their breath in fear. Even Jasper trembled, afraid of being implicated. They were shocked by how defensive Magnus was of Felix. But they were even more curious about what gave Henrik the courage to challenge the respected Supreme Elder. Surely he hadn't lost his mind over his disciple, had he? To everyone's surprise, Henrik showed no fear. He met Magnus' gaze and said, "What if I choose neither?" Just as Magnus' brows furrowed, a voice rang out. "Magnus, has all that seclusion made your temper worse?" Another elderly man appeared. Though also white-haired, he appeared much more vigorous than Magnus. "Greetings, Mr. Hartford!" Everyone bowed. From the title, Felix realized who this was. It was another Supreme Elder. Magnus understood now. "No wonder this little fellow dares challenge me. I assume he has your backing, Sebastian?" Sebastian Hartford's appearan
Chapter 599
Everyone stood frozen in shock. Magnus was usually a kind and reclusive Supreme Elder. Who could have imagined him to kill someone suddenly? Besides, he did it right in front of Sebastian. Even Felix was startled. Ethan gaped at where his mentor had been ranting just a minute ago. Now, not even a single intact bone remained. "Magnus, you've gone too far!" Sebastian's expression darkened. He had not expected Magnus to strike so suddenly. "Have I? Have you forgotten those years when we followed our mentor during Medic's Haven's founding? Wasn't he asking for death when he dared do such underhanded tricks before me? I gave him a chance, but he refused it." At these words, Sebastian recalled something and fell silent. Magnus' words rang through the hall. "Remember this! Medic's Haven will function without any of you. Don't think too highly of yourselves." "Yes!" Now in complete despair, Ethan found a strange clarity. He glared and shouted, "Why? I'm the one who practices unde
Chapter 600
The miracle doctor's name alone was intimidating enough, but they had now learned that their revered founder, Orion, had entered traditional medicine under his guidance. It was no wonder Magnus had been so protective of Felix. Everything made sense now. Those two deaths today were hardly unjustified. Suddenly, Jasper's body trembled as a terrifying thought struck him. Orion had been dead for so many years, and Magnus, his first disciple, was already so old. Wouldn't that mean Gerald… …On the drive back, Felix was enjoying a sausage. The street food at Medic's Haven was excellent, so he had bought plenty to share with Jack, Xena, and the others. "Mr. Zeller, there's something ahead. Let me check it out. Please wait here." After hearing the driver's words, Felix glanced up. Then anger flashed in his eyes. "Stay here. I'll look." A Maybach was blocking the road, and standing beside it was someone Felix recognized. It was Asher. Damn it! Would this never end? Felix stepped
Chapter 601
The sun was setting as Felix returned to Canraville. He had planned to meet Xena, but she had been called to an urgent meeting in Yartford at the last minute. Jack called just as he got home. Felix said, "Perfect timing. I just got back and brought some good food. Let's have a drink." Jack's voice was hushed. "Buddy, we thought you'd gone off the grid." Off the grid? Felix was puzzled. "Nancy called you a few times. Why didn't you pick up?" Jack asked.It was true that Nancy had called three times on Felix's way back. But how could he answer her call? The more they interacted, the more pain it would bring her. "Are you with Nancy right now?" Felix could tell Jack was probably calling from the bathroom. "Yeah, it's her birthday today. She wanted to invite you." Felix sighed. "Just tell her you couldn't reach me either. And ask Nessa to stop playing matchmaker. Nancy's a great girl, but I just can't." "I understand. Wrong timing, I guess," Jack relented.Just as he hung
Chapter 602
Another member of the Eight Great Martial Families? That made sense, considering Rosalyn was Jeffrey's friend."Hello, Mr. Zeller." Rosalyn put on no airs when she gave a slight bow with nervous eyes. "Hello. If you're ready, let's begin." Felix had already pinpointed the Dragonspine on her body. The thing was not large, so it was easy to conceal. When he first saw a Dragonspine, Felix had asked Gerald why it was so small. Shouldn't a dragon's spine be massive? Gerald's honest answer was that he did not know either. "Yes. Let's go to the bedroom."After saying that, Rosalyn walked ahead. Felix whispered teasingly to Jeffrey, "Is she your girlfriend?" Though Felilx seemed to be joking, he actually wanted to learn more about her to figure out how to get the Dragonspine. "Don't get the wrong idea, Mr. Zeller. We're just friends. Besides, I'm engaged. I'll be getting married soon," Jeffrey replied.Felix smiled without comment and followed Rosalyn. He closed the door behind th
Chapter 603
The atmosphere in the bedroom was incredibly awkward. Rosalyn kept her head down as she was torn by indecision. Her opponent had been devious enough to land the Glacial Strike right on her bottom. More importantly, it had affected part of her thigh too. This meant that treatment would require exposing not just half but her entire bottom to access the thigh area. "Isn't… isn't there another way?" Rosalyn asked.Felix gave a wry smile. "If there was, I'd have suggested it already. I need to apply acupuncture at the source to completely dispel the rimefrost energy. Of course, it's up to you whether you want to do it." Meanwhile, Felix was still plotting how to get the Dragonspine. He could sense it precisely now. It was located near Rosalyn's waist. After about a minute, Rosalyn took a deep breath and bravely raised her head. "Jeff speaks very highly of you, and healers have professional ethics. I'm just a patient to you anyway. Please proceed with the treatment." Felix nodded.
Chapter 604
Felix would not call himself a great person, but he was not evil either. Any other martial artist capable of the Dragons Destroyer technique would have simply killed Rosalyn for the Dragonspine without hesitation. That was if Rosalyn would not hand over the Dragonspine. But Felix could not do that. This girl bore him no ill will and had treated him with respect. Plus, she was Jeffrey's friend. How could he harm her? After much consideration, lying to her about it seemed to be the only way out. Once he had the Dragonspine, he could find ways to make it up to her later. The burning sensation he had mentioned was actually the Dragonspine's effect. Indeed, it would provide some minor benefits to her training. And it was hardly the deadly threat he had described. "But the technique was passed down by my grandfather. Everyone trains this way. Why would it go wrong?" Rosalyn asked.Felix had anticipated this question. "It's not the technique that's flawed. Something on your body is i
