Three days came and went, and Felix felt a little helpless. "Do you guys have to do this?"Ever since Caesar returned, Ginny and Ryker had been on his heels. Ryker even guarded the door during nighttime, cutting off any chances of his escape. "My dad did this for your safety. Caesar is only allowed five days in Cloud City. Just bear with it for two more days, and he'll be gone by then."Felix felt helpless. He wasn't a fool. Why would he go beyond the city walls and give Caesar the perfect opportunity to kill him?A guard ran in from the yard. "Ms. Longstone, a beggar is at the entrance, asking to see Dr. Zeller. He said his name is Lincoln."A beggar? Ginny was wondering who the person was when Felix got up and said with a smile, "He is my friend. Bring him in here."From the looks of things, Lincoln was here in Cloud City. It wasn't an impossible feat either, but it was an incredibly troublesome one. Ordinary folks like them had to stay in town and travel for over half a day
A dozen villagers had been killed?Felix's face darkened. He made a careless mistake and underestimated just how far Caesar would go to avenge Justus. "Felix, the man said he'd slaughter everyone in Innswood Village if you didn't get back there!"Felix rubbed Lincoln's head and said in a comforting tone, "I'll return to the village first thing in the morning. Don't worry. I won't let anyone die."He was about to get up, but Lincoln didn't let him go. The latter lowered his head and said, "Actually, I know that the man deliberately let me out to tell you about what happened, Felix. "Eventually, I made my way here, but I did it for a selfish reason. The man is terrifyingly powerful, and I know you're not a match for him, but I truly have no other options left."Felix forced a faint smile. "You did the right thing. I'll handle it. After all, it is my responsibility to begin with."When he walked out of his room, Gras and the others were already waiting for him. "Dr. Zeller, this
Leandre?Felix chuckled bitterly. "Does he want me to stay away from the village as well?"Eira nodded. "That's right. Mr. Campbell has been through a lot of stuff in his life. Naturally, he could tell that Caesar didn't intend to let anyone survive. Your presence wouldn't make a difference. They're all dying."Felix had something different to say about this. "Their death is certain if I don't show up, but they will stand a chance to survive if I do."Eira sized him up solemnly. At that moment, it dawned on her that he was unexpectedly noble and heroic. People on Aquamarinus were constantly running schemes and setting each other up. Most of them cared only about themselves. Even so, someone as altruistic as Felix still existed. To drive the point home, he wasn't even doing this for his own family. "I've passed his message on. It's up to you what you want to do with it." Eira was about to leave, but something popped into her mind, and she added, "Does The Recovery Association se
Naturally, Felix saw Dave as well. He immediately stopped his horse. The fact was that he didn't overthink the situation. "Mr. Abbott." Dave's heart was also filled with emotions as he looked at Felix. After all, the latter also cured his family of a complicated condition. "Dr. Zeller, there's nothing I can do for you except to see you off." Be that as it may, Dave knew that Felix's chances of survival were slim at best. This would be the last time he saw him in person. The Green King was actually quite pissed off at Felix. He had made it clear about what was at stake here, and yet Felix still foolishly threw his life away for a bunch of villagers. It was stupidity—plain and simple. "I appreciate it, Mr. Abbott. I'll be taking my leave now," Felix said.Joaquin, who hid in the dark, let out a sigh of relief after Dave saw Felix off. At first, he thought the Green King was actually going to intervene in this matter.Eira was also standing nearby the city gates. If Felix ha
Felix's eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse. He didn't need his domain to tell him that no one in Innswood Village survived the massacre. Every last one of them was in the corpse pile in the decimated house, unjustly granted an undignified death. Caesar remained unaffected, and his eyes grew more frigid as the seconds passed by. "Obviously, it's because they were involved with you. Needless to say, they deserved to die. It's baffling how you actually feel sad for these pieces of trash." Caesar laughed throatily when he was done speaking. It was as if he loved the idea of provoking Felix. But at the next moment, his laughter stopped abruptly. Felix was gone. Caesar searched for Felix frantically, only to find that the latter appeared next to the corpse pile without him knowing. That was some frightening speed. Caesar's gaze froze. He finally understood that Felix wasn't just a doctor. No, the latter was also a martial artist. This explained why Felix had the courage
Caesar kept his eyes on Felix the whole time, but the latter was already standing across from him when he heard the voice. It was as if his attack was nothing but a gentle breeze, and all it did was tousle Felix's sleeves feebly. As Felix boomed, commanding him to kneel, it felt like his very soul was struck, and he couldn't control himself but fell to his knees. "Give up your arms in respect of the dead!"Two loud bursts echoed in the air. Caesar didn't even realize it until after an intense pain shot forth from his hands. To his shock, his arms were blown to pieces. All that was left of them were the stubs at his shoulders. The blood flowing like an opened faucet at both mangled ends of the stubs was the only thing hinting at the terrible situation that had happened. "It can't be. This shouldn't have been possible!"Caesar flew into madness. The Flame Monarch approved of him, and he was one of the Royal Guards. As a Grandmaster Realm fighter, he couldn't believe he couldn
"No matter what I do, I'll never make up something that isn't true! This is truly my ambition, and I only had a little bit of Felix's help. I'll admit it. So I came here sincerely this time, and you can punish me however you wish!" Gras said.Joaquin smiled. "You want me to forgive you and stop going after the Longstones? Sure, as long as you say that Felix planned all of this and had nothing to do with you."Ginny opened her mouth to say something, but she quickly held back. She was raised not to insult the dead. On the side, Ryker also had a bitter look in his eyes. He had come by to surrender, but he had no choice.Otherwise, when Caesar came back, he would definitely throw a tantrum, and by then, no one could help."Mr. Goldstein, those conditions are what I want to negotiate. They have nothing to do with Felix."Seeing Gras' stubbornness, Joaquin was unhappy. "What a stubborn man! You'd rather suffer losses than defile a dead person? Okay, you want to atone for your sins, r
Joaquin slapped the messenger to the ground while shouting, "Bullshit! Felix is a dead man. How could he come back on horseback? If you dare spew nonsense again, I'll cut off your tongue!"The messenger was terrified, quickly covering his face in fear. However, he still muttered, "But several people saw him. It was Felix…"Joaquin was so angry that he went straight up to the messenger and beat him up. Gras, Ginny, and Ryker turned to look at one another. To be honest, they couldn't believe it, either. Even if what the messenger said was true, it was still odd.After all, Felix went against Caesar, who was a martial artist in the Grandmaster Realm. How could he survive that? At the same time, in the Green King Manor, Dave came rushing into the yard, where the Green King was admiring the flowers."Your Excellency, I just got the report that Felix has entered the city."The Green King held a beautiful flower, admiring it without a care. His expression didn't change much despite the
